[sans is pretty sure undyne wouldn't let all that go so easily but man!! is he gonna count that as a victory anyway!!!!]
i was kinda countin' on you for that. what with. magic ghost knowledge or whatever. i got a couple of ideas, but nothing concrete. like... the game's been all mental? ugh, that sounds off. gimme a sec.
[he gets up to rummage through his drawers for a very specific pile of papers. he brings it back-- to undyne it's all written in gibberish wingdings, but he's going to be translating on paper next to it. the first thing he's writing down is the list of different incentives/motives.]
when i say mental, i mean it's all been mindgames so far. whether them trying to mess with people's feelings literally or just the general kinda emotional manipulation you'd expect out of a game like this. that first one worried me at first... [he taps "time perception" on the paper] 'till i realized they weren't really messin' with time, just our perception of it. it's mental. it's not real. i dunno if anything they've shown or promised was. ...except maybe the hostages.
[that one he adds because. undyne did die for prussie, for some godforsaken reason. unless something like her ghost is confirmed he's still skeptical!!!]
i think most of the people left are also calling bull on the powers that be, so that's not exactly big news, but my point is... they're really trying to make us kill each other. except in two cases, they haven't done anything physical to any of us-- and those seemed to be against "the rules". what i think is that the game isn't us playing against them, it's them playing against each other or... something else. for... something.
[he's writing down a bunch of question marks alongside this now. thanks sans. completely helpful. you're great.]
miata doesn't say anything about the "sins" from what i've seen, so that's kind of a dead end.
[he pauses there as if thinking it over before shrugging]
going into wild hypothesis time, my last idea's that this town? might not be real. it probably was, at some point, but something obviously happened here. the "abyss" is just the magic letting it happen. the murders committed are bringing it back, with some ghosts along for the ride. so probably murdering gives... something to the town?
[at this point his paper is full of USELESS SCRIBBLES as he spoke his thoughts aloud. wow sans way to write wingdings to translate more wingdings. super useful. everyone is grateful you're here. he looks annoyed for .2 and just crosses it out]
tl;dr nothing i come up with is useful in any way to ending this, shocking exactly no one ever.
[it's his usual self-deprecating tone, because at this point sans's failures are a joke to himself. a hilarious inside joke where nothing he does matters!!! ha ha ha ha!!! SO FUNNY]
