The Curious Case Of The Mysterious Ring
"Are you sure you don't remember?"
Geno gave Toriel a look. "I would surely have remembered if I got married, Tori."
"Hey, she was just making sure." Sans said in the former queen's defense.
Geno rolled his 'eyes' before holding up his left palm. After discovering the ring, he had went to the only friend he knew which could possibly help with the issue. However, his choice was proving to be terrible once he finally explained his situation to the goat-monster.
Toriel gently held Geno's hand in hers, examining the ring. Sans peeked over her shoulder, looking at the ring himself. "Well, whoever got you the ring must have paid a lot of money for it, Geno. Must be special."
Toriel examined it further. "Or maybe you may have purchased it and forgot it was on your finger?"
"Rings this expensive don't fall in the underground, nor randomly wind up in the save screen, Toriel." Geno sighed. "That's why I'm confused."
"Maybe a fairy magically thought you were hot and slipped it on in your sleep." Sans suggested.
Geno gave Sans a look. "...What?"
Sans shrugged. "It could happen."
"I don't think this is a joking matter, Sans." Toriel giggled, obviously amused.
"THEN WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING???" Geno exclaimed.
"I'm sorry! I can't help it!" She giggled.
A sudden battle cry rang through the home as a loud thump was made. "NGAAAAAAAAAAH-"
"There goes the front door." Sans snickered.
Toriel sighed. "I have to confront Undyne about that. I do not want to keep replacing doors.
On cue, the tall fish-lady walked in, a toothy grin on her face. "Hey! Frisk, Alphys, and I are planning to binge some anime! Anyone wanna join?"
"I'll pass." Geno answered.
"I'm currently busy." Toriel responded.
"And I have nothing better to do than to watch this weird stuff unfold." Sans replied, making himself comfortable in a nearby chair. He emphasized his laziness by allowing a tin full of popcorn to float from the kitchen to his lap, lazily letting the pieces float into his mouth as he watched Geno and Toriel.
Undyne raised an eyebrow. "What weird stuff?"
"Geno has appeared to magically acquired a marriage ring." Toriel blurted.
"I-IT'S NOT A MARRIAGE RING!" Geno sputtered. "IT JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE ON MY LEFT HAND!"
"Just so happens, ey?" Sans restates, allowing some more popcorn into his mouth. "Weird stuff."
"Wait, he's married?" Undyne slowly asked.
"Yes." Sans responded. The bucket suddenly shoved itself into Sans' face, causing him to freeze.
Geno glared at Sans. "No!"
Hearing the commotion, Alphys trotted into the room. "Someone i-is married?"
Sans removed the bowl from his face. "Geno is."
Again, the bowl was forced into Sans' face with magic from Geno. "NO I AM NOT." Completely ignoring Geno, Alphys' eyes lit up and a big smile crept onto her face. Geno recognized the look. "Oh god, don't say it-"
"I SHIP IT." Alphys squealed, causing Undyne to laugh.
A loud groan came from the scarfed skeleton as well as laughter from both Toriel and Sans.
"Who's the lucky lady~?" Undyne teased, smirking.
"That is the issue, Undyne. Geno doesn't remember." Toriel brings up, causing the pair of anime geeks to frown.
"W-Wait...So, y-you don't remember?" Alphys asked.
Geno shook his skull. "If I was married-AND I AM NOT-, I don't have any memories of anything besides the save screen."
The room fell silent as the news set in.
"...Well, you'll remember eventually." Sans smiled, a few popcorn kernels stuck to his face. "I usually remember stuff after some good laughs and good food. Don't stress about it."
Frisk then walked in, hearing the whole conversation. "...Geno...?"
Geno glanced over at Frisk. "Hm?"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure."
"If you are married, does that technically mean Sans is married too?"
Silence.
Sans and Geno looked at each other, both shocked.
"Oh. My. God." Undyne said, smiling the biggest smile on her face. "THAT'S HILARIOUS!"
Alphys and Frisk matched Undyne's grin, squealing with each other. Toriel laughed, thinking about the ridiculous thought.
Loud footsteps echoed through the hall as the tallest of them all barged into the room, his 'eyes' wide. "OH MY GOD BROTHER! YOU'RE MARRIED?!?!??!" Papyrus exclaimed, his jaw nearly hitting the floor.
Sans' eye-lights were completely gone, dark voids replacing them. His expression clearly portrayed how he felt : Perplexed and EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE.
With a mighty grip, Papyrus swept up his brother and twirled him around. "OH MY GOD, I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! YOU FINALLY MANAGED TO FIND SOMEONE PERFECT FOR YOURSELF! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME, BROTHER??!??"
As the chaos ensued, Geno silently crept into the corner of the room, allowing himself to slump down into it. He watched as the laughing and smiling faces of his friends celebrated the most ridiculous of things, obviously having fun nonetheless.
He smiled to himself. They looked so happy...
He then let his smile waver.
So...
Why wasn't he?
