Comedy of Errors

Chapter 5: Radical destruction

Summary: Error plays to win in their game of tag

"Hi Bl- whoa, what happened?" Ink said utterly surprised as he appeared from Blues summons.

Blue gives a dramatic groan. "Error blew up our living room is what!"

"WHAT? Why I thought he was well kinda cool with UnderSwap now"

"Oh, he is trust me."

"Then why does it look like he Gaster Blastered the door right off its hinges!"

"Because... He did." Blue started guiltily and quickly went on to defend Error. "But it wasn't really his fault. I mean yeah it was his blaster, but that's how their game always ends, And Fresh! Fresh should have known better than to be inside when Error was that close. So really-"

"Wait wait wait what was Fresh doing here?" Ink said totally lost.

"He was with Error. They were playing, Tag."

Ink just blInked. Then he gave a humorless laugh. "They were playing tag." Ink stated in unbelief. Not because he didn't believe it happened but because someone else has seen the oddity. That time Error had left him in the middle of a battle to chase Fresh, he wasn't sure what to think of it and had no one to ask as he was the only one there, but now Blue says he's seen it too.

"Uh-huh, usually it doesn't end with Error blowing up the house."

"Okay, but why, why were they playing tag!" Ink demanded, wanting answers to this insane puzzle.

"Because they're best friends." Blue smiled.

Ink froze. Error doesn't have a best friend. he thought. Error glitches up or gets annoyed whenever Ink jokes about them being besties.

"Y-you can't tell."

"What happened to your door, how did they go from tag to destroying your house?" Ink asked changing the subject instead.

Blue thought Ink was jealous. Although he shouldn't be it's pretty obvious that Error has Ink pretty high on his friendship list too. He just doesn't show it in the typical friendship way. Oh well, he'll have to figure it out on his own.

"well," Blue started wondering how he should tell it. "Error was supposed to be here for his knitting lessons."

"knitting lesson?"

Blue gave him a look for interrupting. "yes knitting lessons. I was waiting for him in the living room with Papyrus; who was sleeping and refused to go to his room and sleep because he didn't want me to be alone with Error." Blue said working himself into a state before sighing when Ink gave a look that clearly meant Papyrus had a point.

"Stop it, He's not that bad! Anyways Error was already 2 minutes late and I was starting to think he was going to ditch me but then we heard loud noises coming from upstairs before we could check it out Fresh came sliding down on the banister.

No tricks in the house Papyrus said casually before sitting back down and getting cozy again.

Fresh just shrugged it all off and went straight for the door but upon opening it he came face to face with Error." Blue chuckled the look on Fresh's face and the crude swear word on his glasses were priceless. "Error said some stupid joke and then blasted him to dust, right there on our front step!"

Ink snorted yeah that like Error.

"So after yelling at him about playing tag in the house, he didn't really apologize but said he knew someone in Unemployment Tale who could fix this mess in a jiffy but that place was not really the pop-in and ask for a favor type of place," Blue said unsurely but Ink twitched and shivered violently at the mere mention of the place. Blue started laughing. Ink look at him in horror which made Blue laugh harder.

"It's not funny that place is horrible." Ink argued.

Blue tried to stop really did but it's funny because they had the same reaction. Except for Error almost glitch himself out. An Ink looks like he's on the edge of a nervous breakdown.

"Anyways Error recommend I call you saying you're the best at what you do so why not use it for this?" Blue said once his laughter taper off.

Ink's eyes went wide as he took in what Blue just said. Did he really say that? Pride filling him he pulled his brush forward and puffed out his chest.

"Then let's get to it shall we!"
