(~Your POV + Time Skip~)
"He d-doesn't remember, Mama. He doesn't know." Serif sobs out, brokenhearted. I pet his skull to comfort him. I don't know how to feel. Ever since I woke up, my soul feels numb.
From what the boys told me, we're in Papyrus' room. The boys told me the things that happened while I was out. We've been sitting in here for a long while, just trying to process everything. Papyrus is alive, but just like Asgore, he doesn't know us.
I can't tell what's worse: Honey being dead or him not knowing the life he left behind.
Serif is on my lap, crying loudly as he clings to me. Serif has always been more sensitive than his brother. Roman is sitting to the side of me, completely silent. Like me, he seems broken and defeated. I wrap an arm around him. Roman tears up and a low whine escapes him. "C'mere.. it's okay.. it's going to be okay.." I whisper. I squish them both while fighting back my own tears.
(~Honey's POV~)
I stand outside my bedroom door, listening in on their conversation closely.
'What am I missing?'
My hand remains on the door handle. I can't tell how many times I've wanted to go in and comfort them. My soul is literally aching with each cry I hear from those kids. For whatever reason, I just can't take it.
'I'm going in-'
Just as I turn the handle, the front door opens downstairs. "BROTHER, I'M HOME!" I take a shortcut downstairs to greet Sans, "Hey Bro." Sans gives me a disbelieving stare as he places a hand on his hip. "You're home early, Papyrus. I hope you didn't skip out of your sentry duties again." I put my hands in the pockets of my hoodie.
"Uh, about that- I found.. something..'
.
"WHAT?! WAS IT A HUMAN?! WHAT DID YOU FIND, BROTHER?! TELL ME!!!"
.
"..."(~Your POV~)
The house went quiet for a few minutes. We heard loud screams and then nothing. My eyes stay fixated on the door. I know that voice. Sans is here. Likely, he won't remember us either. Both of them are living life as if we never existed.
Both of the twins scream as the door is blown off the hinges without warning. I hold them close and prepare for anything. What I don't expect is for Sans to come charging in dressed in grey and blue body armor. It's such a contrast to the casual but cool clothes I saw him for the past twelve years or so. His eyes meet with mine as he screams excitedly, "HUMAN!" Papyrus steps into the room soon after him. Honey looks at the door on the floor and gives a nervous look, "That was a little unnecessary. You'll scare 'em, Bro."
"Sans doesn't scare me. I've gotten used to it. His enthusiasm matches no other person I've met." I state plainly. Papyrus gives me yet another gaze of puzzlement. I look away from him and back to Sans. He gets super close to the bed, observing the twins. His smile grows wider and his pupils shift to stars, "HELLO HUMAN'S OFFSPRING!"
Roman and Serif begin to giggle amongst each other. I smirk. We're way more comfortable with Sans, even if he doesn't remember us. That's reasonable considering that he's all the family we've ever had.
"Uncle SaNs! It'S us!" Serif says through his laughter. Serif suddenly catches himself and looks to me. Even for a brief moment, he forgot what we all know.
'He doesn't remember us.'
I sigh and mouth silently to him, "It's okay." "Maybe ThIs will remind ya-" Roman jumps onto Sans in a playful tackle. That was uncalled for. "RoMan-" I raise my voice but it's too late. The two go into a playful wrestling tournament on the floor. Squeals and laughter erupt from Serif as he watches them. How could I be the one to stop that?
