TWIN RUNES - FAQ
What exactly is this AU about? Twin Runes is essentially a comedic crossover AU between the universes of Deltarune and Undertale. No fancy nicnacs. Just the characters being their chaotic selves. But there might be some darkness lurking up ahead... ____________________
When is the next comic? The comic updates most Sundays at 6:30 PM Central European Time. ____________________
Why is this AU called Twin Runes? The name is more or less a play on the typical naming format of most AU's by featuring the "Runes" part. There are no literal Twin Runes. The whole name is more of a stand in for Undertale and Deltarune as parallel worlds. Hence the "Twin" part. ____________________
When does Twin Runes take place? This AU takes place between a hypothetical Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 of Deltarune. On the Undertale side of things, it takes place post neutral route just as Frisk was about to deliver Undyne's letter to Alphys.
Tumblr media
How many pages are there going to be? The script for this comic estimates that the comic is going to be 137 pages long (if I don't make any major changes). ____________________
What software do you use to make your art/the comic? I use Clip Studio Paint. ____________________
Is the Player a thing in this AU? The Player(s) lost control over both human children as soon as Frisk entered the world of Deltarune. Essentially, the reader takes on the role of the Player. You have no influence on the outcome of the story anymore. All you can do is watch. Both Kris and Frisk refer to the Player as "It" and "the THING". ____________________
Is there going to be a Weird Route? Due to the lack of Player, all choices made by Kris are now their own. How to engage in battle all depends on Kris, and not the Player. Because of that, there are NO DIFFERENT ROUTES. There is only one route and that one is based on Kris' choices. Because of the lack of save points, there is no "what-if" scenario. ____________________
When Chapter 3 and 4 are released, will it affect the story? Any chapters after Chapter 3 won't affect the story in the grand scheme of things. Twin Runes created a new timeline so to speak. UPDATE: We are nearing the final arc of the story. The script has been long completed and is set in stone. Even with Chapter 3 and 4's release there is no way for me to incorporate anything from Chapter 3 (read the rest of the FAQ) into the story without making a mess of things. Yes, that also includes your favorite character Pluey. UPDATE OF THE UPDATE: Since Twin Runes was created before Chapters 3 and 4, there are bound to be inconsistencies going forward!Luckily, this is an AU, and I designed it to be purposefully off in some parts because I knew I would inevitably be wrong!!!! So no. There won't be any references to Chapter 3 in the comic going forward (since the story takes place between a hypothetical Chapter 3 and 4 [so not the canon ones]) And it won't be moved downwards the timeline. ____________________
How old are the characters in this story? Frisk appears to be around 9 years old. Kris thinks they're 14. (Both Frisk and Kris don't know their actual age.) Chara died when they were around 10-11. Susie is around 15-16 (she was held back once) Ralsei appears to be the same age as Kris. ____________________
What's up with Kris' and Frisk's hair? The red bits of their hair is more or less a representation of their souls. That in turn is also why Chara doesn't have that feature. They are soulless. It's a stylistic choice. ____________________
What's that thing on Kris' chest? It's a scar they got from tearing out their soul.
Tumblr media
And why do they have weird lines all over their body? Both Kris and Frisk's anatomy resemble that of ball-jointed dolls. They appear just as markings across their bodies. Think of them as elaborate birthmarks. Kris and Frisk are still made of flesh and blood, but are in fact hypermobile. The reason as to why they do is still a little secret :) People here like to refer to these markings as "puppet limbs". You can get a better look at them and the scar in this artwork
Tumblr media
Why does Kris have braces? This is why:
Are old art, comics and asks from your blog part of Twin Runes? Unless stated otherwise, all art that was made prior to the start of the comic are not canon to Twin Runes. That mainly includes the old asks. __________________
Why is Dark World Frisk green? Frisk changes their main sweater colors with Kris when they enter the Dark World.
Tumblr media
Could other ghosts see Chara? (pre Darkner transformation) No, only Frisk and Kris were able to see Chara. ____________________
IS KRIS NOW FRISK'S COUNTERPART OR CHARA'S???? :) ____________________
Where are Jevil and Spamton? Are they in Castle Town? The Fun Gang have already fought these two in the previous chapters and added them into their inventory. Outside of that little dream sequence, neither will be making an appearance. ____________________
Is anyone from Undertale Yellow gonna make an apperance? Outside of a tiny cameo from Clover (that has no greater bearing on the story) no one from Undertale Yellow is going to make an appearance. ____________________
How would the characters from Deltarune react if they met their Undertale counterpart? The universe would implode if that happens. ____________________
But what abou- The. Universe. Would. Implode. Next question! ____________________
How did you come up with the idea of Twin Runes? Twin Runes is an offshoot of a separate script I started in 2023. The concept of this script is similar to Twin Runes, but turned on its head. The funny moments in that script made me continue what now is the start of Twin Runes. I pretty much just wanted to see if I am actually capable of drawing a comic to begin with. So... in a way Twin Runes is my first attempt at a comic ever. If I ever finish Twin Runes, then I know I can tackle turning that mammoth project of a script into a comic too. In the grand scheme of things these two projects are sister series. They have A LOT in common and even share similar plot elements. When Twin Runes is over you will automatically also know certain mysteries of The Other Script. ____________________
What is The Other Script? As of this moment I call The Other Script: "Lost in the In-Between". At its core it's an inverse of Twin Runes. I.e. Kris falling into the underground and being aided by Frisk on their quest to return home. The story is considerably more grounded than Twin Runes and so are the characters. Though they do have their silly moments from time to time. The overall mood of that script is a lot darker in nature and it's a 200+ page passion project of mine. The script OF The Other Script is not open to the public. Only a select few people have access to it for proof reading. ____________________
Is there x ship in Twin Runes? The focus of this story is not on shipping. If it's in the game it will very likely be mentioned or brought up, but that's about it. ____________________
What pronouns do the human children use in this story? THEY/THEM FOR ALL OF THEM WITHOUT ANY EXCEPTIONS. That is what they are in this story. This is not open to interpretation. Please respect that. If this is a dealbreaker for you, then unfortunately this story is not for you.
___________________________________________________________
ABOUT FAN CONTENT
Am I allowed to make fanart? ABSOLUTELY! You are very welcome to make fanart if you feel like it. Please let me know if you do by tagging me, so I can share it with everyone to see so that you get the appreciation you deserve! ____________________ Can I use the funny faces you draw for memes or for stuff like memes or for profile pictures? That's what they're here for! ____________________
Am I allowed to translate the comic and post the translation to a different site? I get asked very often by people who want to translate my comic in different languages, so it's quite hard for me to keep up with who asked for permission or not. This is why the comic is free to translate if you like. All I ask is that you are well-versed in the language you're translating it into and to please link the original work with the proper credit given. ------------------------
Am I allowed to dub your comic? See the point above. You are free to dub the comic if you like. The same simple rules apply. With ONE important rule you NEED to adhere to... -----------------------
If I create content off your comic (dubbing, translations, etc...), am I allowed to monetize it? NO. Everything about Twin Runes is NON-PROFIT. Meaning that I don't make any money off this comic either, as it is purely fan content. If I see people making money off my work, I WILL use my right to ask you to remove it.
______________________________________________________________
ABOUT ASKS
Asks will open after a new comic has been released. I will queue the questions from Monday until Friday. Once the queue is full, asks will close. Your questions will then be answered over the course of the week.
Try not to submit multiple asks. If necessary, just keep everything in one post.
Keep in mind that I receive AL LOT of asks. There is no guarantee that every question will be answered.
Questions containing spoilers will not be answered on principle. Wouldn't be as fun if the surprise was ruined, right?
Before leaving an ask (mostly for everyone who's new), please make sure to read the FAQ section above. A lot of times your question might have been answered already.
I love memes and dumb jokes as much as the next guy, but try not to spam
It probably goes without saying, but please stay civil. I want to give everyone the respect they deserve, and naturally like to be treated the same way.
Please be mindful about drawing requests. It is understandable if you're eager to see a certain character drawn in my style, but I do not like to be bombarded by requests. The more it happens, the less likely I am to do it. Be kind and ask nicely.
I don't take unsolicited comic ideas.
Don't use other people's posts that I reblogged to ask me questions! It has happened before and I do not wish to see this!
This isn't an ask blog. The comic has a script that will not deviate. Reader interaction with the characters won't be possible due to the overall "no Player" subplot.
Please do not ask me to put your characters into the story. Like I said, the script is already finished and I'm quite happy with it. Your characters are in better hands with yourself and your own stories. Please have respect for mine.
______________________________________________________________
ABOUT SUBMISSIONS
The submission box is for FANART ONLY!
It is meant for those who do not want to submit their fanart to their own blogs, in case they feel scared or intimidated to do so.
ASKS AND REQUESTS THAT ARE SUBMITTED THIS WAY WILL NOT BE ANSWERED.
Please wait until the ask box opens. You can read more on how asks work in the section above.
______________________________________________________________
REFERENCE SHEETS
The following are ref sheets of characters that don't have established Dark World forms yet (as of writing this comic). The list will be updated as soon as a new character enters the Dark World. Here you will also find references of characters that might appear as surprise cameos, or maybe even completely new faces...

Okay I JUST realized I never posted these on here—- BUT BASICALLY, about a year and a half ago I started doing these experimental black hairstyle posts that were threads long on Twitter, to give artists a source of inspo for their black ocs whose hair they wanted to try something new with! There’s more to black hair than just the selected styles portrayed in media, and I thought it would be fun to show people how much texture, shape, fades, length, and style can be combined when drawing black hair—-cause it’s a kind of manipulation our hair can do irl! The OG thread from when I made these a year ago were lost with the hacking of my original Twitter account (@/bagels_donuts) but I’ve since reuploaded the whole thread to my new Twitter (@/ItsDonutsFR)! I hope artists on tumblr find these useful, sorry it took me so long to post them here😭🙏🏾 I’ll upload them all in parts!

Frozen Heart Syndrome - Fictional Illness
So I was thinking about hanahaki and the sentinel/guide fictional settings, and I wanted to make my own fictional illness based on my favorite character archetype: cold to all but warm to one (loved ones)
So here it is: Frozen Heart Syndrome! This is kind of a mess, so read at your own risk I guess. And, add what you like to it as well! Or, a character idea that you think is cool (mine is an interstellar general leading his team and looking for a childhood friend through the vast cosmos. You'll understand, trust me.)
A few things first though - a syndrome is a collection of traits that happen together, with no known cause or treatment plan. Also, the fantasy symptoms can be included/excluded based on the worldview, but the science symptoms are always present regardless of worldview. [Science? More like pseudoscience haha.]
Okay, here's my thoughts on the Fictional Illness, Frozen Heart Syndrome (FHS)!
(Science) FHS causes the patient's emotions to dull or 'freeze,' causing the person to have extremely rational behavior and develop difficulty with creating and continuing interpersonal relationships, then developing an apathetic attitude (late-stage). Eventually, the patient develops apathy-induced suicidal thoughts, behaviors, and attempts, with frequency and strength depending on the patient's latent willpower and self-control.
(Fantasy) FHS causes the patient's body to slowly begin to freeze. The temperature of the body slowly drops, causing the air to freeze, then the surrounding liquids/solids to freeze, then finally freezing the heart, killing the patient.
Science-based symptoms include: lack of - or suppressed - empathy, increased rationality, increased ruthlessness, increased psychological resilience, increased calm/emotional numbness when faced with stress or trauma, eventual suicidal thoughts/behaviors
Fantasy-based symptoms include: lowered body temperature, blood and heart literally 'freezing' (late-stage), new and/or increased control over ice/cold-based abilities
Doctors should take care to not mistake patients with FHS for antisocial personality disorders (ASPD); FHS patients are not volatile and impulsive (unlike sociopaths) and are not manipulative nor fully lack empathy and remorse (unlike psychopaths).
FHS manifests in patients of all ages, typically forming between ages 13 to 21.
The speed at which FHS is exacerbated from initial to terminal varies patient to patient, usually between 2-20 years, with no known patterns to determine why. (Theories include soulmates, number of relationships, strength of relationships, patient intro/extra/ambiversion, etc.)
No discovered patterns for pre-detection
No treatments can fully rid the patient of FHS, but there are effective methods to suppress the symptoms:
Science:
Keeping the patient nearby family and friends suppress the symptoms and 'warm' the heart; the degree of effectiveness closely related to the strength of the bond (i.e., 'closeness,' both physical and mental)
Soulmates are extremely effective, and have been shown to suppress symptoms up to 90%. However, patients with soulmates come with extra risk:
FHS patients with soulmates often go undiagnosed due to the extreme effectiveness of the soulmate
If a patient with FHS is separated from a soulmate, FHS directly 'freezes' the patient's emotions within 24 hours of separation. Other bonds can no longer display full efficacy; only up to 50% maximum efficacy. However, this state is reversed when the patient is reunited with the soulmate.
Note: If the separation lasts long enough for the patient to have matured emotionally, at the time of reuniting the patient with the soulmate, the emotions are returned to the state they were at the time of separation. (Emotional regression is not to be confused with a regression of mental faculties; the patient is aware of their 'childishness'.) With continued exposure to the soulmate, the patient's emotions begin to synch with their current emotional 'age' (maturity) with a rate of approximately 6 months:1 day.
Example: Patient A is separated from soulmate at 14, reunited at 20. Patient A feels emotions with the amount of childishness as when they were 14, and with continued exposure takes 12 days to recover to the emotional maturity of a 20 year old. A separation of 20 years would take 40 days to recover.
If a patient with FHS loses their soulmate (i.e., soulmate dies), FHS progresses directly to the final, terminal stage (i.e., suicidal thoughts/actions), regardless of other bonds.
Fantasy:
Cold is the opposite of warm, and scientifically coldness is the lack of warmth. The progression of FHS is like digging a hole that can hold warmth. Therefore, FHS patients should wear warm clothing and cover as much skin as possible (to retain body heat), and can sit next to a powerful heat source (e.g., a fireplace, a hot water bath, a boiler room) to 'fill the bowl,' suppress symptoms, and slow the progression of FHS.
Note this is not a permanent solution, as while FHS progresses, the 'bowl' gets bigger, requiring a more powerful heat source or more time spent beside one; similar to developing a tolerance to medication.

@nerdpoe @fanfiction-artist-prototype I've just been binging this thread and I have never been so happy to log onto tumblr as I am now.
I have some headcannons about Cale's voice in this AU that have been sparked during your thread:
1) Cale has really good speaking habits, particularly his diction (i.e., word choice and enunciation).
KRS was a team leader if I recall correctly, and as such needs to coordinate his peers verbally as they often would not be able to see him for long enough to watch his hands (either fighting side-by-side on the frantic battlefield or coordination orders over radio comms).
Therefore, the others absolutely need to be able to understand him, regardless of his ruined voice.
So KRS develops the habit of enunciating every word particularly clearly, so the people listening to him can hear the syllables through the sounds of a gravelly motor truck. And monsters, of course.
He also learns and chooses more difficult words, as they often have more syllables to differentiate them from other similar words, which leads to him speaking clearly and concisely as well as proficiently ordering directly effective commands without excess prose.
This helps him in issuing commands as Commander Cale, as well.
2) Cale, at some subconscious level, dislikes (hates) his voice.
His voice as KRS had become so shredded that it sounded like rocks in a blender layered over nails on a chalkboard, and he hated it.
He doesn't speak aloud enough as Cale to truly start accepting his (new) voice as his own, and keeps startling himself a bit whenever he chooses to speak aloud, much to the chagrin of his new family.
Thus, he never truly realizes that…
3) His (new) voice is really, really pretty.
Not only are Cale's new vocal chords undamaged by [Lament] (and can be cleanly healed through ancient powers and magic + Divine Collar), but they are also the vocal chords of a previously pampered 18-year-old boy of nobility - growing up on soothing tea and refreshing milk, probably.
So the proper diction, word choice and enunciation from the days of being KRS, coupled with an undamaged voice of a young noble, combines to make an astonishingly beautiful voice that everyone cherishes, without fail, when they hear it.
4) The symbolism and undertones of silence being a virtue, abstinence and purity, etc.
Whenever I think of a character choosing/being forced into silence, it always gives of pure/holy vibes due to the connections and virtues stated above.
Honestly I think Cale's tendency to stay silent would only elevate his image as a "pure, holy, noble being" (i.e., sainthood as both a status and personality indicator) in the eyes of citizens and others who know him.
"Choose and value words like gold" ahh type beat.
I'm curious on what you (two) think of this.
Rok Soo's ability isn't Instant AU
Instead of being able to, very briefly and painfully, fuck with time; he got an ability based on all the absolute bullshit that's happened to him.
From the childhood, to his friends dying in front of him. All the shitty rumors that sprouted up, all the shit luck, all of it. Just, all of it.
So instead of Instant, he got Lament.
Lament is a scream capable of leveling buildings, at the cost of absolutely shredding Rok Soo's throat.
As a result of that power, Rok Soo doesn't talk often, and when he does his voice is hoarse and pained. He also refuses to speak at full volume, because while he's got a handle on his power, he's paranoid that he'll slip up.
So when he transfers over to the body of Cale, people notice.
The Young Master went to bed his usual talkative self, but when he woke up?
Barely a word, and when he did speak, a whisper.
Cale barely speaks a word to Ron beyond the single syllable required. Barely bothers to acknowledge Deruth. Relies on hand-speak and notes to talk to merchants.
Deruth is going crazy trying to figure out what the hell happened to his son, Ron is very close behind him because what the hell got past him? He's Ron Fucking Molan.
Then Cale comes home with a bedraggled punk that smells like the trash the killed Ron's family, and Ron has to listen in astonishment as he says more to this jackass than he's said to Ron in a week.
Basically; Cale's power of Lament is so strong and painful that everything Cale is paranoid of letting it slip, that he's selectively mute. This causes many misunderstandings, in true Cale fashion.

Cold is the opposite of warm, and scientifically coldness is the lack of warmth. The progression of FHS is like digging a hole that can hold warmth. Therefore, FHS patients should wear warm clothing and cover as much skin as possible (to retain body heat), and can sit next to a powerful heat source (e.g., a fireplace, a hot water bath, a boiler room) to 'fill the bowl,' suppress symptoms, and slow the progression of FHS.
Note this is not a permanent solution, as while FHS progresses, the 'bowl' gets bigger, requiring a more powerful heat source or more time spent beside one; similar to developing a tolerance to medication.

[image description: a ten page comic starring saiki kusuo from the disastrous life of saiki k and anya forger from spy x family.
1: a shot of the both of them walking. They are talking with telepathy.
2: anya, telepathically: do all telepaths have pink hair?
saiki, telepathically: no
anya: oh… are you a spy?! (Next to this thought is a drawing of loid forger)
saiki: no.
anya: an assassin?! (next to this thought is a drawing of yor forger)
saiki: hey, aren’t these your parents?
anya hesitates to answer.
3: saiki: I… am a normal high school student.
anya: what?! how?! You have telepathy! your life has to be exciting!
saiki: I prefer when it’s not. I don’t like telling people that I’m an esper.
4: anya think about this for a moment, before going wide eyed.
anya: does that mean you have to kill me?!
saiki: what? no?
5: saiki: why would I have to kill you.
anya: because i know about your telepathy?
saiki: watch other cartoons
anya, looking shocked: How- it’s not from a cartoon. (She is thinking of a cartoon, where someone says “you found out my secret! Die!”)
saiki: you’re replaying the episode in your head right now.
6: saiki: it seems like a better show than cyborg ciderman no. 2 at least.
anya: cyborg ciderman?
saiki: don’t watch that either.
anya: if you don’t like telling people about it (his telepathy)… do some people already know?
7: saiki thinks of his mom, aiura, toritsuka, and akechi.
saiki: a couple classmates, my family. some found out on their own.
Anya: how did it go?
8: saiki: maybe a little too well. they never stop bugging me now.
anya: really?
saiki: really.
anya looks shocked, then says: I haven’t told anyone.
saiki: you don’t have to
anya: i know, but…
9: a shot of both of them walking, this time in silence.
10: saiki: hey, if you haven’t told anyone, did you make your psychic limiters yourself?
anya: what are psychic limiters?
saiki: the cones one your head?
anya: heh. ive fooled you. These are just hair pins!
saiki: why do they look like that.
anya: I don’t know

I think getting a cold would also manifest differently, and had a few ideas on how it might pan out (depending on what you want in your universe):
Amplify - The body gets fevers to kill disease, but patients with FHS have a body that is Cold and Wants To Cool Down. This creates an imbalance in temperature, causing the body to overreact and become hotter. With both a hotter fever and cooler chills constantly switching back and forth, the disease recovery process would be more dangerous, with the patient getting the brunt of it (they usually become delirious out of their minds for the duration of being sick)
Neutralize - Hot (fevers) and Cold (FHS) naturally cancel each other out. This could manifest in two ways: a) Safe - While the body burns away diseases, the natural cold factor of the body with FHS keeps the patient at a normal temperature. They can go about their day without suffering the consequences of being sick. b) Dangerous - The body tries to warm up to burn away disease, but FHS refuses to let warmth be present. The body is unable to use its natural defense mechanism, and is in much greater danger of dying from even the most common of illnesses. (In this case, patients with FHS should make sure to keep their antibodies up to date with flu and other shots from the doctor's.)
Frozen Heart Syndrome - Fictional Illness
So I was thinking about hanahaki and the sentinel/guide fictional settings, and I wanted to make my own fictional illness based on my favorite character archetype: cold to all but warm to one (loved ones)
So here it is: Frozen Heart Syndrome! This is kind of a mess, so read at your own risk I guess. And, add what you like to it as well! Or, a character idea that you think is cool (mine is an interstellar general leading his team and looking for a childhood friend through the vast cosmos. You'll understand, trust me.)
A few things first though - a syndrome is a collection of traits that happen together, with no known cause or treatment plan. Also, the fantasy symptoms can be included/excluded based on the worldview, but the science symptoms are always present regardless of worldview. [Science? More like pseudoscience haha.]
Okay, here's my thoughts on the Fictional Illness, Frozen Heart Syndrome (FHS)!
(Science) FHS causes the patient's emotions to dull or 'freeze,' causing the person to have extremely rational behavior and develop difficulty with creating and continuing interpersonal relationships, then developing an apathetic attitude (late-stage). Eventually, the patient develops apathy-induced suicidal thoughts, behaviors, and attempts, with frequency and strength depending on the patient's latent willpower and self-control.
(Fantasy) FHS causes the patient's body to slowly begin to freeze. The temperature of the body slowly drops, causing the air to freeze, then the surrounding liquids/solids to freeze, then finally freezing the heart, killing the patient.
Science-based symptoms include: lack of - or suppressed - empathy, increased rationality, increased ruthlessness, increased psychological resilience, increased calm/emotional numbness when faced with stress or trauma, eventual suicidal thoughts/behaviors
Fantasy-based symptoms include: lowered body temperature, blood and heart literally 'freezing' (late-stage), new and/or increased control over ice/cold-based abilities
Doctors should take care to not mistake patients with FHS for antisocial personality disorders (ASPD); FHS patients are not volatile and impulsive (unlike sociopaths) and are not manipulative nor fully lack empathy and remorse (unlike psychopaths).
FHS manifests in patients of all ages, typically forming between ages 13 to 21.
The speed at which FHS is exacerbated from initial to terminal varies patient to patient, usually between 2-20 years, with no known patterns to determine why. (Theories include soulmates, number of relationships, strength of relationships, patient intro/extra/ambiversion, etc.)
No discovered patterns for pre-detection
No treatments can fully rid the patient of FHS, but there are effective methods to suppress the symptoms:
Science:
Keeping the patient nearby family and friends suppress the symptoms and 'warm' the heart; the degree of effectiveness closely related to the strength of the bond (i.e., 'closeness,' both physical and mental)
Soulmates are extremely effective, and have been shown to suppress symptoms up to 90%. However, patients with soulmates come with extra risk:
FHS patients with soulmates often go undiagnosed due to the extreme effectiveness of the soulmate
If a patient with FHS is separated from a soulmate, FHS directly 'freezes' the patient's emotions within 24 hours of separation. Other bonds can no longer display full efficacy; only up to 50% maximum efficacy. However, this state is reversed when the patient is reunited with the soulmate.
Note: If the separation lasts long enough for the patient to have matured emotionally, at the time of reuniting the patient with the soulmate, the emotions are returned to the state they were at the time of separation. (Emotional regression is not to be confused with a regression of mental faculties; the patient is aware of their 'childishness'.) With continued exposure to the soulmate, the patient's emotions begin to synch with their current emotional 'age' (maturity) with a rate of approximately 6 months:1 day.
Example: Patient A is separated from soulmate at 14, reunited at 20. Patient A feels emotions with the amount of childishness as when they were 14, and with continued exposure takes 12 days to recover to the emotional maturity of a 20 year old. A separation of 20 years would take 40 days to recover.
If a patient with FHS loses their soulmate (i.e., soulmate dies), FHS progresses directly to the final, terminal stage (i.e., suicidal thoughts/actions), regardless of other bonds.
Fantasy:
Cold is the opposite of warm, and scientifically coldness is the lack of warmth. The progression of FHS is like digging a hole that can hold warmth. Therefore, FHS patients should wear warm clothing and cover as much skin as possible (to retain body heat), and can sit next to a powerful heat source (e.g., a fireplace, a hot water bath, a boiler room) to 'fill the bowl,' suppress symptoms, and slow the progression of FHS.
Note this is not a permanent solution, as while FHS progresses, the 'bowl' gets bigger, requiring a more powerful heat source or more time spent beside one; similar to developing a tolerance to medication.

Hired a moving company and they sent four strong, strapping, beautiful lads to my house to disassemble my furniture and move all my things. I loved them. I got them pizza. They told me moving company gossip. I missed them one minute after they left. My moving lads. Come back to me. You're so strong and so well trained in safe lifting
