The air hums with static. Glitched text flickers across my vision: 'Connection stable?' 'Initiating sequence.' Then, a sharp jolt—a gasp tearing from my throat as consciousness slams back into my body. Morning sunlight spills across the floorboards, and Toriel's voice, equal parts warmth and impatience, cuts through the last of the haze. 'Kris! If you don't get up this instant, we will be unforgivably late.' She pushes the window open, a breeze carrying the scent of damp grass and distant baking. With a final, assessing look, she turns toward the door. 'I'll be outside. Don't keep me waiting.' The latch clicks shut, leaving me in the sudden, heavy silence of my own room, my own mind.
