[Something strange happens to their surroundings as they move as well - the cold cyberspace blocks become less blocklike and more buildinglike, until they're slanted, wobbly, off-kilter approximations of Ned's neighborhood. They still have words slathered all over them, but it's not just Ned's blog posts now, but other words from his memory - things his parents have said, things he's read about, reports he's written for school...

When city streets give way to dry desert - is every grain of sand a tiny letter? - and floating pyramids, it's rather abrupt. Ned skids to a stop, blinks at them, then turns around - only to be met with a wide, empty horizon and glaring, open sky. The city and its buildings are gone.

Well, okay then. He turns back and steps cautiously towards the pyramids, reaching out to absentmindedly place a hand on one.]

These are all from that triangle guy...

[donotsummon]

Ain't it great to be crazy~

[Suddenly, a voice echoes behind Ned. A bizarre-sounding voice that reverberates with a distinctly unearthly, non-human quality.]

Ain't it great to be nuts like YOU~!

[It continues it's whimsical singing as the voice seems to surround the boy. It becomes more clear that it's male, but who, or what, does it belong to?]

Silly and foolish all day long~

[Finally, in front of the pyramids - and in front of Ned - there is a burst of blue flame, and the visitor in this mental world appears to the dreamer.
A floating, glowing yellow triangle, actually not much bigger than the child, with a single cyclopean eye. While he isn't completely flat he has little dimension, but enough for small black limbs and a tall top hat to float above his "head." The lower half of his body is patterned like gold bricks, and he wears a bowtie to match his dapper hat.
Perhaps the best way to describe his appearance overall, even in a dream, is strange, silly, cute, and creepy all at the same time.]

Ain't it great to be crazy~!
AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

[Though the creepy part is undeniably elevated by a laugh that's truly like something not of this world.]

[oneirological]

[Ned looks around trying to find the source of the singing, then jumps back with a startled yelp as the triangle creature bursts into existence before him. The laugh also gets a bit of a flinch because wow, that echo really carries. His curiosity wins out in the end, though, as he looks Bill up and down warily.]

Who are you? And how do you know Mom and Dad's song?

[Not what. Who.]

[donotsummon]

[The creature floats a little closer to Ned, while no longer sing-songy he still sounds very exuberant.]

I'm the triangle guy! It's me! I'm the guy!

[He extends out his hand to shake.]

Name's Bill Cipher, and it's a pleasure to meet you face-to-face, Spiral!

[So there's the answer to your first question, Ned. Unfortunately he seems to be ignoring the second for now.]

[oneirological]

Well, you ARE a triangle, so I guess that makes sense.

[Well, this guy... triangle... thing... person is pretty weird, but he looks more silly than scary and isn't trying to terrorize Ned. And he's being polite, if you don't count the obnoxious singing and appearing in a burst of flame! Ned still hesitates a bit out of caution, but takes Bill's hand and shakes.]

Nice to meet you, Mr. Cipher. But my name's not Spiral, it's Ned!
