Not that he would ever directly say so. He isn't very good with words in that regard, but...
His brother is his whole world.
A few tears on his own part would never be anything, if he could trade them in just to get Sans to smile.

Summary
Family is what you choose. That's what Papyrus has always known.
And all things considered, from the very beginning, he didn't have one to call his own.
. . .
Except practically now all of Snowdin Town, that is.
Everyone knows him.
Everyone loves him.
And he should be happy.
He should know they care about him.
...
But...
There's a reason he showed up here in the first place.
Right?

You've found your true love.
Someone you'll spend the rest of your life with; someone to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, until the very end.
Someone who you will love with all your heart, and with all your Soul, just as much as you're loved in return.
And he's happy for you! Really!!

Just...
Still a little regretful, maybe.

Summary
It's been a year since monsters first moved to the surface, and things are going relatively well, everything considered; even after their human ally, the one who freed them, suddenly chose to leave and go on their own path, they've found a way to make a name for themselves, more or less. There's just a small problem...
Frisk has gone missing. Even though they hadn't been directly influencing the monsters' integration with humans, they'd been at least a portion of it, simply because they still supported them in some ways. Without that, monsterkind doesn't have much to go off of, unless they're somehow able to convince the humans on their own.
It could be worse. It could also be better. It seems it always could be better, really.
Even so... Papyrus isn't willing to give up so easily.
