[It's hard. Maybe it's impossible. You can't just tell someone not to feel something. How many times have people told Sans not to blame himself for something? It's impossible. It just doesn't work like that. Someone with as much integrity and determination as Papyrus is going to blame themselves. Someone with as much self-hate as Sans is going to blame themselves.]
[It's unbreakable. But Papyrus telling him he'll try, it's...it's something. They say that acknowledging it is the first step. They just never say what the next steps are supposed to be.]
yeah. just wonderland.
[He feels like he's going to just go to pieces. How many times has this happened between them? How many times has it gone so, so bad, and then they sit like this just trying to hold each other together?]
i'd never blame you, bro. never. you know that.
[It could never be Papyrus's fault. It's just as impossible as getting either of them to stop kicking themselves.]
we'll...both do better next time.
[Will it matter? Will Wonderland care how hard they're trying? No one tries as hard as Papyrus, and yet still...]
[How long before Wonderland makes Papyrus give up? A shudder runs through Sans at the very thought.]
good. i'm glad. i couldn't...i couldn't stand it if this place made you like...like me.
