It's like the fight is just draining out of him. Papyrus shifts over a little more, briefly hugging Sans one-armed, before rubbing at his back again. With any luck, it helps.
"Don't I? It seems you are sad, and scared for your friend, and even more scared... that it all seems impossible." He huffs an indignant breath. "I know what that's like!"
A couple months of hardly any real news about Sans' condition. Only that bad dream, and the brief meeting at the Fairy Trial... Oh, Papyrus knows what it's like to worry for someone, with no concrete idea how to help them. Carefully not thinking about it, and focusing on hope for the future, was his single biggest thing keeping him going through it.
...Especially since, if it were anyone else captured, Papyrus would have been running to Sans for advice and help. Not having that perspective... Not having the security of his older brother guarding his back... Well, it's been stressful.
