Kiss Kiss Fall In Love
(What do they think of love?)
(Mayyyyyy have made this a little too long for one character but I'm having fun, may do the next character, maybe >:))
Sans: "what do you mean it's different?" Sans may have many friends, but where he feels love is probably from a few of them, and that's maybe his first hand experience of seeing how love affects people (besides him when it comes to Papyrus) and he thinks that's just what love is entirely. He would likely say that he's not "loving enough" but the thing is, he does have his own form of love.
And he's very simple about it, too. If you're someone in his life, he cares for you and takes the time to hangout with you, whether it'd be a little run in or paying each other a visit. And if you've gone down a path that is destructive to yourself and others around you, he doesn't actively try to stop you. Instead, he believes you can still make the right choices and hopes that you value the friendships you've made along the way, him included. He trusts you to do it, even if he won't be able to remember it the next time.
And then you have the promise. Isn't that also an act of love? That he cares about his friend more than enough to do something he knows he might regret? And even if it's true, he still holds onto that promise.
(and then you also have That One Dialogue at the end of neutral run that's before the True Pacifist End where he's about to make a promise to you as he talks to you about not giving up, even if he's stuck down there still for who knows how long)
Sans loves deeply, he's just cool and collected about it as he always is.
And boy, it's quite the surprise when he realises it. And that's just him dealing with his friends and family. When he meets you, he doesn't quite get it when he lingers around you for far too long, the way his jokes are always aimed to please you, the fact that your home has become his at this point, isn't it all the same? He finds your company pleasant, cares for you, he likes you.
But his feelings for you manifests just a little differently. He'd be so willing to put your needs above his, to be by your side, even if no one else will be, that he wants to have a life with you in it, in a way that feels more.. Personal, closer.
And yet, when you ask him, he'd give you that little shrug of his, "it's all the same, isn't it?" before holding hands with you and asking if you want to skip cooking breakfast and get some of that real good grub from Grillby's.

"what is their favorite meal like?? you can answer anyone but I'm in particular asking about papyrus and ht papyrus"
So tbth I tend to be pretty bad at favorite food hc bc I pretty much love all food and struggle to really determine what kind of food prefs characters would have, so I'll usually just completely make stuff up, which is nyot how I usually do things!! Of course w/ some of the UT characters thankfully we do have SOME input of their canon preferences...
However. As is the way w/ most things Papyrus I have thought abt the implications of the QnA waaay too much. As we know Flowey states Papyrus' favorite food to be dinosaur egg oatmeal, whereas nobody else knew and Papyrus himself stated not remembering. We also know, despite fandom portrayal, Papyrus has never actually eaten his own spaghetti, so we don't really know his thoughts on it.
The trick with Papyrus is that he lies all the time. He lies all the time! So does Flowey actually know his favorite? Or does he just think he does? Maybe he just made it up to sound knowledgeable. Flowey also lies (but possibly less so, or at least less smoothly than Papyrus, since usually Flowey will eventually state if he'd lied).
As a big fan of oatmeal myself, I do like to believe this is true, though, and it's fun to imagine that, while his favorite remains the dinosaur egg kind, that he gets very excited about the variety of other flavors once surfacing.
^ longest winded way possible to say that I like to hc Papyrus' fave food is oatmeal, BUT. I also like to imagine he likes fruity flavors, too! Like blueberry pecan or strawberries and crème <3
As for ht Papyrus, my interp Dove, I generally imagine having lived through a famine, amongst other things lol, it really changes the way you perceive food. While I definitely can't relate on that front, I do have experience having an incredibly limited diet bc of health reasons for several years. And now, I've always been a little bit of a """foodie""" (I really wanted to be a chef for most of my childhood), but coming out of that, I can say the way I perceive and appreciate food is undoubtedly different.
So with all of that completely unnecessary context, I imagine the types of foods and flavors Dove tends towards are very rich and rounded flavors, as opposed to how I'd imagine UT Papyrus seeks out brighter, sharper flavors. Not necessarily heavy, as I do still believe he'd be opposed to particularly greasy foods, but hearty stews, casserole type dishes, slow cooked oatmeal, rice pudding, you know what I mean? Probably mostly things that cook for a long time, things that thicken and develop complex flavors.
And, body willing when the chronic pain isn't too bad, I think he'd really enjoy making things as much from scratch as possible. I definitely think he’s more of a chef than a baker or patissier, so he tends toward savory more often than not, and avoids meats usually (not always an issue, but sometimes a strong aversion), so he'd probably cook a lot with rice and potatoes, all sorts of them and other root vegetables or squash.
I can't say I think he'd have any singular favorite food, but he would probably say all sorts of dishes are his favorites if he can smell them or is making it atm lol
I knooow you said I could add Papyri but I'm still going to apologize for this lmao, but I'm sorry, I have to add him or I'll Die / j but the aforementioned stuff I added abt my own experiences has really influenced how I write UF Papyrus post surfacing.
I've always been fond of the idea of things being worse in UF's underground in technical aspects too, like the CORE not functioning as well amongst other things that can cause complications in supply chains and production of necessary things, including food. Growing up with food scarcity constantly waxing and waning and never really ever being definably good wound up stunting most monsters knowledge of food.
So, suffice to say, once surfaced, there's a whole world of new things to discover and try and learn about. It's such a different experience than with HT, where they did have a reliable source of food and access to information about it, lost it, and then got it back (though I'm sure there still was plenty new stuff all the same).
Like, could you imagine having only ever seeing two colours for most of your life, and then seeing everything in full spectrum? So that's a driving force in what gets Edge so invested in cooking and baking. More than anything he wants to learn. It's exciting! And he can finally provide the ones he cares about with a surplus of high quality, well prepared nourishment. It's wild!
So similarly, he wouldn't really be able to choose one singular dish (might even say smth silly abt having to try every dish in the world before knowing for sure)...though I do love to hc that he has and always will have a soft spot for oatmeal made with a little honey and cinnamon <3
