???: "..."

???: "..."

???: "Where am I?"

???: "..."

???: "...What am I...?"

???: "..."

???: "What... Why do I have no... Where is my body?"

???: "..."

???: "I... fell down... didn't I?"

???: "..."

???: "Is this... the other side?"

???: "...No."

???: "Then what is this place...?"

???: "..."

???: "..."

???: "...so be it."

???: "..."

Chujin: "...this is your purgatory, isn't it?"

INTEGRITY: "...it's yours."

...

...

...

Chujin: "...I want out."

INTEGRITY: "...it won't be that easy."

Chujin: "..."

Chujin: "Well, then."

Chujin: "I want to meet my parents."

INTEGRITY: "..?"

Chujin: "Dad deserves to know I made him... proud."

Chujin: "As for Mom..."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "What?"

INTEGRITY: "Did you make your father proud?"

Chujin: "I'm... not sure."

INTEGRITY: "What do you really want?"

Chujin: "I..."

INTEGRITY: "..."

...

...

...

Chujin: "Kanako..."

INTEGRITY: "...?"

Chujin: "My daughter... she-"

Chujin: "How did it not occur to me sooner-"

Chujin: "Kanako needs me. I can't imagine what she's going through without her father by her side."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "Please, I... I need to see my daughter. My daughter and my wife... Please..."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "..."

Chujin: "You..."

INTEGRITY: "..."

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

Chujin: "I need to apologize... to ASGORE, I mean."

Chujin: "I... It's understandable why he'd not want me as the Royal Scientist."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "...that's not what I really mean."

Chujin: "His flowerbed. I remember hearing about it."

Chujin: "The last prototype I showed him set the resting place of the KING's only son aflame."

Chujin: "I wonder what she... Ceroba... would've thought about that, to hear that."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "And to hear about my life in the Steamworks..."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "..."

Chujin: "...in retrospect."

Chujin: "I think... I think all that really mattered to me... having done everything I did for the Underground... was being seen..."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "...how long... has it been?"

INTEGRITY: "..."

INTEGRITY: "...three years."

Chujin: "Hmm..."

Chujin: "I wonder what Ceroba and Kanako could be doing right now..."

Chujin: "Kanako... she'd be... eleven now, I think."

Chujin: "And Ceroba..."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "Ceroba... I-I..."

Chujin: "..."

Chujin: "...Why am I unable to talk about her?"

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "What is happening to me..?"

INTEGRITY: "..."

...

...

...

Chujin: "Get me out of here, kid."

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "I'm serious, I don't know what more you want from me."

Chujin: "How much honesty do I have to embody? Haven't I realized my mistakes?"

Chujin: "I've even admitted that I've wronged ASGORE, I've wronged the people in the Steamworks who needed me and my help whom I all but dismissed. I didn't help Starlo when it was so apparent to me that he needed someone to tell him that loving Ceroba would only hurt him. Is that not enough...?"

INTEGRITY: "...not nearly."

...

...

...

INTEGRITY: "...Six years."

Chujin: "..."

INTEGRITY: "...Six years since you fell down."

INTEGRITY: "...You tried, but failed."

Chujin: "..."

INTEGRITY: "...my SOUL is reaching it's limit. even if I intended to keep you longer, I couldn't."

Chujin: "...what?"

INTEGRITY: "..."

Chujin: "..."

Chujin: "...Six years, huh?"

Chujin: "What will await me after six years?"

...

Chujin: "If there is anyone I want to meet... it's my family, Ceroba and Kanako."

INTEGRITY: "..."
