[When Frisk comes onto the network this time, it's with a much less agreeable expression upon their face. Their hair is incredibly rumpled, and they rather look like they just slept in their clothing last night.]

You gotta stop hurting people! It's not fair, he already got punished, an' he didn't DO anything, an' he was hurt an'...!

[Frisk's face screws up, and they're clearly holding back on some frustrated tears.]

H-has anybody seen Rinzler? He was...I-I wanna make sure he's okay.

[pleasereset]

[Oh no...]

Frisk, what happened?! Are you okay? What's going on with Rinzler?

[gainedlove]

I'm okay, but I...I dunno what happened to Rinzler! I saw him bein' attacked, and I tried to stop it, but...I wasn't strong enough. They made me sleep, an' I couldn't fight it.

[pleasereset]

He was attacked and now he's missing?

[Asriel feels his chest tighten at that. Was it someone who wasn't satisfied with Rinzler's trial sentence? Still, Asriel can't keep the worry out of his voice.]

Frisk, where are you? I'm gonna go look for him.

[gainedlove]

I'm in my room--I-I wanna go with you! I wanna make sure he's okay, too.

[And they don't really want to be alone right now.]

[pleasereset]

[Asriel's already heading in that direction.]

I'll be over there in a little bit, okay?

[And in a few minutes, Asriel reaches Frisk's room. He'll knock on the door and wait.]

[gainedlove]

O-okay!

[When Asriel knocks he won't have long to wait before the door slides open. Frisk pauses for just a moment before reaching to hug Asriel and cling on with a little shade of desperation.]

[pleasereset]

[The hug catches him off guard, but within seconds it's returned.]

Thank you, Frisk. For helping Rinzler.

[He really means it. Asriel pauses a little, not really sure if Frisk is hurt or not.]

Did you get hurt? Do you know who took him?

[gainedlove]

[Frisk sniffles and nods, holding on a little tighter.]

It was...P-Peter an' Alice again. I didn' get hurt. But I couldn't...

[Frisk's breath hitches with a sob.] It's not fair!

[pleasereset]

It's okay, Frisk. We're gonna find Rinzler, okay?

[He hopes. He really hopes Rinzler is okay. He was hurt before, was he gonna get hurt more?]

... We gotta stop them from hurting Rinzler more than he already is.

[gainedlove]

Y-yeah.

[Frisk nods again, hiccuping a little bit as they try to clamp down on their tears.]

I-I...I really tried, Asriel, I promise I did! Sh-she had magic, I couldn't...!
