I opened my eyes to see a yellow wall. I didn't know how I got there, since last night I was in my bedroom. I looked around and noticed that my body was a little weird. I looked down and saw that I didn't have my pajamas. Instead, my new body was like a yellow ghost, similar to when you cover yourself with a blanket and pretend to be a ghost, but yellow. My hands were like some sort of circular shape with a type of monster mouth on them.
"Huh, what the hell happened to me?" I thought as I started to panic and run around like a chicken with its head cut off. I then spotted someone who looked like me. I stopped and walked towards them. They looked at me but didn't say anything or react to our appearances. They just started walking again, and I followed them.
I followed them until I saw a bunch of others like me. I started to look around, and no one seemed surprised or nervous about how we looked now. "It's so weird how they can act so normal," I thought as I heard some of them talk to each other and there was also cake in the party tables. I got close to the cake, and it looked like a normal cake. One of the strange creatures pulled out a knife and looked at me.
Creature - *cutting a piece of cake* "Want some~?"
I nodded, and the creature served it on a plate and gave it to me. I thanked it, and the creature walked away. I was about to eat the piece of cake when I noticed something strange in it - a piece of what looked like a human finger. I didn't eat it and just left it there. I then went exploring and found that I was in a normal party room, one that seemed familiar but you are never able to place where you have seen it.
While walking around, I heard a female scream. I went towards the sound and saw many other yellow creatures surrounding the woman. I initially thought they were helping her until they began to attack her. I moved towards them to help, but it was too late. One of them started to "eat" pieces of the dead body with its hand-mouth things. I was horrified and turned away, deciding to stay away from people or the creatures.
After a few minutes of walking, I stumbled upon some almond water. I grabbed it, and it seemed that my new body had like an inventory on the inside. I found more almond water and bread, which I kept in case I wanted to eat later. As I continued looking around, I heard some noises. I turned the corner and saw a teen with someone who appeared to be a man but was wearing a black hoodie and a blue mask with a sad face on it. I focused on the person in the blue mask, feeling my "face" turn red and my "heart" beat faster. "Is this love at first sight?" I thought, determined to protect them both and make the blue mask guy love me.
I approached them, but the blue mask guy quickly turned around, looked at me, and pointed a spear at me. Panicked, I put my hands up in a surrender pose. The blue mask guy gestured for the teen to go to another room, but I knew there were other yellow creatures there, so I ran to stop them. Unfortunately, I felt something pierce me, and I saw the mask man with the other end of the spear.
He let go, grabbed the teen's hand, and ran towards the other room. I took the spear out and followed them. They stopped upon seeing the other yellow creatures, and I positioned myself in front of them, protecting and covering them. I wave at the creatures and they waved back and left for another room. I then turn around and gave them the almond water and bread from my inventory. The teen quickly grabbed the bread and before eating it, they split the bread and searched for something in it after some seconds they nodded and started eating, while the blue mask guy only took the almond water.
Feeling happy, I twirled around to show my joy. The blue mask guy tensed up, while the teen had a happy expression.
Teen - *smiling* "Look, mister, I think this Partygoer is a nice one."
I stopped and looked at the teen, tilting my head. "Partygoer, is that what I am?" I thought as I continued to observe the teen.
Blue Mask - *tense* "I don't think so, kiddo. Maybe it's best if we go. I don't think its kindness will last long."
They started to walk away, and I followed them, not wanting them to get into trouble or wanting them to go alone. The blue mask constantly looked back at me, urging the teen to walk faster. As I walked behind them I realized that I was bigger than both of them and a little larger than the other Partygoer. We arrived at a door, which the blue mask opened, and they both entered. I looked around before entering after them.
I don't know how, but everything felt like it was in slow motion. My body moved towards the monster, feeling every detail as I tore off its head. "HOW DARE HE?!" I thought as I continued to rip apart every part of its yellow body. I then turned to the other Partygoers, tearing them to shreds as well. My only thought were, "HOW DARE THEY TRY TO HARM MY LOVER!" Despite their attempts to fight back, my rage made me far stronger. Maybe it was caused by my rage or something but I got bigger and more strong.
They continued to fight me, but soon realized they couldn't defeat me and started to retreat. After they ran away, I tried to calm down, but my body refused to listen as I continued to see red. However, I managed to control myself to avoid attacking them, knowing that it would jeopardize the love of my life and lead to my demise.
Slowly, I made my way towards my Partypooper, with several Party Destroyers pointing their guns at me. "I want to hold my Partypooper, maybe that will calm me down," I thought, feeling exhausted and weak. I reached my Partypooper and hugged him gently, causing him to tense up before he finally huged me back. As I relax, I suddenly lost consciousness.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a purple ceiling illuminated by a pinkish light. I looked around and saw my Partypooper hugging me. "Did he stay hugging me the whole time I was asleep? So cute!" I thought, trying not to move. Not seeing Party Destroyer, I relished the alone time with my lover, feeling happy.
Turning to face my lover, I noticed he still wore his mask. I wondered about the beauty behind it but stopped myself from invading his privacy, continuing to watch his chest rise and fall.
After what felt like an hour or so, he woke up and looked at me. I hugged him closer, caressing his back, but he sat up and gazed at me. I held his hand, finding it a bit difficult but managing. "He is so cute. Wait, is he crying?" I wondered as I saw tears fall from under his mask.
My Partypooper - *sobbing* "You're alive,"
I nodded and hugged him, comforting him.
My Partypooper - "You were asleep for so long, and you were very injured. Everyone thought you were dead, but I knew you wouldn't leave me."
I rested my head on his and nuzzled him. "I wish I could talk right now," I thought as he sobbed.
My Partypooper - "While you were asleep, I realized something. I ... I do like you."
Shaking with happiness, I looked at him in disbelief.
My Partypooper - Calm down, I still don't know for sure but, I, umm I'm sure I can give you a chance *hugs me* I love you”
I couldn't believe it, 'He said he loved me, I want to also say that I love him' I thought as I quickly tried to just say it, I continued to hug him and tried so hard to just say those words, say that iconic sentence, to be able to respond to his love, for him to hear me say it back, for me to just say "I love you”
Both me and him looked at each other in shock; I just shook with happiness and repeated those words, over and over again, until he put his forehead to mine, which made me calm down, and I nuzzle my face on him, then I looked at him and said "I love you ♡”
Today was a normal day. My dear Partypooper and I were going through levels, searching for any wanderers. In reality, I didn't care about them; I just wanted Partypooper to be happy and safe.
We passed through a door and were met with a hallway. The floor was covered in grass and flowers of many colors. "I have never been here. What a beautiful place," I thought as I looked around. This level was a type of corridor that seemed infinite, with white walls and windows showing a very bright light. But what excited me the most were the flowers. "Great, now I can give him flowers," I thought as I turned around and saw him walking away.
I quickly went towards him, grabbed his hand, and led him back towards the corridor. He protested and tried to pull away, but I didn't let go. We eventually reached the hallway and started walking. He gave up and also walked by my side.
I felt so happy. "Finally, a proper date," I thought as I saw the flowers bloom even more beautifully, with some even displaying more vibrant colors. We both stopped and sat down to rest for a while. Carefully, I picked some flowers and gave them to him.
Partypooper - “T-thanks.”
I could tell that he was very happy and embarrassed too. We lay down on the middle of the corridor and I placed his head on my chest. He got more comfortable, and I felt his body relax.
Partypooper - “Did you know that this level is unique? Not only is it safe and filled with flowers, but wanderers can be here with their loved ones, causing a phenomenon that makes the flowers bloom depending on their love, *looks down* like right now.”
I looked at the flowers and noticed how all of them were in full bloom, with some new ones even sprouting. I saw several roses and sunflowers growing. Suddenly, I felt a shift in the level. I quickly covered my lover, in case it was something bad, and after a few moments, he sinal for me go move, I stepped back to look around. It was now an infinite field of flowers.
Partypooper - “Wow.”
I turned around to see what had caught my lover's attention. There stood a big tree with the trunk shaped like a heart at the top. I looked at my lover, and he gazed back at me. I took his hands. “I love you,” I said and kissed the top of his mask.
I then carried him towards the tree. Once we reached the base, I sat down with him on my lap, and we both rested without worrying about anything. In that moment, it was just us.
I couldn't find anything, so I was feeling down. That's when I had a great idea. I started writing on the paper, "Well, since I didn't find anything, I guess I'll just have to stick by your side and never leave!! ♡" I showed it to my Partypooper, and he looked away. 'Even if I can't see his embarrassed face, he is still so cute!' I thought as my mood improved.
My Partypooper then took out a yellow ribbon and tied it around his left hand with the help of Party Destroyer. 'I can't believe how cute he can get! Wow, he put that ribbon so I could recognize him, and it's yellow, the same color that I now am!' I thought as I started to swirl around in happiness.
Party Destroyer - *looking at my Partypooper* "I can't believe you put something on you so they can recognize you."
My Partypooper - *happy* "Well, I think there's nothing wrong with that. Besides, maybe I'm starting to catch feelings, who knows?"
I stopped and looked at him, then on a piece of paper, I started to draw a heart. It came out kind of wonky, but it still worked. I gave it to him and went back to swirling around, while the teen also joined in. Suddenly, we heard a woman scream. I panicked and ran toward my Partypooper, positioning myself in front of him.
The woman - *pointed at me, shouting* "Someone, please help!! There is a Partygoer!"
I looked behind me and saw nothing but my Partypooper. I realized she was pointing at me, and I was the reason for her scream. I lowered myself, but she was still in a panic until another Partypooper came and took her away. She was still screaming and panicking. I looked at Party Destroyer and wrote on my paper, "I wasn't doing anything, I was only doing my little happy dance." I showed it to him.
Party Destroyer - "I know, I'm not blind."
I noticed my Partypooper starting to slouch. 'Maybe he is tired,' I thought. I got behind him, carefully picked him up bridal style, and held him close to my chest.
My Partypooper - *embarrassed* "H-Hey, put me down."
I shook my head, walked toward the room we were in when we first arrived, and saw there was nowhere to rest. I sat down, put my Partypooper on my lap, and let his head rest on my chest.
The teen - "Aww, see, Mr., they do love you."
My Partypooper nodded and stayed where I positioned him, gradually relaxing in my arms. This almost made me shake with happiness, but I stopped myself. Both the teen and Party Destroyer got comfortable near us. I strangely didn't feel tired or sleepy, but I still lay my head on my Partypooper and tried to sleep, while everyone else rested.
After some hours, they all woke up, but I had gotten so used to my Partypooper being in my arms that I didn't let him go.
My Partypooper - *embarrassed* "Please put me down, I'm well-rested now."
I only shook my head, stood up, and walked out of the classroom.
My Partypooper - "I need to find more wonderers and help them. I also need to go to the level fun to see if no wanderer is there."
I stopped and put him down, then I took out my piece of paper that I was running low on. I wrote, "Please don't go to that level, I don't want anything to happen to you I'll go in your place :'(" I showed it to him, and he shook his head.
My Partypooper - "No, wonderers will think you are evil and that you are trying to kill them."
"Then I'll go with you, after all, I said that I would follow you everywhere," I wrote. Without waiting for his answer, I quickly took him in my arms again. He tried to get off but gave up. I continued walking, wanting him to drink something since I hadn't seen him eat or drink anything. The teen had left to get food from another classroom, while Party Destroyer stayed with us. I saw other Party Destroyers walking around and some leaving, "Wait how will I recognize my good friend?" I thought then I looked at Party Destroyer, and signaled with my head to the ribbon, which I knew he understood what I meant.
Party Destroyer - "Don't worry, you will know when it's me."
I tilted my head, wondering what he meant, when I noticed that all the others didn't get close to me. "Maybe because he is the only one willing to stay by my side, unlike the others," I thought as I put my Partypooper on a chair and went to get the almond water. Then I brought it to him.
My Partypooper - "Thanks."
"No matter how many times I think about it, he always looks so cute no matter what he says or does," I thought as I swirled in happiness. I suddenly stopped as I felt that something bad might happen, but I tried to ignore that feeling. "Wait, since I was able to get here, can other Partygoers also get here?" I thought, as we suddenly heard several wonderers and guns going off. I looked behind me and saw some Partygoers coming out of what looked like a portal, "Dammit I shouldn't have thought that!!". My Partypooper and Party Destroyer both quickly got up and sprang into action. My Partypooper helped wonderers while Party Destroyer shot them down.
In a swift movement, a Partygoer got close to my Partypooper, and everything seemed to slow down as I watched the monster's hands-mouth getting closer to his mask.
We arrived at a school hallway. I looked around and noticed that both the blue-masked individual and the teenager had entered a classroom. I followed them inside and observed that the room resembled a typical classroom, albeit slightly damaged and messy, yet still somewhat cozy.
The teenager promptly settled near the wall with a blanket, that he grabbed from a table, made themselves comfortable, and closed their eyes. Meanwhile, the person in the blue mask sat near a chair, gazing at me.
Blue Mask - *in a serious tone* "So, what do you want?"
I simply gazed at him, tilted my head, and after a moment of contemplation, shook my head in response.
Blue Mask - "I know you Partygoers can talk."
I attempted to speak but found myself unable to produce any sound. I gestured with my hands, pointing at myself and crossing my arms in an X shape.
Blue Mask - "So you can't talk, huh? That's strange."
I nodded and tried to approach him, but he quickly stood up and tensed, causing me to retreat and maintain my distance. Although I felt a pang of sadness, realizing my crush didn't reciprocate my feelings, I swiftly composed myself. Glancing around, I spotted paper and a pen on the teacher's desk. I seized them and wrote, "I want to be your friend, and maybe more ♡." I displayed the message to him, awaiting his reaction.
Blue Mask - *surprised* "Wait, what? Um... I don't think either of those things would be possible."
As he rose and positioned himself protectively in front of the teenager, expecting a potential attack after rejecting me, I viewed this as an opportunity to persist. I quickly wrote again, "Don't worry, I won't harm either of you, but I will try to win your heart ;) ♡♡." I presented the note to him, and he resumed his seat, appearing contemplative this time, tilting his head. After a few moments, he nodded, and I spun around happily.
At that moment, the door opened, and another individual in a blue mask entered, brandishing a spear at me. I swiftly retreated to a corner, while my blue-masked companion stepped in front of me.
My Blue Mask - "Relax, they're not hostile like the others."
Blue Mask Individual - "How can you be so sure? They might be deceiving us."
Feeling offended by his accusation, I hastily wrote, "I would never deceive the love of my life!" I showed him the message proudly, while the other blue-masked person tilted his head in confusion.
Blue Mask Individual - "Huh?"
My Blue Mask - *sighs* "It's a long story."
My blue-masked companion proceeded to explain the situation to the skeptic, who eventually relented and refrained from attacking. Approaching my blue mask, I handed him a paper with a heart drawn on it. He accepted it, placing it in his pocket. Overjoyed, I twirled around, while the other blue-masked individual observed us with surprise.
I then noticed the teenager stirring awake and heard footsteps approaching from beyond the classroom doors. Attempting to shield my blue mask, I was stopped by him, as he opened the door to reveal several other blue-masked individuals in the hallway. Upon sighting me, they swiftly brandished their weapons, with some red-masked individuals bearing firearms, intensifying the situation. I froze, that's when my blue knight in shining armor saved me, oh, and the teenager too.
Both of them positioned themselves in front of me, offering brief explanations to the group. Although the blue masks lowered their weapons, the red-masked individuals remained hostile, guns still pointed at me.
My Blue Mask - *addressing the red masks* "Party Destroyers, please lower your weapons. This Partygoer means no harm."
Red Mask Individual - *still pointing* "This type of foolishness, from all of you, Partypoopers, caused our defeat in the first Fun War."
As they continued to argue, I pondered on the name "Partypooper" for my crush, wondering if he had a proper name. In the end, my hands-mouth were covered, a scarf was placed around my neck for identification, and a Party Destroyer stood nearby. Unfazed, I retrieved paper and pen, writing, "Thanks for rescuing me :D ♡♡♡♡," albeit clumsily like a child, since I now had these cloth covering my hands. With effort, I showed it to my beloved.
My Partypooper - *nodding* "Well, you saved us before, so now we're even."
“Wait but he had previously save me from another Partypooper, hmm could this mean that he is catching feelings?“ I thought as I tried really hard to think about it.
Party Destroyer - *after reading the note* "Why the hearts?" *glancing at my Partypooper*
My Partypooper swiftly turned around, a gesture I interpreted as embarrassment. Without hesitation, I wrote again, "Because I love him, and only him!! ♡ :D," proudly displaying it to him.
Party Destroyer - "How will you distinguish him from all the other Partypoopers?"
I suddenly froze, overwhelmed by panic, causing me to move around frantically like a headless chicken. “I never considered that. Not even a name could help since I can't speak!“ I pondered, as both of them observed my escalating panic.
Teen - "Maybe you could mark him, similar to how they marked you."
Upon hearing this suggestion, I ceased my frantic movements and directed my attention to the teenager. I wrote, "You are a genius," before embarking on a search for something to distinguish my Partypooper. Meanwhile, the Party Destroyer simply shook its head, while my Partypooper gazed back at me.
