25 COFFEEEEE and boots and- cheese?

It took a few trips from the two waiters, but eventually everyone had all their drinks, and to top everything off, a beautiful arrangement of sweets was slid between them. Frisk chose a fluffy looking cookie with chocolate syrup and marshmallow on it. Biting into the soft dough and sipping her mocha with it was absolute bliss. No one could stop thanking Enyo; she was too awesome.

The moment Halle took her first sip of coffee, she nearly gagged in shock and sat back to stare at the coffee.

Alcina: What? Is it okay? (worried)

Halle: (blinks) What have I been doing with my life when I could have had caramel in it?

After most of the treats were gone, and everyone was tired of sitting on their butts, they packed up the rest of the treats and scattered them into their own bags.

Enyo made a note to get Frisk a bag, and before Frisk could argue that, they all picked up and walked off the coffee spot strip.

Arie and Alcina split to look at tail wraps, and the others went to look at the shoes. They'd meet up again in the shoes. It would take that long.

Enyo: Haaaalle

Halle: Uh… what?

Enyo looked over he shoulders at Halle: You want some shooooes?

Halle: You really don't have to!

Enyo: Too late, you're getting shoes.

Halle: … okay?

Now humans already had enough variation of shoes because of the difference between children and men and women. BUT MONSTERS. There were so many different species with different kinds of feet it was insane.

Luckily, there seemed to be a system to help counter this: Many of the shoes were adjustable to age. There were latches and grooves along the sides of shoes that made them longer or shorter, and would lock in place if you flipped a switch to lay flay on the side. To get the switch though, you had to use very thin pliers to wedge between the shoe and the switch. It was to make it more difficult for random accidents to happen with the size switch snagging on something.

So finding Frisk's type of shoe wasn't too difficult because some monsters like Enyo actually had feet that resembled human feet. Although there were some that made extra toe room with a metal cup to catch claws that made them have to put back many a shoe.

It seemed boots no matter what end of the earth were difficult to find.

Enyo: Aha! If these don't fit, you're completely hopeless. (hands Frisk a box with light brown leather boots, zigzagging strings, and strong tooth on the heel and toes)

Frisk: These look pretty durable. (slips on the shoe, sits down on a bench while Enyo adjusts the size. Two notches down was the perfect fit.)

Enyo: Alright lets see! (steps back)

Frisk jumped up and jogged around in the shoes.

Frisk: Oooooh… you know I don't think I've ever had any human shoes that were as comfortable as these.

Enyo: Haha! Sure you aren't a monster?

Frisk: Pff maybe I'm just waiting for my horns to grow in.

Enyo: Maybe you're waiting for a growth spurt, shorty. (pats her head and walks on) Get the box, and lets show everyone.

Frisk nabbed the box and skipped after Enyo. Walking on these shoes was like walking on air.

Halle: Those look so good on you. Wow….

Enyo: You find anything yet?

Halle: Uh… no…

Enyo took one look around, went to a shelf and grabbed a shorter pair of black books with white rims, and gave them to Halle.

Enyo: Have you got something to wedge the latch?

Halle: No…

Enyo: Put them on and I'll adjust them.

Halle did so, and Enyo adjusted them, and when Halle stood she nearly fell over in them.

Enyo: Did I make them too tight?!

Halle: No- they're just- they're comfy.

Enyo: … okay? So you're good? No falling?

Halle: You have really good sense of shoes.

While they waited for the other two to show up, Enyo hunted for a pair of shoes for Alcina.

…

A few minutes later Arie and Alcina came through the entrance with wrapped tails. Arie had a reddish cloth with a decorative gold chain spiraling around it with little gems. Alcina had a pale pink wrap with a silver glittery cord cross wrapped around it. There were a few chains at the end of her tail with a few gems as well.

Enyo nodded in approval: Looks nice!

Frisk: Kinda makes me wish I had a tail to decorate.

Enyo had found a pair of pale pink shoes with grey lip at the bottom, and many buckles to Alcina.

Alcina: Whoa-hey- Enyo! Oh hey these are nice.

Enyo: sure are. Go try em.

Alcina: I sure will… (she tossed off her old shoes and used her own claws to flip the size switch.

Frisk stared, remembering how Enyo's arm had shook a little trying to move the size switch. Alcina had barely flicked that switch with her own claw. What were those things made of? Did they even chip?!

Alcina rolled her ankles and examined the shoes. Her tail rolled in pleasure: Yes. Thank you Enyo, I'll be taking these. Enyo: You're not going to look at anything else?

Alcina: Nope. I am very satisfied with these. (skips around) They're good.

Enyo smiled in pride at that: Great! Lets go get these checked out then. Oh you don't have to take them off, it'll be too much to take the boxes. They'll get the tags off for you.

Alcina to the cashier: Excuse me, do you have an old shoe bin here?

Cashier: We do actually, there's a metal shoot right over there? (points to the right of the desk) it goes into the basement.

Alcina: Does anyone want to give away their old shoes?

Frisk: sure. I can't really use these here, and I don't want to hold on to them all day.

Halle: hmm… I guess so.

Alcina: Wonderful, thank you! (runs to the shoot and tosses down the shoes)

Cashier: We have to do what we can to salvage everything; we can't take our resources lightly.

Alcina: Good. (nods with a smile) the shoeless ones will appreciate that.

Cashier: Thank you for coming! (waves) Enjoy your new shoes!

…

Enyo liked picking out things for her friends, and no one seemed to mind because she was just really good at finding what they needed- and what matched.

She got Frisk a nice durable backpack with so many pockets it was unreal. It seemed like it would pack a great amount. Although for what specifically it could have been used for might have been hiking…

The coat store was another matter. Frisk was so tiny, and there were so few coats that would fit her properly.

Enyo: We'll probably just need to give you several layers of sweaters to wear underneath and you'll be fine.

Frisk: That would probably work.

Enyo swiped a few sweaters off a rack and flung them at Frisk: Mediums. Changing rooms- uh- that way. (points down an isle)

Frisk dove into the changing room and went through the sweaters.

Browns, blues and reds seemed to be good colors for her.

Enyo: Hmm… (stroking chin) Those brown and white stripes look good.

Frisk: I like it!

Enyo: Yeah, I do too, I'm gonna get you another one.

Frisk: Uh- (about to protest, but Enyo had already grabbed the sweater and thrown it over her arm) okay.

…

After a while of walking and hunger pains, they found a massive food court and decided they all wanted sandwiches.

Alcina: I wonder if they have anything italian…

Enyo: I think they do. Halle, what are you looking for?

Halle: Not really sure…

Frisk stood back and looked up at the menu ahead of them. There was so much to choose from! And for a people stuck in the underground, it was pretty amazing for them to be able to mimic surface foods. And from all corners of the earth too… But… if they could get that information, why and how were they still here?

?: if you ask me, the teriyaki chicken is pretty good.

Frisk nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard his voice. She refused to turn around.

Enyo's ears flicked a the voice, and she turned around: The Pun Man returns!

Sans: heya.

Enyo: Where have you been?

Sans: s'nowhere in particular. I've been driftin' around. *shrug*

Alcina: (watching Sans suspiciously)

Sans: (raises chin) Hey Al.

Alcina steps forward, toe to toe with Sans.

Frisk stepped back in worry.

Sans and Al lock eyes challengingly. San is still smirking.

Sans: do your worst.

Alcina: What is at the end of a rainbow?

Sans: W.

Alcina: You can see me in water, but I never get wet. What am I?

Sans: A reflection.

Alcina: What belongs to you but others use it more than you do?

Sans: Your name.

Alcina: Which word does not belong in the following list: Stop cop mop chop prop shop or crop?

Sans: Haha. Or. Come on Al, you can do better than that.

Alcina: What has a Heart but no other organs?

Sans: A deck of cards and a skeleton. Really? That the best you got?

Alcina: (speaks faster) A man is trapped in a room. The room has only two possible exits: two doors. Through the first door there is a room constructed from magnifying glass. The blazing hot sun instantly fries anything or anyone that enters. Through the second door there is a fire-breathing dragon. How does the man escape?

Frisk was lost after magnifying glass.

Sans: He waits until night time and then goes through the first door. Not a bad one.

Alcina: I am a ship that can be made to ride the greatest waves. I am not built by tool, but built by hearts and minds. What am I?

Sans: Friendship.

Alcina: Hmm. You pass. For now.

Sans: ya sure? No fire demons I have to fight?

Alcina: What, you chicken?

Sans: If I'm a chicken from Hyrule, heck yeah I'm a chicken.

Enyo had finished ordering: We kinda need to finish ordering, guys.

Sans: Yeah, sure. I'd hate to hold you up.

Alcina went to finish her order with Halle and Arie.

Enyo: You meet Frisk?

Sans: Frisk, huh? (turns to look at Frisk)

Frisk stares, very still and quiet: …

Sans: I'm Sans. Sans the Skeleton. Nice ta meet ya', Frisk. (holds out a hand)

Frisk: (slowly takes hand) Uh… ye-yeah-

*Pfffshhhhooooouuuugh*

Frisk recoiled backwards a few steps, and everyone nearby who'd heard burst out laughing.

Alcina: Sans! Did you just-!?

Sans: blame the skeleton, sure. (grinning broadly)

Frisk: What?! (frozen)

Halle: … has crashed.

Sans: (pats Frisk on the shoulder) You're okay. (winks at her with his left eye) Try not to jump outa your skin, there are enough skeletons runnin around here as it is. (quietly)

Frisk nodded.

Enyo: You want to catch some food with us?

Sans: hmm, as tempting as it sounds, I'm on a strict chilli dog diet.

Enyo: Oooh I "cheese" you then.

Sans: ayyyy (snaps phalanges at her and walks away) Catch you later new kid.

Frisk: … Sure?

Enyo pat Frisk on the back: You okay? (laughs)

Frisk: Y-yeah, he just uh- I mean…

Enyo: Never seen a skeleton monster before? His is an eccentric breed.

Alcina: You can say that again.

Enyo: Don't worry, he won't bite. He's a cool guy. He was the one who actually helped a lot of us find ms. Rachel.

Frisk: Huh?

Enyo: He looks out for the kids that don't have anywhere to go.

Frisk: Oh… that's… cool.

Enyo: Oh crap, you didn't get to order anything!

Frisk: woops.

Enyo: We'll blame the pun fiend later for distracting us. He's so good at that. (leads Frisk to the counter) What would you like?

Frisk: uhm… why not the teriyaki-whatsit.

…

(The cashier handed over a platter of everyone's sandwiches)

Enyo really liked meat, but she also needed her veggies. Halle liked her veggies, cheeses, and chicken. Alcina was particular about the combination of flavors, and the appropriate amount of veggies and meat. She complained about the lack of certain more nutritious ingredients that would be a lot healthier. Arie didn't really care as long as there was meat. And Frisk found the opinion of the scary skeleton to be of surprisingly good taste.
