You all saw the title so I'll jump right into this

Currently, I'll be working from 10 AM until 2:30-ish PM so I won't have as much time to write as I once did before, so updates will be even slower then they are now.

On the flip side, 13,500 words on the ds blue redemption arc and it's still going and since y'all deserve a treat here have this small preview:

TW: Blood and also mention of s#lf-h#rm

---

Blood is coming out less, and it's more congealed, so he grabs a fresh gauze and wraps it so that it applys light pressure without cutting off circulation. He looks at his work, happy to see the blood isn't staining the gauze, and now considers his options.

He squirms away from any close contact, and starts pacing the room. He could go ahead and leave and break Nightmare out, but he feels there's something missing in this puzzle piece and that he can't figure out on his own. As he considers his options...

".. Error?" Blue is blinking furiously, adjusting to the light as he tries to focus on Error.

Error gulps down his fear. This is something serious. "Can you tell me why you were doing..." Error gestures towards Blue's arms, "...That?"

Blue's eyes widened as he jumps a bit, sitting completely upright, though he didn't get up.

"Calm down, jeez, I was afraid you would die of blood loss, don't give me a heart attack," Error mentions, rubbing his temple. "Seriously. What the hell was that?"

Blue doesn't reply immediately. Error gives him time to think (he just lost a lot of blood, and on top of that also woke up, he's probably still figuring out what happened), and after a minute or two, Blue speaks.

"I don't know. That was a first for me," Blue says, and his words are carefully chosen. Error raises a brow.

"A first in what context?"

Blue wasn't expecting that. "Um- first time I ever, um, harmed myself."

Error snorted. "I had to treat you again because you were bleeding through the bandages. I saw what I saw and the sight said otherwise." Blue was lying, but why?

"... Why are you asking this?" Blue asked. "It's not like you'd particularly ca-"

Error cuts him off. "Not care? Are you serious? I walk in on you practically half dead, I treat you both in that hallway and in here, and you're saying I don't care? I mean- I do really hate you for what you did to me, but dear god, you scared me half to fucking death, Blue!"

Blue doesn't look Error in the eye, and after a minute of silence Error gets tired of it. He sighs.

"Look, if this is about the while 'I miss you', just keep it to yourself," Error mentioned.

"It's not entirely that," Blue says. "But it's nothing that would be important to you."

"What is it, then?"
