(cw for the chapter: uh general paranoia, little bit of guilt/blame, murderous thoughts)
you slowly open the door to the main house unit. looking for Lavender and Honey first and foremost, unless something cool happens, almost immediately Classic is on you.
"what are you doing."
you stare at him all right bud, no need for the sass, stars damn.
"i wa..nt to talk... to Honey."
Classic raises his brow at that but lets you through damn alright, its not like im evil
you roll your eye and enter the living room, looking around for any sight of the pink clothed skeleton. you find him pretty quickly, lounging on a couch on his phone. he glances up as you step closer to him though
"ah. hello darling~ to what do i owe the pleasure of seeing your cute face?"
you go straight to business,
"would you like... to go into the forest for a...camping trip with... me, Killer, and Du...st? also if you wanna bri...ng Lavender along"
Honey gives you a kind smile and begins to agree before you hear a loud shout from the basement
"ACK FUCK- CLASSIC GET DOWN HERE WE GOT A LONER"
Classic rushes from his spot watching you with wary eyes to shortcutting to the basement, you hear a bit of a commotion before sharing a look with Honey.
he seems just as curious as you and you decide fuck it, self preservation instincts be damned, youre seeing who came through the super special magic machine
you creep down to where you popped up and peek down the steps, Classic and Stretch attempting to calm them down and explain the situation as you make eye contact with one of the people you never wanted to see again, Papyrus
nows as good a time as any, kill him, like you promised so long ago.
he killed Jay, he did it he did it he did it
you stare dumbfounded at Papyrus, his large moose antlers, ragged clothing, brittle bones, and almost rabid expression on his face. hes been starving, all that time you were with Nightmare, having petty little breakdowns he has been starving
he goes to defend himself as you step back, Classic looks between you two
"well are you going to explain Leef?"
"thats..... the Papyru..s of my au.."
"well, that will make things simple" Classic says,
"He'll be going to the cabin with you" you pale at that, as much as a skeleton can anyway and shake your head
Classic pays you no mind and turns back to your Papyrus
"like i was saying, you'll need a name for yourself, theres at least five different Papyrus in here,"
Papyrus looks to you, thinks for a moment before speaking, the first time youve heard his voice in a long time, scratchy and rough,
"Bark"
Classic nods and whispers something to Stretch before moving aside, leaving you and Bark alone in the basement
"i...m sorry.." Bark straightens and turns, briskly walking up the stairs
"sorry isnt going to cut it." he replies tersely, and suddenly youre nearly alone in the basement, Honey standing at your side
he gives you a weary look before following Bark up the steps, that breaks you out of your stupor
right, im being stupid you straighten up, who knows when Bark will strike at you, stay on gaurd your mind whispers to you gently
you dont know what may happen, who he might recruit, stay vigilant, dont trust him
you find yourself agreeing with the whisper in your mind, he was friends with the dog squad before, whos to say he wont team up the the Star Sans so get you out of the house for good and kill you
you are taunt like a bow string, ready to snap at something, hopefully Bark.
you walk up, back to the cabin,
back to the safety of the ca-
its not safe any more. Bark is in there, Bark killed Jay
you swallow thickly, you have a feeling you wont be getting sleep any time soon.
you enter the living room of the main house, Classic managed to gather everyone in the living room to introduce to Bark, you stand next to Killer who is seated on the couch you need to be ready to run when Bark attacks
Classic speaks, reminding you of when you first got here
"alright. i already told you about all of the alternate universes so I'll go first, im Classic, your classic sans of this universe."
Classic winks after the pun, groans and chuckles go through the room in response,
you stand there, going through the introductions again. you were barely paying attention the first time, like hell you're going through it a second time.
you just stare at Bark, who stares back, he knows you, knows some of your deepest secrets that you are desperate to hide, he watched you at your lowest, he was the witness to some of your most rabid moments
Jupiter understands the tension between the two of you and stands, the introductions are done.
"all right, i w.ill get started on di.nner if tha.t is alright w.ith you Cla.ssic."
you stand, cooking is a good way to relax, you think.
right?
thats what you do
whatever.
you waltz into the kitchen with Jupiter, eager to get Bark off of your mind
fin
alright chat, the ending was so painful im gonna be real, my god
