Work Text:
iden had fallen asleep then woken up in a room that looked similar to a psych ward. How he had gotten there, no clue! To make life easier he decided to gaslight gate keep and girlhood himself into thinking this was a lucid dream. He knew it probably wasn’t but he liked to think it was. That or the parents turned on them and booked everyone into a psych ward, he doubted they would do that. So it was that ward or a lucid dream.
He wobbled over to one of the two doors in his room and tried opening it. He failed to open, not even getting a jiggle form the door, he just got a beep from a card reader.
“Flippity floppoty, can’t even break down the door. The loser who made this room is smart, sadly.” Aiden said aloud. If he was gonna go insane in here might as well talk to himself :3.
“Welp there’s still one other door in here!” He exclaimed with excitement, rushing over to the other door in his room.
Yes he ran into the door, no it didn’t vibrate in it’s hinges.
“What the can of sardines is this door?” He questioned, “this place is fancy if they can make the door not. Jiggle.”
He then tried to twist the doorknob, it opened. Aidennthen let out the most demonic laugh he was able to. Her noticed the security camera in the corner, he hoped whoever was watching him was creeped the hell out.
Swinging the door open with as much force as possible and another menical laugh the door swing open to reveal a bathroom.
“Oh nice, a place to go pee pee and take spooky dookie’s, Mwehhehehehehehehhehehehehehe!”
The bathroom was nice and plain. Absolutely nothing interesting about it, the shower in it had a 3 in 1 shampoo. That’s fun. He decided to step in the shower fully clothed just to make himself wet so if someone came to check on him he was just wet for no reason.
Turning the shower on to its coldest setting he looked around the bathroom, checking to make sure there were no cameras in it. There weren’t. Good.
Once he felt he was wet enough he stepped out the shower, they didn’t give him any towels, welp guess he just had to be wet then, it wasn’t like the towel would do anything anyways.
He walked around the room, saying random words that came to mind in a creepy raspy voice.
“Apple, banana, orange, lemon, lime, grape fruit, garpes, watermelon, kiwi, mango, mango, mango.” He said naming fruits as he walked towards a corner with a dresser. The camera was set up in the opposite corner.
He climbed onto the dresser, using his toes to pry the top drawer open. He hit a Spider-Man like pose and made eye contact with the camera.
“I. Am. Spider-Man.” He said in a Batman voice. Not the right thing but that made it funnier.
“I. Demand. MAGOS! MANGOS! MANGOS! MANGOS! MANGOS!” He began to chant, still posed like spider man and maintaining eye contact with the camera.
Right in the middle of a blood curdling scream for mangoes he heard the door that he couldn’t open open. He snapped his head in its direction.
In the doorway was a person dressed in scrubs with long brown hair tied back in a braided bun, rose gold framed glasses on their face and thin silver hopped earring.
At the sight of another human Aiden let it a “Rehehehehhee” laugh in greeting.
Sadly the nurse looked unfazed, “my name is Alex.” The nurse introduces herself.
“Cool, can you get me face paint?” Aiden interrupted, the bathroom was a blind spot and he needed face paint for his idea.
“Why?” The nurse asked hesitantly.
“I’m going for a look and I need face paint for it.” He said with a devious grin, still standing like spider man. He received a questioning look from Alex before remembering to add something to his request.
“Oh yeah! Can you also get me a Snickers bar?”
“Why?”
“I wanna make a joke!” He said with a smile, tilting his head sideways and promptly falling of the dresser he had been balanced on.
The nurse writhed over to him, offering to help him off the floor. He only swatted her hand away.
“Why are you wet?” The nurse asked, her previous calmness left.
Ha, seems she finally relized he was as the insane one of the group.
“I took a shower.” He explained.
“Fully clothed?”
“Yup.” He said looking her in the eye with a stupid grin.
“Do you want to know what happened and why your here?” The nurse asked him.
“Nope I want my face paint first please and thank you.”
The nurse sighed, “okay.” And began heading for the door.
“Oh, and don’t forget my snickers!” He called out after her, attempting to climb up the wall while waiting for her to come back.
He heard footspets approach from down the halls and turned to face the door and started to do a weird dance. He was standing in a half squat position and waving around like a cloth in the wind might.
The door opened and Alex walked in, with a tray of face paint and a single snickers bar in her hand.
Aiden wiggled up to the nurse and took the items from her.
“Oh yeah! Face paint and a Snickers from me.Alex!” He said wiggling towards the bathroom.
“I’m a man, you know that right?” Alex asked.
“Wait what?” Aiden said, dropping the act and standing up straight and making eye contact with the nurse Alex, who apparently has been a man this whole time.
“Could you not tell from my voice?”
“No I kinda didn’t notice that, I was more focused on your Lucious hair. Sorry broski.” Aiden apologized.
“Thank for the hair comment, I kinda wanna grow it out like your friend Ashlyn’s.”
“Ashlyn’s here?” Aiden said, suddenly very up and person in Alex’s face.
“Yeah, do you want me to explain what happened now?” Alex asked him.
“Bope! I need to get my faces painted first!” He exclaimed, putting the face paint in his mouth and shoving the snickers in his hair like he’s seen someoen in a cartoon do once. He then crawled to the bathroom on all fours and closed the door with his hand while marinating eye contact with Alex.
Once the door was shut Aiden dropped the act, he was now in a area of his room where there were no cameras watching him. He had face paibt and the element of Suprise now.
Oh how much power he had right now.
He took the face paint out of his mouth and put it on the sink. He took the paint brush and began stroking white all over his face. If he was gonna be a clown in a psych ward he might as well own up to it.
He was pretty sure Allen was waiting for him so he should probably be pretty fast with it, but then again it would take some time and if Alex had better shtuff to do he would do it instead of just waiting for some crazy kid to paint his face.
About half an hour later his work was finished. He looked like a damn good clown if he said so himself. He fixed himself behind the door and slowly, keeping his back turned to Alex who was still waiting in the room. He kept his back Thurber as he walked into the door frame and bent backwards, attempting to do a back end. Only to fail and just fall on his back, effectively winding himself.
As he lay on the fooor gasping for breath Alex looked own on him.
“Your a clown?” He asked.
“Yup.” Aiden Tesla ded, very out of breath.
Alex let out a sigh, “are you finally ready to hear about what happened and where your friends are?” Alex asked, exasperated.
“Yeah” Aiden said as he got up. he then turned around, tried to sit up, and ended up laying down facing Alex this time.
Alex then explained that him and his true da were all in a facility because they had a zombie like virus. That’s fun.
“I’d always wanted to be a zombie like that one dude from the zombies Disney movie. Guess my dreams finally get to come true.” He said with a grin.
