Well, I gotta say, despite all of the little disasters peppering around here, it ain't all bad.

If I got my timing right, 'bout this time of year, I'd have just missed the Harrowing. Don't reckon any of you really know what it is, but it's a little year time tradition where I'm from -- and I'm all too happy to miss out on it.

[He chuckles to himself:] Shame about Snow Day, though, I suppose.

In any case. Thinkin' about it, I was a little curious if any of you were missin' out on some... festivities back home? Or did you dodge a bullet?

Since we have such a colorful bunch here, didn't figure it hurt to ask.

SNOW DAY?????

[Someone who's as jacked up as he is from Koltira probably shouldn't be screaming, and yet, here we are.]

[fateality]

Good to hear from ya, Papyrus.

You wanna know about Snow Day?

[boneafide]

Y-Yes! Of course, why wouldn't you hear from me??

[IT'S NOT LIKE HE ALMOST DIED!!]

I do! I love the snow!!

[fateality]

You tell me.

[He has SUSPICIONS.]

Well, I should'a figured. Snow Day's got plenty of it, in most regions. But it's really about celebrating with your loved ones. Gifts and consideration an' such.

[boneafide]

I'd rather not!!

[Said, as if he's not talking about something totally serious??]

Oh!! Yes, I know this kind of holiday!! My hometown is famous for it!! There's a big tree in the center of town, at all times, where everyone puts their presents!

[fateality]

All right, but you're gonna later.

[TYPICAL]

Sounds pretty close to it. You guys have a name for it?

[boneafide]

Maybe!!!

[Said sounding like they're playing a stupid game instead, WHOOPS.]

Snowdin!

[Which is... the name of the town. Not the holiday.]

[fateality]

...Snowed in?

[boneafide]

Yes. I was most recently petitioning them to change the name to "The Town Papyrus Lives In."

[fateality]

Well, that would be a pretty good town name, but maybe a bit of a mouthful.

Pretty straightforward, though. What did you all call your holiday?

[boneafide]

If you don't have your mouth full of Papyrus, then don't bother having it full at all!!

[ WHAT. ]

Oh, yes! It was called Gryftmas.

[fateality]

[hell if it were anyone else he'd take that wrong. as it stands, he just laughs.]

I think some people might oppose to that.

Gryftmas, huh? Not bad. Better than Snow Day, heh.

[boneafide]

There will always be critics...

It's named after Gryftrot! They live outside of town, and love presents!!

[ They don't. ]

[fateality]

That's 'bout the cutest darned thing I heard tonight. You miss Snowdin at all?

[boneafide]

Oh yes, Gryftrot is very cute! (Almost as cute as me.)

I do. But I also don't. I miss the people! Not the place.

[fateality]

Few things are as cute as you, let's be honest.

Hm. Not the place, huh. How come?

[boneafide]

Nyeh heh heh...

[YOU CHARMER...]

Oh! Mostly because we were stuck there. I guess I still miss my room a little bit! But I'm glad I'm not stuck there anymore.

[fateality]

[He tries]

Stuck? So, it was home, but not of your free will.

[boneafide]

Uhm. Basically, yes!

[fateality]

Can't say that I really blame you for havin' mixed feelings about it, then.

Can I ask why you were stuck there?

[boneafide]

...

I think...

[ Everyone he's told this to just gets mad about it. On top of, now, his memories from another time due to the time shift- another Papyrus stuck in the Underground, a human child that didn't save anyone- ]

It might be better if I didn't talk about it.

[fateality]

Hmm.

[It's not his place to really demand anything. And despite himself, he does care about Papyrus.]

Well. Just know if you ever do wanna talk about it, I'll listen. Pretty good at that sometimes.

[boneafide]

[ It's nice that he's offering, and... really, he's glad Fate wants to listen!

But there's maybe some things humans are better off not knowing they've done. Even if Fate's not totally human, he's enough. ]

It's really not anything to worry about! We all have things we don't like talking about, right? That's why there's the word "privacy!" Of which you can't spell without several letters in my name!

[fateality]

Oh, I surely do know a thing or two about things I don't like discussin'.

[Albeit, depending on who asks, he'll answer anyway -- but he does understand keeping information to oneself.]

Let's not concern ourselves with it for right now then, hm?

[boneafide]

Agreed!!
