SO YOU'RE IN A NEW WORLD, LOOKING AT A WATCH,
WONDERING WHAT TO DO WITH YOURSELF...
WELL!
THE FIRST THING YOU CAN DO, IS READ THIS WELCOME MESSAGE:
HELLO!!!
I HEARD THERE'S MORE PEOPLE POPPING OUT OF MIRRORS TODAY,
AND MAYBE THAT MEANS YOU.
IF IT DOES, WELCOME TO AEFENGLOM!
A HOME AWAY FROM HOME.
YOU MIGHT HEAR SOME DOOM AND GLOOM FROM PEOPLE, ABOUT THE CWYLD, AND THE FULL MOONS...
BUT, ONLY SOME OF IT IS TRUE.
AND THOSE PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THINGS LIKE THE COLOR OF THE SKY, SO WHAT DO THEY KNOW ANYWAY.
THERE'S OTHER PEOPLE PRETTY MUCH CONSTANTLY WORKING HARD TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE AND HAPPY.
SO, DO YOUR BEST NOT TO WORRY TOO MUCH, AND LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE!
IF YOU'RE A WITCH, YOU'LL BE ABLE TO DO ALL KINDS OF MAGIC.
AND IF YOU'RE A MONSTER, THE BRIGHT SIDE OF THE MOONS WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT TO YOU!
AND I GUESS SOME MONSTERS HAVE A KIND OF MAGIC TOO? BUT IT'S NOT -MAGIC- MAGIC.
WHATEVER!!
THE IMPORTANT THING IS, YOU NOW FEEL WELCOMED.
YOU'RE WELCOME!
[If anyone doesn't want to wade through the capslock, let me know and I can drop it when tagging you.]

NO??? I DON'T... REMEMBER ANYTHING OF THE SORT.
[Should he? Come to think of it, when he started telling his brother about where he was and what he was doing when the mirror grabbed him... Sans had seemed a little cagey, cagier than usual. Had... had Sans remembered this other future, too??]
OH NO! I REMEMBER THE KING GOING MISSING, AFTER THE HUMAN... LEFT.
AND IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE THE QUEEN HANGING OUT WITH HIM ANYWAY.
BUT!
I LIKE THIS FUTURE YOU'RE DESCRIBING.
ME, YOU, AND UNDYNE, IN THE GARBAGE DUMP...
GETTING ME A JOB WHERE I HELP YOU? INCREDIBLE.
ARE YOU SURE IT ALREADY REALLY HAPPENED, AND WASN'T A BRILLIANT IDEA OF A DREAM?
no subject
[Or did it? Maybe she's been hallucinating this entire time and she's really still in the basement of her lab and nothing has changed at all? She pinches herself, then gently slaps the side of her face, but she doesn't wake.]
i'm definitely NOT dreaming! and i know the king was there, so he couldn't have gone missing...
[Papyrus wouldn't be the type to try and mess with her, so he's got to be telling the truth, even if his story doesn't match up at all with hers. So the most obvious explanation is that they're both true...]
ok
bear with me here
but what if this place isn't the only parallel world? what if there's like... TWO versions of our world and we're each from one of them?
no subject
STRAIGHT OUT OF A COMIC BOOK!
AND YET...
[He can't deny the appeal of the idea, in that it would mean neither of them was lying or mistaken. It could be a little lonely, still being the only one from his world... but, hopefully, his world is back through the mirror, to be available... someday. And how much better to be lonely with company than lonely alone!]
ALL THE MIRRORBOUND SEEM TO COME FROM DIFFERENT WORLDS, WITH DIFFERENT MAGIC,
BUT LOTS OF THEM ARE NAMED EARTH, WITH FIGURES LIKE SHAKESPEARE, BUT NO MONSTERS.
IF SOMEBODY LIKE AN AUTHOR CAN BE COMMON TO MULTIPLE WORLDS...
WHY NOT US??
[They've each got to be at least as famous, in their own time, as that playwright was, right?]
