[ Break's expression shows that pretty clearly, and he pauses for a few moments as he tries to piece it together... But nope, it goes over my head, so it's going over his. ]
Er... Should I go through the buildings in the same way?
[UGH THIS IS WHY YOU NEED TO BE ABLE TO SEE BREAK!! Not that she's surprised that he didn't get it, since yeah this is all pretty confusing shit.
She taps the finger he used to indicate 'somewhere in town' again. Then she opens his palms and tries to wiggle all of his fingers at once in that universal gesture for 'oooh spooooky!'. Surely there will be no mistranslatation this time.]
[ He is still... Not completely getting it. He stares at the spooky ghost hand out of habit, but his expression just goes a bit flat as he tries to guess what that could possibly mean. So he's going to take more or less a random guess. ]
[ He nods, since at this point, he's not quite as keen at keeping certain cards close to his chest. He laughs, then shrugs. ]
It's in poor shape, I'm assuming?
[ Wow, it sure seems like Break knows a lot about this town, actually... Though actually, he only knows a story about this town and nothing about it in specifics. That question is more of a guess, but it's definitely one that comes from something with a solid basis. ]
[ ugh don't be irritable undyne this is hard ok!! ]
[ Break sighs, but holds out both hands for her again. He'll go through the same process of listing out buildings for her to tap which one to narrow it down to. He'll list all of the buildings in town, but I'm just too lazy to list them all... ]
[ Now that's a surprise, and it shows rather clearly. He hadn't heard anything about the ocean, so he's a bit confused, and as such, he wants to make sure that he's understanding. And not Undyne misspelling... Sorry Undyne. ]
[ Luckily, he can, but this does not help his confusion at all... He had a picture in his mind for where the dead people were hanging out, but this is really throwing it off. ]
...There's a door to an ocean? [ he hopes that he's misunderstanding, though, since what does that even mean ]
[ God... He's tired. He's just tired, honestly, and Break sighs heavily as he reaches up to massage his brow. There's a pause, but he doesn't quite have another question to follow that up. ]
...I don't understand at all, so you're going to have to explain a bit more than that.
[Okay well first things first, Undyne is going to bring Break's hand up to his forehead so he can facepalm himself, because how exactly does he expect her to explain this when her methods are limited to vague writing and shoulder taps!!
But then she heaves out an enormous sigh and starts writing on his palm again. She starts with his right hand.]
[ This is at least easier to understand, and it gives him more to start with, because doors to the ocean... Come on, it's completely fair that you lose him at that part, gosh!! He murmurs each word as Undyne traces it out, but it gets him to frown by the end. ]
That's— [ Unexpected, actually. He had a better idea than most what was going on here, but that's new information. ]
The doors are showing up as people are killed this week.
[ That at least clicks, and Break frowns. He's thoughtful for a moment, but he nods slowly, though Undyne may not actually like what Break has to say. After all, it does imply that he knew that more people would be dying this week. ]
...It could be because they're sacrifices to the demons. They're different, somehow, but I didn't find out what the specific reason was. Just that it was necessary.
[ Considering he was expecting a punch to the face or something more violent, he'll pretty gladly take this option instead... He sighs, but nods. ]
All the demons have to take a sacrifice of their own to finish this, apparently, but that's about all I know. I... didn't know anything about doors, though.
[ Or that they really were that special. From what she had said, it had implied to him that it didn't matter much "who," though now he has to wonder how true that was. He sighs heavily and reaches up to rub a hand against his face tiredly. ]
It's one for each of the sins. So we still have quite a few more to go, unfortunately.
[Yeah. Just...give her a moment so she can go slam her head into the wall a few times. She'd punch him for not telling her any of this ahead of time, but she's pretty much treating Break like Sans now - aka fragile 1HP skeleton who she can't do violence to because they will probably die, so she just has to resort to hitting a wall and screaming!!
Once she calms down a bit, she'll come back and open up his right palm again.]
[ I mean, good, because he may not have 1HP, but he probably only has like, 5. He's delicate!! ]
Home?
[ He repeats that word in particular incredulously, since honestly, that portion of their dilemma had quickly become secondary to him. It had been his focus at first, certainly, but as soon as Gilbert had died, that had changed. At first, it was just abandoning the hope of returning at all, but with what he he been pulled into, it just became bringing back Gilbert first. From there, they could figure out the rest. It was no plan at all, but it was the best that they could do, or so he thought. ]
[HAHAHA SHE FUCKING WISHES because if that were the case she sure as hell would have started with that!! Instead she taps his right shoulder. Sorry to crush your hopes Break.]

Is it something about the town you're seeing? I do know that it's different from what I'm seeing, at least.
