Chara to Frisk

Welp.

I mean I have to try and summarize their time in Sol as briefly as possible; because we've been there, done that, and also this will be an essay anyway. The outcome of all of that is Frisk- this Frisk, this particular Frisk, the Frisk from this timeline- is Home. I think eventually it's going to come to light that Chara wasn't all for ERASING themselves, and even now they're hurting a lot from the outcome of it- when it does, that's going to be ugly as all hell.

But for now, Frisk is their reason to bother getting up in the morning. The reason they don't just go get lost in the jungle, or wade out into a pack of tigersharks, or go find that black hole again. For better or worse, Frisk is their reason to exist, just as they were their reason to stop.

And god, are they worried about their Partner. Their usual anxiety is like, already a 10, but they've constantly been an 11 from the moment they arrived in LifeAftr. Little things, like getting more bandages, antiseptic balm- even just a copy of Kitchen- it's all about giving Frisk things that keep them here, in a way. Being bossy as all hell is just- even more of their protective streak rearing it's head in a really ugly way. Deciding they'll live here, they're going up this mountain together, Frisk is going to meet Sans again whilst they're around; it's all just them scrambling for some control over something no one has control over- how much Frisk is hurting.

Frisk is also currently...their major way of judging who is useful and who isn't, right now? People who like Frisk- useful. People who might be dangerous to Frisk- potentially still useful, but in no way are they allowed anywhere near their Partner at all.

It's so hard to say what their actual opinion of Frisk is because Chara's...*everything* revolves around them, currently. And that's liable to come to a head eventually, but anytime soon? Nah.
