video; during day 1 of the invasion

[boneafide]

[The video starts with VERY loud music, and a very dizzying, swinging view of the inside of one of the fighter ships. From the coloring of white and gold, one can assume it’s from the Zymandis. The next thing one might note is the sheer amount of fire present inside of the jet. That cockpit is not exactly big, and one can say maybe it’s about 75% fire at this point.

Eventually, a gloved hand picks up the necklace communicator, and holds it up to show himself in said cockpit of said burning fighter jet. The skeleton is smiling widely, while also off on the side frantically pressing buttons, pulling levers- basically, the things someone does when they have no idea what they are doing. ]

HELLO, FELLOW AL DENTE FRIENDS!!

[Papyrus means Audente, but...]

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY’RE SAYING IN THIS SONG, BUT IT SOUNDS GREAT!! Anyway!! I have obtained one of the fighter jets from the… What were their names again?

[He pauses in his button pressing for just a moment, and then shrugs. Meanwhile, the entire plane is definitely shaking wildly, of which Papyrus really doesn’t seem too bothered.]

But don’t worry, I am not alone here! Fire is my co-pilot!!

[Fire makes a bad co-pilot it seems, because there’s another loud explosion that definitely ISN’T the music. If anyone happens to be looking at the sky during this time, you will definitely be hearing (MUFFLED DAME MAS GASOLINA) playing in the distance as Papyrus’ newly acquired fighter jet is definitely about to crash and blow up.]

You know, they really should label the “land” button on these things!! I’ll figure it out, though. How’s everyone else doing!!

[Probably better than Papyrus.]

[ You are a talking skeleton so really, talking to the fire is not the weirdest thing you could do, buddy.

Jumping out of a crashing spaceship, now that's probably the weirdest thing you could do. ]

Wow, you're-- you're falling pretty fast there, Great Papyrus. You have a plan?

[ HE KINDA LIKES YOU, PLEASE DON'T DIE WHERE HE CAN SEE? ]

[boneafide]

Of course I do! It is "don't die."

[SAID, AS HE'S FALLING. No, but really, in the distance, one might see a series of VERY LARGE bones suddenly jutting up from the ground. He lands on one, not perhaps as gracefully as he could have, but a good deal better than one might expect. Said large bone, made of magical energy really and not truly a bone, then begins to lower back into the dirt of the ground, working essentially as the weirdest elevator ever.]

[endeudado]

That's a shit plan!

[ What is even happening here... like a train wreck, Jesper can't look away as Papyrus flops his way down on... weird bones. I mean, that's kind of cool? ]

I don't... are you-- what just happened?

[boneafide]

[And somehow, through it all, he touches down on the ground, perfectly fine overall, as all traces of bones disappear, and then in the distance, a plane explodes.]

Wow!! I guess you could say my timing was astronomical!!!

[YEAH HE WENT THERE.]

Anyway, now that I'm not in all of that!! Do you need help fighting anything?? Any big battles going on??

[endeudado]

[ Jesper would groan but nah he laughs HE LOVES AWFUL JOKES. ]

Saints, that's for sure!

[ I can't believe this. Jesper briefly considers his offer, but his issues aren't so much the fighting kind anyway. ]

I'm doing alright. Had my fun with those flying deathtraps for now. Any word on how these things got here?

[boneafide]

I am assuming though the sky!!

[Helpful, right? That's about all the info he has, though.]

[endeudado]

I sorta had that part figured out, but thanks.

[ I mean, Jesper's not a master spy either, he's just fishing for deets. ]

Guess we'd better keep shooting 'em down till someone explains what's going on.

[ That's a solid plan, right? ]
