MemoryTale --- Hopes and Dreams

Two skeletons are one skeleton too many -Asriel, probably

Everything happens for a reason.

That's been my motto for the longest time. My parents died when I was young? Everything happens for a reason. I fell down a mountain? Everything happens for a reason. My plan to ultimately commit suicide and kill some humans to free monsterkind failed, and instead, I forced my foster-father to kill six children to keep a promise, and my mom leaves because she hates him now?

Screw you, Asriel. That didn't need to happen.

Maybe I should change my motto, so it becomes; Everything happens for a reason, but usually not a good one.

"Chara! Are you okay?" Frisk said. I clutched my stomach.

"Just spacing out," I explained. Frisk slid her foot across the floor.

"Sorry. Thought that something was up."

"Something is up. The top of this cavern." Frisk and Asriel looked at each other as Frisk started to giggle.

"Please don't encourage him," Asriel sighed. Frisk grinned.

"And if I do?" She taunted. He sighed.

"You've already seen what I can do."

Frisk obviously knew what he was talking about as she hung her head in shame.

"I'm still sorry about that. It's a wonder I'm not having a breakdown whenever I see someone," Frisk murmured. She sat down and held her legs between her arms, rocking back and forth. My limbs still didn't like Frisk, so I decided against hugging her. I didn't know why. Asriel groaned.

"We're not going to go anywhere at this rate! Stop your moping and move it!" He complained. Frisk gave a sad smile.

"Give me a minute... I... Don't like thinking about that," She mumbled. Asriel groaned.

"Fine! Take your gosh-freaking-darn time while we have to wait for you and sit here and suffer," He huffed. I rolled my eyes.

"Ignore him, take your time," I reassured her.

"Of couse it is," Asriel mumbled under his breath. I glared at him. I sighed at his idiocy.

"Do you want something amusing to do?" I asked. He nodded.

"Suffer."

Asriels petals drooped a little. I pulled out my phone and pretended to be a teenager, though I guess I am a teenager, and messaged someone just to ignore everyone.

-who are you

-also why do i recognize your number

I paused. I forgot Sans was the only person on my contacts. Whoops. I didn't want to make Frisk load over the fact that I accidentally messaged Sans with 'younger siblings are so annoying am i right or am i right?'

I didn't even know it was possible to text someone accidentally.

I could ignore this, or I could respond with something stupid.

-someone with a younger sibling

-duh

Sans seemed to be typing for an extended period.

-okay fair

-but who are you???

"What'chu doing?" Asriel asked. I hissed and floated higher up.

"Mine," I hissed. He hissed back.

"I'm bored Chara! Give me something to do!" He exaggerated, "I'm going to die."
