As Usual all Hail Snow who I'm pretty sure cackled through beta

Ever rushing, ever moving, ever growing.

That was what true AUs were.

They creaked, they groaned at their weight in the multiverse.

They screamed I am here to everything.

Error just stared and said back, 'Yeah, don't make me come over there.'

We'll be good.

OoOoO

"He took that rather well," Blue said sleepily, as a rather shell-shocked Dream left.

"It was that, or run screaming," said Error, allowing his voice to remain uncorrupted. They were alone and he could sense Stretch several AUs over, so he had no fear of anyone else hearing.

"Tell me a story," Blue said with a grin.

"A story, huh," Error mused.

"About the other Multiverses, maybe even the Omniverses? I know there are other multiverses, not just ours," Blue begged.

Moments later, Error told him a story of a Multiverse where Error was just Error, a god of Destruction, not part of Ink. Where whenever he was killed, he was forcefully incarnated among copious copies of AUs. Even death was temporary for that Error, he was trapped in a never-ending cycle.

Blue fell asleep again, wondering what his counterpart in that multiverse was like.

OoOoO

Three multiverses to the left:

Blue sneezed, briefly pausing what he was doing.

Then he pushed Error in the closet to hide him from Stretch.

"Blue... This body won't shift to my Error form for years yet, he won't know who I am," Error said dryly.

"Sorry, it's habit at this point," Blue said blushing, letting his friend out of the closet.

Error sighed.

OoOoO

Error sighed, leaning his head back. The only sounds were the ticks of the living room clock and Blue's soft breathing.

He stared at a wall blankly.

He could feel an invisible ticking clock.

One between him and Ink.

Choices were being made.

Placing his multicolored hand over his chest, he could feel the soul resting just below.

It yearned to return to Ink.

Return to sender, one could say.

An AU screamed as something surprising caused core corruption.

Seconds later, Blue was alone on the couch.

OoOoO

"Huh... this is still a pretty new AU," Error said, his voice back to its normal corrupted state.

Blessedtale only had a few copies, but even normal people didn't need to see the code to see the corruption.

Sighing, he went to work.

OoOoO

"Dream, Error's destroying an AU," Ink called out, appearing in their base. They were the only ones there, Dream looking like he had also just gotten home.

"Right..." Dream said, frowning.

"Well, we gotta move quickly," said Ink, slashing Broomie in an arc, paint streaming out to create a portal.

"Ink?" Dream said.

"Yes, Dream?" Ink asked, tilting his head in confusion .

"Never mind, it's nothing," said Dream, quickly stepping through the portal.

Ink blinked confusedly and followed.

OoOoO

Blue woke with a start.

"Error?" he called seeing he was alone.

He frowned, he had a weird feeling.

"Dammit," he said, teleporting away from his AU.

OoOoO

It wasn't the Judgement Hall that Error ended his run at, but the giant tree. He frowned, seeing the twisted form the corruption had forced it to take.

He didn't know much about this AU, only that the original was located in a different multiverse.

"It only took a few minutes for my AU to twist," said a young voice. Turning, he saw Blessedtale Sans.

As always, Blessedtale Sans' age varied from copy to copy, this one looked to be about ten, untouched by the corruption.

"It can be fast or slow," Error admitted.

"As soon as it happened, I knew this AU was doomed," Blessed sighed.

"I'm sorry, all I can do is destroy it," Error told him- Hey, if the kid wasn't going to scream or fight, he might as well keep it polite.

"It is your duty after all, Ink will be here soon. The AU will last as long as this moment needs," Blessed said, a strange smile crossing his face. Error stared at the other Sans, his eyelights widening a bit.

"Ah yes, I know. A few of the Blessed copies can see the codes of the multiverse, we can't touch it like our original. But we know how this story goes," Blessed replied.

"Wait, no one should have that information, how do you know so much?! Just seeing the codes shouldn't be enough," Error said, the slightest hint of anger in his voice.

"Don't worry, the stage is set and all the actors are almost here," Blessed said, dusting himself.

Error was shocked, who destroys their own soul?!

And of course, that was when Dream and Ink arrived.

Because that's how the story goes.

OoOoO

"This is where it ends Error!" Ink said.

Next to him, Dream felt like he'd rather be anywhere but there.

Like a tea party with Nightmare.

Wait... no... darn it, now he had that mental image in his head.

And he could feel Nightmare's disgust through their bond.

"Yes, this is where it will end. The final chapter, the book slamming closed," said Error in his corrupted, glitchy voice.

"Yes! Made it!" A cheerful voice shouted as Blue leapt from a portal, his war hammer swinging.

Dream facepalmed. This was getting ridiculous.

The AU continued to become more and more corrupted, pieces of the world breaking off and disintegrating
