[12] What Goes Around, Comes Around

Kris was stuck in their mind. All they could do was observe what was happening around them. No control. None at all.

They had acted out of line, used a power they shouldn't have. But they didn't want to see the consequences if they hadn't. What could have happened if they just let you stand by and drink the Queen's rancid acid. It have poisoned you, killed you, driven you insane even-

Although.

One thing still lingered.

Why had they gotten flashbacks to when they were younger? The day they were gifted their horned headband?

It could have just been a memory that surfaced during the empty period, waiting for the world to return to its last save point.

Or did it mean something deeper? The words they had spoken to their father as a young child lingered within their mind.

"When will [Y/n] get their horns?"

Before this they would have just brushed it off as their child self being a curious little kid. Not knowing how the world worked, or how stark the contrast between humans and monsters were. But now everything felt off.

Thinking about how often they'd ask Toriel or Asgore, even Asriel, when your horns would finally sprout. It just felt wrong to them for whatever reason from the fact that you never grew them. Kris would always get in trouble when trying to draw goat horns for you on old polaroid photos. Toriel would look back on it and laugh about it now. Yet in this very moment, it left a pit in Kris' stomach.

All that talk about you being a later bloomer in their eyes. It all seemed to circle back to this one adventure. The moment his sibling falls down, they finally have horns.

It somewhat horrified Kris.

But Kris' would have to wait for now.

They just realized that everyone was yelling at them to get the banana.

Again.

But only Kris would know it was again.

Oof, sorry for being short but I wanted to get a chapter out. I wanted to make it longer, but making a shorter chapter giving more hints and context with Kris made more sense.

If you're confused as to what happened, read more carefully, try and look for certain discrepancies when retelling events ;)

Also, before I end off this chapter, has the pacing been decent enough with the plot? Is it going too fast or too slow? I wanna make sure, since I might do a revamped version of this book once it's finished. By revamped, I mean leaving this book up while also posting a much better quality version.

Basically I want to get all of your guys' thoughts now so I can have better reference on how to rewrite the book once this one is complete.

But other than that, have an amazing day/night!
