[The video turns on, and it's… a skeleton in front of a mirror. Yes, he wanted to make sure everyone could see him for this. To those who haven't seen Papyrus before, well, he's dressed … rather particular, for a skeleton. Also, if one's paying attention to his clothes, they will also notice he has a golden belt buckle as well. That is uh... in the shape of his face. Yeah.]

Friends!! Members of ALASTAIR!! Esteemed colleagues!!

And Sans.

I realized I had made a grave mistake of not introducing myself to the population at large here! As we are all teammates, I think this would be a great time for all of us to introduce ourselves to each other! So go ahead and say hi to each other here! I will start us off:

HELLO, EVERYONE! My name is THE GREAT PAPYRUS! I am a skeleton, and also a very cool dude. I will answer any questions you have about me being cool and popular, as it is a thing I am very well-versed in being! Nyeh heh heh!!!!

That said! I hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday!! It has also come to my attention that not everyone has had the luck I've had in getting a gift from Santa!

[To which he then pulls out his new deep red cape from behind him, a flash of a particular symbol on it.]

But worry not, friends and future-friends!

I will present you all with a gift! It's a meal I've made for many here already, but I made enough for everyone, I think, and so feel free to ask for as much as you want! I can always make more if this isn't enough.

[ooc: feel free to threadjack other people/each other/whatever in this post!!]

[Ban's head seemed to be drooping, again.]

Hm.

[It hadn't really crossed Ban's mind that Papyrus' genuinely good attitude was something that wouldn't earn him respect. Intimidation, strength and wealth tended to make people like someone. Being kind to someone without hesitation rarely lent anyone real friends--rather, just temporary ones that would come and go, knowing you would do well by them even if their feelings weren't genuine.

Then, there were people that Ban imagined would just laugh at Papyrus.

Without so much as revealing a hint of his bloodlust, Ban decided in a moment that he would kill for Papyrus, without a shred of a doubt. He lifted a tankard from the table to take a sip, as if celebrating what he felt was a confirmation of friendship.]

I might take you up on it~. Though, your company's waaaay better than ink on paper, y'know ♪.

[Yes, he would definitely maim, torture and kill people for Papyrus and they had barely gotten to know one another. All it took was Papyrus' acceptance of him--one thing he craved, but never gained elsewhere.]

Ban...

[boneafide]

[ Even though Ban hadn't said any of that out loud- or even conveyed what he was thinking... Just simply being told Ban prefered his company was enough to have Papyrus beaming. Not that he isn't always smiling, but, look, there's a difference.

They're both lonely people, it seems. One wouldn't think, perhaps, that Papyrus would be as desperate for friendship as he was but he actually had a rather small amount of people he could call friends, back in the Underground. He was certainly considered more of an oddball than not, at the very least. ]

I'M GOING TO VISIT YOU RIGHT NOW!!!

[ You know, since he likes Papyrus' company so much. ]

[perma_banned]

[A snicker snuck past Ban as he looked to his emptied drinks with a withering sneer. There was clearly a gap in Papyrus' memories as he forgot that drunk Ban had a bad tendency to hold into people for hours in a sleepy-state, but it wasn't as if Ban was going to warn him. Luring Papyrus in with good bait was just his prerogative...

Ban sneered, slapping the table surface with an open hand.]

Well, ya know where to find me ♪!

(Action or handwave!?)

[boneafide]

[No, actually. He fully recalls what happened, and what will likely happen again. But this time, he intends on letting Sans know where he will be, and for how long, so if the other needs him, it won't be an issue.]

I do!! See you soon!!!!!

[ooc: I'M OKAY WITH EITHER he will be staying for Ban's nap this time.]

-> HANDWAVE IT IS

[perma_banned]

[Ban fell face first back down onto the table, sloppily picking himself up once he remembered what he was supposed to be doing.

With some effort, he grabbed the edges of the table and pulled himself up to stand--somewhat dizzy.

Even if he were blasted out of his mind, it stood to reason that he was going to make certain Papyrus didn't waste his time out. They would try numerous drinks and recipes would be scribbled haphazardly on rolls of stolen parchment--all to be utilized without any semblance of tangible instruction...]
