After a very pleasant cuddle session with his fiancé, Error Sans glitched up to the surface again just outside of Ponyville. Error Monn had caused some serious damage to the town centre and a few of the surrounding buildings, all of which were under repair. It amazed him how quickly the ponies of Equestria could repair things and even rebuild towns, although that could just be summed up to the earth ponies using their strength to move things around and lift things at a faster rate, the pegasui being able to reach higher places so there was no need for unnecessary construction of so,d way to get up to upper floors or roofs and the unicorns using their magic to cast spells that could repair large chunks of the damage in the blink of an eye, of course it would have to be a group pic unicorns or a unicorn that had great magical talent and control.

But Error wasn't there to admire the efficiency of these ponies. No, he was there to pay someone a visit and to find out why they had messed with the timeline he had spent so long keeping in check. "Now...w-w-where is that S-Starlight?"

He teleported up to the top of a nearby tree to get a better view of the town. After scanning the area with his eyes for a few moments he spotted the mare in question who was sitting in Sugarcube Corner with her friends and the princesses.

"I c-can't just teleport in-in-in-in there, I'll just scare-are the ponies t-there." He'd have to wait until she was either alone or in a more private location. "What t-to do until then-en? I could m-m-mess with the locals, bu-u-u-ut I don't think T-Tori would like m-me doing that." He teleported back down to the ground and scratched his chin in thought. "Guess I-I'll see what A-Author is up to."

Nodding he snapped his fingers and a glitchy hole in reality opened up, revealing a void on the other end. Looking back at Ponyville he slowly walked into the rift before closing it off.

"How did you even meet a creature like that?" Twilight asked with great interest as she, along with the rest of the mane seven, sat around a table in Sugarcube Corner with Celestia and Luna.

"Oh yes, do tell. I'm sure that it must have been rather exciting and somewhat dramatic." Rarity added wth a smile, receiving nods from the other young mares.

"Well, it wasn't really that exciting when we first met. He kind of just...showed up one day and has been here since." Luna answered while munching away on a chocolate donut.

"Indeed, there isn't much to say about our first encounter with Error Sans other than he came with two others, his lover Toriel and a strange being known as Author and taht they all came from a place known as the void." Celestia continued as she set down her cup of tea, only for it to quickly be filled by Mrs Cake.

"Really? That's it?" Twilght asked with slight disappointment, receiving nods in response.

"Not all of our stories are exciting Twilight and not all powerful beings cause a big fuss when they get here either." Celestia responded as she took a bite out of her cake. Yes, I'm using the Celestia and the cake thing. "There are times where things are slowly paced and more controlled. There have been plenty of adventures with Error after that point, most dealing with other errors that appeared over time."

"Wait, if he's an error then why is he hunting other errors? Aren't they the same species?" Starlight asked with curiosity.

"No, they're not. Technically anyway. Error Sans is different, he was once a human that existed in another plane of existence thousands of years ago but was brought here by Author and transformed into an error. The errors he fights are mistakes in reality, they have no place in this world not do they actually posses a consciousness, they are copies of other living beings and are programmed to think similarly to the person they are based off of. All they what to do is destroy or get lost on their programmed personality and start to peruse dreams when in reality they cannot dream or aspire to anything. They don't exist, they aren't supposed to exist in the first place." Celestia answered.

"Error Sans puts them down to ensure the safety and stability of this world while also saving them from themselves. They think they have consciousness, but it's an illusion." Luna added while wiping her mouth with a handkerchief. Seeing the conflicted expressions on the ponies faces Luna sighed and looked them all on the eye. "We've gone over this topic for centuries, there's no way to even bring them into reality as a whole, they're in constant pain and they don't know what's going on when they attack, they kill without knowing why. Error is doing them a favour, the only thing they can really feel...is sadness and pain."

"How about we move away from this topic?" Rarity suggested, feeling the tension in the room. "How about you tell us why Error was brought here, other than to kill other errors I mean."

Both of the princesses looked to each other strangely before turning back to the mares. "That's something we've never been able to find out." They said in unison.

???

As Author set another book down and reached for another he felt a disturbance nearby. Turning around he saw Error walkimg through the rift and into the void. "Oh, it's just you Error."

"Y-Y-You sound disappointed-ed. We're you-you expecting any-y-yone?""

Author sighed and turned back around. "No, I wasn't waiting for anyone Error, have a seat."

"Still l-l-looking out for-or the shards-ards of your son?" Error asked as he sat down on a chair that appeared beside the desk.

"No, not yet, the Multiverese is a big place and I have many of my other displaced trying to fix that."

Error just stared. He picked up one of the books and began to read. "I see you've re-re-returned to w-writing, having fun?"

Author stopped writing and sighed. "It helps take my mind off of everything, it's enjoyable as well so I might as wel do it."

"Y-You'll find him e-e-eventually. If you know that he's a-a-alive, there's a c-chance that he'll s-show up. You just have to-to-to wait..."

Author's Note

Yes, getting into plot territory with Author and Error,

Gotta have an ongoing storyline in these kinds of things.

And sorry, this ending wasn't my best, I hit a bit of writers block at the last part

Feel free to point out any mistakes I have made, thank you.
