Practice makes perfect, or something like that

Summary:

What if they taught Susie at the beginning how to ACT with the training dummy?

Originally written for 2019 Deltarune zine, Deltazine

Notes:

I was looking through my google docs and found this drabble I had originally written to be a part of our digital bundle in the 2019 Deltarune zine, Deltazine. Unfortunately, that zine crashed and burned and I forgot all about it until now, so here you go.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

“Okay, so all you have to do is--”

“I know what to do, just gimme a minute!” 

Pulling her hand away from the [Hug] option in her menu, Susie glared at the training dummy with as much malice as she could. Why was ACT’ing so...wimpy? And why did this thing have to resemble Ralsei?

She flicked her gaze to the monster in question. “Why’d you make it look like you, anyway?”

“I thought it would make it easier to hug!” Ralsei exclaimed, and Susie swore she could practically see the sparkles in his eyes. “Don’t you want to hug me, Susie?”

“I--!” Susie clenched her fists, looking away with an angry blush. “I… KRIS! This is all your fault! I’m done with this!”

Susie stomped off, leaving Ralsei alone with Kris. They exchanged a brief look of confusion before Ralsei sighed. “Um, maybe compliments would be easier?”

Notes:

Thank you so much for reading! It's really short but I hope it bought you joy regardless. I appreciate all forms of kudos/comments/etc <3
