Thank you, friendly reminder in the form of a failed experiment, she was trying to not think about that fact. She does not voice that thought, but her movements pause for a second, expression faltering ( she does not want to show the effect those words have, but she’s never been very good at pretending. How weak ).
“Is that so…?” She murmurs, more to herself than the other, but still loud enough to be heard. “Anything else you, uh, want to get off your chest wh-while you’re here?”
“Now that you mention it, yeah!”
In this little Flower’s opinion, The so-called Dr. Alphys was probably the biggest idiot in the underground. At least most of the other idiots didn’t wreck other people’s lives. Some might say he was in no place to judge, he did a lot more than hurt other people. At least he was honest about what he was.
“You ever gonna tell your boss about what you did to his kid? Oh, who am I kidding? Of course, you won’t! If anybody finds out what you did, gosh I don’t even know what you’d do.”
He laughed to himself, but loud enough so she could hear it on purpose. Oh, he was bitter about a lot of things, but this was one of the worst. If anything, it made the scientist really special since she stirred such strong emotions in him even now. Looking up at her weak, pathetic face a memory stirred within him. A timeline before this one where he’d killed every single person in the underground except Alphys. She must have felt totally responsible for all of his actions. Oh, the look on her face when he SPAREd her in the end.
