Chara found themselves being bored. Maybe this new human that can see and hear them can relieve them of their boredom. The only issue is that the new human is a baby. Can Chara help the baby survive the Underground? How many years will the baby lose to the ability known as Reset? Why am I asking so many questions?

4. Chapter 4

Napstablook

Changes from original: due to befriending Chara, he is more confident than his classic self.

Appearance: Napstablook now wears his Dapperblook hat at all times after Chara told him he looks good in it. His body is normally a plain white, but the color does change with his emotions. (Blue when sad, yellow when happy, red if he ever gets angry,etc.)

Backstory: Same as Classic with the exception of meeting and befriending Chara before Frisk/Riley fell.

Chara groaned in pain as they slammed their head into the wall again. they felt the black stuff heal them. "Oh, hey," said a voice that Chara recognized.

"Hey, Blooky," said Chara as they fell backward, grunting as their back hit the hard floor.

"Am I bothering you while you recover?" asked Napstablook. "I'm sorry. I'll leave now."

"You don't have to go if you don't want to," said Chara as they rolled over to their stomach.

"So I saw the queen with a new kid," said Napstablook. "They said your name. Have you met them?" Chara frowned as they thought about Riley. Seeing Chara's hair darken, the ghost-like monster added, "I've made you upset. I'm sorry", as his body turned blue.

"It's fine," said Chara after they bit off one of their fingers. Feeling the black stuff calm down, they added, "I have." Chara sighed before telling their friend about what had happened, avoiding the topics of resets. They had to pause a few times to calm the black stuff.

"Oh," said Napstablook. "I don't think you're a curse."

"Don't lie," said Chara as they pulled their knees to their chest. "You know what I've done. I only hurt those around me. I've-"

"You became my friend," said Napstablook. "I would come to the Ruins to be alone and feel like garbage, and then I met you."

"It's kinda hard to hurt a ghost," muttered Chara. "You're kinda incorporeal."

"Despite me being me and messing things up, you still call me a friend," said the ghost with a rare smile.

"So, how are things with your cousin?" asked Chara as they wanted to change the subject. Napstablook turned yellow with joy as he talked about his cousin's latest show.
