Several wondrous things had happened since the monsters escaped Mt. Ebott two years ago. Papyrus was finally learning how to make proper spaghetti, Sans was able to relax for real, Toriel and Asgore had settled back down (with their favorite houseplant, Flowey), Mettaton was making it big, Napstablook was feeling less like garbage, and even Undyne and Alphys seemed relaxed and happy. Of course, they all still had deep connections with their savior, Frisk.
Frisk actually lived with Toriel, Asgore, Sans, and Papyrus, since the skele-bros had really nowhere else to go. Undyne and Alphys were more like aunt figures, and they lived together.
None of them would've allowed Frisk on the internet if they knew what would happen.
"Wow!" She cried happily. "You got internet!?"
Toriel stood a few feet behind her, smiling warmly as always. "It's what you asked for, my child," she said in the soft, gentle voice she used for her adopted daughter.
Grinning widely, Frisk wasted no time in utilizing the new abundance of information. One day, however, was a different story. Unable to contain her emotions (a mixture of excitement, fear, and triumph), she ended up calling all of her friends to the house.
"hey kid, wassup?"
Frisk turned to look seriously at the monsters gathered behind her. "Have you heard of... fanfictions?"
Several eyes turned to Alphys, who looked down with a slight giggle.
"I mean, not Alphys fanfictions," she corrected herself quickly. "Like, a website for fanfictions?"
A ripple of amusement went through the room. "Gosh, I guess I haven't," Asgore admitted in his deep, rich voice.
"WHY, OF COURSE! THE GREAT PAPYRUS KNOWS EVERYTHING!" Papyrus exclaimed, followed by leaning close enough to Frisk so that only she could hear, "WHAT IS IT AGAIN?"
"Well... it's kinda hard to explain..."
"Oh, come on just do it already!" Came the shrill whine of Flowey's voice.
Frisk smiled before shrugging and turning back to her computer. "All right, but I must warn you, things can get pretty-" she stopped mid-warning to see that the monsters were not even listening to her, leaving just a confused yet still smiling Toriel and a slightly baffled Asgore.
"Wow! Th-there's so much to choose from!" Alphys marveled.
"Hey look! They got anime!" Undyne exclaimed, exchanging a happy glance with Alphys.
Realizing her mistake, Frisk pushed through the crowd to the front. "Let's skip this right now, shall we?" She went back a few pages and quickly clicked on the "Games" tab before anyone could object, then in turn in the "Undertale" tab.
"'Undertale'? What's that?"
"My child, Frisk, are you sure this is safe?"
"Of course, Goat-mom," she assured her. "So long as their careful."
"HUMAN!"
"Yes, Papyrus?"
"WHAT IS, 'PAPYTON'? AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN BY 'FLUFF'?"
"How about this?" She avoided the questions and hurriedly seized control over the laptop. "How about, I choose the fanfictions?"
"BUT, WHY CAN'T I, THE GREAT-"
"Because you just can't, okay?" she interrupted, clicking on an adventure/humor fic, hoping it was safe. "There ya' go."
"Hey, Asri... do you... like me?" Chara asked tentatively.
Asriel blinked. "Of course, you're like a brother to me!"
"No..." he looked away, suddenly unsure for the first time of his life. "I mean, like like me. Like, more than brothers."
Suddenly, Asriel looked sick, and turned without another word.
"Wait! You didn't answer me? D-do you?"
"How did you know?"
Frisk furiously clicked away from the page. Currently, Flowey was burying his face in his leaves. "Why did you do that to me?" he choked.
"It didn't say it was romance, okay?"
"I feel like... I don't know. Just please, don't do that again!"
"Flowey, I'm sorry, okay?"
"You did that on purpose! I've pretty much lost everything, you don't have to ruin my self-respect, too!"
"Flowey, I said I was so-"
"Don't you think I deserve a little respect?"
"Papyrus, pick the next one," Frisk demanded while trying to cheer up the distressed flower.
"Hey look, Papyrus! That one has you in it!" Undyne exclaimed suddenly, hitting the screen with one finger.
Mettaton glared angrily at the short skeleton, who continued to have his signature grin. He was more than fed up with Papyrus's brother always getting in his way. "Look, I want you, to give Papyrus and I some room to do our stuff, or I'll tell Toriel exactly how you feel about her."
Suddenly, Sans was running away, and Mettaton smiled in triumph before realizing that the goat in question was walking past. He didn't catch Sans's words to her, but gaped when he saw the skeleton bend down to one knee and pull out a diamond ring, proposing to her, and even more so when she got the biggest smile ever and picked him up in a huge hug, her words almost squeals with joy and excitement, before Sans ran back over to the robot, blushing like crazy.
He had no words to say, and they stared at each other in silence. Mettaton opened his mouth, then closed it again, unsure of himself. "well," Sans started, his grin now smug. "what else you got?"
"wait, tori and i?" Sans cut in. "whoever wrote that..."
In the background, Alphys was logging into her own account and deleting the story before they could get any farther. Papyrus, however, seemed slightly sad. "BUT... BUT WHAT ABOUT ME?"
They turned to Frisk, who was not only still trying to comfort Flowey, but Toriel was towering over her, ready to question her about the fanfiction.
"Here, let me try," Undyne forcefully snatched the laptop.
Sans's eye glowed slightly. "what did you do?" he demanded.
"Fine, I killed Asriel." She gave a sneering grin. "And I enjoyed every second of it."
"and chara? did you enjoy that, too?"
"Of course not," she scoffed. "Chara was far too wimpy."
"Stop that! Stop that right now! Frrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssskkkkkkk! They're reading fanfictions about meeeeeeeeeeeee!" Flowey whined.
Frisk sighed. "Flowey, that's you being in a pot speaking. What happened to Mr. Friendliness Pellets?"
"well, that leaves me, i guess?"
"Yeeeeesssss, you're probably the best we've got. Go get 'em, Sans," Frisk nodded to him.
Sans was walking down the road in Snowdin. He had never felt the cold before, because of being a skeleton, but now, his brother gone, he could feel every snowflake settling on his bones, every cold chill making it through his parka. His eye blazed blue fire, tears streamed down his cheek bones. However, he kept smiling. What if Paps is watching?
Suddenly, a strange goat-monster stepped in his way. "Who are you?" She demanded.
She was tall, taller than Papyrus, with soft white fur and a purple robe, the royal symbol printed clearly in the center. Her eyes were soft as well, but her expression was sharp with pain and misery. "who are you?" he retorted.
She smiled softly. "Toriel. Now answer my question."
"sans, sans the skeleton," he told her.
They stared at each other for several moments, passion lighting their gazes. "You're hurt," she observed.
"only internally."
They were silent again.
"do you... want to... got to grillby's...?"
"Actually... I was thinking... somewhere else..."
"what is wrong with these people?" Sans hissed, jumping back.
"What?" Undyne grabbed the computer again and read over the next few paragraphs. "Ah. Heh, wow, they must think you two would look really good together."
"what?" he furiously stole it from her, reading over the page with increased anger before throwing it several paces away, his eye blazing. He summoned bones from the ceiling and floor, filling it with holes, summoned ten Gaster Blasters around it and blasted it at once, summoned another group of bones then finished it off with another blast from twice as many blasters.
When the dust cleared, Sans was gone, leaving several baffled expressions behind. "Okay?"
"Whoa," even Royal Guard Undyne was impressed.
"BROTHER! QUIT FOOLING AROUND!" Papyrus stamped his feet in anger, storming out of the room.
"Golly, that was... interesting," Asgore seemed completely and utterly unsure of what happened or what to think.
Luckily, Toriel seemed preoccupied with trying to calm both Flowey and Frisk down, and did not hear the last fanfiction.
"So, you're leaving now?" Frisk asked.
"Yeah, Fairy Tail is on!" Undyne exclaimed, and Alphys perked up.
"Yeah, it is!" Together, both monsters set off towards their home.
"oh, and kid," Sans started after they left.
"Yeah?"
He turned to her, his pupils gone, his grin laced with menace. "if you every do that again, you're gonna have a bad time."
A/N: So, here is this random thing I thought of while on the Undertale archives. Um, if you want to see more, please review that you do, but I probably won't unless the response if highly positive. So, until next time, guys!
