Greetings, humans! I’m quite impressed that you have such small devices capable of connecting to the internet! Why, it's even smaller than the smallest cell phones! The portability is simply amazing!

That being said…perhaps one of you could help me find the answer to a very important question! [Papyrus’ face fills the screen.] WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY GLORIOUS FACE?! [Oddly enough, it seems to be a normal human face…albeit a bit close to the screen.]

IT…IT’S COMPLETELY COVERED IN…FLESH! SKIN! OTHER POSSIBLE HUMAN ORGANS! HOW CAN I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, POSSIBLY BE ANY SORT OF MASCOT FOR MONSTERKIND WITH A FACE NOT BEFITTING OF MY TRUE SELF? That's not all! My entire body is now completely encased in this fleshy prison! Why, there's not a single bone in sight! I've not built my calcium levels to near perfection to have it all end like this!

Ah, that is not to say that I do not value humans! Not at all! Why, one of my very best friends in the entire world is human! I'm certain I make a very handsome human! However, I know that I make a much more handsome skeleton! THEREFORE! I require someone to tell me how I am to go about reversing whatever magic has made me this way at once!

Now, onto the second order of business! [Papyrus shifts the camera’s focus to a Litleo sitting patiently at his feet.] This young monster has been following me all day! They're clearly in awe of my greatness! Of course, I do tend to have that affect on others, but, they're refusing to give me their name, and their parents are surely worrying! What kind of awesome role model would the Great Papyrus be if he encouraged truancy on such a level as this? Perhaps one of you humans has seen their mother? Please, do not hesitate to inform me! I will escort them home myself! It is the least I can do for such a devoted fan!

I get that it's very surprising, but you don't need to scream about it. I will try to address all of your questions as best as I can.

[There's so much at a time, though.]

Considering you are announcing yourself by name repeatedly and probably sound the same as you did before, I don't think anyone you know will have trouble recognizing you. Your face is still unique even as a human, by the way, we all tend to look different.

Are we cool so far? Okay, moving on: yes, we are all recruited to take care of these little monsters. ...I will try to address this as sensitively as I can, but I have never had a dialog with a monster with communication on your level. Yes, the culture of this world is based heavily around these Pokemon and training them or whatever else activity people choose. So you could view yourself as your Litleo's gym teacher if you like, but these monsters are not sapient enough to have names of their own, so you will have to give it one.

...I suppose you can say you've adopted it?

I AM NOT SCREAMING! [He screams.]

B-but! My flawless complexion! My staggeringly sharp cheekbones!

Take care of them, eh? [He thinks this over a minute.] Why, judging by that description they're quite like the dogs from back home! ....I would sincerely hope not as annoying. [He turns to Litleo] You there! If you insist on basking in my presence, then you must swear to me at this moment and from here on out, you will not tamper with any of my bone attacks! Understood? [Litleo just tilts his head in a cute manner.]

Dude. Still screaming.

[He's certainly something else.]

You don't have to worry about your bone attacks, we lose any significant supernatural abilities when we come here. It's not normal for humans to rip out their bones and attack with them anyway, we need those to hold up our bodies.

...I hope "you there" is not the name you decided on for it.

[Slightly annoyed at the idea of tearing out his own bones.] Well of course not, that would be silly! Only a monster as great as I can truly master bone combat magic! An annoying dog, however, keeps stealing my special attack! He's so annoying!!!

Certainly not! I...however....[PANIC.] IT'S SUCH A HUGE RESPONSIBILITY! I'VE NEVER NAMED ANYTHING BEFORE! NOT EVEN SANS' PET ROCK!

Oh my god, Papyrus, chill with the dog, the dog is not here.

[Papyrus and Sans...that couldn't possibly be what she thinks it is, could it?]

What about Courier? Or Calibri? ...Hell, what about FangSong?

Not now at least. [Shifty eyes go!] He could be anywhere...

Hmm! I believe any underling of the Great Papyrus must have a similarly great but not as great name! [To his Litleo] I now pronounce you Herculanum! [Herculanum tilts his head the other way.]

[Probably for the third time during this conversation, Jade just sighs and shakes her head.]

Herculanum's a cool name, you can call him "Herc" for short. I like to give nicknames to my Pokemon in that way. [Never mind that technically you're creating a nickname for a nickname already.]

It seems like you're settling down a little, is there anything else you wanted to know? Or can I ask you some things now?

Hmmm! He needs something to complete his look, though! Perhaps a scarf to match that of my own, yes? [Herculanum likes this idea. He likes it so much he lets out a small Ember attack in excitement.] FIRE MAGIC! EGADS! I'VE BEEN TEAMED WITH THE MOST POWERFUL OF MONSTERS! [Excite!]

Nyeh heh heh! Ask away! The Great Papyrus is a literal library of information! Meaning! I live quite close to it!

Hahaha, yeah! A cool red scarf to enhance his coolness! Just make sure he doesn't set it on fire.

[They've got to make Pokemon-proof items like that, though.]

All right, well, you seem really calm about being around humans and said something about being a mascot for monsters. So where exactly did you come from and are you on some sort of super special mission to introduce humans to monsters?

PERFECT!

A long time ago, before I was even born, all monsters were forced to live underground! We all hoped that some day the barrier keeping us there would be broken, and then, Frisk, my first ever human friend fell down a hole and wound up doing just that! They're the ambassador for monsters now, and I, the Great Papyrus, am the mascot!

Oh noooooooo, they trapped you there?

[That's so mean!]

I hope that monsters and humans can learn to get along now!

[...]

Although, now you're here. Will you be taking up the mission of befriending humans and monsters here?

Well, they must have had good reason! I hope.

But yes! We can all be friends now!

Of course! The Great Papyrus never leaves a job undone!

Okay--so then you do not mind if I be your human friend in the Pokemon world, then! My name is Jade!

Good to have met you!
