"We'll find it eventually. " Error said simply, falling into step with the rest of the group. He looked to Ink and whispered slightly, "Aren't we like, not meant to be seen?" He asked looking around at the weird stares they were all getting from other monsters and humans.
Ink's brow furrowed with slight annoyance. "I forgot about that. Dkwnsiwksnwjsjsa who cares- we've already been seen everywhere else, plus, this world seems to be in peace anyways." Ink said simply, he sounded a bit rude, which was odd with how happy he was 5 minutes ago, though the little moodswing disappeared as quickly as it came.
Error raised his hands slightly in mock defense. "Okay." He said shrugging before crossing his arms and looking at Ink again.

"What kind of ice cream are you getting?" Error inquired, curiosity peaking his interest.
Ink smiled like he had cracked the code before pointing to himself with his thumb resting on his chest, though he removed it after it pushed on a broken rib. "That's a simple answer, all of them!" Ink said triumphantly.
"I'll personally get coffee flavor if they have any." Reaper said as he walked beside them all.
Mischief sighed in sorrow, "Sadly I cannot eat so I must imagine the taste. Strawberry sounds good though."
Error shrugged, "I don't think I've ever..... Tried any ice cream?" He said, combing through the few memories he had to try and think of a time he had tried ice cream, "Nope, not that I can think of."
Ink tilted his head, putting his hands behind his head as he closed his eyes. "Except that one time I got you some and you refused to eat it. Hmm, maybe you'd like chocolate flavor." Ink suggested simply, his eyes closed up until the last second where he opened one of his eyes to look at Error mischievously. "Maybe you'd like rainbow skittle flavor."
"Wow, forward are we?" Reaper joked simply before taking a sip of coffee.
Mischief wheezed simply, fangirling once again.

Error looked puzzled before he just shook his head, "I'm not sure. I'm not a big sweetness person, though I feel like you would know that." He said casually, Looking around for the shop.
"Awww, but you're always so nice when I'm sweet to you." Ink chuckled simply as he looked in the distance, spotting a sign.
The god of creativity narrowed eyes to read it better before smiling, his eye lights stars. "Oh yay! There it is! I had a feeling we were right on the mark." Ink laughed as he cheered himself on with a fist motion.
Reaper smiled, he enjoyed seeing the two interact, it reminded him of home.
Error blushed and sighed, "We're finally here." He spoke, tightening his hoodie as he sped up walking. "Wanna race? And no you can't use broomy this time" He asked Ink, his narrowed eye sockets challenging Ink.
Ink drooped in a mocking sadness. "Aww and that's what I was hoping for." Ink bounced back up and smiled excitedly. "I'll meet cha there, slowpoke!" Ink tapped Error's shoulder before running off, Particularly zooming from his small size, hopefully this usual mischievous plot would work.
"He always does this." Error muttered, though the sides of his mouth moved a bit up up, as if he was fighting back a smile. The touch from Ink had made his arm feel a bit tingly with glitches, but it wasn't debilitating as Ink had hoped. The glitch ran, jumping over multiple small children as he did, using his strings to pull him forward as he landed next to Ink by the ice cream shop door, stepping down onto the entry mat at the same time as Ink's foot did the same.

Ink took in a few breaths, exhausted from the quick burst of a run as he leaned against the shop door smuggly. "Not so arrogant now mr cool-guy-Erro-" Ink spoke as he fell into the store, the door was push to open.
Ink landed on his face and put up a thumb after a few seconds. "I'm good." He near mumbled from the ground level.
Reaper and Mischief caught up quickly. "Well, someone fell hard for you, Glitchy." Reaper laughed a bit.
Mischief enjoyed listening to this humor, quality content.
Error shook his head, rolling his eyes before he reached a hand down to offer Ink some help up, Not realizing at all the kind gesture.
Ink rolled over to get up, taking a few seconds before grabbing Error's hand as he got up, his face colorful with blush of both embarrassment and flusteredness. "I guess Reaper beat me to the mark on the punchline." Ink scratched the back of his head, one of his eye lights a pink heart and the other a green diamond before his closed his eye sockets sincerely, sticking out his tongue jokingly.
Error shrugged, realizing just then how close they were. In all honesty he was trying his hardest not to short circuit so he stayed that way frozen for a couple seconds before taking a step back, his face a marine blue. "Now are we getting ice cream or not?" He asked quickly, desperate for a subject change as he crossed his arms, looking away.

A snap could be heard as Reaper took a picture of the two together with a black flip phone. "That's the plan." Reaper laughed a bit as he captioned the photo; "Sorry, tor, found a new otp."
Ink turned around and walked up to the counter, "Three bowls of ice cream please! One coffee flavored, one with all the flavors, and one chocolate flavor." Ink said simply.
The blue bunny behind the desk smiled nicely, his eyes closed sweetly. "That'll be 40 g!" The monster said simply as Ink reached into his pocket, pulling out four neat coins, each having "10" engraved into the metal.
"Here ya go, sir." Ink said with a friendly smile at the oddly familiar monster.
"Coming right up! Please take a seat while we prepare your order." The bunny said as he wrote the order down and placed the small paper down next to him.

Ink nodded with a 'thank you' before leading the other skeletons to a booth in the corner.
Ink sat down first by the window, Mischief taking the place across from him.
"I could've paid for mine." Error spoke stubbornly, sitting in the booth next to Ink as he placed his neatly folded sweater on the table. Error watched as the shorter skeleton fiddled with a straw, Ink flicking the top.
Ink placed the straw on the top of the arch leading to his nose hole, balancing it delicately. "It's alright really, I don't mind paying." Ink smiled, causing the straw to fall. Ink leaned down and grabbed the straw, placing it back on the table.
"I don't know why they give us straws, this is an ice cream place." Mischief mentioned, throwing one at Ink like a dart out of simple boredom.
"Ah, they have sundaes, neat." Reaper said simply, saying it louder so that Mischief would hear as an answer to his question.
"That actually makes quite a bit of sense now that I think about it." Mischief chuckled nervously afterwards, scratching the back of his grey hood.
Error took a straw for himself and began fiddling with it. Holding it precariously on his finger as he chatted with the others, all talking about random things they could talk about.

An orange cat monster brought out the ice cream bowls. The cat sighed, his tail whipped as he looked to the side at the blue bunny who was cheering him on silently from the backroom. The cat simply rolled his eyes. "Alright, three ice cream bowls of rainbow, coffee, and chocolate." His voice was low and raspy like that of a smoker.
The waiter placed the tray holding the ice cream bowls down and looked to the side again at the backroom, mouthing 'do I really have to' to the other monster before sighing once more. "...Would you like a smile with that?" He asked simply, embarrassment showing on his face as his ears pinned down against his orange head.
"You already gave us many, silly! Thank you." Ink replied simply, Ink loved interacting with people, especially in friendly ways, it was always fun to have nice conversations.
The waiter nodded quickly and walked away, picking up the tray as he did so, some slight banter between the two employees being heard as he walked away.
"This place is nice!" Ink smiled as he grabbed his bowl, the bright colors shining bright.
Error nodded and laid a coin out to tip the waiter, no words needed as he just slipped the coin onto the table side by the waiter.
"It is nice." Error said, grabbing a napkin for each of them as they all began to eat their ice cream.
