Mr. Erratum

Chapter Fifty-Nine

After work, Erratum entered his home with Horror. Horror quickly left to go to his bedroom, leaving Erratum alone. Erratum looked around, looking for a certain soulless monster. As if Pigment knew, a few seconds later, Pigment walked out of his bedroom, and entered the kitchen.

"Hello Erratum" Pigment greeted. Erratum glanced at Pigment's eyes for a bit, before replying, "hi PiGmEnt, CAn I tAlk tO yOu?" Erratum asked. Pigment nodded, and sat down. Erratum sighed, "SoMeTHinG HaPpEnED aT WoRK, I ThInK YoU MiGhT wANt TO HeAr It" Erratum explained, sitting down.

In the staffroom, It was the same as every other day. Nightmare was sitting at the computer, doing Muffet's work. Erratum was at one end of the room, while Error was at the other, completely ignoring each other.

Sans was asleep on one of the plastic chairs, his head leaning on the table, and Geno was close to doing the same, only he was being kept awake by Reaper, who was insistently talking to him. Ink, who was sitting next to Blue, was on his phone, texting somebody. Blue seemed to be marking some work, and looked rather bored doing so.

The staffroom silence was broken as the door opened, and a talkative Dream walked in, dragging a tired Dance. This was normal, so no one bothered to look up. "It was so strange though Dance. We were chickens! chickens!" Dream exclaimed. Dance gave a little chuckle. 

"But it wasn't just us. Blue was a chicken, Ink was a chicken" Dream rambled. "Nightmare was a chicken too!" Dream laughed. "what?!" Nightmare shouted, listening in on the conversation. Everyone in the room laughed a bit, and then Dream replied, "Yeah- I'm not joking, everyone was a chicken" Dream said, sitting down. 

"Well, Maybe not actually" Dream said, in thought. "Error was a chicken, but he looked like Erratum, oh! maybe they merged!" Dream exclaimed. Reaper snorted, "Your small brain probably just thinks of them as the same person" Reaper joked.

Dream gave Reaper a offended look, but couldn't help but giggle a little. "well, you were a lazy chicken- you refused to do or touch anything!" Dream countered.

Nightmare rolled his eyes, "Not to far from the truth then" Nightmare jested. Reaper scoffed, but said nothing. Dream sighed, "Well anyway, we were all physically fighting" Dream explained, "I was using a bow! I don't even know how to use a bow!" Dream chirped. There was a snort from Ink, who found the image of a chicken with a bow funny. "Oh, congrats, you managed to use a bow in your dream" Nightmare said sarcastically.

Dream groaned, "you don't get it though" Dream huffed, "It was so cool, never missing my target.." Dream gushed.

Nightmare frowned, "didn't you say your target was me?" Nightmare grumbled. Dream laughed nervously, "what gave you that idea?" He questioned. Nightmare rolled his eyes again, "It was obvious, dummy" Nightmare muttered, going back to his work.

Dream looked over to Dance, "Did you have a my strange dreams?" Dream asked, curious. Dance shrugged, "dunno, I never remember mine" Dance informed Dream lazily. Dream frowned, finding this fact sad, "what? That's horrible!" Dream shouted. Dance shrugged, "nah, not really" He said.

Dream huffed, and looked over to Ink, "what about you Ink?" Dream asked. Ink hummed, thinking. "Well, there was this one dream" Ink started. "I was being chased by pumpkins, on Halloween" Ink informed Dream. 

Blue smiled, "That's weird" He told Ink. Ink nodded enthusiastically, "I know right?" He agreed. Dream looked over to Erratum, "what about you?" Dream questioned. 

Erratum shook his head, "nAh, I doN't dReAm" Erratum admitted. Dream seemed generally shocked at this, "what? never?" He said. Erratum nodded, "YeP NeVer" Erratum agreed.

Though the subject seemed to bother Dream, he quickly went over to Sans. "Sans! you sleep all the time! you must have some strange dreams!" Dream resounded. Sans lifted one eyelid, and looked at Dream lazily. 

"Yeah, there is a strange one" Sans yawned. "I'm in a golden hallway yeah?" Sans continued tiredly. "And there's this kid, and we're fightin' each other" Sans said listlessly. "There's loads of blood and dust too" Sans said, sounding slightly creeped out.

"The kid only ever laughs though, If I try to ask 'em anything, they'd just laugh" Sans yawned again. Sans slowly laid his head back down on the table, "Thinkin' about it, It's more like a nightmare, isn't it?" Sans said, falling asleep.

Dream looked at Sans, "oh" Dream squeaked out, slightly scared. Nightmare looked around, seeing almost everyone had been slightly creeped out by it. When he looked at Erratum, he saw that the God had a thoughtful look on his face, but somehow also looked like he had seen a ghost at the same time.

Nightmare rolled his eyes, "Guys, It's just a nightmare, even sans himself didn't seem too creeped out, and he's the one he dreamt it" Nightmare complained, looking at them all in amusement.

Dream then beamed at Nightmare, "right you are brother!" Dream exclaimed, smiling. Ink laughed, and went back onto his phone, ignoring Blue's curious stare. Sighing, Error looked at the clock, "Well, we've got registration soon" Error pointed out.

Everyone gave a murmur of agreement, and everyone got ready for the day, leaving to go to their classrooms.

Pigment stayed silent, deep in thought. "All sanses are connected, right?" Pigment states, looking at Erratum, "YeAH... WhaT aRE YoU geTTing aT?" Erratum asked. Pigment hummed, "You'd have to check... but what if it's the same with multiverses?" Pigment asked.

Erratum frowned, "BuT WOulDn't EveRyoNe Get TheSE dREams TheN?" Erratum pointed out. Pigment frowned, but nodded, "yeah, you are right" Pigment stayed silent, thinking.

"What's different between sans and the rest of us?" Pigment asked, thinking. Erratum frowned, "..hE's thE FirsT saNs?" Erratum asked, and Pigment nodded. It stayed silent for awhile, until Erratum sighed. "We'd have to check his code, we're not getting any where like this" Pigment said.

Erratum sighed, nodding at the soulless monster, "YEaH yOu're RIgHT" Erratum agreed. Erratum walked off, and Pigment looked away, thinking. He had to get Erratum home.

He made a promise, after all.

A/N Hello Everyone!

I just realized while making this chapter that the only times you've been seeing Pigment is when he's freaking out! I wanted to point out that Pigment isn't like that 24/7, and he can actually go quite a few days with nothing going wrong- Even a week sometimes!

So that's why there's no coo-coo moments in this chapter. I realized I was making him into a character where the only thing noticeable and rememberable about him was that something bad happened, and it's affecting him. I don't want to be that kind of writer, so I'm trying to fix it!

Anyway, i hope you enjoyed the chapter,

Have a good day/night!
