Let's Go In The Garden
Who: Chara, Frisk, and you!
What: Two kids enjoy a classic tale, and a small child decides to intrude on everyone’s personal space.
When: November 13-15th
Where: Near the Storyteller’s Temple, and across the Islets
Warnings: Potential CW for self-harm in the third prompt.
You’ll Find Something Waiting -- 13th
[Just because it’s overcast doesn’t mean that today isn’t still warm. The greatest reprieve to the heat at the height of the day is the ocean breeze sweeping up across the beach and through the trees around the Storyteller’s Temple. It makes for a peaceful area to stop for a while- to sit and think, to wander, to nap. Undoubtedly, a few people would take advantage of this, over the course of the day
Those travelling to and from the islets may hear the voice of one such person relatively close to the mana pool. Their words seem almost practised, spoken in a tone that is almost caught up in what they have to say, almost reverent.]
Yuichi and I are climbing a ladder in the jet-black gloom. Together, we peer into the cauldron of hell. We stare into the bubbling red sea of fire, and the air hitting our faces is so hot it makes us reel…
[A curious person might decide to follow the voice. It wouldn’t take long. And in doing so, they’d come across two children, one reclining against a tree with a well-loved book in hand, carefully holding the pages. The child known as Kidwun continues to read aloud, whilst their Partner….
The child known as Kittu seems to have dozed off. Head in their sibling’s lap, they take no notice of anyone approaching.
Chara does. And whilst their eyes flick up from the pages of the book itself, they continue speaking- continue reading a story that, apparently, they don’t really need the book to read aloud, anymore.]
But the place we are in right now is just too dreadful. It is not a place where two people can make a life together.
Although I had been earnestly daydreaming until then, I suddenly started to laugh. “I see two lovers standing over the edge of the cauldron to hell. Are they contemplating a double suicide? This means their love will end in hell.”
I couldn’t stop laughing.
Right There Where You Left It -- 13 to the 15th
There’s a child with a mission, stalking across the island. Knocking on doors and approaching anyone who doesn’t quite belong in this realm. Not keen on talking with them? Tough, really. If anything, it’s those who seem to be going out of their way to step around them that Chara haunts the most, insistently dogging their heels until they give up, and deal with what the child has to say.
This is their time to shine, after all. Their time, to do what they do best.
“Forgive my intrusion, but may I steal a moment of your time? I would like to ask you a few questions.”
Ignore any signs they’re unwelcome in their continued endeavors to be as invasive as possible.
[[OOC: there’s a handy little OOC post for this; if you haven’t checked it out yet, please do, even if you’d like to thread a conversation!]]
Everything Stays, But It Still Changes -- early mornings, 13th to 15th
If the past six weeks have proven anything, it is that Chara has a weakness they can no longer ignore. Guzma has made mention of it. Connor has made mention of it. More than once, this gap of experience has nearly led to their doom… so perhaps it’s time to do something about it.
Sneaking away from their hut in the early morning, Chara chooses a section of beach that’s not too far from the Storyteller’s temple, but not too close. If they make a serious error, a call for help may still prove fortuitous… and hopefully, no one will stumble across them otherwise. For several minutes, Chara stands at the shoreline. Simply staring out at the waves as they lose themself in thought.
Then they make a face, and pull off their shoes. The knife strapped to their hip follows… and four more after it, stowed away in their pack and carefully hidden from view. The last, important piece? A heart-shaped locket, stowed away in their left shoe. Even if someone were to make their way into their pack without Chara noticing, they wouldn’t find that.
Heaven help them if they did.
And that is all the excuses they have to stall, before avoiding what they must do becomes innate procrastination. Expression still sour, the child steps into the waves, deeper and deeper. When the water reaches their chest, they stop, once again looking about carefully, just to ensure that absolutely no one is watching.
Hours later, they don’t really care. Flopping about in the waves, Chara is clearly making- an attempt at….something. Kicking off the ground and flailing their arms and legs, until they inevitably sink below the surface.
So anyway learning to swim unassisted is going Super Well.

[Frisk doesn't often interrupt. The skill of reticence served them well in their young years, however much of a disservice it proved to be in the Underground; where monsters didn't really understand that for humans, magic wasn't a 'hello', it wasn't a fun, friendly game, it wasn't anything good and kind like showing one's SOUL without the intention to cause harm to someone else's. Have you heard the one about a march of death that could be stopped if you'd just opened your mouth and said, "ow, stop?" Frisk hadn't, but maybe that was their fault for not trying.]
[Just little friendliness pellets. Don't interrupt.]
[They interrupt now. Despite everything, their hand remains extended for Asriel, because they've already determined that's where it belongs. But there's been a shift in them, in the way they're sitting, straight and thin-mouthed, all of the lazy, passive language gone from their posture. Frisk has never been especially forceful, but they can be immovable. They can stare at a barrier, or a void, or a line of red numbers, and think nothing other than that it's an obstacle. In their way.]
[That's not how they're looking at Asriel right now.]
[Frisk is looking at him with a flash of color visible in their eyes, red and rusted. They're not smiling, but they're not mad, because why? Why does any of this matter? Chara was once the biggest missing piece to the jigsaw, in the Underground; the death that disassembled the kingdom with grief, the name that nobody called until Frisk fell down a mountain. Now it's not so different. Now it's Asriel. Now it's Asriel, the sibling and friend buried deep down in two corrupted human SOULs, who's willing to be forgotten because he thinks it will make someone he loves happy.]
[Frisk is just -- here. They were always just here.]
[They interrupt; because they don't care what's happening between the Underground's royal siblings right now. They're not going to allow it.]
[No one is happy with this. They've made so very sure of that.]
You're not listening. We gave all of that up. You can want it and push as much as you want to, but it's not going to happen anyway.
Everyone here has already tried letting go to make someone else happy. It doesn't work. So let's stop doing it.

They aren't amused by whatever game Chara and Asriel seem intent on playing. And for that reason, Chara reconsiders their words, allowing the silence to sit between them as their Partner...
Remains, as always, a hypocrite.]
I understand...the desire for our relationship to be as it was before. But this is not before, Asriel. Things have changed. We have both changed.
[They keep their voice level, attempting to maintain a level of neutrality.]
That my world has expanded beyond you does not omit you from my life entirely. If this is not enough for you, then to leave is your choice.
But do not presume that it is mine.
