Blue pulls on his jacket and packs a few bags. He was trying to rush so to leave before his brother could stop him. he packed his tacos. He knew his brother hated his cooking. It didn't bother Blue, he just wished his lazy brother would tell him the truth for once. Didn't Papyrus notice the falseness in his smile? It hadn't reached his big, aqua-blue eye lights like it used to. Didn't help that Papyrus would drink all night.
He was just so hard for Blue to handle.
The small skeleton knew that his brother sometimes came home late at night, reeking of an oder Blue couldn't place and an awful lot of gold. He hated how Papyrus always lied and treated him like a kid. But it wasn't just his brother, it was Alphys as well. The lizard monster was lying too. Blue knew he wasn't strong and others would kill him thanks to his all too sweet nature. He finished packing and hurried out of the house. He trudged through the snow and into the forest.
The fell bros hide in the comforting privacy of the empty forest to just calm down. Red looked around at the crunch of snow. Odd. Red grabs this brother's attention. they both look to a startled Blue, clutching his bag tight.
"who the fuck are you?" Red snaps. Blue flinches.
"I'M SANS BUT EVERYONE CALLS ME BLUE..." Blue muttered softly.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, RUNT?" Edge asks, standing up and walks towards the small, scared skeleton. Blue backs up.
"I W-WAS GOING C-CAMPING..." Blue murmurs, clutching his bag tightly. Edge stops in front of Blue, looking him over. The tall skeleton snorts softly.
"FINE." Edge states, walking back to Red. Blue practically crumbled, relieved. He had to admit, the tall skeleton scares him but he pushes the thought away. It was rude to judge others by appearance. Blue went about setting up his sleeping bag, fire, and other things. He took out one of the containers of tacos, opened it and ate. The fell brothers talk softly among themselves.
"he doesn't seem like he's from our world, bro," Red whispered.
"I've noticed. there are no signs of fighting. his bones were untouched. In a lot of ways. No marks, scratches, nicks, anything." Edge says, looking back at the blue clad skeleton.
"what about... ya know..." Red asks.
"No sign of torture or rape. he must be from a softer universe. But I still don't quite tr-"
"A-ARE YOU H-HUNGRY...?" Blue asks, standing a bit away, container held tightly in his little hands. "I-I'M AWARE THAT MY COOKING'S H-HORRIBLE BUT..." Blue held out the container with two still steaming tacos in it. Edge grabs it, not risking Red in case it was a trap. Blue let go and hurries back to his sleeping bag and lighting the fire. Blue slips into his sleeping back and sleeps soundly but not deeply. Edge takes one and bites into it. His face scrunched up. His cooking was bad? Edge scoffs and keeps eating, handing the last one to Red. Red took it and ate.
"kid's good at cooking." Red comments. Edge nods.
"ALTHOUGH HE COULD IMPROVE." The taller adds.
Blue wakes up, finding the fire still lit, empty container near his bag, and the Fell brothers gone. Blue stands up and stretches his arms. He gathered the supplies he used to wash up and heading a little natural hot spring. Blue stops at the edge, setting the supplies down, looking around before removing his scarf, then the rest of his battle body. He eases into the hot water, sighing as it surrounds his cold bones. He wasn't too worried about others seeing him. That was until the crunch of snow alerts him of someone's presence. Blue lowers himself further into the water. Out of the brush steps Edge and Red, wearing almost nothing and carrying their towels. Blue keeps his gaze on the water, uncertain and nervous. Blue grabs his own towel, getting out of the water and covering himself. Blue grabs the remainder of his things and heads back until someone calls to him.
"blue, right?" Red asks. Blue turns around, nervous and shy.
"Y-YES. TH-THAT'S CORRECT." Blue stutters.
"you don't have to leave, kid." Red tells him.
"I TH-THINK IT'S BETTER IF I DO..." Blue counters, shaking his head.
"whatever kid. whatever adds buoyancy to your aquatic vessel." Red shrugs. Blue stifles his giggle. Even though he wasn't a fan of jokes, he did like a few. Red actually grins, beaming with pride.
"ARE YOU PROUD? YOU INFECTED HIM WITH YOUR PUNS AND JOKES." Edge sighs.
"MWEH HEH HEH, JUST REMINDED ME OF SOMETHING MY BROTHER USED TO SAY WHEN WE WERE YOUNG." Blue says. Red and Edge exchange a look. "NOW HE'S OUT DRINKING AND SMOKING ALL THE TIME. SOMETIMES HE SMELLS AWFUL WHEN HE COMES HOME..."
"sorry to hear that, kid." Red mutters, getting into the water.
Blue just smiles and shakes his head, "IT'S JUST MY BROTHER BEING MY BROTHER..." Blue hides in the brush and dries off. He didn't get to wash off his bones but he'd have to deal with it. His mind wanders as he mechanically puts his battle body one and ties his scarf into it's trademark bow.
It was the end of the week and Blue goes about packing the empty containers and sleeping bag. He stands up and heads back home. Blue opens the door quietly to see his brother sleeping on the couch. Blue sighs and walks up the stairs and into his room, setting his bag and sleeping bag on his favorite bed. he thought about the mysterious monsters that looked so much like him and his brother. Blue wouldn't lie. They made him more than a little curious. He wonders why they acted the way they did. But he does know one thing, he's going to befriend Red and Edge!
