Dice shivered as she walked beside Sans, who covered his face from his nose (nose bridge?) down with his scarf.
"That's a cool scarf, did you make it?"
"...it was my brother's…"
She let the conversation drop, but soon Sans stopped in his tracks, his eyes bright. The two children could practically see a lightbulb go off as he realized-
"You're a medium?"
"Um...I sorta thought we got that covered."
Sans grabbed Dice's hand. In a moment, the world seemed to spin, going completely white once, then completely black, then snowing. Dice collapsed to her knees as she struggled not to puke...not that she actually had much in her stomach. She was sitting just beyond the front steps to a large house decorated in colorful lights.
She glanced up at Sans, who was saying sorry, but she couldn't hear him over the sound of her heart beating. Despite not having the muscle to do so, he picked her up in his arms and carried her to the front door of the house.
Haha! See what I did there? No? Okay, I'm just gonna shut up now.
Setting Dice on the couch, Sans brushed her hair out of her face and knelt beside her. He cursed himself. He should've known she wouldn't be able to handle it as well as...never mind.
Great going Sans!
"Shut up!" He yells at nowhere in particular while staring at the roof. I swear, he's got a few screws loose. "Do not!"
Whatever you say, Sans. He put his hand to her forehead as if taking her temperature- wait, would that even work with a skeleton? I mean, he is all bone. Dice's eyes drooped low, whether because of Sans or the restless day she's had, who knows?
"Can I just...sleep here for a while?"
She couldn't hear Sans' response as her brain seemed to go fuzzy and she fell deep into sleep. Sans felt for her pulse, holding his breath until he found it.
He pulled a large blanket off the back of the couch and laid it over the child as Abi reappeared. She always hated it when Sans teleported with the human...the other one.
Abi hovered over her companion for a moment, making sure Sans didn't harm her. The ghost smiled down at her friend before fading to grey. She's not going to return for a little while...
I'm real sorry everyone. Not only have I written a short chapter, but it's also late!
