[I T E M] - *Torn Notebook

[A C T] - *Give

[*You take out the Torn Notebook. You find a pencil stuck in the spiral spine. You gave them both to the snake robot. The soul of the human of whom it used to belong to probably wouldn’t mind someone else writing on it, if it meant it would help someone. Whatever written pages it had before were torn out by someone…or something else. You weren’t sure.]

[A C T] - *Converse

[“…It used to belong to someone else. A writer.”]

[*You felt that needed to be said. No one else knew what happened to the six humans that fell to the Underground besides the monsters, so you felt that it was up to you to tell others that they were here, once upon a time. Even if you didn’t knew them personally.]

“My skills make me well-suited for gathering information and making maps just like this.  I’ve taken a liking to the former and using that talent to watch out for others - kind of like a security system that goes wherever you do.  The downside is that while I can fight and fend off attackers, I’m hardly the strongest.  I never was made for fighting.”  It was only a modification added later on in his life.  Yet, he would make use of what he was given if he absolutely had to.

[*That was the gist of what you heard from the snake robot. He sounded kind of like ALPHYS when she watched you from her lab. Except he actually followed you around. You can't help but think that's just a little bit creepy, but so far he's been nothing but helpful. Actually, now that you think about it, he reminds you of SANS, minus the puns.]

[*You got a Map. That was really nice of him. You stare at the map for a moment. The words do look a little messy, but it's legible. The two things that really stood out to you was Light Labs and the Robot Museum. Another was the fact that the snake robot mentioned he wasn't made for fighting. In truth, no one really is. It's never the answer to anything.]

[A C T] - *Thank

["Thank you very much...but can I ask you something? Is Light Labs where all the robots here were made?"]

[*You put away the Map. You should probably introduce yourself. It's common manners, after all.]

[A C T] - *Greet

[*You like going back to the Waterfall sometimes to listen to the music box that played on and on in the statue. It was a nice and simple tune, one that often gets stuck in your head for hours. You find yourself whistling along, knowing the song by heart and memory. You had to, of course, to get past the puzzle with the piano.]

[*You couldn’t get the so called great treasure in that room, but at least you got something better. Music.]

The earth cracks gently underneath their boots as they step inside the room, their gaze analytical, but not cruel. *If I can be honest for a second, I’m a lil’ surprised we haven’t met in person sooner. You probably don’t know me. But you’re the only human who made it farther than I did, out here in the Underground, without dyin’. 

While extending a hand, they look up to meet the other’s height. *My name’s Yvon, by the way. What brings you out here? 

[*You are...actually a little surprised. Another human in the Underground...?]

[*Once they explained, you start to think. They sounded like they had been here before, and when they said 'died', you start to put it together. There was only seven humans that had ever gotten stuck in the Underground, so...]

[*...They...had to be one of the other six human souls.]

[A C T] - *Handshake

[*You shake YVON'S hand. It felt very cold, but you don't mind. You then point to the statue with the music box playing its simple melody. You were just listening to it.]

[A C T] - *Talk

["...I'm listening to the song. It's very nice...My name is Frisk, by the way."]

[*You pause.]

@ask-mightynobeck wants to meet a gentle pacifist.

[*You stare quizzically at the…person with fancy headphones. Odd that they would wear such strange armor in Hotland, of all places. Wasn’t he practically melting in there?]

[A C T] - *Offer

[*Fortunately, you were right next to the water cooler. You grab a cup, fill it with cool water, and offer it to the green-eyed boy. Hopefully you could get them out of here in time before they fainted or something. Maybe they could make it to the lab if they hurried.]

Beck didn’t why or how he got to this strange place. Yet he knew one thing for sure, this place if frying his sensors. Beck wasn’t use to hot temperatures likes this, same goes for cold ones too. Suddenly he noticed a small child, a bit shorter than he was came up to him. What are they holding? Beck studied it for a second and came to a realization it was water. The small bot grabbed the cub of water and chugged it down. Yup he was some what dehydrated.

“Hey, thanks kid. I needed that.”

Beck gave the kid a friendly smile and a pat on their head. Though Beck knew that the water wasn’t going to last that long in his system. Hotland was extremely hot after all.

[*You were patted on the head by the strange boy. You felt the need to puff out your cheeks in frustration, but there's no time for that.]

[A C T] - *Help

["There's a lab just over that way. It's air conditioned. Follow me."]

[A C T] - *Lead

[*You motion to the strange boy to follow you. After walking a little to the right, you find yourself in front of the Laboratory. The guards weren't there by the path to the Core. They must be on a date.]

[A C T] - *Knock

[*You knock on the door. ALPHYS wouldn't mind you bringing someone else in. At least, you hope so. The door opens automatically. Fresh, cool air greets you as you both step inside. It's still the same as ever. Same monitor watching you, same computer filled with notes and figurines....same hole in the wall? ALPHYS should really fix that...]

[*You WERE being watched. You are not intimidated at all by the strange, snake like robot. You have faced far worse than to be scared by snakes. Still, you do not feel as if you are in any danger.  In fact, from the sound of it, the snake robot was actually concerned for you.]

[A C T] - *Cell

[*You pull out your cell phone and point to it. You had contact with your friends. And even if things did get bad, you had your DETERMINATION. You are not weak or alone.]

[A C T] - *Talk

[*The surface looks…different than you remember. There were a lot more robots, and one of them in a police looking uniform asked if you were lost. You politely say no and move on. If you did get lost, you had TORIEL, PAPYRUS, and ALPHYS on your cell phone.]

[*…Even if you didn’t really know where you are at the moment, it wouldn’t hurt to explore. You think METTATON would really like this place.]

[*Eventually, you stop and find that you’ve walked quite a bit too far.]
