Papyrus trudged through the snow, his expression set to that of determination. He'd just finished calibrating another one of his puzzles, and he was off to finish another. Unlike his lazy brother, once he set his mind to something, he would follow through until the end.
As the tall skeleton marched towards his destination, he happened to spot a lone yellow flower on the path ahead, sprouting from the midst of a snow poff. It was peculiar for such a vibrant flower to be living in Snowdin... but Papyrus shook the thought off. He had a job to do, after all! Setting his thoughts aside, he continued onward, passing the uniquely placed flower without a second glance. That is, until it spoke.
" Howdy!"
Papyrus froze in his tracks. There hadn't been anyone behind him before- or perhaps he'd simply not noticed? Perturbed, he turned around just slightly with the hope of spotting the source of the voice. His nonexistent brow furrowed. There was nothing there.... was a ghost playing a trick on him?
"Howdy!" The voice repeated. From lower this time. Papyrus directed his gaze downward, his eyesockets widening as he saw the yellow flower from before peering up at him, face and all. The flower grinned widely.
" There ya go, pal! Finally found me, huh?" It said. Papyrus simply blinked.
" Not much of a talker? I understand. The name's Flowey, by the way. Flowey the Flower!" It continued. Papyrus managed to snap himself out of his confused trance, before taking on a look of curiosity.
" OH, ERM- HELLO, TALKING FLOWER..."
"Flowey."
"RIGHT, MY APOLOGIES. I DON'T SUPPOSE YOU NEED ANYTHING? I'M KIND OF IN A HURRY...."
"Oh, my bad! I didn't mean to intrude, I'll make myself scarce, if you want." The flower apologized. Papyrus quickly held up his hands in defense.
" NO, NO! DO STAY.... IT'S NOT THAT IMPORTANT ANYWAY...." He exclaimed, trailing off. The flower cocked its head to the side, smiling.
" Alright, well if you're sure. I seem to have lost my way...."
" WHERE ARE YOU HEADED? I MIGHT BE ABLE TO-"
"I'm on my way to Hotland! I appreciate your offer." The flower said, pausing. " Oh my- did I cut you off? My bad, I do that some times..."
"IT'S OKAY.... WOULD YOU LIKE MY HELP?" Papyrus asked, a little hesitant. Flowey's grin widened.
" That would be great!"
" ALRIGHT, WELL IF YOU TURN AROUND AND HEAD BACK THAT WAY-"
"Oh- sorry, did I not specify? I have a bad memory.... you wouldn't be willing to physically show me the way, would you? It's not a problem if you can't." The flower interrupted once again. Papyrus frowned.
" I MEAN, I SUPPO-"
" Alrighty then! Lead the way, mister!"
Papyrus blinked, glancing towards the row of trees he'd been originally heading for. With a sigh, he completely turned around, starting in the direction of hotland. The flower followed, popping in and out of the ground as it attempted to keep up.
" Thanks a bunch! And if I may ask, what's your name, bud?"
" .... PAPYRUS."
" Papyrus, huh? Well I think this is the beginning of a BEAUTIFUL friendship." Flowey said, his tone cheery and positive. Despite the flower's sunny disposition, Papyrus couldn't help but feel something was off....
