Chapter 8

Breakfast and Snans

_______________________________

2nd POV

The first thing you had noticed when you woke up the following morning was the smell of pancakes. Your eyes had snapped open at the smell of food, and, before you knew it, you had dressed and was scurrying down the stairs. You passed the living room that was occupied by Sans and Papyrus, both lying on the ground playing with numerous puzzles.

Cute.

You went pass by the boys and glided closer to the source of the smell.

The second thing you had noticed was the presence of Gaster. He never stayed in the morning, so this was new to you. You stepped into the kitchen, and was seen by the scientist.

"Ah, Good morning Y/n. Go have a seat, breakfast is almost ready!" You smiled at the sight of the scientist dressed in his usual black turtleneck, but this time a white apron was over the shirt. He held a spatula in his hand and a sizzling pan in the other, flipping fluffy looking pancakes.

Oh lord, I can't remember the last time I've had a decent breakfast..

You drooled at the food and nodded vigorously, and skipped back into the living room with the skelebros.

You flopped down into the couch and heard jingling of coins. Raising a brow, you stuck a hand into the cushions. Taking your limb back you held shiny, golden coins. You looked at them confused, wondering why such precious metals would just be in a couch. You looked at Sans who seemed to notice your confusion.

"Oh, that's Gold, though we just call it G. It's the currency we use here." You grin at the word he used, but looked back at the coins in your hand.

Currency, huh? Humans would kill over this on the surface.

You set the coins on the cushion next to you and slide down onto the floor with Papyrus and Sans. Papyrus held the familiar Rubik's cube in his tiny bony hands, fiddling with the block. Sans was doing a crossword puzzle, and was looking very confused. Then he lit up and filled in the word he was missing. You smiled and picked up a jigsaw puzzle and started to piece together the hidden picture.

When you got the outer ring down, you heard taps behind you. You look over and see Gaster using his magic hands once again to hold the plates and syrup. He was smiling at the three of you.

"Breakfast is served!" He said, grinning. You hopped up, careful of your puzzle, and grabbed a plate that was being held out. Two pancakes were stacked on top of each other, a square of butter lied on top. Your lick your lips in excitement and sit down on the couch, ignoring the jingles this time. Gaster sat down beside you and handed Sans his plate, and Papyrus a plate with cut up pieces of pancake and a bottle of juice. You poured a generous amount of syrup onto your stack and dug in, moaning at the taste.

Holy hell, what did he do to this? It's like it's dissolving in my mouth-!

Gaster chuckled beside you, as if he had heard your thoughts.

"Food down here is different. Instead of it being solid, we monsters use magic to make it, so it doesn't have a form. Ingredients are used, but it turns into something like this when magic is used." You stared in awe, and continued eating, happy at the heavenly taste.

"And don't worry, you still get your nutrients, even if it doesn't go dow-"

"Dad is a great cook, right?! I'd say his pancakes are on par with Mrs. Toriel's pie!" Sans exclaimed. Gaster shook his skull, denying the statement.
