♥ I love that we're collectively agreed that Tenna is Asriel's step-dad. 🥰

"Eh... circumstances. Does the why matter as long as the where is by your side~?" He gives her a silly little grin, eyes creasing closed for a moment.

His face flushes with pink but he doesn't protest, welcoming her touch and taste as if she's ambrosia on his tongue. A soft moan escapes, his tail wagging up a storm and his hands finding her waist.

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

"Well it does!" he responds cheerfully, giving her pinky a little squeeze before lowering his hand again and sticking his tongue out in return. "C'mon, tell me where the negatives are in getting to take my Holidoe for a lovely meal?"

» He glances at his HP bar, which is floating before him at an unsettlingly low level, just a suggestion of yellow remaining. "Actually, y'know what would be amazin' right now? A TV Dinner. You wouldn't happen to have one on you, would'ya?"

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

"Dad..." Asriel's expression shifts to a tired smile as he reaches for Tenna's hand. There's blood trickling down his chin but he doesn't acknowledge it, too busy trying to pretend he's okay. "Guess we should've watched more medical programs, aha. Bit of gauze and tape would fix this right up." »

"Oh man, I've missed singin' that," he states in a voice drenched with nostalgia. Seems the dork in him is a little distracted by the conversation topic. At least, until he notices the intensity in Dess' eyes. "I'll engrave your lyrics into my mind so your melody plays when I think of you~"

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

"You can hold me to it," Asriel responds with a grin, holding up a pinky in a hook formation. "Honestly, failing to prevent trouble but gettin' to take you out for dinner sounds like a silver lining to me."

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

His own tail was wagging too, hidden beneath his jacket at first, but it'd gradually wiggled its way out. "Act like I'm an undiscovered island and explore every inch of me," he responded with a teasing chirp.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

He poked his tongue out at the playful insult, then gently took her face in his hands and pulled her into a tender, yearning kiss. "Is it a jinx, or did I just apply wish logic? Now I've said it, maybe it can't come true."

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

"You never got to see me like this, did you?" he asked with a smirk. "It developed as I got older." Possibly more jaded, too, but he's not going to comment on that. Part of him has always been ready to rebel, buried deep inside and blazing beneath the surface.

♪ It turns out freedom meant nothing but missin' you, wishing I realised what I had when you were mine. I go back to December, turn around and make it alright; I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind... I go back to December all the time. ♪

"Always," he breathed. "I'm with you as long as you want me, even if I have to fight the Angel itself, I'll do so to stay by your side."

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

"Well, Dad is missing and Mom seems more interested in gettin' drunk and dancin' with the Smiley Trashbag than what her kids are doing," Asriel muses, his voice taking on a harsher tone during the moniker, "so I don't think she'd even notice unless Carol came to our house to tell her in person."

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

* You didn't ask for any of this. He lays his hand gently atop her own, curling his fingers around it. * All you wanted was to explore a new avenue, to find something undiscovered. There was no harm in that.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

* If she tries to stop you seeing me again, you will. * Honestly? I wouldn't put it past her. Even upon getting you back after all this time, I can imagine she'd step right back into the role of control freak. A roll of his amber eyes. * But I won't let that happen.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

He cradles her in his arms, holding her protectively against his chest. * This whole Dark World thing is bigger than all of us. Apparently Dad was exploring Dark Worlds way before we knew about them, maybe even before we were born.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

* I bet you would, little minx~ He grins and gently boops her nose. * When we were kids, I wasn't brave enough to tell your mom what I think of her, but I wouldn't hold back now.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

* Well... Asriel thinks about Noelle and Berdly. Noelle's never been happier, she and Susie seem to be getting on famously. But Berdly lacks his usual snark. He wonders what might've befallen his classmate in the Dark World. * People would've noticed the Fountains eventually, right?

110

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

* I'll say it to her face, I'm not scared of her. * (Anymore.) * Anyway, I see you still have the skill of sneaking up on me, Holidoe~

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

I'm just going to say it, Carol is one thing that does not bring joy around the holiday season.

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

* Hey. His voice was stern but expression concerned. Even if meant light-heartedly, he didn't approve of the self-deprecation. * You weren't stupid, you were seeking answers. I've stepped into shadows myself in the pursuit of knowledge.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

* Why did you leave? I... I built my entire world around you, and when you weren't there, it fell apart... [ He stares into her eyes with the utmost adoration. There's no accusation in his voice, he's not angry, simply seeking answers. ] * I love you, too. * More than I can express in words.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

He's calm. He's rational. He's not going to violently shake the salesman until answers fall out. Asriel takes a deep breath. Then another. "Okay." He's not going to violently shake the- Ohhhh, but he 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨 to. WALK AWAY. He's walking away. "Okay." Still walking. Good. "Okay."

010

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

"What did you sell to her?" Asriel pins his arms by his sides to resist the urge to grab Spamton. He isn't a violent man, but Dess was onto something before they disappeared, and he needs to know if it's related.

010

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

* Look, I... He pauses, then takes down the dialogue box. It limits his characters and he has a lot to say. "I heard you sell some pretty messed up stuff, Spam. Sharp stuff. Dangerous stuff. Dess... said they visited you before they disappeared."

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Blink blink. * Uh... Spam, do I need to call someone? * Do you need help?

010

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

* You've been on my mind since the moment you left my sight. [ He murmurs this, like a thought escaping rather than intentional dialogue. ] * I'm still uncertain if I'm dreaming or not, Holi-Doe. * I haven't been this happy in... years.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

* I should hope so! He's snickering. Looks like he's used to the reality of Darkners now. * They don't teach you these things in school.

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

[ He doesn't need telling twice. He cradles her face in his hands as he leans in and pulls her into a tender, longing kiss, eyes drifting closed. His cheeks grow damp and he hopes she doesn't notice, but he can't bring himself to care. He's too happy for that. ]

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

* They don't |scare| me, I'm just... * It's new to me, s'all I'm saying.

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

* Let's... not get into it. * What's important i- [ He blinks. Then reaches out and gently touches her shoulder. Then blinks again. Then lightly flicks himself on the wrist. He can feel it. He can feel her, too. ] * ...DESS?! [ Honestly not how he imagined their reunion going. ]

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

* Exactly! * Tenna's having kids with Mike, and I support that completely, but I did not realise he has other bodily functions too. * That is weird to think about.

100

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

* Children, I absolutely support. * Gonna admit, I was a tad surprised to learn that my TV can have bowel movements.

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

"He's doomed by the prophecy," Asriel responds disinterestedly. "We all are. No matter where you go, it's inescapable. But I'll take all the scrapes and scars if it means I get him back at the end of it."

Staring wistfully at the photograph, tail low and nose twitching softly.

"Did the stuff they said imply you shouldn't?" he asked curiously. December was hardly one to talk about Asriel's misdeeds, the goat was as good as gold aside from dropping out of college and searching the forbidden area of Hometown to find a missing deer. It'd worked, though.

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

"Not everyone has to like me, I shall exist regardless." He stretches his arms up above his head, then remembers the injury as it pulls. He glances down, tugging up his shirt and catching a glimpse of the healed skin. "Oh, Deci was here? I don't remember him dropping by. Never likes to stay..."

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

[ Huffing as she tears up his lovely scarf, holding her at arm's length to avoid being bitten. ] * Can't take you anywhere.

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

"Does that make me an uncle?" He remembers hearing about the pregnancy and dropping a congratulatory gift basket and card off at the studio. "Ooh, can I be a fun uncle? Responsible, but fun."

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

"Nah. I already have Kris, and Elly's like a little sister to me, so more siblings is totally fine." In fact, his tail is wagging at the idea.

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

"When you marry Ten, will you be like, my third dad?" He yawned softly, still exhausted from wrangling December earlier. "Because I wouldn't mind that."

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

"That's important, y'know. People don't stay." He inched closer to Mike and laid his head gently against the other's shoulder, careful not to spike him with his horns. "Thanks for looking after me."

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

[ He blinks rapidly, seeing stars for a moment, then summons a Red Scarf and wraps it around her(?) head. ] * No sight for you.

000

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

"Mike..." He smiled softly, picking himself up and wincing a little at the tug on his ribs. "You stayed."

𝐀𝐬𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 @backfromcollege.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

[ It won't work because you're the Knight and only Dess can make him swoon. ] * :)
