how did the conversation with asriel go when telling him about all this, then? it can't have been easy for him to learn his existence came at that kind of cost
He took it rather poorly. As did I, when I was around his age. But I would have given my very life in order to ensure that he would live.
I didn't tell him that, of course — I told him that he was more than worth the eventual sacrifice. We loved him more than anything in the whole world. From the day he was born, he made our lives infinitely brighter, and Chara did the same, when they arrived. And, though that day would come eventually, it was still a very long ways away.
...Ha. It would seem that it still is.
