Error's POV two weeks later

"UggGgH, wHaT pArT oF sTaY aWaY dOn'T tHoSe aNomAliEs gEt?"I groan

"WhO wAs iT tHiS tImE, bRoThEr?"Paps asks

"ShArD aGAiN. TriEd tO iNtRuDe mY hAnGoUt pLaNs wItH buFfEr. LuCkiLy I mAdE hIm a ShArD rEpElLeNt sCarF sO tHaT iMbEciLe wEnT fLyInG tHroUgH a pOrTaL bEfOrE h3 gOt wiThIn teN fEeT oF bUfFer."I tell him

I have already told Paps about my encounters with Shard and he has been searching code for anything that could be known about Shard. So far nothing but he's still trying.

"ThAt's gOoD. Oh aNd I tHiNk I fOunD soMetHinG neW bRoTheR! CoMe oN, I wiLl shOw yOu!"He says, launching himself into our string ceiling of the antivoid.

I lift myself up beside him and quickly takes off, climbing through the tangled mess of puppets and souls I have collected. I follow him, crawling though it, finding him sitting comfortably in a swing of them. He points up, just barely touching a surface at last. I didn't even know there really was a ceiling to this void. And what catches my attention is that it's cracking.

"I chEcKed Th3 cOde fOr iT aNd tUrnS oUt tHat iT iS thE fOuRtH wAlL bReAkiNg dOwN. SeEmS liKe oUr inTerAcTiOns wiTh tHe vOicEs hAs wOrn iT oUt oVer TiMe. It iSn't aLwAyS uS eiThEr.

He pauses, seeming to think.

"MaYbE thE voIceS wiLl hAvE mOre fReEdOm tO iNtErAcT! Or hAvE a vEsSeL tO coNnEcT wiTh uS!"He says

I am not so sure...Would it be safe?

He climbs down, getting an idea and ready to craft away. My phone beeps and I see a message from Sci saying that Nighty just arrived for another test run. Then a reminder pops up about the club meeting so I open a portal there and smile, seeing the group start to arrive. I sit down, starting to teach them how to knit some blankets with designs stitched into them.

Three hours later, I wave goodbye to the group after taking pictures with them again. I open the door to go for a walk as I usually do, getting caught completely off-guard when hearing a squeal when I do so.

"Glitchy!  I'm so glad that I found you first! Heeeey!"A voice squeals

I see a black goopy figure with a purple outline and glow hopping in place and clapping. He looks and sounds like Nighty but only has one tentacle.

"DoN't cAlL mE gLiTcHy."I say, walking past him

I feel a tentacle wrap around me. The thing is, my glitching doesn't increase so I'm familiar with him.

"Oh come oooon Glitchy! Just one cuddle? I know you left a fan meeting but you know I'm your biggest fan!"He cheers, clinging to me

He hugs me close, the tentacle preventing me from moving.

"And now I can cuddle you as much as I please without having to share!"He says happily

Share...?

"WhAt tHe heLl aRe yOu tAlKiNg aBoUt?"I ask

"I finally have my own form to act on my own for once. I know it's temporary but I'll savor it! And now I won't be smacked down for getting affectionate to you!"He says

Smacked down...? Wait...Is this...?

I check for a soul and don't find one.

"There's no soul in me! Just love and corruption!"He says, hugging me tighter as the tentacle pats me on the head.
