Chapter Text
"You never loved me, did you?"
It's a simple question, yet the implications leave Techno with a heavy chest. Dreams eyes are cold and calculated as he stares down at Techno, the axe in his hand menacingly baring down on him as Techno feels the blade pressing against his neck.
The snow underneath him is cold, melting slightly as he lays down on it, cloak slowly beginning to absorb the water.
But the coldness sinking into his skin stops when Dream answers.
"No."
It's a simple answer to a simple question and the heavy feeling in Techno's chest is joined by a numbness over his entire body, the cold a distant thought as he stares into Dreams beautiful forest green eyes.
"No one ever could,"
Perhaps it's just the need to rub salt into the wound but Techno can't help but feel that it's just a little uncalled for, to play on fears Techno had admitted to him in their quiet moments alone.
The blade against his throat leaves, as well as Dream's foot on his chest pushing him into the snow, Techno watches him leave, chest heavy and heart broken.
He should have known better than to love a god.
