Error meets Shade-
Error was sitting in his lonely world starting to drift off to sleep when a quiet noise caught his ears. It started out as a sniffle and worked up to a whine and then to full blown crying. Startled he tried to find out were the noise was coming from. It wasn't a adult cry it was a child or a baby and it seemed to get louder. Covering his ears he noticed a thread that he had never seen before. Picking it up it was not one of his, it was a dark purple. The crying continued as he tried to fallow it finding it came from one of the AU's.
Keeping hold of the thread he traveled to where it led. To his surprise it was a child's room and the said child was crying at the top of it's lungs. The thread was connected to it's soul and his curiosity got the best of him making him look into the crib. It was a little baby bones dressed in what looked like a penguin styled onesy. Error didn't know what to do and how to make it stop. That's when he heard footsteps headed to the room, before he could get back to his world the door opened.
"Error?" He froze seeing the light blue eyes of Blueberry.
"What are you doing here?" Blue was dressed in PJ's that had a space pattern on them. The baby cried out again making Blue go over and pick it up. He calmly hushed the baby as he cradled it in his arms. Error hadn't left but kept watching as Blue moved to face him.
"Is... is it yours?" Error asked as the crying stoped. "Yes, mine and Red's" Blue said noticing the thread that he was holding. Error held it up for a moment before dropping it. "...I f-followed it here."
"You know if Red finds you here he'll kick your ass."
"Hea, I bet he would." The baby turned its head to look at Error but it was still hiccuping as it was trying to stop crying. "Wha-what's its name?"
"His name is Shade." said Blue as he watched Error glitch a bit. "Do you want to hold him?"
Blue offered the small baby to him making him hesitate for a moment before taking the child. The way he held the baby told Blue he hadn't had much time around them. Error had his hands around Shade's tinny waist holding him by the arms and he tried to make his contact as minimal as possible. It seemed a bit confused seeing the glitched version of his parents. Error was surprised seeing bright purple eyes like Blues looking him over.
"Wow, you look more like Blue than Red."
"Well that's because I'm his mom." Error looked a Blue shocked. The baby reached out to Error letting out a coo but he really didn't want to let the little hands grab him. "Error, babies need contact to know people better." Said Blue as Shade made a stressed sound trying to reach Error. Giving in he held the baby closer putting one arm under him so that Shade was against his chest. The baby automatically rested his head over his soul as he severely glitched from the warm feeling. Blue seemed surprised seeing Error doing that he thought for sure he would have handed the baby back.
"Wha-what's it doing?" Asked Error as a pleased coo came from the baby.
"He's listening to your soul, he dose that with everyone new he meets." Error seemed flustered when Shade grabbed him tighter rubbing his face into his jacket and ribcage. Blue seemed amazed the amount of affection the baby was giving Error. He had cried when Doggo had only picked him up and a few other monsters he bawled his head off from just being near them. The only ones he really showed any liking to were the Grilbys, Undynes, Asgores and of course his uncle Stretch and Edge.
"Blue, You know I had feelings for you a long time ago..." Error said looking at the baby.
"...What, brought that up?" Blue asked a bit startled.
"Well, I guess looking a the child I couldn't help but wonder..." Blue got a blush across his face. Their was a creaking noise as the door opened more and Error spotted the red eyes of Fell Sans. Blue looked over seeing him as well and he didn't seem to be too happy. Red frowned seeing Error holding his child and had defiantly heard what he had said.
"Error, I hope you're not planing on doing something I'll have to kill you for." Error quickly pealed the baby from his jacket having a hard time trying to get him to let go. Handing Shade back to Blue he stepped away putting his hands in his pockets. Red walked over to Blue hearing a bit of disappointed noise from Shade.
"I'm sorry for showing up like this." Error said.
"You shouldn't be showing up here at all, I already kicked your ass for kidnapping Blue the first time."
Error let out a loud grown. "H-How many times am I going to have to say this. I-I didn't kidnap him!"
"Yea, yea, you were saving him from Dust. If that was true why didn't you give him back sooner?" Red stood almost in front of Blue as he yelled at Error.
"...I-I didn't think he'd be safe."
Red bared his sharp teeth in a bit of a snarl. "He would have been because I was there!" Shade started to cry again breaking the tension in the room making red turn to see what was wrong. Shade had tears in his little eyes and a frown that would make anyone hug him to keep him from crying. Blue did just that hugging and assuring him that things were okay. Red's expression softened a bit as he saw how upset his son was about them arguing. "Come on Red, can't you just forget about that? Error never did anything to me besides keep me captive for a few weeks."
"...No, I won't forget about it." He turned back to Error. "You best get out of here, if I see you around here again I won't hesitate to make sure you never come back."
Error took the hint and faded back to his own world. Blue still hugged Shade as Red turned back to them. "Blue, Shade isn't hurt is he?"
Blue realized that he had seen Error holding him not knowing he had offered Shade to him to hold. "Yes, he's okay."
Red took Shade from him giving the baby a hug as if he had just got him back after losing him. Wrapping his arms around Blue it almost seemed as if he was trying not to cry. "Red?"
"Don't ever let him around this family ever again Blue... I don't want to lose either of you." Red said burring his face into Blue's shoulder. They walked back to their room taking Shade with them not wanting to leave the baby alone incase Error changed his mind.
