*Drowning in the absence of anything.

Aftergore is a series of AUs taking place after Undertale's neutral endings, in which a new human enters in Frisk's wake.
Aftergore I, the Incomplete/Flawed Pacifist ending, details an ending in which everyone (except for Asgore) was spared and befriended. Toriel has taken her ex-husband's place, ruling the Underground with both strictness and kindness. Humans are to be treated not as enemies, but as friends.

For some context, Big Bob is a little guy hidden away in UT's files.

"Nothing is known about this image, aside from the fact that it's Big Bob."

Well in this strange ending, he'd like to make himself a little more known. Only a little bit though.

[Aftergore I] Deadline

=================================
* Ah! You're finally here.
* Good. Please, make yourself at home, Heroes.

> [About yourself.]
* How rude of me. I've forgotten to introduce myself.
* I am The Hermit.
* Well...
* I don't suppose that's really my name. But it's been so long now, it's just...
* Easier to remember.
* I read fortunes.
* I used to use a scrying orb, but, I've found that Cards aren't all that difficult to read, ho ho!

> [The Light]
* The Light? 
* The one guarded by The Empress herself?
* I've ... seen it, yes.
* I can't say I recommend it. It's awfully permanent.
* You're going to anyways, though. I know.
* Just be careful. Just because I know how things will go...
* Doesn't mean I don't worry a little bit.

> [ Kingdom ]
* Until recently, this land was ruled by four monarchs.
* But then, The Bishop appeared, and, once they heard his message...
* Three of them wanted to spread it. But our dear Empress, she felt she must protect her people from it.
* As such, the others have been locked away. 
* But... the stress of guarding that secret...
* It's driven her mad.
* ...
* You three. You're going to confront her. I've already seen it.
* Please... help her.

> [ Thoughts on the Bishop ]
* My thoughts?
* ... Well.
* It preached finality. Fate. The truth of this world.
* But...
* I've seen fates change.
* And, as far as the truth, well...
* Who's to say what's REALLY true anymore?

> [ Strange Marionette? ]
* ... Ah. Well.
* I would love to tell you three, but...
* I sense more listening ears than I would like to allow.
* Come back... later.

* When there's light, there's hope included.
* Darkness has got to flee, so dreams remain.

87. Savior of the Dying World

* I am sorry, little one.
* You deserve better than this.
* Then again...
* Don't we all?
* Merry Christmas, Kevin.
* May you sleep soundly on this coldest of nights.

Leitmotifs present here:
* Santa Claus Is Coming to Town

* Jingle Bells

With the holiday season upon us, the curmudgeonly Grinch launches his master plan...with a deadly virus, he shall cancel Christmas, banishing all the holiday icons to a faraway land where they can't bring cheer to all the good children in the human world. Can one little troublemaker from Illinois be the key to bringing back the Christmas spirit?

Merry Christmas everyone! This technically ends the event as scheduled. Maybe there's a bit more to come this year, but no promises. We hope you've all enjoyed this month of tunes, it's been an absolute blast. Here's to more in the future! Enjoy this time with your loved ones. It's the most wonderful time of the year, after all.

Santa Claus takes the role of Asgore. As to be expected, he rules this world from its recreation of the North Pole, where he observes all and acts as a force of joy. Of course, this comes at a catch: he knows that he must take action to free himself and his friends from this prison, otherwise he will no longer be able to bring joy to the children of the real world. It's a difficult moral situation for a guy who usually only deals in naughty and nice.

Relevant roles:
Asgore - Santa
Frisk - Kevin McCallister

New Home - North Pole
