I found this tiny snippet from the ED!Papyrus AU I forgot to post on here, so have at it...


Sans hates that he knows.

He wishes he didn't, it would be easier if he didn't, but he does and it sucks.

He's a good actor though, and it's so simple just to turn a blind eye to whatever is happening with his brother, to let himself be consumed by self-pity and depression and a deep, real loathing for everything he has become.

And ignore the way their fridge seems to overflow with food these days. Nothing gets eaten in their house.

Sans goes to Grillby's and Papyrus does his thing so he doesn't even have to see how bad it has gotten.

Or be reminded of cold long-gone days of lying on a dust-covered floor craving anything and nothing and waiting for Papyrus to come back and feed him, not questioning why his brother takes nothing for himself.

He hadn't asked back then except that one time and somehow Sans felt that meant he didn't have the right to ask now. He wasn't entitled to have an opinion on Papyrus' eating habits, no matter how bad they were.

He was fortunate enough to be there, and try to seem encouraging whenever Papyrus did eat, rub his back when he's puking his proverbial guts out above the toilet again.

Without saying a word through it all.
