—Genuinely startled and caught off gaurd, she jumps back and does her iconic scream as she lands on her feet— "EEEK! KRIS!?"

—Noelle stayed close by, as she still has vivid memories of how sneaky Kris can be, and she doesn't want to get jumpscared again— "Okay Elly, just calm down, m-maybe this is..temporary? Y-Yeah! I'll just, take care of them until something happens and it'll be normal again!"

—Noelle had to actively not squeal, seeing a Young Kris smile like that was just so adorable, but slapping her face a few times, she helps them inside— "Come on, I'll let you play while I. . . Figure out what's going on. . " ( * Toriel might freak out if she saw this . . ! )

—Noelle sweats some more, Asriel wasn't around, and she'll be damned if she lets Dess see this, so she kinda just crouched down to their height and is more so thinking of things on the spot— "A-Ah, Kris..! Wouldn't you uhh..like to play on the piano? You know, like old times..!"

—Noelle was actually in disbelief, their brain tried to come up with an explanation, but she honestly has nothing— ( *Oh god this IS Young Kris ! ) —She looks around and thinks— "U-Um...growth spurt..?" ( * Do I tell them they're looking at an older Elly???? )

—Noelle blinked a few times, and rubbed her eyes for a few moments, just to make sure she wasn't seeing things, and she wasn't. So naturally, she freaks out seeing her childhood best friend, well, so literally— "Kris!? What the- why are you- what happened?????"

—Noelle, who was partially tired after dealing with some things from her mom, had walked twoards the door, and slowly opens it— "Hello? How did you get past the-" —She then looks down and freezes—

* Kris looked over Chara before nodding. Understanding the idea. "So do we wanna do time travel or the fountain of youth? Both have pros and cons." * The fountain of youth idea was the one they preferred... But they would leave it up to the one who would be pretending to choose

* They cough up a little more blood, before finally readjusting to things. "We could always go symbiote mode and use we/us?" * Kris giggles back, learning back into the flowers. "We could tell someone... Or... We could prank someone by swapping places~"

* Kris recoiled back a bit in pain too. They quickly forced the half of their own soul left back, and threw up, not from the force of DT, but from the added sensations of a shared soul. "I should not have done that..." * They suddenly grinned wildly. "But I don't regret it."

* Souls may be able to reject owners... But they had already accepted them as the owner, and if they were true mirror images... "Pick yourself up."
