On the roof of Toriel-sensei’s school, Chara gazed out across the city’s skyline. Their green and yellow sailor fuku fluttered in the breeze of the cool autumn afternoon. During lunch, this is where they would go when they wanted to be alone. Suddenly, a vibrant red rose blocked their view.

“Good afternoon, Chara-san.” It was Frisk-senpai, sporting their dark blue gakuran. It was just like Frisk to avoid wearing the school’s official colors, the goofball. They often did silly things like this at school. How they managed to do this under Toriel-sensei’s nose escaped Chara.

“Good afternoon…Senpai.” Chara practically spat the last word. Frisk flinched.

“I know what you’re trying to do Senpai,” Chara said. “I heard all about you. How you flirt with anything that moves.”

Frisk smirked. “What can I say Chara-san? I like to get Frisky…” Frisk lifted their hands and wiggled their fingers in demonstration.

Chara scoffed in disgust. “You sound more like Sans-san every day! I expected better from someone raised by Toriel-sensei!” They spun around to leave, but Frisk grabbed Chara’s wrist.

Chara looked back, ready to tell them off when they froze. Frisk looked more serious than Chara has ever seen them be before. It was nerve-racking.

“Chara-san…I know what people say about me. It’s true…I…often flirt to get out of awkward situations…” Frisk stroke one of their cheeks in an attempt to hide their embarrassment. “I wish I could be more like you, Chara-san.”

“Senpai!?” Chara said, their voice squeaking of embarrassment.

Frisk smiled. “You always seem so confident, Chara-san. You treat everyone with the same indifference, as though you don’t have to put up an act to deal with anyone. It doesn’t make you popular, but at least it makes you real. More real than I can ever be.”

Frisk lowered their gaze. “I act differently with every person. I act the way I think they want me to act. I use to think I did it to spare them any social anxiety they might have felt around me, but lately I realized I did it for me. I wanted them to like me. I needed them to like me. I couldn’t stand the thought of being alone.”

Chara was caught off guard as the watched Frisk wiped a lone tear from their eye. Frisk smiled up at Chara. “I tried doing that with you too, you know? I tried everything I could think of. I tried complimenting you. I tried taunting you. I even tried flirting with you! But nothing I did worked! Then I realized, it wasn’t working because you were being yourself with me, while I was being a chara-ature of myself around you.”

Frisk gave a sympathetic smile as Chara groaned loudly. “Sorry, spending years with Sans does things to your pun instincts. It’s a force of habit at this point.” Their serious demeanor returned. “But it doesn’t make it any less true. I want to be me around you Chara-san, if you let me.”

“Sen…pai…” Chara managed, their face a deep red. They looked deeply in each other’s eyes letting everything sink in. They both knew what would come next. Chara closed their eyes in anticipation as Frisk pulled them in close.

And then they smooched!

Kiss!

Kiss Kiss!!!

“Alphys?”

Alphys yelped and spun around from her notepad to see two children in her lab: one that looked disinterested and the other that looked apologetic.

“Frisk! Chara! What are you two doing here!?” Alphys said as she laughed nervously.

Frisk gave her a patient smile. “…You asked us to come. Remember? To make sure Chara’s temporary body was functioning properly?”

“Oh. Oh! Yes! Of course!” Alphys said as she started to sweat a little.

Chara raised an eyebrow. “What could the good doctor be writing down so frantically that she forgot we were coming over?” They asked.

“Just…some…notes!” Alphys said babbling. “About how you two are functioning as two separate entities!”

She observed that she could have phrased that last part better as Chara narrowed their eyes. “May we read these observations?”

Alphys quickly hid notebook in her desk’s file storage compartment and locked it. “Look at the time! We have to start the tests, NOW!” Alphys shouted as she rushed the two kids into the next room.

She really hoped that she didn’t die today.

Here’s that fluffy ending I told you about, inspired by the anime post you made about Chara’s expectations vs. reality. I modified it to be more of a fanfic shipping by Alphys! I figure this takes place the following day, when the news spreads like wildfire!
