That's my cousin. We all look more or less like that at the start.
It wasn't what you wanted to be. Huh... I can't say I really get that, 'cause I've never had any problems being a ghoul and I never wanted to be human. But... it sounds like it would've sucked.
I don't know if I would describe it as wanting to be human. But their bodies are about as close to ideal as it can get, it's true. At least as far as I'm concerned.
...But they break so easily... A ghoul would definitely be better! We can't be hurt easily and we can heal quickly! Humans are slow as fuck to heal stuff like cuts and shit, I can't imagine how long it takes them to heal a broken bone...

[Let him take the book back there, Naki, hang on - hopefully you're prepared for a really sketchy drawing of what is most definitely a long-haired fish lady in a suit of armor.]
That's Undyne. She's currently the head of the Royal Guard! Appointed by Asgore himself, I believe. Also Alphys'...friend.
