Dana sips her coffee and sighs in contentment. It's been awhile since it was this quiet, Chara usually keeps things lively, she thinks.

Better go find her…

"Chara? Where are you?" Dana calls out as she looks through her living room. Speak of the devil. "I'm not setting anything on fire. You don't have to watch over me like that." Chara huffs. She goes over to Chara and ruffles her hair. "If I don't, everything is going to be on fire," Dana responds. "Go get dressed, we're going to the grocery shopping." Chara sighs and leaves. Oh well. Dana goes to the bathroom and looks in the mirror.

Good enough.


The ride to the grocery store was uneventful, Dana singing along with the radio and Chara telling her to knock it off. Classic Chara.

"What do you want for dinner?" Dana asks Chara silently praying she says spaghetti.

Dana is a slut for spaghetti.

"Spaghetti." Says Chara nonchalantly. Praise Jesus, Amen. Bless Chara. You smile and go to noodle aisle. Where two skeletons and a human child were. "Good afternoon," Dana said politely. They looked shocked, Dana was beginning to think that she made a mistake.

The taller skeleton began to speak, "I AM SORRY HUMANS, MOST HUMANS ARE NOT NICE." She let out a breath she didn't realize she was holding. "No, it's fine. It's nice to meet you all." Dana smiles. "YOU TOO HUMANS! I AM THE GREAT PAPYRUS, THIS IS MY BEST FRIEND FRISK, AND MY LAZY BROTHER SANS" Papyrus says enthusiastically.

" sup," Sans says. "Well, I'm Dana and this is my daughter, Chara." As she finishes speaking, she notices that the lights in Sans' eye sockets disappear and that Frisk visibly shudders. "WE SHOULD EXCHANGE NUMBERS!" Papyrus cheers not noticing Sans' and Frisk's distress.

Dana is making dinner when her phone starts buzzing.

Dana smiles and continues to stir the spaghetti.


Chara reaches under her bed and pulls out a diary. She takes off her necklace and inserts the key inside the lock. Chara takes a pen out of a case and begins to write:

Interesting day…

I met some skeletons and a potential friend. Mom might not let me have them as friends. She says that they might find out what she did.. I don't know what she did myself but, she said it was really really bad. I hope she lets me keep these friends because they're different.

Chara locks back her diary and slides it under her bed.
