The Genocidal Pacifist Route
So, I made a short post earlier on this, and am now making one more in depth to this AU style idea.
Again, it starts out normal. Frisk falls to the Underground and gets attacked by Flowey, but something’s off. Frisk has done a great many Resets, but they can’t remember them at all. They are no longer aware of the power inside them, and in a psychological problem are unable to access these powers either way. Frisk at this point is running low on Determination. They have only the slightest amount left, enough to maintain a healthy soul color, but it is no longer a vibrant red.
Flowey is the first to know Frisk’s memory is gone and finds it hilarious until he realizes Frisk is unable to use their power. He knows what Frisk is capable of, and if they can’t reset themselves back to the beginning, there will be no hope if they go full genocide.
Despite the potential, Frisk had never before completed a Genocide Route. The guilt would get to them, or they’d simply give up.
This is a timeline of the Routes Frisk has done.
Pacifist|You know the part where Flowey is wondering if you did the right thing by sparing everyone and leaving? That’s when they wonder if they could do it all over again, and when Flowey informs them it’s possible, they unconsciously end up resetting.
Part Genocide| They decided to try killing all monsters, but they weren’t strong enough and ended up stopping when Papyrus talks to you at Snowdin. They try to be good from then on, but when the time comes to leave, and they believe they’ve done it, it all resets without them wanting one.
Half Genocide| At this point, they are a bit unstable. They’ve gone full genocide and then ended up stopping after Undyne. Before unconsciously resetting again, they had a mental breakdown full of regret, fear, and confusion.
Pacifist| They don’t know how to make it stop resetting and leave it. They are more off now, though this time they tried being kind to all, and ended up liking the ending so much they didn’t want to leave.
Pacifist| They’re scared. What were they doing wrong? Why couldn’t they keep an ending? They try asking for help from others, but Flowey laughs, other monsters simply try to comfort them and assure them the other timelines were bad dreams. And Sans, well, Sans wouldn’t answer their questions.
No-Mercy| They try a new strategy and decide that distancing yourself is the easiest way to get through. They figure out how to consciously save, load, and reset.
No Mercy| They are barely aware of the difference between monsters now, except that they all are easy to kill and turn to dust. They are able to take control of resets. Flowey simply hangs around, kind of scared at this point, since they no nothing of course BUT the No Mercy runs Frisk has done.
No Mercy| They are very emotionally distant, and are getting the hang of the timelines.
No Mercy| The last route before they try Genocide.
No Mercy| kind of bored, distant, locked away emotions
No Mercy| Stopped after Undyne, regretful, coming back. Starting as well to lose memories of previous timelines
Neutral| Accidently kills Mettaton.  And, they reset back to the beginning.
True Pacifist| thinks it’s over, unstable, is losing control over the resets, can no longer see saves unless they think about it. Can’t remember specific events from other timelines.
True Pacifist| Scared, can’t stop the resets from happening, but they can cause them. Can no longer see save points. Doesn’t remember much from the other timelines except that they happened, and the general summary of what they did.
No Mercy| Thinks maybe it was in the route they chose. They were wrong, and still can’t figure anything out. It doesn’t help they don’t remember the other timelines other than that they happened.
Pacifist| they’ve at this point forgotten how to reset. Knows that something is wrong, but can’t place it. Is having nightmares and flashbacks without knowing what they are.
Neutral| “kills”? Undyne-Confused, scared, just wants everything to stop resetting. Also an accident. They had a flash hallucination of a no-mercy route and ended up hurting Undyne.
Current| Can’t remember the other timelines, had a LOT of nightmares when they were younger, but doesn’t get them anymore. Little by little Frisks’ memory is returning, along with the mental and emotional problems that came with it. Only now that Frisks’ mind is more developed, they are able to handle everything a LOT easier than when they were young. They still don’t know how to reset, or how to stop them from happening, but they hope this time to get some answers as their memory returns.

The Route itself is not canon since you can’t stay with Toriel. In any case, again. Frisk stays with Toriel and is VERY clingy when they first fall. They get horrible headaches when around something for the first time, caused by memories that were repressed due to their low DT levels. If they were to begin to gain DT again to the point where their SOUL was as healthy as the day Frisk fell, their memories would be unlocked, so to speak. The ability to reset is HEAVILY influenced by Frisk’s mental state, however. Yes, DT does play a part in this as well, so combined with their HORRIBLE state of mind after so many resets and their unhealthy DT level, Frisk is now unable to reset, load, or even SAVE. therefore, this is a PERMANENT timeline. THe last one.
If it was an actual route in the game, you would have to completely uninstall Undertale, and then reinstall it in order to erase these effects. Another thing is that you have to have to play a certain number of routes in order to allow for this run. Your FUN level needs to be at 0, and a new stat would come into play. TD2
Trans-Dimensional-Determination
Like FUN, this is only able to be seen in the SAVE files themselves. Unlike FUN, this level cannot be edited. The level will stay the same after you close it out, and can only be changed through completing the routes. Actions will affect this level, as well as how many times you reset.
The Original TD2: “85″
Flee: +1
Spare: +4
ACT: +0
ITEM: +0
FIGHT: -1
Every Monster Killed: +5 -3
Boss Monsters Killed: +6 -2
Boss Monsters Spared: +6 -0
Every reset will take away 1 to 10 points from your TD2 until you hit 20. After this, you are unable to reset again, so whatever route you decide to go will be permanent for your game.
This is when you are able to take the Genocidal Pacifist Route and stay with Toriel. There are several puzzles, “quests”, and such along the way as you guide Frisk into growing up. You go to school, learn the language, make friends, and learn new skills as well. Your AGE stat will tell you how old you are and replaces the LV in the menu until you hit 19. Then it switches back to LV, and a human falls underground.
This human has a CORRUPTED SOUL. (link to my post on SOULS) They have already distanced themselves, and one by one begin to dust monsters behind your back. The child lives with you and Toriel for a short while, until you leave the HOME to meet some “friends” that you made, and return to an empty home. 
You will go downstairs to an open door and a pile of dust.
“It’s a pile of monster dust. There’s a small, human sized footprint in it.”
The screen flashes red, and you then go on a journey to track down this child and be the ‘sans’ of this route.
To find the child, you basically have to follow a trail of dust. Horrible, I know. You get four confrontations with the child. Each is a chance to either SPARE or FIGHT.
In the fourth confrontation, however, there is no spare option. Like in Genocide, the child has proven they will not change, and you have no choice left but to FIGHT or Die. How you handle this is up to you.
Well, that’s pretty much the basic storyline of the Route. And also all I have. If you want to hear more about this go ahead and ask me! If you want to write a story or a short just be sure to either tag it GP!Route or Universe, or basically anything you do for it. I honestly would love to see someone take my idea and turn it into something REALLY cool. I wanna make a comic for this too, and I’ve already started a story.
Anyway, have FUN everyone, ciao!
