Muffed had prepared Y/N's food. A delicious chocolate brownie. She placed it on the table as she then sat across from him in the booth. Y/N smiled at his old friend.
"You're cooking was always amazing." Y/N remarked with a grin as Muffet giggled.
"I got my tips from the best." Muffet smiled as she gestured to Y/N. "Bon appetite."
"You're even learning human phrases now, huh?"
"Their culture begins to rub off on you." Muffet giggled as she scratched the back of her head.

Y/N picked up his fork as he took a piece out of his brownie.
"Mhmmmm~" Y/N hummed in pleasure. It was definitely better than he remembered.
"I take it that was a good batch?"
"Sure was... Better than what I remembered."
"You saying my cooking was bad?" Muffet put on a tone that sounded hurt.
"Of course not. Your just a better cook that's all." Y/N chuckled as Muffet looked at Y/N one more time before looking down at the table.

"Y-Y/N..." muffet spoke with a trembling voice as she began to remember Y/N's time in the underground.
"Hmmm?" Y/N hummed waiting for a response.
"How... How are you alive again?"
"Wow... Pretty loaded question." Y/N remarked with a small chuckle. "Do you know that gaster guy... Scientist I think." Muffet nodded slowly. "Well you can credit him for my miraculous revival. Can say it went well considering I'm back here."
"You can say that again." Muffet stated as she looked Y/N up and down. The scars he had when he first met her still edged into his skin. Muffet felt extremely guilty at that moment. She had even caused a few of those scars herself.

"Whats up?" Y/N asked as he noticed Muffets glum expression.
"Nothing... It's just... I never apologised for giving you those scars..."
"No need to." Y/N raised his hand as he brushed off Muffets half apology. "The way I see it is that you did what you needed to. You needed to protect your spiders and I was just some random guy."
"It still doesn't give me the right to have viciously attack you..."
"You say attack like I didn't just come marching into your home."
"I'm glad you did in the end."
"Me too." Y/N and muffet exchange a small smile.

As these smiles were being exchanged, he looked behind muffet to see the two sweaters women watching the two. One had a look of surprise, this was the one in the blue and purple striped sweater. The other, Chara Y/N believed her name was, had a look of pure neutrality.
"Uhm... Muffet. Who are they?" Y/N asked as he gestured to the two women behind her. Muffet peered behind her as her expression lifted.
"Ah. You'll know those two let me call them over." Y/N watched as muffet walked over to their booth.
'I'll know them? Sure I do recognise one of them... and the others name... Asgore why did you have to stab me through the head... maybe I might remember better if you put your trident through my chest instead' Y/N chuckled at his thought. It sure was one dark topic but fuck it. He's seen enough to give him the right to at least think about said topics.

Y/N carefully watched as the muffet came back with the sweater equipped pair. Y/N slid over in his booth slightly as muffet sat next to him as the other two sat opposite to him and muffet. A silence fell on the four. So, Muffet attempted to break said ice with a bombshell.
"Y/N. This is Frisk. She's the one you helped to break the barrier." Y/N's eyes shot open. He looked frisk up and down.
"Christ... You were just a kid when that happened. You looked no older than 15..." Y/N muttered as he turned to Muffet. "How long have I been gone for..?" This question made Muffet extremely sad. She definitely missed Y/N while he was gone.
"10... 10 years..."
"Holy shit... I've missed loads then, huh? Well anyway." Y/N shrugged it off like it was nothing. It was easy to tell he was the soul of perseverance. Especially, with how he just got on with life as it came to him. "Nice to finally meet you again. We never formally introduced ourselves." Y/N smiled as he stuck out his hand which Frisk accepted.
"It sure is nice to meet you again mr. L/N. Toriel still speaks very highly of you." Frisk gave Y/N a large smile. Damn she was cute.
"Please, call me Y/N... Toriel? She's still around?"
"Sure is. I can call her now to tell her your here."
"No. Don't sweat it. I'm sure we'll have our little reunion later... And you." Y/N smiled once again.

"What's your name? I don't believe we've met before."
"Chara." Y/N stuck out his hand as she looked to Frisk who gave her a thumbs up before she reluctantly shook it.
"Chara, huh? Sorry if this is a little rude or a bit too forward to the point but... your name it's familiar. I've heard it somewhere."
"Yeah... I'm the first human who fell."
"O-oh. I see. Then you must be must have been adopted by the dreamurr's then."
"H-how do you know that?" Chara trembled slightly. Not many knew of her past. Just those in the underground. Y/N, certainly, shouldn't of knew this information.
"Toriel had pictures. Of you and Asriel. I asked her one day and she told me the story... Speaking of asriel is he... alive again?" Y/N asked as Chara looked at Y/N with this depressed look. Frisk went to comfort.
"I'm afraid not... Gaster said he would begin to give him a soul but... nothing's happened yet." Frisk said glumly.
"I see. I'm sorry I asked that... It was a bit naive of me." Y/N apologised as Frisk waved it off but Chara didn't seem to shrug it off as well.

"Forgive me for this... But are you two... dating?" Y/N asked as he saw how the two comforted each other. Frisk and Chara blushed a deep red as Muffet tapped Y/N on the head.
"Y/N! You can't ask those things!" Muffet exclaimed as she placed her head in her hands to hide her embarrassment. Y/N seemed a little confused. Sure his question might of been... a bit inappropriate but in his mind it was a fair question to ask.
"N-not quite..." Frisk answered.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Y/N slightly turned his head as he shot the pair with confused look.
"Well we foster a pair of children... but we're not dating."
"Hmmm, weird thing to do if you aren't dating."
"We like guys dickward." Chara slammed her fist into the desk.
"Sure you do~" Y/N chuckled as muffet had enough.
"That's it I'm calling asgore. Maybe he'll talk some sense into you."
"What!? So soon?! I've only been alive again for a few hours and now I'm meeting everyone again?!" Y/N exclaimed as muffet left the room with Y/N following.

Chara and Frisk looked at each other and then looked back to Y/N following muffet. He sure was  a cute guy even with those scars.

Gaster was pounding his fist onto the a door of a house.
"Come on asgore! Open up! It's Gaster!" Gaster called out as he heard a gruff voice call back to him.
"I'm coming give me a moment!" The voice called out. A few moments later the door opened to reveal none other than the monster king himself. Asgore Dreamurr.
"Gaster! To what do I have the pleasure of seeing you here old friend?" Asgore smiled as he wrapped his arm around the scientist shoulder.
"Your highness-"
"Please, call me asgore, I'm no longer a king. And we are in the human world right now."
"Okay... So do you remember my work on the human souls?" Asgore nodded slowly as the memories of each soul came back to him even... him. The plucky soul of perseverance, the only adult man to have made it to the underground. The one who went the furthest, the strongest of the bunch, Y/N L/N.

"Well I was able to successfully resurrect one soul. The soul of perseverance, Y/N L/N." Gaster said with a smile. Proud of his own work.
"Really!? You must take him to me now!" Asgores eyes widened in surprise. He really wanted to make amends with Y/N.
"Sure thing he's in my lab. It's not far-" Gaster was cut off by Asgores phone ringing.
"Muffet?" She never calls me..." Asgore looked back to Gaster who gave the former king a thumbs up.
"Take it. Y/N can wait a few minutes longer." Asgore smiled at his friend as he took the call.

"Muffet... wait?! Really?! Keep him there! I'll be down in a few moments." Asgore turned back to gaster.

"It's Y/N... He's currently in Muffets..."
