Summary
George has been publicly dethroned and dismissed by who he thought was his best friend. He wants nothing more than to lick his wounded pride in peace and leave Dream to reap the consequences. It would serve Dream right.
But...more than soothing his own pride and being the pettiest possible version of himself and stopping there, George wants better answers than the bullshit Dream gave him. Dream owes him those answers and George intends to collect before he makes a decision he can't take back.

Summary
George's quest to wring an explanation out of Dream over his dethronement has gotten him this far, with this far being the miraculous, surprising concession Dream made to come home.
With one hurdle jumped, countless others still remain. Including the dreaded reaction of the server to finding out they aren't as broken up as they'd appeared at the time. That's an issue for another day's George, though. Right now, he can set that can of worms aside to focus on how to not just get Dream home but how to get Dream to stay.
Because he certainly hadn't expected to manage the first and what victory he's won will ring hollow if he doesn't manage the second.

Summary
George has managed to achieve the impossible: with a king’s conviction and a tender heart, he brought Dream home and then, the morning after, convinced Dream to stay.
In the days that follow, as he can begin to believe in the permanence of his rewritten future, he basks in Dream’s presence and lazes in a warm, content bubble where the world is narrowed down to the intimacy of trust given and returned.
Even while he greedily hoards Dream’s love, he cannot forget that there is a world outside, too. One which would try to take Dream from him again. And it will come calling sooner than he wants.
But George does not need a crown or a throne to be a king. In pursuit of keeping Dream at his side, he is willing to do whatever he must and remind the server that he is the true threat.
