"Come on, Red! It's just up ahead!" Blue called after Red, bouncing excitedly.
"Yea, yea, I'm coming." Red responded. "Ain't my fault you're fast as a goddamn rollercoaster train."
Blue giggled. "Well, it isn't my fault that you're slow as a snail!" He teased. He'd done this before and always gotten the same result, but it was fun and it always looked like Red had fun.
"Is that so? Then I guess I won't beat you to Grillbys then, huh?"
"Yea! That is so!" Before anything else was done, Blue turned around and sprinted in the direction of Grillbys. He smiled widely as he did so. Once he got to Grillbys he saw that Red was already standing outside. "How do you do that?" He asked, never having gotten an answer from him before.
"It's a secret, I told you." Red shrugged. "I can't tell."
"Why not?" Blue whined. "I wanna know!" He hugged Red. "I'm not letting go until you tell me!"
Red chuckled. "Are you sure? I mean, you might go hungry standing here like this. With no food. Not to mention the lack of sleep."
"I can handle those things longer than anyone!" Blue mage an adorable stubborn face.
"Are you really sure you wanna test that? I've survived both of those things longer than you can imagine."
Blue gave up, letting go of him. He sighed. "Fiiine. You win again."
"Don't sound so glum, we're about to get some food. Besides, Grillbys is the best place I know of to get some grub. Come on." Red motioned for Blue to follow, and he did. Once the doors were open and the two were inside, Blue gasped.
"Wow, it's pretty in here!" He exclaimed.
"Pretty's.. not the word I'd use to describe this place." Red commented, walking up to the counter and sitting on one of the bar stools.
Blue followed. "Well it is to me. I think it's beautiful! Don't you love the red color the walls are painted? And the vintage look of the place?"
Red had never noticed those aspects of it. All her every noticed was the old and best up look of the place. "I guess you're right." He helped the smaller skeleton onto one of the bar stools.
"Of course I'm right!" He exclaimed happily.
Grillby walked up to the two. "So, Sans, you got a new buddy?" He noticed that both small skeles turned their attention to him at the same time as he said the name Sans.
"Oh, Grillbz, mind calling me Red around this guy? His name is also Sans, we call him Blue." Red explained.
"Oh. Odd, but I'll take it. So, what can I do for you two?" Grillby still sounded confused, but brushed it off.
Blue glanced at Red. "A burger." Red replied calmly.
"I'll have what he's having." Blue decided.
"Alright, be back in a sec." Grillby turned and walked into the back room to fetch their orders. Blue continued to look around. Being friends with Red, you'd think he would have been in there before. But no, his Papy didn't usually let him go into that universe for safety precautions.
Red glanced at blue, who was sparkly eyed, and chuckled. "Having fun there?"
Blue turned his attention to Red. "Oh, yes! It's so cool in here! Why haven't you every brought me here before?"
"Your brother would kill me." Was his simple reply. "He's gonna be mad to just know I brought you in here."
"Yea, I guess so." Blue shrugged, putting his arms on the table to copy Red. He, however, is shorter so he had to raise his shoulders slightly in order to do so.
"So, let's just not tell him, Kay?" Red turned his head to the right to look at him.
Grillby returned with their burgers. "Here ya go." He placed the two plates in front of them.
"Thanks Grillbz." Grillby nodded in response, leaning against the back wall.
"So, how's your date so far?" Grillby asked, snickering.
Red's face flushed. "It's not a date!" He exclaimed defensively. His face looked as red as hotland. Or.. anything else in that universe, for that matter. "I just decided to bring him here today, that's all." Blue hadn't seemed to be phased by Grillbys statement in the least.
Before Blue could say anything, however, someone unfamiliar spoke. "God, it's so easy to bother you and get you flustered. You're so weak." Red looks over to see a well built dog monster. He looked vaguely familiar, which disturbed him, but he ignored it.
The statement seemed to bother Blue though. When Red just turned his back, Blue decided to speak up. "He isn't weak, you know."
The monster laughed. "Wow, you really ARE an idiot, aren't you?" He sighed. "You have no idea how weak he is." The monster was only half visible because he had on a black cloak.
"Maybe you're the weak one." Blue stated. Red stared warningly at Blue, but he paid no attention to it.
"Excuse me?!" The dog monster stood up and walked over to blue, facing him. "Do you wanna tell me that again?" Even when blue was on the bar stool, the dog monster was taller than him. Most monsters, or maybe even Humans for that matter, would be afraid, bit in that moment, Blow was not. He stood his ground.
"The same thing that makes him strong is what makes you weak." The dog monster was furious by now. "See how mad you are right now?" He asked. "When you called Red weak, he didn't even react. But when I called you weak, you took offense. Your physical strength may surpass his, but his emotional strength is definitely stronger."
The monster looked like he was about to explode, but then calmed with a grin on his face. "Let's see his 'emotional strength' save you from this." He suddenly grabbed Blue by the collar of his shirt. "You're coming with me, ya little twirp."
Red jumped off his seat. "Hey! Let go of-!" He was cut off by being slammed against the wall by pastel purple magic. "Let go of him!"
"Hah! Not a chance." The monster marched out the door. No one said anything. No one did anything. They were all afraid to do anything in fear of getting on his bad side.
But then again..
No one wanted to either.
