[That is a whole face journey Sans goes on, and - while he tries not to show it - Papyrus goes on one of... pride? for his brother? and these signs of growth? He rallies by returning to a classic topic, repeating how great he is.]
Of course it'll work out!! That's why I'm here. Greg the universe basically said so.
[Greg's comments and compliments weren't exactly along those lines, but getting caught up in the details is exactly the kind of inertia drag that drops skeletons into stagnation that he wants to avoid. Better to focus on the heart of the matter and let the rest sort itself out! See, just look at that almost-optimism from Sans, just from all the supportive Papyrus motivation he's gotten this day.
...And all the independent character growth, in the time he was gathering all these presents. Papyrus shifts how he's cradling the bunch of them again, this time studying the book keychain.]
