PAPYRUS

Papyrus is going to be weirded the heck out by his space disguise, because normally they're glamours but this one feels real, and haven't they had enough of being changed lately?

That, and he's a hanar: everyone's favorite pink jellyfish from Mass Effect. Completely boneless, meant to live in water, dependent on antigrav devices - or blue magic, should those devices fail thanks to budget snafus and mechanical problems. Unnervingly unlike himself.

Between that weirdness, and wanting to be around when his brother's egg hatches, he's mostly sticking to the carnival.

We can arrange for specifically going on outings with people, and he'll probably venture out a bit more as the event progresses. Especially once the mechanical failures start happening. If hanar in this universe are anything like the ME ones, he's going to shockingly stand out with how he talks. That could be a fun hook for a confrontational NPC.

I'm not sure yet if he'll be able to truly compete in any of the Olympic events. Maybe Space Darts? Hanar supposedly have very good grips, but trouble handling more than a couple hundred grams of weight, and it's a very unfamiliar form. Something that takes too much coordination would be poor at best.
