UnderFell was known to have the most crime masters in the monster country receive valid respect and dominance, but Papyrus's popularity dream came true as he stayed in the lab over time. He was transferred to a different part of the lab to the hospital portion for his stay. The video recorded that day because viral on the Fell UnderNet, and millions of monsters begun to question on how much he is worth to be granted such power of emotions. Because of that tear attack, they saw the opportunity to drop down every so often and see an idol beside their guardsmen and robot rockstar. The word got out and a title of "Tale Soldier Faces Fearful Knight with Tears of Shields" spreads around across newspapers and ads around the undergrounds. Members from all around try to barge into the lab and see this mysterious new guard out of his armor, but Betta and Edge only block the way. Teens and adults found it the most deep as aware of how much power it contained inside. They had thoughts of what would've happened if he didn't use any tears and the rain of bones shattered the ground in two. Or worse, what would've happened if he didn't have control over such power? He's taught them to cry since then and it felt really weird, but sanitary before a fight for friends.
As for Papyrus, however, it was never the way he expected to get famous, or even be famous for THAT specific reason. His intentions were to never hurt anyone or beat a strong woman such as Betta, but she kept going at him with a bunch of courage and anime listings while Al gave some doses of healing she learned for herself instead of slow druggy ones. He grew closer to her just like the Undyne from the beginning of his first friendship, but his soul remembers the day he lost her and then had no one else to call a true best friend. Trusting is now a big wall he tries to keep up and letting others view it too is hard. Edge has been on the softer side too and he hates to admit it in front of others. Whenever he had to go someplace, he had a conscious that Papyrus's ex bestie and brother would barge in to try and convince their angel to come home. No way is Edge letting that happen again after that bruise was found.
He pushed Papyrus around by wheelchair if he had to leave from the laboratory. It's like he became the second Undyne, or Sans to Papyrus, and Betta like the older sister he never had. The older sibling who lost to alcohol and made his baby brother pay the price. Al was on the same side in trying not to accidentally experiment on the healing skeleton, he was too innocent and pure to be one of them on her list. Instead, to gain some trust and respect, she showed some anime Papyrus never knew, but as she fears, she kept it pure. Before lights out, Papyrus (Cinnamon/Cream/Puff), Betta and Al would all be together in the dark with the TV lighting the room with anime action and some romances Papyrus found similar to those back home.
The older sister figure of a bold fish and the crazy nerd that's cool under pressure right beside him. And then add an overprotective other version of himself and his older brother to the mix. What a family! Papyrus would sometimes think and wonder if this was played or a big joke. Watching the other Fell monsters around him lately made him think twice about the treatment he's getting. The bright young skeleton's broken soul and tears were in hell throughout the day as to not stir up rumors of his self-fatal routine.
However, still one monster he hasn't met yet....and he questions it before he could cry himself to sleep when left alone.
Since the day of the fight and adopting was made, Betta, Edge, and Al tried to find some things that may bring some comfort and warmth towards Papyrus's stay. They bought items such as clothes, anime, mangas, books, small stuffies that they guessed he had back in the other AU, coats, scarves, pillows, blankets, a Fell communicator, and even as a surprise: a fresh set of armor in the closest size to Papyrus they could find. Betta made sure to find it for when he's ready. Of course, they gathered everything in the quickest time and made it fun by going out at the latest hour by the Shop for nobody to chase them for answers on why they carry things for "pacifist dorks" with them across the street to another place. They understood and assumed Cinnamon went through some horrible things with his brother for a hit that bad to be left behind.
