Wear heelies to escape your feelies.
I am amazed with how much feedback I got last chapter. It really boosted my mood and helped me get through the day. Sincerely, thank you all!
"What? Me?" Frisk pointed at herself.
"Yes, you." Sans replied in an amused tone.
Frisk swallowed, eyes wide.
That… explains…
"How do you know?" She asked quietly.
"I wasn't sure at first, as if the ears and tail aren't obvious. But the way you move sometimes, your increased sense. Hell, even the way your eyes glow." Sans playfully pointed at her eyes, which made her shrink back instinctively.
"…" Frisk was too stunned for words.
This is what I've been looking for… I wish you told me sooner, you lazy bag of bones.
Sans turned back to the cliff, staring out.
"I'm guessing you never expected for this kinda thing to happen… kinda like me, I guess."
Frisk's ear twitched.
"What about you? You don't have-"
"You don't have to have fur to be a Moon-Blood, Puppo. Remember, I said that it could affect one's soul, appearance, or just plain power. My side effects are more along the soul side, but I've still got some physical traits." Sans poked his own mouth, reminding her of the skeleton's more Canine teeth.
Frisk's mind was slowly putting everything together.
"Like… before, with Undyne. You started to growl."
Sans looked over at her, his eyes dimming for a split second.
"Yeah, true. I do it a lot." He yawned, stretching his arms.
"So…" Frisk swallowed. "Is there… a way to reverse this effect?"
Sans seemed surprised by this.
"I… I've got no clue about that, Snap Pea. But I've gotta ask, why? What's so bad about it?"
Frisk looked down.
"I'm scared… for… when I go back to the surface, you know? How will people see me then?"
Sans inhaled slowly.
"Look, Puppo. Having wolf in you is probably one of the most amazing things that could ever happen."
Sans leaned in closer, the lights in his eye sockets sparkling.
"When you think of a wolf, what do you see?"
Frisk thought for a moment, then shrugged.
"I dunno, a… wolf, I guess."
"Well, think about what a wolf is, and what you want to be. "
"…" Frisk stared at him blankly.
"What? Think about it."
"I'm sorry, I'm not… a wolfeboo, like you." Frisk muttered.
Sans clutched his chest.
"You hurt my feelings."
"Well, its true." She smirked.
"Okay, I like wolves, okay? Still doesn't mean you have to give me a ruff time."
"I hate you." Frisk turned her back to him.
"If ya' hated me you would've dunked me in the river like Undyne. Not that you had the opportunity, I may like to sleep literally everywhere but I'm not gonna be sleeping on a river. I don't like to be rushed."
Frisk gave her tail an annoying flick, but forgot Sans was behind her and ended up smacking him in the face.
"Blllrfff, what the hell, puppo? Ya' got fur in my mouth."
Frisk started laughing.
"Guess this thing is useful."
She turned back towards him.
Cinnamon brown fur was sticking out of his mouth, and he didn't bother to wipe it off.
She pointed at it, and he stared at her dumbly before giving his face a lazy wipe.
"… guess you could say-"
"No. Stop."
Frisk turned back towards the cliff, wrapping her arms around her sides.
It was still pretty chilly, and the snow had gotten in her shoes, making her feet cold as hell.
She could feel Sans's eye sockets boring into the side of her head. She glanced off to the side, waiting for him to say something.
His grin had faded, and he seemed almost confused about something. Conflicted.
The second she noticed, it was gone.
"You seem kinda cold, Snap Pea. Do you wanna head back?"
Frisk shook her head.
"No! I don't want to cut your trip short Because you have illegal baggage following you."
Sans snorted at this.
"I'm fine, I sorta want to go back myself. Believe it or not, slippers are not meant for snow. My feet are freezing off here."
Frisk looked down at his large, pink, fluffy slippers. She was slightly confused by his feeling of cold, but she felt it had been brought up before.
She just wasn't in a very remembering mood at the moment. Probably because she didn't want to remember… other details.
"No, I don't think that was smart." She finally said.
Sans got up, hitting the snow off his shorts.
"Welp, I'm Headin home. If you wanna stay here and freeze, and probably snap your neck like a Ritz cracker, that's fine too." He grinned.
Frisk rolled her eyes and stood up as well, feeling her body shiver slightly.
"Knowing you, you probably dip your crackers in ketchup."
"It's good."
"…" she said no more.
Going down the hill was much more precarious that going up the hill, and multiple times Frisk grabbed on to whatever was closest for dear life as she nearly tumbled down. She didn't know if her legs were shaking from the cold or from almost falling a hundred times by the time they were done.
As soon as they got back to the skeletons house, Frisk collapsed in her blanket nest and fell asleep.
She dreamed of icy water.
…
"Sans! Save the cereal for the Human!"
"Bro, I never get up first. Her loss."
"The human had a very tiring day yesterday! Stop being so mean!"
"I'm not being mean."
"You're being unfair!"
"Life is unfair, bro."
"That doesn't mean you should be!"
Frisk groaned, rubbing her ears. They were hot to the touch
"What's unfair is that you guys woke me up." Frisk muttered to herself, pulling the blanket over her head.
"Someone's awake, which means it's fair and square." Sans said from in the kitchen.
"Sans, you are not acting like a good host or gentleman! It should be ladies first!" Papyrus yelled.
Wow, first time that's been brought up down here.
Frisk found her tail bristling.
She didn't like the term "lady" for some reason.
"Okay, then by all means, go ahead bro." Sans chuckled.
Frisk snorted. Burn.
"Sans, I'm not the girl! She is!" If Frisk's head was above the blanket, she was sure he'd be pointing at her.
You missed the point bub.
"Okay."
She heard the couch squeak and moan, which meant someone sat on it.
Frisk looked up, pushing the blanket away.
Sans was sitting with the last bowl of cereal and a wide grin.
"You're a jerk, you know." Frisk yawned.
Sans started eating, his eyes fixed on her in mocking."Thanks, I don't have to try."
Frisk shook her head.
"I don't really care, I just want coffee."
"Well, go get some."
"Uuuuuggghhhh."
Frisk forced her body to get up, despite its pleas to lay back down.
Her head was aching ever so slightly, and her torso more-so. Try saying that five times fast.
Why the hell didn't it hurt yesterday?
Frisk leaned her forehead on the microwave as the water heated up, eyes closed.
Papyrus was doing dishes rather… excitedly.
"Human! We are going to the store today and Sans said you're coming along!"
"I am?" Frisk asked.
"Yes! You didn't know?"
"No. I did not. I never gave my consent to this expedition." Frisk scowled, shifting her gaze to the living room.
"Consent was not asked for nor needed, Snap Pea." Sans called from the other room.
"I hope that's not the case for some other…activities."
"Don't worry, no one is going to try to reproduce with you down here. It don't work like that."
"Sans! Inappropriate!" Papyrus scolded.
Frisk returned with her mug, the instant coffee mix dotting the side.
"Wait, so humans can't make babies with monster?" Frisk asked. "From the books I read-"
"Actually, some can. That's how us skeletons came along. But I doubt any monsters want to try that kind of thing with a human, because we've been separated for so long I don't think any believe there is any compatibility." Sans cut her off.
Frisk realized she may have put too much coffee mix in her cup.
Oh well. Caffeine.
"That's a relief." She said sarcastically.
"Well, until Frisk gets Frisky."
"… that's disgusting. No. I don't even know how that would work with… most of Monster kind."
Frisk shuddered.
"I think the worst to try to reproduce with would be Grillby. That'd hurt." Sans snickered.
"… yes, yes it would."
"You know he has a daughter?"
"No. That's weird."
"Yup. Guess he must be some real hot stuff, ehh?"
Frisk closed her eyes.
"Sans, stooop, I'm getting images in my head that don't need to be there. Please, mercy."
Sans let out a little laugh.
"Don't worry, I'm sure he's just as repulsed by you as you are by him. The same as just about rest of monster kind."
"…Thanks, you're very supportive." Frisk replied sarcastically.
"You're welcome."
Frisk turned over, and winced as her stomach started to hurt again.
She must have laid on it wrong.
Frisk put the coffee mug down and lifted the side of the sweater slightly to glance underneath.
There was hardly anything skin colored left, all consumed by black and blue and green.
She heard Sans shift on the couch, and dropped the fabric.
"That don't look too good there, puppo."
Frisk tensed.
"It's just a bruise."
"I don't know much about bruises. But I didn't know you had gotten hurt elsewhere."
"It didn't hurt yesterday, I think I just laid on it wrong last night. There's a lot of bruising, but it's not that bad."
Sans blinked.
"Anything broken?"
"No."
"Okay."
Sans turned back to his cereal, and she turned back to her coffee.
There was a loud shout of glee from the kitchen.
"YES, THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL! We will be there as soon as I can get Sans and th-uh, just get Sans up!"
There was a click followed by excited footsteps.
"Sans! Human! We need to go! Get ready!"
"Huh?" Sans didn't show any intent of moving.
"I didn't say I would go." Frisk added.
The slight downing of Papyrus's expression made her change her mind.
"Come on, human! Please! I have something very special planned!"
"… what?" Frisk was getting bad vibes.
"You'll see!"
Papyrus dashed out of the room, looking happier than a kid on Halloween.
"I don't think you've got a choice, Snap Pea." Sans snickered.
Frisk groaned and forced herself up, going up the stairs to the bathroom.
She felt like today was going to be a long day.
Apparently there was a super market hidden between Snowdin and the river.
They had to go along the same path Undyne had taken her in, and keep going till the mouth of a large cave was visible.
This was the entrance to waterfall.
They did not got here, however. They cut up and went across the river (using a rather dangerous looking bridge.) and kept going along a path till a large, yellow building was in sight.
For being so hidden, there were more monsters than Frisk had ever seen before.
She found herself unconsciously inching towards Sans.
"Hey, relax. As long as you don't tell no one you're human, or get seen by a royal guard member, You're fine."
"…royal guard?" Frisk echoed.
"Yeah. If you see anyone in armor, get away. You don't want to run in to one of them." His expression darkened for a moment.
Frisk swallowed hard, anxiety churning in her belly.
Sans lightened up.
"Hey, They never come here. You'll be fine. Come on, we'll lose Pap if we don't hurry it up."
Frisk nodded and followed the skeleton to the door.
They were extremely loud sliding doors, squealing as they slid open. It caused Frisk a minor amount of ear discomfort, and judging by Sans's flinch, he felt the same way.
Papyrus immediately started scanning the store as soon as they went in.
The orange tiles were shiny, but littered with footprints and melted snow. Signs hung above the different isles, displaying what those isles contained in a weird font. The carts looked exactly like what you would find at a local Wal-Mart, except with thick coverings on the handles and larger size. Many of them had claw marks etched deep into the thick blue covering.
Papyrus seemed to see what he was looking for, and he grabbed the closest cart and ran as fast as he could, his boots squeaking on the floor.
Sans shot her an amused glance and followed his hyperactive brother.
"Wonder what's got him all sugared up?"
"Isn't he always excited?" Frisk asked.
"True."
Papyrus had turned into an isle, and she heard a loud "HI!"
"Oh boy." She muttered, turning around into the isle.
A quick sight of eerily familiar blue skin made her freeze.
Sans stopped beside her.
"Uh oh."
Papyrus was eagerly talking to Undyne, who was currently wearing a gray tank-top with a sun symbol on it similar to the one on her other shirt, and a pair of ripped jeans.
Something flashed in Frisk's mind from the night before.
Sun-blood… seems like Sans is right.
Papyrus turned towards her.
"Oh, Undyne! Look who I brought along!"
Undyne's gaze shifted to her, and she looked just as displeased to see Frisk as Frisk was to see her.
Frisk whined and moved behind Sans. She could hear him let out an annoyed groan.
"…" Undyne's eye was twitching.
Frisk's muscles were as tense as they could get, and the tension in the air was crushing.
Papyrus looked between the two of them.
"Why don't you two put the past behind you and be friends! I believe you can do it!"
Undyne snarled, making Frisk cower and her tail to tuck between her legs.
"I. Will never. Be friends. With that THING. Just cause I won't kill it doesn't mean I like it. Now…"
Undyne turned to Papyrus.
"We gonna get this party started!? I'm starvin' and the sooner we get this done the faster I can inhale food."
Papyrus put his hands together excitedly.
"Yes, of course! I'm sure this shopping trip will bring us all closer."
Frisk glared at the fish.
I doubt it, I think it will just get me killed.
Sans stepped away from her.
Frisk realized her cover was gone and shot him an angry look.
"Hey, I've got things to do, soooo… seeya."
"Saaaans, please don't go…" Frisk whispered.
"Look, she ain't gonna hurt ya… mortally. Don't sit there and cower all the time, remember, you've got the soul of a wolf. Use it." With that, he shrugged and left.
Now the only thing between her and angry fish was Papyrus.
That was most certainly worrying.
Frisk could feel her soul being burned by Undyne's gaze.
Papyrus grabbed the cart excitedly and pushed it towards her.
"Human, you go around and find what you believe we need, in terms of your tastes! Undyne will be going with you!" Papyrus said.
Undyne's fins fanned out. "What?! I never said I-"
"Oh. I'm sorry human, my mistake. I thought she would be up to the challenge…"
The sudden change in Undyne's temperament snapped the air like a thunderbolt.
"Huh?! Me?! Not up to a challenge?! NEVER! Fufufufufu… You, punk! You, me, we're gonna be BESTIES! After I'm done, NOTHING WILL GET BETWEEN US! THEN I'LL SHOW PAPYRUS HOW FREAKIN WRONG HE WAS!"
Undyne leaped forward and roughly threw her arm around Frisk's shoulders, leaving the poor girl to lean as far away as possible while simultaneously on the brink of a heart attack.
Papyrus grinned with glee.
"That's the spirit! I'll leave you two to it!" Papyrus began to run away, presumably to wherever Sans was.
Frisk was left to let out a dry sob as Papyrus disappeared from view.
Her last breaths drew near.
Frisk could feel the arm Undyne had around her arm tighten around her neck.
Frisk let out a nervous gasp, her green eyes shifting slowly to the fish beside her.
The first thing she saw were yellow fangs bared in her face.
"You. I can't believe I'm doing this. You're lucky I don't destroy you right here and now. Don't let it get to your head, punk, cause I could rip your little head off faster than you can piss yourself. You're just lucky that stupid trash skeleton and Papyrus like you for some reason."
Frisk didn't say anything.
Undyne glared at her, eye to eye, before letting her go.
"You are one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen. Seriously, maybe that's why they like you, they pity you. Guess that fire you had during our fight goes out pretty fast, eh?"
Frisk's ear twitched at that.
Undyne grabbed the cart from her.
"Now, I've gotta show that bone-head who's boss, and what best way to become besties than SHOPPING!"
Frisk turned and began slowly walking away.
Maybe if I'm quiet she won't notice and I won't have to sit here and be tormented by-
Undyne grabbed her by the shoulders, locking her in place.
"Where do you think you're going, BESTIE?! Besties don't walk out on each other!"
If she wasn't in the middle of a store receiving very odd looks from passerby, she would probably break down crying.
"I have an idea to make sure you don't get lost!" Undyne's voice was hot on her ear-fur.
Suddenly, she was tossed up into the air, the light a blur in the moments she hung there before plummeting into the cart.
She let out a small squeak as the metal dug into her back.
She didn't move, trembling.
What the hell!? She just threw me into the fucking cart!
"Time to show these sissies how shopping is really done!"
Undyne grabbed the handles of the cart, looking like she had to go fast.
"No no no no no no no please no no no n-OH"
Frisk grabbed the edges of the cart for dear life as Undyne started sprinting with all of her might, and soon the shelves melted together in a swirl of speed.
They zoomed past an old lady monster, nearly knocking the poor thing over.
Frisk would say sorry if she weren't extremely scared for her own well-being.
Undyne made a sharp turn, the wheels squeaking on the floor.
"CARTS AREN'T MADE FOR THIS KIND OF MOVEMENT!" Frisk yelled.
"THAT'S THE BEST PART!" Undyne answered back, twice as loud.
Papyrus, you left me with a psychopath!
They came to an abrupt stop in front of cereal.
Monsters had their own brands of cereal, very similar to some of the name humans brands. She personally liked Pillows, a cereal almost identical to the Life brand she used to eat on the surface.
And for some reason they had Corn Pops, with the same exact packaging and logo. How they received or knew about it, she didn't know.
Frisk tried to catch her breath and stop her shaking legs.
Undyne jumped in front of the cereal.
"ALRIGHT! Pretend these boxes of cereal are traitors, lined up for execution! They betrayed and hurt your kingdom, they killed your family! They took the lives of innocent monsters! How are you gonna put them in the cart?!"
Frisk blinked blankly at the over-excited fish.
"Ummm…" Frisk grabbed the nearest box of Pillows and placed it in the cart like any other normal, sane person would.
"NO! NOT LIKE THAT! LIKE THIS!"
Undyne grabbed a random box and slammed it it as hard as she could, making Frisk jump and her tail poof.
The box was mauled by the impact.
Frisk stared at the sad piece of cardboard.
A nearby monster ushered her kids towards her as she passed.
Undyne bent her knees and pointed at the box.
"THAT'S. How it's done!" Undyne gloated.
"You broke the box. The stuff inside is probably powder." Frisk deadpanned, grabbing another box of Pillows and placing it neatly beside the first.
"Whatever. It's still in the bag. NEXT!"
Undyne sped them to the meat section in the same manner.
"THIS. IS. MEAT."
Frisk blinked.
"Yes. Yes it is."
"IT'S THE MEAT OF YOUR WORST LIFE ENEMY!"
"You?" Frisk coughed. Luckily, the crazy monster didn't hear her.
"WHAT YOU GONNA DO TO IT!?"
"…"
"YOU'RE GONNA BEAT THE MEAT!" Undyne grabbed the closest steak and began punching it.
Frisk watched with a poker face.
How is she still allowed here?
Undyne threw the mutilated steak in the cart and grabbed another one.
"You do it!"
"…no…"
"JUST DO IT OR I'LL WRING YOUR NECK!"
Frisk yelped and tapped the meat.
"HARDER! FEEL THE HATRED AND LET IT COME OUT OF YOUR FIST!"
Frisk tried again.
"TREAT IT LIKE YOU WOULD SAN'S PUNS!"
Frisk aggressively punched the steak and sent it flying across the aisle.
Undyne watched it.
"Whoops!"
She started to leave, and Frisk looked over her shoulder.
"Wait, you're going to leave it there?"
"LEAVE WHAT, I WAS NEVER THERE!"
Frisk watched as the depressing steak disappeared from view.
Undyne took her around the store in a spastic manner, being aggressive to any and all items put in the cart. She didn't ask Frisk if she wanted to go anywhere, so she had to make do with what they went past.
Frisk actually found herself joining in the abuse.
She felt pent up rage built up from the first ten seconds she had known Sans come free. All. Those. Puns!
Undyne took them to the abandoned hardware section for some random reason and started playing with the hammers. It was rather dark in this corner of the store, and there was no one around. The dust coating the shelves indicated this wasn't a one time occurrence.
Suddenly, there was a crackling of a staticky PA system.
"Notice to customers, please treat our store and it's contents with respect. Please do not run or misuse the carts. We have received several complaints about a blue fish and a… humanoid monster? Any further complaint will result in being kicked from the store. Thank you."
The system crackled again, signaling its ending.
Undyne and Frisk exchanged glances.
"… Uh oh."
"Uh oh? That's all you have to say?" Frisk replied bitterly.
The annoyed look on Undyne's face made Frisk recoil slightly.
"Well, guess this is done. What's next, Sleepovers? Friendship bracelets? Bead necklaces? Huh?" Her tone was mocking.
Frisk's ears flattened at her tone.
"I never asked to do this with you. So I don't think any of that would be very enjoyable either."
"Oh, screw it! This isn't working, and it ain't ever gonna work! Some people just don't get along." Undyne huffed.
Frisk threw her hands out, getting out of the cart.
"Finally, someone gets it!"
"Saaame… but wait… if we can't be friends… and we're alone over here…"
Frisk took a step back at the increasing danger on Undyne's face.
"That means I can beat the hell out of you and no one will know!"
Frisk took a few more frantic steps back, her feet sliding on the floor.
Undyne took a single step towards her, lip curled.
"You really are a pathetic coward. Do you know how much I hate that?! Oh, and your little angel act, don't get me started! Not hurting anyone, helping everyone, blah blah blah. The reason You're neither dead nor guilty? You put yourself first. You run. Heh, just like that damn skeleton, huh?"
Frisk's body froze.
Undyne's words were eerily familiar to Flowey's, when he said the same thing.
And it turned her blood to ice.
Maybe it was the vigorous shopping, maybe to coffee. Maybe her own annoyance.
But Frisk forced her ears forwards and snarled.
"I guess we both have dishonorable drives, huh?"
Undyne looked surprised.
"Wow, You're actually growing a pair? That's nice. Makes me feel even more obliged to beat the crap out of you."
Frisk's green eyes glittered dangerously in the shadowy lighting.
"You know what will happen if you do that. So Back. Off!" Frisk's voice was a low growl.
Undyne curled her hands into fists.
"Try me. I could care less! You little punk!"
Undyne jumped forward, arm pulled back.
"You've got the soul of a wolf. Use it."
Frisk bent her legs slightly, gathering as much strength in them as she could and then leaped, pulling back her arm.
The next few moments went by so fast they seemed to all happen at once.
She connected a hit as Undyne's fist connected with her face, and the next moment she was skidding across the floor.
Frisk righted herself as quickly as possible, feeling the horrible sensation of nose pain. She could feel something hot dripping down her face.
It wasn't excruciating, however. She expected much worse.
She had been hit by Undyne at full force before, and she knew that was not full force.
Frisk grabbed her bleeding nose and stared at Undyne thoughtfully.
Frisk wasn't strong at all, and even the added momentum of her leap didn't seem to do much damage… not enough damage, actually
Undyne touched her jaw where Frisk hit, glaring at her.
"You little… punk…" Undyne sounded deep in thought as well.
Frisk's eyes narrowed.
Something's wrong… I hesitated, and she did too. Was it from surprise? She expected me to run, didn't she…
After a few breaths, Undyne slammed the ground with her fist, cracking the tiles.
"Dammit! You could've done a ton better, punk!"
"So could you." Frisk replied with a guarded tone.
"It seems like that sap Papyrus is right after all." Undyne got up.
"Guess we really can't be enemies, huh? You just don't do good with enemies, do you?"
Frisk didn't answer.
"You hate my guts. You actually grew a pair and faced me. I admit, that had to take some real nuts. But even after that, you're still hesitant to hurt me."
Undyne looked away and scratched the back of her head.
"I guess some humans aren't that bad…"
Frisk used the wall to pull herself up, her torso and face aching.
"I guess you aren't the Satan of all monsters…" Frisk said awkwardly.
Undyne burst out laughing.
"Don't count on it, punk, I'd still cream you!"
Just then, a set of loud footsteps approached.
Papyrus and Sans came into the isle.
"Oh, Undyne, Human, there you are! We were loo- HOLY EBOTT, WHAT HAPPENED!"
Papyrus put his hand to his mouth, eyes wide.
Frisk and Undyne stayed silent, Undyne holding her jaw and Frisk holding her bloody nose.
Sans's grin actually faded for once, leaving him looking very un-happy.
When the grin went away, you knew it wasn't a good situation.
"Undyne! Human! Did you two get in a fight?!" Papyrus asked, putting his hands on his hips.
Undyne looked at Frisk expectantly.
Frisk sighed. She was tired. So tired.
"Fine, it comes to my attention that we may have had an uncivil disagreement due to the stark differences in our persons and characteristics that fueled the desire to physically dismember the other person, and we may have irrationally acted on this desire and slightly inflicted harm of minimal degree. This matter has been resolved as of the current questioning."
She felt all three pairs of eyes on her.
Papyrus was looking at her with a dull expression, Sans looked very amused, and Undyne looked disturbed.
"Uh, Puppo, I think you are reading too many books." Sans said.
Frisk put her hands together and inhaled.
"You require me to activate my lungs to take in a certain amount of air more than that is normally required of the respiratory system at this level of activity. You inflict discomfort onto my emotional state by saying that I analyze and process too many books into my person. I disagree with this statement, and passively-aggressively extend to you a request of silence of your person, for the safety of future events."
Sans put his hand to his face and burst out in hysterical laughter, snorting in between breaths.
"Human, what are you talking about?" Papyrus asked.
"I am conversing about the subjects brought to my attention by you and the person beside you who is genetically attached to your being." Frisk couldn't help but laugh now as well.
No one else got the joke.
Sans walked over, one hand over his torso and another holding a basket containing a couple bottles of ketchup.
"Ah-alright Snap Pea, grab whatever in that cart is yours and put it in here." He held up the basket. "Then you're coming with me real quick. Oh, and your nose isn't broken or something, right?"
Sans's amusement faded slightly.
Frisk shook her head.
"No, it's not even that bad, it's just bloody. I do hate how getting hit in the nose feels, though."
Frisk pulled her hand away, and it was covered in blood. Her nose had stopped bleeding, though.
She whipped the blood off with her sleeve, the only available thing at the moment.
I probably look like a wreck now…
Sans's eyes were scanning her face.
"I wouldn't know, I don't exactly have a nose. Or, to put it in verbose terms: I lack the appendage homo sapian posses on their uppermost portion known as a nose."
Frisk let out a few chuckles.
Papyrus threw his arms up. "NYEH, WHY DO YOU GUYS KEEP TALKING LIKE THAT!?"
Undyne looked at them with an indescribable expression.
"Just… leave, both of you."
Frisk grabbed her cereal and cheese puffs from the cart and put them in Sans's basket.
"Alright, lets go. Papyrus is going to check out right now and then go calibrate his puzzles."
Frisk blinked in response and followed the skeleton.
Once they had gotten a safe distance away, Frisk exhaled in relief.
"Oh my god I'm never doing that again. How could you put me through that?"
Sans looked over at her.
"I didn't think it would go that poorly."
"She was punching a random steak repeatedly."
"Welp, that's Undyne."
Sans was leading her to a section of the store Undyne hadn't went too, the clothing section.
Frisk glanced around at the… colorful selection of clothing.
"Umm, why are we here?"
"You need a coat, do you not? Papyrus keeps on raving about how your gonna freeze to death." Sans replied.
Frisk looked away.
"I… coats are expensive, and I already take up enough of your time an-"
"What have I told you about being like that? Stap. I honestly don't care, and coats are pretty cheap down here. We actually have a lot saved up since the puzzles were installed."
"Then why do you have a tab than Undyne's ego?
"I'm too lazy to bring money with me. But I'm not kidding, I got a couple jobs to get enough to pay for all those puzzles in Snowdin for Paps, but we already did all that. So we can deal with a pet human."
"Pet human?"
"Yup. You're like our pet human now."
Frisk played with the hem of her shirt.
"Sans… you know I can't be down here forever, right? I can't stay at your house forever, either… I'm going to have to leave sometime and keep going."
Sans looked straight ahead.
"Yeah, I know that. I just don't want Papyrus to know that. But I'll tell you what, whenever your ready to leave and go onto waterfall, let me know."
Frisk made eye contact with him, and kept it.
"Sans... thanks…" She forced out.
Sans shrugged.
"Eh, no biggie. But if your planning on leavin' you really need a coat. So, pick one."
…
Frisk had- after some confusion between coat shapes- found a rather fluffy purple coat with the softest white fur puffing around the hood and lining the inside. They all had tons of fur, as did a lot of the other clothes. Upon questioning, Sans explained it was all created in a lab, but used a method that made it just like real fur.
She ended up smelling coffee and wandering over to the coffee section for awhile before remembering Sans existed and returned to find him in the same exact spot.
She was happy with her coat, though, and used it as a blanket when they returned home.
She and Sans shared the cheese puffs that night while watching some weird anime about a bald guy who could kill everything with one punch.
She eventually compared the bald guy with Sans and ended up with cheese dust all over her new coat.
Needless to say, Sans wouldn't like what he found in his ketchup bottles next morning.
It really sucks when someone else has the same name as you, but they are better at everything. They are the pretty one and everyone likes them. They are always praised and for a moment I think "are they talking about me?" But then I realize it's not me and it never will be, and it really kinda hurts.
Anyways, enough about me, no one wants to hear about me! Time to go over the plethora of reviews we got! I'm so excited :D
NOTE: information in these sections are now wrong. Outdated. I've changed and developed the lore a lot. Message me if you'd like an explanation!
Kitlith: I find it weird that they have names for these groups of people, even though there's only every been three known at this point. Maybe that's whyvthey were given a label *shrugs*
Other than that, this looks fantastic, and I look forward to seeing more!
I already answered you via PM, (I rarely answer in PM but I just happened to be on so why naught) but I thought I'd 're answer' in case anyone else had the same thoughts.
For Sun-Bloods, there are more than just Undyne. They are usually fire-based monsters or just random monsters with a resistance to the magic. Many of these monsters are unsuitable for the environment and their numbers have been dropping, but they still hold on.
As for Moon-Bloods, Sans used a very specific word. "I know." Which means really, in theory, there could be more, but why there are so few I will cover in a later chapter.
One of the main reasons they have their own category is one: the nature of their reaction is so great and two: the current King, a very important individual, Is a Moon-Blood. Another important individual was the first fallen human, aka Chara. I hope this cleared it up some!
I'm so glad you enjoy this, and I hope I continue to entertain!
Me Myself and I:I appreciated the authors note at the beginning of this chapter.
Relatable.
Hello fellow mammal, I'm glad you enjoyed.
Me Myself and I:I really enjoy it so far as it is written, nothing feels odd and it actually makes a lot of sense, (super important, I get headaches easily XD) and the pacing is just a little slow at some parts but it's really kinda a relief. Like a breather of sorts.
And all if this written on a tablet, that takes a lot of talent.
I admit I didn't think I'd like the story at first, seriously Frisk has a tail and wolf ears, but I was pleasantly surprised to be reading something really different and original. But not so different that "Undertale Logic" can't be applied. :D
Perhaps I'm rambling. Anyways, I like it. Good story, but uh, the rather crude jokes... Well... maybe once or twice. After that it's just creepy.
Not that I didn't have a good laugh! ;D
Bookmarked to eagerly read your next chapter!
Hello again! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Don't worry, I get headaches easy too. Migraines. They suck :/
I think one of the biggest flaws of this is the pacing, I know it's an issue but I have yet to make it better XD I think now that I've gotten the initial Frisk-Sans intro out of the way and the Snowdin arc over (yup, it's officially over guys. Finally.) it should get better. Less filler, more events.
Yeah, Frisky does have a Wolfy tail and ears. I think that's a big turn off for some people simply Because of furries. I'm glad you got past that :D I tried really hard to make it an AU with more of a story to it similar to Undertale, but with added plots and a new lead character (her names Frisk but let's all admit she ain't the same Frisk we know.)
I ramble too (y'all know this by now XD) so no worries m8. Sorry about the crude jokes… I've got a bit of a dirty humor, as you may know… I'll try to tone it down (the really bad consent and reproduction jokes in this chapter don't help, do they? Lol).
I'm so happy you enjoyed and I'm looking forward to seeing you again!
Iluvfanfic: YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I LOVE THISSS THERES LONGER CHAPTERS! (pls dont ship sans x frisk yet tho) How will paps react to the fact humans have bones? Does Frisky frisk frisk have a completely wolfie form? (Hopefully yes) and lastly, I LOVE THIS FIC!
Hello fan :3 I feared that people would take their 'friendship' the wrong way, but worry not, they are not being shipped (yet) the thing is, I wanted to make this story mostly shipping free, but as things went on Sans and Frisk just kept on inching closer and closer even though I said "NOH, DON'T DO DAT!" Lol XD
I will take your suggestion and use it in the near future! It will certainly be… interesting! And we all know Sans is going to make a bone joke, we all see it coming. Tsk tsk, Sans.
Omg I love that name XD Frisky Frisk Frisk. We all shall call her that from now on (or just us, lol) as for a wolf form, I can't exactly answer that (yet, spoilers.) It won't be what your expecting, but remember Sans said " Wolf Soul."
If you just want to see (and probably spoil, but it is a nice treat) what I have in mind you can look at the Howlingtale comic called "Too early" over on my deviant art (Comycatdarkangel).
iluvfanfic:Im probably spamming you by now... hehe, but I wanted to say one more thing, This is one of my fav stories in FFN.
No problem, m8. Hey, I know the feeling ;3
I am very honored to be your favorite Fanfiction, actually very surprised :D hopefully I continue to be!
Looking forward to seeing you again!
threeisaparty:I wonder, will frisky frisk frisk get her period? Oh if she does those cramps will be horrendous. XD.
There it is again XD Frisky Frisk Frisk! I was wondering about playing around with that just for the sake of realism, but I am worried about people getting uncomfortable.
And yes, those cramps will be terrible XD they always are!
Thanks for reviewing, and I look forward to seeing you again!
Whew, I'm not used to going through that many reviews, ever! This now has more reviews than Fire and Ice, my old Naruto Fanfiction (actually, Ht Frisk has a lot of inspiration from Ice, that stories protagonist. Both have the wolf ear tail thing… and have similar social issues, but I think it ends there.)
Let's see if we can get to 50 reviews! Obviously not on this chapter (lol nope) but when we get to 50, I will do a HT Ask for Sans and Frisk! I would probably do it anyways (I'm not the kinda person who says "x reviews or no new chapter!" Or something of the like) but I just don't have the time or motivation right now, and I need to know that the AU has gained a decent following. I was also thinking of holding a Fanart contest on deviantart in the near future, idk.
That. Was a very long end note. I'm not complaining:3 be safe everyone, and remember to stay determined!
From the wolf in the mountains,
Comycat~
