Of Soulmates and Bonds - Errorink

25. Soulmates

The Doodlesphere was stunning.

Dream couldn't help but murmuring: "Woah...", and that made him feel longing coming from Error, that was quickly replaced by restlessness.

"𝕎Ｅ𝔩𝔩?! ภσⓌ Ⓦ𝓱Ａt, ᵇяＡt?!(Well?! Now what, brat?!)" He was nervous.
"Now we just wait. Ink's body will get what it needs from the environment, and he'll get back to normal. I don't know how long it'll take though, maybe you should let someone else hold Ink."
"千𝕌𝓬𝕂 σⓕⓕ! ι 𝓬ＡŇ 𝓭σ 𝐢t!(Fuck off! I can do it!)" He really couldn't, though Error certainly was stubborn enough to try despite all the pain he was feeling.

Blue shouted: "Something's happening!" and then pointed at Ink's pupils. They were circling a lot of different shapes and colors. Judging from the positive feelings all around him, that was a good thing: Dream remembered Blue telling him that Ink's pupils showed his feelings, but he still couldn't sense anything coming from him.

They finally settled on a blue disk and a yellow star. Ink started blinking fast, then turned his skull a bit and looked up at Error; the blue disk changed to a pink heart and he smiled.

"Hey soulmate."
The onslaught of positive feelings from Error left Dream feeling dizzy. The Destroyer smiled back.
"𝓱Ｅ𝕪.(Hey.)"
"INK!"

The Creator's pupils became yellow and orange exclamation points, and he quickly turned his skull upside down to look at Blue, who was both smiling and crying.
"Blue! I'm so happy to see you!"

He started squirming a bit, so Error gently put him upright, though he left a hand hovering (not touching him) on the small of Ink's back, probably to support him should he fall. There was no need, as once Ink's bare feet touched the ground he ran and launched himself in Blue's arms.

"You came! You kept your promise!"
"Ahaha, what promise?"
In response, Ink lifted his scarf in front of Blue's face and pointed at it, though Dream didn't know what he was supposed to show him, as the scarf was completely white.
"This one! You said you'd come get me if I was in the white again, and you did! You and Error both came for me!"
He then hugged him again.

Dream could feel Blue was really moved.

"And!" His pupils became two stars. "I found my soulmate! It's Error! It's perfect! Can you believe it?"
Blue glanced with amusement at Error, who had stopped glitching: the Destroyer was both proud and embarrassed, and blushed.
"Oh, I can believe it."
"ι ᵇＥt 𝕪σ𝕌 t𝓱𝐢Ň𝕂 𝕪σ𝕌'яＥ şσ ⓕ𝕌𝓬𝕂𝐢ŇＧ ⓕ𝕌ŇŇ𝕪 я𝐢Ｇ𝓱t ŇσⓌ! ภＥⓌş ⓕ𝔩Ａş𝓱, 𝕪σ𝕌'яＥ Ňσt!(I bet you think you're so fucking funny right now! News flash, you're not!)"

Ink laughed, and Error lost his glare to an adoring gaze; the force of his love actually made Dream stagger a bit.

Frisk pulled the Creator's pant leg and said: "Ink? I have something for you."
Ink turned around, and his eyes became a purple question mark and a yellow exclamation point.
"Hey, you're- My Book!"
The Creator, starry eyed, excitedly took the book from Frisk's hands, and hugged it tightly. He then frowned, his pupils changing to a green square and a blue spiral.
"Wait, what about all the people in Error's- Oh wait, you took care of it already, right?" How did he know that?
Frisk nodded. Ink smiled again.
"Then I'll put everything back!"

Ink started leaking from his hands, enveloping the book completely and creating a small black sphere. The Creator then threw the ball upwards and, after a few seconds, it exploded with a blinding light.
When Dream could see again, he was amazed.

He thought the place was stunning before but now, with all the colorful pages floating around, it was breathtaking.

"I'm glad everything worked out for the better." Frisk said, relieved. "I'll leave now, I have my hands full thanks to all Nightmare did. If you ever need me for whatever reason Ink, just call my name and I'll come as soon as I can. I'll also drop by in a few days, to discuss some things. Bye everyone!"
Frisk disappeared.
