The words hit in their chest, heavy and hard and making them stumble to a stop, trembling and confused. It's...it's just like the first time. They don't even need a weapon to make their point this time, all they have to do is glare and speak and the metaphorical line in the sand is drawn.
How did they forget? They...they can't have forgotten...
But they didn't know before, either. Their memories hadn't matched then, though trying to catch the specifics makes the static rise up in the back of Frisk's mind. Is this...like back then? A 'different' Chara, with their own timelines and their own Frisk?
It's not fair.
"You..."
No. They can't break down here, not like this. Swallow back the painful lump, push aside the crushing feeling closing around their SOUL. The details don't matter, they never mattered. All that matters is that they're here, their partner is here and now everything will be okay.

It has to.
"That's always been your name."
