Flava

Appearizzle

pə-PY-rəs ) is tha brutha of Sans n' a major characta up inyo. His main motizzle is ta capture a human so his schmoooove ass can become a gangmember of tha Royal Guard , n' finally have playaz n' popularity.

Papyrus be a tall, like anatomically inaccurate skeleton, wit a skull mo' vertical n' geometric than his brutha n' shit. Bein skeletal, nuff of his wild lil' fuckin expressions incorporate a toothy grin. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch yo. His eyes resemble vertical slits; his skeletal pseudo-brows form most of his wild lil' fuckin expressions yo. Dude has eyeballs which show at times when he is fuckin wit phat emotions.

Normal ("Battle Body")

For most of his in-game appearances, da thug wears his "battle body," a tracksuit dat his schmoooove ass pimped fo' a cold-ass lil costume party.[1] It consistz of a white chest plate wit gold trim, coquelicot gloves wit a golden trim, blue briefs wit a golden belt, n' knee-high coquelicot boots fo' realz. A symbol dat resemblez dat of Starman from tha MOTHER series adorns tha chestplate yo. Dude also wears a gangbangin' finger-lickin' dirty-ass short, orange-red cape.

Befriendin (Def Dude)

Halfway all up in tha date/hangout wit Papyrus, his schmoooove ass chizzlez tha fuck into his "secret style": a funky-ass backward basebizzle cap, a t-shirt dat readz "Def Dude," lil' small-ass shorts wit buttons, gloves wit striped trim, knee-high socks, n' sneakers yo. Dude also wears basketballs on his shoulders, likely Mettatonz MTT-Brand FashionBall.[2]

Durin tha "date" wit Alphys, Papyrus arrives bustin a sweatband, shorts, n' a t-shirt dat readz "JOGBOY," wit hearts on tha pauldrons yo. Dude still wears his boots, gloves, n' scarf.

Personalitizzle

Papyrus be a gangbangin' flamboyant skeleton whoz ass presents a cold-ass lil confident, charismatic image of his dirty ass yo. Dude works hard and, despite his brash personality, is kind at ass yo. Dude is optimistic n' innocent even when tha protagonist beheadz his ass up in a Genocizzle Route.[3] Dude be also occasionally oblivious n' nonobservant,[4] but can be cunnin at times, as peeped when he uses reverse psychologizzle ta trick Undyne tha fuck into befriendin the protagonist.[5]

Papyrus believes up in others just as much as his thugged-out lil' punk-ass believes up in his dirty ass yo. Dude has so much faith up in his thugged-out abilitizzles dat da thug waited outside of Undynez doggy den all night n' begged her ta accept his ass tha fuck into tha Royal Guard. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Seein his thugged-out lil' persistence, Undyne offered ta train his ass but instead gave his ass cookin lessons.[6]

Dude cooks spaghetti up in his spare time, though nuff charactas seem ta be thinkin dat he aint straight-up phat at dat shit.[7][8] One of tha reasons fo' dis is cuz Papyrus never ate spaghetti his dirty ass ta complete tha chefz guidebook ta cookin by tokin they creation before serving.[9] He, therefore, cooks spaghetti only cuz any suckas loves ta smoke it, indicatin da ruffneck do not play favorites.[10] Dude loves puzzlez n' japes, as shown up in tha a shitload of puzzlez he prepares fo' tha protagonist as well as his collection of "complex tomes bout puzzle creation." Though advanced puzzlez may seem cerebral, Papyrus also rides hard fo' childrenz books[11] n' is somewhat childish wit tha decoration of his bangin room yo. Dude also collects action figures.[12]

Papyrus also watches Mettatonz TV shows,[13] n' admires Mettaton so much dat da thug would move ta Hotland,[14] a region dat dat schmoooove muthafucka hates.[15]

Main Rap

Yo, sometime before tha eventz of Undertale, Papyrus n' his brutha flossed up one dizzle up in Snowdin n' asserted theyselves. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Sometime afta that, Papyrus became playaz wit Undyne n' fuckin started hustlin wit her muthafuckin ass.

Neutral Route

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT!?

THIS WAS ANOTHER DECISIVE VICTORY FOR PAPYRUS!! Papyrus afta Da Gauntlet of Deadly Terror

Papyrus first appears up in Snowdin Forest, where he arrives ta check up on his brutha n' shiznit fo' realz. Afta peepin' dat Sans had not made any progress over eight solid days, Papyrus, all salty ta tha human hidin nearby, berates Sans fo' not recalibratin his thugged-out lil' puzzles.[16] Dude then delivers a long-ass tirade ta Sans dat da thug will capture a human n' become popular. Shiiit, dis aint no joke. Further up in tha forest, Papyrus meets tha protagonist fo' tha last time, though he initially confuses dem fo' a rock.[17]

Papyrus attempts ta antagonize tha protagonist wit puzzlez n' japes yo, but he eventually warms up ta dem wild-ass muthafuckas yo. Dude almost refuses ta fight tha protagonist outta bitch ass muthafucka.[18] Though Papyrus initiates a encounter, he never kills tha protagonist n' instead places dem up in his shed if they HP reduces ta one. Da protagonist can easily escape his shed.

Ultimately decidin dat tha protagonist is bumpin', Papyrus lets dem continue tha fuck into Waterfall, advises dem on how tha fuck ta exit tha Underground,[19] n' offers either a hangout or a thugged-out date back at his fuckin lil' doggy den dependin on if tha protagonist flirted wit his ass durin his battle.

Returnin ta Papyruss home afta Papyruss fight initiates tha befriendin event. Durin tha befriendin event, tha player can press [C] ta open tha Dating/Friendshizzle HUD, which consistz of a cold-ass lil clock, a radar dat tracks tha Annoyin Dawg, a level of crime graph, a funky-ass bar wit "REEL IT IN!" above it, a population chart, n' a egg. Da date shown on tha clock matches tha dizzle on tha playaz computer, n' tha graphic next ta it chizzlez accordingly based on tha time of dizzle tha playaz computa provides. If tha playa opens tha HUD before Papyrus readz from tha dating/hangout book ta open tha HUD, he realizes it has already been done. But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat if they do not open tha HUD afta a cold-ass lil certain period of time, Papyrus moves on n' tha HUD aint present fo' tha befriendin event.

Papyrus dresses up in his "secret style" n' hides a special gift under his basebizzle cap fo' tha protagonist. Ultimately, Papyrus decides dat tha protagonist cares too much bout his ass fo' they own good,[20] n' sendz dem back on they way wit his beeper number, which tha protagonist can call at any time ta hear his opinions bout tha room dat they is in.

When tha protagonist make they way tha fuck into Waterfall, Papyrus attempts ta sway Undyne from cappin' them; Undyne refuses ta yield, however, n' Papyrus findz his dirty ass obligated ta help her muthafuckin ass.[21] Dude calls tha protagonist n' asks dem ta confirm what tha fuck they is currently bustin. Papyrus is loyal ta both Undyne n' tha protagonist by employin a ruse dat backfires regardless of what tha fuck tha protagonist do.[22]

Papyrus calls tha protagonist while Undyne is chasin dem n' say dat they should all hang out. If befriended, Papyrus is waitin outside her house n' can be talked ta as early as durin tha chase.[23] Afta tha protagonist chizzlez whether or not ta give Undyne wata up in Hotland, they can git all up in Undynez house, n' Papyrus offers dialogue based on tha protagonistz actions afta his call.[24][25][26] If tha protagonist gained no EXP, Papyrus gives tha option ta ride wit her muthafuckin ass.[27] Dude flees from tha hangout early on, afta rockin reverse psychologizzle ta git Undyne ta befriend tha protagonist.

True Pacifist Route

THAT'S RIGHT, HUMAN! YOU CAN WIN!!

JUST DO WHAT I, WOULD DO...

BELIEVE IN YOU!!! Papyrus

Befriendin Papyrus is necessary ta finish a True Pacifist Route Flowey guides his ass ta booty-call all tha protagonistz playaz ta New Home

Before Asrielz boss battle, Papyrus rushes ta intervene wit tha battle between Asgore n' tha protagonist.[29] Dude then meets Toriel fo' tha last time n' becomes annoyed once dat dunkadelic hoe drops some lyrics ta his ass a pun.[30]

Flowey then restrains Papyrus n' tha rest of tha monstas present wit vines. Papyrus defendz tha protagonist from Floweyz bullets n' states his wild lil' faith up in tha protagonist.

Epilogue

Papyrus discovers dat there is no need fo' tha Royal Guard no mo' n' proclaims dat dis is "THE WORST POSSIBLE ENDING." Dude also comments dat Toriel be a "HUGE DORK."[31]

In tha credits, it seems nuff of Papyruss trips have come true: da ruffneck drives a red hoopty along a highway, suttin' dat schmoooove muthafucka has always wanted ta do. Lata on, Asgore is shown trimmin a hedge up in tha shape of Papyruss face, suttin' dat Papyrus wished would happen once his thugged-out lil' punk-ass became a gangbangin' hyped royal guardsman.[32]

Genocizzle Route

FIRST: YOU'RE A FREAKING WEIRDO!

NOT ONLY DO YOU NOT LIKE PUZZLES.

BUT THE WAY YOU SHAMBLE ABOUT FROM PLACE TO PLACE...

THE WAY YOUR HANDS ARE ALWAYS COVERED IN DUSTY POWDER.

IT FEELS...

LIKE YOUR LIFE IS GOING DOWN A DANGEROUS PATH. Papyrus confrontin tha protagonist on tha Genocizzle Route

In tha Genocizzle Route, Papyrus pulls much of tha same antics dat da ruffneck do up in a Neutral/Pacifist route, except often cites tha protagonistz unwillingnizz ta complete his thugged-out lil' puzzles.[33] Dude remains oblivious ta tha protagonistz motives until they battle, where he instantly spares them, wishin ta guide tha protagonist on a funky-ass betta path n' be playas. Da protagonist can then spare or bust a cap up in Papyrus.

If tha protagonist kills him, da perved-out muthafucka states da perved-out muthafucka still believes up in tha protagonist n' be thinkin dat they can become a funky-ass betta person. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. If they decizzle ta spare him, Papyrus proclaims dat they "DIDN'T DO A VIOLENCE", n' say dat da thug was secretly terrified of tha protagonist.[34] From dat point on, tha protagonist may chizzle ta "hang out" wit Papyrus, havin aborted tha Genocizzle Route by sparin his muthafuckin ass.

In Battle

For a in-battle description, peep Papyrus/In Battle.

Relationships

Da Protagonist

Despite wantin ta capture tha protagonist, Papyrus still cares bout them[35] n' eventually endz up dating/hangin up wit dem if tha protagonist do not bust a cap up in his muthafuckin ass yo. Dude turns tha protagonist down if they chizzle ta date, as he realizes da ruffneck do not feel tha same way bout dem wild-ass muthafuckas. Notably, Papyrus hangs up wit tha protagonist even if they had been on a Genocizzle Route up until sparin his muthafuckin ass.

Da protagonist remains playaz wit his ass all up in tha game n' gains tha mobilitizzle ta booty-call his ass on tha beeper almost anywhere.

Sans

Yo, sans is Papyruss brother, n' though Papyrus often chastises his ass fo' bein lazy n' detests his crazy-ass nuff skeleton puns dropped all up in tha game, tha two of dem care bout each other all muthafuckin day. It make me wanna hollar playa! Papyrus often cleans up afta Sans n' prompted his ass ta git a thang as a sentry.[36]

Papyrus is upset dat Sans naps so much, mostly all up in tha night,[37] n' mentions dat itz impressive how tha fuck much slackin off his brutha can do.[38] Even though Sans readz Papyrus bedtime stories n' is tha sole provider up in tha skeleton household, Papyrus takes care of his brutha n' wondaz what tha fuck Sans would do without such a "def muthafucka" watchin over his muthafuckin ass. Together, they made Papyruss "battle body" as well as his cardboard sentry station up in Snowdin Forest.[39]

Papyrus also recognizes dat Sans is secretive[40] n' kind of weird.[41]

Undyne

Papyrus n' Undyne is phat playaz fo' realz. Afta Papyrus axed ta join tha Royal Guard, Undyne gave his ass cookin lessons, n' they bonded. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Because Undyne aint gots tha ass ta tell Papyrus dat she aint NEVER gonna let his ass join tha Royal Guard, Papyrus continues tryin ta impress her by capturin a human. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Sometimes Undyne grosses Papyrus out,[42] but Papyrus looks up ta her as a role model. Papyrus be also oblivious at times when Undyne is mad salty at him,[43] though he is keen enough ta know ta present befriendin tha protagonist as a cold-ass lil challenge ta her muthafuckin ass.

Flowey

Papyrus sees Flowey as a phat playa cuz Flowey offers his ass predictions, flattery, lyrics, n' encouragement. Papyrus also borrows a shitload of Floweyz dialogue characteristics,[44] n' Flowey guides Papyrus ta booty-call tha protagonistz playaz ta interrupt Asgorez battle wit tha protagonist.

Trivia

His original gangsta name was "Times New Roman" durin pimpment. [45]

Papyruss pose is likely ta be a reference ta ancient Egyptian drawings dat resemble his stizzle fo' realz. Ancient Egyptians freestyled primarily on papyrus, a type of paper.

Papyruss name alludes ta tha typeface up in which da perved-out muthafucka speaks in, Papyrus. This be a reference ta Helvetica , which be a webcomic on some skeleton named afta a gangbangin' font.

, which be a webcomic on some skeleton named afta a gangbangin' font. When attemptin ta name tha fallen child " Papyru, " tha response becomes " I'LL ALLOW IT!!! "; as tha characta limit up in tha namin screen prevents Papyruss full name ta be entered.

" tha response becomes " "; as tha characta limit up in tha namin screen prevents Papyruss full name ta be entered. Toby Fox has "deconfirmed" a cold-ass lil claim dat Papyrus was inspired by Octopimp. [46]

Accordin ta Flowey, Papyruss straight-up chicken is "that oatmeal wit tha dinosaur eggs." [47]

Despite his obsession wit spaghetti, it is unknown whether he likes spaghetti his dirty ass since he is never straight-up peeped smokin dat shit.

Dude is tha only characta whose dialogue do not begin wit a asterisk. Dude be also tha only characta always ta drop a rhyme up in capitals (Mettaton stops poppin' off up in capitals when his thugged-out lil' punk-ass becomes Mettaton EX).

Attemptin ta leave tha electricitizzle maze up in Snowdin Forest causes Papyrus ta tell tha protagonist not ta be rude since he made tha puzzle just fo' dem wild-ass muthafuckas. Backin away again n' again n' again causes Papyrus ta ask if tha protagonist treats they mutha tha same way when she make dem puzzlez fo' realz. Afterward, he just respondz wit " HUMANS... " Bustin dis again n' again n' again durin Sanss Monsta Kidz Word Search puzzle prompts Papyrus ta tell Sans dat tha human is escapin since he made tha puzzle too hard.

"

There be a glitch where Papyrus speaks without rockin his wild lil' font. Before tha befriendin event wit Undyne, if tha protagonist confirms tha hangout from either side of Papyrus, speaks ta tha Mad Dummy, then strutts up ta Papyrus from behind, dis glitch occurs. Papyrus speaks up in his wild lil' font afta Undyne lyrics tha door, however.

If tha protagonist strutts up in n' outta Papyruss kitchen before tha befriendin event, he runs back n' forth across tha livin room n' offers differin dialogue based on how tha fuck nuff times da ruffneck did all dis bullshit. [48] [49]

When first seein Undyne up in Waterfall, when Papyrus comes up in ta give Undyne his bangin report, if da thug was capped n' tha protagonist moved left, they would still peep Papyruss sprite. This bug was fixed up in tha v1.001 patch.

Phone calls wit Papyrus reveal tha followin shiznit: [50] Papyrus has a imaginary store dat sells flames. Well shiiiit, it is " A DREAM OF [HIS] ." [51] Papyrus do not remember Napstablookz name n' tries ta guess it if tha protagonist phones his ass outside they crib yo. His guesses is "Spooky Bloo Bloo" n' "Napper Hog." Dude also do tha same wit Flowey by callin his ass "Flowery" n' wit Napstablookz cousin by callin his ass "Happstablook." Papyrus believes skeletons is warm n' cuddly yo, but dat pimps is spooky. [52] Da snailz of Blook Family Snail Farm remind Papyruz of his brother. [53] Papyrus would try smokin tha mushrooms up in tha room before tha darkenin lantern room n' tha lanterns up in tha darkenin lantern room. [54] Even though he never peeped it before, Papyrus has a gangbangin' finger-lickin' disdain fo' anime. [55] Papyrus say dat Undyne " ENRICHES [HIS] LIFE WITH SHED-BASED PUNS ". [56] Conveyor belts n' lasers is his " LEAST FAVORITE NIGHTMARE ". This is likely why da ruffneck do not like Hotland, cuz of tha nuff puzzlez dat involve lasers n' conveyor belts. [15]

While Papyruss "special attack" is shown as a funky-ass bone durin his battle, it is possibly implied dat tha battle somehow involved a Gasta Blaster. [57]

In a thugged-out deleted tweet, Toby Fox holla'd dat Papyrus would use tha term "aniki," a Japanese honorable term used fo' olda brothers or superiors. There be a multitude of interpretations fo' dis as it don't give a cold-ass lil clear answer. [58] But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat up in tha straight-up legit Japanese translation busted out up in 2017, Papyrus refers ta Sans as "niichan", a somewhat immature way of addressin onez olda brother.

But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat up in tha straight-up legit Japanese translation busted out up in 2017, Papyrus refers ta Sans as "niichan", a somewhat immature way of addressin onez olda brother. Papyrus seems ta contradict his dirty ass up in beeper calls wit Undyne or Sans, compared ta when he is only bustin lyrics ta tha protagonist. For example, if called on his own up in tha MTT Hotel, he remarks " I WOULD NEVER TAKE A VACATION FOR ANY REASON. " If Undyne is present, however, he agrees they should vacation ta a hotel together. But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat upon callin a second time up in tha MTT Hotel, Papyrus will reveal da thug was just bein sarcastic, n' repeats what tha fuck he normally say if she aint there.

" If Undyne is present, however, he agrees they should vacation ta a hotel together. Da artbook reveals dat Papyrus was originally goin ta wear a gangbangin' fedora n' be a cold-ass lil creep wit no redeemin qualities, n' his wild lil' straight-up show was goin ta be called "My fuckin Little Boney". This was chizzled since a mean-spirited characta would be unfittin ta tha game yo. His original gangsta design was also inspired by Dedan from OFF but has chizzled a shitload since.

Da artbook also reveals dat tha "Confused" sprites was drawn by "Guzusuru" yo, but was omitted since Toby Fox thought they looked too good.

In tha Japanese localization fo' Undertale , Papyrus uses a oldschool japanese freestylin form yo. His text goes from right ta left n' tha symbols is freestyled vertically. This is supposed ta reference tha papyrus fontz oldschool n' antique look. Dude also refers ta his dirty ass as "Ore-Sama" (俺様) which is da most thugged-out arrogant thang a thug could call theyselves.
