When you two get back home, you allow Error some privacy so he can get changed, then you make both of you dinner.
As you cook dinner Error asks, "What do you want me to call you?"
You think as you stir the pot of noodles and vegetables. "Call me Mag. It's short for Magnolia, I named myself after a flower that can survive in extremely harsh environments."
"You na-named ya-yours-self?"
"Yes, I'm non-binary, meaning I don't identify as female or male. I chose a name that represents my struggle."
Error looks thoughtful.
You two have dinner and Error ends up falling asleep on his little bed which you carefully place on your nightstand by your bed.
