#Bad Sans

[mikimakiboo]

I had a concept idea a while ago for a video game that takes place in the multiverse, so you would meet different aus and, of course, different sanses through the game

Just like in Undertale there would be a pacifist a neutral and a genocide route, except to finish the genocide it's hard af

I honestly didn't think much about it, I only got the encounter with the bad sanses (Killer, Dust and Horror, Cross isn't part of the group here) in the genocide run lol but anyway, you meet them through the game individually and then meet them again all together in the end, you don't meet Nightmare until the very end, after the group encounter

To make a genocide route you obviously have to kill the bad sanses, as they are part of the game, but here's where it becomes tricky:

• you have to kill at least one individually to unlock the group fight at the end, if you spare the three they won't fight you at the end, turning your genocide route to a neutral route and you have to start again to make a new genocide

• if you kill one, the other two will avenge him in the final fight, same if you kill two, the last one will avenge them, so expect the fight to be incredibly hard

• however, if you kill anyone but Killer first, he'll reset your game himself, so you have to kill Killer first, but he's the last one you meet, so you would have to spare the first two and either come back later to kill them or wait for the group fight

• you can kill the three individually, just make sure to kill Killer first or he'll reset your game

• you cannot spare them in the group fight, if you killed one, you'll have to kill the other two, even in neutral, they won't let you spare them and won't end the fight so it's the only way out

• Nightmare will only show up after the group fight once you killed the three, and it'll be his turn to avenge them and fight you, however, Nightmare being immortal and not letting you spare him, you will be trapped in an endless fight that'll force you to reset your game

At that point you might think the genocide is impossible as you won't be able to go past Nightmare's fight, but there is a way to kill him ! It's just hard to figure

• you have to complete at least three pacifist routes and meet Dream each time to complete his quests, on the fourth pacifist route he'll recognize you as someone with a good heart and will give you one of his arrows

• you can now reset, the arrow will stay in your inventory, however it takes three arrows to defeat Nightmare, but Dream won't give you another one if he sees you already have one in your inventory, so you have to put it in a box, complete a new pacifist to get the second arrow, put it in the box with the first one, and complete yet another pacifist to have the third arrow, then you can take the first two back

• you can now start a new genocide while making sure to kill Killer first out of the three and NOT use the arrows

• Nightmare will show up at the end for the final fight, and that is when you'll use Dream's arrows to kill him and complete the genocide

Congratulations ! You completed a genocide route !

I have absolutely zero ideas for the rest of the game so if anyone wanna make their own quests and include their own characters then go on, but please do tag me because I would wanna see :D

EDIT:

You will only be able to fight Dream after you've killed Nightmare, however, he is pissed that you killed his twin using his own arrows that he gave you because he trusted you, due to that he won't spare you and his fight will be very hard, you have no choice but to kill him

Somehow I never posted this off discord

Killer Sans be like *cries his eyes out* this is fine *trembles uncontrollably in unimaginable agony* I literally do not feel anything *chokes on dt* this doesn’t mean anything *curls up in a ball and whimpers pathetically* I am emotionless no really u do not understand *gasping for air as his soul switches into stage 1* this isn’t me I promise *uncontrollably shakes* its just the body

hiiii can i, perhaps, request nightmare again? you wrote him so well last time that i'm still thinking about it slfjfkffj i've read it about 50 times

Hehehe of course~! I'm so sorry for the wait! Also, thank you! I'm happy that you enjoyed the last request. ♥♥♥♥

Don’t imagine sitting right beside him as he addresses his men, who are all sitting on either side of a long table, while Nightmare sits at the end.

You do your best to pay attention, but his hand on your thigh prevents you from listening to his words. It’s also growing harder to keep your face from becoming hot. 

Don’t imagine him squeezing your skin when you attempt to move his hand, his claws slightly digging into your flesh.

A warning to not do that again.

Don’t imagine Nightmare’s hand creeping upward in a teasing manner before slightly going back down. With every movement you make to try to get comfortable, his hand edges upward, causing you to sit still as much as possible.

You listen to the rest of his speech before Nightmare dismisses his men. Don’t imagine the knowing smirk on Killer’s face as he winks at you before everyone leaves.

There’s silence and tension in the room before you feel tentacles wrap around you and drag you toward Nightmare. 

Don’t imagine him setting you on his lap, chest to chest, as he wraps his one arm around your waist and his other hand cradling the back of your neck to prevent you from moving.

A low growl escapes him as he speaks to you in his low velvety voice of his, the kind that makes you shiver from hearing it.

“Don’t expect to sleep early tonight, Pet.”

Before you can utter a word, Nightmare leans forward and presses his teeth to your lips, silencing any protest that you might have had.

Don’t imagine the sounds that come out of that room that would make any monster envious of the two behind that door.

Trying to make sure twitter and tumblr are on similar pages! Have Resto!Noot (Restored!Night). He’s a bit of a lost soul, half his corruption/power stripped from him by Dream in an attempt to rebalance the multiverse (which is where my variant of Dream with the tendrils and the skull crack comes from). He still has his gang around, who he continues to protect.

I'm not going to finish this

Something I think would be funny: Nightmare desperately trying to create negativity in the multiverse but everything he does end up creating positivity instead no matter how hard he tries

He destroys the statue of a great figure in the underground ? Turns out that person had a controversy and monsters were looking to take the statue down anyway but didn't have enough money yet

He creates a flood in Hotland with Waterfall's water ? The water end up in a dry field that was dying and can now bloom again thanks to the new lake created by the flood

For once he kills someone ? That person was a dangerous criminal that was heavily wanted but nobody could catch him and would have been sentenced to death anyway

He brings in three henchmen so they can be miserable due to their incompatible personalities ? They become besties and overcome their trauma together

He brings in a fourth one so he would be left out by the first three ? They took him under their wing and for the first time in years he doesn't feel so lonely anymore

Nightmare just tries so hard but it doesn't work and he is pissed

And then one day he gifts someone a pastries and they happen to have an allergy and die

And he doesn't know what to think about it

TW: Kidnapping and involuntary servitude. Dehumanization, both of Killer and Murder (who is dehumanized by both Nightmare and Killer, despite how Killer isn’t aware of/doesn’t much care how he comes off, even if that’s not the intention.)

Hunting, predator/unwilling prey dynamics that is encouraged. Pet/master as well.

Also past hints to previous hunts, starvation as punishment, abuse.

Was thinking about how canon Murder was said to never want to willingly join Nightmare and wouldn’t have any interest in other AUs or ATs outside of his own, and I was thinking about how there’s a canonical Something New timeline where Nightmare just straight up yoinked up Killer and took him into involuntary servitude.

And then I was thinking about these two facts with a Bad Sans Gang AU, and my first thought was “flight risk Murder” and predator/prey dynamics with Murder and Killer (they’re both prey and predator bc Murder is very good at setting traps) and owner/pet dynamics with Nightmare and Killer.

Like, NM is old and ancient and spent some time away from most mortals for quite awhile and Killer didn’t really fight back or attempt to escape him as he yoinked him up, so he assumes it’ll just be the same with Murder.

Only, nope. First mission out and the guy’s making an immediate run for it. Killer has to track him down and drag him back, which presented a surprisingly good challenge because this guy is fast and light on his feet and good at thinking quickly (like Killer). He set up so many various traps or made impromptu ones, he kept Killer on his toes.

This becomes a bit of a routine (no one uses that word around Stage 2 Killer, because then it becomes something to avoid).

Nightmare sends them out, Murder tries to run if he has the energy and Determination, Killer hunts him down with something bordering on amusement and glee.

He’s never hunted another version of himself down quite like this before, and unsurprisingly this leads to moments of squabbling and vicious fighting between Murder and Killer who gets closer and closer to Stage 3 with every hunt. He’s having fun, falling into habit, the thrill of the chase.

They always both come back bloody, beaten, injured, and exhausted, Killer either carrying Murder bridal style or by the scruff of his hoodie, but Killer is uncharacteristically pleased and almost happy to be hunting someone down. (“You fell back into form easy enough, huh. Just like old times, right, partner?”)

Murder is always beyond exhausted and pissed, something bordering on realizing how powerless he actually is when compared to Nightmare (worried he might not ever be able to stop his human because he’ll never get free), and Nightmare is just…endlessly amused.

It’s like watching the cat drag in a mouse to its owner, so he will of course give Killer his well deserved praise and treats. This new behavior is something he hadn’t observed in his weapon yet, and he is admittedly curious.

You’re allowed to rest more today, eat more today. Just make sure to take care of Murder, have him up and ready for the next time. (This is what you’re supposed to do with mortals you don’t want dying on you just yet, right? It seems so tedious..maybe just this one time, just to see what happens.)

Feeling Murder’s anger at Killer, his disgust and discomfort around him (Murder’s embarrassment and humiliation at being wrangled and treated like a pet, even though Killer always takes care of his injuries well just like he does for the cats he adores so much), is like a nice side dish for Nightmare. He can feel Murder’s slowly, ever slowly, dwindling hope; and he assumes it’ll eventually be just like Killer.

That Murder will accept his place, and then will make the best of it, and they’ll all move on from this. Or maybe they’ll keep going but now both his pets will enjoy playing out in the woods or something.

But, no. Murder’s escape attempts begin losing its previous zeal. He’s just doing it because it’s habit now, and not because he thinks he’ll actually get free this time. He causally wanders off, and he spots Killer leaning against a tree like, “so..you come here often?”

He immediately turns around and goes back.

Killer is getting bored and apathetic again, Nightmare can tell. The tingle of “something new” has worn off, Murder is no longer novel. He’s boring and lame now.

But Killer knows he isn’t broken yet. Murder isn’t like him, he can see the spark of defiance and life in those dim eyes. It’s so different from what Killer sees when he dares to catch a glimpse of the reflection in the blade of his knife.

If Murder isn’t broken yet, then he’s just biding time. And Killer can’t wait to see what he does next.

(Who knows. Maybe Killer even does things to attempt to keep Murder’s hope up. Because he wouldn’t be fun if he were just like Killer.) (He doesn’t want anyone becoming like him)

(..of course things would get difficult if Killer starts thinking that Murder could genuinely start escaping him. Hunting someone down brings back memories, feelings, consequences of failure..

Stage 3 will not let this prey get away because no prey means no food means more pain means upset-angry-stomach-body. Pain to stomach and pain to head and pain to bones and soul and disappointment means becoming prey.)

(..eventually, though, it all comes to a head. Maybe Killer finally triggered into Stage 3 and kills Murder in the fight, before it can bring in the prey for observation, proof of having done well.

And maybe this is how Nightmare becomes aware of Stage 3, and is..deeply intrigued about this new side of his weapon. Perhaps this explains why Killer had been behaving oddly, outside of the thrill of something new. Perhaps this wasn’t as new for his killer as Nightmare had thought it was.

The next one they get will be more willing, somehow, someway. “I will get you another friend to play with,” he reassures his killer.)

Dream: Soooo, we're based of you? Does that mean you're my dad

Blue: uuuh....

Ink: Scratch that! Does this mean you go "Mwehehe" when you're happy?

Dream: What?

Ink: I never seen you do that

Blue: GOODNESS ME! DOES THAT MEAN YOUR NOT HAPPY?

Dream: No. I just don't-

Dream, getting tickled by Ink: MWEHEHE-STOP THAT!

The Stars and the Bad Sans staring at Dream, slowly they're turning their heads to Nightmare who is trying to sneak away

Nightmare:

Nightmare: Don't. You. Dare.
