In the anti-void, Ink walked around, looking for Error. He hated this place by how white it was, but ignored it, "Error?! Where are you?" Ink called out. Suddenly, Ink got wrapped in blue strings before being pulled up in the group of strings in the sky, where Error was.

At the moment, he was pulling a lot of strings down, making them fall, "What? Can't you see I'm cleaning right now?" Error asked

"I didn't know you like cleaning?" Ink said, "I-...When I woke up here, in the emptiness, and made a mess with my strings, I'd get the urge to clean, I think...whatever my life was once, I had OCD of some sort...I don't know, I just like to clean..." Error said

Ink rose a brow, "You must HATE the multiverse then, it's not sorted or anything! Thinks just float around anywhere they want!" Ink said

Error grumbled, "That's not what you're here for, is it?" Error asked as he pulled more strings down, "R-Right! Hehehe, Reaper, and Fell encountered the skeleton we've encountered," Ink said

Error looked over at Ink, "Really?" Error asked, "Yeah, they had the same story too, the skeleton went after there Papyrus, Fell said that the skeleton took Edge to where ever he was hiding and threw him back, but Reaper said he saw two of the same person..." Ink said

"Really?" Error said, "Not to mention that Reaper gave me a red string, in which he'd assume came from the skeleton," Ink said.

Error pulled Ink closer and loosened his strings to let Ink slip his arms out, "Show me," Error said. Ink dug in his pockets and handed Error the string.

Error held it and looked at it a little, "Other than that, nothing from the subject of whoever that skeleton is. Fell said that the skeleton had someone to go to, someone to fix, Reaper encounter was short as he said...they said the skeleton looked like Geno really," Ink said

"Looked like him? Must be from some AT," Error said

AT standing for Alternate Timeline-

"I would only guess, his name is still unknown, so I'm not sure who this person is, if only I got his name," Ink said. Error grabbed both sides of the string and pulled it apart, breaking the string, "What are you doing?" Ink asked

"I'm trying to make him come here..." Error said, "...Huh?" Ink asked, "Something I learned, whenever someone breaks my strings, I can sense it, it's a pull to my soul in a way, a way my magic warns me someone broke out of there hold...unless someone gets out of my strings without breaking it is the only way I don't know you've escaped..." Error explained

"Interesting," Ink said.

"I guess he's not gonna respond to such a random tug, he might ignore it, but it was an attempt," Error said. Ink shrugged.

From below the two, a portal opened and walked out Dream, "Inkkk? You there?" Dream called. Error scoffed at Dream voice. He let his strings bring the both of them down to the floor as Dream gasped a little in surprise.

Error glared at Dream, remembering the emotionless monster he was, and the happy crazy monster he was before during there fight when they were back at Nightmare mansion.

"Ink!" Dream said, "Oh, Dream, what's up?" Ink asked, "I uh-...I wanted to talk to you," Dream said. Ink looked back at Error, "I'll be right back, okay?" Ink said with a smile

"Tch, sure squid," Error huffed, crossing his arms. Why did I suddenly get Geno vibes? Ink thought before walking over to Dream.

Dream and Ink walked through the portal back to Dream's house. Palette, Paperjam, and Gradient in the guest room asleep, tired from clapping, pushing, and just roughly playing with each other.

Blue and Alter had also left, Blue going to Underswap I believe, and Alter going back to the palace.

"Ink...I- I've noticed you've been using your vials, even when I'm giving off a positive vibe," Dream said, "Yeah? What's this about?" Ink asked, "I...I wanted to know if you wanted to take a break from being happy," Dream asked

"Oh! About that Dream!" Ink said. Dream rose a brow as Ink smiled

"I wanna break up!" Ink said

"Ah-...." Dream was silent. He gave a nervous smile, but his eyes looked shocked, hurt, and different emotions Dream usually doesn't experience often.

Ink noticed this, "Huh? Everything okay?" Ink asked. Tears started to fall down from Dream's face, "Woah?! Why are you crying?!" Ink exclaimed, "I've known this would of h-happen! I was so stubborn! But I was s-scared!" Dream exclaimed

"Scared? Of what?" Ink asked, "Losing you! I love you Ink! Why don't you love me back!" Dream cried.

"Well one upstairs in my skull is not okay, two I have no emotions and can't really feel anything for you, even when I'm drugged on happiness I can't really feel anything, and three...I like Error," Ink said

"What?! What does Error have that I don't?! How can he make you truly happy!" Dream exclaimed, "I can't really...explain it well...we-...somehow he was able to make me feel...REAL feelings...it was for a split second, but he was able to do it, I think he'll be able to do it again," Ink said

"Wha..." Dream said, sniffing and wiping his tears away, "I'm sorry Dream, but...seeing how Blue is pissed at us, and how I basically said the things that I do privately to everyone...and even-" Ink stopped and covered his mouth, a bit of throw up of ink spilled from his mouth in disgust.

"Oh gosh! Ink you okay?!" Dream exclaimed...Ink swallowed it all back in and wiped his mouth, "Sorry...I just...I-...did a thing with you...I just remembered," Ink said. Dream hummed, "Dream you've already suffered enough from this, I don't want you to experience it more...so we need to break up, and...I feel as if Error...will show me how he feels...how all of you really feel," Ink said

Dream nodded, "I-...I think I understand...I'm sorry Ink," Dream said. Ink placed a hand on Dream cheek, "It's alright, I know someone else will be able to love you unlike me," Ink said.

Dream sniffed and smiled the best he could. "But for now, do you think you can help me and Error with something," Ink asked, "W-What?" Dream stuttered a bit, "Recently we've encountered a skeleton, a strange one, he's stolen Reapertale Papyrus and Underfell Papyrus, but...technically they're still there...Reaper said that the skeleton somehow made two, we're not sure...but we're trying to find them, do you think you can help?" Ink asked

Dream nodded, "Anything to make you happy!" Dream smiled.

Ink smiled back, "Come on! Let's go met up with Error," Ink said, opening a portal back to the antivoid.
