Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
GRAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH👹👹👹
Bill and Kryptos
When it comes to both of them, especially in the AU, they have a history that goes all the way back to flatland. Kryptos being older than him by just a few years as well-
Kryptos, in the most TLDR was I can put it, is someone who Bill escaped to as an escape, a way to get away from his parents since they were less than empathetic in the grand scheme of things.
Now, Bill wouldn’t admit then, or now that he relies on Kryptos for more things than one, but his pride gets the best of him. Kryptos was a professor then, thanks to his technical 4 sided build, even if being by definition an irregular. He was a teacher in private to Bill, teaching him things usually his class of shape would never get to learn (Being an equilateral and merchant by proxy.) Allowing him to learn things even considered taboo by nature, that of the third dimension. Contained within books that once belonging to the circles, Kryptos allowed Bill to access those ideas, which Bill proceeded to hyperfixate if not obsess over horribly.
Bill became enamored and filled with the desire to leave, escape. To the point where Kryptos began to worry, he understood Bill at this point, his wants his desires to leave flatland and tell it to fuck off, but what he’s learnt is that the methods they found were only reckless, time and space destroying even by the equations he’s found.
But as he told this to Bill, he simply waved it off, but not without Kryptos noticing his more antsy nature as… they built a portal very similar to a certain one most would know. And like Fiddleford to Ford, couldn’t help but want to stop the project in risk of their more risk taking friend…
But it’s not like Kryptos could stopped what happened after. He leaves for only some time only for their actions to be reported and as he rushed back to the lab where they were making it- It was too late as Bill had pushed the button by then and was sucked right in.
Sucking in what unstable energy it held, his genetically unstable and malleable body deforming and taking it in like a sponge and breaking his mind in the process.
Kryptos watched in horror, as his friend was changed, and a rift began to form and destroy their world where their portal once stood.
