 * We all know how Papyrus dies, right? Decapitation. You know how every other character dies? Slashed. Specifically across the chest. Pretty much. The question is: Why is his fatal blow decapitation? Every other hit on him is like, well, every other hit. Except the fatal one. Maybe only cutting off his head can kill him. Bazinga, that's my point right there. Only decapitation can kill him and he's the only character you decapitate. Now, every seen zombie films? Only cutting off their head can kill them. Now you might be like "But Sans isn't decapitated! He's just slashed!" Well, the blow doesn't cut Sans at all. His ribcage isn't split. That's because Sans only has one health point. He's too weak, i guess. The blow kind of violently sends a shock through his body, rupturing everything. A massive blow for a lot of HP on something with 1 HP. That just destroyed Sans. in fact, it may have cracked the back off his skull as his spine smacked into it. But this isn't Sans, this is Papyrus. He's the only character where parts of him turns to dust separately. His body just disintegrates. it's nothing without its head. Papyrus keeps on talking without his body. Maybe because he's powerful enough, or some revenant-zombie-skeleton thing. But the point is, Only decapitation can kill Papyrus, it seems, like film zombies, which means he's quite powerful. NYEH HEH HEH! (By the way, you'd have to be a complete irl psychopath to kill that innocent autistic skeleton.)

in many movies, zombies can die without needing to be shot in the head.
