Fun Facts about Out Of Bounds AU Reality and Sabre (and Galaxy)!
So, I'm not sure if I've already said this or not, but in this au, Reality accidentally split the account between him and Sabre instead of taking it. So, they both have some kind Reality's powers, and they both have the ability to leave the server. Except, the only issue, is that they're stuck outside the server. They're both "out of bounds", if you will.
The chains they both have on them are because of the shared account.
Technically, this means that Galaxy ALSO has a part of the account since he's fused with Illusion. They tried to separate him from Illusion, but let's just say that doing so didn't end well, as he's also bound to them, so they stay as Reality instead.
As Reality, Galaxy isn't as locked away as Illusion would like. Their voices overlap and Galaxy has full control over the top set of eyes they have (the third one is shared between the two of them). Galaxy is forced to say whatever Illusion tries to say, but he can change the tone and volume of his own voice to whatever he wants
Yes, Galaxy still yaps about wanting sandwiches and other foods while stuck with Illusion. At first, it drove Illusion half insane, having to deal with Sabre AND his creator bugging him constantly. That is, until Sabre locked in and started being helpful (/silly).
What actually happened was that Sabre found out that by touching Reality, he can take half of any pain he's feeling. He can't control that, it's just whenever they touch each other, the pain kinda bluetooths. Before this, he didn't think that the steves could ACTUALLY feel pain. Sure, they expressed being tired or hurt, but Sabre just thought that they were just exaggerated how many hearts they had left. But when he actually felt HALF of the pain of one of Reality's migraines, he realized that they can actually feel and their feelings are real.
Now knowing that what he's dealing with wasn't just an expressive, highly advanced bug in his game, he started to actually take things seriously. He still was kinda stupid though, but spending enough time with Reality helped with that. He regrets hurting everyone now, having thought that they were NPCs and now feeling guilty over causing genuine harm.
Illusion is still affected whenever Galaxy feels upset by the way, he just isn't forced to do anything anymore. Galaxy, now having watched firsthand how much it hurts Illusion to be controlled like that and having been in his shoes (quite literally), has made an effort to tone down his... everything. He's still annoying at times, but he's trying not to hurt his son.
