Asgore x reader

-19-

We started by watching cartoons all morning, I gotta say monster cartoons aren't that different from our own cartoons. Dare I say some are copied, just re-drawn. 'Isn't that illegal? Well I'd understand why they would re-draw it, they don't want humans as characters so that makes sense. Right now they were playing a monster version of gravity falls. "How did they even know human shows to copy them?" I sigh massaging my head from confusion.

I hear Asgore chuckle next to me "There is a place in waterfall, a part of my kingdom that drops things from the surface." he softly says as to not distract the others from the tv.

"Wait, like a place made of water? Water from the surface washes up human trash and brings it here? That's not right." I say in the same tone.

"Well, there's nothing I can really do about it. But monsters like collecting some things that could hold some value, they're making the most of it." he says turning to face me. 

I feel a bit of guilt, 'I was sure humans damaged the earth with their littering, but some ending here, ugh I hate my kind.' I feel Asgore's eyes on me, I look over to him and awkwardly smile. 

"I mean, part of it has helped us progress so far as well.  wild plantation growing has helped us collect various kinds of food as well." He says tapping his chin as he tries to recall other things that might have been helpful. 

"Doesn't really mean its good tho." I frown. then shake my head, 'I'm killing the mood with my sourness lets just be happy.' I look up and tug a smile at my lips for Asgore, he returns one as well. The sadness in his eyes still remained, bags under them. 'Had he not slept well? Well how can you sleep well knowing you lost everything. Waking up thinking, more like hoping everything was a dream. That's right I have to talk with him, I have to make him feel better. Let me wait for a little while.'

I look around the room, everybody was either really focused on the tv, or asleep. Some cuddling once again. I look over at Asgore and tap his shoulder. He looks at me with confusion, his eyebrows furrowed. "Can we speak privately?" I say tilting my head. He nods and stands up, he holds a hand out to help me up. I take it gladly and don't let go as I lead him into Raven's cell, the furthest one from everyone. 

'Hopefully, this goes well.' I sit down on the bed, and pat the spot beside me, letting his hand go. He sits down beside me, placing his hands on his lap, as he looks down at me, his head tilted still with confusion. 

"I know you're a king, and your emotions and how you handle them is reflected on your kingdom. I know you're holding it all in, but you can let it go in here with me. Just let your emotions free, tell me all that is bothering you until your sadness goes away, or at least until you feel a bit better. Things like this aren't easy to live with." I say trying to sound the most compassionate I can, I haven't really done this kind of shoulder to cry on ever, so it's hard. He was quiet 'Oh no I said something wrong didn't I? Fix it!' I quickly look over to him startling him "Or you don't have to share at all, sorry if I'm being pushy. I just want to make sure you feel better before you go. I'll do anything you want to make you feel better. We can make some tea! How does that sound?"

He puts his hand on my head with that goofy smile of is. "Talking about it to someone who is willing to listen will do me some good." he says taking his hand away and placing it back on his lap.
