The life of the skelebros

Red Syrup?

Grillby let the skeletons stay on the couch and went to open his restaurant. He had lost track of time and was opening shop a little later than usual but that was to be expected with everything that had happened. Not many people show up in the morning anyway so it was barely a loss.

As he was wiping down the counters he could hear feet running across the floor. Suddenly Papyrus burst out the door to the living room, smiling when he saw Grillby.

"OH THERE YOU ARE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? CAN I HELP?" Papyrus asked, running up to him

"This is my restaurant that I run to earn gold. Where's Sans?" Grillby asked right before a thump near the door answered his question.

"oww...slow down paps. i can't keep up with ya" Sans said walking out of the door, rubbing his forehead.

"BUT I COULDN'T FIND MR. GRILLBY. WHAT IF HE NEEDS MY HELP!" Papyrus said. "SO DO YOU NEED MY HELP MR. GRILLBY?"

"Hmm you could help me pass around the food when customers start showing up." Grillby said. "Also, Papyrus, you don't need to call me Mr. Grillby. Just Grillby is fine."

"OH OK GRILLBY. SEE SANS, HE NEEDS HELP AND I'M VERY GOOD AT HELPING!"

"sure bro, just stop runnin' around. you might trip 'n fall." Sans said, coming over to stand next to him

"IM NOT GOING TO TRIP AND FALL. YOOOU STOP WORRYING ABOUT ME AND START WORRYING ABOUT YOURSELF! I'M NOT THE ONE WHO RAN INTO THE WALL." Papyrus stated with his hands on his hips.

"i-...hey! i can't see outta my right eye 'n you left me behind."

"WELL KEEP UP NEXT TIME...WAIT SANS! NOW I'M GOING TO PURPOSELY LEAVE YOU BEHIND! GRILLBY, TELL HIM TO STOP WITH THESE HORRIBLE JOKES"

"I don't know. I think he has a good eye for these" Grillby said, smiling and Sans started chuckling.

"NYOOO DON'T ENCOURAGE HIM!" Papyrus whined.

The restaurant door opened at the same time and their first customers came in.

Two dogs entered the restaurant, holding hands. One was female and the other was male and they stood on their two hind feet. They had shiny metal armor on and each one had a long ax strapped to their backs.

"Hello Grillby. Who do you have there?" Asked the female dog.

"They don't smell like they're from around here." The male dog said

"Hello Dogaressa and Dogamy. These two are Sans and Papyrus." Grillby pointed to them in turn. "I found them last night out in the snow. Can I get anything for you?"

"Oh that's very sweet of you. Do you need me to check in with the royal guard and search for their family?" Dogaressa answered. Dogamy nodded in agreement.

"They said they don't have a family or a home so I was thinking of taking them in and caring for them myself."

"I see. We don't get many homeless cases especially around Snowdin but if you need any help you can always ask one of the dogs. Us dogs always welcome new family and friends and would be happy to help. About why we came in here...hmm, I would like a burger to go."

"Thank you for the advice. I will be sure to ask if I need any help. Actually, now that you mention it I do need someone who can repair wall and floor damage. It's for my bathroom." Grillby said remembering the state his bathroom is in. "Dogamy would you like anything?"

"Yes, I would like the same thing as my wife. Also, don't worry we can ask around for anyone who can do the repairs after our sentry shift is over." Dogamy replied.
