[your best friend] intensifies (open)
Who: Flowey and YOU!
When: B1: D1-6!
Where: Outside of his festive Children's Entertainment Booth!
What: Just you and Flowey, meeting each other and making friends!
Warnings: Flowey is (SPOILER) not nice.
[ Back here, after signing his contract, Flowey’s gone and raided the performer’s storage (which he had to burrow to find over and over again). He’s made dozens of balloon animals. Perhaps in one of his years resetting, he did it to stave off boredom. How he does it with no arms, absolutely no one can guess. “HOWDY! - ｆｌｏｗｅｙ” Is written on each and every indistinguishable bipedal animal that could resemble an annoying dog and he’s handing them out with a happy greeting! ]
“Howdy! You’re not the ugliest person on the planet, but you better hope he doesn’t die! Nice to meet you!”
“Howdy! You look like a mistake only the chaos of the universe could make, pleased to make your acquaintance!”
“Howdy! You’re kind of like Rapunzel, but instead of letting your hair down, you’re letting everyone down in your life! It’s so good to make new friends!”
“Howdy! I’m Flowey. Flowey the Flower! I’m an experiment gone wrong and I’m still less of a mistake than you! Have a nice day, happy to finally say hello!”
[ Do you… come up and get your custom insult?
Or do you defend the honor of someone he just insulted? ]

...Even if it meant doing what Zarc did. ....Leo destroyed one dimension. He started destroying another. And after a while, he had all of them.
...but because of what he did, Zarc's pieces started to come back together too. By the time they did, Leo had already started to put Ray back together-they were nothing but a ghost, in a pocket dimension he made.
...But Zarc... ...Was Zarc, using the last piece as his body. ...He fused with his dragons again, and started to destroy everything again. Everyone tried to fight him, shouting for the piece of him that they knew, but...
[...She trails off, and looks to the flower.] ....I could hear Ray.
...When Ray wasn't together again... ...I watched Leo tell everyone, about what happened in the 'original world'. ...He was...full of hate. ...So much hate, that it hurt until I couldn't think anymore, and everything was dark, [she admits, looking to the ground almost with frustration at her prior weakness.] ...When I woke up though, I could hear her voice. She wanted to help-because she knew how to stop Zarc...and even though her Dad had the cards from her pieces back, she knew he couldn't stop her.
...But she didn't have a body. And no one else could hear her..!
[Evidently, personal as it is, she's not merely not Zarc Or Ray.
She's neither.]
...I followed her voice, until I could find the way to where her ghost was, [She says quietly.] ...And...since she couldn't have a body to fight Zarc, I said...
...She could use mine. Because I didn't have a self. ....so.... ....There was room.
no subject
So you stopped existing?
[ He's intrigued by all of this but this is the only question he can ask. ]
no subject
...But.... ....if that happened again, everything would just repeat, right? Everyone would forget, except Zarc. And Zarc would come back together, and destroy everything again.
....So I pushed Ray out of my body.
And I pulled Zarc into mine, so that everyone else could stay alive.
...The dimensions hadn't finished merging again... ...so when I brought Zarc into my body, I took the Natural Energy Cards-and I made everything go faster. I held Zarc tight-so that instead of us breaking apart....the dimensions would stay the same, and like all the pieces Zarc and Ray made before, I'd become a baby, and forget everything.
And he'd be with me-so that he could grow up, and remember what he used to be like.
....but that didn't happen, I guess. [She is quiet, for a moment or so-resting her head on her knees, half shrugging.]
...Someone made a contract to 'save me'. ...So the Ringmaster pulled us out before I reset like that.
She pulled Zarc out.... ....and put him away to be killed later, [she adds, eyes half-lidded as she reflects on the unfortunate memory.]
....but.
...I didn't want Zarc to die. ...When we fought, Ray and I, I felt only hate from him. Hate, with something really far underneath.
...but when I held him inside...
...he was scared. And lonely. ...and...sorry.
...I think, when I did that... ...he finally remembered, everything that happened.
....I asked the Ringmaster, if there was anyway we could make sure he didn't die. If he could have another chance.
...She said, I could make a contract. She didn't like it-she didn't say that, but I know she didn't like it.
...but... ...Zarc needs to be able to start again, I think.
....because then this time... ....he can do what he wanted to do, and make people happy, instead of hurt. He can be with his dragons, and they can all be happy.
...For real, this time.

[ * ASRIEL remembers a voice...
Save.
Save.
Save.
no subject
That's a good story. It's sad, but it doesn't have to be happy to be good.
[ Flowey quietly learns kinship ]
no subject
.... She manages a small smile.] ....Yeah.
...Sometimes, even if it's sad, it's still okay.
[...........................] ....hey.
....Is it ok....to give you a hug again?
1/2
[ He actually wants one now? This is strange... it's melancholy but also positive, so Flowey clings to his one positive feeling like a koala. ]
Go ahead.
[ He'll wait until after she's hugged him. ]
no subject
I didn't tell you my name, did I? Funny, I usually introduce myself at the beginning of all these things! I guess I just forgot.
[ hint hint. ]
My name is Asriel. But... only you can call me that, okay? It'd be bad if other people found out about it early.
no subject
Rather, introduce himself again. She's bright enough to catch that, so...] ...Asriel? [She repeats-just to make sure she's saying it right. ...And she nods.] ...ok! ...I'll keep it secret, then.
...My name... ...is Reira, [she continues, giving him hers.] ...I guess....it wasn't always my name. But I don't know the one I would have had before it, and 'Reira' sounds like my brother's name.
...So I like it, I think.
no subject
Thanks. [ Hopefully now she knows he's a ~prince~. He quietly hopes she prepares to be underwhelmed that at the end of his quest, all he is is a tiny goat child. ]
It's a nice name. My parents stuck their names together to make mine. They're dorks.
no subject
....For niisama....and for his sister, Ray, [she continues, tilting her head,] ...They took 'Rei' from 'Reiou', or 'Leo'....
...When my 'mom' took me from where I lived before, she said I would be 'Reira' because of that. 'Rei' was the same as niisama's name, 'Reiji'.
[Don't worry about her being underwhelmed, Flowey-if anything she'll probably be glad to see that he's Made It, by then.] Ji means...'child', [she continues, nodding.] And...'Ra' is...
...'Scrap'.
[And 'Rei'.... ....Means 'Nothing'.]
no subject
[ It's like he suddenly just decided, as if that's a thing people can just change. ]
But it can't be too different, or it'll be weird. But you shouldn't let people call you scrap, even as a subtle thing or a name-meaning thing. I don't know your language though. Better yet, get rid of 'Ra' all together! You can be Rei. Or pick a better meaning letter in place!
no subject
...Japanese wasn't my first language, though. There was another one, but I don't know what that one was called.
[She wasn't really Aware of things at the time.]
no subject
What about Reisa? It's... the next letter in the alphabet, so...
[ Flowey doesn't know, but there's actually a good meaning behind it! ]
no subject
....They're better than 'scrap', though. [All of them are.] ...It still sounds like niisama's name, too.... [And 'different from nothingness' could be an interpretation. Which is pretty Good.] ...I like it.
no subject
[ He seems cheery about this... probably thanks to proximity. Kinship is nice, he's gonna latch onto it as long as he can. ]
no subject
[And....] ....Hey.
....Did you know...? ....You're feeling a New thing, now.
...It doesn't hurt.
no subject
[ He wonders if the feeling will fade with proximity... hmm... or if he meets new people he feels the same thing toward, he'll get it again? ]
Prolly wrap this in a tag or two from here -chinhands tho...-
....We can find a word for it, one day, I think.
[...They can both work on it. Together.]
no subject
But yeah.
[ they've earned it. ]
that's a wrap, as I remember Someone Is Sick lfgdjkhsgf
For now though.... ....it's probably safe to just sit together a little while longer, before someone has to go back to Bedrest.]
