Blast From the Past: Challenge #01405-C309: Weird Encounters(1)
Frisk Meets....
- The Mystery Skulls
- Scooby Doo -- Anon Guest
Frisk signed, You're new. Hello.
The formally-dressed Skeleton in front of hir glared down at the child. He was apparently nodding to a beat that Frisk couldn't hear. He didn't speak, and that could be because he didn't have a lower jaw.
Frisk tried offering him some monster food. A candy that ze had saved from the bowl in the Underground.
This isn't Halloween, yet, kid said a voice that was not quite a voice.
Oh. So he was a ghost. I'm sorry, signed Frisk. I got confused. I know someone who can help. At that point, Frisk dialled up Blooky and Mettaton.
What are you doing?
It didn't take long, at least, not for Napstablook. Ghosts could be anywhere they liked in the space of a thought. Mettaton, emotionally attached to his robot body, had to travel through physical space, but... they all knew a boatman. Or boatwoman.
Between Blooky's shyness and Mettaton's showmanship, they got the new ghost talking about his issues, with Frisk playing the role of mediator. Mettaton kept using Frisk like a talking stick, and keeping contact with hir while he raved.
Ambassadoring wasn't always easy.
But Lewis (what an odd name for a ghost, it didn't even end in 'blook') detailed that he was only very recently dead. The remains of a human's determination, fuelled by revenge and more than a modicum of rage.
He was looking for his friends, who were still alive. The love he'd lost, and the one who... might... have killed him. Lewis was foggy on that point.
Frisk told hir ghostly friends to stay with Lewis. Ze had to find Arthur and Vivi and do some mediation. Ze was the Ambassador for all monsters, and this was hir job.
