Truffles: ... (Rose: She said she has no idea how to write A/N's.. *facepalm*)
It was mid-afternoon. A little girl was playing with a doll. And
totally not ripping its head off. And arms. She wasn't laughing
maniacally, or anything! The girl put all the body parts back in
place. "Azzy! I fixed the hideous thing!" She called, throwing the
doll to him. And accidentally hitting the goat boy in the face with
it.
"H-Hey!" Asriel answered as the doll fell from his face to the floor. Its left arm had already fallen off again from the throw. "St-stop t-tearing it apart! I doubt the doll would like it." Asriel commented. He had picked up the doll and was trying to reattach the arm. "You ought to stop it, m-mom and dad and going to come in here again.
"Heheh, sorry, Azzy." Chara laughed awkwardly, looking guilty. She
frowned, before glomping her brother. "The doll's mean, though, ya
know. Look at her disgusting face. It's covered in makeup! Speaking
from experience, she's a stuck up bi-" Chara stopped herself from
swearing, her cheeks flushing. "Don't tell mom." She whispered.
"Right..." Asriel nodded continuing to try to mend the doll back together but to no avail. "How are we going to explain this to mom, Chara? She doesn't buy dolls for them to be ruined." (A/N: Geddit? RUINed?) Asriel noted. "B-But it's fine that you enjoy that. I was just thinking." The child set the doll aside. U-Uhhh..." Chara frowned. Suddenly, a sly grin spread across her face. "We hide it, of course!" The girl laughed silently, picking up the doll.
"Um... okay?" Asriel scrambled to his feet taking the left arm that Chara had left. "Where?" He asked simply, his eyes now darting around the room.
"Right over there-" Chara was cut off by the sound of steps coming from
out the door. "Dang it! Go distract mom!" Exclaimed the girl, her
eyes wide. Chara shuffled to the hiding spot: under a loose floorboard.
"Right!" Asriel slipped out of the door and into the hallway, waving at his mother. "Hello mom!" Asriel smiled trying to act natural. "Are you going to make another pie tonight?" The child asked. "You know how we love them."
Toriel immediately knew something was up, but did not show it. "My
son, there is still pie left over from last night, remember?" She
raised an eyebrow.
"O-Oh, right!" Asriel bit his lip, hoping Chara had acted quickly. The child doubted he would be able to stall much longer. "Sorry mother! It seemed like an eternity since you left the house. We're so glad you're back!" Asriel smiled and cocked his head.
Toriel smiled, picking up her son and nuzzling his cheek. "I missed
you too, my sweet little boy." She said, her smile growing. Chara
opened the door. "Mom!" She exclaimed, running over to the goat and
hugging her legs.
Seeing Chara leave the room let a wave of comfort run over Asriel, as he too joined in, hugging his mother. The child almost buried his face into her cloak, realizing that his ruse did have a good amount of truth behind it. This made him feel a bit better about what had happened.
Toriel picked up Chara, too. "Hello, dear. Did you have fun with Asriel?" Asked the mother. Chara nodded, kissing Toriel. "Yeah! I accidentally threw a toy and hit Azzy's face, though.." The little girl closed her eyes, frowning. "Did you apologize, like we have taught you?" Toriel asked, her eyes widening. Asriel nodded for Chara.
"Good girl." Toriel praised. She began walking to the bedroom that
Chara and Asriel shared. "You two are very messy!" She laughed. A
comforting, familiar laugh. "How about we tidy up a bit before dinner,
children?" Toriel asked, putting the two down. "Your father will not
be very pleased to come home from Doctor Gaster's lab to find a big
mess, after all."
"We'll clean up for dad!" Asriel offered. "It will look like we weren't even in the house today." Asriel added. "I'll go ahead and start!"
"Are you sure that you do not need my help, dear?" Toriel tilted her head. "You usually jump at me offering." She frowned. "But I'm a big kid now, mom! I can do it myself, like everyone else does!" Asriel tried to stand tall and look independent but the stance just made him look awkward.
Toriel stifled laughter. "Just like your father." She remarked,
bending down and kissing her son's forehead. "Mommy, do we get to
read books again, before bed?" Chara asked, going over and hugging
Asriel tightly.
"If you get your mess cleaned up before dinner, then yes." Toriel answered. "But, my children, I sense that something is wrong. If you need to talk to someone, I am always ready to listen."
Asriel felt his breath being stolen from him for a moment but recovered quickly and squirmed out of Chara's grasp. "I'm fine!" He responded, darting into the his room.
Toriel looked a
bit worried, walking out of the room.
Chara sighed. " I.. Feel kinda guilty, Azzy.."
"B-But Chara..." Asriel paused for a moment. "No, you're right... w-we should... t-tell her."
"Why are you stuttering? Scared?" Chara asked, beginning to clean up the toys.
"N-No! I'm not scared! Give me the doll I'll go show her right now!" Asriel answered. "I wanna do it! I was the one who broke it." Objected Chara, crossing her arms stubbornly.
"Fine then! We'll both do it." Replied Asriel. "Where'd you put it?"
"I'll grab it." Said the little girl, walking over to a corner of the
bedroom and dislodging a floorboard to reveal the ruined doll.
"Here it is."
"Alright then, um... you should go first... since you broke it." Asriel said reluctantly. "Got it, bro." Chara put a brave face on, walking out of the bedroom with her brother in tow. "Mommy?!" She called.
"Yes, my child?" Called Toriel from downstairs. "Are you done
cleaning?" She asked. "Yes, but that's not why we need you. Can you
come upstairs, please?" Chara asked.
"Yes, Chara, I will be there soon." Toriel answered.
Asriel impatiently tapped his foot on the floor, a grim anticipation building within him. It was true that the fault wasn't exactly his, but he felt as if he and Chara might as well be connected with how close they had become.
Toriel climbed up the stairs. "What is it you two need?" She asked.
Chara took a deep breath.
"Well-I-thought-the-doll-you-got-me-was-ugly-cuz-she-looked-like-my-old-foster-mom-and-gave-me-bad-memories-so-I-broke-it-and-Azzy-couldn't-fix-it-so-I-hid-it-and-I-feel-really-bad."
The child gasped for breath, having said all that very quickly without breathing more than once. Asriel stared at his feet and waited patiently for his mothers response.
Toriel blinked. "My child, that was naughty. I understand, but you
will have to be punished. No pie or chocolate tonight." The mother
turned to Asriel. "Asriel, thank you for trying to repair the doll."
She picked up the two. "Chara, I am very proud that you came to me and
told the truth." Complimented Toriel, kissing her daughter. "My son, I
am glad you stood by your sister, even when you knew she was wrong to
hide it." Toriel nuzzled her son's cheek affectionately.
Chara frowned. "Are you upset, mommy? Do y-you... Hate me?" She asked.
The mother chuckled. "Never. I love you both very, very much."
Asriel nodded. "Thanks mother." he mumbled, feeling a bit upset. He faced Toriel and forced himself to smile. "I think a feel a bit better now..." he added to satisfy her.
"I feel as if something is troubling you." The goat monster set the squirming Chara down. "Going upstairs to color!" She explained, sending her racing up the stairs.
My son, what is troubling you?" Toriel asked, sitting down in her
rocking chair and holding him gently, a tender expression on her face.
"O-Oh, it's nothing, just about what Chara had said about her um... "old foster mother." That's all." Asriel confessed, snuggling into his mother's arms.
Toriel nodded, understanding completely. "When your sister is ready to
tell us about herself, she will. I have a feeling that more will come
trickling out as she grows." She comforted, rubbing her son's back. "I
have no doubt that the story will be frightening, but always remember,
we are all here for Chara. And you. No matter what." Voice soft, she
rested her chin on the top of Asriel's head, closing her eyes.
"Thanks mother." Asriel repeated, the child being a hint more truthful."I'll be with Chara ... Okay? Call me when dinner is ready."
Toriel nodded. "Is there anything else bothering you, my love?" She
looked into Asriel's eyes. "You do not have to keep troubling thoughts
bottled inside of you." His mother poked his belly, causing him to
giggle.
"I think that is all for now." Asriel decided after recovering his breath. "I'll tell you next time I promise." Asriel responded, and then ran towards his bedroom.
