Error stretches his strings up to cover the white walls with blue, giving him the only reminder of the one 'good' skeleton that doesn't hate his guts. He closes his eyes, relaxing.

~Meanwhile~

A certain pair of skeletons are more perturbed than Nightmare and his gang by the way Error has been behaving. The first skeleton looks like a normal Sans, except for the white jacket, glitch around the right eye socket and the GIANT ANGRY WOUND ACROSS HIS CHEST. He also wears the red scarf of his brother. 

(Author Chan: Error wears the black scarf from Blue. Blue wears the blue scarf from Error, and Geno wears the scarf of his dead brother. Scarf Trio. We need a fight sim with the Scarf Trio. Like the Bad Time Trio, but Scarves. Imagine the possibilities. Someone in the comments: Are you okay? Author Chan: *In a serious dead inside tone* Everything is wrong with me.) 

His name is Geno Sans, and he hails from Aftertale. However, today he has a rare guest. The guest is quite recognizable in clothing choice alone. His clothing has all the colors of the gay rainbow and he generally talks like someone stuck in the era of 90's speech. He is also known as the parasite that hops host bodies whenever he feels like. The guest is none other than Fresh, and both of them know something.

"Fresh. I assume Error's new numb state has drug your parasitic self out to discuss something with me." Fresh looks at Geno, shrugging. He's a good host body but has too much determination to have a good host personality.

"Last I checked, you had a stalker." Geno flushes real quick, blue covering his face.

"My stalker refuses to listen to me, anyway. Error isn't on a killing spree, but...he's never been this empty of emotion, right?" Fresh nods.

"I'd know, I'm practically the walking example of the state of being empty of emotion." Geno quiets down, Fresh's grin faltering slightly as he sweats. Error is easy to predict. The guy practically despises Fresh. Geno, not so much. Sometimes he seems okay with Fresh, and sometimes he...doesn't. Fresh doesn't like an unpredictable person. He prefers interacting with someone whose reaction he expects and can control. Geno is the epitome of a person Fresh normally wouldn't be caught dead interacting. Geno turns.

"Fresh, don't you have people to manipulate or a world to torture?"

"Nat really. I am kinda bored right now, and just don't want to be alone right now. Error has me spooked. I tried to talk to the guy, tried to make him attack me, but he just deflated after a minute and walked out through a portal, didn't even try to throw me through the portal." Geno looks at Fresh, grabbing his hand and smiling at Fresh.

"You being here is better than Reaper any day."

~Meanwhile~

Reaper is watching as his lover touches that parasitic filth. His grip on his scythe nearly breaks the weapon, and he slowly calms down, heading home. He'll go back, teach Geno that he is his now. Nobody else is allowed to touch him, to have him. Geno will remember who he belongs to. Reaper grins, pulling up a facade for everyone in his AU, the only thoughts in his head excitement about his plans for tomorrow. He'll break every bone that parasite touched his Geno with. He'd make sure of that.

~Meanwhile~

Blue lays down on his bed, rolling over to face the wall. The bedroom door opens, casting light into the room as Honey checks on him for the millionth time that day. Honey and Ink talk and Blue hears every word.

"How'd Blue do? Is he back to his old self?" A soft amount of sighing is heard before Ink speaks.

"No. He still refuses to engage in combat. We can't make him engage in it, he backs away before the fight begins. He and Dream talked earlier today, however, Dream hasn't spoken about it at all. I'm worried Blue will never return to his innocent old self."

"Yeah, all he really does here is sleep. He's become lazier than I am. I've had to use every excuse in the books to get Alphys away for his recovery."

"Perhaps...Alphys could get him back to the person he was, perhaps letting him get back to the routine instead of treating him like a sick patient will fix his issues."

"Do you think I should let him have complete free reign of his life again?"

"No. Tell anyone he hangs with to update you constantly, or something to the effect, so you can keep an eye on him without being stalkerish." Honey laughs.

"Alright. Thanks for the help."

"No problem, Honey. Give him a few weeks, I'm sure he'll be better. The problem is we've never had Error kidnap anyone, so we don't know what Error did to him." A portal sounds, and Ink leaves. Blue focuses on the blue scarf, closing his eyes.

I gotta get out of this hellhole soon.
