You soon woke up from your dreamless slumber. It was the first time in almost... Months? Years? You honestly don't know anymore. It's been a while and this author isn't exactly the best with keeping a consistent upload schedule. Seriously man, get your sh*t together.

You wake up, taking a few minutes to stare at the ceiling and slowly sat up. You put on your glasses, now needing them because of your horrible eyesight, before smelling something strange, but... Delicious? From outside in the kitchen. You work yourself off of the bed, putting on some comfortable clothing and walk out, did one of your friends break in while you were asleep? It wasn't unusual if it happened.

Instead of finding one of your friends, you actually find... Gaster? You could've sworn last night was a dream, it must've been with how crazy it was, maybe your hallucinating? You shake your head, ridding the thought from your conscious and take a seat. "So, you really are real... Your name was Gaster, correct?"

The skeletal man stops for a moment and looks behind him, seeming flustered that you caught him cooking "Õ̷̩͖h̷̜̿!̶̩̏̉ ̴͙̾̋H̸̡͚͆͘ȩ̴̮̇͆ĺ̴̹͛ľ̵͖͇o̴̼͠,̴͙͙̈ ̷͎̣̍̔Ï̶̥ ̶͚̖̒̈h̴̨̪͒â̸̰̹d̸̛̘n̶̺̊'̵̌͋͜͜t̶͓̏͛ ̵̹̚r̵̯͒ë̶̖̰́͝ä̴͎̯́̎l̶̞͐̔i̸͙̼̔͊ź̷̯͜e̷̼̼͝ḍ̶̛͔́ ̶̛̪̂y̷͎͠o̴͓͋u̸͉͓̿́ ̶̖̞̏̈́h̶̯̓͝a̵̬̾̇d̴͖̿͆ ̸͙̑a̵͋̿ͅw̵̠̿̕à̵̡̹k̶̛̗̀e̴̳̅́n̶̛̖ ̷̝̒͆ÿ̶̻͈e̸̪͗̚t̶͓͎̕.̶̙̲̓̑ ̴̣̂̃I̵͓͠'̶̻̓͗m̶̤̄ ̷͍̏̓s̴͍͘ò̸͈͛r̶̙̟͂r̸̳̯̈́y̸̰̓ ̷̟́i̶̞̘̽f̸̭̋̾ ̶̤̊͒t̷̘͙͆̏ḩ̸̓i̸̯̙͆͠s̵̡̐ ̶͍͇̋ḭ̷͒s̴͉̮̾ ̶̨͌͜͝s̴̝̤͊͝u̶̢̘̔̓d̶̯̖͐̔d̶̯͕̔͒ẹ̷͖̓̍n̴̮͎͘,̴̰͔͒ ̶̼̈́b̴̓̿͜u̷̩͛̕ṭ̵̊ ̷͍̀̕ẙ̵̆͜e̵̢͌s̸̺̤̄ ̴̪͋Ĩ̶̩͚ ̸̙̏͐͜a̶͍͍̕ḿ̷̰ ̷͉͛͂ͅG̸̰͂̀a̵̝̾̈́s̵͔͆ṱ̷̋͆e̶̼͋r̸͈̞̒͘,̸̡̼̐ ̸̩̳̇͂W̸͔̕ͅ.̷̣͕͠D̴̯̬̋.̴̣͊ ̴̖̻̇́G̸̦͉̋a̸̲͛s̵̹̼̋t̴̠͖͛e̴̳͚̅r̴̯̼͗.̸̞͗͐ ̶͍̱̉̅I̸̠͙̊s̷̫̉ ̵̰͚͛e̷̥̖̒̔v̵̤̠̐͊ḛ̴̊r̷͉̣̍͛ỹ̶̼̞ť̸͖̐h̴̲̓̀ī̴͇ṉ̸̒g̴̦̍ ̸͓̪̑ä̴̻́̈l̶̨͋r̴͙̀͝i̵̦͊̑g̵̛͋ͅĥ̴̳̅t̷̢̏?̴͈̹͂̍ ̷̠͂Y̸̼̚ô̶̧͙u̵̡̿ ̴̯̫̋̚s̵̰̘̉ẻ̴̖e̴̻̰̾m̷͚̍ ̵̨̤̾̌ŝ̸̢h̷͓̆͘á̸̧͝k̴͔̬͗è̴͇͂ṅ̴͓́ ̸͍̱͌u̴̜͊̑p̷̨̍.̷͙́" his voice was weird, almost like it was here and wasn't... Like it was also stuck somewhere else. "H̴̤̆̾o̶͔̤͐͠w̶̛͖ ̶̗̱͑d̵̢̰̍͋i̸̧͔̔̽d̸͔̒ ̴̩̦̄̒y̵̨̟͋̀o̶̧̎u̷̝̜͒͂ ̸̭͎̊s̴̳̑ļ̶̊͑ę̵͊̂ȇ̷̜̂p̷̹̈?̶̻̬̅"

"Why are you asking me...? You have some things to answer before I answer anything for you mister. Why are you here? And what was that thing last night? Why did it attack me? And how come you keep popping up in my dreams and now real life?" You started to ramble off multiple questions, almost never seeming to stop.

Gaster puts down what he was doing and sits down across from you and calmly waits for you to finish your questions. He was quiet for a little before sighing "Ị̶͝'̶͖̹͚̑̾̍m̷̖̋̄̈ ̵̨̽a̵̪̩̕f̵̡̞̓͝r̷̻͛̃a̵̛̳̹̥̎̄i̵̯̞̇̈́͠d̶͎̼͛ ̷̗̈́̿Į̵̡̈́̈́ ̸̬͈̣̽̃̽c̷̯̫̈́a̷̳̔̕ñ̴͚̆̉'̶͕͚͗͋̔t̶̛̘̳̊ ̷̗̜̊̒ã̸̖̱n̶̟͐̓̓s̸̛̮̘̓́ẅ̶̧̙͝e̴͖̓̋r̶͚̂͑͊ ̷̫͉̮͋͐ḁ̸̡̧̀͘͝l̴̛̮͚͑̕l̷͉̩̜͌ ̵͍̓̽̒ơ̸̰f̶̨̢̩͆͝ ̵̹̙̃t̸͚̆͑ẖ̶̲̳̏̽o̴͉̪̒̇̒s̸̟̥̔͊͠ḛ̵̢̺̀̀͠ ̶͚͚̽̈́q̶̨͕̼̔ȗ̸͍̥̃̌ȩ̷̨̪͆̋̌s̵̺̅͗̾t̴̩̤̮͘i̴͚̥̓ö̴̧́n̵͓͎̮̑̀͗s̸̨̰̟̆͘ ̷͙͎̾̑ỳ̴͖̋e̴͙͉͆́ţ̷̮̳̑̇̿ ̶̠̟͗͌́m̸̧̊ẏ̵͔̝̲ ̴̤̊d̸͖̕ê̶͚͉̄̋a̷̜͈̔͒͌͜r̶͚̈́͠,̵̨͖̐̔̍ ̴̜̓̽͛b̶̫̊u̸͓̠͐͂̓t̷̼̦̐̄̚ ̶̟̮͐I̸̙̗̋̌̆ ̶̠̍̎̄ẉ̴͚̄̽i̴̗̼̭͑ĺ̵͙̪͙l̷̲͙̪̚ ̴̲̊ș̸̇̏o̷̭̕o̷̱̼̓n̵̞͋̈́̃ ̸̧̙̂͊w̵̡̆h̷͙͖̊͑͠ê̵̹̻̄n̶̼̒̾̽͜ ̸̨̐̉̊I̵̞̔͑̒ ̷̧̡̪̀͑h̶͚̀ḁ̴̘̓͝ṿ̵̱̳̚ę̴͇̄̉̾ ̸̤͒͒ḁ̷̢̃͐͝n̴̟̖̑̏̚ŝ̵̢͂w̵̡̺͑̈ȩ̵̈͜ȓ̸̘̆̓ş̷̦́̌̒ ̴͑͐͜f̵̝̯̥̃ó̷͔̭ȓ̸̫̰̯ ̶̞̫͋͘m̵̭̆y̸͍̆̎s̷̲̽̾̚ȩ̷̰̈́̃̉l̴̝̬̏̋f̴̤͉̂͘.̸̨͉̺̈́ ̶̨̄̽̌I̸̻̟͋́ń̷̖̪͝ ̵͉̦̻̿͂͝t̸̡̻͉̀o̷̮͓̼͊͝t̷͓̃a̵͎͇̕l̸̰͂̈́͂ ̴̼͔̽h̵͈͓̥̑͝ō̵͇̱͌͘ṉ̶̐ȇ̴̪̣̓͊s̸̫̬̥̈t̷̥͎̃̓͜͝y̷̩͛̎̓,̵͙̐͝ ̵̤̙̘̚I̸̠̋̾ ̷̣̼̔d̸̻͈͖̉̈́ȏ̸͉̉ ̸̺͕̓n̵͖̜̈́ő̵͔́̈t̴͚͇̃ ̵͍̊k̶̹͔̑͆ṋ̵͎̹́͗͝ô̴̩̦w̸̼̋́̂ ̴̢̾̋̾h̷̡̜͆̓ͅò̸͕͛͝ẘ̸̦̈́ ̴̰̱̀̎w̷̖̹̓̄͝e̵̜̻̍̌ ̵͋̾ͅͅá̸̩̭͝r̸̢͉̋e̶̢̛̬͑̚ ̴̨̦͈̓c̵̖̱̊ō̵̞̋n̵̜̫̉ņ̶̰̗̒͗ẹ̶̈́̈́͜č̸̩͇̾͜t̴̡̜͠ë̴̫̲̘́̂͘ḓ̵̉,̷̳̤͑́ ̵̨̛̇̈́o̴̥͛t̸̲̝̗̋h̸̻͈̗̑e̶̙̼̣͊r̶̨̓ ̸̳̟̐ṭ̶͆͊͘h̵͉̑ä̶͕͎̠́ǹ̷͓̞̍ ̴̢̭͙͂̋̈́t̶̫͉̜̃h̴̞́ŕ̵̜o̸̲̾̓u̷͎̍͠g̵̠̏́͋h̶̠̐ ̷̢͈̔͠ṫ̶̯̫̤͛h̴̝̼̪̎̂i̷̧̹̿͊͜ş̷̝̥̋̀͠."

Which is good.

You could feel yourself relax a little as the heart disappeared, the skeletal man smiling a little, well more nicely than what he was already doing.

You stared at the food for a little before picking out your favorite pieces "I will take it as one, but you need to figure out how to fix this as soon as possible, okay?"
