[It couldn't be anymore obvious to Mettaton that Asriel cared--a lot. And although part of him wants to tell Asriel he shouldn't be lying, that doing so is stupid in Mettaton's presence, he finds himself instead speaking with more...kindness. Sympathy.
Understanding.]
You aren't wrong if you do care. You're normal for caring, Asriel. And they should not be judging you for something that you are trying to leave behind.
[Leaving Flowey behind was an admirable goal. Mettaton still struggled to forgive Asriel for that, but he was just a kid. A scared kid who lost his ability to feel for so long that he'd do anything just to love.
He'd do anything to feel love, and to be "himself."
Yes, Mettaton understands.]
No one should bring up the past and hold it over you, use it as leverage to shut you up, even though that isn't you anymore. It's not. It's not you.
