[Asriel can't see it when Mettaton reaches out towards his eye, but his worry doesn't stop the relieved smile threatening to spread across Asriel's face. His eyes feel a little watery.

He's back. He really didn't disappear forever...

But ah... he noticed his eye. Of course he would, it's impossible to hide it. Asriel's tried.]

Me and Chara ran into some giant spiders that spit poison. The spiders almost won. Chara got hurt real bad and one of 'em spit something in my eye...

[He can't help himself. Asriel reaches out to try and hug the ghost.]

But more importantly, you're back! I missed you so much...
