#these Papyrus facts are really what tie this crazy theory together

[forgettable-au]

You said that one day in Sans’ eyes, papyrus just started acting different. So what extent about Gaster go before he became Papyrus? Is it just personality, or does he have any other memories, and how does what he knew before Papyrus was Papyrus format in his brain for it to make sense?

Papyrus does not remember anything about ever being Wingdings, for him it's like an overly complicated amnesia.

He definitely has a feeling of something not being quite right but there's nothing but emptiness.

Back when it all started that was all there was, an empty shell. Core parts of his personality still remained, but nothing more.

Papyrus' own personality developed around that actually, he feels forgettable and lonely, but mostly empty, that's why he tries so hard to make an impact in the world and make friends, look for something to defines him.

Papyrus is this and Papyrus is that, people would know who he is! Then obviously he would know who he is!

He could be a royal guard, undyne's friend, a body guard, a king.

He's looking to be something that people would like, the only reason he's so obsessed with spaghetti is because he makes spaghetti with undyne, so he made it his mission to know EVRYTHING about pasta to be closer to undyne, to have a friend but mostly to have a chance at joining the royal guard. Papyrus "A member of the royal guard!" Everyone likes the royal guard.

He's desperately looking for things to fill that emptiness.

The thing is he does have his own things that he likes and is good at and are a part of him, he is very artistic, he like making puns (not the one's sans makes), and he likes making things! Like puzzles!! (Also machines, that bridge, his snowman). He definitely reads a lot and knows a lot of stuff, but he pretends that he doesn't and lies and doesn't want to be associated with labs, or hotland or the core.

That was a lot, but basically, to the core Wingdings and Papyrus are very similar, but they both drift in very different almost opposite directions, according to their experiences and some other stuff.

Papyrus tries very hard to be a good, kind and positive person even if he has to lie to himself and others.

Wingdings, I really need to start this comics so you can see.
