Experimentation: An Underswap Fanfiction

Interaction

        Temmie quietly walks behind Sans. She doesn't want her subject or anyone else to know she's here. She peers over his shoulder and looks at him. His face is painted with an upset expression. He's so focused on his thoughts that he doesn't even notice her. Her stomach twists excitedly on the anticipation of this run. Why hasn't she done this sooner? She lets out a greeting that breaks the erie silence in this over familiar forest.

"hOI!"

He glances over at her quickly and jumps at the sudden noise.

"Agh!" He screams quietly. A slight pause occurs as the two exchange looks. Temmie smiles brightly while Sans stares confusedly. "Wh-who are you?" He stammers. A sense of disappointment washes over Temmie. Usually Sans responds happily to her greeting. But she doesn't let it bother her. The urge to find out what happens at the end of this new conversation overpowers any other feelings she has.

"i'm tEMMIE!" She answers gleefully as she hops onto the bench. She cocks her head to the side pretending to look concerned for Sans. "y so saed?" She asks. To get the reaction she wants, she constantly has to fake looks and expressions. Although irritating, the results make up for it. Sans darts his eyes nervously as he thinks of an answer.

"Oh- I uh..." He stops his trail of thought as he hides his lower half of his face in his bandana. He shrugs sadly. Temmie can't help but frown. He certainly isn't making this any easier. Maybe she has to make a stronger approach. She stomps her left front paw harshly which hastily gets Sans' attention.

"OKi, lets juste gaet 2 da poEnt," Temmie says loudly, almost a shout. "Thate smoke haED shOre es aN jerk hUh?" She smiles slyly. She has never insulted Papyrus in front of Sans. And it sure felt good. She barely expresses her feelings about anyone to anybody. Now is the perfect time to do so. Sans squints his eyes slightly as he looks down at the ground puzzled.

"Smoke head...?" His eyes widen as he looks at Temmie attempting to hide his offense for his brother. "Papyrus!?" Temmie nods eagerly.

"Of corSE U no who i'm taLkeng aboT Sans." She says. Fear strikes Sans' face. He backs up uneasily. He never told this cat his name. Let alone met her!

"H-how do you know my name?" Sans questions worriedly. Temmie takes more steps towards Sans threateningly.

"o sans... Eye nO evry1's namES. PapyRUS, ALphys, Undyne... end i've talKED 2 evry singl 1 of dem." Her smile widens. "Encluding u SAns." Temmie notices that she might be getting ahead of herself. But there's no going back now. She is determined to get what she wants. So what if some feelings are hurt? Besides, it's not like her determination will be overcome by another. Meanwhile, Sans' fear shifts to terror. Whoever this cat is, she isn't the safe. He wants to be back home with Papyrus. He wishes he didn't argue with Papyrus. He begins to tremble slightly as he grabs his arm seeking assurance from himself.

        "I'm sorry... I-I don't-" Sans' is cut off by Temmie who is smiling happily.

        "U nevAR bor me Sans. u always hav someting intRESTing 2 say." She looks to the side vexatiously. "NoTe leik HIM." She says mockingly. She HATES Papyrus. He always acts so smug like he knows everything. He already knows... Enough. It's like he isn't affected from the resets. She always tries to lead Sans as far away from him as possible. But he always chooses him over her. Her heart burns at the thought. She convinces herself she isn't feeling jealously and rolls her eyes disgustedly. "EnD, eye no thatE we both R sick of him rite noAW. all he dos es ly arond makeng smiRKey remArks end he tells U how 2 du ur job? WorthLES. aren't u tiared of thATE Sans?" Sans wants to disagree strongly but, something is holding him back. He loves his brother very much but... has he been treating him fairly? Sans realizes what he just thought and is immediately disgusted with himself as he looks down disappointedly.

        "Well... Um..." Sans says consciously.

        "WAt if..." Temmie quickly responds. "We maek teh situasiON mor... injoyabl 4 the both of uS?" Her grin grows. Her sharp teeth begin to show and her black soulless eyes get wider. "All we hav 2 du... Es get rID of him ANd a few outhers..." Sans responsively grabs his bandana where is soul is tightly. He can feel it thump faster and faster. He's terrified. He wants Papyrus with him. He scoots back farther onto the edge of the bench. He felt as though the atmosphere in the forest was getting even more unsettling than it already was. Temmie inches closer and closer towards him. "u'll achIEv all of ur DREEms!" Sans looks at Temmie mortifyingly as she giggles softly. "it'll b U anD me Sans. 4evr."
