Setting/AU/Multiverse; Nerd and Jock

When; Second time (after meeting Null and Void)

Who; Error(Erratum), Null and Void

Warnings; No major ones needed to be listed at the moment (If anyone thinks I am wrong about this, and has good reasons for thinking this, please let me know so I can post up whatever warning you think I should have)

If no one can tell, Null and Void are based off their older versions of themselves - age wise at least.

There will be spoilers for HWHBB - but what happens in Mr. Erratum might not be canon at all for HWHBB in terms of what is going on in the Unstable Multiverse and other things dealing with the various plots. Just keep that in mind while reading.

I'm going to adding characters into this AU that haven't shown up in the comic (or at least, I didn't see them showing up or were mentioned) and I might switch around characters and/or their jobs, age, ect. For example, Palette Roller, Palette for short, will be a student and not an adult. I'm adding in characters as well - both adults and teenagers/children.

I already have a lot of things and other things I want add and change about Mr. Erratum and I'm just so excited to do it~! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do writing it.

-Chapter Start-

Do not let it be said that Erratum didn't have a sense of humor.

It had taken a full night and half a day, but eventually he had found a nice sized apartment to call home for him and his little terrors. All it took was him finding a public restroom, using the sink to clean up, using his strings and magic to make him and the kids some clothing in blend in, steal some money, and then randomly pick a place that was open on short notice. He didn't see the need for a house, and apartments were the only thing that would let him go in the day of renting it, so that's what he ended up with.

An apartment that was in a decent neighborhood.

One well known for being the area where about five or ten Monsters--Erratum didn't really care all that much about how many died--were brutally murdered by a bunch of racists humans a few years ago. Long ago enough to where no one is screaming it out loud but short enough to where everyone gave him weird looks when he willingly, with two children in hold, decided to walk in the neighborhood and get a place.

If nothing else, the irony of it makes him want to laugh insanely at the fact he decided to set up roots in an area well known for Monster deaths and racism in an age where that was looked down upon. He found it hilarious that people looked worried for himself and the children. As soon as he stepped in, he became the most dangerous thing there is in this Multiverse. If those who gave him suspicious and shift eyes decided to try anything...

'If anyone so much as thinks about hurting my little terrors, I'll slow clap.' Erratum glanced around the empty place. Walls white, making him twitch, and wooden floors nicely polished. The Kitchen was opened into the living room, one hallway lending into a room and a bathroom and the last hallway on the other side leading into a master bedroom. Not too big, but nicely sized for his small family. Null was busy carrying Void around, both excitedly looking around in awe at the bare place. 'And then make those murders look like peaceful deaths when I get a hold of them.'

Those that harm even think about harming those who he considered his are not worth the air they breathe.

"Daddy?" Blinking away those thoughts, Erratum looked down to see Null, with Void in his hold, walking up to him. Taking a moment to take in what the two are wearing, he felt a bit proud at how adorable they look. They had landed in the summer months of the year, leading to the place being hot and warm he soon found out. It's only because of the Land Lady taking the time to show him how the air conditioning and heating worked that it wasn't hotter than Hotlands in the apartment.

Null wearing a light blue summer dress with little flowers designed on it that stopped below the knees made him too adorable for words in Erratum's humble opinion. It had a large bow in the front, above the skirt section, tied around the neck and was sleeveless, and the bottom of the skirt had white lace. He also had on a child-sized sun hat made out of the same material as the dress. Ending the whole outfit were little blue sandals with little white cloth flowers on them.

Void, on the other hand, wearing puffy, frilly pastel orange shorts with a bow on the front around the waist and a simple white short-sleeved shirt that was off the shoulders made him just as adorable as Null. The white shirt was frilly at the top and had little orange flowers designed on it. The shorts having white lines going down it. Then, he had the same type of fabric as the shorts, the same design, tied on top his head and around it, giving him a huge bow that honestly made it look like he had bunny ears. Ending the youngest's outfit were little strap on white sandals with little cloth pastel orange flowers on them.

Of course, all the clothing was made with his own magic and strings even if it didn't look like it. With them, he can easily find the children if it come down to it.

The heat and cold never really affected him, and he for sure didn't like showing his bones to others, so he ended up making himself a long sleeved, yellow light-weight and thin sweater, black jeans, blue socks and red basketball shoes. He also made himself a pair of black leather gloves and had on the long red scarf he had made before. He made sure to patch up the tares with his strings, making sure to make his strings look a lot less magical and more like normal thread. He debated on making something for his face, to help cover his scars and marks, but figured he would stand out too much then. In no way did he want someone coming knocking on his door and figuring him out. Doing that would put the children in danger, something he would destroy everyone and everything to make sure doesn't happen.

"yEs, NuLL?" Erratum hummed, giving the two children his attention. It still blows his mind that they see him as their father. Really, he knows he is going to fuck this up sooner or later, but he is going to give it his best shot before he messes up this whole 'parenting' thing beyond recognition.

"What do we do with all this space?" Null pouted in confusion, glancing around. "I don't get it!"

When Erratum stopped to think about it, he, himself, pretty much grew up in an endless white space because of waking up there with no memories at all. Null and Void most likely grew up in a small cage or room filled with tests of all kinds because of the Gaster of their AU using them as test subjects. Neither one of them have ever had to deal with a house, apartment or conventional home of any kind.

So, that brought he question, what does someone do with all this empty space?

'Well, nearly empty.' Erratum corrected himself, glancing at the fridge, cabinets and counters that made up the small kitchen. There were also two weird machines in a hallway closet with sliding doors. Erratum has no idea what they do, but they were there. There were also the big bowl and small bowl in the room that is called 'the bathroom', a sink, that opened weirdly enough, and a small closet. Really small in Erratum's mind, he would have to fight to stuff a normal sized body into. But, he can make it work for other needs if people come sniffing around.

They only need to give him one reason.

"FrOM wHAt I'vE sEEn FRoM oThERs HOmEs, THe SpaCE iS TO PUt StUFf." Erratum slowly said, not feeling totally sure on if he is right or not. "ONe ROoM iS GoiNG TO bE yoURs ANd VoId'S. OnE iS GOiNG tO bE MY SEwInG AND KniTtINg ROoM."

"And...we get to put stuff in our room?" Null slowly asked, brows frowned in confusion.

"YEs." Erratum nodded in agreement.

"Buh?" Void asked, blinking up at Erratum with big eyes. Null nodded in agreement with his little brother. "Yeah, Daddy, but what do we put in them?" Null asked in total confusion. "When we were with....Him, we just went into the empty room!"

"WE'Re GoIng TO FiguRE thAT oUT TogeTHeR. RiGhT NoW." Erratum stated, not wanting to be anything like the Gaster was. He might not understand either, living in a totally empty white space that was endless and only filled with things he either collected, stole or made over the long years, but he for sure didn't want that kind of life for Null and Void. They deserved a better place to call 'home'. With no screaming coming out of nowhere and demands to destroy things while pain overtakes everything, he felt he was doing a great job so far in picking the place to set up a home.

'Now where to start...' Eyes narrowing, Erratum clicked his tongue while thinking. 'I got some gold left over, can probably get  the rest of that turned into human money or whatever they use here. Can easily steal some more money from the other side of the country with a one-way portal. Just got to make sure to take out the cameras first.'

Money was simple. Honestly, he'd rather just steal the items needed. If he had been in a worse part of town, one where people with blood on their hands roamed and wouldn't ask any questions out of blood soaked and dusty respect, he would have done so without hesitation. However, even with the neighborhoods reputation, it was still a nice one. One where people would ask questions over the fact that he suddenly, without warning, help or paperwork, got furniture and food. Even if he stole them from other countries, just them suddenly showing up in the apartment would make the Land Lady at least question it.

Questions he couldn't afford. Having so much magic, coming from out of nowhere--he could easily see the government coming to try and take him and the children. He'd rather not have the kids live on the run even if he could destroy everyone and everything if push comes to shove.

"alRiGhT, wE'Re GOINg tO ThE StoRE." Erratum decided after thinking about it. Using his magic, he easily made his strings come to life. Tying them together, weaving and tightening, he soon got it into the vague shape he wanted. Then, destroying the CODES, taking the bits and reforming the CODES into something else, Erratum soon had a black messenger bag. Putting it around his shoulder, Erratum nodded to himself.

Crouching down after making sure the messenger bag was sturdy and stable, he opened up his arms. Null quickly run into them with a beaming face, Void scooted his butt on the ground, nearly crawling but more along the lines of pulling himself into Erratum's arms with a happy squeal. Wrapping his arms around them, he easily lifted them up. Shifting them as gently as he can, he mentally thanked whoever up there had mercy on him on the fact that he was way taller than the average Sans. With one long arm, he was able to carry the children in one and leave the other free. Easier to defend even if he could use his legs and feet to just as easily kill someone.

He liked having options.

Making sure he had the key for the front door, Erratum walked out the door and locked it. Turning around to look at the sky, walking close to the railing to do so, so nothing blocked his view, he hummed at seeing how bright it was. Shaking his head a bit, he went to the steps near his door. Living at the end of a row of apartments in an apartment complex was nicer than he thought. He only had to deal with one person as a neighbor technically and the other person seemed to be gone. He hasn't heard any signs of life from the place. Above him and even below him, he could hear faint noises if they got too loud. If need be, he can use magic to hear them better. But he liked how he didn't hear screaming every moment of every day that would stretch on for years.

"Hey tall, dark and glitching!" A voice called out just as he walked down the stairs. Tilting his head, he saw that it was the Land Lady, sitting at an outdoor table, reading some magazines with a stack in front of her.

The Land Lady was actually pretty young, only in her early to mid 20's. Her blond hair was extremely short on one side, and slowly got longer as it went around her head to end under her chin at the other point - an asymmetrical bob cut. The ends were dyed in various colors. Various because she mentioned she uses one-day hair dye to dye it all kinds of colors. Her skin, for the most part, was a healthy peach color with some areas purely white. Her eyes were two different colors, one brown and the other blue, and had a twinkle of life in them. She was actually pretty tall, being the same height as Erratum. And Erratum hasn't seen anyone taller than him, let alone the same height as himself, yet in this Multiverse.

"lAnD lADy." Erratum greeted, walking up to her to see what she wanted.

The Land Lady sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose even though her twinkle in her eye betrayed her outward emotions. "I've already told you, my name is James Mary Miller--you can call me James." She chuckled finally, looking amused. "I don't know why you keep calling me 'Land Lady'."

"iT's YouR TiTLE." Erratum frowned, not understanding the issue. He is just showing respect for her. When they met she had said she was 'Land Lady James'. And this woman deserved at least some of his respect. if only for not even blinking at the sight of him and allowing him a place in her apartment complex. Even when he pulled out gold to pay for the first few months she had taken it in stride.

Although, on the other hand, that did speak volumes on what kind of shit she has seen. But Erratum had no room to talk or assume; he's seen a lot of shit himself over the years.

"Land Lady! Land Lady!" Null cheered with a giggle.

"Lah Lay! Lah Lay!" Void joined in, clapping his hands in delight.

"Seems I don't have a choice." James sighed, giving up on getting them to call her by her name. "Anyway, what're you doing?" She asked, seeing that the small family looked to be about to head out.

"i NEEd iTeMS FoR thE HOme." Erratum admitted, using his free hand to scratch his scarred cheek. "WhAT GoEs INTo A HoME AnyWAy?" He decided to ask, having no clue on where to start.

"That explains a whole lot about you. I'm not even going to even say anything about how you only came here with the clothes on your backs." James stated as bluntly as Erratum before pulling out a pad of paper under the magazines, a pen out of her pocket. "I'll make a list of things. There's a mall, a place filled with different kinds of stores, about five blocks down the right. You should also look at home magazines or get yourself a cell phone. You can always ask the internet about things you don't know, although keep in mind that not everything is truthful on it and people might lie." She rattled off, writing things down in a quick but neat handwriting.

"ThAnKS." Erratum sighed in relief. Even if there was a chance of James trying to trick him he would take any help. He wanted the best for Null and Void and that meant getting a home set up for them.

"Nah. Besides, us freaks need to stick together, yeah?" James glanced up to Erratum, gesturing with her free hand to the white patches of skin and her eyes. "Having vitiligo and heterochromia didn't make it easy growing up. Never mind my parents deciding to use a stereotypical and commonly seen as a boy name for me and being so tall with little to no chest, ass or curves. I used to be ashamed of myself; how I looked and my own name. Didn't help that I lived in a small town where everyone knew everyone." She shrugged, lips twitching up into a smile. "Main reason I jumped at the chance to take over the apartment complex from my Great Aunt was to restart, get away from all those people who looked at me and treated me horribly. Well, that and be able to renovate the place. I wanted an apartment complex that had doors tall enough to fit people like me through. High five for all the tall people out there!" James snorted in humor, glancing to the very tall front doors. A lot of people said it wasn't needed until they saw her standing up. Made them shut up real fast and in a hurry. "Anyway my parents were nice, yes, but I couldn't live there anymore."

"i UnDeRstANd iN A WaY." Erratum admitted, thinking of his own Multiverse and the various people in it. Some might have been his, but in the end, it wasn't enough to make it worth it in staying any longer. Not when it's obvious when almost all the Multiverse didn't want or need him. "iT NEvER FaDES."

"The whisper, the voices, the anger, the sadness--it never truly goes away." James agreed, finishing up the long list. Handing it to Erratum, she beamed up at him. "That's why I didn't turn you down you know? It wasn't because of the gold, but because you and me? We're alike. And if we don't stick together and help each other out, who will?"

Right then and there, without even consciously thinking about it, this woman become one of Erratum's. She claimed him as one of her's, she understood in ways others couldn't even if she didn't know the bigger picture, so this younger woman would be one of his.

After all, freaks needed to stick together.

Taking the long list, Erratum glances at it, seeing words that he doesn't really understand. 'What the hell is shampoo?' Erratum eventually just put the list in his messenger bag, mentally telling himself to get a cell phone first so he can just ask the internet what the hell some of these things are. "ThAnKS." Erratum thanks once more, giving James a small smile.

"No prob." James waves it off, giving her own grin. "I also recommend getting some groceries afterwards. You'll need food to feed your kids, right? Although there are places you can buy meals if you can't cook too."

"foOD." Erratum nods to himself, ignoring the twinge in his SOUL at how James' words of 'No prob' reminded him of Fresh from back in his Multiverse. 'Maybe I should give them different nicknames so I don't mess up and get this place and the other mixed up... Then again, I never did look up what their counterparts were called either. Can be fun though; can call Fate 'Asshole' or 'Bastard'.' Erratum absentmindedly thought to himself, lifting a hand to wave goodbye to his Land Lady, Null and Void doing them same.

Following the instructions to where to go was easy. Erratum even saw what looked to be a grocery store on his way, knowing that he would stop there after getting the other items needed the Mall.

What wasn't easy was the stares he got.

So many humans just stopped and stared, or stared while going on about their way. It made Erratum twitch. He is used to getting stared out, but usually an attack follows after it. Makes him go on edge expecting one to come. The stares don't feel threatening on the other hand. He mainly feels shock coming off of them, uncertainty and disbelief on some others. knowing that more than a few Monsters were killed in the area, right around the area in front of the very place he lives in fact, he's not too shocked at the stares he was getting.

Swap had once told him it was rude to stare on the other hand and he doesn't get it. If it is so rude then why are so many people doing it?

Luckily before Erratum could snap or some idiot did or said something he found the Mall. the Miscalculation family all blinked up at the four story building. Taking in how huge it was.

"Wooooow~" Null gasped, eyes going wide at how many people were coming and going. Never mind the metal things moving around the building too.

"Ah?" Void waved one hand at one of the metal things, getting Erratum's attention.

"thAt'S a MOtoRcyCle. NExT TO iT is a CaR." Erratum bluntly explained as the two children pointed at things, walking up to the automatic doors and ignoring all the stares he was getting. He might not know or understand a lot but he knows what those two things are. He's thrown, destroyed and was thrown into them often enough to know their basic names at the least.

Making sure not to touch or run into the various people shopping, he bent down and walked into the Mall. Straightening up, Erratum caught sight of a huge map for the Mall within a few moments. Walking up to it, he quickly memorized it just in case. The names of places might be confusing but luckily the colored numbers by them said what they were in a list on the side of the map. Putting them into sections. First stop was a phone, so he eventually decided to chance a place called 'Undernet Electronics' to see if he could find one there. He knew undernet was a Monster version of the internet in most AUs. If nothing else, the person working in there could point him in the right direction if he's wrong.

Having a game plan, he then walked and took a cart, seeing that people were putting bags in them and pushing them around to make it easier. Later, if the cart gets filled or at the end of his adventure, when he knows no one is looking and there are no cameras, he'll use a portal to empty the cart, putting his things in the apartment with no one being the wiser about it. Putting Void in the little child seat, watching how other parents are doing it, and putting Null in the cart, he was set and ready to go.

'Better stop and get gold exchanged into the local currency first. Then a phone.' Mentally going through his growing plan, he kept an eye out on the people and the stores. Nose wrinkling at the various smells. If the voices got any louder, he'd feel like he was back in the ANTI-VOID.

An image of the ANTI-VOID being an empty mall entered his head.

'Eh, would be worse. At least in the ANTI-VOID I could run for miles, jump, not be restricted much in movement.' Erratum glanced around as he pushed the cart. 'This Mall reminds me of a huge fish bowl. Or that one AU where everyone was stuck in those huge containers' Erratum shivered at the thought of that weird AU he had to destroy. 'And they call me insane--at least I don't create weird shit that threatens the stability of the Multiverse just for shits and giggles!'

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Null looked at all the passing windows with sparkling eyes. The things in them seemed to sparkle from the lights, giving them a glow.

Most things he had no idea what they were. Everything was so new and exciting.

'And it's all thanks to Daddy!' Null beamed, bouncing where he sat in the cart. 'He can't take this away! No more ouchies, no more tests, no more screams! Daddy saved us and will keep us safe~!'

Glancing to his Daddy, Null giggled when they turned and headed into a store--Erratum needing to bend down to get it. Null thought that his Daddy was silly but other people were even more silly. It's like they've never seen a Daddy before now! One as nice, safe and perfect as his own. He does know that not every can be as lucky as him and Void in having the best Daddy, so he understands the stares. Doesn't make them any less silly!

Eventually, Void caught his attention. His cute little brother waving his arms around, pointing at this and that, making noises and cooing out. Walking to that side of the cart, grabbing onto the sides to stay steady whenever the cart moves, Null joined in.

This was a new adventure! One without any pain involved. Giggling together, the two children cheered when Erratum was finally done in the store filled with gold things. Never once noticing the shell shocked look the worker had on their face or how Erratum stuffed huge, thick envelopes into his messenger bag.

"alRIGhT. PhOnE nExT ANd AfTeR thAT...." Null glanced up, seeing his Daddy pull out the list the Land Lady made. "BEdS? yEaH, bEds aND THinGs LiKE thAT SoUNd GoOD."

"We get to sleep on a bed? Not the floor?" Null asked in delight, giggling when his Daddy reached down and patted the top of his head.

"yEaH. YoU GeT TO EvEN pICk iT OUT--sO LOnG aS iT cAN fiT IN thE ROOm."

"Yay~! Daddy's the best!"

"i DoN'T kNOW abOUt ThAt."

---------------------------------{UNDERNET ELECTRONICS}-----------------------------------

"U-Um...." A young human male adult stared up with wide eyes at the only costumer in the store. His name tag reading 'Dan'. "How can I help you....sir?" He eventually asked, deciding to just roll with it. He has seen way too many Monsters in his life to be too freaked out right now.

When he's off the clock he can freak out over the fact that a Monster who is taller than the door frame, with so many cracks, scars, chips, or whatever Skeleton Monsters call them, came in.

"i nEEd A pHONe." Erratum bluntly stated, glancing around the store and taking everything in.

"Oh! Well, we have a great selection and phone plans available." Dan beamed, holding back on cooing when he noticed the little child in the blue started to reach for the phone charms. "What kind of phone are you looking for?" Dan asked, trying to focus all his attention on the costumer. "They're over there if you want to check them out." He pointed to a table with the demo phones on them for customers to check out. The shelves under the table held phone cases.

'You can coo and freak out off the clock man!' Dan mentally scolded himself, wanting nothing more than to pout. 'Man, can't wait for summer vacation. Place is more lax when the students come looking for summer jobs.'

Erratum glanced around at the phone options, having no idea what the difference was other than names and how they looked. Descriptions at the bottom didn't help either. However, in the end, he pointed to the biggest touch phone they had. If only so that it could fit in his hands better than the other options.

"That one is called the 'Blackhole', mainly because of how big it is and how much data it has available. Is that the one you want?" Dan explained and asked, coming from around the front counter to come over to where the family was.

"iT's ThE onLY OnE THaT kInDa FITs IN mY hANDs." Erratum bluntly stated, moving the demo phone around his hand. 'SO, yEs."

"I don't blame you." Dan said, equally bluntly, before going on. "Now, you can pick out a free phone case for it. Options are right under it, in the shelf. After that, meet me at the front counter and I'll set it up for you and get you a phone plan."

Humming, Erratum crouches and bends down to look at the options. Eventually, he picked out a phone case that was black but with a glossy galaxy on it. Stars, planets, moons, suns--it all was on it. And when he moved it, he found out that behind the glossy pictures was glitter. All the in the shapes of stars. Having made his choice, he stands up only to blink when he notices Null and Void holding something up to him.

"WhAT IS iT?" Erratum frowns in confusion, bending down to see what is in their hands. Null is holding a pink plastic bunny on a chain. Void, on the other hand, had a baby yellow bird of some kind.

"I don't know Daddy. But they're cute!" Null grinned, Void giggling in agreement. Erratum just shrugs and pulls the cart to the front counter, putting the case on it before taking the things and putting it with them.

"Oh, you want phone charms too?" Dan noticed the cute little charms. "They're on clearance--they're leftovers from Easter. I think they're like, 60% off. So, three dollars each, if that." Dan says, picking up a black phone strap. "You'll need to buy and hook up a phone strap to put the charms on--which I can do for you if you want--and you can always add more charms to the end or switch them out."

"alRiGhT." Erratum shrugged, liking the idea of carrying around little charms his sons picked out for him.

"Great! Now, about phone plans--"

'This is going to be a long day.' Erratum blankly thinks to himself.

-------------------------------{FURNITURE FOR ALL}----------------------------------

"Alright, I'll need your credit card, sir--"

"DoN'T HAvE OnE." Erratum states, reaching into his messenger bag, being careful when he notices his new phone, and pulling out an envelope. "I'lL BE pAyInG IN CaSH."

"....What?"

"CASh. NoT, NoR DO i oWN, A cREDiT CaRD." Erratum slowly said, looking at the worker like they were slow.

"You're buying a toddler bed, a child's sized bed--both over $200--bedding for both, wall decorations, a child sized vanity, bed curtains, paint for walls, curtains for windows, lamps, a couch, seats, a dinning table, chairs, clocks, dishware, and all kinds of kitchen supplies. Never mind the closets and other things." The worker listed off just as slowly. "That's well over $2,000. Not including tax, shipping fees and setting them up."

"OkAY." Erratum shrugged. Looking at the price that was now, finally, up on the cash register, he pulls out the amount.

".....What is my life?"

"i ASk mYsElf tHAt EvERyDaY."

-----------------------------------{BATH AND BODY WORKS}-----------------------------

"OH mY StaRS...." Erratum breathed out, looking as if he was seeing the stars for the first time.

"This here is where all our hygiene, bath and body works for Skeleton Monsters are. It goes into the next shelves too." A kind worker explained.

'I have no idea what shampoo is...' Erratum thought, picking up a bottle with a trembling hand. 'But anything chocolate can't be bad.'

A whole section of things that smell like various kinds of chocolates. Everything from soap, toothpaste, shampoo to hand soap, candles and bath-bombs.

"yOU AlL WiLL bE MiNE." Erratum whispered possessively in a low tone, handing off a bottle of the stuff to Null to sit in the cart. The worker had to turn around to hide her smile and laughter. Never before had they had such an interesting reaction to their products before. This must be what obsession looks like.

Erratum, ignoring the worker, doesn't care if it's in the female section or male section--he's getting at least one of each of whatever has 'chocolate' written on it!

------------------------------------{HOURS LATER; HOME}------------------------------------

Looking at all the boxes, plastic bags and other things gathered in what was once an empty living room, Erratum had to thank the power of portals. Made things a hundred time faster.

Glancing to the side, his lips twitched up at the sight of Null and Void curled together, sleeping in a pile of blankets and pillows. Using them as a makeshift bed until the orders come in and are put together. Getting up, he decided to carefully and silently as he can put away things that he can, or at least out of the way until it is needed.

Gently grabbing the boxes with the dishware in them, Erratum walked to the kitchen and started picking cabinets to use for them. However, just has he picked up a plate, a face came to mind.

'Swap.....little Blueberry......' Shaking his head, Erratum frowned deeply. He has no idea what is going on back in that Multiverse. With how often Inky created though, with how often he went on a creative streak, he can see the AU's starting to destroy one another if Fate didn't force someone else in his shoes. Something he never wanted but knew was possible.

All of those back there though, well, it'd be better for them without him there. While Nightmare's Gang and Fresh would surely miss him, for whatever insane reason that might be, it's better that he's gone. He feels better about it anyway even if he misses the others. He has Null and Void now. Taking care of them, seeing their smiles, it brightens him up. Makes him feel warm and lighter. Not like the worthless, bloody and dust covered trash that he is.

'It kinds feels like when those two smiled up at me--' Erratum started to think before jolting, forcing those thoughts and feelings away. 'No use in thinking worthless things.' Erratum frowns, pushing his mind to focus on putting things away.

'Better to focus on the here and now, not on impossibilities and what you can never have, say or do anything about.'

{OMAKE; What if Null and Void were teenagers when they landed in with Erratum?}

[Part 1]

[Their First Shopping Adventure!]

-Start-

"This here is our section of beauty products, mainly makeup, for Skeleton Monsters." The employee said with a kind smile, gesturing to the shelves around them. "We also have various catalogs that you can take home, where you can then order them online, through the phone or have the store order it for you."

"Oooo~!" Null and Void both cooed out, looking at all the different colors of blush available.

"Daddy, can we get more than one?" Void asked, bouncing in excitement. Null quickly turns with a pleading look, shaking from the excitement.

"gET WHaTEVeR anD hoWEvER mUCH YoU waNt." Erratum shrugged, not caring as he dumps a stack of catalogs in the cart. Not like he can't steal the money needed if he doesn't have enough on him.

"Really?!" Both Void and Null gasped. Erratum nodded, only to glitch a bit when the two teens quickly rushed him, hugging him and giggling. Snorting, smiling a bit, Erratum shook his head fondly while the two rushed back to the makeup.

"SO EaSY TO maKE tHEM haPPy." Erratum sighed. Glancing around, Erratum's gaze stopped at a small container. The sign on it said "FREE SAMPLES". Shrugging, Erratum reached in and pulled a thing out. Lifting it up, he narrowed his eyes. "LiP GlOss. StRaWbErRy DelIghT." Blinking, he unscrewed the top. Squeezing a bit out on to his finger, he tasted it.

"ThAT IN NO WaY tAStES lIKe strAWbErRY! deLiGhT, MY AsS."

The teens blink and look at their frowning father, glancing at the small tube of lip gloss. Glancing at one another, Null and Void nodded to each other as they thought the same thing.

'Not getting that one!'

-Chapter End-

On a first note, because my dear girlfriend asked a question and I love her too much to not figure out an answer for it even if I don't normally do it, I have figured out Erratum's official height!

He is, in HWHBB and in this story (this might change depending on the story, like if he gets turned into a bitty for example) he is 9'0'' - 9 feet tall! With this height figured out, I figured out some other official heights for other characters coming in and figured out heights for other characters in my other stories and Multiverses. For example, with Erratum's height figured out, I can say that Miscue (my Error from Miscuedverse) is 9'01'', 9 feet 1 inches, because I used to describe him to others (mainly June lol) by saying he is an inch taller than Erratum.

Yes, Erratum towers over nearly everyone in Nerd and Jock - Monsters and people in his Multiverse are naturally taller than those in NaJ in most cases. What is 6 foot in one Multiverse might translate into a different height in another. It doesn't help that Erratum is one of the tallest Monsters in his own Multiverse. It'd be like if Erratum went into a Bitty Multiverse - he would suddenly find himself tiny compared to his usual height, but still taller than other bitties more than likely.

It's the main reason you will read about Erratum bending down to go through doors. Most doors, in the USA, are typically 6'8'' (6 foot, 8 inches). With him being 9'0'', he has to bend down to get through them unless they're taller than average.

Erratum landed earlier in this version than the older one. During April, where it is starting to get warmer as it heads off into summer. At the end of May will start Summer Vacation, the new school year starting at the start of September. This gives me plenty of time to set things up, get some plots and subplots rolling, get some new additions/changes I got planned out in the open, ect. This is set before the comic starts by the way. Gives me ton of time. 

~Gives a space for things to happen and for people to meet~

Also, a big heads up, little to nothing will be canon here. The butterfly effect is a big thing to know of and think of.

If anyone wants there to be a character list (at the end of the book or end of the parts so it stays in order) please let me know. I'm making one for stories that deal with my Multiverses, so doing one based off of stories themselves I don't mind at all doing. So long as it helps you all keep track of everyone and helps I don't see the issue on taking the time to do one.

As you can already see with this chapter/part, I have changed things up and added things in! And more are to change and be added~! I'm very much excited for this story. Always did have a soft spot for "Mr. Erratum" as it was the first one I did in the old FiaDD.

I added in the omake for fun. I had a funny thought while writing this part on what if the kids were teenagers. Null and Void love feminine things. They are boys and identify as being male and do not have to be females, in my opinion, to like feminine things. I mean, honestly, girls get away with a lot more boys can in the USA if you think about it; if I walked out wearing an outfit found in the male section of the store, I wouldn't get many looks or none at all. If a boy did the same thing only with clothing found in the girl section, like a skirt or frilly shirt, he would get a ton of looks or worse. Double standards in my eyes.

What I'm getting at though is that Null and Void love it and actually view feminine things as safe and comfort, and even associate it with Erratum. Mainly because the first outfits he got them were feminine. It also helps that they are things they have never seen on or around the Gaster of their AU. So, I do honestly think that if they were teenagers in this part, they would have gotten makeup and other things like that. And because Nerd and Jock has Monsters being integrated into the world for so long, I do think that there would be products just for certain types of Monsters because of the verity and having different kinds of bodies. From makeup to hygiene products.

And yes, Erratum did buy a ton of chocolate scented things and may totally try to taste them behind the scenes.
