Ted frowned at the sight of the knife, immediately tensing up when he noticed it. He was scared and this person was apparently dangerous… He didn’t want to get too close. He just wanted to go home.

As soon as Frisk responded with ‘Hell,’ tears began filling his eyes and he looked a bit panicked, but did his best to relax. Don’t panic. This is just another universe, he’ll be fine.. Right?

He took a deep breath when he was asked how he got there, hesitating for a bit before responding. “Um.. R- Right- I,, I fell..? I think..? I-I’m not entirely sure- This is weird..” He sniffled, rubbing his eyes. Why couldn’t he have brought a friend with him?

     Jeez, they’ve been away from human contact for way too long, judging by the way their little joke flew right over the kid’s head and sent him in tears. Yikes. Maybe Frisk should’ve figured that answering the way they did to a kid that young probably wouldn’t be a good thing. Frankly, they stopped caring about that a long time ago, considering they didn’t need to anymore.

     He wasn’t a monster. So Frisk had no need to harm him.  “ Wha--?  Don’t cry, sheesh!  I was just kidding. ”  They made an attempt at calming him down. Though they weren’t confident it was actually working or not.

      ———  “ You fell?  ”   Frisk asked, brow raised at him.  “ ...So did I. ” 

     Not that they knew what he was capable of, but the answer made sense to them considering the large crevice in Mt. Ebott was how Frisk got doomed to suffer here, and they assumed that was the same way the boy came through.

     What the hell?  Was that a voice just now?  Frisk wondered if they’d gotten to the point where they started hallucinating or something, and immediately their gaze darted to the source of the sound. A little boy. A human boy. Been a while since they’ve ran into anyone of their own kind, huh. Their grip on the knife in their pocket hadn’t loosened at all, but their expression softened just a bit upon seeing him.

     He was just some kid, wasn’t he?  Then again, so was Frisk, and considering the state of the empty, dusty Underground... Still, a kid didn’t deserve being down here. Not unless he did something to deserve it. Not like Frisk.

     There was really no reason for Felix to head out for the day other than he simply just felt like it. He almost passed by his brother on the way out, but then he paused and considered perhaps inviting him along. They both could use the break, couldn’t they?  And maybe it was little things like this that was Felix’s way of trying to make up for the past couple years. He pushed those thoughts to the side.

     Felix hadn’t slept very well the night before, but how could he ever have slept in today of all days?  There was time to berate himself later. Or take it out on Teddy before he didn’t have the chance to anymore, considering this day was particularly special. Considering the new arrivals to the school, Felix was a lot more motivated to put his plan into action today.

     Maybe it was part of the reason why he hadn’t slept well. But poor, naive Teddy was waking him up. Maybe he was good for something after all. But this was really just a one time thing. And Felix would make sure it’d stay that way. 

Ted made a little whine in response to being jabbed, keeping quiet as Felix spoke. But he didn’t let himself get distracted enough to fall over from the poking.

He paused when he was given the chance to ‘correct’ himself, and begrudgingly, he did. “Of course not, Felix. I’m sorry. It’s my fault, not yours..” He stated, gaze changing to look at the ground.

     Of course, Felix wasn’t expecting anything less from his brother. Teddy was smart enough to know what this meant for him;  that he was supposed to be sucking up to Felix and retracting the blame on him. Because, obviously, Felix could never be at fault here. And he hated that Teddy accused him in the first place, despite whether it was true or not.

     As unfortunate as this situation was for the both of them, Felix could barely hold back the automatic feeling of annoyance the moment his brother said that. 

     “ Excuse me? ”  He glared at Teddy,  “ I believe I didn’t hear you right. I could have sworn you were just now blaming me for us getting lost when you’re just as much at fault here as I am. ”  He jabbed his brother’s chest with a finger, as if to emphasize how much Felix wasn’t the one to blame.

     He continued, gaze pointed at his twin like a knife as he silently dared Ted to answer,  “ But I know you would never say that. Would you, Teddy? ”  

Ted frowned. “We’re barely even allowed to have cookies and you took most of them! It’s unfair!” He complained, reaching over to try and snatch the cookie from his brother. Even if most of it was gone.

“Stop hogging all the cookies, I only got four!!” He whined pathetically.

     Felix sported a smug expression as he chewed on his cookie.  “ Yes, exactly, which is why you should stop being slow or I’m going to take them all next time too. ”  He grinned, and pulled the cookie away, holding it out of his brother’s reach.

Ted looked up from his desk. He was,, clearly doing something, but still, he responded with a ‘No.’, turning in his chair to face Felix. “What’s going on, Felix?” He questioned. “Better be important.”

To be more specific on what he was doing, there were papers out on his desk, as well as his laptop. Looks like he was writing something.

     Oh. His twin was busy, that was obvious. Felix never wanted to interrupt him from anything clearly more important than him. But... Ted was still willing to make time for Felix? That was probably proof at least he cared. Even though Felix didn’t deserve it. He really was the best brother in the world, wasn’t he?
