Date: 2018-07-23 05:59 pm (UTC)YES???? OH MY GOD, YES IT IS!!! STOP THAT!!!
[He huffs and quickly regains his composure as he hands over the gift to Sans.]
YES YES, I KNOW I DIDN'T HAVE TO, BUT I WANTED TO!! YOU DESERVE A GOOD BIRTHDAY GIFT TOO!!!
[He can't help but laugh along when the totally not a prank jar of nuts reveals itself to contain a bunch of fuzzy snakes. And hey, 4 gets a present in itself, too! This present is the best.
It's almost impossibly hard to, but he is able to resist yelling at him to cut it with the puns. Right. It's his birthday, he can say all of the awful puns that he wants to. Okay. Okay. That doesn't mean he has to like it, though.]
AUGH, IT'S NOT JUST THAT!! LISTEN, THERE IS A SECOND PART TO YOUR PRESENT, AND IT'S UPSTAIRS!! UP ON THE ROOF OF THE MANSION!!! COME ON, I'LL SHOW YOU!!
[He hurriedly gestures to the hallway, hustling in place. Oh man this is going to be so great!]
action
Date: 2018-07-24 09:19 pm (UTC)[He generally tries not to be self-deprecating in front of Papyrus, anyway. Better to just focus on how happy his brother is about all this. He's so genuinely happy about the idea of celebrating Sans's birthday.]
[God, Papyrus is so cool.]
ooh...a key to something on the roof, huh. i like this. got an air of mystery. alright, bro, lead the way.
[He follows Papyrus out into the hallway.]
action
Date: 2018-07-27 12:12 pm (UTC)[As much as he wants to speed through the hallway at breakneck speed, he opts to only keep a few inches in front of Sans. It's one thing that his lazy brother just woke up, but Sans also isn't very fast to begin with. He's like a snail, honestly!
Opening up the door to the roof, he hurries out of sight for a brief moment before returning with a hefty black case, gently setting it down as if it were fine china.]
TA-DAAAAA!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SANS!!! OPEN IT, OPEN IT!!!
[And indeed, when Sans opens the case, he'll find...a nice, high quality telescope. It's not just a telescope, either, there's all of the accessories needed to get the most out of anyone's viewing experience: a sturdy, folded up tripod to prop up the telescope, a couple of different lenses to attach on the scope to view things closer than ever...all in one relatively easy to carry case. Well...it was easy to carry for Papyrus, he's honestly not sure how Sans is going to fare carrying it.]
I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET THE CLOSET TO DO WHAT I WANTED IT TO DO FOR ONCE! I KNOW YOU ALREADY HAVE A FEW TELESCOPES, BUT I FIGURED THAT YOU OUGHT TO HAVE A REALLY, INCREDIBLY NICE TELESCOPE AS WELL!! AND, I FIGURED THAT SINCE IT'S NIGHT ALREADY, WE COULD TAKE IT FOR A TEST RUN RIGHT NOW!!!
action
Date: 2018-07-28 04:16 am (UTC)[His brother's always been good at pacing himself and not leaving Sans behind, and he doesn't even complain about it. Sans follows him on up to the roof and hovers in the doorway when Papyrus darts off to retrieve the gift.]
oh man. i'm excited, bro. is it gonna be a whole box of suspicious nuts this time?
[He's definitely curious when Papyrus returns with the case. It's like a gigantic briefcase, and Sans honestly has no idea what could be inside. His telescope back in the Underground was light enough to carry around without a case. The one he's been using in Wonderland is even lower quality, and has kind of just lived elsewhere on the roof for over a year now.]
[He's grinning from ear to metaphorical ear as he crouches down, key in hand.]
or maybe a box of those screaming plastic chickens? one of those six foot whoopee cushions?
[He opens the case before Papyrus can get too impatient and...]
[Oh. Oh wow. He has to blink a few times to make sure he's seeing this right. It's...a telescope. The kind of high quality scope he always secretly hoped he could get his hands on once he was on the Surface--the real one. The scope he's been using was pretty much just the first one he could grab out of a closet, but this...Papyrus must have spent a lot of time getting the closet to work just right.]
[He studies all the different parts while Papyrus talks, his eyesockets big as dinner plates. Interchangeable eyepieces, moon filters, magnifiers, two Barlow lenses, a tripod, lens wipes, moisture guards...this is insane. He never actually let himself believe that he could ever get a scope this good, never mind with all the proper accessories. How...how much research must Papyrus have done beforehand?]
[There's a sudden surge of guilt in his soul that makes him want to snap the case closed and tell Papyrus he can't accept this. It's too much. It's too...good. He doesn't deserve something like this. He's pretty sure that if this was the real Surface and Papyrus had actually spent the sort of money required to get a scope this good, he'd be having a bit of a meltdown right now. He doesn't deserve this. It's part of the reason he's so bad about his birthday, because he never feels like he deserves the attention, or all the people wasting time and effort and resources on him. Getting gifts at all makes his soul twist into knots, and getting gifts of this quality make ]
[He grits his teeth a little to keep it in. He's...doing better about this lately. It's not as visceral a feeling as it was two years ago, when Mettaton gave him a handmade hoodie that Sans is still wearing. He can feel himself trying to shut down, but he doesn't allow it. He's doing better. He's okay. He's not gonna freak out.]
[He doesn't trust himself to say anything just yet, though, so he doesn't. He just gets back to his feet and wordlessly hugs his brother as tight as he can.]
action
Date: 2018-08-02 12:12 am (UTC)When he is done with his spiel, he looks over at Sans and his new telescope in anticipation. He definitely knows that Sans isn’t a fan of his own birthday for some strange reason, but he also figures that…well, maybe that can change. He highly doubts he’ll ever see his brother get excited in the same way Papyrus gets excited about his own birthday, but his birthday is still a cause for a celebration! It's not just any old regular day!
As his brother continues to say nothing, Papyrus becomes a little more concerned. Was this...too much? Maybe it was too much. But...wait, no, he shouldn't be overthinking about his gift! He just wanted to let his brother know in some way that he still appreciates all he has done! And, if someone as great as the Great Papyrus can have a great birthday with great gifts, then so should his lazy, but...still cool brother.
He almost gets caught by surprise when he suddenly feels the tight embrace, but is quick to return the hug just as tightly. He...doesn't think he messed up, giving him this gift? Why would he? He...his brother deserves nice things, too.
Nervousness is starting to bubble up in him, so he fills the dead air with some frantic talking.]
I TRIED MAKING SURE THAT IT HAD EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEEDED TO REALLY MAKE SURE THAT YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THE STARS OUT HERE, EVEN THOUGH YOU'VE PROBABLY SEEN THEM LIKE A THOUSAND TIMES, BUT STILL!!! I DIDN'T FORGET ANYTHING, DID I???
action
Date: 2018-08-02 04:25 am (UTC)it's perfect, bro. it's perfect.
[His voice is a little thick with emotion, but hopefully Papyrus's shirt is muffling most of it.]
i love it, i really do. i don't--
[No, don't talk about how you don't deserve it. Don't ruin this.]
i mean. thank you. thank you so much.
action
Date: 2018-08-04 12:02 am (UTC)I’M SO GLAD!! IT TOOK ME FOREVER TO GET EVERYTHING, I PROBABLY HAVE AT LEAST…LIKE, 20 MORE WEIRD TELESCOPES I GOT FROM THE CLOSET, IF YOU WANT THOSE, TOO. I FINALLY BESTED THE CLOSET’S TRICKERIES!!
AND…AND, YOU’RE WELCOME, BROTHER. I LOVE YOU!!
[Heh, he’s got a pile of wonky telescopes, his brother had a pile of wonky action figures from getting his gift last month…maybe they should just trade each other their pile of stuff.]
YOU SHOULD TRY OUT YOUR NEW TELESCOPE RIGHT NOW!!! I TRIED LOOKING UP SOME DIFFERENT CONSTELLATIONS THAT WOULD BE VISIBLE AT THIS MOMENT, BUT…I’M NOT SURE IF THE SURFACE’S CONSTELLATIONS WILL MATCH UP WITH THE CONSTELLATIONS HERE???
[He looks up at the starry sky while still keeping his grip on his brother. It’s probably different. Everything here is different. BAH.]
…WE COULD ALWAYS MAKE UP OUR OWN CONSTELLATIONS, TOO, IF THE STARS HERE ARE ALL WEIRD.
action
Date: 2018-08-04 03:42 am (UTC)[Papyrus spent that much time and effort on him. And...logically, he knows that Papyrus spends that kind of time and effort on pretty much everything, and he also knows that Papyrus loves him. But that nasty little voice that's always in the back of his skull never stops reminding him that Sans isn't worth it. That he's just a parasite, a leech draining away people's time and effort and love.]
[Maybe he's getting a little better at ignoring it, or at least trying to.]
[He takes a shaky breath and squeezes Papyrus a little tighter.]
i love you too, papyrus.
[Just gotta. Get that out there. Finally he pulls back and slowly lets go. He's grinning from ear to metaphorical ear when he looks up at his brother.]
yeah. yeah, we gotta take it for a test spin. um...yeah, the constellations kinda change every night, but we uh, we can make them up as we find 'em. and i can, uh...with a scope this good i could show you other stuff, too. deep space objects. well uh, i mean, they're not real either, but they look real. nebulae, star clusters...
[He sort of laughs a little and rubs the side of his skull.]
heh, s-sorry, bro, i'm just...kinda mind-blown, heh.
action
Date: 2018-08-06 03:50 am (UTC)IF THE CONSTELLATIONS CHANGE SO QUICKLY EVERY NIGHT, THEN THERE MUST BE SOME SORT OF WAY TO RECORD THE CONSTELLATIONS WE FIND ANOTHER WAY!!! THAT WAY, WE’LL HAVE PROOF THAT WHAT WE FIND REALLY DOES EXIST!!!
…OH, I GOT IT!!!
[He quickly pulls out his phone!!]
IF WE PUT THE CAMERA UP TO THE VIEWER, THEN WE COULD TAKE PICTURES OF EVERYTHING THAT WE FIND!!! NYEH HEH HEH!!!
[Sometimes his genius is staggering!
He laughs along with his brother and playfully nudges him. Why did he get so worked up about him not liking his present in the first place, anyway? There was nothing to worry about!]
I STRIVE TO BRING ONLY THE BEST GIFTS!!! I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING ALL OF THE DIFFERENT STARS AND OTHER WEIRD DEEP SPACE STUFF!!! I’M ASSUMING THAT STAR CLUSTERS ARE JUST…A BUNCH OF STARS PUT TOGETHER, BUT A NEBULAE JUST SOUNDS LIKE A BRAND OF COOL CLOTHING.
[He hurriedly looks up at the sky again, looking this way and that. Who knew that there was more space stuff hiding beyond the stars?]
action
Date: 2018-08-08 02:09 am (UTC)[He's very cautious and attentive as he puts together the scope. It's probably one of the few times Papyrus has seen him pay close attention to something. One loose screw and pieces could start to fall off, though, or the tripod could buckle. Can't go ruining the best telescope he's ever owned right after getting it.]
hee hee, you'd be right. star clusters are kinda like...star families. there's two different kinds. one kind is all very old stars, all closely packed together. the other kind is for new, baby stars. there's usually fewer of them then, but they're a lot brighter. and they're more spread out, so they make neat patterns. kinda like tiny constellations. and nebulae are these colorful clouds left over after a star dies. sometimes the clouds start to form new stars. it's this cyclical thing.
[He'd normally be way, way less into talking about any of this, even around Papyrus. It's nerd stuff, and no one really likes hearing about nerd stuff. Plus he's Sans. He's not really...supposed to get passionate about anything. Not like this.]
[But Papyrus wouldn't have gotten him the scope if he didn't already know how much this all means to Sans. And he's gotten a bit better about talking about things he likes. Part of that whole honesty thing.]
oh, and...i haven't shown you a binary star yet, have i?
[That was the last Papyrus.]
i gotta find a binary star tonight and show you. they're neat.
action
Date: 2018-08-13 03:56 am (UTC)[Papyrus is pretty amazed to see that Sans is really taking his time putting this together. He’s so used to seeing his brother just…half assing it when it comes to building things, so this is a nice surprise. The fact that he’s already taking his time and putting so much care into it cements it for him: this was probably the best choice for a present he could have made!
He smiles and nods as Sans explains all of the differences between the different star clusters and the nebulae. He’s not going to pretend that he’s an astronomy expert like his brother is, but at least he’s wording everything in a way that he can understand. He’d never say this out loud, but he can’t usually understand all of the technical jargon that science has.
…is this the most he’s heard Sans talk about something? It really feels like it. Wowie, he’s REALLY in a good mood!!]
A BINARY STAR??? WHAT’S THAT??? IT SOUNDS LIKE…A MORE ADVANCED STAR.
action
Date: 2018-08-15 03:07 am (UTC)[It might even help to track patterns in the sky, see if anything ever repeats itself. Maybe Wonderland has a yearly cycle? Assuming Sans is here for that much longer, he could theoretically figure out how to predict the night sky. Wouldn't that be something?]
[The telescope is pretty intuitive, despite how complicated it is. Another minute and Sans is tightening the last screw, then stepping back to make sure everything is level.]
binary stars are my favorite, i think. hehe, i guess you could think of them as more advanced.
[He peers through the scope, adjusts the focus and then grins. God, that's crisp. He swivels the scope slowly, trying to find a good star.]
binary stars are basically...double stars. so, sometimes a star will have a--a partner star. one star is usually big and bright, and the second one is much smaller and dimmer. but they orbit each other. pretty much their whole lives. sometimes stars like that are born together, or sometimes a bigger star will attract a smaller one into its orbit. i guess it just...
[He's glad it's dark out and he's facing away from Papyrus, because this is going to sound so cheesy, and he's pretty sure he's blushing a little.]
i dunno, heh. it just kinda reminds me of us.
action
Date: 2018-08-21 12:26 am (UTC)[Not to mention that they could also use the scrapbook to capture even more memories that happen in Wonderland as well! It might be good if one of them leaves but then comes back again. The other brother could show them the scrapbook, and that could jog their memory!!
It’s a huuuuuuge stretch, but Papyrus thinks it can be done, even if he can’t exactly recall the last two times he has been here himself. He just needs to try harder at that!
As Sans completes setting up the telescope, Papyrus sits down beside him on the concrete, looking up at the stars himself. He takes in what Sans is saying about binary stars, doing his upmost to commit it to memory. He’s not even sure if he can find a binary star without the telescope’s help, but who knows? He might get lucky!
Papyrus can’t help but chuckle when Sans finishes his bit and playfully nudges him.]
NYEH HEH HEH!!! SO I’M LIKE THE BIG SHINY STAR AND YOU’RE THE TINY NOT-SO-BRIGHT STAR?? THAT SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT.
[He smiles wide. Yeah, this is a pretty good analogy for the two of them. The big, confident star with the smaller, more laid back star, hanging out with each other for their entire lives. It’s a constant that he doesn’t really want to let go of. Sure, of course Papyrus wants to achieve bigger and better things, but he wants to do it with his brother around. It’d just be…weird without him. If his brother’s too lazy to go up to the top, then he’ll just have to carry him up there with him!]
SO WHEREVER THAT BIG BRIGHT STAR GOES, THE SMALLER STAR WILL FOLLOW, RIGHT?? AND IS IT THE SAME IF THE SMALLER STAR WANDERS OFF SOMEWHERE TOO??
action
Date: 2018-08-22 05:51 am (UTC)[It would be good for both record keeping and as something like insurance. Memory in solid form, kind of like Max's photo gallery.]
[He's quiet after he finishes the explanation, wondering what Papyrus is going to think about all that. It's corny, sure, but maybe it also...sounds weird. People aren't supposed to be dependent on each other the way binary stars are, right?]
[He grins again when Papyrus nudges him.]
hehe, exactly. there's no way i'd be a big, bright star. so that's gotta be you.
[He remembers a similar talk with Mettaton. Stars are kind of like souls. Even a tiny, withered dim soul like Sans's is at least still a star.]
uh...heh, sorta. the metaphor kinda falls apart when you dig into it too much...
[He also doesn't want to say that sometimes the smaller star siphons off material from the larger star, leeching its energy until both stars are destroyed in a supernova. That seems...kinda morbid.]
but...yeah. heh. wherever one star goes...the other goes too.
[He steps back from the telescope and beams at Papyrus.]
found one. wanna see?
action
Date: 2018-08-30 02:32 am (UTC)[Which isn’t something to be sad about! There’s not a lot of people that can compare to Papyrus’s greatness.]
WOWIE!!! YOU FOUND ONE ALREADY?? LET ME SEE!!!
[Papyrus jumps back up and cautiously looks through the telescope’s eyepiece. He definitely wants to be careful around his brother’s new present. He can’t go breaking it after he’s only had it for three minutes!
It takes him a little bit to try and locate it himself, but soon enough, he finds it, clear as day. Two stars close together, one big and bright, the other small and dull.
Just like the two of them.]
WOWIE…THIS IS INCREDIBLE!! I DIDN’T KNOW THAT TWO STARS COULD BE SO CLOSE TO EACH OTHER!! I’D THINK THAT THEY WOULD COLLIDE INTO EACH OTHER OR SOMETHING…
[He doesn’t say anything else for a while, he just continues to stare at the two stars.]
I’M…VERY GLAD THAT I’VE BEEN ABLE TO STAY HERE IN WONDERLAND TO CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY, BROTHER. I WAS WORRIED THAT I WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO BE HERE FOR THIS.
[He remembers hearing that the previous two times he’s been here, he didn’t stay for a long time. He wonders if this is the longest he’s stayed in Wonderland yet?]
action
Date: 2018-09-01 04:08 am (UTC)[Papyrus will always be the brightest thing in the universe.]
[He chuckles and steps back to let his brother look. This is a part of astronomy that's still kind of new to him--the whole getting to show things to other people and watch their reactions thing. It's--nice. Really nice. Downright rewarding. It makes him feel like this hobby of his isn't all that silly and dumb and nerdy.]
heh, yeah. it's kinda complicated, but it has to do with gravity. so it's kinda like they hold onto each other, at just the right distance.
[Speaking of silly, he's getting emotional again, and it gets worse when Papyrus goes and says that. For a moment it's actually hard for him to maintain his composure.]
yeah. i, uh. i'm really glad too. this, heh, it's a good birthday.
[He hasn't had a lot of those.]
i'm happy, bro.
[Another silly thing, but he's felt the past several years like he needs to actually tell someone when he's happy. Like as...a witness, almost. Confirmation that it's real, that it happened.]
[He's gonna melt if he lets himself get any more mushy.]
uh, wanna see if i can find another one?
action
Date: 2018-09-03 04:30 am (UTC)[Papyrus doesn’t know much about space, but isn’t space famous for having no gravity? It’s very confusing.
He continues to stare up at the binary star and only manages to pull himself away from the telescope when Sans finally mentions that he’s happy.
This. This is rare. He’s been around his brother long enough to know when he’s literally putting on a smile and when he’s genuinely happy.
He can’t help but pull Sans into a quick one arm hug.]
EXCELLENT!!! THAT’S FANTASTIC, BROTHER!!! I’M HAPPY THAT YOU’RE HAPPY!!!
[He’s really been making great strides and Papyrus couldn’t be happier for him for it. The fact that he’s so happy on a day that’s usually not so great for him…it makes his soul want to soar!]
OH, RIGHT!!! YEAH, YEAH LET’S DO THAT. I WONDER IF YOU CAN FIND ANY PLANETS THROUGH THAT TELESCOPE AS WELL!!!
action
Date: 2018-09-04 11:24 pm (UTC)[Sort of at least, but he's not gonna get into all that.]
[Papyrus understands immediately and Sans can't help a very quiet almost-giggle when Papyrus hugs him. God, he really does have the best brother in the world.]
yeah, well, i'm happy that you're happy that i'm happy.
[Take that!]
[He goes back to moving the telescope here and there, scanning the sky.]
i bet i could. i've found planets before, though none of them are the normal ones.
action
Date: 2018-09-11 01:20 am (UTC)[He ponders this for a moment. This pretty much goes against everything he’s seen and heard about for space. Granted, the only real exposure he had about space was not only his brother, but also the anime he watched with Alphys.]
I’M PRETTY SURE THE ANIME ALPHYS SHOWED ME LIED TO ME, THEN. THERE WAS THIS SUPER COOL OUTER SPACE SCENE IN ONE OF THE MEW KISSY CUTIE EPISODES, AND MEW MEW WAS JUST SCREAMING OUT DIFFERENT ATTACK NAMES WHILE FIGHTING A GIANT METEOR. I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!! WHY WOULD A PERFECTLY GOOD CARTOON SHOW FOR COOL PEOPLE AND BABIES BUT MOSTLY COOL PEOPLE LIE TO ME LIKE THAT???
[For shame, Mew Mew Kissy Cutie.]
OH YEAH??? WELL, I’M HAPPY THAT YOU’RE HAPPY THAT I’M HAPPY THAT YOU’RE HAPPY THAT I’M HAPPY THAT YOU’RE HAPPY!!! TIMES INFINITY!!!
[CHECKMATE.
He stops his childish bantering to stare up at the night sky, as if he can also see the stars up close without the telescope.]
HUH, DIFFERENT PLANETS?? HOW DIFFERENT ARE THEY???
action
Date: 2018-09-12 04:43 am (UTC)[Come to the dark side, bro.]
[He actually giggles at that, but catches himself quickly and turns it into a more normal-sounding laugh. Yeesh. He really is in a good mood.]
well, they're not the solar system planets, that's for sure. they change every night too. i dunno what kind they are. it's hard to tell that kinda thing without doing some more intense science.
[Spectrographs, chemical analysis, that sort of thing.]
action
Date: 2018-09-26 01:38 am (UTC)[He clearly looks worried that he's going to slowly morph into a nerd, not interested in training or doing any more cool things! At this rate, he'll start to become lazy, just like Sans!!!
Oh GOD NO.]
I AM NOT A NERD!!! I ENJOY COOL THINGS LIKE FIGHTING AND LIFTING WEIGHTS AND OTHER MISCELLANIOUS DEEDS!!!
BUT...THAT SHOW ALPHYS SHOWED ME HAD SO MANY COOL ACTION SCENES, AND I'VE BEEN USING THOSE AS INSPIRATIONS FOR NEW BONE ATTACKS. HM...
[And now he feels torn. Does he swear off anime forever, even if he kind of likes it? What do the people here think about anime, anyway?? If an overwhelming majority of them don't like it, then he should probably stop watching it too. That way, more people will like him!
He quickly shakes off his personal dilemma and looks up at the night sky.]
OKAY, THAT DEFINITELY DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. ARE THE PLANETS JUST ZIPPING BY AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT?? OR ARE WE TELEPORTING EVERYWHERE?? OR...
[He squints his eyes, trying to come up with any more ideas.]
SANS, WHERE ARE WE??
action
Date: 2018-10-04 08:12 pm (UTC)[Even if that's still one of his biggest fears.]
that's cool, though. some of those animes have those really neat attacks and action scenes...it makes sense you'd be inspired.
[He looks sidelong at Papyrus.]
nah, it's more like...i mean, none of these stars and such... [He gestures at the sky.] none of it's...really real, bro. wonderland just makes it look real. all of that stuff up there, it was just...built. they're not real stars. so...they don't hafta obey the laws of physics.
[He's known it all along, of course, but saying it out loud really is a bummer.]
it's still nice to look at, though. it looks more real than those shiny stones underground, right?
DATE. NIGHT.
Date: 2018-11-17 04:35 am (UTC)[In any case, if he did have nervous energy, he would have spent it all in cleaning up his room. As it is, he just sort of....moved things aside, vacuumed a bit and had Papyrus help him make his bed. Haha, bed. Yeah.]
[It's not a big deal. It's not like they haven't done this a bunch of times already. More publicly than this, even. It's just--it's just that tonight his mood is lining up with things, and it's chilly outside which means he's naturally inclined to seek warmth, and...just a sort of combination of things that means he keeps staring at his (made) bed like it's a stranger.]
[Whatever. It's fine. Not a big deal. Might not even happen. They're just gonna do snacks and booze and a movie. Another casual fun night with his--uh--]
[His--
[Boyfriend. Sweet fucking Christ. They need to invent a better, less corny-ass word.]
[Sans lets out a sort of bemused sigh and double-checks that his TV is set up right while he waits for Mettaton to arrive.]
DATE NIGHT!!!!!!!
Date: 2018-11-18 04:59 am (UTC)He knows that Sans l-...loves him. He knows he feels the same for him. His soul flutters in its container at the thought as he knocks on the door, grinning rather foolishly. He brought a bottle wine, nothing terribly strong, but that nostalgic monster alcohol that they both like. He hears Sans moving around inside and attempts to steady himself.
Ok. Show time.]
Sans! Darling! Are you ready for our date?
shreiKEING
Date: 2018-11-18 05:17 am (UTC)[Anyway he should answer.]
yeah, coming.
[Oh dear god, what if he thinks that's a euphemism? What if Mettaton thinks he's trying too hard? Haha except that's impossible, he's Sans, he barely ever tries at all, at anything. Fuck. Just open the stupid door.]
[He opens the stupid door and looks up at Mettaton.]
[Fuck. Shit. Holy fuck. He's gorgeous. He's always gorgeous.]
[Sans loves him so fucking much.]
hey.
[He's smiling again already, but this time it's softer, and this time he doesn't bother trying to stop it. This is what they mean about the anticipation being worse than the thing itself. It's just Mettaton. They've been doing this for so long already. No need to freak out. It's safe. They're both safe. Like home.]
[He pushes the door open wider.]
check it out. i cleaned.
[Sort of.]
