( It hasn't been long since their corruption skyrocketed and became out of control, but it feels like it's been weeks at this point. So many awful things had happened to them at once -- all of them becoming a catalyst to helping their partner fulfill their goals and seek power.

They haven't been doing well since. They've used the moondrops to bring their corruption level to a far more normal level for them, but what's done is done.

They don't say much when they address the network. It's a simple, but sincere message. )

i'm sorry

I know we don't know each other that well, but if you need to talk, I'd be happy to listen.

[ oh frisk. ]

Do you want company?

[ this can be . . . about anything, and falco doesn't know enough of the pair to connect one with the other. ]

I don't know what this is about, but
We can talk, too.

This seems like fun. I'll bite. Why are you sorry? You know people are going to ask.

[ .. oh no.

It hurts almost instantly, seeing that username coupled with that message. Despite the fact that Chizuru still isn't the best at communicating this way, she's already scrambling to write a message in return as quickly as possible. ]

what are you sorry for

[ Comfort can come in a moment - when Chizuru figures out how to angle the comfort to fit the hurt that must be plaguing them. ]

[stilljustyou]

( They answer honestly. )

i dont know

[stilljustyou]

( It's... nice. People who don't even know Frisk want to help. It takes them a moment to respond. )

thank you

if you hurt people and couldnt take it back after
what would you do?

[stilljustyou]

thank you

you're really kind

[stilljustyou]

why does it seem fun?

[comecatchthesehands]

Better than boring old nothing. Seeing people say sorry for nothing is usually because they're guilty of something that isn't a big deal. What'd you do?

[stilljustyou]

( Oh, it's Chizuru... If Frisk had a friend that they especially felt comfort in speaking to, it was her. She was always so warm and reassuring towards them, but they know that now isn't the time to expect anything like that at all. )

i helped my partner

we both ended up hurting a lot of people

but... it isn't like before

we can't take it back.

[stilljustyou]

i don't think it's like that here
a lot of really bad things happen
sometimes because of other people

i did something i cant take back

[comecatchthesehands]

It's like that here. It sounds like I'm right anyway. If you can't take it back, then you can't. What's the problem? I can't tell you if you're an asshole if I don't know what you did. And from what I heard, being sorry means admitting whatever you're sorry over.

[stilljustyou]

( Those are words that Frisk takes to heart. They felt like they had tried their best to make up for what they had done the last time they had chosen a similar path. But, they don't know if they can make up for any of what they've done here. )

but i can't say sorry to the people i hurt

a lot of the people who lived here are gone

[comecatchthesehands]

[This poor soul.]

Then who cares? They don't know any different. If you can't say you're sorry, then it doesn't matter anymore. Likely it didn't to begin with.

[stilljustyou]

that's not true

even if they don't know, it doesn't make the apology less meaningful

[comecatchthesehands]

Who are you apologizing to then? Who cares who you hurt if no one knows anymore. Don't focus on things that don't matter. Tell you what, as the stranger on the internet, I absolve you of all your sins. Is that better?

You sound like you're in pain. And I think everyone can do with more kindness, especially after last month.

[danserai]

It might be good not to be alone.

[ the age-old question even he asks sometimes— when he remembers. he considers what he could tell himself when he was at a low point, or with what's happened until now. ]

I'd do everything not to hurt anyone else going forward. Whether it was a mistake you made that led to it or if you mean for it to happen and had a change of heart. I always go back and ask myself how it happened, and what I could do now so it doesn't repeat.

It's not that easy, and it could be scary, right?

[tealeafs]

why did you end up hurting a lot of people

[ That's mostly what she's curious about here. There must have been some sort of circumstances. After all - Frisk has always seemed like nothing but a good kid to Chizuru. Someone who tries to help out others when they're in trouble. Someone who tries to be responsible with their powers, especially when said powers are really powerful.

So she can't just imagine them hurting other people for the heck of it. Never. ]

( Peter has no idea that the demon that lives in his body actually helped Chara, too. He came home with blood under his nails and some of his clothing singed as though with fire, but he can't remember any of what happened during Chara's massacre.

And he doesn't recognise the username, either. Peter still keeps such a low profile in this place; there are many people he's not familiar with. ...But it doesn't matter that he doesn't know this person, or that he doesn't know the exact context of this, because those two words catch his heart as though someone's squeezing it in their palms. Those are the two words he's constantly whispering, himself. )

I know you don't know me, but whatever happened... I'm sorry, too
I know what it's like

For whatever it's worth, I think it's brave of you. To say sorry like this
Sometimes I'm too scared to

[stilljustyou]

... okay

thank you. you're a good friend.

[danserai]

I try at least.

[stilljustyou]

you are

where would you like to meet?
