Exist (Sequel)

It's Not Fair (Err)

Error had been fine with waiting. He was having fun making things to sell to the people, but as the sun continued to fall with no Reaper in sight, he grew worried. Error went to get Exist, who was trying to eat her hand. He chuckled and pulled her little fist out before picking her up and carrying her over to the stroller Suave had brought in. Once she was settled in, they headed out, looking for anyone who could show them the way out. It wasn't as difficult as one would imagine. The young human maid had even shown him how to get back into the gardens. He started to look around, calling out to his boyfriend when he heard voices and followed them. There was Reaper, with another man. He had a slash in his chest, and his left eye was filled with glitches and pixels, and he was kissing /his/ husband. Error was ready to kill this monster when Reaper pulled away. "i- don't do that. my name is reaper... y... you have mistaken me for someone else..." That tone... that was the tone Reaper used when talking about Geno...

The skeleton's sockets widened, and he covered his mouth. "oh my stars - i'm so damn sorry -" Reaper waved his hands quickly. "h-hey, no, it was a misunderstanding - you're fine - uh, sorry for not saying something sooner -" Error watched Reaper interact with this Geno. It was clear to him that having Geno around was messing with his lovers head. It was also clear that Reaper wasn't quite as over Geno as he was led to believe. It was... soulbreaking to watch. "heh... i'm so sorry for laughing... um... i'm caedes. i'm sorry for thinking you were... you look a lot like mors so-" Reaper rubbed the back of his neck. "yeah, i picked up on that... uh, it was nice to meet you, but i should probably get home..." Caedes nodded quickly. "oh yeah- it can get dangerous at dark. there are a lot of vamps who can't, uh, control their hunger." Fear nestled itself into Error at the thought of being replaced, but it seemed Caedes already had this world's Reaper. "right, it was nice to meet you..." He started to walk, his gaze never leaving Caedes'- that was until he tripped over a plant root. Caedes laughed as Reaper recovered beautifully. "it was nice to meet you too, reaper... maybe we can meet again..."

Error's soul froze over at the suggestion. What if it didn't matter? What if Reaper left Error and the baby? Error had no idea what Reaper was thinking either, he hadn't said anything as he left. Was that a good thing? A bad thing? Error forced a neutral expression as Reaper approached and called for his attention. ("reaper.") "r-eap-er." Reaper looked up at Error, standing there in the grass with Exist in the stroller. Error had seen. Reaper made a choked noise before rushing to him and sobbing. "s-sorry! i-i'm s-so sorry!" Error sighed softly and hugged his lover. ("i know... i know you didn't mean it...") "i kn-ow... i-i k-no-w y-ou d-did-n-t me-an i-t..." Reaper continued to cry into Error. Error would give Reaper a chance to break this off before it started. "i-i th-thought i was o-over him..." Reaper whimpered. Error inhaled deeply. ("well... now's the time to make sure of it...") "w-ell... n-ow-s th-e t-im-e t-o m-ake sur-e of i-t..." For everyone's sake.
