[Loop 13-28]

They say that when you change time, it adjusts itself to be as similar as possible to what it was. When you decided not to involve Bff/n, you made a new ally; Fresh. Fresh wasn't close to you in the first timeline.
Sure, he showed up, but due to you being caught up with all your other friends, what was going on and everything else, you hadn't had any time to talk to him. He seems to be the only Sans that remembers these full-world-resets.

He also acted like a near-identical past you. Maybe that's why you two grew close so quickly. Maybe it was trauma bonding? Fresh can only feel fear or anger... so why is he so clingy around you?
You didn't like to think about it much- it usually makes your head pound with unfathomable pain. You don't like to think about that either; it usually makes it worse.

You were a lot closer to Fresh than Ink, and Error seemed distant from you altogether. The most probable reason as to why you hung out with Fresh more were these two things:

1) He always seemed to initiate conversation.
Fresh is almost always nearby you; and it seems like he plans on keeping it that way. You're always to occupied w/ him to talk to Ink at all. Fresh seems satisfied with this.

2) Ink always says the same things.
It's become too predictable; too boring to converse with him when all he says are the same exact things from last loop.

Fresh has convinced you to open your eyes to many things.
The fact that this will likely go on forever. The same things will only be said if you act the same way. You have no repercussions, as nobody will ever remember the bad things you do... 

Sometimes you act on these urges and/or thoughtful reminders. You snap at some people, and break down in front of others simply because it   d o e s n ' t  m a t t e r.
Of course, after letting out your emotions (with the help of vials) for a few loops, you simply stop the whining/complaining and start putting in an effort to make you seem... different.

Fresh doesn't like it when you're different.
You're unpredictable, as is the rest of the world. When Bff/n calls, he immediately grabs the phone from your hands and hang up, almost as if to sharpen your resolve to not involve them. He's almost always moving around when everything's different, as if something could go horribly wrong in an instant (which is unfortunately true, but it hasn't happened yet). 

You try your best to make Fresh feel safe by bringing back familiarity. You may bring up old conversations with certain people, just so they'd say the same things around him. Fresh is very unstable with these constant loops, just as you.
He's never been stuck in a loop like Classic, Blue (though you aren't sure if he remembers or not), Fell, Dust (his resets have stopped, but the point still stands), etc. Neither have you, but you seem to be handling it better now that you've changed your mindset on things.

Maybe you could somehow make a life like this?
Yeah, all you need is Fresh.
