Been playing through Undertale for the first time on Switch recently and since itâs also spook month I had the idea for this dumb little parody animation of one of my favourite videos (x). Credit to the original artist, @brakken! Also up on Youtube.
Sansâ jokes are the equivalent of those âjoke booksâ youâd read in 5th grade. Theyâre so clean as to be incredibly lame and there isnât one edgy or dark thing about them. The fact that theyâre lame and groan-worthy and just plain terrible is the POINT.
Papyrus on the other handâŚ. I⌠I donât know if he MEANS to make dark jokes or not⌠I think he just⌠says things??? and they unintentionally end up being hilarious but also kinda troubling???
My favorite thing from Undertale was being able to call Papyrus (and eventually Undyne too) in just about every single place all around the Underground! Though itâs often funny imagining Papyrus trying to call the human at first and how many other numbers he came across before, but then also how quickly he would have had to back out in order to find a new number.
Anyways, this is my contribution to @just-papyrus as well as a simple anniversary piece for the game as a whole :,3
1. Humans say âowâ, even if they havenât actually been hurt. Itâs just a thing they say when they think they might have been hurt, but arenât sure yet.
2. Humans collect shiny things and decorate their bodies and nests with them. The shinier the better, although each individual has a unique taste for style and colouring
3. Humans are not an aquatic or even amphibious species, but they flock to bodies of water simply to play in it. They canât even hold their breath all that long; they just love to splash!
4. When night falls and the sky goes dark, humans become drowsy and begin to cocoon themselves in soft, fluffy bedding.
5. Some humans spend time in each otherâs nests! Just for fun! Itâs not their nest; theyâre just visiting each other.
6. Some humans use pigments and dyes to make their bodies flashy and colourful! They even attach shiny dangly bits to their cartalidgous membranes!
7. Humans are very clever, and sometimes adopt creatures from other species into their family units. They donât seem to notice the obvious differences, and often raise them alongside their own young!
8. If a human sees another creature in distress, they can commonly be observed trying to help! Even at their own risk, most humans are deeply compassionate creatures!
9. If a human hears a particularity catchy sound or tune, it will often mimic it, even to the point of annoying themselves!
10. Sneezes are entirely involuntary, and completely adorable. Especially when the human in question becomes frustrated
11. Humans love treats!!! Some more than others. Many humans will save these treats specifically for a later date when they are in need of comfort or reassurance. IE, pickles, pop tarts, Popsicles, etc
12. Theyâre learning to travel in space!!! They canât get very far, but theyâre trying!!! So far, theyâve made it to the end of their yard, and have found rocks
