Role Reversal

Living on the Edge

The holidays rolled around suddenly, they took you by surprise just a week before when you realized you hadn't gotten a single gift because of your condition, and honestly bugging the humans for hints on the presents they got you has become habit.

Toriel was kind enough to grab the things you put on a list for the humans and brought them to you and even helped wrap them and stored them in your closet for safety, after you two had tea and talked. The boys were out for various things and luckily you were able to move on your own.

Though wearing the eyepatch didn't make you look as badass as one would think. It was black with a pastel blue rose design stitched into it, Papyrus had given it to you, he said Blue was the one to stitch the design in, after that the two of them got a few more for you to wear incase you got bored with them.

Your favorite oddly enough was a black with checkerboard print. in pastel pink and white, the straps being black.

You clean the dishes in thought, not hearing the front door open or close, the footsteps got closer stopping a few feet away.

"I HAVE COME TO APOLOGIZE FOR OUR FIGHT." You jolted with a yelp dropping the plate into the soapy sink and spinning around being met with the tall human in edgey red and black. You pressed back into the sink in fear.

He himself was taken aback by your form and even looked upset. He stayed in his spot, not daring to move, not wanting to frighten you.

"I-I.... WELL I HAVE NEVER HAD TO SAY SORRY BEFORE SO... NOT SURE HOW TO.." He rubbed the back of his neck a bit sheepishly, your soul aches a bit just being near him alone in the house.

"The Fight Went To Far. What I Did Was... Um...." He draws a blank looking at you.

Should you let him suffer while trying to say a simple sorry or...?

"It's a simple, 'I am sorry for being a major dick and cracking your socket to the point you can no longer see outta it.' Try saying that and I may forgive you." You crossed your arms feeling a bit smug at the fact he was out of character.

"Don't Get Cocky! I Am Trying to Make Up For What I Did!" He shouts with a grumble.

Oh this was hilarious.

Watching him stutter and huff around his apology.

"Make up for it by helping me cook dinner. We are having tacos and I need the tomatoes cut while the meat cooks I can cut the lettuce after I finish the dishes." You turn back around the finish the dishes, he was stalk still. You turned your head to look at him over your shoulder. "Going to stand there? Or work, the tomatoes are in the fridge." You went back to scrubbing.

Before you knew it you both were talking and laughing, he was fun to hang with when he wasn't trying to kill or threaten you. He hated puns as much as Blue and Paps and that just made it easier to tease him. You found out about his interests and dislikes as well as his favorite foods. As you added the seasoning to the meat you both sat and drank tea talking about a few events on the news. You laughed at a small sense of humor from him as the door opens and you were greeted with "MISS MONSTER WE ARE BACK!" From blue.

"In the kitchen!" You replied going back to talking, nearly forgetting who it was sitting across from you, a few feet shuffle in with the sound of crackling plastic bags.

"hey doll, sorry it took so long we had to go to a few- what is he doing here!?" Red shouted dropping his bag more feet shuffle in and stare at you and Edge.

"He came back to say he was sorry. Dinner will be done soon." You wave off their concern.

"Say sorry!? He put a hole in your skull! A simple 'I'm sorry' isn't gonna cut it!" G shouted, Sans and Green nodded.
