"Hello there! I see you were trying to reach me! What a wonderful idea! Sadly, the great Papyrus is unavailable to take your call at the moment, but that's okay! I'll probably call you back in about a minute, so go ahead and state your name and business!"

((OOC note: Papyrus nearly always answers on the first ring, so you can also go ahead and play it like that happened if you like.))

[Papyrus' reply makes Asriel's stomach twist, feeling a pang of guilt. It comes as some relief that Papyrus can't see him right now.]

I didn't arrange any rescues. I'm sorry, Papyrus.

[Granted, Asriel had been in the Medbay for most of his return. Asriel smiles weakly at Papyrus' story. They made him fight with Mettaton?]

That sounds like a really cool story, Papyrus.

And yeah, I made it back okay. Kyoko helped me escape.

[He and Mettaton were supposed to kill each other, not the arena they fought in, but hey, details?]

THAT'S WONDERFUL! KYOKO'S VERY COOL AND STRONG, I'M SO GLAD SHE WAS THERE FOR YOU. I THINK SHE'S A LOT LIKE UNDYNE, IF YOU REMEMBER HER!

[Asriel was once Flowey, so he's assuming.]

[That gets an actual smile out of Asriel. Undyne is someone he certainly remembers, and not just because he fought her a few times as Flowey. But the resemblance between her and Kyoko was definitely there.]

Yeah, I thought that too. Kyoko really is a lot like auntie Undyne, isn't she? She even fights like her too.

[coolskeletonnyehntyfive]

SPEARS AND EVERYTHING! IT'S DOWNRIGHT UNCANNY. WE SHOULD CHECK AND MAKE SURE KYOKO ISN'T HIDING GILLS!

[pleasereset]

If Kyoko's been auntie Undyne this whole time, I gotta say I'll be really impressed at her disguise.

[coolskeletonnyehntyfive]

[AUNTIE UNDYNE. Because you weren't cute enough already, apparently!]

OH, DON'T WORRY, I WAS ONLY TEASING YOU! IF KYOKO WERE REALLY UNDYNE, SHE'D BE A LOT SCALIER! AND... TOOTHIER.

AND SHE'D SUPLEX EVERYONE MORE!

[He has a lot of fond memories of auntie Undyne. Asriel gives a small laugh at Papyrus' response. It's probably the first time he's laughed at anything since he's been back.]

Maybe... or maybe Undyne is wearing a user disguise and not telling anyone!

[Well, human disguise. But when you've been reprogrammed to say "user" instead of "human", the word slips out a little too naturally.]
