A Destructive Family-Sequel to Errormare Story

Chapter 53: Busted by Brothers

E!Pap's POV a few days later

While Error stays to care for his sick husband, I have taken over some of his duties. Caring for Nightmare while sick is tough enough since he is clingy, forgets things easily, his tentacles act up more, and the symptoms randomly hit him in waves. One minute he seems to get better, the next he will get worse with either nausea or dizzy spells. Add in the fact that he wants to keep working and my brother has his work cut out for him. Luckily he is so out of it that he doesn't argue or is aware of Error distracting him as he is way more focused on getting the affection from my brother that he acts like he is "starved" for. I've seen him get dazed so easily when refusing to take meds by the touch of Error's hand on his cheek, then giving in.

Today he is taking Nightmare to a doctor, which will certainly be a draining task given everything with Nightmare combined with interacting with others like other patients or medical staff at the office before getting answers.

So, I've taken over other jobs like dealing with Ink or the balance and have been looking after my nephews so they don't possibly get infected by whatever Nightmare has. Though Horror has been leaving meals at the door to Nightmare's bedroom once being informed about it. And lately, the main issue with them has been helping them when being busted by their boyfriends' brothers. I had to go to UnderSwap yesterday to keep Dust from being attacked after being found on a picnic with Blue. Blue held his brother back and we attempted to talk things through, which actually worked and Dust got a "chance" despite Blue saying that it was fine.

I now find myself going to Farmer's AU and see his brother holding Horror up with curiosity. Farmer turns to me and walks over from the field his brother is in.

"EvErYtHiNg oKaY? YoU cAlLeD sAyInG tHaT h0rRoR gOt cAuGhT bY yOuR bRO. DuSt's eNcOunTeR wAs viOlEnT s0 tHaT dOeSn'T sOuNd gOoD."I say

"At first I thought that he would freak out too but now I see that he is more freaked out by how he seems to be thinner than his last visit. He has visited before but Paps only knew that we are friends at the time."He says

"Oh rEaLlY? I gUeSs sOmEONe hAs bEeN skiPpInG mEaLs aGaIn. I wiLl hAnDlE tHaT iSsUe lAtEr."I say, crossing my arms

"Farm! Help! He won't put me down!"Horror yelps as I see the Papyrus start to run through the field with Horror thrown over his shoulder.

"Paps! Put my boyfriend down!"Farmer shouts, chasing after him

"No! He is going to eat a healthy meal even if he doesn't like it! He's underfed so I'm going to overfeed him to balance it out!"His brother yells

I can't help but laugh. This is a full 180 from the encounter in UnderSwap yet still so odd. Going from breaking up a fight to stopping....a concerned welfare abduction? Could it be considered that? I shake my head, chasing after them through the field.

Boy do I have a story to report back to Brother about!

I manage to run past them, blocking his brother at the edge of the field and making him stop in his tracks.

"Huh? Who are you?"He asks, tilting his head as I readjust my headphones.

"I aM E!PaP bUT I aM tHiNkInG Of bEiNg cAlLeD bLiP tO mAkE tHiNgS eAsIeR. NoW I wOuLd aPpReCiAtE iT iF yOu pUt mY nEpHeW dOwN."I say

"But-!"He begins

"PlEaSe."I say

He sighs, nodding. He puts Horror down and Horror glances at me, recognizing that he is in trouble.

"GoOd. NoW wHaT diD yOu hAvE iN mInD?"I ask

I see sparkles around this Papyrus as he realizes what I mean. He sees his brother catching up and grabs Horror by the hand, running ahead to a house. I chuckle, following him inside. He shuts the door and puts Horror in a chair, quickly getting busy in the kitchen.
