"I'm disappointed in you, you know."

You didn't even have a chance to say anything to Asriel as you entered his little 'domain'. You had heard his tiresome speech twice before. It was rather nauseating to think about, though you weren't sure why. It was only a reset. Your second one, no less. It wasn't anything new..

You derail yourself from your train of thought to hear him continue his rant.

"You went through the entirety of the Underground, slaughtering everyone. And then you got stopped by that smiley trashbag of a skeleton! I think that is reason enough to be mad at you!"

"First off, you were quaking at your roots when you saw me before, mr. Prissy Petals." You comment snidely. You felt oddly unappeased by the name calling, though you to ignore the oddity. "Secondly, have you even tried to fight that psychopath? You may think, my dear Azzy, that his bones are as brittle as talc, and they are. But you can't land a single hit on him, he's practically a cheetah."

"Possibly, but cheetahs are stronger and better than the salad someone threw out a week again."

"Alright, I get it. You think of that comedian as trash. Can we please change the subject?" You try to avoid your usual vulgarities in fear of having another censorship moment. You didn't need Flowey on you back about it..

Wait, did you just-

"Say. Are you feeling alright?"

"Other than the fact that I may've broken a bone or two on the way down here and the fact that I got defeated by a skeleton wearing slippers? Yes, perfectly 'alright'. Why do you ask?"

"Well.. Umm.. You seem.. Off."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Well... You're... you look..."

"Spit it out before I get bored. Gee, wonder what game I should play... Oh, I know!" You pluck one of the nearby flowers from the ground and pull a petal off.
"He loves me..." Another petal is ripped from the flower. "He loves me not.." You always got a twisted sense of hilarity when you reminding Asriel about his... current state.

Oddly, you weren't feeling it right now

"N-no! N-no need t-to do that! Y-you just.. look different."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Well, first off, have you seen your sweater?"

While you didn't like letting him think he had the ability to control you, you were rather curious as what was wrong with your sweater.

And you saw the moment you looked down.

Instead of your usual green-&-yellow sweater, you found yourself wearing a blue-&-purple one. It felt... oddly familiar. You can't help but shudder when you remember where you had seen it before. You didn't want to think about it.. It was something behind you.

You shudder again when you realize that you had to go through that story again..

"Along with that," Azzy interrupts, "You look nothing like yourself!"

"What exactly does that mean?"

"Again, have you seen yourself..? Hold on a second."

With that, he buries himself into the ground to do.. Whatever he did. All you knew was that it was a faster way to travel for him. How that was so was beyond you..

Your thought train was quickly interrupted (Yet again, may you add) by the sound of footsteps.

It sounded as though they were coming to you.

And you knew exactly who owned the feet to make the sound. You knew she'd come eventually.

Soon enough... she was directly in front of you.

"Oh dear! I did not expect anyone else to be here... Greetings, my child. I am Toriel, caretaker of the ruins."
