A piece (or something) where Killer and Ccino confront each other.
I don’t know if Nightmare was in a relationship with Ccino before, during, or after knowing Killer, and idk if Killer even knows who Ccino is. But Color brings them to Ccino’s cafe, and they sense something in one another. A feeling, dread, negativity. A mark Nightmare left on both of them. A deep scar. a permanent wound.
They recognize it immediately.
Maybe they know each other, maybe they don’t. But they talk.
Maybe not right then, but they do. About Nightmare. They talk for a long time about him. They share stories and experiences and for a moment, they’re not alone.
Yes, they have Color and Dream and Blue and many others to talk about and support them, but they have each other. They have someone else who knows what it’s like to be loved by Nightmare. To be chosen by him. To be claimed by him. Their experience isn’t identical, but the feelings are all the same. It’s something no one else knows, an experience no one else can know. Someone else can relate it to a bad relationship, a toxic one, a manipulative one, an abusive one. A parent, a romantic partner, a friendship, a working relationship. But it’s not the same. It’s similar, but it’s far from the same. And Killer and Ccino are the only ones who understand that.
Maybe nothing happens between the two, maybe something does. But after that moment, they know they are not alone.
