Tied Up With You

Stuck Together

"Who the f^k eats like that."

Error's multiple tongues lick around his mouth and he glances at me.

"Idiot." He says throwing me out of his home.

When I hit the ground I land on soft flowers.

"Rude." I mutter under my breath.

Looking around I can see a vast sea of flowers. 

Where even am I?

I scratch my head in confusion. Surely there is some mistake. Error threw me here however so I must make do.

The garden is large and colorful. I was about to keep looking until I was snatched up by strings and thrown into a dark universe.

Why am I here. Why pick on me? You can pick on anyone else, but you chose me. Did Ink start to bore you?

I sit down cross legged and meditate. Once I calmed down I teleported out of there into the busy streets of some universe.

That is when I see it.

Error leaps in from a portal, spiraling down a string Error then swings sending out attacks.

I should leave.

But when have I ever seen something perform so beautifully.

Like a spider dancing through its webs, Error twirls and flips and swings sending destruction. 

What is this feeling? Awe or fear? I can't seem to bring myself to run.

"I seem to have caught all of your attentions now. Your prayers have been answered? You poor lot of souls prey to me. And not the religious kind. That's right. I am the hunter. Come kneel before the God of Destruction!"

I watch as the surrounding people kneel in fear. I watch from the corner of a building.

Truly this was only coincidence.

Error pokes fun at the people while seemingly looking to be, waiting?

"Error! You stop this at once!"

When the fighting was over I heard Error one last time.

"Tch, I had enough playing around." All the souls around me are deleted and the world sounds like it is about to collapse.

I teleport again. This time I end up where Error is.

"You again! How come every time I try to leave or do something you're always there? It is like you are stuck to me."

'Do you really think that'. Error's expression reads.

[Giving You a Chance]

I sigh and take a seat down on a rock.

"What even are you.?"

Error looks at his arms and hands before looking up at me.

"To be completely sure, I don't know myself." He chuckles.

"You called yourself a god." I state folding my arms.

Error rolls his eye lights.

"Why do you destroy then?" I ask hoping to get an answer from the Destroyer of Universes.

"Because, it is my job."

"Who said?" I ask.

"I said." He says before he starts muttering to himself.

I shrug it off and push on.

"Your past what was it like?" I say softer, lightening my tone as to not offend.

Error pauses, eye sockets widening. 

Me, wanting to know more about him. Isn't this an ironic turn of events.

"In the beginning I knew nothing. I was born to a void of white nothingness. . . . That is when I became the destroyer." Error says telling his life story.

Surprisingly, I managed to listen to it all.

Error has an unbelievable past

I try to imagine Error's face without tears. Had he not cried that day, perhaps he would have remained innocent and not have killed those monsters.

A soft kind Error used to exist. :oozing at Error I try to push past all the darkness clouding his visage and imagine a gentler, cuter young Error who was just trying to live. Then I focus on the older mature Error who lost his naivety long ago to insanity.

All Error really is, is a big kid. Someone who grew up but never actually grew up.

The question is can I fix him?

"Error, may you go on a date with me."
