This is easily the most important mission I've ever been on in my entire life. In order to keep things secret, I recruited only the most qualified to help me in my plans, in the Dreamscape so few could snoop in and find out.

Zeal, his sheer muscle could keep anything in check.

Grist, for life insight and idea generating.

Kit, sneaky and smart, if anything goes off the rails, they're sure to see it early. Also they're my sugar berry pie and I love them.

With this team, there's no question we'll succeed. Succeed in what? Succeed in making Bodrukk n' Fen a happy couple, of course! After I stumbled upon the sweetest dream I ever did see, I couldn't just... LET IT STAY A DREAM, right? It's totally within the realm of reality, it's not like I'm breaking my Dream Rites to keep people APART or anything, just push two very deserving souls towards each other.

Totally ethical.

Anyway, I gave us a week of planning and setup to make sure things go smoothly. Grist and Kit found out some of Fen n' Bodrukk's favorite hangout spots and things to do, while Zeal was forwarded the information and cleared out each respective area. All I had to do, was make the dinner reservations, get those two a day off for once in their long-working lives, and get them to start hanging out together *during* their day off. Oranges, of course, was on skywatch for anything that might interrupt things long-distance wise.

Getting the kids a babysitter was easy enough, Serene was happy enough to do us all a solid. And courtesy of me and Kit already being out on a "date", we managed to have them date-crash! It was... Awkward, I'm admittedly not used to being out on a fake date, but I think it went well! Window-shopping went well enough, and Fen picked up the dress I had Cyrus make~! (It went especially nicely when Kit asked to Heartbond with me!)

After we broke off since we had "different dinner reservations", Bodrukk n' Fen were having quite the time exchanging small gifts to each other (a locket for them, a tankard for him) and spending time out on the beach.

... I felt especially bad, considering we had Zeal clearing out the forests this whole time. The only thing that seemed to go awry was when... A time bubble of sorts, carved into the ground, swallowed up our favorite lovebirds and began to accellerate their aging! We managed to shut it off without any issue, but that's something I'd like to investigate later with Viktor, given he has the time.

Once the magic was shut off, everything continued as if that bubble never popped up. It was after that, that we decided our work was done.

I could see it in Bodrukk n' Fen's eyes, there's no question. If I could go back in time and do all of this again, I'd do it just to see them happy every single time.
