Dear Darling Diary

The following is a collection of diary entries written by Mettablook, heir to the throne of monsters, from 6-18 yrs.

Dear Darling Diary,

Today is the start of my new life with King- I'm not sure how to spell it. Az-gor?

I asked, and he says it's 'Asgore'. I can remember that. My teacher says I have a good memory.

Last night it was hard to fall asleep. I kept having bad dreams about Mom and Dad dying, and then I woke up crying, but I tried to be really quiet. I don't want King Asgore to know that I'm sad about it, I want to impress him.

He spared my life. I owe him everything.

Dear Darling Diary,

First day of school. Everyone knows now that I live with the king. No one's mean anymore. Not even Napstablook or Undyne.

Dear Darling Diary,

I told King Asgore he probably couldn't hurt me 'cause I'm incorporeal. He asked me if I'd forgotten what he did to my parents, and I realized I can't really remember, and I told him so.

He looked at me and proved to me exactly how he can hurt me. Then he told me to watch my mouth and not say things I didn't mean. Then he walked away.

He's so strong.

Dear Darling Diary,

I didn't get a very good first term report card. I've still been having nightmares. I don't really remember about what. I think it's about my parents dying, but that whole day is still blacked out in my memory for some reason.

King Asgore hurt me for it and told me that if I didn't shape up, I'd join my parents after all.

Dear Darling Diary,

Merry Christmas! Big fluffy goat dad gave me a knife and told me to have fun with it.

I must be the world's most terrifying six year old!

Update: I cut someone with the knife. Is this how it feels to be strong?

I can't tell if I like this.

Dear Darling Diary,

I turn seven today! This is weird. I've been with the king for exactly a year. My parents have been gone. For a year.

I asked King Asgore, is he going to teach me to be strong?

He said he's already started.

I'm not really sure what he means.

-Mettablook

Dear Darling Diary,

The other kids respect me. They really do.

Mostly because if anyone tries to hurt me, I threaten to cut them with my knife. I know all the pain sensitive spots, King Asgore showed me.

It's a little weird, but I wanna survive in this world.
