[left on sans' door just before the event ends]

[battlefront]

note that finds its way into one of his notebooks; whenever you'd like him to find it really

[unvoid]

[It is curious. This note never existed as of five minutes ago, and it has always never existed, but it seems to have inserted itself into one of his notebooks regardless.]



[And below it, in small, cramped text:]
goodbye.

[mypartnerintime]

Sooooo..

awkward

[punful]

[Wow, fuck. He'd been doing a pretty good job at forgetting about all of this but, uh. Heh, wow, here it is, huh?]

hey, max. you make out okay back in the labyrinth?

[This is going to be easier over text, at least.]

[mypartnerintime]

[Well he did say they had to talk about it afterward... and she did take the liberty of using text precisely because it'd be easier.]

If you stretch the definition of "okay" then yes.

You?

[punful]

i turned into a sloth.

i had to look up what a sloth was after the fact haha

i had no idea what i even was at the time

did you know that sloths move so slowly that sometimes they grow mold

like holy crap. that's perfect for me. that's basically just me in animal form

i wonder if skeletons can grow mold...

it was really weird having skin and organs and fur though. not a fan.

[mypartnerintime]

Ok thats actually kinda hilarious!!

Maybe youve found your spirit animal. I'm gonna hope that's not the case tho cuz I was a mouse.

[punful]

mice can be very determined

i knew one that hacked an electronic safe one time

[He is literally serious about this.]

[Haha shitposting so he can avoid talking about any of this for a while longer.]

[mypartnerintime]

[Hey she's willing to play along. He's the one who mentioned talking after the event- and while she wants to know what's really going on, she kinda doesn't want to talk about herself, at least.]

How do you know it was a mouse and not a very small mouse-like monster?

[punful]

nah, it was definitely a mouse

mouse monsters are bigger

there were a few living in snowdin

[mypartnerintime]

Huh. Weird.

[...And this continues to be awkward.]

[punful]

trust me mice monsters aren't the weirdest ones we've got.

[He's wondering how much longer he can sustain this.]

[mypartnerintime]

that'd be skeletons right?

[Wow look at all this joking around going on.]

[punful]

[He could say Moldsmals or Temmies or...ugh, Jerry...but that would mean having to explain what those guys even are and...he kinda doesn't have the energy.]

definitely skeletons

walking around, nothing but bones

buncha weirdos

best to avoid 'em all

[mypartnerintime]

[They're not so bad

Give them a chance]

Heh yeah weirdos.

I think they do what they can though

[punful]

well one of them sure does

the other one not so much

[mypartnerintime]

[Pretty sure she knows which is which in his mind.]

Alright Sans

Wanna tell me what's going on?

[punful]

ha didn't think i could dodge forever.

[Heh.]

can you answer me a question real quick?

your rewinds. do they affect all of wonderland?

or just your personal timeline?

[mypartnerintime]

[She herself is at the let's just get this over with point.]

I got zero idea

I'm not even sure I get what you mean.

[punful]

if you rewind, does the whole world rewind?

or is it just you and the stuff around you?

[mypartnerintime]

[This is making her feel really insecure.]

...idk :T

[She tried to understand it, Sans. She really put all her mind to it. But time travel still confuses the hell out of her. And questions like does it affect the whole world are things she never even began studying.]

...do you want me to try? Now?

[punful]

[She doesn't even know. Damn. Why do kids keep ending up with god-like powers without even knowing how they work or how to properly use them?]

nah the data would be irrelevant

with this conversation i've become part of your personal timeline in a sense

so i'd be affected by a rewind either way

and using one at random would probably be pretty dangerous

[...Yeah. He's gonna have to tell her.]

there's something you should know

about what happened with me and your mirror

[mypartnerintime]

[Sorry Sans... she really didn't ask for any of it.]

Ok.. level with me. What is it?

[punful]

[There's a delay as he sorts his thoughts and thinks of how best to say this.]

we weren't fighting really

i think she just wanted to test me

she knew about what sort of magic i could use, what i was capable of

including the teleporting

she planned the whole thing i think

it seemed like her goal was to find out where i'd teleport and then get the drop on me by rewinding to before that

so she put me in a situation where i'd have to teleport

she kinda tried to shove me off the roof haha

but i don't think either of us realized that it




what she did is she rewound and sent me backwards through a teleport, if that makes sense

but uh space isn't supposed to bend like that

and you're especially not supposed to be aware of it when it does

that's why my eyesocket cracked

the left one has some kinda weird properties that i can't really get into

so i think that's why it happened that way



and

as monsters go i'm pretty weak

very weak

so if something like that ever happened again i

think it would kill me

[mypartnerintime]

[Max's reply also comes after a delay she she reads and rereads his messages, trying to take in all the implications.]

You mean every time I rewind I might end up killing you?? If you also teleported?
