  Summary

  Bored of waiting for the release of chapter five, the player decides to sate their craving of Deltarune content by reading a time travel fic, much to Kris' dismay, who is along for the ride.

  It was already tough when the SOUL just puppeteered them around, but now that it is capable of sarcasm, Kris has never wanted to die so much.

  If only it would let them.
