How creepy was this?
At the entrance of a dark, sparkling cavern sat a short skeleton, bored out of his mind and on the verge of sleeping. Why did he have sentry duty in Waterfall, anyway?
Probably because his brother thought a human might come through the portal that sat directly in front of him.
Looking into an alternate universe always creeped him out more than a bit- this is why he hated this post so much. Monsters from this 'AU' had already come through the portal, joining him and his friends in their on world. He had always assumed that none of the other barriers were broken, that the monsters were feeling cramped in their own universes, so they came over to his. Every time he saw someone that looked like him, he couldn't help the shiver that shot up his spine. Sure, they wound up being cool, acting freakishly similar to himself or some others, depending on their universe, but the mere fact that this was him was odd enough.
Closing his sockets for a moment, head resting on his crossed arms, Sans let his tiredness kick in and he dozed off, falling asleep just as someone stepped out of the portal before him without his knowledge.

The door to the bar creaked open, allowing the now-full girl to walk out into the brisk, snowy wind. Tempo had always liked Snowdin, ever since she fell down here, but the visitors the small town had been housing for a while was a bit much. There were so many others that looked and acted like her friends- heck, they even looked and acted like herself! Laughing to herself, the albino girl walked off, away from Grillby's and back to her home, which was located in the northern part of the town. Small puffs of air appeared in front of her face with each breath she took, and the crunching sound beneath her feet soothed whatever nerves she felt.
Past a group of Papyruses, Tempo walked, careful not to make eye contact. She hadn't really communicated with many of the other-universe monsters, and she kept telling herself that she would soon, but how to approach them? A while back, she had started a conversation with a lab coat-wearing Sans, but he went off on some science tangent, so she had politely excused herself as soon as she could and left. Ever since, she had been pretty nervous.
Should she try to talk to one today?
Fishing in her pocket, she pulled her house keys out and was about to unlock the front door when she felt a tug at her dress. Turning around to the source, Tempo resisted the urge to squeak when she came across a much-younger-than-usual Papyrus, scarf nearly covering the bottom half of his face. He must've come from the group she had passed, Tempo thought, kneeling down in front of him and patting his head. "Hey there, little guy! You need something?"
"I wanted to know if you wanted to play with me," he says in the usual loud voice. Tempo's not quite sure what she expected. Pointing back to the group, Papyrus continues. "They won't, 'cuz he's a lazybones like my brother, he thinks he's 'too cool for me,' and he's scary!" He points to the three different Papyruses as he speaks. "And you looked so nice and fun!"
The smile on Tempo's face grew wider as she looked back to the young incarnation of her friend, once again patting her head. She couldn't help but wonder what alternate universes these Papyruses had come from, but she didn't ask. "You know what? Sure, I'll play with you!" Standing up again, she took little Papyrus's gloved hand. "What do you want to play?"
Papyrus led her back to the southern part of Snowdin, toward the group. "I have a puzzle! Would you like to try it out?"
Tempo couldn't stop the snicker that escaped her lips. She needed to find her Papyrus and introduce him to this one. He'd love it, and she's pretty sure this one would like meeting his older self, too. "Of course! Sounds like fun!"
Figures. The puzzle was a simple junior jumble. She didn't want to let him down, though, so Tempo sat down next to Papyrus on the cold snow she was so used to, taking his offered pencil and beginning the puzzle, asking her new friend for help as she worked. Many others passed them by, including those from different AUs, but she paid them no mind.
