[ Much like earlier, when Koltira was waiting to hear Papyrus' agony...
Take care of yourself.
That was what Papyrus was waiting to hear. Proof that Koltira was still there, still capable of listening and hearing him. Not that he didn't already know, and not that he doubted the other for a second, but this was just the reassurance he needed. Even through the pain in his hand, Papyrus smiled wide, cheered on by the fact he hadn't completely lost the other. But as he opens his mouth to continue, Koltira begins to run into the crowd. ]
Ah!! Koltira, wait!
[ Shaking off his surprise, the skeleton begins to run after the other, his armor heavy and lacking flexibility. Surely, he could run better than this without the armor... But it wouldn't be so easy to shed in a time like this, and already Koltira was disappearing from his sight fast. ]
Wait!! I can't- keep up-
[ But that was what the other had planned, wasn't it? Maybe if he hadn't backed away so much, maybe he would have been able to catch the elf before he was too far away...
But he was gone now. Out of sight, and nowhere to be found.
Papyrus spends the next two hours searching the human side of town for a sign of Koltira, but as luck would have it, he'll only find signs of where the other had already been and left, and the words of frightened townspeople who witnessed the destruction and violence firsthand. ]
