leaves a bone on her doorstep. literally just a bone. who does it belong to? some distant relative? himself? a hellish beast they cannot even begin to comprehend? he.. doesn't actually know where it came from. the Annoying Dog brought it by one day. there's no note left with it, but that in itself ought to be as good as a greeting card.
After hearing a sound at the door, it took Alphys a good long hour to work up the nerve to go and check it out. After all, it was likely another unwanted mail delivery... though at this hour that was unusual.
Slowly she slid the door open, peeking cautiously outside as if the letters were going to attack, until she realized it wasn’t letters at all. Pushing the button on the wall made the metal doors open all the way, allowing her to see better and stare in disbelief. On her doorstep was a lonely bone. Just a bone. Nothing else, not even an indication as to where it had come from-- though she had a pretty good idea.
Several weeks later, sans would find something outside his door, too. An action figure with a badly-painted face standing atop a familiar lonely bone. Part of Alphys hoped that this would come off as funny as she had intended, rather than rude. She decided it was best not to overthink it.
