*The leftover heat of Toriel's sick beats fills you with Rap-energy.

  Empty Lvl 0 ?:?? (this)

  *Save

  *Return

  Frisk: 'Level 0? No wonder I lost to a flower. I should level up, so next ti-'

  *You realize that you should consider another option before-

  Frisk: 'Shut up nagging conscious!'

  *...

  *Return

  Frisk Lvl 1 ?:??

  Frisk: 'Neat.'

  *You move onward.

  Toriel: "Welcome to your home, innocent one. Allow me to educate you in the operation of the RUINS."

  *Toriel effortlessly solves the puzzle and moves to the switch.

  *Clik

  Toriel: "My child... I understand you are eager to help. But that tile was not needed to solve the puzzle."

  Frisk: "Which means you'll need to start over."

  Toriel: "...Yes my child. Please step off the tile."

  *You do so. And Toriel tugs the switch, lifting up the downed tiles.

  Frisk: 'I've got your pattern down, now, it's time to level up.'

  *...

  *Toriel moves to solve the puzzle, when her back is turned you dash forward. Plunging the stick into-

  *Fight

  *Act

  A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

  *Item

  *Mercy

  Frisk: "What the fudge?!"

  Toriel: "My child! Language!"

  Frisk: "Sorry Toriel. But what the fudge is this!?"

  Toriel: "It's your battle screen. Whenever an entity meets another with harmful intent a battle will begin. My child... did you-"

  Frisk: "There was a fly on your back!"

  Toriel: "Oh, my apologies my child, that makes sense."

  Frisk: "...It sure does."

  *You wonder if Toriel was always this inept.

  Frisk: 'Why would I wonder that?'

  Toriel: "Well, I suppose this is as good a time as any to teach you. As a human in the UNDERGROUND, monsters may attack you. You will need to be prepared for this situation. However, worry not! The process is simple."

  Frisk: "Don't worry Toriel, I've played enough Endless Ruin to know what to do. Tear and rip!"

  *Fight

  *Insult

  (then)

  *You tug at your lame-stripped shirt to showcase the non-existent strength in your biceps.

  Frisk: 'You little-'

  Toriel: "Exactly my child! A joke is a perfect way to defuse any hostile situation."

  Frisk: '...Alright, now I am wondering if she's always been this inept.'

  *...

  Toriel: "Though, I'm surprised you managed to navigate the menu so easily my child... I do not want to intrude, but have you already experienced combat before?"

  Frisk: '...It did come a bit too naturally, but I can't remember anything like this...or anything since my fall at all.'

  Toriel: "...My apologies my child, I didn't mean to intrude on your past. Let us continue with your education. Once a monster no longer wishes to fight they'll become spareable...You should have an option called 'Mercy'. Clicking that will allow you to spare the monster. Let us try it."

  *Fight

  *Act

  *Item

  *Mercy <

  *Spare

  *Flee

  Frisk: 'She's ignored both the Item and Fight options entirely. If I attack now I might catch her off guard. But if not...'

  *You remember the burnt ground that Flowey once stood on.

  Frisk: "...Probably best to play it safe."

  *Spare <

  *Flee

  YOU WON!
