Mythical Mimicry

Summary:

Shattered had ruled over his multiverse for ages, having long since plunged the world into a neverending pool of toxic positivity that fed him well.

But one day, he was betrayed-overthrown and banished to a different multiverse, never to return. Well, that was fine! He could just make a new empire! He-

Wait, he just..did he just stab his counterpart-

Oh. Oh, shoot, he'd just killed this world's Dream.

These characters are not mine!

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Chapter 1: A/N (inconspicuously important)

Chapter Text

Muahahaha! New fic!

So basically, this started as an idea in my discord server, which I want to write! I doubt this will be as long as my other fics, but I have no idea as of yet.

Headcanon list:

1. Anyone can learn to open portals if they learn.

2. Dream and Nightmare cannot shapeshift in this one! (Sad I know)

3. Characters can lie. Well, some of them can ;)

4. Shattered's goop comes off in the shower lol.

5. Shattered presides over toxic positivity, not negativity. He can take in any emotion because he's special, but toxic positivity fuels him the most.

6. Inaccurate portrayals of mthological creatures.

7. Shattered and Dream are different people. Nightmare and corrupted Nightmare are different people. This will be explained more in-depth in chapter one.

8. That's it? I think? For now? Maybe more later.
