Kin Introduction and Canon Call!
Greetings, my name is Aru and my only kin is Chara from the popular indie game 'Undertale.' I am very new to communities for kins in general, so am therefore unfamiliar with the terminology and common phrases, so please forgive my initial ignorance. I am searching for people who may have known me in my past life, because ever since I've learned of their existence, I've realised that I've been missing them.
General Information about my Past Self:
✦ My birth name was not Chara. I had a different name that I don't quite remember.
✦ I had straight red-brown hair, a choppy fringe (cut with baby scissors), eyes of a similar colour to my hair and was pretty tall. If I had to guess, I'd put myself at around 5'6.
✦ I could play the ukulele and often did so. I found a ukulele at the dump.
✦ I was an astronomy enthusiast. This may be where my choice of name came from, though I'm not entirely sure.
✦ I screamed at night and had a lot of nightmares.
✦ I was an only child on the surface.
✦ My favourite article of clothing was a baggy, yellow and orange turtleneck sweater.
✦ My favourite type of humour was poorly timed, dark and mostly consisted of puns (but then again, isn't this the case for most Undertale kins? Definitely some correlation there).
Memories that I have of People and Events:
*Due to my current life's habits, many of my memories are fuzzy. If they seem at all familar, please message me. I'd like to fill in the blanks. Please also reach out if even some of it seems familiar. Memories may not be entirely accurate.*
*T/W for mentions of death, depression and severe illness. Please be wary. *
✦ I fell into the Underground as an older child, perhaps around 9 or 10. It was not of a conscious desire to die, but rather as a means of escaping my situation. I lived in a town with people whose faces are muddled, but I think this is just me not wanting to remember that. I was afraid of heights, but jumped into the mountain and broke several limbs. I was found by one of the Dreemurrs, but my memory eludes me when I try to think which one.
✦ I was initially wary and cautious of everyone in the Underground and took a very long while to warm up to anyone. I recall not speaking for a week to anyone. I don't think I fully trusted anyone, even right to the very end. Well, maybe just the Dreemurrs and a blue girl (?) from Waterfall.
✦ I had a ukulele there. I played it -usually when I was alone- in a bedroom I shared with Asriel. The room was painted orange, with red furniture. Parts of it were blue. My bedsheets were red and pink, and Asriel's were a warm colour I don't recall. We had a whole lot of fairy lights that always kept falling down until we got them nailed down.
✦ I used to like to go to Waterfall on my own. The glowing twinkles were so beautiful.
✦ I had a close friendship with Asriel, who I grew to consider as a brother.
✦ The aroma Toriel's butterscotch cinnamon pie is prominent in my memory. I sensed it twice in this life in random situations where there definitely was no pie. It's sweet and light and reminds me of warmth.
✦ I liked to drink tea with Asgore and Gerson when they met once a week. Sometimes other people would join, but I usually didn't feel comfortable enough to speak when they did. My favourite kind was cinnamon. Or maybe mint.
✦Asriel was an incredible crybaby. He liked to sing. Very rarely, I'd play the ukulele as he sang. He had small horns at the time I died.
✦ I suffered depression, but there was no way to help me. Monsters don't often get depression. They are made of different stuff than humans. It takes a lot to break a monster down to that point.
✦ I died when I was about 13, possibly 14 or 12. I felt increasingly out of place with the monsters as I grew older and more aware of the situation. I ate a bunch of buttercups without telling anyone of my plan. The day before my death, I alerted Asriel of the true nature of my 'illness.' He was devastated and wanted to tell his mother and father. I told him that I'd never properly heal, so all he could do was free the monsters for me. He agreed and I died. It was incredibly painful. I had to shit blood.
✦ Everything after that is fuzzy. My last memory is a vague awareness of existing as one with Asriel, then crying together as he died.
✦ I remember the face of an extremely curley-haired Frisk. I recall floating after them, so perhaps I was a ghost?
If any of this sounds familiar, please reach out to me. I miss my family. Particularly Asriel. My messages are always open to anyone.
