when you looked down to see chara, tears made their way to your eyes, purely out of relief. relief of her not being stuck in an endless void. chara looked up at you and more tears filled her milk chocolate eyes, you smiled past your welled up tears. the act making some of them spill, chara hugged you again and you bent over her, still sitting. f/c magick was still swirling faintly around the both of you and finally settled to a faint glow around your crystal that hung from your neck

after you pulled back from the hug chara looked into your f/c eyes and smiled, "you ready to go home chara?" she nodded excitedly and stood up, you chuckled at her enthusiasm and stood up swiftly, walking over to the two buttons you found that both of them were glowing so bright it almost hurt your eyes to look at them though you could still clearly see the button names

before you could press the Life button, chara grabbed your hand and when you looked at her you were surprised to find her having a slightly frightened expression. drawing your hand to her cheek you wiped away some excess tears "chara, is something wrong?" chara took a shaky breath and looked up at you with watery eyes

"it's just.....sans would remember the genocide runs, and i don't know if-" you put your fingers on chara's mouth to silence her "chara, i talked to sans yesterday and told him that it wasn't you that did all that stuff, don't beat yourself up about it, k?" chara slowly nodded but said "could we get dr. gaster too?" you smiled

"of course chara, let's hurry though" chara nodded and touched the Dreamland button but nothing happened you touched it as well and a bright trail of f/c shot out of your crystal and wound around chara and you both disappeared into gaster's part of Dreamland

you blinked as the trail of bright f/c released it's grasp from chara and re-entered your crystal, you turned and found gaster already shifting into existence near you "y/n, i didn't realize you would be back so soon, who is with you?" you smiled and side-stepped to reveal chara, who you were some-what blocking. chara smiled sheepishly up at gaster and said "i-it's been a while, Dr. Gaster" gaster chuckled and walked up to chara, kneeling on one patella to her level he smiled crookedly

"indeed it has been a very long time, and i'm afraid that i am no longer a 'Dr.' chara, please just call me gaster" chara seemed taken aback but nodded, suddenly the bright f/c trail shot out again from your crystal, this time split into two and wound around both gaster and chara then turned indigo, gaster and chara seemed shocked but when you felt the tug stronger than ever you grasped both of their arms you were teleported to the button room

the gray room was a certain change for gaster, who was used to the never-ending black and bleakness, though this was most likely a pleasant change, you pressed the Life button and when nothing happened the two indigo trails unwound from chara and gaster and snaked into your crystal, which turned indigo and you felt your eyes glow from the sudden surge of magick energy

the Dreamland creaked and split slightly from the overflow of magick you were thrusting onto it the trails exited your crystal and wound again around gaster and chara, who were right beside you "sis? you ok?" chara touched your arm but you refused to break your gaze on the button, both of your hands pressing firmly the fingers spread out. you were Determined to make this the last time you exited Dreamland alone, out of the corner of your eyes you saw fragments covered in indigo trails collide with gaster. surprised, gaster touched your other arm and you felt your magick grow ten-fold
