hey, it's sans.

y'know, looking back? it's been pretty interesting.

i mean, look at us. we've got some basic amenities, power, even phones and the best internet you can make banging rocks together. we've got a community and everything, hey! nothing quite like the stale smell of desperation to really bring people together. but i've heard more than one of us ask what this war's really good for. for us.

makes a guy think about something other than starrs for a change. (yeah, see what i did there? you just dated yourself.)

anyway there's an actual point to this. see, being a good little soldier really tuckered the kid out, so frisk's gone on a vacation. some of you probably have questions. before you do, i want you to think about how much pressure kids should take. and maybe, y'know, lay off a little.

i'll keep you posted. see ya.

oh. it still seems weird but i guess as long as someone else is really there? having a buddy system is pretty important!

[ Intuition tells him that something is definitely weird. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what the root cause is, though. Who's to say that Frisk wouldn't grab a buddy and go shadow-clearing or exploring or something, right? It's the worst kind of vague unsettling feeling of all. ]

are you ok?

[ Trust your intuition. But the stone wall here is a subject change: ]

buddy system, y'know that reminds me of something.
couple times now we had some of us get in over our heads because we didn't have someone watching our backs.
maybe a buddy system ain't such a bad idea. y'know. for more than exploring more of the castle.
what's your take on it, buddy?

i think a buddy system is a great idea! we could use it for exploring or fighting or helping new people make friends. you know lots of things like that. kind of like how you helped me when i first came here!

teammates should watch out for each other.
