video; we had a riel good time
[There's a skeleton on the network. He seems pretty unperturbed about his state of being, actually, and in fact looks rather cheerful, all things considered. He's got the camera lodged or propped up somewhere, because he's not carrying it. That would evidently require too much work. No, Sans has his bony hands shoved in his jacket pockets, addressing a point of space slightly to the left of his device.]
So that was pretty fun, huh? Not actually the weirdest thing that's ever happened me, believe it or not. I bet all that fog sure won't be...mist.
[He chuckles, and the lights in his eyesockets focus on the screen.]
Anyway. I've been around the block a few times, but I just figured I'd ask. Anyone seen another skeleton around? Tall, loud, likes saying "nyeh heh heh"? He's like me, but the opposite in every conceivable way.
Let me know.
[And the feed goes dark.]

[He looks vaguely amused at the question, though. People seem to enjoy assuming that he was a resurrected something-or-other.]
no subject
You were born a skeleton.
[The unsure look is back.]
How does that work, exactly?
no subject
[Another wink.]
Mostly it's just magic. All monsters're made of the stuff.
no subject
Fair enough. So instead of humans, I assume that these, er... monsters are the norm where you come from.
no subject
[Better not to say what happens to the humans that do fall down. That's not his business, and he doubt that'd endear this guy to him in the slightest.]
no subject
[Well... that sounds terrible even by his standards, especially if all the other unde— er, monsters are as sociable as this one.]
What a strange world you come from. The monsters from my homeworld are more fitting of the name, and the skeletons anything but friendly. I apologize.
I suppose you'd say that was a grave misjudgment on my part.
[Oh no. Don't get him started.]
no subject
Witness now the start of a beautiful friendship.]
Hey, fuggedaboutit. We get that all the time. Glad you and I could get to the marrow of the issue.
But, uh, yeah. Monster's just a species, like anything else.
no subject
[Carlisle Longinmouth, nephew of infamous monster and undead hunters Benistad and Boris Longinmouth, is getting along with a talking skeleton. Alert the media.
Or don't because he doesn't need another reason they should have disowned him.]
no subject
[He likes this guy. First impressions notwithstanding, anyway.]
If they're from my world, they should be fine. But still, I'm glad this didn't exskelate any further.
no subject
Yes, it's bad enough we all have a bone to pick with the false gods for bringing us here. It'd be best if they didn't bring in something even more unsavory. We apparently have people here who can do that all on their own.
no subject
[This is the kind of banter he can get behind.]
no subject
I'm sure there are a few here who would find such witticisms to be punbearable.
no subject
[Wow.
This guy is extremely good.
And here Sans just hates forming attachments but...damnit, he kind of already likes this guy, misconceptions notwithstanding.]
You gotta respect someone with a knack for bad jokes.
no subject
[Oh, that's a more genuine smile. Look at him, making friends with someon that, ten minutes ago, he would have considered one of his greatest fears.
Well, they still are. One doesn't spend a lifetime in fear of necromancers, only to be cured of his undead-related apprehension in less than an hour. Baby steps.]
Ah, forgive my rudeness. Not just earlier, but this whole time. I'm Carlisle Longinmouth.
no subject
Ah, well. It's an old joke, and he laughs anyway. Still funny.]
Name's Sans. 'S no problem. Common misconceptions. Apparently monsters get kind of a bad rap, who'da thunk? They should really give us a leg up, you know?
no subject
[Even when he's feeling guilty and apologetic, he keeps up.]

Plenty of monsters aren't too fond of humans for trapping us down there, but eh...I don't really care about hating anybody.
