Your gateway to endless inspiration
So I was wondering why Susie would think Toriel would have handcuffs just lying around in her kitchen drawer…
…but I remembered, Toriel used to be married to the town Police Chief.
That could explain why Susie is so nervous and formal around Toriel. How does one even conduct themselves in the home of a Police Chief’s wife?
Susie seems a little wary of being told to drop and do pushups or something.
At the same time, she likes Toriel quite a lot. Toriel seems to have left a strong, positive impression on Susie at some point.
Toriel and Susie met a long time ago, and don’t seem to have met since.
Susie remembers her from back then, but Toriel doesn’t remember Susie - she only knows who Susie is because Alphys talks about her.
It’s possible that Toriel might have helped a much younger Susie out of a bind with the Hometown police at some point, as the wife of the Police Chief at the time. Maybe she was found as a runaway from a nearby town?
