Ink woke up on the cold ground. His eyes fluttered open, only for the skeleton to squint them because of the blinding light of his surroundings. He slowly stood up, rubbing his eyes, trying to adjust himself to how bright it was. Once he did, he could barely believe his eyes.
He was back in the REAL Doodle Sphere, various islands with portals leading to certain AUs floating around him.

He quickly looked down at his frame, noticing his vial sash back in place. He placed a hand over his chest, noticing that the faint thump of the soul he had for some time was gone. And so were his emotions.
He uncapped a few of his vials, drinking from nearly all of them, to simply get the full palette of emotions to use.

The moment he finished, he let himself frown. Nikki did warn him of that. He blinked a few times, realizing that the Readers must've really wanted an epilogue if she's writing this right now.
The Artist looked into an unspecified direction and gave the Readers a quick peace sign, his eye lights having taken the shape that everybody recognised from the fanart- the signature yellow star and teal oval.

The skeleton quickly moved his attention to something else- or rather, someone else. Someone who wasn't even there with him.
Error.

Ink supposed there could be only one place the other landed in, and since he himself landed in his home- he figured the Destroyer must've been sent back to his Anti-Void.
He reached behind his back, grinning as he found his giant paintbrush in place this time. He grabbed it, swiftly swinging it and creating a portal on the ground.

The Artist was about to set foot into it, when he realised something that made him move his foot away from the puddle of paint he had created. He frowned as he took out one of the vials out of his sash.
The pink vial-the one responsible for romantic feelings.

He recalled some moments he had with Error during the main story of the fanfic, pondering about using it or not. He knew the Readers wanted it... But... He wasn't sure.

*DESTROY OR CREATE
*DESTROY-9 VOTES
*CREATE-7 VOTES
*ACTIVATE CONSEQUENCES FOR "DESTROY"?
*YES
*CONSEQUENCES ACTIVATED

Ink scoffed softly. He was just being silly. Error didn't feel that way for him. Even if he did, why would he feel something towards him now that he was soulless once again?
He tucked the vial back into its holder in his sash and finally jumped into the portal, disappearing in it, only to reappear moments after, but in a different place- the Anti-Void.

The skeleton looked around, seeing nothing has changed after what happened in the fanfic itself- because apparently the Author decided to reverse the time too, so that the X-Event hasn't happened yet.

Before he could take another step, something that looked like another familiar skeleton literally knocked into him, nearly sending him to the ground, but somehow managing to keep the both of them standing.
Error was hugging him. Again. It was kind of weird.

"Uh, hi, Error? Glad to see you after the fanfic disaster?" the Artist chuckled awkwardly, pulling away from the embrace, looking at the other. He looked the same as always... Except... A bit more glitchy. Oh. That's because of the hug.

"YeAh..." Error grumbled as he stepped back a bit more, his skeletal cheeks covered in a yellow blush. "I gUeSs..."

Ink stared at him in confusion, tilting his head to the side. He started slowly walking around him, inspecting his appearance carefully, taking notice of his expression and overall body language.

"... Oh, wow..."

"wHat?" the Destroyer muttered out. He wasn't even going to question whatever the other was doing. He just let him circle around him a few times and just stared at him as he stopped in front of him again.
And then flinched as the other started laughing, doubling over as he clutched his nonexisten stomach. "WhY aRe YoU lAugHinG?!"

"Do... Do you really think that this is still gonna work?!" Ink snickered. "Please! Did you really think... That despite me losing my soul once we got back here... That this would work out?!" the skeleton laughed even harder, making Error glitch even more.

"wHat?"

"Oh, Glitchy... How am I supposed to not notice someone having very obvious feelings towards me when I observe literally EVERYONE for reference?" Ink stated simply once he calmed down a little. He crossed his arms over his chest with a cheerful grin. "But don't worry! The ErrorDream ship is getting more popular with each passing day!"

"gET OUt!"Error yelled furiously, glitches obscuring his eyesockets from view. Strings started streaking from his eyes though, so the Artist guessed what was going on there. "I HaTE YoU!!"

"Oh, welp!" Ink simply sidestepped the first few strings sent at him and quickly painted a portel underneath him. "See ya later then, Error!"

And with that, he dissappeared.
But the glitches obscuring the Destroyer's view did not.

The skeleton gripped the already formed strings tighter in his hands, more burning their way down his cheek bones.
With a scream of anguish, he let all hell loose over the puppets he had made and that were hanging near him.

Yep. It's finally over.
Sorry that you didn't get a happy ending, but-weLP-
YoU cHoSe iT yOurSelF, MosTly-

But yeah. Thank you all for reading this, despite the quality getting gradually worse because of me forcing myself to write the last few chapters. You guys are the reason this book was finished at all. infjarts especially is the one to thank lol-

SPEAKING ABOUT THIS PERSON, ACTUALLY-

Piper aka infjarts and I have been planning an Undertale AU series for like, over half a year or even more and if you liked THIS crappy story, then you're definitely going to LOVE this one.
Don't worry, I won't break the fourth wall there even once this time xD

The title is "Insanity Brothers". We call it the "angsty kiddie adoption au", though. Basically it's a revamped story of Dreamtale with Nightmare and Dream accidentally becoming adoptive dads of a few aged down kids that are all AU Sanses. There's going to be Sketch aka Ink, Killer, Horror, Red, Blue, Error, Outer, Dust and even Cross. There are a few other side characters but in order to know who they are, you're gonna have to read the book(s). We haven't decided yet if we're just gonna pile the entire story into one book. The book with the main story hasn't been published yet BUT...

The story of IB!Error has been =)

You can read it on Piper's account, it's called "Patient Number 404" and it's told from Error's perspective and I recommed you read it along with "Insanity Brothers" itself once it's published.
If you want to of course, but yeaH-

I hope you'll stick around for more because honestly, I love writing and making people smile, laugh, CrY- and... Just... Make them feel SOMETHING about a story.
This is why my first ever story is titled "Make It Possible" now that I think about it. I wanted to make it possible for myself to finally finish something, I think-

Anyways. Thank you all again for reading this. But seriously. If you haven't been outside for a few days... GO. OUTSIDE.
Have a good day!^^
