"There you are!" Papyrus calls it over, pausing seeing them better "I didn't think it'd be that big on you...hmm...Oh! The sauce!" he says, refocusing on the said sauce.

"Let's give Paps some room to work with," Sans says, walking over to the couch with the creature. "Plus, it's more comfortable here." As the both of them sit down, Sans decides to ask the kid "So.... where are you from exactly?"

In response, it pulls out a map, showing him the name at the top.

"Hallownest... Huh, never heard of it before. Do you know how to get back there?" it pauses for a moment before shaking its head "...Do you know where here is?" it shakes its head again. "Huh...wait, do you know how you even got here?" it wobbles back and forth, chirping. "...not sure what that means, kiddo." Sans pauses for a few seconds before continuing "Anyways, it sounds like you're more or less stuck around here for a while since you don't know how to get back to Hallownest. If you would like, you can stay here with me and Paps. We have the room, and he would certainly be happy to have someone other than my lazybones around."

The creature looks around a little bit before nodding to Sans, "Great, now for the first order of business. We're going to need a way to communicate" he hands it a book on Monster Sign Language "MoS. Me and my bro know it well, and most of our buddies have a working understanding of it as well. What do you think?" It takes the book, looking at it "We'll go through it after dinner." Sans says, looking over and seeing Papyrus putting the spaghetti and sauce in serving bowls.

"Dinners ready! Please get washed up to eat!" Pap says, and Sans gets up getting sat down at the dining room table. The creature follows suit, and the three eat in relative silence.

It's nighttime now, and Sans and Papyrus are both asleep. The creature looks at them both sleeping on the couch before going outside and looking around the forest, taking out a nail of sorts. It seems to be a handle with intricate carvings and symbols over it. It's distinctly missing a blade, which doesn't seem to bother them. The creature focuses, holding their nail up as a glowing blade forms, then an intricate ring around said blade from the bottom of the blade at the handle to the tip of the blade. The blade suddenly vanishes, the ring vanishing with it. The creature stands there, silent and still for several moments. After this, it walks around for a bit, stopping and refocusing. The glowing blade reforms and rather than holding this up, it stabs the glowing blade into the ground. It glows and leaves a faint small glowing circle behind. The creature steps a few feet to the side, holding the nail up. In a flash of light, the creature is teleported above the glowing circle. This magic seems to be of an ancient origin, connected to dreams. The 'weapon' is known as a Dreamnail, and the creature a vessel. They wait and look around the forest before going back inside the house. It looks at the brothers, reaching over to them before pausing and sitting against the couch, sleeping there.
