Frisk tips Chara's head, thinking. 'Setting him on fire' makes them think of their mom.
"Oh, you had magic?" They sound interested and pleased, as if they just learned the other Frisk could do kickflips. If there's a little wistful envy, it's very deeply buried.
You have interesting priorities. They're getting to it! They mull over the next question before putting it, because they know it's going to open a can of worms.
"You... couldn't SAVE them?"
Because they can't imagine a them who wouldn't have tried it if they knew they could. Sorry, Kotetsu, they did their best. They ignore Chara's aggressive internal question marks.
"Sometimes," they say quietly. "You do have to FIGHT."
When there's no other option. A bitter truth they had to learn that still leaves a rejective taste in their mouth. They don't know the full details yet, so they can't really make any comment, they feel. Their other self shouldn't feel bad for doing what they had to, if they had to. That said -
