[Read the Newsletter] I can't just sit still because it's a summer-themed newsletter. I need a summer vacation-
Oof
((Reblog or Halloween won’t be celebrated. If you reblog this in 50 seconds, you’ll have the best Halloween and be blessed by the spoopy skeleton gods.))
((This skeleton will also break all chain mail or reblog or die posts and you’ll live a happy life.))
It took me a while to realize it, but Sans and Papyrus have differently shaped bones. (Not to mention the artistic stuff Papyrus gets up to in his ‘absolutely normal attack’.) Fittingly, Sans’ are wider and rounder, while Papyrus’ are thinner and more angular.
When I realized this, I immediately checked videos of the Lost Souls segment and confirmed: Papyrus is the only one of them to attack. Sans stands passively, apathetically aside.
But before the final fight begins, when everyone’s trapped in vines and fending off Flowey’s attacks, the bone flung up isn’t Papyrus’. It isn’t Sans’. It isn’t shaped like EITHER ONE’S attacks.
It’s lopsided and looks like a combination of their bones. The left’s a little lump but has a thinness like Papyrus’, the right’s more rounded like Sans’, with the angles of the epiphyses switched around. It looks like they worked in sync, flinging up a bone at the same time, in the same place. A combined bone attack.
It’s not just that it’s one of Papyrus’ attacks, mishapen from being flung in a rush to save the human; there’s nothing off about Undyne’s spear, Alphys’ electricity, or Toriel’s or Asgore’s fire.
So this is a continuation of what others have already pointed out: Papyrus and Sans share a lot of attack patterns and habits. Well enough that their attacks can work in the same space, functioning as one; at least when they’re acting to save a friend from a specific directional danger. Even though it’s lopsided and not quite symmetrical, the bone works well enough.
I want to consider this evidence toward the theory that the skeleton brothers are secretly the separated halves of a scientist named G*****… but it’s not conclusive enough alone. Any thoughts?
Okay, my baby doesn't deserve this slander 😭

Say what you will about Undertale, but “I can’t go to hell. I’m all out of vacation days” is a powerful statement to say to a child holding you at knifepoint.
