MemoryTale --- Hopes and Dreams

Frisk suffers and tries to sleep. Tries is a keyword.

"I'm here! I'm- I'm here! Everything is okay and I am still alive!" Frisk said, partly out of breath.

"That really isn't something you're allowed to say once you've died once-" Asriel muttered. Frisk just shushed him.

"GREAT! I'M GLAD YOU'RE HERE! AND YOU BROUGHT FLOWERY TOO!"

"It's Flowey," Asriel muttered.

I'm pretty sure we corrected him literally last week. He was getting it right not very long ago.

And look where that's going! And Chara's not going to correct him because he doesn't care as much!

Asriel happily awaited the day he got his life back. Not just for that but really for everything else that comes with having a physical body and also not having to puppeteer the worst actor ever into not ruining his life.

No offence.

"Yeahhh, I'm here," Chara said quietly, "I am just gonna stay out here though, okay?"

"Ah, I suppose that makes sense," Frisk said.

"NO WORRIES, FLOWERY! I UNDERSTAND, MAKING NEW FRIENDS IS HARD SOMETIMES, BUT REST ASSURED, UNDYNE IS VERY NICE WHEN SHE IS NOT MURDERY!"

"I am... Very sure of that? It's just that I want a rest," Chara said semi-unsurely.

Asriel kept his mouth shut, only for the reason any corrections about the tone of voice were now obsolete due to him finishing his sentence and more likely distracting then anything.

If only there was a way to have the talk about how to talk before he talked!

...Ugh, that was too many of the word 'talk' in one sentence. Whatever.

"DO NOT FRET, THAT IS PERFECTLY UNDERSTANDABLE BY MONSTERS WHO ARE SANS, AT LEAST!" Papyrus reassured(????) him.

It seemed Chara didn't know quite how to react to that either and chose to stay quiet for his own sanity's sake. Probably.

This was salvageable still. Probably.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Frisk was genuinely too tired to be scared at this point.

It was a weird feeling, meta-thinking being scared like she was, but she didn't really care. Maybe she was too tired to care too.

Either way, Chara and Papyrus were engaging in some sort of conversion that clearly one party didn't want to be there (she had two guesses and the first one didn't count) and now they were looking at her-

Okay right. Undyne.

"We should get going," Frisk smiled.

"EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!" Papyrus immediately said with way more enthusiasm then Frisk could muster on a good day.

"Well, have fun?" Chara tried. There was an attempt to be nice, at least.

"See you soon!" Flowey shouted, which was way too positive for the implication that the soon would be in five minutes when Frisk kicked the bucket. Again. At least Chara tried. Frisk instinctively rolled her eyes, but luckily Papyrus didn't notice.

Flowey turned to Chara and told him to hide slightly better because avoiding socialisation was one of Chara's few hobbies.

"HERE, GIVE HER THIS GIFT. SHE LOVES THESE!" Papyrus handed Frisk a very obviously wrapped up bone.

"I'm going to be honest, she'll know that's from you."

"HOW DO YOU KNOW?"

"It's a bone..?"
