A Passing Conversation

It took them a while to finally collect themselves enough to continue on, but they were still very uneasy, continuing to be practically glued to each other's side as they entered the next area.

Morgan had reluctantly put the bow and Tutu back on after the duo realised they had nothing to carry it in, and despite her still present feelings, she was incredibly reluctant to depart with the pieces of fabric.

The next room was a small one, containing one singular echo flower and a table which housed...something.
Morgan walked up to the table, Darryl not far behind.
It was cheese.
The cheese had apparently been there for so long that a magical crystal had grown around it.
Morgan tried to bite it nonetheless, fighting with the crystal as Darryl made his way towards the echo flower, a tiny squeak emitting from it.
Eventually, Darryl got bored of watching his sister try to break her teeth on a crystallised piece of cheese, so he dragged her out of the room.
Their previously experienced trauma seemed to have been forgotten as they entered the next room.

"SAND UNDERMAN!" The duo yelled out, sprinting towards sans who was just trying to have a peaceful nap next to a weirdly placed telescope. Sans immediately woke up, being startled out of his slumber. He was quick to regain his composure, "Oh, hey kiddos" a quiet 'I'm eighteen' could've been heard if you listened hard enough.
"I'm thinking about getting into the telescope business, it's normally 50000G to use this premium telescope. But since I know you, you can use it for free."
Knowing the consequences of using the telescope, the duo both began to shove each other towards the telescope, eventually starting an all-out brawl. Sans watched nervously from the sidelines.
Darryl was the winner, of course, and Morgan's eye was forced into the telescope. This subsequently left a red circular stain surrounding Morgan's eye, "DARRYL, YOU ASS!" She yelled, rapidly rubbing her stained eye while also desperately attempting to shove Darryl into the telescope as well. She failed, of course, being left an exhausted mess on the cave floor with Darryl standing victoriously over her.

After that momentary dose of embarrassment, the duo entered the next room to their left. This room contained a man standing at an ice-cream stand, a chest, and another tablet.
They approached the tablet first, the ancient glyph having been seemingly painted over with a list of 21 different flavours.
Despite Morgan's loud begging, they left the room without buying something from the ice-cream stand.

They walked along the path, turning right to walk along a water surrounded bridge.
The grass made a pleasant sound under their shoes, partially entertaining Morgan for a second before they decided to move on.
They spot an echo flower alone on another platform. They cross over and approach the flower, listening to what it wishes to repeat.
They hear a passing conversation.
"So? Don't you have any wishes to make?"
That was all it said. It didn't seem like much of a conversation, but they weren't about to argue with a flower.

They walked along to the next flower.
"...hmm, just one, but.....its kind of stupid."
They walk in the opposite direction of this flower, crossing over another bridge before getting pulled into a battle with two moldsmals, whom of which they spared immediately.
As they continued along the small path, they came across another small patch of grass. Searching through it, Morgan found a pair of ballet shoes. She put these on straight away, seemingly not caring that Darryl had a lot less armour than her.

They then went back the way they came, turning right before they could reach the previously looked at flower.
As they walked along this path, they received a call, their shared phone ringing in Darryl's pocket.
He knew better than to hold it against his ear just in case it was Papyrus, this would prove to have been a smart decision as he held the item out infront of him and answered the phone.

"HELLO! THIS IS PAPYRUS!!!"
Papyrus didn't wait for a reply.
"REMEMBER WHEN I ASKED YOU ABOUT CLOTHES?"
"WELL, THE FRIEND WHO WANTED TO KNOW...HER OPINION OF YOU IS VERY....."
"MURDERY."
This wasn't news to the duo considering how she tried to murder them a few minutes or so earlier.
"WELL, WORRY NOT DEAR HUMAN!"
"PAPYRUS WOULD NEVER BETRAY YOU!"
"YOU SAID YOU WERE WEARING A TUTU, SO OF COURSE I ACTUALLY TOLD HER...YOU WERENT WEARING A TUTU!"
"IT PAINED ME TO SAY SUCH A BOLDFACED LIE."
"BUT SINCE YOU ARE WEARING A TUTU. SHE SURELY WONT ATTACK YOU!"
"NOW YOU ARE SAFE AND SOUND."
that statement was not short lived, as it didn't even get the chance to be alive, dieing the moment it exited Papyrus' mouth.
While the duo wished to tell Papyrus what an absolute ass his supposed friend was, they didn't exactly get the chance to as he continued on.
"WOWIE...THIS IS HARD."
"I JUST WANT TO BE EVERYBODY'S FRIEND!"
and with a small click, Papyrus hung up on them once again.
