Chapter 18 (AKA Wheel of Lovers)
*FreeVerse (Cont because I don't have much more for the DeterminedVerse and we are at the point where I'm gonna start the 'romance' part of the book, pretty late, I know. Heh.)*
Error blinks, looking up at a blue-eyelight face with a worried smile covering the lower half.
"Heya, we were a little worried you wouldn't wake again. Now, before you freak out, I have a couple of things to clarify, if that's okay with you." Error slowly nods.
"Okay, Blue."
"First things first. Even though we look like those you know, height, weight, eye color, and personality discrepancies are to be expected. I don't shout all the time, and generally have a calmer, more pun-filled personality. I'm also only 1 inch shorter than you, whereas whoever you knew as Blue was likely shorter. So too the rest of the multiverse full of skeletons are different from the ones you knew." Error nods, and Blue look-alike smiles. (ErrorBerry)
"Second, all the monsters you are meeting have never met you before. Perhaps your multiverse has monsters that look like us that you've met, but this multiverse is different. Okay?" Error nods. Blue hums softly.
"That's it." A rainbow portal appears behind Blue, and a recognizable face pops out.
"Fresh!" FV Fresh nods.
"Tho I'm not from your unradical mult-I-verse, I am thrilled you could come to our rad-tastic mult-I-verse." Error nods, smiling.
"Even if you aren't my Fresh, it's nice to see a very familiar and very friendly face." Fresh grins and Error slowly stands up, hugging Fresh. (ErrorFresh)
"It really is nice to see you again." Fresh chuckles softly, smiling. Error pulls away from the hug, a soft blush on his face. He leaves the house of Life to find his alternate self, FV Error, having a very VERY passionate kissing session with FV Nightmare and FV Reaper. If it weren't so...disconcerning to see, Error would have been impressed the three managed a threesome kiss. But Error was very disconcerted, but quickly changed his emotion when Nova runs over, giggling loudly. Nova runs past Error, his child-like laughter echoing.
"I'm gonna getcha!" FV Fell (or Cherry, or Red, or UF Sans, whatever you call him) follows close behind Nova, stopping when Nova hides behind Error, giggling still.
"Ah, you're the new Error, I was just...uh...entertaining your kiddo while you were sleeping and getting educated on the fact your origin place and this one ain't the same." Error nods, stepping to the side so they can continue their little game. Fell grins at Nova, who playfully shrieks and starts running, getting pulled into a hug by FV Fell, giving the skelechild a noogie. Blue chuckles softly. (ErrorCherry/ErrorFell)
"Nova and Fell seem to have hit it off." Error nod, a soft blush on his face. A warm feeling overtakes all the skeletons in the area, signaling the arrival of Nightmare's 'twin' brother, Dream. FV Dream walks over to Error, smiling.
"Hey. I heard there was another Error, but it's different hearing about this odd situation, and seeing it." Error nods.
"Yeah, and where I came from, Dream's aura never affected me. But now I get why monster of all kinds like being near you." FV Dream blushes gently. (Insomnia, greatest name for a ship ever)
"I'm glad you've learned something new today." Error nods, covering his cheeks, hiding a yellow blush of his own. Error perks up, watching Nova play with Fell, smiling gently.
"My, my. A new skeleton, who looks very very~ single." Error looks at Lust, shrugging.
"Lust, the flirt of the multiverse. Sorry, but I'm not-"
"Interested?~ Don't lie. I saw how you blushed around Dream, and Fell, and you clearly had a thing for Blue and Fresh. What's one more choice?~" Error looks to the side, blushing softly. (Errotic)
"Look, I gotta take care of Nova, and...most of my choices have hurt me once or twice before." Lust hums thoughtfully.
"Think it over, maybe get to know the people pursuing you the most, and make a decision." Error blinks, looking at Lust.
"Thanks." Lust nods.
"I'm not lustful because I want to be. I'm lustful because I had to be. My universe was bad, but I made a conscious decision to leave, and to be more about Love, healthy and requited, and avoid Lust, one-night-stands, and morning-afters." Error grins.
"You've become a champion for healthy love affairs." Lust chuckles softly.
"As if you're one to talk. People don't gain that much LV without hurting a lot of people." Error goes silent, a dark aura surrounding him.
"I thought I was doing good at hiding it...How do you know?" Lust shrugs.
"It's not hard for one in tune with their emotion to sense the turbulence that is LV." Error looks around and sighs softly.
"Keep an eye on Nova, I need to go be by myself." Lust nods and Error opens a portal to the emptiest AU he knows. Error steps through, taking a walk through the dusty world of DustTale. Error closes his eyes, sighing softly.
"Things keep getting more hectic, and I can't keep up. Too many people, too much noise." Error blinks, stopping, and looking at his feet.
"I wish someone better would step up and take Nova. Take care of him. He deserves better than I can give him." Error slowly drops to a crouching ball position, holding his head.
"Damn, you don't seem well." Error jumps, gasping as Dust grins, waving.
"You're the newcomer. From the other multiverse." Dust walks forward, grabbing Error's wrists.
"If ya know how to go back, can you send me there? I want to have something to do, and this place has too much 'good' feelings for my liking." Error freezes, looking down at the ground.
"You don't know what you're asking for. Even if I could send you to that hell, I wouldn't. You would be persecuted and lied about for the amusement of others." Dust blinks, backing away.
"Oh..." Error sighs.
"Sorry to disappoint..." Error turns to leave, but Dust grabs one of his wrists.
"It ain't a complete disappointment. I got to meet you, and that's pretty awesome." Error flushes yellow, and huffs, pulling his arm close to his chest.
"Thanks for that underhanded compliment." Dust chuckles.
"You're welcome." Dust gently grabs Error's hand and places a gentle kiss on the latter's hand before releasing the latter. (ErrorDust)
"Now, I want to introduce you to a pal of mine." Dust leads Error to the skeletons house in Snowdin, entering to reveal another Error knows. FV Killer. The aforementioned skeleton looks up from his knife, holding a hand out.
"My name's Killer. You're that new skeleton who 'fell', right?" Error nods and Killer hums softly.
"I'd like to be your friend." Error smiles. (ErrorKiller)
"Same." Error sighs, closing his eyes.
"Don't take this the wrong way, but I need to be alone for a bit, to just...cool off." Killer and Dust both nod.
"We get it. It's hard to handle a lot of people all of a sudden." Error nods, smiling gently and teleporting to his favorite place in the multiverse. The stars shimmer and shine as if for only him. Error closes his eyes and laying on his back. He opens his eyes, looking up at the stars. Error starts humming gently, singing the tune of 'His Theme', relaxing. Error closes his eyes, continuing to hum. Unbeknownst to Error, his strings had appeared and were making shapes above him, the blue strings practically glowing above Error.
Outer finds the source of the calming magic, blinking at the odd sight he sees. An Error look-alike is laying on a floating rock, glowing blue strings are hovering above the look-alike, and the Error is humming softly. Outer slowly and quietly pulls himself onto the rock, slowly getting close to the Error and laying beside the black-boned skeleton.
"I know you're there..." Outer jumps, looking at the Error, who's discolored eyelights focus on Outer.
"Sorry..."
"You're lucky. You have this awesome view." Outer shrugs.
"Stars get boring after a while." Error focuses on Outer again.
"Think outside of your world for a second. Not a single other Sans or Universe sees stars until the True Pacifist ending, or not even then, in genocide-based timelines. Other Sansi would kill to have what you have." Outer and Error descend into silence, the two sitting in comfort. The stars continue to shine, the two remaining silent even as Error begins to hum 'His Theme' again and the aforementioned skeleton's blue strings glowing gently. (Blackhole, another awesome name for an interesting ship.)
Nova hums softly, smiling up at the purple skeleton.
"I don't know what Lust means, but you look awesome. You can be my uncle." Lust blushes, shaking his head softly.
"I think your dad has other plans for your family." Nova giggles, Lust smiling gently.
"He cares about you a lot. I can tell."
I've labeled all the ships in this story that are up for consideration for the love interest, and no. You can't make me retcon FreeVerse DestructiveDeathMare (Error x Reaper x Nightmare, though that's a fucking awesome name for this threesome). So I guess you have to pick another one to be with the DeterminedVerse/FGOD Error
