[The feed opens to a small child--one that looks oddly similar to a certain child that was the subject of a few trials last month. Unlike Chara, however, this kid doesn't seem to have any anger bubbling under the surface, nor a glint in their eye like they're sizing up an opponent. In fact, they actually look somewhat...guilty?]

Um, hi everyone! This is Frisk. ...um.

[Frisk looks up at something away from the camera, then back down again.]

Uh, I know we got mail a while ago, but I was kinda...busy, and...um. I forgot to ask...

[They move the camera around to point at a ridiculously oversized, futuristic-looking canon leaning against the wall of their dorm--how it was dragged into the room is anyone's guess, but it certainly can't we wielded by this tiny kid.]

Um, th' captains gave this to me but it's not mine. If it's yours, you can come get it! My room is number five on Nomo deck.


( ooc: The canon actually belongs to Megatron, but people are free to try and convince Frisk it's theirs! He will be regaining proper custody of the gun, though. )

Um...

[Frisk bites their lip and hunches their shoulders a little.]

A couple weeks...? There was a lot going on...

[inruins]

[Toriel just sighs, covering her face with her free hand. Space is new and confusing, she didn't sign up for this.] Please try to find the owners of... weaponry sooner if you can, Frisk.

Why would anyone deliver weapons in the mail?

[gainedlove]

Someone's comin' now to get it! I'm just waiting.

[Frisk shrugs with a 'beats me' sort of look.] I dunno. I think stuff falls outta the Ingress sometimes? There's a big crate of Temmie Flakes they said is mine, too.

...there's no Temmies in there, though.

[inruins]

Good. I hope they don't have the need to use it any time soon. [Toriel is having an internal debate whether she should have a word with the gun's owner before dropping it for now.]

If there were, I would be rather concerned. Temmies from what I've heard can be... boisterous.

[Though mention of things falling out of Ingress makes Toriel pause, remembering something she had forgotten in the haze of settling in.] Ah- my dear. I had a photo of you with me, but I suppose it fell out as well? I certainly can't find it now.

If you see it, would you tell me?

[gainedlove]

Uh-huh. Me, too.

[Frisk giggles and nods, remembering that strange little village of theirs.] They're really funny! I like them, but I don't think people would like havin' a lot of them around the ship.

[Frisk perks up a little, listening closely, and nods with a worried little frown. It might be lost like their dagger and noodles were, but they don't want to mention that until they've checked around first.] I'll look for it! I'm sure it's around somewhere!

[inruins]

It would liven up the ship, certainly. [Toriel has heard more about temmies than seen. Any attempted discussion never quite got very far.] Though I think one or two of them is allergic to humans...? Better they stay at home.

Thank you, my child. It is the photo of when we moved into our home together. [The silly pose Frisk did for it always made it a favorite of hers. She laughs a little as she adds.] I kept putting my thumb in frame no matter what I tried.

[gainedlove]

[Any conversation with the Temmies begins and ends with confusion. The middle bits are the real magic.] Yeah, I game one of them hives by accident...I didn't have any medicine for them, but they weren't mad, I think.

I remember that one! Getting all the boxes inside took so long, too! [Frisk laughs as well, covering their mouth with their hand.] You just gotta hold the phone better, like I showed you!

[inruins]

Oh my, the poor dear. [The boss monster is a little concerned at that.] I'm glad they weren't mad at least.

[Toriel is more readily distracted by the shift of topics back to the photo. Finding herself laughing again as well.] I tried my best, my child. My hands are just much bigger than those cell phones. My hands are more made for kneading dough than taking pictures it seems.

[gainedlove]

You can do it! You just gotta practice some is all. [Frisk gives Toriel an encouraging little smile.] An' we can always get a bigger one later if we gotta.

[inruins]

A bigger one would not be remiss, certainly. You've seen my hands, dear. [She jokingly holds her free hand up, wiggling her padded fingers. More than happy to make a joke out of this, wanting to enjoy the moment with Frisk.]

Maybe you can show me those.. 'selfies'? [She's heard the word in passing back home, her curiousity is only piqued further with time.]

[gainedlove]

[Frisk grins and wiggles their own tiny hand back at the screen in mimicry, and then nods enthusiastically.]

Yeah! I can show you--um, after they come ta' get the cannon thing. They're really fun, Papyrus is really good at them!
