Day 14: Chit-chatting all the way; a forgotten hidden treasure found; hot puzzles; "mommy, please don't let them cook me!"
Time spent: 2 hours.

It's pretty nice watching the Language Select menu being covered by a shower of dry leaves. I saw them before, but I didn't mention it. What I did realize this time around was that when you start a new game, the musicalization is pretty simplistic, but as you progress, it becomes more well-crafted. Neat.

The first hour or so of playtime was consumed by my need to check every single screen --from the door to the Ruins, all the way to Hotland-- on my phone. It was a tedious task, but I had to do it. Every screen before Snowdin Town was answered by Papyrus, so at least I rested knowing that I didn't miss anything after meeting Undyne. I noticed a couple of what seemed to be small typos, like seeing ".." at the end of a sentence said by Papyrus, and maybe other ones I don't remember. Oh, I remember one of them appearing to be a typo but was not: "Pupularity" (Was that it? I think so...) I checked Sans's crossword this time, and saw at least one word (that I also don't remember) that wasn't written to be found. There seemed to be another one: "Snot...? Oh, it's 'skeletons' backwards. lol" I noticed there weren't any enemies this time, just regular "teens" and other monsters to whom I could talk peacefully. I played with the snowball trying to get a good score, but it wasn't that worth it. I finally reached the door to the Ruins, closed as before. (You know, knowing that I can never, ever come back to Toriel, leaving her behind without being able to look back... It feels so nostalgic. It feels like I've left something really precious. At least I hope I can come back in one way or another, or watching Toriel later in the game.) I returned to Snowdin, but I forgot that I hadn't checked one screen: the one with the reel on the water! "Darn it..." Well, I went back, hoping that Papyrus told me something useful about that note... But no.

Anyway, I went to Snowdin's "Snowed Inn", sleeping in there, but for the life of me, I can't understand WHEN or HOW do I have to go there to "go over my mximum HP"... Or so I thought. I talked again to the bunny monster in the shop to see if she had anything else to say this time around, but no, so at least I refreshed my memory; although, she did mention the monsters lived in the Ruins, but that the door was sealed a long time ago. Is she actually talking about the door I passed through, or the door I still have to open in the Snowy Mountains?

Well, I kept walking, went through the waterfall area, and reached Onion-san. Onion told me about their band: The "Red Hot Chibi Peppers" (since this is a family-friendly game, and Toby Fox has carefully planned the game to be cute but epic, I thought that, as awesome as the RHCP are, it's kind of weird he chose a band that literally has a song named after, and based around, a Spanish curse word). Later I realized that every screen you've passed through after the Ruins is also passable a second time... or at least up to the point where you get pushed by the kid monster up a platform when you put down your umbrella. Speaking of which, I passed the piano room from before, not knowing how to solve the puzzle. Turns out, I didn't actually put the umbrela on the statue the last time, so maybe my mind tricked me when I looked at a video for reference of what I had done up to that point. This was evident as I could no longer take away the umbrella, and that there were notes up in the air. The text box said that "only the first 8 matter", so I went ahead, memorized the notes, and played them over on the piano. Boom! A secret door opened. I went through it, and I found a rare, red gem; but I couldn't take it since apparently "I had too many dogs with me". "What?..." *checks inventory* [...]
