[They had talked about it a while ago but never got around to doing so, which was just plain unacceptable. They need to help him because it was quite obvious the smaller skeleton wasn't going to help himself. So today.. today would be the day for Sans's INTERVENTION~
Why they decided to go with workout clothes, who knows. It seemed like a good idea. Workouts were motivating, was MTT's logic. As were the obnoxious colors. Really, they looked like they were from some really bad 80s workout video. Even if all the spandex was flattering on himself and gave the robot a nice view of his not!boyfriend's physique wait that's not what's important right now.
Having somehow located and been undetected by the smaller skeleton, Mettaton and Papyrus finally made their dramatic entrance, complete with music playing from the glambot's chest speaker as they pose dramatically.]
Sans, darling~ It's time you got your life in order! And who better to help you than you're own brother and your favorite celebrity-slash-employer!
[It wasn't like they hadn't tried. But between Papyrus' intense days wandering around and befriending people, Mettaton's performance and practice schedule, and Sans' habit of simply... teleporting around when he wanted privacy... It was hard to catch him with the both of them.
Thankfully, ever since that unhappy week with the fog, Papyrus has begun taking a little more Papyrus time. A little more time to catch the wind with family and friends, instead of (rather frantically) doing his best to make connections with the people of the city, and impress Asgore with his progress.
Taking entire days off makes it so much easier to actually meet up with Mettaton! And, with just a teensy bit of snooping... Here they were. Flashy clothes, flashier music, and all the uplifting sparkles a robot and skeleton could muster.]
And by help... We mean encouragement! and inspiration! Maybe a little brainstorming!
For starters... Sans. We're here for you! And we know you can succeed!!!
[Sans stared at Mettaton and Papyrus like they had swapped heads.]
uh, thanks, papyrus, i appreciate it. but most people don't need cheerleaders to help them study, y'know.
[Make no mistake, Sans knows why you're really here, he sees those workout outfits, but that doesn't mean he's quite ready for an "intervention" like this.]
Not that study cheerleaders are anything to be ashamed of. I might not have finished my assignments... I can't begin to count how many times. If it weren't for our father, stepping in, and encouraging me!
[Ahem, but that's now what they're here for! Papyrus rests on hand on his hip and raises the other in the air.]
But anyway!!!
Part of taking care of yourself is knowing that you have people who care! Take it from me, Sans. It feels a lot better to know others are cheering for you!
[WHOOPS. He didn't forget to update Mettaton on the recent things that Papyrus found out, exactly. But they were a little too private and personal to just bring up. After all, the robot wasn't invited to the skeleton family intervention.]
Or, other things! That we're more able to help with!
[Papyrus has wisened on to some of Sans' deflective methods by now, after all.]
We are not just here to kidnap you from your book and do something fun. We're here to show you we care! And believe in you, doing things like reading your science book! And... whatever you're going to do with that.
But, if you wanted to go shopping, or eat out, or... something to make you feel like a new Sans... I would be with you all the way!

2016-03-04 00:23 (UTC)who are you callin' "handsome"?
[Then he turns his attention mostly to Papyrus.]
is that really all this is about? you're just here to remind me you care?
[Forgive him for being somewhat skeptical.]

2016-03-04 04:13 (UTC)[Maybe they should have planned this out a little more.
....Naaaahhhhh.
But Mettaton and Sans raise a very pressing question.]
I'm handsome too, right...?

I would say what you really are, Papy-darling, but your brother is present.

2016-03-04 17:20 (UTC)... BUT WE'RE GETTING OFFTOPIC!
Sans! The first step to helping you is to tell us what you're having trouble with! Such as napping too much. Or something to that effect.
