[Frisk opens their hands, palms up and facing the ceiling. Hold them out limply, gently, in front of them. It is the same kind of simple offering Chara makes. Sitting beside them on a bed. Extending a hand but not moving in to grasp another without the explicit or implicit permission, the nod of a head or an intake of break or a meeting of eyes.
But their hands are open and waiting for theirs, should they require them. They're bandaged a little, and broken. But they still work.]
Why's "someone" gotta be you?
[Logically, they know why. Consequences, and so on and so forth. They're meant to hold people accountable. They remind people of their promises, tell people when they've gone astray. So why should they skirt their responsibilities? Avoid ascribing the same consequences to themself?]
You didn't mess it up, Chara. And it doesn't matter if they did something differently. They're not you.
[Frisk's SOULmate. Frisk's partner.
Frisk's Chara.]
Why does one Frisk get to be a Boss Monster and I don't? Why does one Frisk fall first and I don't? I don't know if that's...our fault. If we can really be to blame for that.
