So my mornin' starts off as such, god awful early hours of the morning I get changed, hoods up and I port out, to the castle in new home. I report in to Asgore, now…I don't really talk to the man. I try to separate business from pleasure. That meaning, I come in, I get my assignment for the day, then port out. In and out in a few minutes. In the beginning, it was a boss and underling relationship, but as time went on and since the last human my boss had…well…ya know…He started to get friendlier and friendlier towards me. Inviting me in, offerin' me tea and so on. I normally turn him down. Like I said. I don't like to mix work with pleasure.

I port back home and lay around until Paps, 'wakes' me up. He normally makes breakfast, and we sit down and eat together. Once we finish our mornin' routine we head over to Undynes house and pick up our daily orders, mainly where to patrol and for how long that sorta deal. Once we do that we head back to Snowdin and start our patrols. I normally take mine later in the day because I have other jobs to get too.

I head over to the wish room, and stay by my telescope for a while, sometimes offering a look, weather to be nice or prank, really whatever floats ma boat that day.

After a while, I head over to my hot dog stand, I got a lot of customers, and to be honest I actually like serving them. I spend a few hours and get a bit of side money. Swing by the dump then it's sentry duty.

Now, recently I started a new route. I've never personally been on it before. It's way out there in the woods. I mean way, WAY out there. So I start walking and what do I find?

A door.

It has to have been out here for a long time, 'cause the things ancient lookin'. It's sturdy, heck I think it's even sealed, if a human came through that…. well I'd be surprised.

So yeah, to pass the time on patrol, I decided to brush up on my act for the MTT bar, I stopped going a while back when work picked up- but hey ya never know. I mostly told knock, knock jokes because classics don't get enough recognition.

Soon enough it's time to head home, what can I say Papyrus gets cranky without his bedtime story. I report in to Pap. Then he and I report in to Undyne.

Then we go home and have dinner. A little after dinner activity, sometimes we watch T.V, read or play a game together. Ya know like monopoly or something. Better watch out Paps is amazing at board games. Turn off everything.

Then it's time for bed. Normally the ever classic, Peek-a- boo with Fluffy bunny is always voted to be read. Then we knock off to dream land…

At least for him, about an hour after my bro is down, I port to the capitol and give my nightly report to Asgore. It's normally nothing, just a,' hey boss, no humans today.' Then I port back home before he can offer my anything.

Once home I head out to my lab and work a few hours on my own projects, or sometimes I pop over to Alphys and help her out. Weather her own projects or with…the Amalgates. That in and of itself is a story I do NOT want to get into. Poor Al…She tries so hard, she only wanted to help those fallen monsters…but…Yeahhhhh….

Heh, I'd love to help her find a cure for what she did, but I got my own problems, not that I'm not sympathy to her problems, just I got my own things to deal with. It starts off with a promise. Now…I hate keeping promises, mainly because I made one to myself that I already broke, I can't forget.

Now you're asking, Sans, what did you forget. Well. The thing is I don't know, I don't know what I forgot. And really it's not so much of a what as it is a who. It's someone really, really important. Like…A friend, or maybe family? I dunno, all I know is there's this picture in my desk drawer of a person I don't know and a photo album of people I've never met before and when I see them…I feel…Like I let them all down. Like I HAVE to remember. Ya know what I mean?

Seeing that picture, heh, it looks like something paps did when he was little, makes me sure I need to find someone important to me. So I have to work on this machine. I mean it's already helped me.

I became aware of the timelines because of it, knew how to figure out the resets an what's going on with it. It led me to Alphys, and helped me with a bit of my own tricks in battle. Now I ain't the type of guy who can reset or save, but that doesn't mean I can't effect a battle regardless.

I work on the machine till I'm too tired to work anymore and head off to bed.

It' a pretty busy and dull life…But hey it's mine. Someone's gotta live it.

SO today is the mark of another boring day, get up, go to work, come back lie down, go to work…. etc.…Once on sentry duty, I decide to have a little fun.

Walking out in the snow would bother most monsters, I would agree, not most monster are skeletons…Snow and cold weather doesn't bother me. No skin.

Walking in the snow is actually pretty nice. If anything it's pretty here in Snowdin, peaceful too. It's the little things that keep me around this place and walking helps to remind me of that, going up to the door I grin to myself. I tilt my head as I rest my hand on it and grin.

"Strong wooden door, sturdy….yeah you'll do." I chuckle to myself as I rest a hand on it and grin, knocking.

"Knock, knock." I pause, perfect door.

"Who's there? Two 4's. Two 4's who? No need to make lunch we already 8." I laugh, I love bad jokes, call it a guilty pleasure, but the more cringe worthy the joke the funnier it is to me.

I smiled and knock again," Knock, knock. Who's there? Cotton. Cotton who? Cotton a trap can ya help me out?" I laugh again, sure it may seem silly but after all the work I put my bones through sometimes it just nice to laugh.

I calm down and sit at the door to relax for a spell. I sigh and enjoy the peace and quiet nature has to offer. For a while I don't really more or anything, just try to let relaxation seep into my bones…Sadly it doesn't work. Holding in a sigh I stand up and knock again, it seemed to help and I'm not one to KNOCK something that works so I go another round.

"knock, knock." I pause and grinned," whose there?" Another pause," Toby, toby who? Toby or not toby that is the question- "I could go on but I can't make it and break down in laughter, oh that one was good, I laugh and shook my head," kay another one- Knock, knock- Whose there- Snow- Snow who? Snow use I forgotten my key." I howl in laughter, not to toot my own horn but, toot…. But…I did notice something odd, I thought for sure I heard something on the other side of the door. I shook it off, too caught up on a roll to stop the jokes now.

So I started really knockin' em out. Finally, after hours of laughin' and just finally feeling a bit more at peace I pat the door. Welp, time ta head home, I'll knock a few more out tomorrow, maybe it'll help with my WOODEN performance." I turn and walk towards my sentry station. I spot my brother down the road and wonder if todays a good day to prank him. My smile fades, his face looks a little down. Nope, looks like it's big brother time.

I walk towards him as he looks up at me hopeful. Geeze Pap, kill me why don'tcha. "hey bro what's wrong?" Let's guess shall we, A) no human, B) Undyne and those royal guard or C) no friends again…

"Well…Undyne said- "Oh boy here we go," I'm still not ready for the royal guard…I don't get it…what am I doing wrong? Am I not great enough?" He looks down at me frustrated and disappointed, hell if I could I'd make him king of the underground if I could…but he wants to make friends the right way.

"Bro, your amazing never doubt yerself. She just doesn't see what I do, give her time to see how GREAT ya really are." Annnnnndddddd there. His smile widens, as he nods.

"y…your right! I just need to keep at it, thank you brother. I just have to show Undyne my wonderful personality! I am the GREAT PAPYRUS! I should never doubt myself." I nod and grin as we walk to her house to give our evening report. "So then, any luck finding a human yet brother?"

I shook my head, glad he was feeling a little better, though it didn't help my guilt for not really looking. Ehhhhhh, he wouldn't mind." Sorry bro, no humans today." He moaned and I had to chuckle, for a big guy he's still a kid.

"Really not even one?"

I laugh, "Sorry Papyrus, not even ONE, but TWO be fare…" He looks at me sharply, that look, oh god, it makes all this worth it. "The way I THREE it- "

"SANS! Please…this is not the time for such jokes!" Okay challenge excepted, I can break him.

"What's wrong bro don't have the stomach, FOUR, number jokes today?"

Bottom jaw quivering, he's forcing a scowl I can do this. I stop and grin widely as he huffs and looks away, "Look lets high FIVE, since your SIXs of my jokes." I place both hands in my pockets, better laugh bro, I can go up to a hundred if I have too. I smile as I hear a soft snicker and he looks down at me, eyes narrowed, oh won't go down easily eh? Alright.

"By the way what are you SEVEN for dinner tonight? Cause I hope it's not something…" He looked at me definitely as I pause for the pounce," WE ALREADY EIGHT!" That did it, he broke down laughing as I did.

He could never make it to ten, "Okay…that was a stretch brother and you know it." He chuckled as I smile.

We walk towards the Waterfalls still laughing. I look up at him. "Yeah maybe, but it still got you to laugh."
