[Papyrus has never been in so significant an earthquake before, and it is alarming enough to drive him to grab some things and head outside in short order... But it's not quite the most alarming moment of his life - with less near-certain risk of death to it than some other moments - not on the surface like this. The roof might fall in, but a rock probably won't land on him here.
But whatever edge he has in dealing with the stress of the situation isn't a huge one, and he startles at the sound of yelling as he's only just opening his front door. He whips the flashlight about even more wildly than the tremors make it shake, until he catches a hint of the shape in the street.]
Hold on! Yes, I'm here to help...!
[How much he can back that comment up is in question, but for now Papyrus tromps across the shaking ground in the direction of the yells.]
I. Rooftops
