Somewhere else, in a completely different place, Nightmare was facepalming. ,,Killer. For the love of God, just hit the nail into the wood! We've done this a hundred times already! Ugh, I need to get away from you... I have still something to do anyways."
The guardian vanished in his own goop, before reappearing somewhere else.
Groaning slid the octopus reject a random tree down,  leaning against it, as he rubbed his temple in annoyance.

"Oh, what do we have here~?" The familiar presence of death began lingering in the air as the God of Death appeared in front of Nightmare.
"Looks like poor Nightmare is tired." Reaper couldn't help but snicker a bit. "Just wanna mention that not going to our routinely coffee time is rude y'know."

Nightmare glanced up and groaned. ,,What are you doing here, Reaper? I am busy. And I didn't have any time to come to the coffee meeting. Someone needed to blow away half of my castle. Now I need to rebuild it. And I am already busy anyways!"

"So I was right then." Reaper hummed. "Listen Nightmare, I met someone who's quite a... Very interesting individual." Reaper began, a small smirk now making it's way to his face.
"Never knew you'd allow anyone to call you Nightymare, but I stood corrected~!"

Nightmare frowned, his eyelight slowly wandering to Reaper. ,,No." He then said in pure horror. The guardian jumped up.
,,Hey, Reaper- Look, it's not what it looks like-" Ah yes, Nightymare certainly didn't want to be teased for the rest of his existence.

"Uhuh~ Sureee Nightymare." Reaper's grin stretched lightly. "I didn't think you'd be the type to take in children... But telling that sweet boy that he's your prince? Oh that's adorable! Especially from the King of Negativity himself~!" Reaper couldn't help but laugh a bit.

Nightymare hissed. ,,Call me one more time Nightymare and I find a way to kill death!" For some reason, his non-existent gut said that there was someone else, who wasn't Error, called him Nightymare.
But he knew that no one was around. But if Nightymare were to find whoever had the audacity to call him that, he would kill them. ,,And how did you even meet him?"

Reaper just laughed even more at that. "Alright Nightymare~!" Reaper chuckled lightly before sighing. "Alright, but being serious for a bit. That kid bumped into me." Reaper spoke, leaning back.

"Kid touched me and even saw me. Not gonna lie, I thought there's no one in that AU who could see me, but Error did." Reaper spoke, placing his hands behind his skull.
"Figured the touch thing might be from your influence, but there was no way he could've seen me unless he has a more powerful magic hidden in him."

Nightmare blinked lightly. ,,Alright, this is certainly weird." He answered. ,,But way less surprising than I expected. Well, if he does, he definitely has absolutely no idea. Error has as good as no clue what magic even is. I mean, he literally lives together with people, that have magic, but... He doesn't know. Nor do his mother or brothers- Blissfully unaware, I guess."

Reaper nodded lightly. "I see... Oh right uhh, dude, you should seriously try to check in on Error. He misses you, I had to tell him that you're most likely busy considering he may be starting to think that you abandoned him."

Nightmare blinked, before cursing quietly. ,,Right, Right, I totally forgot the time-" He grumbled. ,,Shit- I uhh... should go-" He then said.
