I've Seen How This Has Affected Her, And It Affected Me Too. Dont Toy With So Many People's Feelings

SO COOOOOL

foony fresh

look at my funny joke

vanessa would boop gregory so much. glitchtrap would boop vanessa and she would throw up

Yes thank youuu!! I see people all the time misremember the scene where he crashes as happening when he's touched by Blue, this isn't true! He crashes because he gets overwhelmed (feeling like he doesn't know what to do) when seeing Blue have a panic attack.

This isn't associated with him being touched either, but sometimes his vision will be filled with ERRORs. This either happens randomly or when he's reminded of his past unexpectedly.

^ When Swap!Pap tried to talk him out of fighting using his past friendships.

^ When Swap!Sans tried to use friendship against him.

There's a lot of other examples of the ERRORs filling his eyes but they're almost always associated with him remembering something he doesn't want to, or thinking about companionship.

Error Sans and his haphephobia.

More so, how people take his haphephobia and twist it WAY out of proportion. This will be a long post. Feel free to skip over this.

HAPHEPHOBIA ; What is it?

Haphephobia is fairly rare, and often triggered by things such as abuse / sexual abuse or because of unidentifiable reasons. Error's, as we can assume, is caused by his glitching and just a fear of sudden touch in general. (Keep that 'sudden' part in mind.) Haphephobia, as mentioned in the screenshot, is different to hypersensitivity. Haphephobia doesn't cause a person any pain, it causes emotional distress at the thought of being touched. This can vary from person to person- Everyone experiences phobias in different ways.

DOES ERROR HAVE HAPHEPHOBIA? ; Or is it a fandom headcanon?

Yes. Error canonically has haphephobia, as stated by LoverOfPiggies.

WHY IS IT RELEVANT? ; Can I just ignore it?

NO. You can't just ignore a serious phobia. It's a part of Error, you can't pick and choose when it comes to his character. I know, I know, "It gets in the way of my art!" "It gets in the way of my fics!", but you can WORK AROUND IT. Deal with it. BUT, as I'll get into, it doesn't completely ruin your fics that apparently NEEEEEEED Error to touch someone.

SO HOW CAN I 'REMOVE' IT? ; Is it just there forever? Do I have to use it?

Yes and no. Haphephobia is actually treatable, as is most EVERY phobia. It's silly to think otherwise. I've seen a couple of very sweet fics where Error (with proper support) learns to get over the phobia and become able to touch people with ease. This is the.. Uh, chaotic neutral route? Considering you are, in a sense, removing his haphephobia, but acknowledging it's there and it's life-altering in some cases. In art this is a lot harder, since you'd need tons and tons of comic pages to cover him learning to ease off the fear just to draw a piece of Classicerror or Retroglitch fanart.

HOW TO CORRECTLY PORTRAY ; Error's haphephobia.

This is only relevant to ERROR. Haphephobia differs from person to person, monster to monster :3

Can he touch people? ; ... Yes.

Error partaking in a handshake, from Season One of Ask Error by LoverOfPiggies !! :3 Some key points occur in the moments leading up to this scene and the scene itself. An ask or two before, an anon asked to hug Error. Error happily declines, because he "would mess it up". Not because he's terrified of being touched, because he's scared of messing it up. Pathetic wet cat behaviour. In the scene above, we see Error initiate and enjoy a handshake! In fact, for the next couple asks, he doesn't even take his hand away from "Paragon"- He simply holds their hand absently. UNTIL someone points out that their handshake has crossed over into hand-holding, and anons start "shipping" the two, THAT'S when Error becomes pissed and rips his hand away. So clearly, he's fine with touch to some extent, mostly when politely asked to be touched or initiating touch of his own will.

Now...

This is when the haphephobia comes into play. (Actually, this event happens before the shipping stuff, as seen from Error still holding "Paragon"s hand.)

The anon hugs Error WITHOUT warning, WITHOUT consent, at random. THIS is what sets Error's haphophobia off, THIS is what makes him really pissed. As seen, Error starts shaking and the errors around his body become more erratic. His eyesockets go blank, he freezes, he goes into "freeze mode" before going straight to "fight mode".

So, from this we can gather, Error can initiate touch and doesn't mind consentual touch at most times.

He does have moments where he isn't fine with touch, which is okay! I'm the same, with my autism and sensory issues! He's valid in not wanting to be touched, and as long as he expresses discomfort and fellow monsters are undertanding, everything's fine.

Error's haphephobia does not flare up from the smallest handshake or a side hug. He can touch other monsters, he just doesn't want to sometimes! And people touching him out of the blue, he isn't fine with that, which makes sense!! Who does want random contact out of NO WHERE? No one !! (I don't think..)

MISCONCEPTIONS ;

Error lags when he's touched! ; Actually, Error is never shown to 'lag'. It's a fun headcanon, though! ^_^

Error bluescreens ; This is just another headcanon, which is fun to fiddle with, but not canon!

Error can crash and reboot like an old computer ; Yes, actually! In Season Two of Ask Error, he does reboot after a considerable amount of stress (?).

Helloooo guys gals and other pals! How yall doin? That’s right, I’m coming out of my cave to talk a little bit about the video game I’ve been working on.

Truth be told, between working conventions and etsy, somedays I’ve been having 12 hour days working on this thing. I have a huge portion of the world already done (At least, the bare bones basics of the visuals) some enemies programmed, including 2 boss battles and around 15 unique enemies (so far), and most concept art for these locations finished.

It probably isn’t a surprise that I’m keeping most things a surprise until release gets close, and when that happens I’ll release more official art, designs for certain characters and basic character bios, all that.

My hope is to have it finished in a year and a half, and then do a kickstarter to help fund hiring a composer. I can do most everything else myself (Even if its a lot of work!) but music is not a skill I’ve ever worked to grow. That, and I’ll want to make sure the bug fixes go well. I have great close friends who are being my beta testers, because I want to release this game as good as I can! It won’t be on switch (Sorry) but it’ll for SURE be ready for computers, and I hope to have a phone version, too. Depends on how much I’m able to get done. Anyway, yup! Final date I hope to have the game done is end of 2024. I don’t know how many people are excited, especially since I’ve been SUPER hush hush about the characters, and the story, and all that, but. I’m pourin my soul into it, and just wanted to sneak yall an update in the mean time. <3

Until then, enjoy the Buny Haspitle

I am pleased

Today was a really good day! Got multiple discord friends of mine to watch underverse !!! and I got an ita bag (i really needed a new bag) as a gift from my coworker :DD also got to go home from work early so... score!

No glasses version:

Error smilin’ in his little party hat all like: “You saw nothing” Made some animations for Error’s bday!  Second one was my first time animating traditionally/on-paper so it’s not that great. Also yes I committed the cardinal sin of drawing Lucidia Error with an Undertale soul, DUN DUN DUnNNnN. Happy 404!
