Papyrus/In Battle

Attacks

 * If the protagonist ACTs to Papyrus, his bone attacks slowly scroll across the bottom, but are not high enough to hit the protagonist. Papyrus will continue using this attack until Spare or Fight is chosen.
 * Papyrus' first attack is the "blue attack" that Sans warned the protagonist about, causing blue-colored bones to scroll across the Bullet Board. After all the blue-colored bones have passed, however, Papyrus turns the protagonist's soul blue for the rest of the battle, stating that that's his attack, revealing Sans was technically misleading the protagonist about the nature of the attack.
 * Papyrus continues the battle by attacking the protagonist with series after series of bones scrolling along the bottom of the square, which can be dodged by jumping. His blue-colored bones are used far less often.
 * Papyrus eventually prepares a special attack; however, a dog steals it, and he continues the battle with an "absolutely normal attack", albeit more difficult. The attack includes appearances by the dog, bones saying "Cool" and "Dude", a bone on a skateboard, and a large crowd of bones that can be jumped over far higher than normal use of the blue soul. After surviving this attack, Papyrus decides to spare the protagonist.

Strategy

 * Surviving all of Papyrus' attacks and finally sparing him will end the battle.
 * Being taken down to 1 HP will result in him ending the battle prematurely. If the protagonist loses to him three times, Papyrus grows tired of capturing them and offers them to skip his battle and progress.
 * In the Genocide Route, Papyrus instantly offers to spare the protagonist. However, a single hit will kill Papyrus.
