Error's POV a few days later

I smile, relaxing in my room as I pet Perl who is purring softly. Then his ears go up and runs off quickly. Before I could check to see why, I get knocked down onto my bed under a pile of food. Yes, that's right. Food. I get buried under it and frown.

Then I realize what food it is. Cakes and garlic bread.

What the heck?

"Happy Ace Week, Error!"I hear Reaper say

Of course...

"ThAnkS f0r tHe s3nt1m3nT bUt iT's n0t oCt0b3r y3t."I say

"Oh whoops! Cya!"He says, then teleports away

Then 404 drops by and dumps more onto me without a word or glance. I get completely buried in this food. Then I hear a door creak open.

"Glitchy? Are you in here?"Nighty asks

I carefully stick my hand out and hear him gasp. I see his tentacles slither in, pushing all the food aside to dig me out.

"What happened, Glitchy? Why were you buried in...cakes and garlic bread?"He asks

"ReApEr aNd 404 tHoUgHt iT wAs aCe wEeK aNd g0t aCe f0od. Ev3n iF iT's m0re oF a j0ke."I say

"How do you make a joke about food?"He asks

"ThErE aRe jOkEs mAdE bY Ac3S tHaT w3'd rAtHeR eAt tHeSe tHaN hAvE s3x. It's oN3 0f th3 th3m3s oFth3 c0mMunItY."I say

"What else is popular?"He asks, sitting beside me

"HmMm, drAg0nS aNd AxolotLs aRe aNimAlS asSoc1atEd w1tH aCeS.

"Which card would you be?"He asks

"Ac3 oF heArTs."I say, offering him a slice

He smiles, trying it and enjoying the taste.

"So...you'll be the ace of hearts up my sleeve?"He asks

I smile at him, kissing his cheek.

"SuR3."I say, seeing his face burn up.

"Any reason those two animals are chosen for the community?"He asks me

"WeLl tH3 axol0tl r3aS0n iS deBat3d bUt iT 1s 0ft3n fr0m tHem l0oKinG cuT3, med1a chArActErs aS ax0lotLs aNd repr3s3nt ac3s. AnD th3r3 iS a mYth tHaT th3Y r3pr0duc3 as3xuAlLy.

"You'd be a pretty badass dragon."He says

"PlEaSe d0n't w1sH tHat 0n m3 wHen v0iceS ar3 l1st3niNg. ThEy maY gEt iDeAs."I chuckle

"It's the truth."He tells me

I smirk at him.

"H0p3 y0u ar3 oKaY w1tH b3iNg mY g0lDeN tr3asUr3."I say

He chuckles with a nod.

"Perfectly fine with that."He says, then looks at all the food around us.

I scoop all the food up, already knowing his question. I lay all the food out on the table, then whistle and getting the gang running in. Horror drools at the sight of so much food on the table.

"It's not October yet..."He says, tilting his head in confusion

"MiStaKeN dAy giVeN bY ReApEr aNd 404. S0o0o, y0u aLl cAn d1g In."I tell them

Didn't have to tell them twice. They dig right into the food happily. I glance at Nighty with a grin.

"HapPy?"I ask

He chuckles, nodding.

"If this is what happens on the wrong day, what does the actual week go?"He asks

I shrug.

"It'S a fEw m0nThS awAy s0 w3 cAn s3e."I say

I smile at him happily.

"And our second anniversary is in a month."He says, his eye twinkling at the mention of this.

I nod, then get an idea, I walk closer, poking him.

"NoW iS tHiS tRuLy y0u?"I ask with a grin

"Yes! I'm from this time I swear! It's not like our last anniversary!"He says

"OkAy, jUsT cHeCkInG."I say with a chuckle

"Dads are getting lovey dovey again."Killer says

"And? It's nice."Horror says before tearing into another loaf of garlic bread.

I chuckle, shaking my head.

"Since when were we the parents of you all?"Nighty asks

"We d0 ke3p tH3m oUt oF tROuBlE."I chuckle

"Yeah, and not just me!"Killer says

"EsPecIaLlY y0u."I say

Nighty smiles.

"Surprised you haven't caught on, Brother. They always seemed like your chaotic children that you had to keep on leashes."Dream chuckles

"YoU dO tEnd t0 g0 iNt0 pr0t3ct1v3 daD aS w3Ll."I say

He smiles once considering this.

"It'S jUsT a cHa0t1c fAmiLy."Paps says

I chuckle as everyone agrees. Nighty looks so happy.

Cause that's what we are. A family.
