Of course they do. Chara isn't chained to Frisk here, not like how it was back home. They can do whatever they wish without anything to tell them no. It's not like Frisk can force them to.
...right?
A tiny, desperate part of them wants to say no. To refuse to let Chara out of their sight, to hold on and beg them to stay. They can't stand the thought of Chara leaving again, they don't want to be alone without the one person that could understand. It felt like part of their SOUL disappeared that night Frisk realized Chara was gone, and the idea of having to watch them walk away--
They can't. They can't lose Chara again.
...
But...
Frisk swallows thickly, and tries to ignore how heavy the locket around their neck feels.
