oh, gravity's everywhere. even people have gravity, though it's real small. you might be thinking of sound. there's no sound in space.
[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.
[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???
heh, yeah, that's pretty common. tv and movies and such put explosions in space cause they look cooler. heh, wait, so you really sat through a whole anime once? aw, bro, i'm proud of you. you're joining the nerd ranks. slowly but surely.
[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.]
WAIT. NERD RANKS?? I MEAN, NOW I KNOW THAT ANIME ISN'T JUST STRICTLY CARTOONS FOR BABIES, BUT...
[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.]
hey, nothing wrong with being a bit of a nerd, yanno? don't worry, you'll never be as bad as me.
[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?
