[The term is "nihilist," technically, but he doubts anybody's real interested in knowing it. Nothing really matters, so...why even try? The universe doesn't care.

'Course, the universe doesn't care if you're a colossal fuck-up either. 'S nice to think about sometimes, when everything else just gets so loud.]

don't really take much believing at all.
just understanding the world as it is.

whaddaya think? too sappy?

[somuchlove]

[When things get to loud and sharp and those moments when you want to stop, there is some strange peace in knowing that the world would continue to turn even without you. Even when you decide to take a little walk, it'll keep on turning.]

A bit.

But considering the subject, it makes sense. Most conversations about the stars and hope tend to be sappy.

[But calming, in that odd way.]

[skelebro]

unless you're arguing about the status of planets, that is.
someone should start up a petition.
let old pluto be a planet again.

[somuchlove]

[Ahaha. Well it was getting a little dark there, so Chara moves along with him.]

You do have to question the logic behind changing it.

But yes, we should.

G. O. O. P.

Good Old Orginal Pluto.

[....not exactly the best name. Guess they did take after Asgore a little bit after all.]

[skelebro]

i like it.
got a real nice ring to it.

i'll pitch it to the cave sometime.

[somuchlove]

Let me know when you do.

[Even if he doesn't, this is still kind of funny.]

Although I recommend going to the library before making another bet with my Partner. You may wind up on another dreaded date with them.

[skelebro]

thanks for the heads-up.
i wouldn't worry, though.
last i checked they were flirting up a storm with the gods.

[somuchlove]

[There's a pause in the text and Sans is free to imagine them slapping their forehead because seriously Frisk?!]

One of these days that option is going to get them in trouble.

I regret pointing it out.

[skelebro]

i wouldn't sweat it.
hope seems to like 'em.
and you know hope.
he doesn't like anybody.

[But Frisk is, as always, the exception.]

[somuchlove]

I'm not surprised.

Are they still telling jokes to him?

[They've caught them texting to Hope once or twice and while Chara wasn't exactly fond of the gods, it seemed to make Frisk happy to make Hope happy.]

[skelebro]

wouldn't be surprised if that were the case.

[somuchlove]

If it makes them happy.

Frisk often likes making people laugh.

[skelebro]

yeah. i know.

[And that's...a problem. 'Cause he thinks he gets in the way of that. Or he gets in the way of them thinking that.]

they're a good kid.

[somuchlove]

* Despite everything.

[It may come across as an odd way of putting it, but it makes sense in a weird way. Despite the things they went through, it still was just Frisk.]

They are even attempting to clean a little bit on the streets.

I think they become restless without things to do.

[skelebro]

[Despite everything.]

i've been looking into that a little.
no promises, but it's a work in progress.

[somuchlove]

What are you planning, if you don't mind me asking?

[It's more curiosity than anything. Sans looking into something for Frisk.]

[skelebro]

trying to get a guy to teach me and them healing magic.

[It feels rude not to offer, even if he's pretty sure it won't...

Eh. Don't hurt to ask.]

interested?

[somuchlove]

[It's a nice thought, but...]

Thank you for offering.

But I will have to pass for now. It is appreciative that you are bring along Frisk, however.

[skelebro]

[Can't say he wasn't expecting that one. Ah, well. Better luck next time, maybe.]

i'll see if it pans out.
they could do with something nice to look forward to.
