Intermission
That is the end of the 'Underground Arc', the next story is going to be the 'Demons' Revenge' Arc. I will continue to post the next arc on this fic to avoid possible confusion.
Sort-of prologue for the next arc:
a month has passed since us monsters resurfaced. times were difficult at first, chara, who still hated humanity, was not as good of an ambassador as frisk was in the first timeline. luckily for us monsters though, we had a secret weapon that we didn't know we had.
falmercia was surprisingly helpful in assisting the monsters by going through the paperwork and treaties and pointing out flaws and loopholes that the humans could use to exploit us, heh, she even gave asgore pointers on how to convince the humans to accept us. the things that the demon will do to secure a comfortable place to stay.
our biggest selling point turned out to be offering to share the power core supplies, turns out that creating clean sustainable energy is a big problem in the human world. the core doesn't need that much staff to look after it and keep it running, dad and i are more than enough, and with alphys helping out too, we even have time for a few side-experiments.
so, thanks to falmercia pointing out that golden egg of ours, we monsters now live amongst the humans in the human city.
toriel's back, she didn't get along with asgore at first, but for the sake of chara and asriel, she's agreed to give him another chance. she now works as a teacher at the city's best school, which actually takes students from kindergarten to a university level. i've actually heard that she's been nagging falmercia to teach a class there at the start of the next semester on soul magic as part of the school's new magic curriculum, good luck on that one.
falmercia, well since all the treaties got smoothed over hasn't left her room in the dreemurr residence, though she does accept visits from papyrus and occasionally frisk, asriel and myself, something about sloth stained being more tolerable to her.
speaking about my bro, when grillby's moved up to the surface, it became a huge hit, turns out humans love monster food, so for the first time ever grillby needed to hire some help, and because i'm his biggest customer, he agreed to take papyrus in. grillby, of course, is a way better teacher than undyne, so pap's cooking is actually really good now.
undyne? well, she's obviously still mad at falmercia, can't blame her. she's acting as the royal family's bodyguard at the moment, and even though falmercia refuses to leave her room, the two somehow find ways to clash.
little frisk has been officially adopted by gaster, and now the royal family has been clued into her original deal with falmercia, though with the exception of chara and asriel, we chose to spare them from the tale of the resets, it just would have been too messy.
all three of the kids are going to the same school that toriel teaches at, and she tells me that they're good friends with each other, and asriel and chara actually fight over frisk's attention. seems harmless, but if she gets hurt because of them again they're gonna have a bad time.
everything seems good, but somethings been bothering me. falmercia is still very secretive about her past amongst other things. it wouldn't bother me too much if she didn't seem so… nervous the few times we have managed to get her out of the house. it's almost like she is scared that someone will find her.
which doesn't make sense, because, besides us, everyone that ever had beef against her should be dead a long time now, right?
