Walking through a new AU was usually fun and exciting. Seeing what was new and different, What was changed or added, but this was not what was to be expected.
Ink looked around confused and slightly horrified. He was so happy to see a new AU appear, that he just jumped right in, to say hi and hopefully make a new friend.
But nobody was there.
Well, nobody real, that is.
There were cardboard cutouts and wooden stands of everyone, scattered throughout the lands. Forever frozen in captioned moments of the gameplay.
When Ink first appeared in this world he landed in the ruins. At the beginning.
Meeting flowey.
Meeting toriel.
Meeting sans.
Meeting papyrus.
All of it was the same. Just lifeless cutouts unmoving, and unchanging.
