I’m assuming the post [linked above] is supposed to be the moment Knickknack realizes that the ghost situation with Flux is real!!! That’s so good honestly…

(Sorry it’s rushed ajdbsjjfs I NEEDED to get this out;;; also Flux looks really small but I assure you Knickknack is just very jacked lmao Flux is taller by a landslide)

Jandjwnduej I’m having fun with our little universe!!!

Please forgive my old southern lady she’s just skeptical 😭 but now she is VERY MUCH a believer so don’t worry Flux 🥂 Knickknack is probably extremely protective and defensive of Flux after this, even being a little mean to the ghosts at times;;
