I VISITED THE SUPERMARKET TODAY. THERE IS A REASON THEY CALL IT A SUPERMARKET.
THAT’S RIGHT!
YOU’VE GUESSED IT!
THEY SELL SPAGHETTI THERE! ALL KINDS! CANNED KINDS, UNCOOKED KINDS, FROZEN KINDS, ALL THE VARIETIES ARE THERE! I HAVE THIS STORY I’D LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU, MY DEAR DIARY!
I WAS SOLVING AN EXPERT VERSION OF JUNIOR JUMBLE (WHICH FRISK SOLVED EFFORTLESSLY, I DO NOT KNOW HOW!) WHEN SUDDENLY SANS TOLD ME THAT HE WAS GOING TO THE MARKET. I ASKED HIM WHICH MARKET, AND HE SAID THE BIG ONE. I SAID, WHICH BIG ONE? AND HE SAID ‘THE ONE THAT IS SUPER.’ I ASKED IF I COULD COME AND HE SAID SURE!
I WAS SO EXCITED THAT I NEARLY TORE MY PUZZLE IN HALF. IT WAS ACCIDENTAL, OF COURSE. MY GLOVES SLIPPED!
ANYWAYS, WE WENT TO THE SUPERMARKET AND OH MY GOD THERE WAS FOOD EVERYWHERE! THERE WERE FOODS I’VE NEVER EVEN SEEN BEFORE! DID YOU KNOW THAT THEY SELL CORN IN A BAG? SANS SAID I SHOULD STICK IT IN THE MICROWAVE LATER TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS, SO I’LL DO THAT RIGHT AFTER I WRITE THIS VERY SENTENCE.
OKAY, SO APPARENTLY CORN EXPLODES WHEN YOU PUT IT IN THE MICROWAVE. UNDYNE CAME INTO THE KITCHEN AND ASKED IF I WAS WATCHING HUMAN HISTORY, AND I TOLD HER THAT I WAS JUST ‘POPPING CORN’ AS SANS SAID. UNDYNE ENDED UP EATING MORE OF THE POPCORN THAN I DID, BUT THAT’S ONLY BECAUSE I WAS PRETTY SURE IT’D GET STUCK IN MY TEETH. I WASN’T SCARED OR ANYTHING.
….
REALLY! I WASN’T!
ANYWAYS, WE CONTINUED LOOKING AROUND THE SUPERMARKET. SANS BROUGHT A TINY BASKET AND I, OF COURSE, GOT THE BIGGEST, WIDEST CART THEY HAD AVAILABLE. I WAS GLAD I DID, BECAUSE SANS SAID THAT HE WANTED TO SHOW ME SOMETHING, SO I OF COURSE TOOK HIS SUGGESTION AND WENT OVER TO THE ISLE THAT BLEW ME OUT OF MY BATTLE BODY!
IT WAS AN ISLE.
FULL.
OF.
PASTA.
I SORT OF LOST COUNT ON HOW MANY BOXES OF UNCOOKED AND COOKED AND AGED SPAGHETTI I BOUGHT, SO SANS EVENTUALLY STOPPED ME AND TOLD ME THAT I MIGHT BE ‘PUSHING THE LIMITS.’ THAT’S JUST IT SANS, YOU SILLY. I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, HAVE NO LIMITS!
…. EXCEPT FOR MY WALLET.
UNFORTUNATELY I ENDED UP SPENDING ALL THE MONEY I HAD IN MY WALLET AND THEN SOME. SANS PAID OFF THE REST. I DON’T THINK HE MINDED, BUT HE TOLD ME THAT WITH ALL THAT PASTA, I BETTER NOT ‘FORGETTI TO PAY HIM BACK.’ IT WAS AT THAT POINT THAT I PROMPTLY RETURNED HOME TO BURY MY ANGST IN PASTA.
UNDYNE HELPED ME COOK SOME OF IT, BUT I THINK TORIEL BECAME A LITTLE PEEVED WHEN WE STARTED BREAKING PANS. AROUND HALFWAY THROUGH SHE STARTED HELPING ME COOK THE SPAGHETTI IN… ER… ‘APPROPRIATE PROPORTIONS.’ IT WASN’T AS EXCITING, BUT FOR THE MOST PART, I THINK IT WAS GREAT! YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE EXPRESSIONS ON THEIR FACES WHEN THEY TRIED IT! FRISK EVEN HAD THE SAME EXPRESSION THEY HAD WHEN THEY TRIED THE SPAGHETTI I HID UNDER MY HAT THAT ONE TIME. BOY, THOSE WERE THE DAYS. I HOPE I’M NOT RE-IGNITING ANY SENSE OF LOVE THEY HAD FOR ME. THAT COULD LEAD TO SOME AWKWARD EVENTS.
