My Gyftmas piece for the brilliant Zu! (A very overdue post at that. ^^") Honestly, it was a gift in of itself to be assigned to my biggest inspiration - you should've seen my face when I first opened up the assignment email xD Right before the event started, I imagined how lucky it'd be to have you as a Santa. I couldn't even begin to dream of the opposite being the case. This opportunity was beyond an honor! :>
Another huge thanks to the organizers over at @gyftmas2023 for making this possible. I couldn't have asked for a better first Gyftmas part of this fandom. 🎄💕
And here's my post darkcream ship child, here she is finally.
The first thing you might notice is that she's not a skeleton, and welp, if you know your Dreamtale Lore, then you'll know that she takes after her grandmother.
I've never seen a Dream or Nightmare ship child that takes after what would be the twins true form, so I wanted to create that!
Some more info belowww
But with the support of his Fiancé and brother, they were way more prepared this time.
Estrella was, as her sisters had been a Woopsie baby. The family had a lot of mixed feelings upon her discovery, especially Dream. If you remember Dream's history, he was terrified of things repeating.
Caring for a newborn along with the still sick twins was difficult, but thankfully, Estrella was born very healthy. Though, when she didn't form a skeleton shell like her sisters, her parents were concerned.
They definitely get weird looks from people when they explain that she's their kid, despite the fact she looks nothing like her parents on an outsider's POV.
Neither Dream nor Nightmare really remembered what their mother looked like, but for both of them, it was a difficult thing to associate with her. Nightmare got over this fast, as he knows what rejection based on something you're born with feels like.
Dream is still struggling to connect with the new baby, but after last times events, Cross is patient and hopeful that a connection will form.
And of course, both Celest and Luna love their baby sister!
Happy birthday @zu-is-here ! Alittle birthday gift for you, based off the conversation we had in the dms though, i decided to make this one tumbler appropriate! Hope you enjoy! And enjoy your day my good friend! Hope its a wonderful birthday.
