"Hey, thanks!!" Papyrus calls out gratefully as Eddie first shakes the small crab off.

The intervention's a surprise, but a welcome one - he has far too much experience with a thieving dog back home, and far too little help dealing with its mischief. One of the upsides of being here was supposed to be a reprieve from all that.

Once the boot's shaken and dusted, Papyrus readies himself with a grateful smile. It's important to say thanks for this kind of help! But then, well, the boot rescuer seems a little... distracted by something. Maybe the skeleton thing. Quite a few people have been startled by a skeleton in their midst, like they've all forgotten how similarly humans and skeletons are shaped. But maybe not? It could be something else, and he errs on the side of not - the better to ramble and give a chance for composure gathering.

"Impressed by my attire, huh?" He poses just a little bit more, but it really doesn't make the outfit more impressive. "I know, it really needs that boot to bring it all together! But you've saved fashion today. Thanks for that!!"
