(That was a kind of joke that might get a snort from Eddie if he weren't still trying to Deal With Things. Sans has hope yet though. Thing is Eddie has dealt with monsters before and even the charming ones weren't ever this nice.
It wasn't even like. That overbearing niceness either. It was just normal nice. The kind of nice a lot of adults tried to aim for but failed miserably on.
A skeleton. That could talk. Okay. Well, he was on a space station so maybe he had to start expecting weirder things. Shiro had said there nonhumans.
In a very small voice, Eddie says a simple:)
I don't think you're a monster.
(Adults were the truest monster he knew. Other creatures too. But this guy?
No way. He didn't have that looming god-like presence of Eddie's mother, didn't have that cruel twist of a smile Mr. Keene had when he dangled his information over Eddie's head. No. That was being a monster.)
video; i saw absolutely nothing
