    Summary

    Sammy G. Samuels' benefactor causes her nightmares to get in her mind and manipulate her, and the Dream guys step in to fight those nightmares off and give her nice pleasant dreams instead.

    The Dream guys can walk the light world, just like lightners can walk the dream world at night, although none of them ever belong...

    As more and more unfurls with each nightmare being worse than the last, Spamton's beliefs start to waver. Sammy is forced to confront parts of herself that she's been running from. They begin to figure out that their fates are more intertwined than they could have ever imagined.

    Will they ever find the freedom that they seek?

    ....................................
    What started as a fun discord side roleplay with my buddy yabs (@/cach0po on Instagram) to combine our spamtenna aus became something much more epic and complex than we anticipated. It's awesome.

    Summary

    “You, uh. Sure know your way around a CRT,” Tenna says. “I didn’t know you were a mechanic.”

    “I sell cars,” Spamton had replied, back when Tenna was addressing him. “If you talk [Big] with nothing to back it up, people think you’re a hack.”

    “Well,” Tenna said, “are you?”

    Spamton sprayed the compressed air into his smug face.

    That would have been preferable to drowning in insulation foam and getting licked clean by a clown (“HANDS OFF THE [[Officil Merchandise]]!!”). Jevil’s nuisance was missed as soon it was over though, because then all he had was the realization that that was his last chance. To do what, he isn’t sure. To demand an apology. To explain why he ran away. To scream at him. To break that stupid screen himself, just to get it over with, and crawl inside there never to emerge. Then at least they’d be together.

    ____

    An unseen, silent, approximately 4 foot tall individual takes it upon himself to fix the fallen Lord of the Screens. To raise a middle finger to the mysterious phone-calling, prophecy-defining benefactor who screwed him over and made him a living puppet, of course. No other reason.

    Summary

    Tenna’s first reaction upon seeing Spamton again, which was to spray him with foam, should’ve been an early warning sign of how their relationship would go in Castle Town. In simple words: not good.

    With Tenna forced to come to terms with his loss of power and Spamton eager to take advantage—adding on years of separation, misunderstandings, and pent up anger—it wasn’t a surprise that things turned out this way.

    So, with all that in mind, why in the world did they keep coming back to each other?

    Summary

    Spamton accidentally falls out of the inventory after the events of Chapter 3. Alone and without anybody to help him in Castle Town, where mainly those who still know him aren't friendly to him, Spamton finds a recently-recruited television who doesn't recognize him whatsoever and chooses to use this to his advantage.
