Holly grinned at Will and Dustin's stunned expressions. She pushed the clump of nerdiness across the kitchen island, in front of the two boys. "Enjoy."
"Oh my God," Dustin muttered in sheer awe.
"I... Thank you!" Will, equally stunned, managed to say.
"No problem," Holly said with a smile.
The two ecstatic boys grabbed everything as best they could and ran back to their group of friends, eager to play their favorite game. Their fellow party members were equally surprised, Mike in particular shouting a curt "Holy shit!" that everybody in the room heard.
By then, the ordering process was complete. Lou's phone was returned to her. Now, all they had to do was wait for the poor, poor employees of the restaurant to finish preparing the food. And for one hour, that is exactly what everyone did.
"Aw, Abby, come on."
"Shush, Mir! It'll be fun!" Abby said.
"Wait, what are you making us do?" Priya asked.
Miriam sighed. "Abby's about to gather up all the girls in the room and talk about crushes and stuff."
"She's already doing it," Mei said, all three friends turning to see Abby running around the room, interrupting the conversations of every female she came across.
Within minutes, Abby had gathered a group of girls from several different universes. Alphys, Uraraka, Meg, Chiaki, Kaede, and Mina joined the four Turning Red girls in a small circle on the floor. Abby, of course, had asked several others, but many of them declined her offer.
"So, um," Alphys said, "w-what are we doing, exactly?"
Abby grinned maniacally. "Discussing love."
"Oh no," Nanami murmured.
"I did not agree to this," Miriam said.
"Too bad!" Abby's grin only grew larger. "So...anyone have a crush?"
"I do."
Every girl turned to see Ashido, her hand raised and her head lowered in embarrassment.
(rest of this scene, andrew getting the food via portals, everyone gets what they ordered, briefly intro the next group)
"So," Monika awkwardly started, "we're all...?"
"Aware," Flowey said.
"Erm, right." Monika took a deep breath. "Once I...knew, I quickly learned how to edit the code of my game. I deleted almost everything besides myself and the player, like you saw in the video."
Flowey sighed at the expectant stares the other two gave him. "I used to be able to create SAVE points. Every time I came close to death, I would reset time back to the day I...bloomed. Let's go with that."
"why can't you now?" Sans asked, his voice emotionless and cold.
"Frisk," Flowey said. "When they fell, they became the most determined soul in the Underground. They took the ability from me."
"What about you, Sans?" Monika asked.
"i'll be honest, i don't think i'm the same as you guys." Sans shoved his hands in his pockets. "ever since the kid fell, i'd get these weird...visions, i guess. and a lot of deja vu. now, of course, i have a better idea of why, but...yeah."
Monika mindlessly nodded, deep in thought. "Flowey, (some statement idk)."
