[So maybe it's been a while since you've seen Everyone's Favorite Skeleton! Because it has. But don't worry, he is still here, just as loud and annoying sounding as before.]

I HAVE A FEW VERY IMPORTANT QUESTIONS, IF EVERYONE COULD PLEASE ANSWER!

[What a way to preface this. He appears to have a notebook he's been writing in, and keeps it in his hands for the duration of this post.]

ONE! What are your favorite parts of the maze you've experienced so far!! Was it that impenetrable walls?? The laser net?? The lizards?? The less handsome and completely anti-social skeletons? Or fill in your own answer!

TWO! What would you do to improve this maze?? Lava? Cannons? More traps leading into spiked pits?? I'm thinking that last one, myself. Or, again, fill in your own answer!

Please vote with your answers!

BAN!!!!!!!

[thank you for voting but he also doesn't care right now, he missed u]

[perma_banned]

[Sniff. Ban looked aside, trying to brush off a few stray tears.

It didn't look cute when old men cried.]

B-Buddy... I've been lost all damned week and the only company I've had are the weird-ass aliens...

[boneafide]

WELL COME AND FIND US ALREADY!! I'LL WAIT RIGHT HERE FOR YOU!!

[perma_banned]

[Of course, this enthusiasm was to be expected but Ban fell short of excitement when--]

Well, I dunno where--

Waaaait, I got an idea... Do you still have that cape I made ya'?

[boneafide]

Of course!! I've been using it as a blanket!! And a cape!!

[perma_banned]

Ehehe! Tell you what--I'll add pockets to it, later~. Good cloaks and capes always have little ones scattered in 'em.

[He took a brief pause to swallow his exquisitely cooked lizard to reconvene with the point.]

Buuut, it's tough to home in on anyone's magic so easily. Do me a favor and turn two corners dragging a few strings from your cape. I can fix it once I find you, so don't worry about rippin' it up a little. If you do thaaaat, I can make a little map in my head.

[boneafide]

You really want me to rip it...??

[Well. It WAS a cape Ban made for him, so if Ban can fix it again himself...]

Alright, if you say so! Give me a minute!

[And, ripping the cape a little to get some strings from it, he does just as Ban asks, and begins walking around, dragging the bits of cloth behind him.]

I'm doing the really weirdly specific thing you're asking, now.

[perma_banned]

C'mooon, it isn't that weeeird.

See, I can picture your magic in my head once you help me sense it out.

[Sitting up, Ban set down the little shish-kebab he had been eating before standing up to follow what felt like Papyrus' magic at the end of his own magic.

He chatted while he felt out Papyrus' magic.]

It's actually a trick that trappers would use. Were you ever much of a hiker, Papyrus?

[boneafide]

Hiker? Like climbing mountains? Not really. They had some mountains in the forest near Snowdin, but I didn't go up them too much!

[Still marching along, trailing along the cloak.]

I can do something kind of like this. You know, I don't think I ever told you what color your magic was, Ban! It's how I can tell when something's yours, too.

[perma_banned]

[Ban couldn't have said he ever figured out just how big Snowdin's caves were, so he let that concept fall flat on his head. Though, he knew Papyrus could hike after their 'adventure' on Zeta-12. He grinned lazily, remembering something pleasant.

At least, until Papyrus brought up something weird. Ban still sauntered forward but he did so with a little less ease to it. Somehow, he became just a little worried.]

...Well, I know I kinda make a pink sorta aura when I use Fox Hunt. Is that what you're talkin' about?

[Was Ban's very essence adorably pink?]

[boneafide]

Kind of! Monsters can just tell each other's magic, it's kind of like a scent? It might be pink when you use Fox Hunt, but it actually looks a little more purple to me overall! I think it has to do with personality.

[perma_banned]

...Purple? [Not sure of what to think of that, Ban trudged on. He did look a little concerned.]

Wait. Want me to try guessin' yours?

[boneafide]

Oh, yes, do that!

[perma_banned]

[Mouth open, Ban stared with a bit of a slacking to it.

He answered much later than he thought he would.]

...Blue? [Well, it wasn't so much of a guess as him remembering that Papyrus once bragged that he could turn people blue--]

Actually, that wasn't really a guess. I think you already told me that~.

[boneafide]

Yes, you're right! Even if you just remembered instead of guessing, it's blue! Sans is blue too, actually. I don't usually see a lot of purples.

[perma_banned]

Wait, so... Is purple bad or good, then? I'd stand out a lot if I'm way too unique.

[He said this as a seven foot tall albino without a hint of irony in his tone at all.]

[boneafide]

It's not bad or good! It's just... purple! I think there's meanings to the colors, but...

I forget! Nyeh heh heh heh... Don't worry! I don't think anyone except monsters can see it!

[perma_banned]

--Well, that's kind of important to know.

[From what he could tell, monsters like Sans, Undyne, and Papyrus weren't really monsters. They were irregular compared to humans but then so were fairies, giants, angels, and demons. He didn't think he'd mind monsters being able to read his magic like that.]

Like, how fairies can read your mind by seein' into your heart.

[boneafide]

I've never heard of that before. I don't think monsters can read minds!

[They can't, no.

But some are still very good at reading a person.]

Or at least I can't. But I think I can tell when someone's a good person deep down, you know! Like with you.

[perma_banned]

Naaaah. Somethin' tells me you're a special case, buddy~.

[Deflecting was getting tougher and tougher with Papyrus but Ban could still find ways once in awhile--]

For me, it took a whole lotta practice to figure out how to read people. Hell, I could probably teach you, if you wanted.

[boneafide]

[And once in a while, yes, it still works on him.]

Read people- like know what they're thinking without reading their mind??

[perma_banned]

Yup. [It was a skill Ban was actually proud of.]

Learnin' how to read people by their expressions, posture, and tone--it kept me alive most of my life before the Fountain of Youth~.

[boneafide]

Yes, teach me that!! You're always such a good teacher!

[perma_banned]

You say that but I'm pretty sure the only good things I taught you were some recipes~.
