[Sans hugs him even tighter, burying his face against Papyrus's middle. God, he's so glad Papyrus is here. He's so thankful for this. It's been so damn long since they had a proper holiday together.]
[Papyrus hugs him even tighter in response, leaning a little bit more into the embrace.]
I LOVE YOU TOO, BROTHER.
[He knew that the gift would be a hit (because what gift of Papyrus's wouldn't be a hit?), but to see Sans this moved by his present...he really did hit the nail on the head this time. At least now, Papyrus can take comfort in the fact that if he ever leaves, Sans won't truly be alone.]

[It's okay if it's a little weird. It's still Papyrus. He'll always be Papyrus.]
[He practically lights up at that declaration.]
i--i hope we can both stay here, bro. if not forever, then...then a good long while.

[He leans his head down so that his forehead is touching the top of his brother's skull.]
AND, AND…I WANT US TO STAY HERE FOREVER TOO. I CAN’T EVEN IMAGINE GOING BACK TO THE UNDERGROUND NOW!!
[Nor does he particularly want to, honestly.]
