winged arm knocks on the dreemurr’s door , retreating behind her back with her other hand as she waited . this time around , she was a bit more optimistic . noelle accepting her really boosted her confidence in her transition , and she went to the next person she had in her mental list : kris .

she went over her little speech in her head , gazing around to let her new flowy haircut bounce about as she waited for them to approach the door . when she hears the door open , she puts on her best smile as she closes her eyes .

“ kris , i know this might come as a shock , but i’m - “

the words pause in her beak , eyes widening after reopening at the sight of kris and their attire . it takes a second , before something in her head clicks .

— “ Yo, Kris! What’s shakin’? You free at all? ”

“Y O U ! ! ! ! !”

FUCKING GRABS SUSIE GRABS HER GRABS HER AND

@newsaveplus​​ asked: There's a knock on the door, audible heavy breathing as Kris catches their breath on the other side. When opened, they're holding a box of peppermint pocky and holding a single finger up to indicate they still need a moment. “Sorry.. Sans was out... so I ran... literally the next town... over. I know it's, like, almost midnight, but..." They suck in a deep breath and manage to open the box, delicately placing a stick of the treat into their mouth as, while they're acting casual about it, their cheeks are burning so red Kris may as well be the glowing one for once.

It was late. Very late. Extremely freaking late.

Noelle had been getting ready to go to bed, and was hardly expecting to get a knock at her front door... much less open it up to see a panting human on the other side. One holding a box of... peppermint pocky... ah. Was that what day it was?

Green eyes can’t help but blink at the sight even after the realization hits, the initial stun lasting more than long enough for Kris to compose themselves. Next thing the pajama-adorned reindeer knows, they’ve got a stick of it in their mouth and was presenting the other end to her.. something that might have made her face flush a bit, were it not for their own blushing making their attempts at remaining cool pitifully adorable.

“Gosh, Kris, you really didn’t have to run off out of town just for some pocky.” She said, with a small giggle and roll of her eyes...

... before quickly & abruptly leaning forwards, taking her end of the pocky and not waiting at all for the ‘game’ to actually start before she’d already munched past the halfway point of the stick. Something that might’ve perturbed the poor human, if it wasn’t for-

*Smeck*

-that coming almost immediately with it, soft lips meeting theirs with a pleasant hum accompanying them, the taste of peppermint oddly growing even stronger despite her taking most of the pocky... the act being given chance to last longer than a mere peck, but still breaking hastily enough. It was still 11pm, after all.

“You could’ve just asked if you wanted a kiss, after all. Thanks for the pocky, though~!”

While being separated from one’s other party members wasn’t the best experience in a brand new dark world, they’d been handling themselves well for the most part- sure, sparing was a bit more of a process without two other ACT partners around, but it was going well enough for them at the moment.

One more turn, and this current batch of enemies would be spared and recruited back for Castle Town... or, at least, they were going to be, before a slash and a pink blur abruptly sends them FLEEing the battle with their HP suddenly cut in half.

At first, one might’ve gotten flashbacks to adventures with a certain other mean girl... but, as the dust clears and the culprit is left visible, they’d instead be met by the sight of someone much less familiar and much more human. One also wielding a pink sword, which she’d just used to... annoyingly great effect.

Sheathing it before leering back at them from over her shoulder. Eyes darting between them and their own sword.
