[ME, ME, I WANT A SKELETON FRIEND...]

[spaghettimonster]

HELLO, I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULDN'T SPARE A MOMENT OF YOUR TIME.
I'M LOOKING FOR OPINIONS ON...
A PARTICULARLY HANDSOME MONSTER'S SELFIES.
HOW WOULD YOU RATE THIS??

[It's a picture of an inexplicably muscular skeleton, dressed in t-shirt and shorts and sunglasses. On further inspection, the muscles are flat, grayscale printed cutouts from some body builder, and have been taped to an actual skeleton.]

PLEASE GET BACK TO ME PROMPTLY!

[RISKY CLICK OF THE DAY... but yeah it takes her several minutes to figure out what she's looking at. kind of. the further inspection lasts a while.]

is that a real skeleton?

[spaghettimonster]

[That's fine, it gives him time to draft another of these extremely likable and well-received greetings.]

YES? THAT'S A VERY REAL SKELETON.
I'M NOT SURE HOW THAT'S IN QUESTION, I SAID IT'S A SELFIE...
OH! I GET IT.
YOU'RE SAYING... IT'S UNREAL HOW HANDSOME HE IS?!

[fuhgottaboutit]

[Okay okay okay. There are some layers to this situation. Let's take a moment to dive in, really unpack what's going on here.

A talking, muscular skeleton sent her a selfie and wants her to say he's handsome.

That makes so little sense... that it could only be a product of her own unconscious mind.]

oh! i understand now
this is a dream!

[spaghettimonster]

[His muscles are certainly the product of someone's mind, but the rest of it...

Well, he's insisting on interpreting this in the best possible light as long as possible.]

WHAT'S THAT?
YOU THINK MY SELFIE IS... DREAMY??
WOW, WHAT A COMPLIMENT! THANK YOU!

[fuhgottaboutit]

your welcome!

[She still isn't sure what she's complimenting, but... if it made him happy, that's probably good! She'd rather dream about a friendly buff skeleton than an angry buff skeleton. You know, given the choice.]

i didnt even know skeletons could get muscles

[.... Oh my god. She has just had the most mind-blowing realization.]

of course!!
that was the true power of muscle milk!

[spaghettimonster]

[It seems like he should correct her eventually, since the muscles are the only part she seems to be really acknowledging... But this new comment blows his shades away.]

HUH?
MUSCLE MILK??

ARE YOU TELLING ME...
THERE WAS A SPECIAL KIND OF MILK I COULD DRINK, TO GIVE ME -REAL- BIG MUSCLES??!?
WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME THAT!

[fuhgottaboutit]

yeah! cuz milk is good for ur bones right
so muscle milk is good for bone muscles!

[spaghettimonster]

MILK IS GOOD FOR BONES, IT'S TRUE!
YOUR LOGIC IS IMPECCABLE AND UNDENIABLE.
WOW!
I CAN'T BELIEVE I WENT ALL THESE YEARS WITHOUT DRINKING MUSCLE MILK...
THAT CHANGES TODAY!
I NEED TO GO SHOPPING.
THEN I'LL REALLY BE THE COOLEST AND MOST MUSCULAR SKELETON AROUND.

[fuhgottaboutit]

thats the spirit!
dont give up, skeleton!

[spaghettimonster]

I DON'T EVEN KNOW THE MEANING OF THE PHRASE.
PAPYRUS: HE NEVER GIVES UP!
AND I'LL BE SURE TO SEND YOU ADDITIONAL THANKS, WHEN I'M ALL MUSCULAR, RANDOM STRANGER.
