[She's... honestly a little glad they're texting her. She didn't mean to not reach out after the whole search party thing, but everything's been incredibly exhausting and she kind of just wants to die on the floor. But hey! This is contact!]
[It's cool Alphys not like they've been contacting people themself, lately. They're both garbage and decompression periods suck. Their life for a chance to lay on the floor and feel like garbage.]

[It's okay if she says it is, right?
... Right.]
[Text]
Thanks.
[Except the thing is, they can't quite agree with her. Can't say no, I wouldn't do it again. Can't speak for him, either.
Timelines are weird, scary things. Hoping for the best outcome...
That's all they can do, right now.]
