entranceway | [video] an un-bear-able time

[It's everyone's favorite loser skeleton. He's looking pretty tired.]

so that event was kinda fun, yeah? spent the whole time hanging out with a bear. can't say i've ever done that before, heh. he's--they're?--a pretty chill guy, or guys. good taste in music.

but it's pretty crazy. wonderland makes all these thinking, talking monsters, and then at the end of the event, poof. they're gone.

[Best not to think about it.]

that reminds me...

looks like my brother's gone home. [Gone home, back to being a pile of dust in the snow. Some other Sans will find him, and so on ad nauseum. But at least now Chara can't kill him. Again.] you mighta seen him around. tall skeleton, way cooler than me. all his stuff's gone and his room's back to the default. only one thing that means around here.

[He shrugs as if it doesn't really matter. And really, does it?]

[He's about to sign off on that note, but then he pauses. There's something else he should say. Something that, if he's honest with himself, he'd be remiss not to mention. Even though it's essentially pointless and won't change whatever is going to happen.]

by the way. there's two humans here now who came from my world. frisk and chara. you might see 'em around--they're pretty independent kids, but if people could keep an eye on them both, i'd really appreciate it. frisk's a good kid. chara's...kind of a hellion. heh.

[No one would believe the truth. Right?]

[He can't help snorting at that.]

what, you want a different kind of spam? sure. how about memes?

You're not very good at this "give Chara reasons to not come after you" thing, are you?

you seem like the "rare jerry" kind of kid.

That's it. You blew it. Truces are cancelled forever.

[He raises his hands.] heh, alright, alright, kid. no more spambots.

Then. I suppose...

I can admit you are no longer in my way.

I have nothing to gain by hunting you down. For the time being. If you change that, then I think you will find that I break promises even easier than you do.

and i won't have to show you a bad time.

[Yet. Sans isn't an idiot. They'll fight eventually.]

but try to leave the people here alone. yeah?

That's a big ask, Sans. They're all very, very human.

actually, they're not. some humans, some...not.

frankly, killing people here doesn't do much good for you. just makes it easier for all of them to believe me when i tell them what you're about. you wouldn't want that.

Like you told all the other monsters in the Underground about the anomaly, right?

I'm sort of interested, Sans. Exactly what would you tell them? "Hypothetically, this child might have been present in another who killed a bunch of monsters, but in another timeline that they went and undid. I think. Since I cannot exactly remember, on account of being so lazy."

Can't wait to see the proof you produce for those claims. Or are you just hoping everyone can innately sense who is or is not a bad person?

in this timeline? i didn't tell them anything.

[And if he remembers what he's said in other timelines, well, Chara doesn't get to hear about it.]

thing is, you're doing a pretty good job of providing the evidence so far.

* Despite my best efforts, I continue to be myself.

What a shame.

I saw no point putting on an act when I finally had control. Why would I put on an act now? Even just listening to conversations instead of plowing past is doing you a favour.

hey, i'm not complaining. makes my life easier.

Mine too, funnily enough. There's something to be said for the direct approach.

you won't be able to get the drop on any of them if they've figured out what you're after.

Do you think I needed to get the drop on anyone in the Underground? You certainly knew what to expect, and... well. You know.

humans are a lot tougher than monsters. you should know that.

But on the other hand. Humans deserve it. So I'll have motivation on my side, at least.

no one deserves what you dish out, kid.

Right. It's different when monsters kill human children. It's for an acceptable reason then.

acceptable? don't know about that. i don't really think there's a good, acceptable reason to kill anyone.

there are reasons, sure. they're just bad ones.

Strange that you would say that. You're not above a mercy killing to try and force a RESET. Because that timeline isn't good enough for your tastes.

Strange that anyone would say that. I don't see anyone delivering judgment to monsters with blood on their hands. Who makes the sins crawl on their backs, Sans?

like i said, kid. it's a reason, just not a good one. gets to the point where there's just no such thing as "the right thing" anymore.

don't know. not my department.

[A shrug, a "not my problem." Of course. Everyone gets forgiveness, mercy, justification. Someone else can handle justice for them.

But Chara. Should be burning in hell. Wasn't exactly the greatest person.]

A predictable answer, Sans. Exactly the one I expected.

yeah. i'm like the weather.
