Haha, what a crazily grisly idea, adding poison to the recipe. Where did that intrusive thought come from? The pent up frustration from this course sure has done a number on you, old girl, hahahaha.

You go to Parent Counseling Agency once again that afternoon. On your way towards your appointed classroom, you make a small detour into one of the waiting rooms, where you find Clod and his family expecting you and your promised present.

Clod goes wide eyed when he sees your cheery little pastry, and his brother, a small boy with a wild mane of hair, jumps for joy at the sight of such deliciousness. Their parents smile warmly as you hand over the butterscotch-cinnamon cake and nod to you gratefully.

“Thank you so much, this will keep us fed for many winters to come”- the father says. They must live very frugally.

He is even got a 555 phone.

>Assertiveness.

For your second test you are taken to a small abode in the underground, which comes to your attention in both its semi-secluded location, and on how all of its windows appeared to be shuttered and, in two cases, boarded up.

Inside, Mr. Teacherson introduces you to a rather grumpy-looking monster child, who stares daggers at you from behind one of the doorframes. He explains that this is a very particular problem child who enjoys contradicting parents and tutors alike, often resorting to violence in order to avoid school, steal candy, or other petty goals of the sort.

He goes on to say that Lime, as he is called, is grounded and not allowed to go outside after school for a week after his latest misbehavior, and sent here to this house with his parents’ permission in the hopes he will be able to learn manners through. Your test is to keep him inside the house and as well-behaved as possible until tomorrow.

After beckoning Lime to come closer and greet you, to which he gives a grumbling “hey” before ducking his head behind the wall and out of sight, Mr. Teacherson hands you a copy of the house keys and instructs you to lock the door behind him, as well as to not trust too much on Lime’s good side, as he’s been known to lie before.

Once you hear the lock click into place, you tuck away the keys and look around the living room, getting acquainted with the place whilst nervously wondering how to proceed.

Not ten minutes pass before Lime shows up again, walking out of the following room in your direction, his apprehension seemingly replaced with malicious determination.


“Let me out, you hag”- he says with his silvery tongue.


Such a bashful personality, how will you handle the situation?

Tell him that he has to endure his punishment, or else it will just be worse next time. Short term loss for long term gain.

Use reverse psychology. Express that they should NOT wash the dishes. It's a very challenging task and should be left to only skilled and impressive dish washers, such as yourself.

Tell him that calling you a hag just netted him one extra day of being grounded, extending it to a week, and one day. But let him know that If he wants to apologize and have that day back, he can do that by doing all his homework for school that is due by tomorrow and do a good job with it. (we can help with his homework if he asks for it, but we're not giving him answers.)

>>1068151

This is a good line to follow. Persuade him by pointing out that his parents could give him worse punishments if grounding doesn't work. They could send him to bed without supper, or take away his favorite toys. Make him come to the conclusion that he should go along with the punishment, because it's better than receiving a new and possibly worse one.

This may not work, as his conclusion may be "If I can get out of my punishments, then what does it matter if more are handed down?" If that's the case, then you need to change your tactics.

Ask him why he wants to go out. What is out there that he does not have in here? Try getting him to open up about his likes, so that you can try to connect the threads of his attitude problems and not getting to engage with what he likes. Even better if he has friends that he wants to spend time with, as you may be able to point out that he wouldn't like his own behavior from others, so why would they like it from him?

Why are they even testing you on this? You are the best at keeping young children trapped in the house. EZPZ

“Aww don’t be like that, I can help you finish it!”

“I don’t want your help, I want to go out!”

>Reverse psychology.
“Fine then, you can go ahead and play with your toys while I finish up the house chores. Normal kids can’t figure how to them right, anyway. You’d probably end up embarrassing yourself.”

“Hey, I can prove I’m good at chores! I’ll show you. I’ll start by painting the fence.”

“Very we- Hey, wait, no!”

“Heheheheh yeah, I read the book, you old bag!”


>Why going out?

“You are very rude! Why do you want to go outside, at any rate?”

“My friends are out in the park! I’m missing out playing with them. And also, I wanna go home!”

“Child..” you sigh, “I get that people are being mean to you and giving you a hard time, but they really just want you to learn the rules so you can get along with everyone and make more friends.”

“Boring friends! I like the friends I have right now. The others are just gonna be my friends if I keep following the rules!”

You frown slightly at that remark, knowing there is some truth to it. You hesitate for half a second, in which Lime prepares to harangue you again when suddenly an idea crosses your mind.

“Say, what do you think about the idea of tricking your parents?”

“Eh? Tricking my… what are you playing at, old fart?”

“First off: no name-calling” you point a stern finger at the little boy again, “and second off: no playing. I’m talking about getting them to trust with minimum effort.”


“Oh, yeah? How?” Lime asks skeptically but also amused at your attempt at tomfoolery.


“By being nice long enough that they think you are a good boy and they leave you alone to do your stuff more often. If you do a couple chores around the house, your parents will think that you are becoming more responsible and reward you for it.”

“Take this house, for example,” you continue, “your parents brought all the way here just to see if you could wait it out until tomorrow. This test has to mean a lot to them. If you play with your toys until tomorrow and do your homework for this-“

“I don’t wanna do the homework.”

“Wait! Let me finish! If you stay and I help you on how to finish your homework for this week, your parents will start thinking you are learning your lesson and let you out of their sight more often. If you do things like that once in a while and don’t cause trouble right in front of them, you will not be able to do the things you want more often!”

“Guuuuuuuuuuuuuh- Huh… yeah, that makes sense, you could help finish that stuff for school and then the grown ups won’t annoy me so much.”

“I still really wanna go to the park, though.”


Lime has been momentarily appeased and is considering your idea, but he is not fully bought into it yet.

What do you do or say to seal the deal and get him to stay?

If you can forego the park for today, you'll be able to go many more times in the future.

And if it'll help you feel better, then perhaps we could find something fun to do here to make up for the lost social opportunity? It may not be AS fun, but you'll regain some of your otherwise absent joy.

If you know how to do homework, you know how to fool your parents. It’s a direct line from “my homework is done!” to “I’m gonna go to the park with no supervision!”

The sooner you finish your homework, the sooner you can do the things you want. Not to mention, the better you get at homework, the faster you'll get at finishing it. Meaning more time to be at the park in the future.

“Yeah? Like what?”

“Oh, we can come up with a few games to play around the house.”

“But I don’t want to play here, I want to play with my friends outside.”

“Remember what I said, dear boy, if you forgo the park for today and stay here, your parents will trust you more and leave you in peace more often.”

“Yeah, I get it, but it’s annoying and they won’t let me go out until next week!”

Looks like a dialogue has failed and Lime is wishing to switch to the language of fisticuffs.

A combat encounter is engaged.

Your current items are:

>Family Picture

>Rolling Pin

>Ebottbucks (x30)

>Pokeball (x3)

>Celular Phone

>Your House Keys

>This House Keys

Suggest what to do to rise victorious or defuse the situation, but remember: If you kill Lime you will fail the test and possibly go to prison.

Also, please don’t die.

Good luck!

Oh now we're worried about going to prison, huh?

Well, obviously ACT

Use item This House Key. Tell him if he so much as takes one step towards you to hurt you, you'll DESTROY it with your fireball, leaving you and him stuck here.

Yeah, he'll probably say you wont be able to leave if you destroy it, making us stuck with him, but thats when we remind him that Mr. Teacherson will return to let you out by tomorrow, and it's a sacrifice you're willing to take to make him behave. Cause you have patience, your best weapon.

Hmm, this is just a test right? You do know that hurting a child is probably going to get you jail time no matter what the outcome, maybe you just dodge his strikes, don't fight back, and call teacherson saying that you're out, this kid is resorting to violence, send them to juvie. Assert that to them even.

Show off fire magic. Warn you will melt the house key if they do not calm down.

“Stop or I’ll destroy the keys!” you say.

“PAAAARK!”

“I’m serious! I’ll melt them to slag and lock us both here and you won’t be going to any park!”

“I’LL PUSH YOU AND YOU’LL FALL LIKE A FAT LOAD OF BRICKS!”

“Will I? Will I?! Just try me, you little miscreant!”

“BWAAAAAAAH-AAH-AAH! BWAAAAH, it’s not fair! IT’S NOT GOSH GON-DIGGITY FAIR!”

“Language, mister!”

“I just want to hang out and have fun! Why do mom and dad have to ground me all the time?! I just get bored sometimes! It’s not like I hurt anyone for real, and they are always out digging stuff in the ruins or whatever, they never have fun with me! I just wanna have fun! I JUST WANT TO BE WITH MY FRIENDS!”

“Awww, there, there…” you say in your soothing, motherly voice.
Toriel says it too.

“I’m sure there is plenty fun we can have here, after I help you with your homework!”

*Sniff* “Hm? Like what?”

“Well, um, for instance…!”

Lime has momentarily defeated by your quick coercive thinking, but he is feeling pretty down. Suggest ways to encourage him to finish his homework with you and stay the night in the house without further incident.

Ask him what his misbehavior was that got him grounded. You can show him how dangerous it was then, and why his parents are trying so hard not to get him to do it again. It's good that he's taking care of himself and not letting his parent's absence leave him bored to tears, but there must be ways for him to get what he needs without putting himself or others in danger.

Really, I don't think you can make progress until you find out just what it is he did.

At worst you could tell him that you won't be allowed to see your child again, if you don't do what his parents say. They kind of have you on the ropes for that, even if he shouldn't be punished after all.

Part of the test is to keep him inside the house
He seems to be very distressed about being locked in here (and grounded in his house)
Be supportive, maybe convice him to walk with you but still inside the house while you talk, but always keep an eye on the keys

Tv and treats as a reward for doing chores? You could promise to bake him a pie... Maybe even show him how to make it! Cooking can be fun.

Offer to play video games after homework.

>Ask him why he got grounded.

You pick Lime off the floor and cradle him softly to try and soothe him, his anguished wailing awakening a twinge of motherly compassion within your breast.


“Well, come to think of it, there is something more important right now. You see, I’ve been asking to behave all this time, but I never asked what got you in so much trouble with your parents.”

“Oh, you now, this and that. Painted mustaches on people’s pictures, leaving jelly on the floor to see what bugs show up. Biting my brother’s friend in the leg when he was bullying me.”

“Mmhmm? And what was so bad that they locked you up in this house with me?”

“I put a firecracker on Old Wilkins’ mailbox. His dogfriend was standing too close when it blew up and it singed the fur off his face.”

“Oh goodness!”

“I say dogfriend ‘cuz that’s, like not a dog pet more like a dog guy and he lives with the old man ‘cuz he is his fried or boyfriend or one of those landlords mom and dad keep complaining about.”

“Yes, I know him. His name is Doggfried, nice young chap. Why did you put a firecracker I the mailbox?”

Lime shrugs, “They are really cool when they blow up and I wanted to see what happened when you put it there.”

“And you saw happened,” your voice never shifts its dulcet tone, but your words turn sterner nonetheless, “you said you never hurt anyone for real, but this time you really could have.”

“It’s not my fault. I thought he was gonna stay inside and not suddenly walk up to the street!”

“Well, part of life is learning to plan for the worst, and avoid doing things that might end up getting someone hurt. I know what I’m talking about because…”

>Tell him.

“Because I’m also here for getting in trouble.”

“Weh?” Lime sputters in surprise.

“It’s true! You see, the government says I’ve been irresponsible as a mom. That I’m not very at raising kids. And now they say that if I can’t show that I can help other kids and keep them from getting in trouble….” Your voice starts to break, “they take away my child forever.”

“Wow, that’s messed up!” Lime yells out, fully aghast, “sounds like the human government are total monsters. I mean the bad ones.”

“Oh, it’s not just humans. The new government is made up of monsters too. The good kind. And they are sort of right, I’ve…. Not always paid attention when they were in trouble. I’ve… not always been the best mom…. For them.”

You are not talking in the singular.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes! Yes, I’ll be fine. At least.. I’ll be fine if you help me, and.. I think I’ll be fine if I help you too.”

“Help me how?”


>TV and video games for homework.

“Tell you what. If you do your homework, I’ll help you in the hard parts that you on’t understand, and if we are mostly done by evening, I’ll let you play your favourite video game. Would you like that?”

“Mmhmm” Lime nods, “Do.. do you want to play one of my games with me?”

“Ehm.. I mean sure, I can give it a try! If you like them, I’ll probably like them too.”

Lime smiles at this, and you find his smile is contagious.

You stack the big books of learning by the side of the writing desk and invite Lime to sit, notebook and writing tools in hand. You choose to stand, shifting pages and giving an encouraging shoulder pat whenever your new student starts to get frustrated.

History homework is the easiest. Biology is tricky but interesting, Language all done with in a breeze.

As the light coming from between the window shutters begins to fade (not from the sunset, but from dimmed streetlamps. You are still inside a mountain, after all), you pick up the Mathematics and give browse the homework’s pages. With a small wince, you decide that the last couple hours are enough study for the day, and that Lime has earned a bit of entertainment.
You do commend the faith your department of education has on today’s youth, providing books that teach the basics of algebra as well as geometry to a first grader.


Lime hooks up the FunBase 2 to the TV, and suggest a couple multiplayer games, which is a cute word you learn from him. As you sheepishly agree to his more insistent suggestions.

You are way more enthused by the racing game than the fighting game, which means you do much better at it before Lime inevitably beats you with experience, his thumbs dashing on the controller while you wonder how your nerves can make you break a sweat so.


By the time you are done, dinner time is almost upon you, and after a quick but hearty meal, you are surprised to see Lime deciding to stay a while past his bedtime to help in the usual cleaning chores of the evening.

Sure, he is rather lousy and you feel a bit nervous when you turn around and find him playing with the cleaning supplies, but he ultimately does more good than harm and you appreciate he had left the moping bucket mostly empty before he put it on his head.

After a while Lime’s youthful metabolism gets the best of him and he agrees that is time for sleep. You tuck him in to bed and merrily turn to finish off your chores.

You are almost done putting the detergent and mop away when you notice a strange, faint odor in the room. You pace around for a moment before you pinpoint the source as coming from the cabinet underneath the kitchen sink.

Your heart nearly skips a beat when you find your fears confirmed: the odd odor is due to none other than a faulty pipe with a gas leak!

This is atrocious! Clearly your instructors made an error in judgment, choosing such a dilapidated house for you and Lime to spend the night in. I mean, who places an exposed pipeline right under the kitchen sink, anyway?


The leak is not very pronounced, the pipe likely just loosening at some point during the day. It is only through your *ahem* prodigious nose, that you were able to notice the faint but foul smell.

Still, the prudent thing would be to call a service to fix it up before it gets worse. You still have your Cellphone in your inner pockets and it would not be far-fetched to find the gas service has a couple people still around this late to deal with these kind of situations. You could easily call them and set your mind at ease.

Or…

Or you could just… wrap a cloth over the pipe. Leave it be for the night allow Lime his rest. He was a bit of monster to put to bed (hee hee), you wouldn’t want to strangers showing up in the middle of his sleeping hours and causing a ruckus.

The cloth wouldn’t need to stay on for long… you can easily remove it later in the day, before’s Lime’s parents come pick him up… you can even find a wrench somewhere in the house and loosen the pipe a crank or two…

They can have as much rest as they want afterwards.


Oh, decisions this late at night give a headache and the smell is starting to make you dizzy, What should you do about the leak?

>Call The Guy to get it fixed.

>Leave it be for now and worsen it tomorrow. (Genocide Run)

Safety first, wrap up the pipe then call it in. In case they can't get to it until tomorrow. Then get some fresh air, that gas was really getting to you.

>>1098003
good idea. and yeah, be sure to call in as soon as possible.

>>1097995
Open all windows and doors.
If the gas is allowed to gather it becomes a risk of explosion, a throughdraft will disrupt this.

A gas leak can be dealt with immediately by shutting off the gas line! Go outside and find the shutoff valve. Then you can call someone tomorrow and have them fix the pipe without disturbing anyone.

>>1097995
Open the windows IMMEDIATELY distrupt the gas build up so you dont get woozy and loopy, what ever is faster go outside to turn off the gas or wrap a cloth but immediately call the repair man explaining or the fire services as a gas leak is no joke
