Rock Paper Scissors - Tumblr Posts
Aight, I want to showcase a part of one of the bonuses of the Mediaverse fic. It's called 'Shiv VS The Siz' and it's about Shiver and Scissors getting into a fight to see who is cooler. Either way both of them are considered to be silly guys in this-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With that, Scissors stood up on the couch, having enough of Shiver and how cool she makes herself to be. "That's it...you've pulled my last nerve, woman! I challenge you...to a 'Cool-Off'!"
Shiver then looked puzzled on what a 'Cool-Off' even was. She just laughed at the supposed made up challenge. "A 'Cool-Off'? Please, don't be ridiculous. I haven't heard of such a thing."
Scissors then explained to Shiver about what a Cool-Off was; "Hmph...For centuries, when two super cool people need to decide who the coolest one of them was, they participate in various competitive and cool activities to determine that factor, also known as a 'Cool-Off'. The winner of the Cool-Off is known as one of the coolest people ever, and the loser has to admit that they're not worthy of coolness."
...Shiver smirked, thinking that this competition would be an easy win for her. "So let's say the obvious outcome of this is me winning. You shut up about me saying cool stuff about myself and say you're eternally uncool?"
"...I guess. But the REAL obvious outcome of this is ME winning, and YOU losing!" Scissors went closer to where Shiver was, causing the two to be face to face. "So, do you accept?"
Shiver had a mischievous smile. "Well, I'm certainly not one to turn down a good challenge. Bring it on!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That's a bit of what I have so far, but it still needs work. I'm focusing on working on this and Part 4 right now. (This little part is just Shiver and Scissors getting into a dumb little competition XD)
Paper, you know that Scissors is already going to Hell.
I want to redraw this it's so funny

Lets make Slice Daddy a trend or smth XD
Is.. is he allowed to say that last one?
....i literally just dreamt about a Rock Paper Scissors episode concept last night.
Basically, Rock tries to prove to his dad that he can still be manly or else he'll ban him from modeling forever. With Paper and Scissors' help he only fails more. Eventually that ban does happen but the trio gets one last idea.
That's all I can remember.
Shiv vs The Siz
Finally, after going through what's considered development hell at this point, the first Mediaverse bonus is here at long last! This little story takes place right after Act I of "The Objective of the Mission" left off, and I think it's a good one. Also here's a fun challenge; count how many times the word 'cool' or a word relating to it is said! Trust me, it's a lot.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shortly after Act I took place, Shiver and Frye formally introduced themselves to Paper and Scissors, but while Frye and Paper were doing who knows what, Shiver and Scissors were getting into a pretty heated argument.
“You really wanna be this way towards me?”, Shiver said while glaring daggers at Scissors.
“Uh, why wouldn’t I be, lamewad?”, Scissors said, glaring right back.
Shiver gave Scissors a look of disgust. “‘Lamewad?’ Did you even listen to what I told you? I clearly do much greater things than you ever will.”
Scissors rolled his eyes. “Oh, yeah. EVERYONE here is a master at taming sharks and got super famous while only in HIGH SCHOOL. Even someone like ME would know you’re lying.”
…Shiver smirked. “....But not everyone wears shades just so nobody can see them cry. Come on, people could STILL see the tears running down your cheeks.”
With that, Scissors stood up on the couch, having enough of Shiver and how cool she makes herself to be. "That's it...you've pulled my last nerve, woman! I challenge you...to a 'Cool-Off'!"
Shiver then looked puzzled on what a 'Cool-Off' even was. She just laughed at the supposed made up challenge. "A 'Cool-Off'? Please, don't be ridiculous. I haven't heard of such a thing."
Scissors then explained to Shiver about what a Cool-Off was; "Hmph...For centuries, when two super cool people needed to decide who the coolest one of them was, they participated in various competitive and cool activities to determine that factor, also known as a 'Cool-Off'. The winner of the Cool-Off is known as one of the coolest people ever, and the loser has to admit that they're not worthy of coolness."
...Shiver smirked, thinking that this competition would be an easy win for them. "So let's say the obvious outcome of this is me winning. You shut up about me saying cool stuff about myself and say you're eternally uncool?"
"...I guess. But the REAL obvious outcome of this is ME winning, and YOU losing!" Scissors went closer to where Shiver was, causing the two to be face to face. "So, do you accept?"
Shiver had a mischievous smile. "Well, I'm certainly not one to turn down a good challenge. Bring it on!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two were outside in the park, preparing for the first round of the Cool-Off.
“Okay, what’s the first part of this little contest?”, Shiver said, completely confident of their soon-to-be victory.
“The first challenge is to see if other people think of you as a cool individual like I am. Like so…” Scissors leaned on a nearby tree looking as cool as he could…but nobody even glanced at him.
“Hmph. Oh well. Everybody must be too intimidated by my coolness. I usually do stuff like this, so try not to feel too discouraged if you never got-” Scissors turned to Shiver and stopped mid-sentence in shock.
An entire crowd of people surrounds Shiver, admiring how cool she looked, and she didn’t have to stage herself in a pose. She just stood there and waved her fan.
Scissors watched it all in disbelief. “How? WHAT!?”
Shiver turned to Scissors with a smug look on their face. “There you have it. Have I won yet~?”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Next, the two were on a sidewalk in the street.
“Okay…you may have won the first round, but I bet this round’ll be tougher for you!”, Scissors said, confident that he’ll win this time.
Shiver laughed. “I know that this round revolves around who can come up with a cool and quick way to get money. But I'm a bandit! I can just rob a bank right now. Why are we in the middle of the street?”
Scissors walks near a moving car and lets the vehicle lightly graze across his arm then falling on the ground faking an injury. “Ow! My arm or something!”
Cut to a jury where Scissors attempts to sue the car driver who had ‘injured’ him.
“In the case of Scissors vs Car Guy, the court rules in favor of..Scissors.” The judge bangs her gavel.
“Yeah!!” Scissors victoriously jumps up, despite literally being in a full body cast.
“Now comes the time of destroying the harming object” The judge says while the man’s car gets crushed right in front of him.
“Ah! My car!”
Shiver watched it all in disbelief. “WHAT!? You’re not even hurt! I..That’s against the rules, isn't it!?”
Scissors smirked. “Well, the rules don’t say anything about faking lawsuits!”
“You literally just said-...GRRR! This isn’t over!” Shiver hits Scissors on the head with her fan and he falls on the ground, faking yet another injury.
“Ow! My head or something!”
“UGH!”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(As the day went by, Shiver and Scissors competed in various cool activities such as cool posing, cool baton twirling, cool jumping through rings of fire, cool feeding flesh-eating lions, you know, normal cool stuff. The score is tied, and the final trial is doing a cool talent of their own.)
“Okay, Shiver. Our scores are tied, and you’re currently looking at the ultimate winner of all of this. How does it feel?”, Scissors said, eager and confident that he’ll win the whole thing.
Meanwhile, Shiver just stared at him with the smug smirk they usually wore. “Oh, you poor, pathetic, ignorant pair of shears. You thought that your victory would be ensured~?” …Shiver broke out in a fit of dramatic and evil laughter.
Scissors watched her, feeling totally freaked out at this point. “Hey...I know showing fear isn’t cool but...you’re…kinda scaring me to be honest…”
Shiver glared at him menacingly. “First of all, you do notice that you’re right in front of the portal me and my crew came from, right?”
Scissors turned around. “Oh. I actually didn’t notice that.”
Shiver smiled and posed dramatically yet again. I suggest you move out the way…” Shiver then calls out; “Join me, Master Mega!”
Scissors promptly moves out the way of the portal, and not too long after, a giant great white shark with a saddle and rocket boosters dramatically jumps out of it.
Shiver immediately jumps on the shark’s saddle. “Pedal to the Megalodon!”
Scissors nervously stares at the sight. “O-oh…a shark.. W-whatever…sharks can’t move without any water-”
Shiver and Master Mega immediately do extremely cool stunts like zooming around town and doing sick mid-air flips while sliding on items resembling ramps. At one point, Mater Mega shot out blue laser beams out of his mouth! …which caused a lot of destruction throughout the city. After all of that, the octoling and her shark stopped right in front of Scissors.
“And, there it is. That’s my cool talent.” Shiver said while climbing off of Master Mega. “Well…what’s your cool talent? I’m waiting.”
Scissors stood there in shock. “I…I ...don't have one…”, he said, opting to feeling complete disappointment.
Shiver looked surprised, but more confident. “Oh? The ‘cool guy’ doesn’t have a cool talent?”
…Scissors sighed. “If anything, I have ZERO talents! I was just trying to make myself look cool because I thought it would just matter if people think that you're cool! ..But seeing you…and your awesome huge shark…I’ll never be as cool as you… I’ll never be as cool as anyone…” Scissors sadly walks back to his apartment. “You win.. I’ll go home now or whatever..”
Shiver saw Scissors and how discouraged he felt. They couldn’t help but feel a little…no…a lot of sympathy towards him seeing how he basically built a fake personality for himself to seem presentable to other people. They look at him, and couldn’t help but think about how they were like that in a sense in the past. “Scissors…wait.”
Scissors turned around and glared at Shiver. “Ugh. What is it now!?”
Shiver sighed and walked to Scissors. “...I know how you must feel. How you want to make yourself look good to other people…and how you just want to be accepted…I know what that’s like.” The two sit down beside each other. “Right now, you can just look at people… and think that you won’t reach up to anyone’s expectations…but, it won't be like that forever. I mean, if anything, you have a better life than me! You get to chill out all day with two of your best friends and not worry about anything. Me on the other hand, I have to wake up SUPER early to do newscasts for Splatsville, AND I have to go on high-stakes bandit missions to give to the rest of the Splatlands. It’s all rewarding in its own way, but it can be really stressful.”
…The two laugh at Shiver’s words.
“Are you kidding? Your life is AWESOME! You’re super famous and generous, and everyone loves you…Meanwhile, I’ll just be a nobody wasting my time with no job like a bum.” Scissors said, still feeling a little discouraged.
…Shiver places a comforting hand on Scissors’ shoulder. “Well, maybe you won’t be a nobody if you make enough efforts in life. You probably did try once and failed countless times just by hearing your story, no offense.”
Scissors looked at Shiver with a hint of sarcasm. “None taken.”
Shiver went back to being encouraging; “But you always have to fail before you even succeed. And one of these days, everything will work out for you.”
…Scissors smiled. “...Thanks, Shiver.” The two get up from the ground. “I mean…thanks for the talk, but it sucks that you gotta leave..”
Shiver laughed. “Who said I gotta leave so soon? I mean, Master Mage has to, no doubt.”
Master Mega whimpered at Shiver’s words while they glared at the shark. “You heard me. Go back home! Go… “ Master Mega reluctantly flops back in the portal.
Shiver turns her attention back to Scissors. “Besides, I wanna see what else a place like this has to offer. And having a new friend by my side while doing it.”
Scissors smiled happily when Shiver said that he’s considered a friend to her. A single tear of happiness falls from his eye. “Great…say, when we get back inside, you wanna order a pizza and watch stupid TV shows together?”
Shiver smiles at her enemy turned friend. “Hm. Deal.”
The duo walk back to the apartment, honoring the bond that they established through each other.
“Also, side note; that catchphrase ‘Pedal to the Megalodon’...it could use a little work.”
“Oh, shut up."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hope you enjoyed that! This and "Expectations" will be up on AO3 soon! and before anyone that's seen at least TOOTM Act I or my Fryper crackship post from my prev account, THIS ISN'T A SHIP BY ANY MEANS. I don't know why, but I just thought I should say that.
Just a heads up, this is Bonus 2 to the series and it's being worked on next. I've been meaning to get started on it sooner and it was already in a longer development hell but better late then never
WE WON!? WE WON!!!
Rock Paper Scissors is getting a Season 2, and it’ll premiere in 2025!
🪨📄✂️
Okay, preview time again!! This ones for "To Love an Eel Tamer" where Frye and Paper show each other what they can do (Frye is more impressive, obviously/j), and Paper tries to impress her in the process. (While lying. Classic Paper nature.) The context of this bit is that Frye invented a giant robot which, impressed Paper after he thought she was just like Scissors all along.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Paper was still shocked. “...And, you built that?”
“Yeah!! Now, do you see what I was talking about?”, Frye said, still very excited about what she made.
Paper stared at her. “But if you built that…and now that I think about it, you were saying really wise stuff earlier…that can only mean…” His eyes sparkled while he looked at her. “...You’re super smart…”
It seemed like Paper’s perspective on Frye changed rather quickly. He went from loving her, to somewhat disliking her, to loving her again. He would wonder how long this pattern would repeat if he wasn’t so attracted to her smarts at the moment…and her beauty again.
Frye however, was oblivious to his gaze on her. “So…now that you showed me your thing, why don’t I show you mine?”
Paper continued to give her a lovestruck gaze. “...Run away with me.”
“What?”
“Huh?”
“N-no, what did you say? Something about running away with geese? I couldn’t really hear you.”, Frye said, looking skeptical of Paper yet again.
“Well…I didn’t exactly….It wasn’t…uh…” Paper stammers while trying to compose himself and distract Frye from what he said. “You were saying that you had another thing..?”
Luckily, Frye was distracted from him saying she was gonna tell him about her thing. “Oh, yeah!!” She grabs him and rushes outside. “Come on! Come on! We gotta be outside for me to show you!”
Paper was shocked once Frye pulled him with her. He thought to himself again; “A case of hidden smarts, I see…”, but that didn’t change what he thought about her overall.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...I'm not finished with the thing yet, but its probably gonna be one of my favorite things I ever wrote to be honest-
To Love an Eel Tamer
Alright, second Mediaverse bonus! Obligatory warning for all those Shivrye, Penper, and Papercut shippers; This fanfic features a fan ship that I have a gut feeling will definitely piss you off. If any of you go up to me on this site opposing to this in any way, I WILL draw Frye and Paper kissing to scare you away. I know I'm not a very talented artist, but that doesn't mean I'll ignore the amount of power I have.
All jokes aside, I hope you like this!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After Act 1 of TOOTM (The Objective of The Mission), Shiver and Frye formally introduced themselves to Paper and Scissors. While Shiver and Scissors were busy with a quarrel of their own, Frye was poking around at Paper's different inventions in his room, while Paper himself was trying to figure out a way to approach the girl.
“These things look super cool!” Frye holds an invention up in her hands and it explodes shortly after. “Hm. Too bad they keep exploding.”
Paper paid no mind to Frye screwing around in his room, as he was lost in his own thoughts about the situation. “Okay, Paper, a weird..squid alien…is she an alien? Whatever. This woman is in your room right now. Before you mindlessly fall in love, think about what she could be plotting against you. She came from another world for crying out loud! And to top it off, she’s a bandit! She could steal your money, your friends, your….your brain…Okay before all of this, find out if she’s an alien.”
Frye continued to dig around Paper’s things and found a box that was labeled ‘box of failures’.
“Hey!!”, she calls for his attention, breaking his train of thought. “What’s this box of junk for?”
Paper immediately turns to Frye in shock of her sudden call and spots the box. “...Oh, that's just a box of junk from my…failed..inventions, but trust me, most of them are guaranteed to work-”, he says right after yet another invention explodes behind him. “...I didn't even touch that one!”
Frye looked skeptical, but not from the exploding invention. “Uh huh…So, you just hoard all of this junk and not do something with it?”
“...what?”
She continued to dig through the box. “Think about it, man. You keep this box that's LITERALLY named ‘box of failures’. If you don't do anything with it, it's super pointless, and it'll remind you of your past screw-ups! Do you actually WANT to be reminded about how much you failed!?”
Paper looked slightly offended by Frye's words. “Well…I don't, but…what you said can be true…but they failed anyway, what's the point of going back to it?”
An annoyed expression was on Frye's face. “Yeesh. I know you're an inventor, but you're missing A LOT of things about being one.”
Paper instantly looked fed up, not believing that he almost fell for this girl. He began to think to himself; “...Geez, Paper, you should've saw this coming when you first saw her. She's just a carbon copy of Scissors..”
Frye continued to ramble. “I mean, look at all this! So much potential from ideas that your brain forged, and you decide to just give up on them the second they fail? That's nonsense! I mean, if you don't want to bring these inventions back to life, at least try to mesh them up into one ultra-mega-big invention!”
Frye began to dig through the box and grabbed some tools to build the ultra invention she was talking about.
While Frye built something with the junk, Paper turned around to see what she was doing. “Wha-...What are you doing??”
Frye scoffed playfully. “Pfft. What you shoulda been doing.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After a few minutes, Frye was finally finished with building and eager to show Paper what he she did, and what he should've done this whole time.
Paper was shocked and couldn’t believe what he was seeing. “...So…what is this supposed to be…?”
Frye smirked. “What do you think it is~?”
The two were looking at a gigantic, menacing, evil-looking robot. Frye jumped up and down in an excited manner. “Look! Look! I built a robot that dispenses food, has speaker-shoulders so you can listen to music, a teleporter that can teleport anything a 100 feet away…and has a formula for no-smear makeup!!”
Paper was absolutely speechless. “..I-”
“And, you, Mr. Smart Guy, get to see what it does so you don’t think I'm bluffing.”, Frye chimed in as she pushed a button on the robot.
The robot did everything Frye had designed it to do, such as dispensing food like ice cream and cheeseburgers, blasts loud music from its speaker-shoulders, teleports a wrench to who knows where in 100 feet, and puts makeup on the both of them and splashes water on their faces to show how it doesn’t smear. It even wipes them off after it was done. What a nice robot!
Paper was still shocked. “...And, you built that?”
“Yeah!! Now, do you see what I was talking about?”, Frye said, still very excited about what she made.
Paper stared at her. “But if you built that…and now that I think about it, you were saying really wise stuff earlier…that can only mean…” His eyes sparkled while he looked at her. “...You’re super smart…”
It seemed like Paper’s perspective on Frye changed rather quickly. He went from loving her, to somewhat disliking her, to loving her again. He’d wonder how long this pattern would repeat if he wasn’t so attracted to her smarts at the moment…and her beauty again.
Frye however, was oblivious to his gaze on her. “So…now that you showed me your thing, why don’t I show you mine?”
Paper continued to give her a lovestruck gaze. “...Run away with me.”
“What?”
“Huh?”
“N-no, what did you say? Something about running away with geese? I couldn’t really hear you.”, Frye said, looking skeptical of Paper yet again.
“Well…I didn’t exactly….It wasn’t…uh…” Paper stammers while trying to compose himself and distract Frye from what he said. “You were saying that you had another thing..?”
Luckily, Frye was distracted from him saying she was gonna tell him about her thing. “Oh, yeah!!” She grabs him and rushes outside. “Come on! Come on! We gotta be outside for me to show you!”
Paper was shocked once Frye pulled him with her. He thought to himself again; “A case of hidden smarts, I see…”, but that didn’t change what he thought about her overall.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Okay, you ready for this? You better be!” Frye flips onto a car outside and plays a short tune on a wooden flute.
…
“...So, is flute-playing your thing?”, Paper asked, confused as to why Frye brought them outside just to play a flute.
Frye shushed him again. “Give it time..”
Cut to the portal where Deep Cut came from. A swarm of moray eels fly out of the portal, causing destruction in their path.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It did take the eels quite a while to get to Frye and Paper, however.
Frye seemed to get irritated. “Come on, come ON! What’s the hold up?”
Paper still seemed confused. “I’m sorry, what are we waiting for, again?”
Suddenly, the eels swarm towards Frye and create a tornado, which she’s seen on top of. “YES, YES, YES! About time!”
Once again, Paper was shocked. He couldn’t believe that what looked like hundreds of eels just swarmed over to his supposed dream girl, and she’s taming them like it’s nothing! “...HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS!?”
“See, see? This is my thing! You like it? It’s amazing, isn’t it?”, Frye says while laughing away and spinning on the tornado of eels. “Wheee!! Wheee!!”
While Paper saw all of this, his brain screamed at him; “You are in love with a MANIAC!! This woman is insane!”
While Frye cackled and tamed the eels with ease, the eels suddenly left since something seemingly caught their attention, leaving her to fall right onto Paper.
“OW!! ….Hey, where are those eels off to!?” She noticed that she fell directly on Paper. “Oh. Sorry about that. Guess you lightened the fall, eh?”
“....owww…..”
Frye also notices that she landed right on her flute as well, and it broke on impact. “Huh? NO!! I didn’t just.. This can’t be!!”
Frye gets up and helps Paper up too. “Listen, we’re like friends now, right? You gotta help me get a new flute so I can get those pesky eels back!”
Paper just stared at her. From the looks of it, this girl was insane to him and the best option is to get away from her, but he couldn’t help but just look at her and have these mixed feelings of love, fear, and curiosity. Pencil is a great girl too, but Frye was entirely different. He never expected to fall in love with someone like her.
Frye gets irritated again and shakes Paper around a bit. “Hello!? Anybody home? I’m talking to you!”
He stopped Frye from shaking him. “Okay. Okay, I'm hearing you!” He thought for a minute. “...but…what if I build you a new flute and it can work just as well as your old one!”
“....okay, cool.”
With that, the two went inside and Paper got to building. This felt so exciting to him; he was gonna show Frye his true capabilities of being an inventor…and maybe she’ll be impressed enough to be his girlfriend! Or not…those mixed emotions were still there..
He handed the finished product to Frye…and it exploded before she could even finish the taming melody on it.
“....Yeah, let’s just buy a new one.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two were walking down the street to the nearest music store in hopes of finding a flute.
Paper guided Frye to the music store. “Okay, we go to the music store, you get a new flute, you get the eels back and send them back where they came from, right?”
Frye angrily searches for her eels but still listens. “Right. I swear, those eels are gonna get such a scolding when I-” Suddenly, she gets distracted by seeing a skatepark. “Cool! A skatepark!!” She drags Paper with her.
Paper yelped as Frye dragged him. “W-weren’t you just angry a second ago?”
“C’mon, we can’t just be outside without having some fun!” Frye grabbed a nearby skateboard…well, stole one, and prepared to ride it. “Besides, didn’t you ever skateboard before? This could be a first-time experience for ya!”
Paper huffed. “In fact, I have experience riding a skateboard before, now can we please get a flute so-”
“Really!?” Frye’s eyes lit up in anticipation as she shoved the skateboard into Paper’s hands. “Why don’t you show me?”
“Uh…I don’t really think we have time to…you know…do this..”, Paper said, obviously having lied about his ‘past experience’ skateboarding.
Frye continued to encourage him, still believing he could skateboard. “Aw, come on! I’m sure it’ll be super awesome!”
Paper began to sweat and position himself on the skateboard. “Okay….here it goes ….about to skateboard…” He knew there’s no backing down now. Frye and multiple people at the skatepark were watching him…but at least this was considered a chance to impress Frye since she seemed excited about watching him skateboard. “...One…Two-” While preparing himself, Paper slipped down a slope on accident, and to make a long story short, he got pretty banged up while slipping, sliding, and crashing around the park.
“Haha! Wicked wipeout, man!”, Frye teased.
Paper lies there on the ground in serious pain. “...I knew doing this was a mistake…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After Paper got patched up, he and Frye got back to their original objective.
Paper sighed, hoping that he won’t have to put himself into a situation like that today. “Okay, no more distractions. Just going to the music store and buying a new flute, got it?”
“Hm. Alright. I really gotta find those eels anyway.”, Frye huffed. She looked over at Paper again. “Hey…are you alright from crashing all over the place?”
“Oh… Yeah, I'm okay…” Paper looked away from Frye for a second. “Listen, why don’t we-”
Frye pointed out something once again. “No way! You got a candy buffet here!?”
“Hm?” Paper turned his attention to the candy buffet. “I…actually never noticed that here-”
“Well, notice it now, and come inside with me!!” Frye drags him inside the restaurant.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While the two were inside, Frye was eating what seemed like a truckload of sweets, while Paper was eating a simple cake slice.
“Uh… are you sure you’re gonna be.. Okay after you eat all of that?” Paper said, concerned about how Frye would feel after eating so much sugar.
Frye laughed. “Psh. I’ll be fine! I ate a ton of sweets like this before, it’s what gets me goin’! Sometimes I wish I knew someone who could eat as much sugar as I can. Imagine the insane eating contests we’d get into.”
Paper listened. Perhaps this was another chance to impress Frye. It was a very stupid idea to do this but, hey, he’s taking the chances he gets.
“Well, Frye, consider yourself to be looking at that very person.” Paper knew he’d regret this the same way he regretted lying about being good at skateboarding.
Frye gasped happily. “Really? Well, I don’t wanna get into a contest right now…”
For a moment, Paper sighed in relief. “I'm safe…”
“...But just for confirmation…” She dumps half of her sweets pile onto his plate. “Can you show me how much you can eat?”
Paper sweated in fear but still smiled nervously. “Uh… yeah… alright…”
His brain yelled at him again; “Why do you keep lying!?
Once again, to make a long story short, Paper felt sick like any normal person after eating that much sugar.
“uuuuhhggg…..”
Frye saw him lie on the table in numbness and abdominal pain. “Aw. Guess your stomach wasn’t up to the task today.” She got up and (literally) dragged Paper out of the restaurant. “Welp, there’s no use lying around now! We still got some eels to catch, and I'm hyped up now!”
Paper groaned again. “So NOW you wanna find them….”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two were on the walk again, and luckily, Paper began to feel a bit better.
He grumbled in annoyance. “That’s it. No more stopping for anything. We NEED to focus on what we’re doing!”
Frye listened carefully. “You’re right! I know i got distracted, but I promise that I got my head in the game. We’re finding those eels right now!”
Paper looked at Frye and thought about the things that happened to him today. How can someone so smart act so airheaded and get distracted so easily? He couldn’t really comprehend that factor about her. “That’s fine…” he sighed and looked away from her. “Let’s just really focus and-”
Frye gasped loudly when something else caught her attention.
Paper quickly turned to Frye again. “What? What happened?”
“Is that…..a CARNIVAL!?” Frye eagerly pointed at a carnival nearby.
Paper knew that Frye would get distracted again. “Oh, lord…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two found themselves roaming around the carnival, Frye being excited about it, wanting to do about everything here, and Paper just wanting to do what he and Frye came to do in the first place.
Frye happily bounced around. “So whaddya wanna do first? Ride a ride? Play some games? Get some food?”
Paper grumbled. “Whatever gets done quicker so your eels don’t destroy anything before you get them back..”
Frye frowned. “Aw, you’ve been acting a little boring today….I can understand why you’re like this..”
“Oh, yeah? Why am I acting like this?”, Paper replied somewhat sarcastically.
“You’re super used to people acting the way I do, I can tell. Not being too pushy, but I already told you I’m not from here! I just wanna see what this place has to offer.” Frye smiled again. “I just wanna have a little fun, y’know? I’m sure you felt the same way, but if you wanna get this over with, can we do at least one thing here?”
After Frye spoke, Paper softened up a bit. Frye only wanted to experience a new world and look for a bit of fun, despite doing that at a bit of an inappropriate time, but he was just stopping her in some cases…Wait…
At that moment, Paper’s eyes widened. He finally realized WHY he fell in love with Frye. She was just acting like…herself! She’s smart, mischievous, peppy, stubborn…all those traits and more bundled up inside of her. He finally came to terms on why he had these feelings of love, but…he wasn’t used to falling in love with someone like this.
Frye was waiting for him to speak up until she saw her eels riding the ferris wheel. “....WHAT!?!? HEY!!” Frye growled at the eels.
Paper broke out of his thoughts after he heard Frye’s growl. “Huh??” He turned to where the eels were. “They were HERE this whole time!?”
‘Those darn EELS!!!” Frye hissed, but then turned to a street performer who just so happens to be playing a flute! “A-ha!”
Frye went to the street performer and took their flute.
“Hey!”
“I’ll give it back!”
Frye played the taming melody on the flute and the eels immediately rushed to her side.
Paper watched the whole thing unfold. “Well, I didn't expect everything to be resolved like this.”
Frye angrily scolded the eels. “So THIS is where you’ve been!? I can’t believe you’d disobey me like this and run off! You could’ve wrecked EVERYTHING!!”
While Frye scolded the eels, Paper began to feel a bit of sympathy for them. “Wait, Frye.. Maybe they had the same idea you had. Maybe they only wanted to experience a new world, too!”
“Hm… Is that really what you guys wanted?” Frye turned back to the eels, and they nodded in confirmation. “Aww… you guys just wanted to have fun, too!! …You can stay with us, but you better not leave without my permission!”
Paper stood there and watched. A part of him just wanted to blurt out his true feelings to Frye right here and now, but the other part was too nervous to do so.
Frye suddenly wrapped a friendly arm around him. “So, all’s well that ends well, right? Things turned out just fine! And…sorry for getting sidetracked earlier. I know you musta felt pissed.”
Paper looked at Frye and smiled. “You don’t have to apologize for anything. Just getting to know you and doing things with you today has been really fun!” He frowned a bit. “But… I’m sorry for trying to prevent you from having fun here.”
Frye looked shocked. “You? Prevent me from having fun? Don’t be silly!” She hugged him a bit. “Today has been AWESOME! Creating a giant robot, hanging out at a skatepark, and now we’re at a carnival! This has all been amazing!”
…Paper smiled widely and leaned into the hug, feeling happy and…safe in Frye’s arms.
Frye only saw it as something weird. “Aaaand, this hug feels awkward now.”
Paper snapped out of it and quickly pulled away from the hug. “Uhm…s-sorry about that… What do you say we spend the rest of the day here? Neither of us have anything to do now, and I kinda want to spend a little bit more time with you.”
Frye smiled and hopped a bit. “I thought you’d never say that!” What was she excited about specifically? The carnival. She was happy she got to stay at the carnival a little bit longer.
She giggled and walked around the carnival with Paper. “This is great! We can go on rides and stuff… and do other things too! Look at us! Frye and Paper: a duo of awesome friends waiting to get into all sorts of adventures!”
Paper smiles at Frye’s enthusiasm “Yeah.. I’m sure we’ll have lots of fun.”

How does stone paper work in rock paper scissors?
Cuz like... Scissors cut paper but rock destroys scissors and stone paper is both rock and paper.
Following that same line of thought does that make stone paper a stick or a rock.
Not exactly, Wind, tho Spirit at least keeps the little guy entertained
Concept: Part 1 || Part 2
I'm german it's scissors, stone, paper because anything else just sounds wrong

Scissor Wizard and Paper Wizard
It’s probably fine to leave them alone together.
Despite me not being into it at first, Rock, Paper, Scissors surprised me. It's has a Uncle Grandpa and Athf vibe, goofy, wacky and somewhat fun. I recommend it if you are a fan of shows like this!
