The video began and Papyrus watched curiously. "Nyeh? Oh my, that is the history of the war between humans and monsters… is this going to be some kind of documentary or something? That is more my brother's thing" he said with a shrug.
The story progressed and Papyrus watched as the game began "oh? Nyeh! Is this human Frisk? Ah! This must be a documentation of human Frisk's journey through the underground! Wowie! I get to watch human Frisk's journey!".
Papyrus smiled and watched eagerly. His smile quickly became a frown as Flowey attacked Frisk "Flowery why would you attack the human? That is not nice".
Before anything could happen Toriel came onto the screen, getting rid of Flowey "ah! Lady Toriel has come to human Frisk's aid! Nyeh heh!".
Papyrus watched the story progress. Soon Toriel left and Frisk was alone. Papyrus' happy moment didn't last long as Frisk came upon their first opponent, a little Frogget. He watched as the Frisk on the screen turned Frogget to dust. Papyrus stared in horror as the monsters ashes blew away.
His bones began to rattle "w-w-what?... But… human Frisk… they would never…". He watched the character continue on, running into more monsters and dusting them as well. Papyrus rattled louder and soon no more monsters came. The music turned into a dark dreadful sound and Papyrus was close to tears.
"It's not real it's not real" he murmured to himself.
Soon they regrouped with Toriel after grabbing a toy knife. The kind woman put them to bed and left them a slice of butterscotch cinnamon pie. The character, that Papyrus had noticed was named Chara instead of Frisk, persistently badgered Toriel to go home. This led them to be down by the door that led to the ruins.
The two began to fight and before Papyrus eye lights, Toriel was struck down by the character. He let out a distressed NYEH as he watched her crumble to dust, tears leaking from his sockets.
He had to pause what he was watching so he could compose himself. He kept muttering how it never happened, that Toriel was alive and at home.
"Why would you humans wish me to watch something so dreadful?" he asked those who were watching him, another distressed nyeh leaving him "normally I would not disrespect someone's creative nature but this whole thing... For once the great Papyrus is speechless".
In seconds his chat was flooded with messages. People claiming he needed to know the truth, he had to see how things could have been had Frisk gone down a dark and dangerous path. Many mentioned Sans and a "bad time" but Papyrus had no idea what they were going on about.
"I do not think i should continue to watch this" Papyrus mumbled as he stared uneasily at the screen, tears still leaking from his eyes. The people in the chat were sending bold and capitalized messages, exclaiming for him to keep going.
"Well... it's not real... so it shouldn't harm me to see it through... though I do not like where this is leading" Papyrus said unhappily "but i am the GREAT PAPYRUS!! A silly video shall not best me! Let us commence!".
He clicked play and watched the human leave the ruins.
