Lots of people headcanon Monsters as having a heightened sense of smell.
Well, what if skeleton Monsters are the opposite?
What if skeleton Monsters only have a nasal cavity, but no olfactory organs to process smells with? What if they can't smell anything?
And since smell is so intrinsically tied to taste, what of they have little to no sense of taste as a result?
What if Sans drinks ketchup because it gets a reaction, not because he can taste it?
What if Papyrus' genuinely doesn't know his cooking is awful because he can't taste it?
What if his favourite meal is dinosaur egg oatmeal, not because of the taste, but because of the whimsy and/or nostalgia?
What if Sans sells water sausages because they look like hotdogs, and he's got no reference for what a hotdog should taste like anyway? (The Underground somehow has burger patties and pastry, but can't produce sausages?)
What if Papyrus dislikes grease, not for the way it tastes, but because he believes it'll make him 'break out'?
What if Sans doesn't hang out at Grillby's for the food, but for the company?
i (finally) started playing undertale, and it’s been really enjoyable!! love all the little quirks in the script; i love when games do that, it makes you want to explore/talk to everyone to get the most out of it, haha. and i love drawing monsters so i like how most of the characters are non-human
it reminds me a lot of earthbound, and how i still haven’t finished that game..one day…
Me when im infested with unidentified parasitic worms and you find me in the basement with the boys and when you run away i follow you to your house, and when you run away again i break into your institute and flood it with the unidentified paracidic worms for shits and giggles :3
just had a terrifying thought of the walter white in salmon run video being lost to me forever so im putting it here in all my tags so i can find it when i need it most
