Diary Entry 6, Oct. 2
Dear Diary,
I'm back on work again. Boss wouldn't let me off of work for more than a week. The only reason he did so was because it was absolutely necessary. I had to help Lust break in to our home so that he could get used to living with us. Because apparently, he's gonna be staying for awhile.
Staying at my sentry posts is boring now after so many days spent with Lust. All I hafta do is sit there. Nothing ever happens. Boss doesn't even come by to check on me any more, so there's no point in really being there.
After the 3rd day on the job with Boss for some reason missing my "make sure Sans is working" checkup, I decided I had enough. I teleported from my Waterfall station directly into our living room.
I knew where Lust would be. Ever since I went back on the job, Boss has been leashing the violet-eyed skeleton to a hook in the wall in the corner of our living room, to make sure that he doesn't escape.
He had seemed indifferent while Boss hooked him up, but I recognised that face. It was the face I made when something was making me panic, but I had to hide it so that Boss wouldn't get mad at me.
I walked up to him casually, trying to seem cool and offhand-ish. From his lack of expression, I guessed he wasn't really impressed. Welp, it was worth a try.
"Heya Lust." I said, making myself at home next to him. He didn't flinch or move away or give any indication that he cared. Instead, he regarded me before looking back off at the wall, which was what he had been previously doing before I came in.
"Jeez, tough crowd." I muttered to myself, pulling my knees up and my arms behind my skull. I leaned against the wall next to Lust, letting out a sigh as I closed my sockets and relaxed. God, it was nice not having to sit on a stool staring at nothing for hours.
We didn't talk, just sat there together. Me, relaxing. Him, I wasn't really sure. I couldn't tell if he was uncomfortable by my presence, uncomfortable at the situation, uncomfortable at being a prisoner, or just bored. He was similar to me in some ways, but still very different. I still couldn't read him the majority of the time.
After a few hours of complete silence, I finally stirred from my nap, checking the time. My shift would be over soon. I should head over so it at least seemed like I was there the whole time.
Getting up, I glanced over at Lust, who still hadn't moved from his position. It wasn't that he was exactly rigid, just that there was an air about him that suggested he wasn't at all comfortable with his surroundings. I wouldn't be surprised, given the situation.
I turned away, magic enveloping me as I slipped through time and space. As the blackness cleared, I could see that I was back at my Waterfall station again. Sitting down, I sighed, waiting for the shift to end.
