“See?  That stupid determination of yers would have gotten somebody killed, but I think I found a way to control it so you don’t let it screw you over again.”

And with that Sans latched the collar around her neck.  The leather was smooth and Frisk felt the warmth of her charm resting lightly on her skin.  

“See this ring?” Sans asked and held up his hand for her to see.  The only thing Frisk could do was look, but from the way her vision was starting to fade she knew she wouldn’t even have that for long.  On the skeleton’s wedding finger was a golden ring with a red ruby stone.

“Think of this as a way for our SOULs to connect.  If I feel you might be makin’ a bad decision, this ring will send my feelings to your colla...um necklace.  I’ll always be lookin’ out fer ya this way,” he explained and that was the last thing Frisk heard before everything went black.

****************************************************************************************

When Frisk woke up she was in her own bed and the brief relief that everything that happened between her and Sans was simply a nightmare was short-lived when she felt something on her throat.   

The collar…

Reaching up in a blind panic, Frisk jumped off the bed and went to tear it off but as soon as her fingers touch the band she heard something echoing in her head.

Leave it alone, dollface.

She paused for just a second before she shook her head and tried to rip it off her throat.  A surge of unbearable pain rushed through a deep part of her chest, shocking her nerves and stiffening her muscles for a second.  And then just as quickly as that horrible bout of pain came, it went leaving no lingering sting behind.

“Yeah that’s what happens,” Sans said.  Frisk spun around and was just about to open her mouth to scream when another echoing suggestion made it’s way to her mind.

Don’t scream, dollface.

And just like before, that same horrible shot of pain erupted into her chest as soon as the first syllable left her mouth, only this time the pain was even worse.  It took her breath away and brought her to her knees.
