hey big guy

just wanna let u know that if u dont see your brother around don't worry

hes just taking a lil vacation rn

HE SPOKE WITH YOU BEFORE DEPARTING??

[ there's about a minute between each text... ]

IT IS NOT UNLIKE SANS TO SIMPLY DISAPPEAR, BUT...

if you hear from him would you perhaps tell your amazing and not-at-all worried friend, papyrus?

[Wow. Two texts in and already Wade feels like he wants to cry. Ironically, this makes his texts more grammatically accurate.]

If I hear from him, I'll make him tell you himself, buddy. Better you hear it straight from the skeleton's mouth that he's okay than from someone else.

I know I'd want to hear from him personally if he were my brother.

i would like to hear from him, but he is not here

Which is fine!! I am quite alright! The Great Papyrus does not need a story to fall asleep at night! This will give me more time to complete me AMAZING PAPYRUS-ORIENTED TASKS!!

I will let you know if I hear from him, so that he may tell you himself how very safe he is! Everything will be alright, friend!! We need only to trust that he returns from his vacation safely! Which he will!

[ worried? Papyrus? nope. definitely not. not at all. figured out that this is probably not a vacation? probably not. probably not this skeleton. ]

[Oh Papyrus. Never bullshit a bullshitter. Being flippant in the face of anxiety is something Wade makes constant use of, and it's easy to spot the same technique in someone else's arsenal.]

Sans tells you bedtime stories? I'm not really surprised. He seems like the type of guy who'd be good at it.

Yes! Every

night! The greatest of all of the stories is Hide and Seek with Fluffy Bunny! Truly, a classic!!

The ending gets to me every time!!

[ this? Is nice...is nice. Better than being worried alone. Despite his best efforts to cool worries that spark as they rise, he can't help but think back to a conversation he had with Sans about the statues, and how Papyrus has...

...he's wanted to go check and make sure. To see. All day. But he just can't make himself do it.

Wade's company, even through a text message, is deeply appreciated. ]

[Innocence. Optimism. The kind of idealism usually only present in a young child. At first Wade is skeptical-- a cynic like him can't possibly be anything but-- but Papyrus doesn't seem like he's messing with him. Hadn't, actually, even in their previous encounter. Either this guy is really dedicated to his own front or every word out of his mouth is completely and totally sincere.

Wade secretly hopes that it's the latter.]

No kidding? Sounds like a great book. I'll have to read it sometime.

Or get Sans to read it to me, seeing as how he's a great storyteller and all.

Perhaps you could join us?!

But you must stay awake for the whole story!! So that we may discuss the ending and why it is so great!

But once it is over, we pretend to be asleep! So that way Sans leaves!!

He does not sleep well through the night, so we must be as convincing as possible!! When he is convinced by our outstanding ability of pretending, he will return to his room and rest at the appropriate time of the day!!

A brilliant plan, crafted by The Great Papyrus!!

[How is this guy even real? It's like finding an adorable puppy when you're having the worst day of your life. Wade doesn't know whether to laugh or cry.]

I don't know, he seems to sleep pretty well through the night when he's got someone to latch onto. At least that's been my experience.

TO...

...LATCH ON TO?

[Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on who you are), Wade has no idea of the storm he's close to unleashing.]

Oh sure. He gets super-clingy when he sleeps, I've noticed. Especially when he's drunk. It's kinda cute, actually.

[ it takes a few minutes for a response. ]

When he is drunk?

You have seen him while he is intoxicated? Here?

[...Fuck, was he not supposed to let that slip?]

Nah, now that I think about it, maybe he was just really sleepy. It's hard to tell with him, honestly.

[ another uncharacteristic couple of minutes go by. ]

That is very true! He is very lazy after all.

[ just relax. Wade is probably telling the truth, and Papyrus just! Has to believe that Wade wouldn't lie about something as important to Papyrus as Sans' physical health. It makes him feel uneasy, just thinking about it.

But. Perhaps it was just a slip up and Sans was really just sleepy? Yes, it's probably that.

Hopefully, it's just that. ]

[Great, now he has guilt attached to anxiety about Sans's whereabouts. Damn you, Sans. Damn you for making him lie to your adorable brother.]

Yeah, so I've noticed. It was almost surprising when he woke up before I did. I was sure I was gonna have to kick him out of bed eventually.

Do you both share a bed often???

[ less confused and curious, more grossed out. have you seen his bed before wade it's so unmade and awful and gross....... ]

Only a few times.

You know how it is.

Your best buddy comes over to hang out for a bit, one thing leads to another...

It just happens sometimes, you know?

Not like I'm gonna kick the guy out of bed or anything.

[Wade's either painfully oblivious to the point of being out of touch with reality or this is the most epic trolling session in history. Surprisingly, it's more than likely the former.]

Edited 2016-08-01 18:14 (UTC)

Only a few ti

[ there is a long moment of pause after the unfinished message is sent... ]

I do not know how it is!!!!! But!!! Rest assured that I, Studiator Papyrus, shall do my part to understand!!!

[...okay? He's not entirely sure what there is to understand (although maybe this dude just never had the experience of having friends crash at his place) but whatever, he'll roll with it.]

Sure thing, bro. Knowledge is power and all that.

I'll let you know if I see your brother, okay? He's probably napping in some hidey-hole in the castle somewhere, anyway.

* hey bro, you awake?

[ Of course he's awake, Papyrus barely sleeps in comparison with his extremely sedentary brother. Unless he's sick, or hurt. He, uh, really hopes neither of those are the case. He's pretty sure somebody would've told him. ]

[ of course, man. He basically hasn't slept. Papyrus? Tired? How very silly. What a silly notion. And even if he was, seeing the letters appear on his screen wake him enough to allow him to respond. ]

ALWAYS!!

YOU ARE ALSO AWAKE? AND BACK?

[ Sans is still a little too rattled from his run-in with Wade to launch a volley of all the awful puns he thought of while in Koriko, but trust that they are, eventually, coming. ]

* yeah, weird trip, I'll tell ya about it later.
* not too late for your bedtime story, right?

NO!!!

BY WHICH I MEAN, IT IS NOT TOO LATE FOR A STORY!!!

SO YES, IT IS

IT IS FINE!!

Edited 2016-07-22 02:23 (UTC)

EVERYTHING IS FINE AND YES!! I WILL PREPARE MYSELF!!

[ THE FAST SKELETON PREPARES VERY QUICKLY FOR BED. +20 EXCITE. ]

Edited (I SUCK AT CHANGING THE SUBJECTS OF THESE TAGSSSSS) 2016-07-22 02:24 (UTC)

[ Only a few things make a place 'home', and it never is without his brother. In light of what Wade had told him (well, yelled, more like), Sans has a moment to appreciate a little more the sheer resilience Papyrus has. He's so cool. ]

* heh, ok.
* I'll see you soon.

[ Which means... In about 10 minutes, since he wasn't kidding about running on empty, and has to raid the fridge for a snack before he makes his way to Papyrus's room. Maybe his roommate won't be in again, which means he can sit on the trunk that sits at the foot of his bed while he reads. ]

[ It would be a lie to say that Steven's not on the tired side. It's been turning out that Papyrus-themed word scrambles are complex beasts, even for someone who's fused with him: he and Zuko and Rin have gotten most of them handled, but some things simply escape them.

He knows he saw Papyrus around the emergency broadcast and that he's dealing with some problems of his own. He also knows that Sans seemed positive they should drop Papyrus a line. Who could possibly be better at this puzzle, right? ]

hey papyrus!! it's steven! i'm in one of the cages and our puzzle is really you themed. do you have time for a phone call or are you busy right now?

ME THEMED?!?! THAT'S THE BEST KIND OF THEME!!!

I AM SLIGHTLY HUNG UP AT THE MOMENT!! LITERALLY!! BUT THE GREAT PAPYRUS IS ALWAYS HERE FOR QUESTIONS ABOUT QUESTIONS ABOUT ME!!!

[ in reality, even though Sanji is sending a text at this very moment, and Papyrus has a moment, he's not sure if he can muster a proper sounding greeting.

Or much of anything. ]

well it's kind of a word scramble! i think i figured this one out but i just want to doublecheck so that we don't get it wrong and let another shadow in. you can take your time! there are other words we have to work on

i just wanted to borrow a cool guy's laugh.
