Amanda. I miss you. Frisk looked down toward her stomach. When she had invincibility, at least she didn’t have to worry about her life or her children. Ever since Amanda’s voice stopped though, so did the invincibility. I wish you would say something. How are we going to get out of this jam? Sans the Skeleton was now traveling beside her. Sometimes he said something simple, but mostly he seemed to be quiet himself. Did he really accept that she wasn’t the monster he thought her to be?

“Tell her she’s pretty. Or, that she has a nice voice.”

Not my thing, Papyrus.

“Tell her she’s cute then. Tell her to umm . . . I don’t know? Share a sandwich? That sounds like something you would do.”

Don’t know.

“Well, say something!”

I can’t right now.

“Well, why not? Say something to her? Anything? You know she isn’t a monster now. You must care something for her now, right? Sans?”

Sans rubbed the front of his skull. He loved his brother. He did. Papyrus was the best, but he was taking on heated and weird mixed feelings. Even when he thought she was a sick creature that would turn on the Underground, he still had a protective instinct. His other instincts, he felt them, but he kept them more subsided. She was supposed to be an unfeeling beast, and knowing that made it easier to tolerate things.

But now? Something changed. More than one something. “So?” He looked toward her, but didn’t continue. He couldn’t just open with a joke. He couldn’t just say hi, they already met, and he couldn’t go through the things in his mind.

He had ideas and visions in his head. Things he knew happened between them. Things he really hoped Papyrus was not seeing. Things he’d never done with a woman at all. Things some Sans must have done with some Frisk to create the little monsters that were inside of her.

Without the invincibility, her belly was rounder. When they first started walking, it wasn’t long before a wild monster thought they’d get a two for one deal. He stepped in. Afterwards, she thanked him but he could tell she was shy, embarrassed and felt guilty about it.

And that made him want to protect her even more. And more to go with it. The hell did joining with my other self do to me? Shit. Monster instinct was powerful. Another version of her was evil and tore up the Underground.

“But, Sans! You said yourself that even you would turn.”

I know. And another thing. He loved his brother to death. Papyrus had been gone for so long, and he was back in his life. But, uh. A part of him kind of wanted him to . . . back off. But he didn’t want to risk hurting Papyrus’ feelings, or risk losing him forever because some original dimension fairytale ending didn’t happen. So, both of them were clashing. Look at how round she is. Those little souls are gonna need protection. I’m gonna have to put my magic on them. I am, it’s not an excuse to feel her. Seriously, she was a monster.

“But Sans!”

Shut it, Pap, I know! I’m trying to convince myself again because I just want to grab her and throw her down, and add some more souls to her! Shit. Sorry. Um, you weren’t supposed to hear that.

“Do you think Amanda is still in there?”

He just actually asked that? Oh. Double crapola, I wasn’t thinking about your wife being attached to the human, or you attached to me, or-
