Notes: Sans still is still suspicious
Ebott Ville, Grillby's surface restaurant, 1 year 7 months after the release of monsters and magic back in the world.
"Let me show you"
I stretch my hand again… I focus my thought process to the air above my hand and impose my intentions while I chant the spell in my mind.
A black screen like figure is summoned from thin air. It drains at my sanity reserve greatly but the result is rewarding.
White and black static fills the newly summoned window, there is a lot of things in my mind but I don't let them manifest on it. Thing that proved to be very difficult when I finally, finally Made the spell work. To Maxwell's amusement.
Besides my thoughts wouldn't make a pretty… picture…
Hehe. That one is horrible.
"so, cool trick and all but, what's that supposed to—" I see Willow making the universal sign of silence and thus the skeleton keeps to himself.
Hummm… I wonder if I…
How much delay would there be between my thought process, the spell and….
There is no better time than the now to find out!
I concentrate in one question. Combining Infinite Knowledge and this spell… so many possibilities…
I just have to make this work.
"Psst skeleton keep it quiet, once he's like that, my brother is dead to this world so don't talk to him until he's done." I whisper to the previously silenced monster.
"is this a normal thing to him or…?"
"he's like this all the time, he gets an idea and bam! You lost him." I say in my normal tone. Wilson closed his eyes while I was speaking so there is really no problem.
Something flashes through the skeleton face…. And it's gone as fast as it came.
"So… Your brother is… err… hyperactive?" wow, I suck at small talk.
Uuuuu nice reaction! Single glowing blue eye sure is creepy but I prefer the 'no eye lights' face better.
That one is creepier.
Wendy would love to see it. She has a thing for scary things.
"wa— my broth— oh! papyrus? yeah he's a pretty cool guy…" He tries to end the sentence as nonchalantly as he could after slipping.
"Yes, Papyrus who else would I be referring to?"
Heheheh…. He wasn't thinking about Papyrus at first I know!
"…"
Upsss.
"…"
Oh shit. Me and my big fucking mou—
"Eureka!"
I know that my brother will always save me!
Barely, Sans is still trying to pierce my soul with his creepy face, and that hollow smile… how can anyone stand that?
Someone who is always smiling.
And yet it doesn't mean anything to him.
An empty smile.
Jesus….
"Alright! I can do this, who are we going to monitor first!?"
"monitor?"
"Monitor?" We say in unison.
That's new.
And Wilson's face shows it, he's excited, a new thing that he discovered would bring joy to him more than very few things in this world.
"Yes, yes, I can "ask" to see things as they are happening right now!"
"And that means?"
"Tell me someone's name!"
It looks like he has forgotten about we saw in the news for now. And I'm nobody to make him remember those things.
"Sir Grilliam!" So I'll take advantage of the situation!
Wilson send a thumbs up towards me and the floating thingy closes and opens (like a maw with pointy teeth) showing the fire man.
I see him from behind and hoooooly shiiiiit his buttocks make this worth it!
That's indecent but my mind is free of all evidences!
I keep on watching those broad shoulders and strong arms, he's doing something but… Bah! I can ask my brother later.
She knows something.
What do THEY know.
These brothers… they know something that they shouldn't. That knowing smile… ' "Yes, Papyrus who else would I be referring to?" ' she said… but the underlying question was.
"You have just one brother, right?" And that face she was making is proof of that.
At what degree this man's powers… no no, wrong question.
Can he know something that does not exist in the first place?
I feel like the information I'm getting from them is all over the place. First thing we know about Wilson is that he somehow can use black magic, which to be sincere, was not new to me, as The Judge I have unlimited access to the Royal Archives, the scrolls described it as to be fueled with ones darkest feelings.
Hatred, sorrow and despair.
To name a few.
Are any of these the ones he uses, or is it something else. There was no record of the title "King of Shadows" or "Shadow Realm" or Kingdom of Shadows? Of Darkness. I got to ask.
Also. He lied to MK.
Frisk never met Luzzy and Biscuit and thus, it was impossible for him to know this from the kid nor MK talked about any of them I can even bet that the armless kid had not yet met them. Was that his Infinite Knowledge power in use?
Maybe?
I was there watching Frisk that's why I'm sure he didn't met the other two. The flame and rabbit kids were locked home when Frisk fell into the Underground, as all the other children were in normal school day. MK adopted parents don't let him go out because of this but the child decided that there was no harm in a few hours of his absence.
He almost fell from the bridge and almost into the abyss if not were for Frisk's quick reflexes. Not that his life was in any danger, I would have grabbed his soul but decided against this once I saw Undyne watching the scene. And the rest is history.
He is part of one of the well known human reigns in modern history... Which was complete a surprise, really.
Why would he want to hide something as big as this? Does Frisk know? What about his "kingdom"?
"Eureka!" My thoughts are interrupted by the not so subtle shout.
He took his sweet time…
"Alright! I can do this, who are we going to monitor first!?"
"monitor?"
"Monitor?"
Willow looks surprised so this is new to her, too. Her brother's full attitude changed from the dread he felt when he was outed to all the world and now it's like a switch has been flipped.
"Yes, yes, I can "ask" to see things as they are happening right now!"
"And that means?"
"Tell me someone's name!"
"Sir Grilliam!" Poor guy I'll pray for my dear friend's soul.
He has a fangirl now. As Alphys would put it.
Magic activated and with a renewed purpose Wilson flickers his hand and someone is shown in the "window"
It's Grillby.
He's taking orders to the Canine Squad. The dog pack is a loyal lot, as loyal as an actual dog, they will always prefer Grillby's food over anything they have to offer in the police station cafeteria. But it is really truth that the image I'm seeing is the real Grillby and not some kind of hallucination?
Gotta find out.
I fish for my cellphone in one of my sweaters pockets and hit the call button.
The monster in the window stops at the vibrating in his pant pocket.
"heya grills"
"… … … … Don't call me that Sans. You're literally one room away why are you calling?"
"Magnificent" I hear the male whispering under his breath.
"wow, for someone so hot you sure are cold with me hehehe."
He doesn't look amused "can ya help me a big time? Lift your right hand and wave to your left" That would do it.
"… … … … Is this a prank?"
"you can take it however you like… hot stuff hehehe"
"… … … … Goodbye Sans."
*Click!*
Having heard the two sides of the conversation and seeing Grillby hanging his phone almost at the same time the line went dead in our side is a great proof.
But it's not enough.
"ok, i believe ya"
Yeah right.
"Just give it some time Sans, I assure you that you'll come to REALLY believe in what I'm saying"
"but i just said i believe ya man, chillax…"
It's not an everyday thing that people don't believe my façade, even less people that I've just met.
"Yeah shorty! My brother hasn't attacked you or your friends yet so no need to worry!"
"yet?"
"Willow… please."
Ugh…?
"Huh? What?" She looks at the shadow king without a clue on what was that she said wrong…. Does she?
"Excuse my sister, Sans, she's not this rude all the time."
"Hey!"
Trusting them will take a lot of time.
"Asgore, you know what this means?" I can't believe our luck, it's been just one year and a half and we are getting into trouble with a human kingdom already!
Said king stands up "I'll go to the embassy, we need to work on an official apology to the United Kingdom" He rubs his beard as he does when he is stressed.
And who wouldn't? This is serious.
"Yes, that's something sound to do." I agree for once, we need to deescalate any agitation this might cause.
"We need to talk to Wilson too" My ex-husband says.
"The two of us haven't finished this conversation Asgore, you better not forget about this. I need answers." I try not to raise my voice again while marking my point.
"Yes, dear"
