*The group had gone down to an abandoned cathedral that had become a popular tourist location. Mettaton had it booked for a photoshoot for his new Fall/Winter fashion line. While the camera crew and photographers set up their equipment, Mettaton had the others try on the outfits for the photoshoot.*

Mettaton: I hope you all love these outfits. I had them made with each of us in mind.

Uniqua: Sweet! I totally see the vision, dude! I have just one small problem with mine, though.

Mettaton: Oh, what's wrong with it?

Uniqua: I-Isn't there supposed to be slits in the back for my tail and wings?

Mettaton: It's backwards, honey.

Uniqua: W-Why did you add more to the back if it wasn't supposed to be worn like this?

Mettaton: I'm trying to avoid incomplete patterns. They look awkward.

Uniqua: I see it now! Give me a few minutes to switch it around.

*While Uniqua fixes her outfit, the others join Mettaton.*

Hoth: So, I did some research on this place before coming over. This cathedral was a sacred building for various religious ceremonies back in its prime. Everything changed when the priest tried to summon dark spirits to do live demonstrations during mass.

Pixelle: According to the locals, he was successful. Demons were granted access to the mortal realm. In his demonstrations, he would instruct these spirits to possess volunteers in order to show real sin. Then, he would hold an exorcism to promptly rid them of the demons, saving his devoted followers. Things only got worse when the demons figured out his plan. They began terrorizing the locals, possessing anything and everything, creating chaos all throughout the town, and driving more and more people to the cathedral.

Hoth: The priest performed huge exorcisms to flush out the demons before they tore the town to shreds. Unfortunately, they weren't enough to stop them. Word got around to their leader who cursed the priest to live out the rest of his years in chronic pain and mental instability. After he died, his soul remained trapped here among the mortals. Over time, people began leaving the religion. Every priest and priestess who came after him met the same fate. No one wanted to witness the same events over and over again. Now, the religion and this cathedral remain old legends. Some say the original priest who caused this still roams the cathedral and cemetery. They've seen shadowy figures lurking, reciting old hymns and prayers while searching for the one to break the curse and set him and the others free.

Frisk: That sounds pretty crazy. Did it really happen or is it just a rumor?

Pixelle: I've run a similar simulation while we were studying this destination. While it sounds far-fetched, it does seem likely.

*Uniqua finally joins the group.*

Uniqua: So, who's ready for a little adventure? We may be here to model these fits, but I'm still hoping to fight something.

Mettaton: Not in that fit, darling.

Uniqua: Then, why did you give me armor?

Mettaton: It's not supposed to be functional or durable. I added it because I know you have this habit of putting on this strong, brave, and bold facade.

Uniqua: I'll give you that. You didn't do too bad without proper fitting appointments. I can at least move and breathe in this.

Mettaton: Now, we will be here all day to get the best lighting, angles, and shots. I want all of you to be yourselves and show who you truly are. Fashion and style are just more ways to express your character.
