A Destructive Family-Sequel to Errormare Story

Chapter 27: Moving On

No POV, months later

Error and Dream have adapted in the weeks that have passed for them. Dream quickly found himself fighting this version of Nightmare, who isn't as sympathetic or caring towards others as the one they know. Error finds himself in the middle between the two, fighting this version of Nightmare who has no care for how his schemes affect the balance Error is meant to keep so the multiverse doesn't fold in on itself as well as keeping Ink from breaking the balance either. He also has won over the gang, taking them in since this Nightmare needs to grow in the caring-for-allies department, though he is making progress to get them back now that he realizes how much they matter to him. Dream has made similar progress with the Star Sanses, growing close to them while keeping his distance from Ink.

But through Error's work, he has closed his soul off from feeling anything for Nightmare. That makes it hurt less. Yet he gained this Nightmare's respect and their fights turn to more open talks. Error keeps himself from building a bond, having only one Nightmare in his mind that he clings to despite all the time that passed. His Nighty.

One day he opens up about this to the Nightmare here once asked where he came from to have so much power. Nightmare could sense all the negativity hanging over Error and absorbs it with a sigh, feeling bad for him. He does his best to comfort Error but it doesn't work out that well..Then again, his "comfort" is not the best verbally.

"You don't belong here."

"Oh GEe tHaNkS cApTaIn 0bVi0US! I cOuLdn'T tElL!"Error snaps

"Okay, maybe that wasn't the best thing to say."

"Ya d0n'T sAY?"He says, glaring at Nightmare

Little did either of them know that Buffer has been watching and listening from a distance. Once hearing Error's explanation, he knows that it's the Error he knows and rushes back to the border of the multiverse to get back and report his findings.

Now, Error has the Star Sans base to himself with the rest of the occupants out doing their own things. He has gotten his own room by now, unable to go to the antivoid without thinking of the life he got shoved out of. The one with his gang...cat...friends..Nightmare....At least here he doesn't get any reminders in the base. But this break leaves him with his thoughts, something he is not that fond of lately either. Little does he know that he is about to have an unexpected guest visiting.

Error's POV

I sigh, staring at my crown in my hands.

I should just toss this into the closet or something. Wearing it has me hold on...And holding on hurts...Our third anniversary passed and the day of my plans is weeks away. I should just forget it...Not like I'll be able to go through with it.

I hear a knock at the door and curiously go downstairs, leaving my crown behind. I go to open the door and frown.

"Oh, h3y n1gHtmAr3. DiDn't eXpEcT y0u t0 c0m3 h3r3."I say

"Hello, Glitchy.~ I thought that I'd come to find you.~"He coos, unsettling me

"CuT tHaT oUt."I say

"Why? I want to show my love for you."He says

I glare at him and his tentacles that reach for me shrink away. He steps closer and I back away. He makes his way inside, shutting the door.

"DoN't fUcKiNg t0uCh m3."I growl

"Of course. Wouldn't want my dearest Glitchy to crash."He says

My face burns but I frown, clenching my fists.

Is he making fun of me and my pain? Trying to take advantage of it? He is such an asshole!

"You look adorable as always.~"He coos
