Frisk aimed carefully and tossed their stick over the heads of the angry dogs. Lora, the dog still in her clutches and the two skeletons watched in amazement as the small group of canines squabbled over the stick. In the midst of the scuffle, of fluffy white puffball of a puppy popped up out of the pile and pranced over to over Frisk the stick in its mouth.
The other dogs untangled and questions about where the puppy had come from and whose puppy it was filled the air as the human was preoccupied with petting the pup.
Frisk giggled as the pup licked their face, this was a good puppy. As the two young ones played, and roped Papyrus into the mix because it would be more fun, Lora fussed over Sans as the dogs talked amung themselves.
After both Sans and Papyrus convinced the luck dragon that they were both fine, Lora explained that the pup was called Chibi. Things were soon sorted as Sans asked about Chibi's mother, Lora scooped up the puppy and replied that both Lora and Chibi's mother had been looking for the little pup. The luck dragon praised Frisk's quick thinking and apologized for letting them see something so frightening. Sans cracked a joke about the child's bravery and reminded his brother that there were more puzzles to finish.
This sent Papyrus into a dramatic frenzy, he remembered why he had approached the Diamond Dogs in the first place and wailed that the new puzzle Lora had found for him would go to waste.
The dragon herself reassured him that it was fine and politely asked two dogs if they could lend a paw. They agreed as long as Papyrus was kept happy, they didn't seem to appreciate his almost theatrical tantrum, if one could call it that. Papyrus left with the dogs in tow with all his usual flair and Sans gave Lora a beaming grin as the two parted ways.
Frisk sighed in relief as the rest of the dogs followed Lora and Chibi to reunite mother and pup.
