#Chara: *laughs instantly*

[random-autie-fangirl]

I'll take some time to explain why later but this echo flower convo always reminds me of Chara and Asriel

(With Chara being the first speaker and Asriel being the second)

So? Don't you have any wishes to make?

... hmmm, just one, but...

It's kind of stupid.

Don't say that! Come on, I promise I won't laugh.

... hmmm... if I say my wish... You promise you won't laugh at me?

Of course I won't laugh!

Someday, I'd like to climb this mountain we're all buried under.

Standing under the sky, looking at the world all around... That's my wish.

(You hear laughter.)

... hey, you said you wouldn't laugh at it!

Sorry, it's just funny...

That's my wish, too.

DEDICATING A GOAL TO YOU — ITOSHI SAE

.°⊹ tags / warnings : sfw, pro football player sae, established relationship, paparazzi, 0.5k+, not proofread as always

a/n : was about to make this a multi chara hcs thingie but eventually decided to post them separately not bc im lazy or anything >.< more will come soon ! ( i hope — i have them all ready in my head, i promise ! )

dating sae — one of the best football players all around the globe with looks that dangerously wounded the hearts of many, was taxing. the world had its eyes on him both inside and outside the field. and sae was a private man, especially outside the field — and especially when it was about you. he rarely spoke about his personal life when confronted during interviews. the only exception (more of an accident, really) being that one time he was asked by an interviewer about his ideal girl and he just blurted out ‘i’m already dating her’.

no more was revealed about your relationship despite the bazillion questions that instantly followed his confession. of course, the news broke the hearts of millions of fans across the world. and fans, along with the already nosy paparazzi, can do a better job than the FBI. within just a week your identity was revealed. the world had gotten its hands on the mysterious girl dating the genius footballer itoshi sae.

footages of you together were leaked into social media and the magazines. you were the hottest topic and prying eyes were following your every step. shortly after rumors started spreading. since little was known about the essence of your relationship, fake news began to fill the magazine pages and the internet — that sae was spotted leaving a bar with another girl, leaving the house of another, or the car of another, or that you got fed up with his affairs and left the country but then came back to renew your passport and got back together. according to the fake news you’d broken up a total of 13 times and the best yet — sae was already married to a woman, older than him, in spain and had twins.

all of this meddling was a constant, even after 2 years into your relationship. you somehow learned to laugh it off or not even bring it up. you had your shit together. but still, it put a certain amount of pressure on you both. especially during moments so precious you wanted to keep them to yourself only, away from prying eyes. and with sae’s current popularity status it was nearly unachievable. even abroad you could never be truly just the two of you, alone. which was why sae, unfortunately, was forced to propose to you at home. over a can of coke and pizza.

but this time the news was delivered by itoshi sae himself — during a nail-biting finale, a last minute goal leading the team to victory and scored by none other than the genius sae who didn’t waste a second and kissed the engagement ring on his finger, eyes closed, features on his face softer than ever, just like all the times his lips would crash into yours. as if that tiny object wrapped around his finger held part of you inside. it felt so good to carry you so close, even during a match, he smiled through the kiss. just like every single time he did with you. yea. it felt so good. this, my love, is for you — you could almost feel his unspoken words vibrate on your lips.

soon after these intimate seconds where, despite the stadium being crowded — it was just you and him, sae sent another message, a warning if you will, with a single look as cold as absolute zero, at the camera zooming in on him : no more prying on what’s mine.

LEONA KINGSCHOLAR

— “leona… pspsps….”

— he hums gruffly when his name was called the first time, only opening his eye thinking you called him a second time when it was really just noise that you would make to get the attention of a house cat. he instantly pins his ears back. how dare you. “hmm?”

— “so i took our snail for a walk and i had accidentally left my feet here to wash the dishes because the grass was blue.”

— huh? you could see him trying to process everything you just said as you explained, his lips parting and eyebrows furrowing. it took everything in you not to laugh. he does one of those blinks, the really delayed ones, one eye opens before the other…

— he’s half asleep too so the confusion is just adding up altogether. if chicken scratch wasn’t a writing term, this is literally it in words. its like the books back at home he picks up to read (derogatory) its, what, 4 am? dont do this to him😭

— you’ve never seen him so expressive���� this definitely makes his eye and ear twitch at the same time. what type of fucked up fever dream is this?? its usually a blessing seeing you as the first thing he wakes up to, not when you wake him up with some bull strung up in a sentence with your beady eyes staring at him while he sleeps. he loves you, yes, but what does he even say to this…

— “what…”

— your forehead met with his chest as you struggled not to laugh at the uncharacteristic break in leona’s voice. how many cups of coffee did you drink? he asks you to repeat yourself even though it kinda a mind mush decision so you did and by the end of it, he looks absolutely restless.

— “that’s… yes. that’s great, herbivore. can we go to bed now?”

— you note that leona is surprisingly patient when half asleep

┏━━━━━━ ━ ─ ╴⋯ ⟢

JACK HOWL

— deep sleeper. tug his ear. though he practically springs up before your hand makes contact, giving himself whiplash.

— “jack?”

— almost instantly relaxes when he realizes its you, tail wagging subtly☹️ “hi, baby. s’something wrong?”

— “hiii, do you remember a year ahead ago when i had to go to the dentist to get my spine fixed and the cats were barking at the flying dogs because the sky was in the water?”

— bro feels like he just had a stroke💀 he’s blinking rapidly, rubbing nose bridge as you explain. he really wants to understand, he does, but wtf did you just say??? it was the innocent “hi” before you unapologetically bashed his head in with the entire dictionary. its so ridiculous he couldn’t help but laugh.

— “jack, this is serious.” even as you told him that, your voice was not steady at all which made his shoulders shake violently in silent laughter.

— “im listening, i swear. tell me one more time?” yk his ass is not listening. he pulls you into his lap while his thumbs idly rubbed your sides, responding to your stories with “uh-huh” and “yeah?” with a lovesick smile on his face.

— eventually holds your face and starts pressing heart squeezing, fluffy kisses all over your face which truly made you more tired then you were. you honestly start forgetting what and where the story was going.

— jack only pauses his kissing attack to respond when you take a small break but even then he doesn’t pull away fully, he’s just speaking against your skin

— “—and the duck had my arm while i was taking it on a walk because gran tammy was in a flying shopping cart.”

— “oh wow. and then?”

— he’s listening but he’s not, mostly because he’s like two seconds away from dreamland and his brain isn’t registering half the shit you’re saying. he wants to see how many stories you can jumble up.

— “yeah, i think it’s bedtime for us…”

┏━━━━━━ ━ ─ ╴⋯ ⟢

RUGGIE BUCCHI

— omfg he wakes up like a mom. like yk how you would barely touch them and they would gasp like they were just given cpr?? he wakes up like that.

— and you’re just standing there awkwardly 👁️👁️

— takes a quick look around before looking at you. “what happened? is it time to wake up leona already?” you shake your head and ruggie flops back, an arm draped over his eyes. “you scared me… come, lay down with me?” he held his free arm out for you and you did take your place cozied up against his side. to your surprise, you did actually scare the living shit out of him from how fast his heart was racing.

— “ruggie, yk i just found out you’re related to turtles, right? and i had to take uncle bobby to the vet to get a dna test because the fish drowned in air.”

— slow roblox turn towards you but instead its his head as he cranes it down to stare at you. you can practically hear the gears in his head turning and you literally could not look at him or you’d blow your cover.🧍🏾

— “i’m sorry,, what the fuck??”

— he’s genuinely confused, asking you questions about your story while his brain tries to put together the pieces. each question he asks, the more its harder to speak in full sentences other than wheezes

— “what are you laughing at, ya little shit? explain this to me!”

— “i’m trying!”

— and you are😭 its like when you have to explain the family tree really slow bc you cant say, “my father’s girlfriend’s son” without him like ???? and you’re trying to explain it to him slowly, eventually forgetting what you said in the first place…

— “…and the fish drowned in air.”

— “yes.”

— “sweetheart, you still haven’t explained how i’m related to turtles—”

ITOSHI SISTER AND TRYING TO SNEAK ISAGI OUT? you are getting caught

sworn secrecy | i. yoichi.

✮ tags ; fem!reader(referred to as little sister but otherwise no gendered language), little sister itoshi (rin / sae are your big brothers), boyfriend!isagi, aged-up charas, use of honorfics for rin / sae (sae-nii / rin-nii), sneaking out, very silly. not nsfw but it's there implicitly

✮ wc ; 2k

✮ a/n ; have had bad writers block but this was a lot of fun.

✮ synopsis ; rin has made it very clear that isagi is strictly off-limits. you are not very good at listening.

It's a miracle you haven't died.

Isagi sits on the edge of your bed, wet hair and shirtless while watching Youtube videos while you stare outside of the window of your bedroom. Both of your brothers cars are still parked into the driveway.

You're screwed, actually. There's no hope for you anymore. You freeze as you hear footsteps in the hallway, shooting Isagi a look. He shrugs at you, a sly grin on his face. Unbothered and amused by the entire situation.

He's not going to be any help either it seems. You step away and crawl over to him in distress, throwing yourself into his lap. He drops his phone on side of the bed with a laugh, as you sit your knees on either side of his thighs.

His hand goes instantly to rest on the small of your back, knocking his forehead to yours. He has the audacity to giggle at you.

"Yoichi," You bemoan, clinging onto him for comfort even though he's most of the problem "How can you laugh in these conditions? Do you know how fucked I am?"

He gives you a wry grin "Well in a way,"

You hit him softly for the crass comment before clinging onto his shoulder. Isagi holds you comfortably, kissing whatever part of your shoulder you can reach. He traces little patterns into your skin, and you let yourself lean into the touch because you're unsure of when the next time will be if either of you happen to get caught.

"Yoichi," You whine again, frustrated and huffing "If Rin-nii catches me he's going to kill me."

He has the nerve to laugh.

"He'll be pissed but he's not gonna say anything to you. He's gonna kick my ass though."

"That's what I'm worried about, you dummy."

"Aw, you're worried about me? Hm? My baby is worried about me?"

Isagis coaxing helps soften your nerves even though it's not fixing the problem. You giggle quietly at the feeling of his lips on your neck and decide you're going to see him again at all costs.

It's a bad situation to be in. Surprisingly, while both of your older brothers are protective of you - Rin is the most strict about why you're not allowed to date his friends. Sae is a lot more lax about it, maybe because he's the oldest with the worst tendency of spoiling you. The only person he refuses to let you get involved with is Oliver and Shidou - but he doesn't particularly care about his other teammates if you're interested.

Rin, on the other hand, has been very verbal about you dating his teammates. A strict no on all of them, every last one - even the good and nice guys like gorilla-king Barou or Musclehead Kunigami. Chigiri is off-limits, Bachira is definitely off-limits, and the list goes on and on.

Of all of them though, Rin has a special disdain for the boy currently sitting half-naked in your bed after having sex with you the night before.

"If I ever catch that fucking freak looking at you, I'll kill him. You're not allowed to date Isagi ever."

When you were a little younger and it mattered to you more - you did try to stay away from them altogether. As the team went pro and Isagi came around more often to practice or bother Rin, the more difficult this ask became.

Isagi is two years older than you, and he's always been so nice to you. You'd only started speaking to him recently. He's attentive and charismatic, and awkward in an attractive way. All of that along with how he is when he plays - nauseatingly arrogant and cocky and so impossibly sexy made in impossible to stay away.

He wasn't always so tempting. But as of a few months ago, you couldn't take his eyes off him. So, at a party and away from your brothers view - you came onto him. He was even nice enough to try and stop you since he probably knew the outcome.

But your crush was only growing in size and you were determined to fuck him at least. So fuck him you did. You'd half been expecting your brothers gloom and doom to come true. You thought you'd wake up to an empty bed and no phone number - figure out why he'd always been so adamant on it.

Your bed was empty, but Isagi wasn't gone, he was making breakfast - grinning at you as you padded downstairs. You realized later that you'd be wiped down and changed sometime in the middle of the night. Turns out Isagi had his eyes on you for a long time, but per Rin's insanity decided not to approach. And now that you'd gone this far, he was determined to keep you.

Bridges burned, you started dating in secrecy. The only person who knows is Bachira. You kind of think Sae found out months ago, but chose not to let it slip. He just occasionally gives you knowing glances and tells you to be safe more often than not.

It's been 6-months and the two of you have been so careful. Isagi is mostly careful for your sake. He's told you more than once that he doesn't care who knows, even if it's Rin.

But you know your brother, and how fucking deranged he tends to be about stuff like this. So you've been sneaking around, doing home-dates or long-drives to avoid things that are too public and it's worked. You've been extra careful when you bring Isagi home - usually choosing to stay at his place.

Rin isn't supposed to be here. He went on a daytrip with his team for some photoshoot and was supposed to be home tomorrow. Sae was supposed to be in the gym. Now they're both at home, and Isagi is sitting in your bed while you're covered in hickies.

And you have not the slightest fucking idea how you're going to get him the hell out without being caught.

"I'm worried Rin-nii is going to fist-fight you." You say sincerely. Isagi laughs.

"I forgot he almost got into with Shidou. And Sae."

You sigh a deep sigh as Isagi rubs a circle into your back.

"I love you," You say with another frown.

"I love you too. Stop worrying so much. It'll be fine."

"You're only saying that because you don't know how much Rin lectured me about you specifically."

"Me specifically? Seriously? Am I that much of a villain to that guy?"

You laugh a little wetly "Yeah, kinda."

"Damn. Tough crowd.'

You both sit together in silence for a minute before sighing.

"Do you think I should enlist Sae-niis help?"

Isagi gives you a confused look. "I thought he didn't know?"

"I never told him but," You shrug sheepishly "Pretty sure he figured it out."

Isagi gives you a little kiss on the cheek "If you trust him, I trust him. We don't talk much but he seems cool to me."

You nod a little before grabbing your phone from next to Isagi - pulling back as you look for Sae's contact.

(sent 11:34am) : my beloved flesh and blood you know i love you with my whole heart yes.

from sae-nii (sent 11:34am) : how much money do you need? (sent 11:34 am) : no no its not that this time.

(sent 11:35 am) : uhm. isagi is in my room. and i need to sneak him out so rin doesn't see. help me. please please please. from sae-nii (sent 11:38 am) : ... you're such an idiot.

from sae-nii (sent 11:39am) : ill distract him. come down in 5 minutes exactly. and don't do this stupid shit again. im not helping you next time. (sent 11:40 am) : thank u i love you ur the best ever. favorite midfielder in the world.

You moan a sigh of relief as you drop your head onto Isagi's shoulder.

"Sae-nii is helping us. We're saved. Didn't even ask about anything."

"We'll have to make it up to him sometime." Isagi offers. You nod emphatically. You're sure he's going to interrogate you later but it won't be nearly as bad.

"We only have 5 minutes. I'll help you get your stuff."

"Thanks baby."

In 5 minutes, you help Isagi get dressed, pack of his stuff in the drawstring bag he brought with him, and give him a few kisses goodbye. You get a text at 11:44 on the dot saying Rin will be distracted for a little and to head down.

Your door creeks as you poke your head down, looking both ways before opening it completely and letting Isagi out. He does the same gesture as the two of you quietly make your down the stairs, Isagi's hand in yours as you trail behind him.

When you're finally downstairs, Sae is waiting at the end of the steps with a very unimpressed expression. You give him a look of gratitude, and he merely shakes his head. You're feeling especially lucky today.

Isagi comes all the way down and you stand next to him. Sae puts a hand on his shoulder and leans in.

"I called an Uber. It'll be waiting at the 7/11 on the corner..." A slight pause "Treat her well or I'll ruin your entire career."

Isagi swallows awkwardly.

"Y-yeah, of course."

Sae gives a satisfied nod before looking at you "I'll talk to you later."

"Yeah, got it. Thank you nii-san." You reply. He softens before shaking his head.

"Go say your goodbyes outside. The Uber will be there soon and he still has to walk down there."

You usher Isagi outside, mouthing one last thank you to your brother before gently shutting the door behind you. Finally at your front door, you get a good look at your boyfriend under the early morning sun.

You give him a long hug, squeezing him tight as the wind passes by. He returns to the gesture, smiling in a goofy way as he pulls away from you.

"Stop looking so sad, baby." He reaches for you, cupping your cheek in his palm as he rubs his thumb underneath your eyes "I'll see you again soon, yeah."

You nod. You really don't want to part with him. Strangely the whole fiasco is only making you feel more fond. You hum, then sigh - giggling a bit.

"Mm, okay. Thanks for being you. Sorry your in-laws are insane."

"In-laws? Oh, am I getting proposed to first? That won't do."

"Stop that, I'm kidding."

"I'm not," He says with a light laugh "Let me win the World Cup first once though." He pulls your hand to his lips, kissing your ring finger and feeling for the size. You flush.

"Stop being so romantic and go home."

He laughs a little again, kissing your hairline and temple before kissing you once on the lips.

"Message received. I'll text you. Love you. Bye baby."

"Bye,"

You part with one last kiss, watching as Isagi walks down the sidewalk and disappears around the corner without looking back. A wave of relief passes over you but you'd soon find out how short-lived the moment would truly be.

You feel your phone buzz in your pocket.

from sae-nii ( sent 11:57 am) : i tried to keep him from going outside but he..

The message cuts off as a sense of dread fills your stomach. You turn around slowly only to see Rin at the window, fuming.

Oh, you're so absolutely screwed.

__

AFTERMATH.

Isagi slides into the Uber with a heavy sigh, before sliding his phone open. A flood of messages awaits him all from the same time. Some from you opening with an apology - more from Rin that are a variety of threats.

He starts laughing in the back of the Uber, barely able to contain himself.

from evil twin (sent 11:56 am) : im gonna fucking murder you.

from evil twin (sent 11:56 am) : i already told her. no you especially. im gonna fucking flay you as soon as i see you.

Isagi laughs as he types back a reply, shutting his phone after putting his airpods in and playing music.

sent 12:08 pm : looking forward to family dinner otouto

Cw: Killer x Reader, suggestive (?), but it is mostly fluff, Killer stage 2, actions against his soul (is all for science!), he kinda doesn't care though, we all like oblivious Reader… 

Notes: This was an ask for my other account, but I liked the result so much that I decided to post it here too!

Killer never thought anyone could hold his soul so gently — not after Chara’s suffocating embrace or Nightmare’s brutal treatment. 

His soul is familiar with pain, emptiness, death. But kindness? He’s never felt it — or at least, he doesn’t recall ever feeling it. His smile wavers just a bit when you softly squeeze his soul between your fingers.

“I'm sorry…” you whisper in that pretty voice of yours, but Killer isn't focused on your words, no. Instead, he's focused on your face: on your furrowed eyebrows, on the curiosity in your eyes, on the slight parting of your lips... He finds your expression quite  amusing.

Normal beings were scared, disgusted, and uncomfortable around him because of his soul — something that shouldn’t be outside his ribs, especially with its round shape and dripping. But curiosity like yours? Few possess that.

However, you weren’t just curious. You were just like him. 

You wanted to experience it; touch it, squeeze it, feel it, maybe even step on it, tear it, bite it… He’d done all of that before just to see how much his soul could endure.

He shivers again, this time because of your caress between the red circles that form his soul like a funny target. Killer can’t resist teasing you with some dreadful remarks.

"Want to taste it? Want to sink your teeth into the small circle in the middle? I promise you I wouldn’t feel a thing…" he says, his smile widening as you bring it closer to your mouth.

It’s true; even if you bit with all your strength, he wouldn’t feel a thing. Maybe he’d experience a shockwave coursing through his body, so fast that it nearly turns him to dust. But that’s just a physical reaction — emotional responses? Killer doesn’t experience those. He doesn’t need to.

.

.

.

You kissed it. 

You gently press your lips to his soul in a single, careful kiss. No one has ever done this before, and the results are fascinating. 

Killer's bones tremble against each other as his magic makes beads of sweat form on his body. He can feel himself panting from the intense wave that washes over him, but it’s not a wave of shock or pain.

It was something warm, like a gentle breeze on a summer day. Perhaps your intention was conveyed through the kiss — passing into his soul and through his being like a Cupid’s arrow. He can feel kindness, concern, curiosity, and bravery. Were you… feeling all of that just from holding his soul?

When he looks at you, Killer almost instantly notices the new color on your lips: a bright, vibrant red — his determination now adorned on your lips like some kind of lip gloss. He also notices the same color on your hands.

His soul continues to drip, tainting everything around it — including you and the floor. Its shape begins to deform, the sides quivering and stretching. 

You lick your lips before humming as you taste it. It seems you enjoy the flavor of his soul.

"I thought it would have a specific flavor, but it tastes like... I don’t know, something bitter? It’s sweet too, but essentially bitter." You begin to lick your fingers as you savor it, "It’s not bad — really, it’s not bad at all."

Killer feels his eye sockets quiver and his black tears stop falling. He hasn’t stopped panting yet, and red sweat still drips from his forehead.

“It’s not poisoning, right? I should have asked before– I didn’t know you had any light in your eye.” You said, surprised, your eyes now fixed on him.

He, as surprised as you, glances down at his soul, seeing it in an upside-down heart shape. Killer laughs bitterly, feeling a strange, tingling sensation in his bones as he meets your gaze. He can also feel his cheekbones flushing from how intently you are observing him.

“Heh, neither did I.” Despite his nonchalant tone, you notice his tail giving a little wag. He is clearly pleased with the results of your test with his soul.

“Can I bite it now?”

“No.” He cuts you off. If your gentle kiss had such an impact on him, he doesn’t want to imagine what a bite would do — at least not in his current state.

“Just a little nibble?”

“Sorry, kid, not this time~”

[qininqinin]

If it's not a big ask then, could you do something Killer and his soul related however you want to interpret that. Fine if you don't wanna huhu... (⁠´⁠∩⁠｡⁠•⁠ ⁠ᵕ⁠ ⁠•⁠｡⁠∩⁠`⁠) shahssjsjs

Bloody kiss

Going trick-or-treating with chara

Halloween post #5

Pairing: female chara dreemurr x gn reader

Summary:Frisk managed to convince chara to celebrate Halloween and go trick-or-treating with her. She did it by promising her 2 things:free chocolate and getting to spend time with you

A/n:The headcanon that chara loves chocolate is one I've seen around a lot, and it's really adorable, so I'm keeping it for my version of her

"This is so dumb"

"Don't say that, chara, it's gonna be fun"

It was Halloween, and Frisk decided to celebrate the holiday by doing a classic:trick-or-treating. Even if the monsters probably didn't know about it, she still wanted the three humans in the underground to celebrate

While convincing you was pretty easy, because you wanted to have fun too, trying to get chara to participate was harder. She didn't really see the point and called the tradition stupid, but after telling her she could have a lot of free chocolate (and be with you), she agreed even if reluctantly

"What's with the costume anyway?"

"Hm? What do you mean? You told me to wear this"

"I told you to dress up as a devil. You put on some plastic horns and called it a day, that's barely a costume"

"I don't need a costume, I'm already a demon basically, and what about you, you just cut a hole into a sheet and used it as a shirt, put on fake wings and a halo......wait now that I'm thinking about it, why are we matching? Shouldn't I be matching with y/n? They're my partner"

"Ohhhh, you wanna see them that badly?"

Chara blushed and raised her voice at frisk

"S-shut up, I was just asking"

"Suuuuuure anyway they should be here any mome-"

"Hey babe, hi frisk"

Your arrival made both of the girls smile (even if chara's was a bit more subtle) and wave at you

"Hey y/n, chara couldn't wait to see you, she wanted to-"

"I already told you shut up.....hey y/n....n-nice costume by the way"

"Oh, thanks, yours is nice too"

The red eyed girl gave a smug look at her friend while smiling more at you

"Oooook, let's go now. Everyone has their basket, right?"

You two nodded as frisk grinned

"Wonderful, ok everyone, we're gonna have the best trick-or-treating the underground has ever seen"

"Probably the only one"

"A-anyway, we're gonna get so many candies! Let's start"

You three went to different houses to trick-or-treat and actually got quite a lot of sweets, mainly because of chara terrifying every monster into giving her chocolate despite frisk constantly telling her not to

"I gotta admit, that was pretty fun, I should have listened to you from the start frisk"

".....do you think it was fun just because you got to scare everyon with your face"

"What about it? Isn't the whole point of Halloween fear?"

"....I guess"

"And it was because of chara that we got so many candies, so I'd say it was worth it. Thanks, babe,"

"See y/n gets it"

"Whatever, let's just go back home"

You went there and sprinted past toriel to your bedroom where you sat on the bed and emptied your baskets on it

"OK, so should we trade?"

"GIVE ME ALL THE CHOCOLATE!!"

without warning, chara instantly grabbed every single chocolate bar and chocolate flavored sweet that was there before unwrapping one of them and starting to eat it

".......I should have expected that. Well, I guess we can trade the non chocolate stuff between ourselves y/n"

You did just that and ate the candies you got until chara approached you with a bar of chocolate in her hand

"H-hey, I'm full, and this was leftover so....... wanna share?

"Oh~ chara sharing chocolate, I didn't think that was possible, I guess that's what love does, though,"

Chara simply glared at frisk while you laughed and snapped the bar in half, giving yourself a piece

"Sure, I like chocolate almost as much as you, so thanks"

"Don't mention it"

You and chara ate the bar while smiling at each other. When you finished, you looked at her and kissed her cheek, which made her blush a lot and caused frisk to laugh again

"W-what was that for?"

"What? So I can't kiss my girlfriend now?"

"N-no, I'm not saying that just-"

She suddenly pulled you closer to her and kissed you passionately on the lips, making you melt into the moment

"If you want to kiss me, commit to it"

"Sure thing, sorry......you taste like chocolate"

"Is that a bad thing?"

"No it's still delicious, just like your regular kisses"

"Good"

She hugged you, pulling you closer to her once again

"Happy Halloween.......love"

"Happy Halloween to you too sweetie"

Theory: Chara's motivations

lucabicono submitted to nochocolate:

I recently found this blog and got drawn back in to reading theories and speculations, and after reading a few, I noticed a common thread that I never had before, connecting a lot of elements regarding the narrative of Undertale, Chara's behavior and motivations, and the significance of the Goner/Gaster characters: the idea of being forgotten. I'm not sure if anyone else has pointed any of this out, but I wanted to submit it for consideration. I also haven't come up with any theories of my own in a long time, and my knowledge of the inner workings and unique scenarios (fun values, kill count changes, etc.) present in Undertale is elementary at best, so I figured you might be better at piecing this together and seeing if it holds water at all.

First off, the obvious connection to the idea of being forgotten, or rather, the concept of memory. The game itself remembers the actions of the player, even in new games and fresh resets, but it doesn't simply stop with the game. Characters like Sans and Flowey obviously either know about previous playthroughs, or at least have some awareness of them. Even Frisk is implied if not outright stated to have some recollection between runs; Toriel's comment that they look like they've "seen a ghost" if the player kills her and then reloads a previous save, and Frisk outright telling Asgore how many times he's killed them.

Another pretty obvious connection is with the Goner characters, specifically Gaster and his followers. Gaster himself was completely erased, past present and future; forgotten by existence. The only people remaining who know about him (aside from, implicitly, Sans) are characters like the Goner Kid, whose entire spiel is about "a world world where everything is exactly the same...except you don't exist", or essentially "a world that has forgotten you". The Goner Kid also asks for the player to forget about them when bringing them an umbrella.

And there are plenty of other allusions to the idea of being forgotten, and having the world move on without you. For example, the Echo Flower that Flowey speaks into says the following: "She'll find another kid, and instantly forget about you." This also ties into the game’s overall theme of letting go.

Having read the theory on here regarding how Chara's influence is tied to number of kills and how the player isn't necessarily corrupting them, as well as the theory surrounding the use of the “*...” dialogue, I began thinking, what exactly is Chara's motivation? Because just having them be a demon or whatever is boring.

Could Chara be motivated at least partially by a fear of being forgotten?

It would explain their hatred of Toriel during a genocide route, who took in fallen child after fallen child even after their passing. It would explain how they're able to one-shot Mettaton NEO despite his monster soul being protected by his robot body; the fountain having possibly been made in to celebrate Chara's arrival having been altered to instead honor Mettaton. I would explain why Chara makes sure to remind the player of the consequences of the genocide route in a soulless pacifist run. It would explain why, even when the player is on a neutral or true pacifist run and they have no soul of their own and basically no influence, Chara is still Determined to let the player know that they're there through things like flavor text ("You laugh and keep laughing", "All you can do is FIGHT", etc).

Given how prevalent the concept of being forgotten by the world is, as well as Chara implicitly wanting to become the angel to "free" the monsters, and how their/the player's in-game theme is quite literally "Megalovania", I think it's entirely possible that they would find the idea of being forgotten terrifying.

Finally Home…

*music plays*

*Shift!Chara looks at Data then at his hand… She still wasn’t sure if she could trust him… But there was one way she could… She pulled her glove off… Trembling… Not wanting to do this, She only used it when anyone committed a crime in order to solve who was guilty, her judge ability. Touching anyone would allow her to FEEL the tiniest of emotions even filled with sin. She slowly reached out to Data’s hand… And as she touched it she felt… nothing… not the slightest thing… but it wasn’t a scary nothing… it was like… a calm nothing… Like an open field of grassy plain… She looks up at Data and as the wind blew off her hood. She felt something she had not felt in a long time… Relief… And…. A new found Determination… As the muck from soul… melted away*

*music at 0:23*

*As She stared at Data’s gentle smile. He held her hand decided to walk her back home, Shift!Chara did not move for a sec but she let Data take her hand, the calming feeling washing over her. As if all the stress she had was washed away. As they got home She yanked her hand away feeling nervous… She wasn’t sure what he would do… but… for once… She would let things play out… As Data knocked the door Toriel came to welcome them back. But Data decided to tell Toriel about EVERYTHING… As they went in Data told Toriel about who Shift!Chara was, Frisk and Chara coming in to listen. He explained what had happened to her, what she lost, and how she lost hope. Shift!Chara looked down, she didn’t expect he would tell her everything, she would’ve stopped him but she still worried… He thankfully didn’t tell her about what she did to Frisk and Chara…She still felt guilty as she sat there on the couch… Before she could even pull up her hood. Toriel hugged her… Her eyes widened as the mother held the Human woman close petting her head. Eyes teary as she felt so sad for what Shift!Chara went through… As Shift!Chara stared in shock by the reaction. Frisk, Data, Chara, And Toriel made Shift!Chara as comfortable as they could, Frisk giving her their soft blanket, Chara giving her a stashed Choco bar, Data giving her a glass of iced water, and Toriel giving her cinnamon butterscotch pie.

*As she felt even more comfort and relief tears welled in her eyes. Toriel decided to cheer her up perhaps she could call over the others to help her feel more welcomed. And so she did. First one to appear were Alphys and Undyne, who by the which lunged at Chara thinking she caused Frisk Chara and Data's injuries Alphys told her about what happed. However after being held back by Data and Alphys while explaining who or what she is. Undyne instantly apologized and hugged her, only for the door to be kicked down with a familiar pink booted metal leg, Mettaton spinning in all hearts and sunshine. Aswell as bringing treats for the poor human who lost their home and Family. Papyrus came next with his battle body backwords due to him rushing to get it on to visit. Sans teleported next to Shift!Chara who was startled seeing the former king or who she thought was the king sit next to her making a few puns. As Papyrus yelled at him to get his muddy shorts off the couch Toriel and the others laughed while Data slowly explained to everyone one by one, Shift!Chara looked up and saw one more familiar face show up... Her dad... Asgore... At least.... A different version of her dad. She saw that the two dreemurrs were not truly on good terms but they discussed what had happened to her and what the plans were. Asgore said he can clear a room for her at his place if Toriel would like to let her stay with him. She rejected saying she can handle it quite coldly. He didn't argue. Frisk and Chara felt bad seeing that and talked to them to clear up the negativity.... Shift!Chara watched as Toriel sat next to her... She watched all these monsters humans and what nots interact. Laughing, arguing and discussing what to do to help her....

*Music at 2:37*

*As she looked at the scene in front of her.... All these familiar faces... She had a flash where instead of these different people..... She saw.... Everyone she lost.... as if... they had never died... no... they did die.... and yet... they lived on.... as these strangers in another world... She felt... something she felt like when she was in her old world.... a feeling she had not felt.... in such a long time....*

*She felt.... like she was finally... Home....*

*The monsters and two small humans crowded around her as she finally let every bit of her emotions out... Despite everything... She felt like she had finally come home... Home wasn't a place or people or even a building.... Home.... Was a feeling of belonging.... a place to take you in.... and do its best to care for you.... Home... Is in the heart... The soul... that houses your being... And as the shadows around her soul disappear the scene slowly fades as the weeping ends.... Despite her life being played with like a toy... This strange world... has taken her in... and now... she can truly start living again... and finally... start healing aswell...*

*music ends*

Soulweaver Part_1

In this world two races rule over this earth. Humans and Monsters.

The Humans had powers far beyond that of what Monsters had and the monsters wanted it.

But they couldn’t obtain it because the power came from the soul.

8 Human souls

Determination, Bravery, Justice, Kindness, Patience, Integrity, Perseverance, Curiousity

So the monsters attempted to replicate these powers and by doing so they’ve created 8 of the most powerful Monsters ever in an attempt to aid them in a potential war between humans and monsters

Not so long ago

202X

"Chara… I don't think it's safe," a young child sat on a stump next to an old, long-abandoned mineshaft. "What if the rumors of Monsters are real?"

"Stop being such a baby," a second child was playing near the entrance of the mines on an old abandoned minecart. "Besides, humans are stronger than monsters."

"That doesn't make this any less dangerous. Monsters have a kind of magic we don't have."

"And that's IF they're even down here. They're just rumors, remember?"

"Well… my mom said she saw a large skeleton walk down there the other day."

"A few things. Your mom watches too many fantasy dramas. They probably imagined it." Chara grabbed a stick from the ground and whacked it against a tree. "Skeletons aren't monsters. They're inside us, silly!" The stick broke after a second swing. So they picked up another one and whacked it firmly again. "And besides… my mom says otherwise."

"What did they say?"

Nothing but silence and the sound of a stick whacking against a tree were heard.

"Well?"

"I already said it."

"What?"

"She's dead, remember? So she couldn't have said anything." Chara started laughing because they tricked Frisk. But Frisk wasn't laughing.

"You have twisted humor…"

"Hey, it's better to laugh than cry, isn't it?" They playfully punched Frisk in the shoulder and then jumped in the cart. "So are you coming or not?"

"It's not safe."

"Well then, can you give me a push?" They tilted their head to the side and made a pleading face.

"It's your funeral…"

Frisk pushed the cart slightly and immediately saw the fear in Chara's face.

There was supposed to be a rock to stop me. This was meant to just be another one of Chara's jokes not meant to actually move. But the cart slowly started going downhill, and the fear in Chara's eyes must have shown. Because Frisk's eyes mirrored the exact same fear.

It was a paralyzing fear to see your best friend suddenly afraid for what seemed to be no reason. They asked for this, yet when it happened, they seemed to instantly regret it. Frisk reached out to stop it but couldn't hold on, and as it kept going, it only got faster. But Frisk wasn't strong enough to stop it. So they could only let go. I'm sorry.

Chara's eyes widened when Frisk stopped trying to help and just stood there looking very apologetic and terrified.

Frisk got smaller and smaller as the cart went further and further down the hill. And then the tracks were no longer under Chara.

They were falling down.

- - - - - - - - - - - - -

"Sans, I don't understand the point of this. Why are we going through these old mines today? I'd rather be in Cavedin than here."

Sans was a tired Skeleton, simply living out his life. He never had an answer for Papyrus when this happened; he always tried to think of one. But he knew there was no point because what happened next made Papyrus forget every time.

A loud crash was heard from down the cave, startling some bats. "Nyeh!!" Papyrus jumped up in shock and immediately rushed toward the sound to see what it was.

"Always the heroic type, aye Paps?" Sans walked calmly to where they heard the noise.

"SANS!" Papyrus shouted. When Sans got there, he looked down the cliff. "IT'S A HUMAN!"

Sans smiled for a second at his brother's enthusiasm and nodded. "I think they're hurt."

The human had a minecart on top of their arm and was pulling at it, trying to free themselves from underneath the overturned metal cart.

"Uh, HUMAN! I wouldn't do that if I were you! Lucky for you, I'm here to help!" He leaped down and stuck his hand out, making the minecart glow orange. As soon as the human nudged their arm again, the minecart started slowly lifting in that direction, as if the inertia never left and gravity had no effect. The moment the minecart was up, the human bolted, grabbed a rock, and tried throwing it at Papyrus's head. Before it made contact, it started to glow blue and flew in a different direction, smashing against a wall.

Sans stood atop the cliff, glaring down at the human.

"Human, we don't want to hurt you. Your arm, is it alright?"

"M… my arm?" The voice was trembling and afraid, eyes wide. Oh god… monsters are real… The large skeleton loomed over, offering his hand. Nothing about them seemed harmful, yet everything in Chara was telling them to run. "I… It's fine…"

"Mind if I take a look? We can take you to a health expert in Cavedin to make sure, but if your bone is broken, then you're very lucky! I happen to be a bone expert!" He seemed prideful for making that joke.

Chara sighed, knowing there wasn't much they could do. They were defenseless. "Sure…" They sighed; however, fear still coursed through their mind.

Papyrus knelt down. Chara's arm started to glow orange and then felt painful. "This is definitely not good…" Summoning two bones from his other hand, he placed them on each side of Chara's arm and then took his Bandana off and wrapped it around the bone tightly. "I used my magic to move the bone into place, but… to make it heal faster, we'll need to take you to a medical expert!"

Chara looked at the improvised splint and flinched when they tried to lift their arm. Clearly more than just this was broken. And as they lay still, they slowly realized how much they actually were in pain. And it was a miracle they even survived. "I… I can't walk…"

"Oh. Hm… don't worry. I can help!" He used some magic, and Chara was now glowing orange. "It is very important that you do not move." He turned to the cliff. "SANS, GET READY TO INTERCEPT!"

Sans rolled his eyes and sat up. "Ready, Paps."

"This may feel weird. But it's safe." Papyrus nudged Chara just a bit relatively toward Sans, and Chara started flying only in that direction. Then suddenly they were glowing blue now and frozen in the air. Then flung toward the other Skeleton before being gently set down next to a stalactite.

"Huh. You got hurt this time? Didn't use your Determination to save ya?"

"What?" Chara was confused. "Determination?"

"Don't play dumb with me. You tried that before. Didn't work."

"Wh- what do you mean?"

"You promised you wouldn't come back down here." Sans looked furious, and Chara's neck glowed blue as it was pinned against the wall. "After all those timelines… even after you made your promise… you don't care? Still haven't had your fun?" Sans got closer. His eyes burning blue. "If it wasn't for that damn Determination, I'd kill you right now, Frisk."

"F- Frisk?" Chara was confused. How did this skeleton know Frisk? "I…

 I'm Chara."

Sans looked angry for a second or two, then relieved as the blue glow and pressure left Chara's neck. "Y- you're not Frisk? Hehe… hehehehe… oh man, that's great."

A grappling hook landed on the cliff and dug its claws into the rocks. A moment later, Papyrus was pulling himself up. "How's the weather up here?" he asked once he made it up.

Sans smiled and looked up at the rocky ceiling. "Great, man. So much better than I thought."

Papyrus smiled brightly. "PERFECT!" He turned to Chara and asked, "So what might your name be, human?"

"Chara." Sans responded for them. "Their name is Chara. And it's a great name."

"Well, Chara, it's a pleasure to meet you! I've personally never met a human, and I'm far less nervous on the outside than I thought I'd be!"

Sans turned to Chara and offered his hand. "The name's Soul." Then, a swift gloved hand whacked him in the back of the skull.

"Nyeh! Stop telling people that ridiculous nickname!" Papyrus looked slightly annoyed. "His name is Sans!"

Sans sighed. "Yeah."

"Still can't walk, Chara?" Papyrus asked. Chara replied by shaking their head. "That is okay!" Papyrus used his magic to hoist Chara up and onto his back. Papyrus leaned forward and grabbed Chara's legs so they couldn't slip off. "I'll carry you, and you are much lighter than I imagined." He started to walk down the cave until they came to a cart track and turned left. "We'll take you to Cavedin. But the doctors may not be there today. So we may go to Mistfeild instead to meet the Scientist!"

Chara wasn't too focused on this. They were instead watching Sans, who was walking ahead, not paying attention either but instead had a big goofy smile on his face. He seemed so scary a moment ago and now was full of glee and couldn't stop silently smiling to himself.

Then, what sounded like the charging of a blast came from ahead of them. Chara's eyes widened, but they couldn't do much. Luckily, a wall of bones shot out in front of them as a blue beam of light came crashing against the bones.

"VIOLET!!" Papyrus called out. "IT'S US!!"

When the bones fell away, a young woman stood before them. Her skin was a pale white, and her hair covered one of her eyes, with a hood over her head and decorative purple clothing that made her look important. Violet, it was assumed, wielded a sword and a shield. The shield seemed to be smoking, so it seemed to Chara that was the source of the beam.

"Gaah- oh, I'm sorry, Papyrus. Just doing my job."

"It's fine, Via! The first days of guard training are rough, trust me. But violence shouldn't be the first instinct."

Violet looked ashamed as she looked down and blushed a deep shade of… blue? Chara had never seen anyone blush that color. "S- sorry. Undyne teaches things a lot differently than you, so—"

Papyrus sighed at the mention of that name. "Undyne means well, and Gerson trained her, so it's understandable why she works like that. But The Dreem Guard doesn't need to resort to violence anymore, Via. Peace is first! Like with Chara!"

"Oh!" Violet, for the first time, seemed to notice Chara. "A- is that a human?"

"Yeah! And don't act like they can't hear you. They aren't deaf, you know! Or dead. And as Dreem Guard, it's your duty to make sure of it. We're gonna see if we can get them back to the surface." Sans explained.

"But they're just a kid? Don't you think they'd be better off down here?" Violet asked in a hushed manner.

Papyrus frowned and looked down before he inhaled, his chest lifting slightly, and sighed out an exhale. "As head of the Dreem Guard, I don't believe it's alright for me to discuss this topic. And you shouldn't either. We're here to protect and support the citizens of the underground, and any visitors. We shouldn't sway their beliefs. They're entitled to their own minds."

"But I—"

"Whatever opinions you may have on the Humans and Upper Grounds stay to yourself in a public environment. You're at work right now. Not your house. I'm sorry, Via."

"Okay…" She cleared her throat. "Would you like an escort to the village?"

"That would be nice, Violet! Thank you!" Papyrus cheerfully said. "Do you know if any Medicine Experts are in town?"

She thought for a moment as she turned and walked down the increasingly narrow cave. "I don't know if any Experts are. But the princess is here."

Sans coughed and covered his mouth. "Why?!? Did something happen?"

Violet laughed. "No, no—she said she was bored. She's hanging out with Dogamy and Dogaressa right now. Probably at Grillby's."

Papyrus thought. "Makes sense. It is their day off."

"So did they escort her?" Sans asked as he wiped what looked like honey mustard off his chin.

When did he get honey mustard? Chara asked themselves, looking at an orange bottle with a bear on it labeled "Honey Mustard."

Violet responded to Sans with a laugh. "Ha! No."

"So who did?" Papyrus inquired. Chara just noticed he was crouched down so Chara's head wouldn't hit the ceiling. It was a simple act, yet it really showed that Papyrus didn't stop taking care of Chara.

"I don't think anyone did."

"NO ONE?!" Papyrus and Sans said at once.

"Dude, Cavedin is the furthest town apart from the Spider Village from New Home! And she came all this way WITHOUT AN ESCORT??? She's only a kid! Think about all the monsters that could have killed her!!" Sans seemed to be freaking out.

Violet tilted her head. "Well, if the king didn't think it was okay, then he wouldn't have let her."

Papyrus chimed in. "You clearly never met Cocoa! She doesn't even ask The King or Queen if it's okay! She just does stuff anyway. Don't tell anyone I said this, but she's just as stubborn as the Queen."

Violet laughed. "I'm sure anyone who heard you, even The Queen themselves, would agree!"

"If she wasn't the Princess, I'd give Cocoa a few choice words on how dangerous that is." Sans mumbled.

"Well…" Papyrus sighed as they stepped through a hole into a large and open cave with lanterns everywhere and houses in the sides of the cave. Monsters of all shapes, sizes, and colors bustled about. "Welcome to the underground!"

The lights came in all shapes and sizes and colors just like the monsters. A young kid dressed in a red scarf and ruby red horns. A bunny running an outpost selling various goods. A bear sitting outside of a bar and grill called "Sweet N' Spice," and it seemed to be where they were heading.

"I thought we were going to Grillby's?" Chara asked skeptically.

"We are." Violet responded. "They just rebranded to Sweet N Spice when The Owner of Grillby's and Spider-Cakes combined. Everyone here just calls it Grillby's though since it's what it's been called for years."

Inside, it was a warmly lit room with monsters bustling about. Two anthropomorphic dogs were at a table. One dealing cards, the other checking theirs skeptically.

On the other end of the table, a happy goat-like lady sat smiling at her hand of cards while she bopped her head to the distorted jazzy music playing in the broken jukebox. She was wearing a gray overall dress with an odd symbol on it.

Chara didn't even notice Papyrus walking over there until he started speaking. "Your Majesty? what did we tell you about traveling without an escort?"

Cocoa sighed and pushed a stack of coins to the middle of the table. It seemed to make both the dogs' eyes widen in shock.

"Not to. Papyrus, I don't see why? I'm practically an adult and—"

"You're the princess." Sans said blankly. "Sure, you have say over the Dreem Guard, but at the end of the day, their best interest is to make sure you and the royal family are safe."

"I'd much rather they protect the citizens, not me." Cocoa responded with a nodding head, as the male dog put their cards down, and Cocoa smiled and took the whole pile. She must have won that hand. She started to count the coins.

"Your Highness, we are." Violet pleaded. "We do our best to protect the citizens, and we do it well. But you're also our responsibility!"

Cocoa sighed. She hadn't once looked at them throughout this whole thing. But when she did, she instantly noticed Chara. "Uh, who are you? Did Papyrus capture you like he did the bats the other day?"

"Nyeh? Uh, no, Lady Cocoa… I didn't. We rescued this Human! In fact, we were about to ask if you could heal them. They took quite the fall, and I did my best with what I had."

Cocoa smiled warmly at Chara. "Of course I can!"

Papyrus set the human child down on a chair, and Chara winced in pain. A white glow surrounded their body, and the pain receded slowly. But when Cocoa was done, they looked worried.

"Soul… Papyrus… Violet…" Cocoa asked. "We may need to see the scientist… their soul… it doesn't seem right. I can heal their physical body, but when I tried healing their soul, I didn't recognize it. It didn't even seem Human or Monster. It's new."

Sans scratched the top of his head and looked at Chara. "The Timeline did a number on you, buddy…"

The timeline? What? Chara asked silently, confused.

Violet tugged Papyrus's shirt. "Hey… uh…"

"Yes, Via?"

"Can I assist you and Sans in taking the Human to the Scientist?"

"Of course you can!" he beamed down at the young lady as he unraveled his Bandana from Chara's arm and unsummoned his bones.

"Cocoa is coming with us." Sans said as if they all already agreed on it.

"Oh, come on! I can't stay for one more game?"

"No." Sans, Papyrus, and Violet all said at once.

"Fine… I guess this is enough." She split the pile of money roughly in half, and left one half on the table for Dogamy and Dogaressa, who instantly started wagging their tails excitedly, and she carried the other half to the bartender, who was another Dog. Then she yelled, "DRINKS ARE ON THE ROYAL FAMILY!!" and the whole building erupted in a cacophony of howling, cheering, and claps before Cocoa started walking to the door. "You guys coming?"

Part 2

[hua-fei-hua]

(referring o lantern rite 3.4)

I found zhonglis performance as mortal adult who doesn't know venti as satisfactory while ventis to be 100/10 (no I am not biased). performance of the century. no millenia.

there was a lot of gay shit happening we know it we know it. I like to believe that hutao knows about a bard boyfriendTM. and she finally got to meet said boyfriend (who is also friends with zhongli,,,, hmm hutao detective glasses on I bet she wasn't fooled at all)

moon(iI am still laughing at the kidsctions to these adults doing. whatever they were. like why were they making upncover sorry fr but it was theater. art

did you meet beinguang at the uhhh place where rex lapis died. (thwir dialogue makes me laugh so much. am pretty sure at this point we can safely say that chess is code for making out hornily)

I also wanted to hear ventis thoughts in more detailed but ngl. I think it's pretty neat that xvn would like to keep their relationship a secret but only venti is the one who can while xiao's affection is apparent to anyone who knows him because he is an open book. Even if he tried he can't hide it. but I also wanted to know what venti thinks of music :( I had hoped that it would be like irodori where eh doesn't say much but just watches,,, is there in the background while giving inputs once in a blue moon

Also I did replay my own recording at yess!!! venti did blink a lot??? was it him going 'play along play along' hahaha idk

venti could go to an improv comedy club and absolutely sweep the competition; that man KNOWS how to play along and do so with SUBTLETY. probably bc he spends most of his waking life playing pretend and has done so for centuries, but then again, zhongli has also walked amongst mortals, who see him n go, "it couldn't be... is it??" so he passes with juuuust enough grace to leave them wondering lol. venti absolutely the best out of the three tho. xiao's acting skills found dead in a ditch lmao

OH but smth else i did remember is that i found it interesting that zhongli chose to call xiao by alatus. i know a lot of people tend to subscribe to the hc that alatus is xiao's true name (it's a pretty strongly supported hc that i refuse to subscribe to, personally) n that his weakness is his true name (also pretty supported by the text in canon n a hc i do subscribe to), so i find it interesting that, if alatus is xiao's true name (and secret weakness), zhongli would address him by such. one could say it's just his way of being more polite to someone who served in the archon war, but like idk. i just find it a bit odd and worth noting

a while back i was chillin w/my friends n making one of those alignment charts that's like "distinguished/functional/disaster" vs. "gay/bi/lesbian" (except we also added ace/pan/straight for a bit more nuance) n it was like "well, we have charas w/straight vibes from mond, inazuma, and sumeru. what abt liyue? do any of the liyue characters have straight vibes?" and the answer was no. liyue gay as hell.

and yes i DID see the beiguang over on yujing terrace!!! i was like "omg beiguangs" n i talked to them n i was like "is... is the chess a metaphor for sex???" bc WHAT WAS THAT?? HELLO???? last lantern rite was very much their wedding and so this year they get to sit back n be the stable established couple

also i can't believe hu tao met xiao's bf n then instantly went, "we will have an immortal pact of mischief, a solemn vow of fun written in silly poetics" she knows what she's doing. she knows EXACTLY who venti is; those dots were hardly even disconnected in her head.

i can absolutely see xv keeping their relationship a secret just bc xiao is a very private character, n venti would respect that. it's just so funny to see them fail bc xiao has difficulty maintaining a separation btwn his public n private lives. ofc he doesn't tell anyone if they don't ask, and he never drops any hints that would prompt people to ask normally, but in this particular type of situation where he has to explain himself and his relationship to someone, he's probably so unused to having a public social life that he has absolutely zero skills when it comes to answering questions truthfully, but with respect to his own privacy.

venti opinion on music.... that would've been nice to see :c though i don't think we asked xiao for his opinion either! hmm hmm... i wonder if they keep xiao's character development behind the ephemeral event quests specifically bc they're ephemeral n there's (maybe) gay shit going on behind the scenes.

but also omg so it WASN'T just my computer choking from the constant abuse i make it suffer venti was fluttering his lashes or smth at xiao. i'd personally interpret it as ~smug flirtations~ where he's just like, "ah, yes, how is xiao going to explain me away? :3" but who knows!!! i have brainworms lol

hi!! how are you feeling? <33 I saw your work and I loved it!! Do you have a list of characters you write for?

Could I ask for some gaming headcanons in the falling in love stage? I would like to see the confession and all that ahshaj please and thank you!! <33

falling in love hcs ᰔ gaming

genre: fluff (they/them prns)

a/n: hello!! i'm glad you like my work, i'm feeling alright <3 this took so long to do i really could not think of anything for days but then got hit with the urge to write and got this done haha. as for charas. i want to say i write for most of them(?), but i'll make a list soon for who i mainly want to write for ^^

i feel like gaming doesn’t have a lot of experience with romantic feelings, so at first he doesn’t even realise that he likes, likes you, but from an outsider's perspective, people can clearly see the signs that he has a crush on you.

who else does he throw lovesick-like glances at? or gives not so subtle lingering touches too? or gets way more cheery than he usually is when you’re around? even with his whole, ‘oh- no way! we're just friends!” spiel he says when he’s asked about you. it isn’t fooling anyone.

gravitating towards you is another thing he does. the second he sees you he’d come up to you to say hello and ask about your day, or if you’re in his presence he’d want to stand/sit close next to you.

oh, you just have to be there for his wushou dance performances!! he’ll invite you everytime he has one coming up - he’ll even get you in the front row if he has to!!

(also you could not tell me he doesn’t playfully tease you or unintentionally make flirty comments towards you i just know he would!! he loves seeing you flush over his comments haha)

gaming only starts to question the way he sees you when xianyun makes a passing comment to him, ‘my, one can see you’re quite fond of them, aren’t you gaming?’ fond? quite fond? well, he definitely didn’t disagree with xianyun. he does like you! …but the more he thinks about the way he acts towards and how much he actually thinks about you, gaming comes to the realisation that he does in fact have feelings for you that go past platonic.

gaming treats you as he normally does, but he now finds himself stumbling over his words and having a harder time making eye contact with you. 

and when you smile or laugh? his can feel his face instantly heating up. he blames it on his pyro vision. it’s not his pyro vision

the thought of confessing his feelings to you makes gaming… nervous. after all, he isn’t even sure if you like him back or not. but gaming doesn’t like to keep his feelings locked away, so he eventually decides he wants to confess to you (he does stall for a couple of days… have to build up that confidence.)

it’s generic (i know...) , but he’d invite you out for dim sum. however his plan of confessing to you after you’ve both finished your meal falters when you mention you’ve noticed he’s been a bit off lately and ask if he’s been doing okay. well… no time like the present, right?

“i’m fine! really, sorry for making you worry. it’s just that… i’ve been thinking a lot about you, actually. i really like you, y’know? and if you don’t like me back that’s totally okay! i won’t be mad, but… i just need to know what you think of me.”

his confession is more jumbled up than he wanted it to be. but with that now off his chest, he waits for your response, with hopes of you telling him you like him back as well.

(but seriously, how could anyone say no to someone as cute as him?)

[seelestia]

YAAAA CONGRATS!! at least you're done with your exams :nod nod: and i'm sure ayato is vv proud of you as well /pos (yes my three emotional supports have me covered all thee sides and they say hello as well hehe). tbh this semester seems a lot more draining than the last one since ✨introvert burnout✨in school i'm a lot more like bedo tbh :/ ~Lycoris

thank you, ly! the sigh i let out after the last paper was finished is UNREAL. i can deffo see ayato giving me headpats for it and i gently bury my head into his sleeve to whine abt my stolen brain. he's so soft, i chomp on him. (/lh)

as a fellow introvert, i get you! sometimes, i get tired just being in a room full of people even without talking to anyone there 😭 it's because i'm crazier when i'm alone and being surrounded by people doesn't give me that liberty, i reckon. (/lh)

you and albedo standing (holding hands) together in the corner of the room: 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️

p/s: just a fun question but, is there any genshin charas that you deeply relate to?? i personally get nilou / layla vibes from you! vv pretty and delicate + 'you shall be protected' energy. (/pos)

tysm for understanding, ly! 😭 BUT YES, i did mean his silly little meltdown because i just had to laugh. howl appeared so suave and elegant at first — then WABAM, sulking and crying into his hands until there was literal green goo. but i think howlbedo would find the new hair color "a breath of fresh air given by fate (or accidental change because you're just trying to clean)" instead of crying into his hands over it. (/lh)

PLEASE. ly, he'd chuckle at you and then hold you up softly before you fall... have you turned into goo yet. (/lh) indeed, i imagine ghibli prince ayato and i'm the gardenkeeper who waters the flowers and he keeps having breakfast in the garden when i'm working <3

the urge to suddenly write tighnari when you're chatting to me abt him is becoming unreal. because your dynamic with him just goes so well i can instantly imagine how he'd react to you! (/pos) i think he'd deffo raise his eyebrow at you playfully like "oh, so you're threatening me now? is that how it's going to be?" and then he may or may not tickle you (/lh)

now, one vs three is unfair. not just unfair, those three include: an alchemist, a forest ranger, and the general mahamatra. come now, i'm just a silly gal who loves food and i was just taking ly on a little walk— i'll bring her back, i promise. (/j)

NOOOOOO, THAT'S SO CUTE. pleaseee, as soon as tighnari snaps out of it, he'd look at you up and down and go, "...did you drink a potion while i wasn't looking?" and then, your punishment is getting snuggled. just make sure not to hop off when he puts you on his shoulder but also make sure to tease him abt kissing you in your bunny form because no one is gonna forget that. (/lh)

who would i want to hold me?? ayato and heizou are good choices, but i'll go with the latter because i have a headcanon that he talks to animals like a reporter/interviewer, so i'd wanna be a witness to that! before i puff up from a samoyed puppy (rin tells me i remind her of a samoyed and i thank her for that) to a human, that is. ehehehe.

Kris' Overly Uncanny Default Sprite...

This has been an idea of mine for quite a while, but...

Kris in certain scenes.....Scenes that we are told have Kris undergoing....Rather emotional moments, which are very important about their character...They just remain with the same default sprite

Like yeah we've all been laughing our tuna cans off, as we have yet another "-_-" child in the KFC gang, but it truly is weird

When Queen reveals that she has plugged Berdly's face and basically mind controlling him, everyone backs away in shock, even Kris....But Kris doesn't change their sprite in the slightest....They were shocked enough to back away like everyone else....but not enough to change their sprite...?

Same goes on in here, when Noelle intrudes upon Kris and Susie, right before they enter the Supply Closet, Kris very clearly is as shocked as Susie, instantly backing into the Closet next to Susie i guess in an attempt to hide the door for some reason (....Or it's just their first instinct to go near the strong, moss enjoying, purple dragon, mean girl to defend them from threats)....And even then Kris...Just slides away in their default sprite, there isn't even any walking animation

the entire thing just....looks so uncanny and I HIGHLY doubt that this is just Toby not wanting to make sprites for a single scene....Because come on, he has done that already countless times with Susie and let's be honest, if we got a shocked Kris sprite, we would all collectively loose our minds and paste into every meme possible

Even in the post-Spamton NEO scene, where Kris basically yells "NO"....their sprite remains unchanged, sure they turn away from us, but other than that....They remain the exact same

in all of those scenes, Kris remains unchanged, with their seemingly apathetic exterior never seeming to crack...

...or so we've been lead to believe

There are countless times in which Kris is said to be showcasing emotions that we never get to see (heck we never even get to see what they are actually saying, depending on the Narrator and the Characters around them to tell us)

and all of the other characters' overworld sprites always change in scenes, even when we are most likely focused on the dialogue, or even for small moments

but NEVER with Kris....

....and the same goes on in Undertale with Frisk

So, what? Are all the humans just a singular face at all times? Is that like a design decision that Toby made?

...well not really...Because we actually do get to see humans show off different sprites and I'm not talking about Chara, who other than having a smile as their sprite can also make a fully animated jumpscare

I'm talking about Kris

Whenever we are ripped out of them...or about to be ripped off, Kris becomes a trillion times far more...Energetic, gaining all sorts of overly expressive sprites and frames, their "-_-" sprite vanishes entirely

"..okay so maybe it's just that the Scene was given far more detailed sprites to make it clear what's going on with Kris?"

well that would be likely...but when Kris finally inserts back in, seeing a glimpse of their face feeling the pain that such an action causes them.......There's silence...They're just sitting there for quite a while...And then we are given back control, instantly, already on our feet, no animation in between and then the music returns as if nothing ever happened....

So we've seen Humans showcase different sprites showcasing emotions...and the only times it has happened was with characters that weren't under our control, Chara ,when they were talking to us had become fully independent from us and Kris when they are about to or have removed us from them

Leaving us with Frisk and controlled Kris...Who are both under our possession (details about that in here)

So where am I going with all this?

Well seeing as We are the only ones incapable of seeing their emotions and in general hearing their voice and only whenever We are in control...I think the conclusion I'm trying to reach is:

Whenever we possess Kris, Frisk or in general anyone....Seemingly an "illusion" is cast (or just something happens to make it like that) on them making us only see them through that weird default sprite which only changes when the sprite itself has undergone some rather big change in position (falling on ground, sitting on the floor after being knocked out, or when engaging in battle, which is the only place in which we see the large amount of their unique sprites (which are still devoid of emotion))

the best example I can think of would be from OFF (the game)...in which SPOILERS but

The Batter the protagonist we are specifically told we are puppeteering, exactly like Kris...And depending on our actions, he can become the final boss of the game...and well...His Sprite undergoes a slightly small change...Turning from just a baseball dude....To...Well, This and from many clues throughout the game itself it can be gathered...That this is how everyone has been seeing us the entire game, not as a normal baseball man, but as a "huge, frightening ducky"

And if you didn't know, OFF has been an inspiration to Undertale...soo....Who knows!

...Thank you for reading!~

Here's some of my fav stoic character situations that I haven't seen being mentioned yet.

A huge, stone faced character is going for a full blown intimidation attempt which would have totally worked if the one being intimidated hadn't called their bluff and they weren't currently being tickled into a giggly mess.

A serious, no nonsense type has a meeting or a speech and their peer is secretly tickling them, unbeknownst to everyone else present and now they're stuck in a lose-lose situation where they either just try to endure the agonizing tickling without reacting, tell them to stop, which would inadvertently let everyone else know that they are ticklish (which would definitely be used against them) or Jerk/laugh which would effectively do the same thing.

A very intimidating and closed off person actually asking/volunteering to be tickled (because they actually like it) which goes against everything everyone knows about them but the clash with their personality just makes them twice as happy to oblige.

Someone is trying to tickle their smug, no nonsense friend to try to knock them down a peg/ get them to loosen up but it isn't working because they have very particular/hard to reach tickle spots. so now they're like "are you done?" until their friend hits a particularly good spot and they crumble instantly.

NAAAAAAH OMG THESE ARE BRILLIANT YES???? YES???? Esp fucking soft for these I am IN LOVE with these concepts. I also fuckin love when charas aren't ticklish all around but have a select few major death spots, it's so underrated

STOIC PERSON WANTING TO BE TICKLED?????? Be still my beating HEART that is beyond precious
