When Sans arrived, Papyrus and Gaster were right next to Chora and Frisk. “What’s wrong with them?”
“Their previous joinings have flooded their memories in a different way,” Gaster said. “They have evened out, but not in the right way. Their minds are trying to retrieve all of their memories, one at a time. It refuses to retrieve in combination though.” He touched Frisk’s head.
“Where’s Pappy?” Frisk slurred. “My poor Pappy. He should be here right now, he likes being near our pups.” She turned to look toward Sans. “Oh, human Sans. Where is your human Frisk? Oh, Sans. You should at least wear something to show that you are King. It will make the citizens happier. I loved your new yellow jacket. What happened to that? Do you think you like the newest courter at all? Please, please!” She turned away. “I’m sorry for what another me did, but I would never hurt your world!”
“They are all separate,” Sans said sadly. Their minds weren’t joining their memories. “They can’t even remember different selves now?”
“Their minds are currently switching on and off,” Gaster insisted, “between memories. They are shifting through a hundred different memories every few minutes or so.”
“That’s no way to live,” Sans said. “That’s no way to live at all! Help them?”
Gaster sighed. “I have something that is experimental, but we already know we don’t like experimental,” he warned Sans. “Since some monsters would rather not have all three memories, I have been figuring out how to delete certain memories. I cannot select what is brought here, but I should be able to take away. I don’t know if it will have any other affect though.”
Oh. “Could she die from it?” Sans asked.
“No, I don’t think so,” Gaster said. “However, it could roast all of her memories. She may be left with nothing.”
“Amanda too?” Papyrus asked.
“Yes,” Gaster told him. “Both of them. It’s experimental though, I can’t stress that enough.”
“I won’t let Frisk live this way just because it’s experimental,” Sans said.
“I agree,” Papyrus said, looking toward Amanda. “They can’t live this way. On and off memories, shifting through a hundred every few minutes.”
“Okay then. This process can’t just find a dimension and delete it,” Gaster said. “Nature didn’t label the dimensions, Maritime Sans did. What I need . . . is a keyword to find in the memories. If it doesn’t strike, it deletes.”
A keyword?
“It should be unique. The more unique to a certain dimension, the easier,” Gaster said. “A certain word or phrase that will excite the memory.”
Wait. “Ladykid,” Sans tried. “Can you try Ladykid?”
“Well, I know that exists in at least one dimension,” Gaster chuckled at Sans. “Papyrus?”
“I . . .” Papyrus scratched the back of his skull. “I don’t know. A keyword? To just one Amanda?”
“You want Amanda as she’d been?” Sans asked. “Fun level 74?”
“Yes. I can work with that. Do you know a keyword, Sans?”
Sans stretched slightly, then rolled his shoulders. “Kendrick.”
“Kendrick?” Papyrus asked. “Who was he?”
The boyfriend who fucked Cindy, but Sans wasn’t going to tell Papyrus that! “Just something. Just try Kendrick, Gaster.”
