Subject-to-subject between the characters.	A,  A,  S,  S,  S	Basic conversation pace.	Dream seems comforting with no rough or severe lines. Yet his word bubbles are a different shape.

The top right panel with the character's word  bubbles are different than everyone else. Dream's word bubbles are changed to circular.
