[Sans watches, though the Cursed are still unsettling even on video. As the video adjusts and shifts, they're obviously not the point here. Okay, the eye is important. The spiky mass is important, enough to be excited about.]

So, are we gonna have to get to that spiky thing? D'you wanna go there, too, or are you gonna hang back and let everyone else do the Cursed dodging?

[There isn't actually any judgment there--Sans would let others do the Cursed dodging, too, ideally.]

[The umbrella’s handle heats up under Sans’s hand at the suggestion of staying back. Seems to be a sore subject. No, it’ll be there. It seems — kind of eager for it? Not for the danger exactly, but chomping at the bit to get it done already.]

Okay, got it, you'll be there too. [Don't set him on fire, please. Except he knows burning hands, so maybe he would be fine. Well, don't give him reason to have to test that.] It's a long walk.

[A long walk through extremely hostile territory.]

But if there's something specific for everyone to focus on, that might keep 'em from trying to swim off the island or something.

[They are a chaotic bunch.]

[Something specific to focus on?]

[The handle cools down. Idly, the umbrella sways on its axis of Sans's wrist.]

[After a moment of this, it swings around much further, circling to tap Sans on the skull. Is he the something specific?]

[ribticklers]

[An umbrella swinging at him like that is a little alarming, you know!]

Me? I ain't really a leader type. [Even without all of his memories, he's sure that's way too much responsibility.] But I can tell 'em about that place in the cursed zone and that you're pretty focused on it. If they all know something important's there we're more likely to find a way over there that doesn't involve dealing with a whole ocean of Cursed.

[Now, feeding people information to encourage them to do things he wants them to, that is Sans's style.]

[The umbrella does not seem sorry.]

[It doesn't move again for a little while, though. What does happen, after a little while of stillness, is a sudden sharp gust of wind that cuts through the cabanas, jostling a nearby coconut tree. A coconut slams down onto a rock and cracks neatly in two.]

[It's probably nothing.]
