[Papyrus nods along; he's seen another skeleton guy, too. If there were more skeletons around, it would be awkward, but if there's only two, comparisons feel pretty inevitable. But if it's the one he's thinking of, well, they look so different! Even more different than many humans from each other.
Then he realizes he's been abandoned by his tracking friend, who's sprawling against the human.]
...Hey, this is just for a minute, right? You didn't forget what we're doing?
[The dog tilts its head just enough to wink at Papyrus, then lets out a soft contented yip, tail wagging against the furniture as the belly rub commences - thoroughly taking advantage of Shinji's good nature. Sure, Papyrus did okay petting its head, but sniffing things out is hard work. The kind of hard work that needs treats and belly rubs to continue.
A little sense of that idea trickles across the familiar bond, and Papyrus rubs at his own face.]
