Summary
Dream backs up a couple steps, his body numb from either the wind chill or the lack of blood flowing from his broken heart. His mind curses him, curses his body as it stumbles over nothing, curses his eyes for tearing up behind the spare mask Techno had brought for him, curses his voice as he stutters out an “okay.” He manages to thank Techno with a clear voice, toeing the edge of happiness, but he is anything but.
He feels angry, he feels sad, he feels cold, he feels one second away from teetering off the edge of never-coming-back. He can’t direct any of these emotions towards Techno, though, no matter how hard he tries, because Techno is kind. Techno is kind to everyone who needs it, even if they’ve hurt him in the past. Techno helps children left out in the cold, and named every dog in his Hound Army because he didn't want one of them to feel left out, and he talked fondly about his potato plants in prison as if they were sentient beings.
Techno is kind to people, and animals, and plants, so surely Dream is none of those things, right?
Surely Techno finally figured out that Dream is the monster everybody says he is, right?
Right.
Or: Dream escaped the prison but left his humanity behind
