I dont know how to deal with the fact that afterdeath (geno & reaper) is *technically* error and reaper, but going by that logic, its also:
classic and reaper
Dust and reaper
Horror and reaper
Sci and reaper
Etc.
Like the loop is fucking endless bro
Edit: OMFG. TECHNICALLY ERROR AND INK IS ALSO GENO AND INK.
Iâm satisfied!
It was an ordinary autumn day. Unremarkable than all the days before. The weather was cloudy outside, puddles from the rain and, in general, the landscapes from the window looked very damp and dreary.
A young man, aged 25, was looking out the window, lying on his cozy bed. He understood that he needed to get up and get ready for university, but the autumn melancholy makes itself clear. The man, however, sat down on his bed and tore his gaze away from the window.
His room was rather dim and cluttered: clothes worn since yesterday were lying on the floor; dirty dishes were on the table; as well as educational supplies were scattered all over the room, here and there. The man massaged his temples and got up from the heated bed, moving lazily and looking for his clothes.
From the closet he took out jeans worn in many places, and from the floor he took a T-shirt with his favorite rock band. After changing into this, he also picked up socks from the floor and pulled them on too. Having replaced his slippers with rather massive boots, the man began to look around in search of his favorite sweater, which he constantly carries, and a very expensive red scarf.
Having found all this, the man picked up his bag over his shoulder and left the room. Arriving in the kitchen, he put his bag on a chair and went to the bathroom to put himself in some kind of order. He can't go to university disheveled, right?
After tidying himself up, the man came out of the bathroom, tightening a tight ponytail on his head and pulling a bandage over his right eye. He decided not to have breakfast, hoping that he would be able to grab a snack bar or something like that during the break.
After leaving the apartment, the man locked the door behind him and went down the road that leads to the bus stop. Along the way, the man yawned, mentally complaining about such sleepy weather and cursing at himself for staying up too late at night reading some kind of thriller. Halloween is coming up, so he decided to immerse himself in the atmosphere of something creepy and scary. Although, to tell the truth, there is nothing scarier than our real life.
Entering the bus, the man showed a ticket saying that he was disabled to the driver, and went deep into the bus. He sat down at the very end, plugged the player into his headphones and began listening to music, watching the scenery change outside the window. Despite the fact that our hero does not like to label himself as a "disabled person", or a person with some kind of limitations, he could not help but take advantage of the fact that many things were available and free for him. He didn't like being pitied in his own direction, but sometimes he used it very brazenly to his advantage. We are all not without sin.
At one of the stops, another man ran in, apologizing to the driver for having to wait for him. Our hero drew attention to him, observing and examining.The man who entered was about the same height as him, only a centimeter, maybe 5 taller.He had a shaved head, but the hair itself was very dark in color. I wonder if he paints them, or is it a gift from nature? The man has a very bright tattoo on his face, in the form of a skull outline. It must have hurt to stuff it. He was dressed in clothes similar to our hero's, only his image was more brutal and also defiant: ripped jeans, army berets, a dark sweater with some kind of pattern and a very long sweater with a hood and his own sleeves. Our hero involuntarily thought that this man looked exactly like some kind of death in an old movie, and that interested him.
The stranger sat down opposite, slightly spreading his knees and exhaling in a relaxed manner. Apparently, he was in a hurry. I wonder if he goes to university too?
Their eyes met. It is clear that the stranger was also interested in our hero, and grinned, starting a dialogue:
- Well, hello there.
Our hero put away his headphones, turned on the player and also responded to the greeting with a nod.
- Did you have a little morning run?
- Huh, yeah. I don't live that close to the bus stops, so I had to run a little. , My name is Reaper, and yours?
- Geno.
They shook hands. Geno noticed that his hand was very cold, despite the fact that he was wearing rather warm gloves.
They continued to talk, discussing music and the current autumn landscape. Geno got the impression that they were old friends who could talk about everything that was possible and impossible.
When they got to the right stop, they said goodbye and Geno got off the bus. But after walking a couple of meters, he realized with chagrin that he had not taken the contacts of a new friend. He turned around, but the bus had already left. Sighing in frustration, he headed towards his university, wondering who this man was and how he was going to cross paths with him again.
Iâve made this joke before and Iâll do it again

Saitama: YOU PEACE OF SH*T!
Geno: HOW DARE YOU BOTHER HER!
Sonic precedes to be completely scold down by Saitama for the next hour while King realises he could have prevented everything by just having Saitama on speed dial.
For Full Res
an idea me and a friend had in my discord server/ @clearprincessturtle (which ima just copy/paste from the discussion there cuz im lazy to rewrite it all)
"Headcanon about Geno, since he's blind in his right eye, he likes to always keep either a trusted person or like a wall on his right side when he can since it's a blindspot for him
And by trusted person, I mostly mean Papyrus or his other self
or Undyne.
cuz shes blind in the left and genos in the right
(tho shes probs used to it tbh since i feel like that happened when she was a kid) and so probably already kinda figured out how to block and whatever for that side maybe but ye- still it'd be kinda bewy if they worked together that way XD
or like geno training with undyne whos blind in the left from missing an eye to like react to blocking to his right side maybe even if nothings coming or something- idk."
So ye, have a Geno sparring with Undyne to protect his blindside and be able to react there and block even if he cant see anything coming from that side and stuff
This suddenly popped out on my mind that what if Error and Geno fused together into Fatal like all the crystal gems did in Steven Universe.
Geno and Error belongs @crayonqueendom
Fatal belongs to @fatal-error-blog / @xedramon

âYou ready guys?â
Alaina and Fresh looked at each other. It was a while after their marriage, and getting their new house. Right now, they were going to have a child. But, since they were different species, they couldnât. Instead, they did what CQ had done with Fresh and his brothers; by using magic. Unlike her however, they both used their DNA so the baby had both of their genes.
Thinking about who and what their child was going to be, they nodded. Then, they came to the middle of the room, where Alaina and Freshâs DNA samples were. Fresh turned on his magic, and after a bit, Alaina did too. They both held hands before closing their eyes, thinking about of their future child. Suddenly, a bright light had manifested underneath them, and soon enough, the light turned into a shape, until the light died down, a babies cries being heard.
Both Fresh and Alaina opened their eyes to look at the baby, happy that they are now parents. Alaina picked the baby up, carefully holding its head up. Fresh looked at the baby. It was skeleton looking, and he saw a bit of fuzz on top of their skull, signifying that they would be getting haircuts in the future.
âIs it a boy or a girl?â Alaina asked.
Fresh checked the babyâs pelvis, before saying, âItâs a girl!â
Alaina smiled, before turning around, asking her mother-in-law, âYou want to hold her?â
CQ nodded, and, after putting a blanket on her, Alaina handed the baby to CQ. CQ looked at the baby, and saw that she looked a lot like Fresh, with some hints of Alaina.
âSo, what are you going to name her?â CQ asked.
Both Fresh and Alaina looked at each other, before Fresh turned back to his mom, saying, âHer name will be Abigail. Abigail June Prana.â
âThat is a wonderful name.â CQ said. She turned to the baby, who had quieted down to look at the strange woman holding her. âHello Abigail. Iâm your grandma CQ. We are going to have so much fun time together whenever I babysit you.â Abigail cooed in response.
Looking up, CQ was going to ask Fresh if he wants to hold Abigail, but stopped when she saw tears in her sonâs eyes.
âFresh? Whatâs wrong?â CQ asked, worried.
Fresh wiped his eye sockets, saying, âIâm okay mom. Iâm just so happy!â
CQ smiled warmly at that, before saying, âOkay. Do you want to hold Abigail?â
Fresh nodded. âOkay. Here you go.â CQ said, before handing Abigail.
After holding her correctly, Fresh looked at his daughter with eye sockets filled with tears, but with a smile on his face. âHello Abigail,â Fresh said. He wiped some tears, before saying, âIâm your dad. And Iâm going to take good care of you, I promise.â Abigail lifted her hand up, and Fresh held out a finger, which Abigail grabbed tightly.
âSheâs got a strong grip, huh?â CQ asked.
âYeah, she does.â Fresh said, still looking at his daughter, who looks like she is trying to put his finger in her mouth. âHey Alaina, can you go get her formula? I think sheâs hungry.â
âSure Fresh.â Alaina said, before going into the kitchen to do so.
While waiting, Fresh went to the couch that was nearby, before grabbing a red onesie. Laying her down, he started buttoning it, but it didnât work somehow. Fresh heard a chuckle behind him, before CQ appeared next to him. âLet me help with that.â CQ said. Fresh moved out of the way, and CQ stepped in, buttoning Abigailâs onesie correctly.
âThanks mom.â Fresh said, a small but noticeable embarrassed blush on his face.
âYour welcome Fresh, and donât worry. I did the exact same thing to Geno.â CQ chuckled, before saying, âMy mentor, who was with me when Geno got born, had to show me how to even properly hold a baby, clothe them, and even give them their bottle.â
Finally, Alaina came back with the bottle, and Fresh grabbed it and Abigail, before he started feeding her, after CQ showed him how.
âHey,â CQ said, âYou want me to bring everyone in now?â
Fresh would've face palmed if his hands weren't full. Everyone was waiting outside, since the only people who should be present in the process were the parent(s) and someone who would mentor the parent(s), if it was the parent(s) first time.
âYeah, bring them in.â Fresh said.
After hearing him agree, CQ went outside, before saying, âOkay guys. Theyâre ready. But remember, you have to be quiet, alright?â
Geno, Error, Asy, and Alainaâs parents nodded. Opening the door more, CQ led them to the new parents, who had both decided to sit down on the couch. Fresh had Abigail over his shoulder, burping her. Alaina, finally noticing the new company, waved at them, before saying, âHey Abigail. Guess whoâs here to see you?â
Once he got done burping her, Fresh looked up at them, saying, âHey Error, would you like to go first?â
âM-me?â Error said, surprised, âI donât knowâŠâ
âCome on! You can do it!â Fresh said supportively. After a while, Error nodded, and Fresh got up so Error can have a seat. Once Error sat down, Fresh gave him Abigail, showing him how to hold her head up.
Error held Abigail, before stuttering out, âH-hello Abigail. Iâm y-your Uncle Error.â Error looked up at Fresh, and Fresh had the look that said âkeep goingâ. Error felt more confident, before looking down, saying, âWhen you get old enough, we are going to go fishing together. Iâll teach you everything I know about fishing; from how to put bait on your line, to how to reel in fish.â
After giving Abigail to Fresh, Error and Geno switched places, before Fresh handed Abigail to Geno. Geno chuckled, before saying, âHello Abigail. You can call me Uncle Geno. I will be there for you whenever you get sick, because I have been sick for so long, so I know what it will feel like.â
Geno did the same thing Error did, but instead of switching with Error, he switched with Asy. Once Asy had Abigail in his arms, he said, âHey Abigail. I am your Great-Uncle Asy, but you can just call me your Grunkle Asy. I will be there whenever you get hurt, so I can give you my magic Band-Aids. But I need you to promise me that you wonât tell anyone, understand?â When Abigail cooed in response, he held Abigail closer, saying, âI knew I could trust you to keep a secret!â
After getting Abigail back, Fresh saw that she was getting tired. He looked at his family, before saying, âOkay, we will hold off introductions for now. Abigail is getting pretty tired.â
After everyone said goodnight to Abigail, Fresh carried her to her new bedroom. Opening the door, Fresh looked at how they did on the nursery. The top part of the walls were colored a light blue, while the bottom half had pink wallpaper that looked like it was falling apart. A white barrier was between the two colors. At the edge of the room, toward the window, was a white crib, with some teddy bears and dolls inside it. Next to the crib was a wooden rocking chair. To the left of the room was a wooden dresser. Next to the dresser was an empty toy box, which Fresh knew was going to be filled with toys.
Fresh moved to where the crib was. Setting her down, Fresh tried to get Abigail to sleep, but somehow Abigail wouldnât. Then he remembered that CQ said that when Error was just a baby, he too wouldnât go to sleep. She finally found out that singing helped, so until a bit before Fresh was born, she sang a song that always put Error to sleep. It was a little creepy, but it did work. Fresh picked up Abigail, before sitting down in the rocking chair. After rocking for a bit, Fresh drew in a breath, before singing.
Come little children,
Iâll take thee away,
Into a land of enchantment.
Come little children,
The times come to play,
Here in my garden of shadows.
Fresh looked down at Abigail. She yawned, but she wasnât falling asleep yet. He decided to continue.
Follow sweet children,
I'll show thee the way,
Through all the pain and the sorrows.
Weep not poor children,
For life is this way,
Murdering beauty and passions.
Fresh saw Abigailâs eye sockets begin to close. He rubbed her head softly as he sang the next words.
Hush now dear children,
It must be this way,
Too weary of life and deceptions.
Rest now my children,
For soon we'll away,
Into the calm and the quiet.
Suddenly, Fresh heard someone humming, and when he looked at the door, Alaina was there. Fresh joined in with the humming, Alaina walking toward the father and daughter. Before they were done, Fresh saw that Abigail had fallen asleep. He sat up carefully, to not wake Abigail, and went to the crib. He placed her inside it, before placing a blanket over Abigail. After humming a bit, Fresh sang again.
Come little children,
I'll take thee away,
Into a land of enchantment.
Come little children,
The time's come to play,
Here in my garden of shadows.
Fresh and Alaina stopped singing, both just looking over Abigail. After watching to make sure that she stayed asleep, the two parents walked softly to the door, before Fresh closed the door behind him.
Hey Guys! I said that I will make a chapter before I left for my Uncleâs, so here I am! (At 2 freaking Oâclock in the morning!) Anyway! Oh, and when I get back home, Iâm going to start like a Q and A thing, so if you have any questions from the story that you have, you can ask me there. And it will be on until I get to finish the epilogue of this story! Now without further ado, lets get to the chapter!

Warning: Mentions of depression, attempted suicide, and injury
After a few minutes of group hugging, Fresh stood up, saying, âGeno? Error? Iâm really sorry for what I did. After leaving, I was so scared. I had thought that if I went back, the police would arrest me for hurting you, Geno. I kept thinking the worse of what will happen if I went back, and that fear had pushed me to go all the way to Ohio, where I had to stop, because I had fallen ill, and met Alaina.â Alaina waved at them when her name was called, Geno and Error waving back.
Fresh smiled, before frowning, saying, âWhile I rested at Alainaâs house, I saw that I didnât have much money left, so when Alainaâs parents asked me to stay, I agreed. Since then, they were my temporary parents. Then, I started going to school, making friends, and now,â Fresh grinned widely, âI have a beautiful fiancĂ©e, who I am going to marry.â
Geno and Error looked at each other, surprised. Then Error asked, âWell, where is she?â
Alaina walked next to Fresh, lifting her hand up the show the ring on her ring finger. Error was shocked, because he thought that Fresh would never find love. But, that was before Fresh got emotions. While Error was shocked, Geno was very happy. He knew that once he got emotions, Fresh would soon find someone that he would love to spend the rest of his life with.
Fresh smiled, saying, âAnd donât worry. You are all invited to the wedding, including Ink. Where is he anyways?â
Geno smiled, saying, âHeâs out of town, selling his art.â
âOh, okay.â Fresh said.
Then, they started talking about what had happened after Fresh left. Apparently, after finishing his treatment, Geno went back to school. It took a while to catch up to everyone, due to having been sick before. But even when he caught up, he kept going, getting straight Aâs, and even skipping two grades. He also competed in the math competitions, and now he has a job as a Mathematician.
For Error, it was a bit harder. Error kept blaming himself that he had made Fresh run away, and after the police said that they couldnât find Fresh anywhere, and had to stop searching for him, Error locked himself in his room. He refused to get out, he wouldnât eat, and when CQ finally got inside the room, she saw his body hanging from his strings. She quickly got him down, and took him to the hospital.
Error had survived from a broken neck, but he was in a coma-like state, due to the doctors giving him a long surgery to fix his neck. While they waited for him to wake up again, Geno had a dream where he was in front of the hospital bed, but he was in the bed, not Error. When he saw himself start to dust, he woke up screaming. CQ had rushed in, since she had heard his screams, and asked what happened. After telling her the dream, CQ said that they would go to Errorâs room once visiting hours start.
When the finally got to Error, they saw that he was awake, though he was groggily, due to the pain medicine he had to take. Since he woke up, They doctors had kept close watch on Error, and once he got out, they put him on antidepressants, and gave him therapy sessions. When he saw that neither were working, Asy started taking Error fishing. It had a sense of peace and quiet, and Asy knew that Error could feel a little bit happier when he finally caught a fish or two.
After finishing their dinner, the now completed family went to CQâs house, where they had fun watching movies and playing games. When no one was looking, Fresh sneaked upstairs, and went to the door of where his bedroom was. Opening the door, he looked inside, and saw that nothing had changed. Everything was tidy, still filled with all the 90âs stuff he had when he was a kid. He looked at his dresser, and cringed when he saw his old furby. Now that he thought of it, it was kind of creepy.
Next to the furby was all of the Pokémon plushies he had gotten; from Pikachu to Ekans to even a Sandshrew. He even saw that everything was in its place and everything was clean. It was like he had never left.
âHey.â
Fresh jumped, turning around to see Geno. Geno smiled, saying, âSorry I scared you.â Then he looked in the room, saying, âError wouldnât let us turn it into a guest room. He wouldnât even let people in there sometimes. He really did miss you, you know that?â
âYeah.â Fresh said. âI⊠guess it took a while to miss you guys too.â
And it was true. Since he left, different emotions would just pop out, like when you would put Mentos in Diet coke. The first time he felt happy was when a woman had said that he could spend the night in her house instead of on the streets. He was so happy that he had actually started crying, which had confused him so much. The first time he was angry was when a guy tried to rob someone. After he saw this, he ran harder than he had in his entire life, catching the guy and calling the police on him. But, since he didnât want to be noticed, he left the man to someone who could hold him down, before Fresh left the scene.
And the first time he felt homesick was about a month after he had met Alaina and her family. He was in the living room, watching TV, when he saw Alainaâs mom started knitting with blue yarn. Immediately, it reminded him of Error, and he had broken down crying. They had tried to calm him down, and they did after several hours. After that, he started going to therapy sessions. He didnât tell the therapist everything, but did tell them that he felt homesick, and that his emotions were out of whack.
The therapist said that he had emotional overwhelm, and gave him coping methods to help with the emotions. They also said that, if he wanted to, he could write a journal, about what he was feeling, and why. Fresh agreed, and after going to the store to get a journal with a lock, he started writing all of his feelings in it. Soon enough, his emotions stopped being so extreme.
âHey.â Geno said, putting his hand on Freshâs shoulder, âItâs going to be okay. I mean, you just started getting emotions after you left, right?â Fresh nodded. âWell, you have emotions now, and youâre with your family. Thatâs all that matters.â Then Geno started pulling Fresh, saying, âNow come on! Itâs your turn to pick a race!â
Fresh laughed, following Geno downstairs to the living room. Sitting down on the floor, he grabbed the remote from Alaina (who was playing for him) and picked the Shell Cup. While playing, he thought of what Geno had said before, and he was right. It only matters that he was with his family in the present, and not how he left them in the past. He had such loving families, and he wouldnât leave them, never again. And his previously small and broken family had become a big and happy family.
Yeah!I finally got this chapter done! At first, I wanted to have this the longest chapter yet, with over 2,000 words, but I felt like it just kept dragging on, so I split the one chapter into two. So, expect the next chapter next week! After this, there will be two more chapters, before this one is over. I donât know what Iâll be doing after this, but Iâll figure something out. But anyway, lets get to it.

"Ugh. Uncle Asy, the tie feels really tight." Fresh said, annoyed.
"It's not. Now hold still, I need to straighten this." Asy replied.
Fresh sighed, then tried to stay as still as his rattling bones will allow. It was the evening of seeing his brothers after so long. After setting up a reservation for 6 (with two on a temporary separate table), CQ called Geno and Error, telling them that she 'hasn't seen the whole family in a while' and 'want to get together for dinner'.
Finishing on the tie, Asy stepped back, seeing his work on Fresh. Fresh was wearing a light blue suit, with a neon-colored tie. Asy was wearing the same thing, except that his suit was a darker blue, and his tie had pictures of Band-Aids on it.
*knock knock*
"Are you guys almost ready? You know we have to be there before Geno and Error," Alaina's muffled voice said from the door.
"Yup!" Asy exclaimed.
"Yeah, we're ready. You?" Fresh asked.
"Would I be here if I wasn't?" Alaina asked back.
"No, you wouldn't," Fresh said, laughing.
After getting in Asy's car, they drove to the restaurant. After telling them what's going to happen, the host agreed, and set the tables to its places for the surprise.
Soon enough, Fresh heard footsteps from multiple people, and there...
Fresh froze. He couldn't think, couldn't move. He just stared at the three people who were walking to their table. The two skeletons gave his best attention however. They were both wearing suits, though one was also wearing a red scarf, while the other looked like the suit had a hood on it. Before he could get to see them more, a menu suddenly pops in front of his face, obscuring his view on his brothers.
Lowering it down slightly, Fresh saw that Alaina was the one who put the menu in front of his face. He also saw that she looked very worried.
âHey, are you okay? You froze, and they wouldâve seen you staring if they turned around,â Alaina said.
Fresh lowered his head, nodding. She was right. Because he froze, he couldâve ruined the plan. Â âY-yeah. Iâm okay.â He finally answered.
After the slight screw up, they went and did everything as if they werenât on a secret mission or something. They ate their food, and when it was almost time for dessert, Fresh got out his phone.

He was having fun with his family. It was a great idea that his mother decided to bring the whole family. They wouldâve brought Ink and his mother, but they were out of town to sell some of Inkâs new line of art. It was too bad, because Ink was like a brother-cousin, even though he wasnât his cousin or his brother. If only-
Suddenly, his phone was starting to ring. He looked at it, but he didnât know the number.
âHeh. Sorry guys, I have to take this.â Geno said.
CQ shrugged it off. âDonât worry, you donât have to leave to take the call. Right Asy?â
Asy nodded. âYup. Go take the call. Who knows, it might be important.â
Geno knew they were acting suspicious, but he answered the phone anyway. âHello?â
âHello. Is this Geno Queen?â The man on the phone asks.
âYes, this is Geno.â Geno replied.
âOh, thatâs good. Um, I was wondering if you would like to be interviewed? Itâs for a grade I have to do.â The person asks.
âSure. When should we meet?â Geno asks.
âOh, no, I was wondering if we could interview now. Iâm shy, and I only joined this class because I wanted to learn to edit stuff. I already have the microphone set up and recording.â
ââŠOh.â Geno said after thinking, âI⊠guess I could do it now.â
âGreat! Okay, first question. Who is in your family?â The man asked.
âI have, well, used to have two brothers.â Geno replied.
âUsed to have two brothers? What happened?â The man asked.
âSomething happened, and my brother, Fresh, had ran away.â Geno said sadly. He looked at Error, who had lowered his head. Geno knew it was in shame, since no matter what he did, Error believed it was his fault that Fresh ran away.
âOh, Iâm sorry.â After a bit, the man said, âOh! You havenât told me who also was in your family.â
âOh, youâre right.â Geno exclaimed. âMy other brother is named Error, and my motherâs name is Crayon Queen, but she likes to be called CQ for short. I also have Uncle Asy. Heâs not my real Uncle, but itâs what we called him a bit after we first met him.â Geno smiled at the memory of when Uncle Asy first came into his life. He appeared to help CQ take care of Error and Fresh, and Geno on those rare days. Since then, Asy became part of their family.
âOkay, next question. So, Iâve heard that you have been sick most of your life, is that correct?â
Geno nodded, before saying, âYup. Would you like to hear the story?â
âYes please.â The man said.
âWell, since I was born, I had an illness that no doctor could figure out. I have gone through every medication, every treatment. It felt like my home wasnât my home, just a vacation spot that I went to every time I felt âbetterâ. The doctors said that I wouldnât even get past my teenager years.â Geno said, sadly. âOne day however, Fresh, the brother I have mentioned before, was going to get me my medicine. But then, I had started puking blood, and was rushed to the hospital.
âLater, Fresh wanted to show me his new PokĂ©mon, when I started coughing really bad. I guess it angered him or something, because he ran up to my bed, and slapped me in the face-â Geno stopped when he heard a chocking sound coming from the speaker of his phone. âHey, are you okay?â
A few sniffles came from the man, before they said, âIâm sorry. Iâm just not good at hearing when he hit you. I guess it reminded me of my childhood. The same thing happened to me, just in a different way.â
âOh, Iâm very sorry for that.â Geno said sadly.
âI-itâs okay. You can keep going.â The man said.
âWell, after he slapped me, I had puked out even more blood and a blood clot. It was bad that he did it, but my brother had saved my life.â
âW-what?! How was that possible?â The man almost shouted.
âWell, when I puked, I had broken a rib, and when they went to fix it, they found something that no one wouldâve guessed, and when they checked, it was confirmed that I had cancer in my ribs that wasnât seen until that day. It started growing inside my ribs sometime after my birth, and it grew until it was removed when I was fourteen.â Then Geno sighed sadly, âI wish Fresh was here. That way, we could have fun regularly, with lots of exercise.â
After a short pause, the man on the phone said, âWell, Iâm sorry that happened to you, and I want you to feel better. Every time me and my  get on some sensitive subject, I tell a joke to ease the mood. So, would you like to hear one?â The man asked.
âSure,â Geno said, âWhatâs the joke?â
âKnock knockâ
Smiling a bit, Geno said, âWhoâs there?â
âArenâtâ
âArenât who?â Not hearing any answer, Geno tried again, âUm, Arenât who?â
Then, from behind him, he heard, âArenât you going to turn around and greet your brother?â
Geno dropped his phone, shocked. It couldnât be, couldnât it?
Turning around, Geno saw a skeleton behind him. Looking at them, they really looked like an older-
âFresh?âÂ

Fresh turned toward to where Error was. Standing up, Error started walking toward Fresh, and Geno stepped back. Before Fresh wondered why he did that, Error suddenly slapped him in the face, almost knocking Fresh backwards. Holding his face, Fresh asked, âWhy did you do that?â
âFor all the things youâve done!â Error said angrily, âYou werenât there when Geno had to go through surgery; you werenât there for his recovery. You werenât there when I felt sorry for myself after finding out that the police stopped searching for you.â Then Error started crying. âA-and you werenât there when I was so depressed, that I almost k-killed myself. I,â Error sobbed out, âI thought you were dead!â
Not worrying about the feeling of burning on his face, Fresh walked to Error, before hugging him. Fresh could hear the sound of Error âcrashingâ before ârebootingâ, so he stepped back to let Error finished. When done, Error started mumbling, âSorry. Y-you just surpri-â
âIâm sorry.â Fresh interrupted. He looked down in shame. âIâm sorry I wasnât there for you, to make you feel this way. I just couldnât handle it.â Fresh felt his knees weaken, and he fell on them, crying. Everyone instantly then surrounded him, comforting him.
