"See here?" Silver asked, holding up a comicbook. On its cover was a wolf, dressed in a black trenchcoat with a nice fedora atop his head. "That's me, y'know! Or at least, that's what people SAY I am.... Fictitious character an' all, but I'm the real-deal version o' it!"

The green slime narrowed its eyes as it craned its body upward for a closer examination of the illustration. "Mein berry wulf, when first we met you were blue and on the cusp of going permanently of round fashion!"

"Yeah, Hyde, ya met me after I started drinkin' that nuka blue stuff!" Silver felt his cheeks flush purple. "How was I supposed ta know I'd get permanently stuck as a ball o' juice after I had mah sixth drink?"

"I thought you were always a part of these blueberry people around you. Mein wulf, bist du keine Blaubeere?" Hyde stuck his tongue out as a smile crept on his face.

"Don't I even REMOTELY look like how I used to look in this comic?" Silver whined, trying his best to puff out his chest. To his dismay, this made his head crane into his inflated back, causing his fedora to start falling off. Feeling more flustered now, he slammed a hand down onto his head. "I told ya I'm still a sharp shooter, even after my belly inflated into a blueberry!"

Hyde snickered as he poked his gooey finger into the berry's side, watching the juice-filled body give way to even a slight amount of pressure. "Mein berry says they used to be in-shape? I can't imagine this being true!"

Silver grimaced, but his tail began to wag. "If you'd've asked me four weeks ago, there'd be no doubt that I was the person in the comic."

Hyde looked back at the comic. "If you say so, mein berry wulf!" Letting his body sink back into itself, Hyde continued, "But I hold a grain of salt -- as 'Silver Wolf' is not morbidly round and blue-skinned as you are!"

Silver huffed, looking away from Hyde. "I can't go back y'know."

"Ahh, but I do not mind! I only know you as a blueberry. Wir sind immer noch freunde, ja?" Hyde smiled yet again as he waited for the blueberry's reply.

The blueberry was silent for a moment. "I... never quite had a friend before. Didn't think ya saw me as one."

"Mein berry, I think I prefer you, this 'Silver Wolf', as being round. It suits you better."

Day 7 goes to Sealnard on Twitter.... I misread their prompt. They wanted Sarge and them talking about the DnD game they're playing with little hints at the blueberry character and goo character involved..... My mind interpreted it as "Characters are conversing with each other"... and we got this thing!

(I also have to admit I wanted to draw a blueberry Silver again. Seems he's my go-to for blueberrying now!)
