@snailfan98, text day 152 - gently slides sad goat over

[inruins]

I've hesitated quite a bit on when or even if I should send this to you. You've got your hands quite full already, I am not unaware of that Doctor Watson. Given the fact we have only spoken briefly before I did not want to burden you.

But, my illness is not going away. It only seems to be progressing into worsened territory. If I am to turn to dust, I ask you to watch Frisk. Not alone of course, I am drafting similar letters to others.

I do not want you Frisk to be alone. Even if all you can offer is comfort or condolences to my child if I am to fall, I would appreciate it. If you are far too busy, I.. understand. The world does not revolve around Frisk or I. Others have much greater worries than a silly old woman worrying.

Thank you.

- Toriel

[Oh, Jesus... He'd seen her message about Frisk going missing, but also Frisk replying to it.]

Of course I'll look out for Frisk if it comes to it, but Ms. Toriel, you don't have to keep suffering these symptoms without any relief. I can request medicine from the Admin. It might not help completely, but it should ease some of your symptoms.

Could you tell me what they are now? I can try to find the right medicine for you. You're just as important as they are. Remember that they need their mum.

If you think it would help, I would not be opposed. I've been resting when I can and staying hydrated. Usually illness does not stay with me long.

I am routinely fatigued, dizzy, I seem to be running a mild fever most of the time and I have begun coughing up dust.

I intend to stay with Frisk as long as I can. I want this child to be safe as they can be.

I only bring this to you, because my kind are very delicate. I'm wary to admit as much, but monsters if saddened too greatly or ill far too long are more likely to turn to dust.

[... Dust?]

I'm going to recommend Robitussin for now. It should help to alleviate the symptoms, if not treat the cause of the illness. I'm so sorry you're going through this, Toriel. It's wretched to have on top of everything else.

Can I ask how you're doing outside the illness and this worry about Frisk? How are you doing?
