canon is undertale, considering ryslig next round (potential spoilers in comments)

[skelepun]

A place where humans turn into monsters, huh? Sounds like a bit of a downgrade if you ask me. For the humans, not for me, but that goes without saying dontcha think?

But hey, it's not like I'll fight you about it. You do what you gotta do to keep things spicy. That's the essence of your humanity, right? Beating back the boredom? Heh...

I gotta wonder, though. Do their souls stay human? 'Cuz if that's the case, sorry bro, you ain't no monster.

Or maybe I should be saying congratulations? Heh.

But hey, enough of that. Stop me if you've heard this one before... What kind of pasta do ghosts eat?

sorry for any tripups, voicetesting like a beast in here

[papyrusiscool95]

Sans!!

This is no time for jokes!

A world of humans and monsters, living together, getting along?? Not only that, but getting so close they BECOME each other?!?? This is unprecedented! Astounding! Marvelous!!

How can you stand around telling jokes at a time like this, lazybones??

right back at you bro

[skelepun]

'Sup bro. Exactly none of those words is pasta a ghost would eat.

Thought this was your wheelhouse.

[immobileflame]

Trick question, yes?

Ghosts don't eat pasta!

[skelepun]

Bzzt! Wrong. [Wink.] It's boo-guini.

I don't know what ghosts you've been hanging with but the ones around Waterfall are big eaters.

[your_best_friend]

[Flowey's definitely going to watch his step here. He doesn't want a reset right now.]

Golly, what's wrong with being a monster? Those humans would be able to gain magic!

[skelepun]

[... An echo flower? Doesn't seem like it. There's something familiar about this that Sans can't place, but that sensation is old news to him by now. His demeanor remains unchanged, though the light in his eyes flickers out for half a second.]

Humans have a whole lot more than magic going for them. [A beat.] Somethin' tells me you know a thing or two about that, though.

hope this is okay

[papyrusiscool95]

[omg hello tiny flower do you remember your best skeleton buddy who always makes time for your exciting suggestions and predictions? because he's comin' at ya live right now.]

Hey! You always know just when and where to pop up, don't you?

[ultrareality]

[This girl is genuinely excited at the question.]

Would it be... Angel Hair?

1/2

[skelepun]

[..............]

2/2

[skelepun]

[Sans let out an almost startled laugh. If he didn't know any better, he might have thought this girl was the woman behind the door.]

Hehehe, hey, that's pretty good!

[barkingchaos]

Souls stay human?

[Sorry about the Albino girl (who is average in every respect besides that) with the long hair, baggy clothing, and pink dog collar around her neck suddenly showing up out of nowhere.

But FIRST she needs to pay attention to that question, becaaaaaaaaaaaause-]

Ghosts eat pasta, mister? How do they do that? Wouldn't the pasta go right through them? Can they eat other things too? What about meat? Or vegetables? Or-

[....feel free to stop her at any time or else she is just going to keep going.]

[skelepun]

[If Sans was going to answer her question (and who can say if he was), he didn't get the chance.

That said, he doesn't exactly stop her for a good few minutes into her impromptu speech on the boundaries of incorporeal digestion. Eventually, Sans does clear his throat.]

It's penne in boo-rgandy sauce. [He paused.] I... think.

[All that talking managed to make him completely forget the punchline!]

I guess you don't have any ghosts around where you live?

Because I couldn't resist.....

[imitationsandy]

Hmm...let me see...oh, I know! Spook-ghetti! That must be it!

oh my GOOOOOD YES 1/2

[skelepun]

[Whoa, hey! Another skeleton! The last time Sans saw one that wasn't his brother... well, he doesn't really like to think about that.]

2/2

[skelepun]

Nah. Buttered boo-dles.

[WINK.]

[determinedpacifist]

I dunno Sans, what kind of pasta do ghosts eat?

(Frisk is holding their cheeks in their hands and just grinning. Good to see ya, Sansy.)

[skelepun]

[Hey, it's the human! Good to see you too, kid.]

What, no guess? I thought you had more--

1/2

[ghostboy]

Um.

Spaghetti-oos.

2/2

[ghostboy]

Wait, no, I've got it--is it booh-tie pasta?

[flowerbed]

...?

[Frisk is as quiet as ever, but they look at him expectantly, head tilted. What sort of pastas would ghosts eat? All that talk about humans and monsters is interesting, but the joke is more important, clearly!!]

[skelepun]

[Good to see you have your priorities straight, Frisk.]

Noodle casper-ole.

[Eh???]

[belzebul]

All my good answers have been taken. Boo-catini, maybe?

My mun's in the back complaining about how you're so hard to write. So props to yours?

[skelepun]

How about a little lasahh!gna?

[8Db]

Don't be too hard on her. In my experience, humans brains and monster brains don't overlap the way you expect they might.

late, but i had to

[lookstabnap]

ummm...

does mac and cheese count... i'm not really sure

omg never too late...!

[skelepun]

[Seeing Napstablook gave Sans a moment of pause. He didn't want to be offensive or anything; it's not like ol' Blooky went around telling skeleton jokes.

... But eh.]

Sure, but it goes right through 'em.

[RIMSHOT.]

Hope it's okay to tag with this guy.

[lostdreemurr]

Um. Car...boo...nara?

AHHHH YES IT IS

[skelepun]

Heh, not bad, not bad. [Looking the kid once over, Sans couldn't help but feel something... familiar. Huh. Maybe another anomaly? Who knew, they came in every shape and size these days. The kid liked a pun, so more points to him.]

Where you from?

laaate ;w;

[forthespiders]

Why should they eat any pasta when they could be eating some of our delicious baked goods~♡ then they could be donating to the welfare of spiders everywhere~♡

wanders in 900 years later

[wildcardette]

... Ooh. Ooh!

[PICK HER, PICK HER.]

Lin-ghoul-ini?

[Be gentle, she's pretty damn proud of that one.]

DON'T WORRY I'M LATE TOO, it's finals week for me around here ahh

[skelepun]

Heh, look at you. [You get a thumbs up from Sans, kiddo. The worse the better in his mind.] How 'bout this one. Why didn't the ghost ever pick a side during an argument?

[tokyokingmade]

Yūki-soba.

[stop that.]

[skelepun]

Gesundhaunt.

[mrboneswildride]

[Ooh, this ought to be good.]

Alright, how about T-oooooooohrtellini?

[skelepun]

[Well what do ya know.]

You're pretty good, if I do say so myself.
