"SO, AS I WAS SAYING ABOUT UNDYNE…"

That voice could only belong to Papyrus. And as he was talking to Sans, he stopped, and looked at you. 'Oh boy, what's gonna happen now…?' Frisk thought to herself.

Papyrus and Sans kept on turning to each other and then back at her. To the point where the speed of their movements kinda concerned her.

'Are they ok….? How is that even possible….?' she thought in surprise and a little bit of fear(?)

Finally they stopped and turned away from her for a moment, and none too discretely, Papyrus "whispered" to Sans, panicking.

"OH MY GOD, SANS! IS THAT…. A HUMAN?!?!?!"

"uhhhh…." Sans looked behind her. "actually, i think that's a rock."

"OH…."

"hey, what's that in front of the rock?"

"OH MY GOD! (IS THAT A HUMAN?)

"(yes)"

"OH MY GOD!!!!"

At this point, Frisk was trying oh so hard to hold in her laughter. 'What is with these brothers? They're hilarious!'

"SANS! I FINALLY DID IT!!! UNDYNE WILL…."

"I'M GONNA…."

"I'LL BE SO…."

"POPULAR!!! POPULAR!!! POPULAR!!!"

"....AHEM..."

"HUMAN! YOU SHALL NOT PASS THIS AREA!"

"I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, WILL STOP YOU!!!"

"I WILL CAPTURE YOU!"

"YOU WILL BE DELIVERED TO THE CAPITAL!"

"THEN…. THEN!!!!"

"I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S NEXT."

Frisk raised a brow to this. 'He hasn't thought that through yet?' She was interrupted from her thoughts as Papyrus yelled out,

"IN ANY CASE!"

"CONTINUE….. ONLY IF YOU DARE!!!!"

"NYEH, HEH, HEH, HEH, HEH, HEH, HEH, HEH!!!!"

As he said that last "warning" and ran off laughing with glee, Sans began to talk.

"well, that went well." He said in a tone between amusement and sarcasm. Frisk finally broke down and laughed. "Ha, ha, ha, ha, hah!!! Is your brother always this entertaining?"

Sans smiled wider, "yeah, he can be quite the character…."

Frisk smiled gently. "Well don't sell yourself short! You're quite the entertainer as well. Ever considered being a professional comedian?" 

Sans gave her a shrug. "i've thought about it before, but my brother doesn't have much of a FUNNY BONE so i don't take it quite too seriously."

Frisk snickered. "Well TIBIA honest, I think you'd be fantastic at it. At least, to me that is…" She said the last part quietly, but Sans was still able to hear it. In that moment, Sans's soul warmed and he couldn't stop from what he said next.

"well… if it means to see you make that smile, i'd give the whole underground a headache with my puns just to hear your laugh…."

Frisk froze, "R-really?"

SANS (POV)

I stood stock still. I didn't mean for her to hear that. I quickly tried to change the subject back to the current situation.

"a-anyways… ahem… don't sweat it kid."

I gave her a teasing wink as I told her I'd keep an eyesocket out for her. As I turned to leave, she called out to me.

"Wait! Did you really mean it?"

I gave her my signature lazy grin, "course i did. i don't want ya to get in trouble so i'll…" 

I didn't get to finish my sentence when she interrupted.

"No! I mean…."

She looked kind of shy and started to blush as red as a tomato. "I mean, about what you said before, that you would take up being a professional comedian in order to see me smile and hear my laugh…."

Oh boy, at this point, my soul was starting to beat a mile a second and grew as hot as Hotland. I'm pretty sure that I was blushing blue at this point. I quickly turned around before she got a good look at me.

"i – i got to go and see what my brother is up to. good luck kid." I ran up ahead and saw that my brother was fiddling with one of his puzzles that he constantly works on in order to trap a human.

"AH SANS! THERE YOU ARE! WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?! WE HAVE TO PREPARE FOR THE HUMAN!!!"

"ah, sorry bro. i was a bit busy."

He was about to say something else when he looked down at me and tilted his head to the side in confusion.

"SANS? WHY'RE YOU ALL BLUE IN THE FACE? ARE YOU SICK?! DO YOU NEED TO GO HOME AND REST?!" 

I at first wasn't sure what he meant till I realized that I still had that stupid blush on my face!

"ah, no bro. i'm fine. just a little tuckered out from the excitement of the arrival of the human. i'll be fine." I tried to reassure him.

Papyrus just looked more concerned.

"OH, OKAY. BUT IF THIS CONTINUES, THEN PLEASE TELL ME THAT YOU'LL GO HOME AND REST! I'LL COME SHORTLY AFTER AND GIVE YOU SOME OF MY AMAZING SPAGHETTI!!!!"

I quietly shuddered in silent horror at the thought of that. I love my brother. I really do. But after Undyne started to "teach" him how to cook, well, let's just say, he needs to work on it a little more…… and needs to find a new cooking teacher.

"BROTHER?"

"yeah, yeah, i'll keep an eyesocket out for it. you on the other hand have to still recalibrate your puzzle. the human is bound to be here any minute." I gently reminded my brother.

"OH YES, I'M ALMOST DONE!!! IT'S BRILLIANT SANS! THE HUMAN WILL NEVER FIGURE IT OUT!!! I'M SURE TO CAPTURE THEM!!!" He exclaimed like an excited kid.

I gave him a lazy smile in return of his big and bright one.

"i'm sure you will bro." 

I couldn't help the feeling in the pit of my non-existing stomach. 'Something is different about this girl. I can't help but feel as if…… something big is gonna happen. But what?' 

FRISK'S (POV)

I was surprised when I saw Sans run off leaving me to my thoughts. 'Was he blushing?' The thought of him blushing because of me made me start to blush again but with a little more force.

As I went through the forest, I ran into several monsters. Some were nice and friendly, some…. Not so much. But luckily I didn't hurt anyone and got some gold in return. 'Hopefully this type of currency will help me out later on. I mean, it did when Goat Mom gave me some and I could buy that stuff at the little spider 🕷️ bake sale.'

I continued to walk through the forest. I then came across a makeshift sentry station. As she read the sign on it, she could've sworn that she heard Papyrus's voice narrating for Chara. She giggled as she could faintly hear Chara groan in annoyance.

Everything was going good, till I met up with Doggo. I had a bit of trouble with battling him. But in the end, I won by petting him into submission. As I walked further on, I met up with Sans again and Sans had helped me with some helpful advice on how to beat his brother. 

"Thanks for telling me. But shouldn't you have told me about Blue magic BEFORE I met Doggo?" I grumbled the last part out as I rubbed a sore spot to where Doggo had hit me on my arm. 

Sans looked at me with concern. He reached in his pocket, and pulled out some monster candy. 

"here. this will help you heal. monster candy and food are different from human products. they have a bit of magic laced in it. so it'll help you regain some strength, if only a little…."

I didn't know what to say except, "Thank you Sans, I really appreciate it." I took the candy 🍬 and popped it in my mouth. I instantly felt relief when I saw that my sore spot had been healed!

3rd (POV)

She was amazed by this. The human world has totally forgotten how to use magic and was only heard of in legends and story books. But seeing it happen in person was amazing. Especially when it didn't involve her getting into a fight with a monster. She went to face Sans and thank him once more, but he was gone. Presumably gone to where his brother was. 

As she was exploring the area, she came across a talking snowman, who wanted her to take a piece of him with her to "see" the world, she agreed and placed that part of him in her bag that she remembered to bring with her from Toriel's place. 'I miss her….'

For the next half hour, Frisk goes through various puzzles set by Papyrus. And a ridiculous crossword set by Sans. She laughed at his laziness, but did so AFTER Papyrus left. She saw Sans shrug with his lazy smile and she swore that he had a slight blue blush on his cheeks.

But with puzzles, came more fights with different types of dog monsters that she would have to admit. They were ADORABLE!!!! She was always an animal person. And she was especially good with dogs. But Chara had to begrudgingly tell her to focus and keep moving. She mumbled under her breath that Frisk might have a petting problem. To which Frisk laughed at. 

Then after more exploring, Frisk saw a ridiculously long bridge that connected to the other side of the canyon. As she was almost to the other side, she stopped dead in her tracks due to the fact that Papyrus had this ridiculous looking puzzle that he claimed that she had a slight chance at escaping unscathed. This kinda made both her and Sans a little worried. But for some reason, Papyrus didn't activate the puzzle. He claimed that it wasn't fair and unclassy. And that it wasn't his style. Both her and Sans were confused.

When Papyrus left, Sans made sure to remind Frisk about blue attacks and to be careful. She sighed heavily and soon enough she reached the small but cozy town of Snowdin. She saw a Save Point Star between a Shop and an Inn. She touched the star and hit Save. She entered the Inn where she saw a bunny monster. 

"Hey hun, stayin' for the night? Gonna cost ya 80G per night." Frisk smiled tiredly and placed the money on the counter for the bunny lady. At this point she didn't care that the bunny monster didn't freak out over the fact that she was a human. Or that she offered a room for her. All she cared about was getting some rest. And as soon as her head hit the pillows, she immediately went to sleep. Her last thoughts were, "I wonder what those brothers will offer me tomorrow…. Can't wait…" 

As she drifted off to sleep, she couldn't help but wonder what that mysterious door was when she was exploring the forest. It had glowing mushrooms around it and the place around it gave it an mystical ethereal vibe to it. 'I wonder what that door leads to….' She thought before everything went black.
