Training. Cooking. Sleeping. Repeat.
Training. Cooking. Sleeping. Repeat.

Every day was getting to be the same for Papyrus. Even doing things like cooking, one of his favorite things to do in the whole underground, was beginning to seem more like a chore.
He didn't bicker with Sans as much as he used to, he doesn't remind him to go to his post anymore, infact Papyrus hardly doesn't attend to his own post anymore!
And lastly, he's been canceling his training and cooking lessons with Undyne all week.

He just felt.. drained.

So here he was, sitting on the couch, watching the Mettaton Show©

"Get ready darlings~ because on todays show, One lucky caller is gonna have a chance to have a talk with me! One on one!
So call, 414-XXX-XXX-"

"PAPYRUS ARE YOU GONNA TRY TO CALL FOR THE INTERVIEW?-"
Papyrus jumped at the sudden yet familiar voice,

"NYEH?? SANS WHERE DID YOU COME FROM??"
Sans teleported near his brother and chuckled,
"I was in the kitchen the whole time, did you really not see me?"

"I.. guess I didn't, my apologies brother."
Papyrus gave what sounded to be a forced chuckle.

"Oh yeah, pap? How come you haven't been going to your post lately? You're usually the one reminding me."

Papyrus frowned at the question, has his new habits been that noticeable?
"O-oh! Well you see.. I haven't been really feeling well, under the weather I suppose."

"Papyrus, we're skeletons, we can't get sick."
Sans reminded, Papyrus made a 'are you serious..?'
type look to him.

"No no, not that kind of sick. I mean.. tired sick."

Sans raised a (non existent) eyebrow. He sat himself down on the couch next to his younger brother, what was going on? He hasn't seen Papyrus this down in years. Which was when his Royal Guard outfilt got torn, but Toriel fixed it for him in the end.

"Like.. stressed out?"

"Exactly! But.. I don't know why. It's like a switch went off in my skull or something, brother."
Papyrus sighed,
"Everything I liked to do or worked hard for seems nothing more then a chore.. even cooking pasta is stressful for me now. So I've been trying to relax but, I don't know.. I just feel like no matter what I do it's not getting better."

Sans sighed, how did he not notice this sooner? How naive could he be?
But since he knew now, it was time to take action to help his little brother..
But what could help him?

"Cmon.. what would you recommend someone if they're feeling stressed, I've had to try everything in the book once or twice.."
Sans thought.

...

Then it hit'em like a brick.

"Hey, paps? Can I suggest something to help with your stress?"

Papyrus's eye sockets widened with curiosity, "Certainly brother! I'm open to anything to help this feeling go away."
Papyrus was now fully facing his brother, "So what is it?"

"Okay, it's going to sound weird at first, but I promise it helps. It's something I used to do when we were younger."

Sans took a deep breath,
"It's called age regression. It's where you regress into a mindset of a kid, basically relieving childhood. Stuffed animals, favorite childhood movies, all of that stuff ". From personal experience, it's really helpful because-"

"No!"
Papyrus shouted, "I'm not a babybones Sans! I'm sorry, but isn't there something else?"

"You didn't even let me finish explaining, bro."
Sans chuckled awkwardly, "But anyway, I know it sounds weird, but it's worth a shot right?"

"I.. I don't know Sans. I really appreciate you trying to help me brother, from the bottom of my soul I really do! But, I can't."
Sans sighed,
"I understand, it's okay."

"There is other ways for dealing with stress, so it's no biggie."
Sans stood up from the couch and yawned, "But I'm gonna go nap, we can talk about this more tomorrow."

"WHA?- It's only 6:15 at night brother!"

"15 minutes passed my bedtime,"
Sans joked, "Goodnight paps, see you in the morning."
And with that, Sans teleported into his room.
Leaving Papyrus by himself.

He crossed his arms,
"Age regression.. did he really used to do it? Maybe I could.. too?"

Papyrus shook his head at the thought,
"No.. there is other ways."

"Right..?"

~Tomorrow~

Papyrus POV

Sans went to get some work done with Alphyus at her lab. And I'm just at our house again, not at my post. It feels.. miserable almost being away for so long, but no matter what I do I can't bring myself to do anything either.
Jeez, what the heck is happening with me?

In my car bed, I'm laying there staring at the ceiling, it just seems relaxing right now.. watching the fan go in a circular motion.
I sighed, referring back to the conversation me and my brother had last night.

"I understand, it's okay."

"There is other ways for dealing with stress, so it's no biggie."

I feel kind of bad for reacting the way I did but, truly, what was my brother thinking?
Me?? The Great Papyrus act like a baby bones? That's!-
That's..

~3rd Person POV~

Papyrus got up from his bed and began to walk downstairs, putting on his scarf, he walked outside to the wintery town of Snowdin.
Feeling the coldness run through his bones made him smile, it felt nice to get outside.
He walked around back the house, and went inside of a secret place that only him and sans knew about.

It was a small lab that Sans spent many nights in when they were kids, of course sans was older, but only by little.
Papyrus went in the closet the lab had and started to rummage through everything he could find.

"Aha! There you are."
Papyrus picked up a box from the closet and began to make his way out of the small lab, then back this his home to retreat to his room.

~TimeSkip~

"I can't believe I'm really going to do this.. but, I suppose it's worth a shot!"

The box Papyrus had recovered from the lab was infact, his old baby stuff. He doesn't know why Sans kept it, he never saw Sans have anything of his own from when he was younger?
But that was a question for another time.

What was before him was: A sippy cup, some old racing toy cars, fighting dolls, and-

"Oh! I almost forgot!"
Papyrus went to his bed quickly and grabbed his sleeping buddy, Puffy!
It was his cute bunny stuffed animal he's had since he was young.

He sat back down on the floor with his bunny in his lap.

...

..

"So.. now what?"
Papyrus questioned himself, "I guess I'm supposed to play but.. how will I know if this will really work?"

No.. now wasnt the time for questions!
Papyrus felt determination run through him, he grabbed the sippy cup and went downstairs to pour some juice in a cup, and later made a snack for himself.
He placed it on the couch, along with his dolls and stuffies, and sat between all of his things.
"Hm.. what shall I watch?"

Papyrus flickered through the channels,
The Mettaton show?
He's seen every episode by now, surely he'd be more then happy to watch it again, but he wasn't sure if this would help him regress
A cooking show?
Sounds boring right now.

He paused to a show that read, "Ruby Gloom"
It seemed interesting enough, so he kept it on.

Taking a bite of his food, he allowed himself to relax. His mind, his bones, his soul.. all started to feel at ease.

He bopped his head to the best as the theme song played,
"Nyeheh! This is kinda catchy, I like this so far!"

~TimeSkip~

"What do you mean you won't gwo to the dwance?! You pwomised you'd dance with me!"
Papyrus was playing with his action figures, he was pretending it was a Monster Prom! A heated argument was surely brewing!

"I.. I'm sowwy, but I cwant dance with yo' anymore.."

"WHY??"

"Because.. I cwant dance. I dwont want you to bwe dis'pointed.."

Papyrus made the action figure hug the other action figure, "We cwan still dwance! I cwan teach you how!"

"You rweally wanna teach me..?"

"Of course I dwo!"

*creak*

"Sorry for being so long Paps, Alphyus wanted me to watch some shows with her. I think you would like it! You gotta ask her to watch it some time-"

Sans and Papyrus' eyes met with each other's.
However, Papyrus didn't feel nervous, or scared. He just continued to do what he was doing with his toys.
Sans blinked a few times before he realized what was going on, it made him chuckle a bit,
"What happened to 'anything BUT this' huh?"

"Shush.."
Papyrus mumbled.

"Hey hey, I'm not making fun of you."
Sans went down next to his brother, "Im glad you're giving it a try."

Papyrus smiled a bit after hearing that. He knew his brother wouldn't make fun of him! But it was reassuring to know for sure.

"So, what do you think of it so far?"

"I.. I think it's working a little bit!"

Papyrus giggled a bit,

"Infact.. I might even wanna do this again if I get stressed."
