He doesn't mean to blurt it out, but there's no stopping the words rising up into his skull like bile. Somehow that one detail manages to override her other confession, for just a moment, striking Sans with an instinctual fear. It was silly, really. Loads of people had met Chara. As far as he knew, Sans is the only one who wound up dead for it.

One with a whole lot of LOVE.
Maybe that's why he couldn't bring himself to react with more than a tired sigh and a hand dragged down his skull. Somewhere, deep down, he already knew just how heavy her soul was with sins.
