Error's POV a few days later

"Hi, Error! How are you doing there?"Blue asks on a call with Horror

I wave to them.

"I'm d0iNg oKaY, juSt eXpLoriNg tHe liBrArY h3rE."I say

"Now, you said that there are riddles to solve. So where do we start, Horror?"Blue asks eagerly

"2:I am made of the finest material, softer than silk but stronger than a thread.

Made to be prepared for any trouble ahead.

It can hang very low or reach very high.

It is the color of the sea or of the wonderful sky.

It originates from a cry but can cause some souls to die.

I have been made to protect a chaotic ally,

Whatever that may imply.

What am I?"Horror reads

"Hmm, definitely relates to Error's strings and Killer. I can tell that...Have you given Killer anything?"Blue asks

I nod.

"MaDe hIm a jAcKeT tHaT wOuLd pRoTeCt hIm wiTh a bArRiEr fr0m tr0uBlE bUt hE nEvEr wEaRs iT."I say, crossing my arms

"I'll go check his closet."Horror says

"What's the next one?"Blue asks

"I think it refers to one of his scarves...It says I am a fluffy tool rare to find

To boost the confidence of the blind.

Each time I'm used he shows true style,

Even if it's been a while.

In such a bold color opposite to his norm,

I can also keep him nice and warm.

What am I?"Horror replies

Blue smiles.

"Definitely one of Error's scarves. Hmm, true style..."He says

"Ooo! I know!"Horror says, running off.

A few minutes later he returns with Killer's jacket and my pink scarf. I grin and he places them in the code screen, both dinging.

"Okay! We're making progress! What's the next one?"Blue asks

"This one Dust and Killer thought meant Ink...4:With me there are many emotions for you to see.

Stern and Kind, and even shy, all before counting to three.

I can be trouble and to some cruel,

But often I am a fool.

You can always know when I am near you.

Just look for the goo.

What am I?"Horror says

I see Blue frown and shake his head.

"I can see why with the multiple emotions that change quickly. Multiple moods that switch before counting to three...Short time for emotions...Isn't Stern the name of one of Nightmare's tentacles? He's often a fool and made of goo....well, goop I guess but still."Blue says

"But the box is too small to put Mom in it."Horror says

"Maybe the item is just a piece of him that it seeks...Like his tentacle or something since it focuses on describing that more than Nightmare himself?"He says
