Kennedy

"Can I steal this couch?" I ask. "It's perfect to nap on!"

I sit on the couch at Sans and Papyrus's house next to Sans. Some people are on the couch, other are standing.

"i wouldn't be able to take naps on this couch then," Sans replies.

"SANS YOU SHOULDN'T BE TAKING NAPS ANYWAYS, YOU LAZYBONES!" Papyrus scolds.

"Neither should you, Kennedy!" Annaka says to me.

Kennedy smiles. "Why? Bears hibernate for like seven months. Then again, they are unbearable."

Annaka stomps her foot on the ground. "KENNEDY!"

Sans smiles as well. "maybe they sleep because they get tired to the bone just like me."

"SANS!" Papyrus yells.

"Come on, guys," Nya says. "You've gotta admit, the puns are pun-tastic."

Everyone breaks into laughter except for Annaka and Papyrus, who look as though they want to pounce on someone(Annaka preferably on me, Papyrus preferably on Sans).

"Okay okay!" Kealani yells over the laughter. The room goes silent.

"We need to figure out how to get Kennedy into her Sans self," Kealani says.

"She has to get something that resembles Sans," Lily says, looking into space as she thinks. "What would it be?"

"She can't get it from a fight like Nya and Alyssa did," Juliana says. "because she doesn't fight him. We're not killing anyone."

"Well I didn't get it from fighting," Annaka says. "I just got the bone from Papyrus."

"IT WAS BECAUSE SHE CAME OUT WITH ME WHILE I WAS TRAINING. SHE TRIED THE BONE AND SHE WAS ALMOST AMAZING AS ME ON IT. THAT'S WHY I GAVE IT TO HER," Papyrus says.

Annaka nods in agreement.

"So that means Sans has to give something to Kennedy," Mimi says. "Right?"

They all continue to talk, leaving Sans and I totally out of the conversation.

"you think they notice us?" Sans asks.

I shake my head. "No. Maybe we could sneak out of here and go to Grillby's without them noticing."

Sans smiles.

"Guys!" a voice calls, which startles me. I see that it is Kealani who called to us and the room is silent.

"While you two were whispering," Kealani says. "we figured it out. Kennedy has to get Sans's jacket!"

"He can't just give it to her," Annaka interrupts. "it has to be earned or given specially or from the heart."

"Can't we just speed this along?!" Kealani exclaims.

And with that, the talking rises again, debating between the two sides: rush it or form the heart.

I roll my eyes at all the commotion and look over at Sans.

"What'd you think'll happen?" I ask him.

Sans shrugs. "hard to say. i'll take whatever is easiest. and by easiest, i mean going to grillby's out of it."

I quietly laugh and he smiles.

"Maybe we could go sometime," I offer.

Sans nods. "yeah."

I look back to the commotion and see everyone arguing about it.

Juliana argues with Elizabeth.

"It should be from the heart," Juliana says. "it would be more dedicated."

"But speeding it up would be better!" Elizabeth exclaims. "Plus, it would mean me closer to turning into my fabulous Mettaton self!"

Elizabeth strikes a pose and I snicker.

I look over to everyone else as they argue and argue and argue.

Finally, i just can't take it anymore.

"Enough!" I exclaim.

The whole room falls dead quiet and everyone(including Sans)stares at me.

"I've had enough with the arguing," I say. "Figure this out reasonably but Sans and I have had enough."

I walk towards the door and motion for Sans to follow.

He stands up and walks over to me.

"Where are you guys going? Huh?" Kealani asks.

I open the door and take one last look at the whole room.

"Grillby's," I reply and before anyone can say anything else, Sans and I walk out the door and shut it.

"does stuff like that always happen with your friends?" Sans asks.

I shake my head. "No. It must just be being down here. No one has ever been down here except for Annaka."

Sans shrugs. "you aren't acting like them and this is your first time. then again, you are pretty laid back."

I nod in agreement. "Can't argue there."

Sans smiles and starts to walk, hands in pockets.

"let's get going," he says. "before anyone comes out and drags us back in."

I walk besides Sans, admiring Snowdin and all of its features.

This is so amazing! But at the same time, unbelievable!

We finally reach Grillby's and walk inside.

Many monsters inside greet Sans. He replies back to all of them and leads me to the stools at the bar.

I slide into one of the stools and Sans slides into the other.

"what are you going to get?" Sans asks.

I think for a moment.

"Fries," I reply.

Sans nods. "ok. hey grillby. two orders of fries."

Grillby goes to the door in the back.

"so i've been meaning to ask you, kid," Sans says.

Oh god. What could this be about?

"who's side are you on in their arguing?" he asks.

I shake my head and shrug. "I don't know, and I don't I really care because it's useless, anyway. It'll just happen how it happens."

"what do you think will happen?" he asks.

I shake my head again. "No idea. If I knew what was going on back at your house, maybe I could guess what is."

Just then, Grillby comes out with two plates of fries and puts them down in front of the both of us.

Sans looks to me, holding up a bottle of ketchup. "ketchup?"

I grab the bottle of ketchup and begin untwisting the cap. "Heck yeah!"

Annaka

"Do you guys finally agree with me on this?"

Kealani looks to the other girls who were trying to rush it along, then back at me.

"Yes, Annaka," she says. "We agree."

I nod. "Good. Now, we have to find Kennedy and Sans."

"Didn't they go to Grillby's?" Emily reminds me.

I slightly roll my eyes. "Of course Kennedy would want to go to Grillby's."

"Let's just wait for them," Elizabeth says. "they're bound to come back soon."

Everyone finally agrees on something without having to argue about it.

I sit down on the couch, next to Juliana.

Juliana looks over at me and whispers, "When do you think I'll see Frisk?"

I shrug. "We could have Papyrus call them. Last time, he did and Frisk came."

"What would I get from Frisk though?"

I shrug once more. "That's yet to be discovered."

Juliana nods. "Right."

And with that, Juliana leans back in the couch and I can see the gears working in her head.

Bu there's only one thought in my head:

We better not get into another argument. Or else, we're never gonna make it through the underground.
