"Soooooo.....how did it go??" Error growled low in his "throat".
"FoR tHe LaSt TiMe, BluE, FINE." He answered once again to Blue's pestering.
The short skeleton had nonstop asked him questions about the meeting, specifically the rules and such. Especially when it came down to his concerns for his friend, while touching to Error, it was starting to get annoying.

Blue meanwhile didn't look all too satisfied as he crossed his arms and tilted his head, then shook it side to side.
"So you're not going to mention the beanie hat Ink happens to be wearing?" That shot a jumpstart in him, then made him turn around.
Just as he guessed, Ink had put the thing on and was currently talking to Dream.
God damn it, Ink...
"Wellll, assuming that's yours. Since I noticed it earlier and all...." Error resisted to flip him the finger as he instead gave him a dry look, with a portion of his face glowing a bright blue.
"We'Re NoT tAlKiNg AbOuT tHaT." Raising a visible brow, Blue appeared a little cocky.
"Ohhh?"

"ShUt Up..." he muttered, when he felt a arm drape across his shoulders.
"Yo, yo, brah! Where's my hat?" Error hissed at Fresh and bodily threw him off, he innocently raised his hands in mock surrender once he did.
"DoN't StArT nInEtIeS cRaCksHIP. And for the last time; DoN't FREAKiNg ToUcH mE!" His head sunk into his scarf as he grumbled;
"I sWeAr...YoUr BoTh LiKe ThE pAiR oF aNnOyInG bRoThErS I nEvEr AsKeD fOr..." Blue made a face as he then giggled.
"Awww, but you love us!" Error gave in and sighed.
"YeAh, YeAh, WhAtEvEr....Be LuCkY fOr ThAt. Or I sWeAr-" Tutting, Blue darted to his side.
"Oh, come on now, Error! It's not like it's a privilege or anything!"

The frown he wore softened up into something else, but not a smile. And for once the voices weren't the ones saying what random thought occurred in his mind.
You're right....it's not, not one I deserve at least.
He flinched as he felt a finger poke his cheek.
"Our blue broseph here would be right! Besides, we both know you can't stay mad at us!"
"YeAhhh, KeEp TeLlInG yOuRsElF tHaT, FreSh..."
"Mhm, you too bro!"
"Hey...Error?" He switched his attention to Blue.
"YeAh?"
"....I don't know if you're up to it or anything, but would you like to come back to my house?" Error dipped his head diagonally.
"WhY aSk NoW, BluE?" Chewing on his glove, Blue thought that over.
"You looked a little sad earlier....and I couldn't help but wonder if you wanted to hang a bit for a break!" He chuckled once he got his answer.

"I mEaN...." he trailed on and snorted. "WhY nOt, I gUeSs?"
Blue's smile brightened and he placed his hands on his hips.
"The magnificent Blue will most surely make your time with us great!" Then, as he started to walk away while tugging on Fresh's sleeve, he announced;
"I'll get everything ready! Let me know when you're ready to come over!" A laugh managed to escape him, and he nodded.
"YoU gOt It."

The two exited the room with Blue broad in the lead, and leaving anyone else left in there with him. Error was about to leave himself, but couldn't help taking a glance back at the other two remaining, Ink and Dream. He studied them curiously as they inaudibly chatted on as he watched, frowning, he soon wondered when they'd be leaving. He did after all have a few things to do while he was here, so it wouldn't hurt once they were gone.
Then, he saw something odd. Error blinked and squinted more closely, and saw it again. Specifically staring at Ink, what made up his design and person overall....flickered. Like a glitch, exactly how he would. His teeth gritted, tense, and noticed something else. His clothes mainly were different, they were his old ones. Wait, old ones?

Confused and thinking he might be seeing things, he folded out his glasses and fixed them onto his face. It was still there, when suddenly, Ink's smiling face distorted into one of hatred and hurt. Error jerked in place, realizing it was directed at him. But as quickly as it came, it was gone in a blink.
He stood, frozen as he felt his glasses slide off slowly. Then there was Dream, who sensed his startled aura and looked back at him. Expression deeply concerned as he stepped away from Ink's side and closer to him.
"Are you alright, Error?"
