Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Undertale (Video Game) Rating: Not Rated Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Characters: Sans (Undertale), Papyrus (Undertale)

Only 478 words, but I think it’s good enough for a first try *casually dying inside*

I’ll update it and post, but this is what I could do for now :’D

Anyways! @grungepuppet @mimikyu @ghostinthepepper @salzab @liliallowed @errorsans-isthebest @hahskeleton

What do you think?

All is ash and meat indeed.

Might be harder to turn magic bows into ash though. Might need to just hide those.

Companion Durge having 'I can fix them. I can make them worse better' thoughts after seeing Greygold not fully optimizing their half-orc savage attacker feat. Just so much 'embrace murder' approval and so much confusion why they intentionally avoid splitting skulls in two.

Not sure how Durge's approval system would work, but I like to think sometimes Embrace Dark Urge rears their lil bloodthirsty snoot and tries to entice Greygold to join 'team murderize'. Would be fun(?) not knowing if you were raising Resist Urge Approval or Embrace Urge Approval until he started giving you a hug or a bloody heart (sometimes from your own chest).

“OMG! CHLOE TREATS HER FATHER SO TERRIBLY!” 😣

And I understand that!

However, Andre’s a grown adult man, not a freaking baby nor a little boy who needs his father’s approval anymore.

He’s the one who brought her into the world, enabled Chloe, spoiled her rotten, GAVE HER he privileges (the same ones Thomas claims she had), and set a bad example for her. HE put himself into the situation, so HE’S the one that has to deal with it. If you ask me, he needs to grow a spine and do his job as a father instead of expecting everyone to pity him for the bad mistakes that HE made lol 😂

Hello! We all know (or hopefully perceive the idea) that Satan would be a sweet romantic at heart! So imagine Satan x MC in an arranged marriage in TSL AU! For eg: everything was going well, they’re slowly falling for each other but MC has to keep secrets that hurts Satan! So MC tries gaining his trust by being honest, while Satan falls for MC again, as much as he denies it!

Of course, feel free to discard the idea, no pressure :)

Just A Small, Little Lie (TSL Arranged Marriage! AU)

(first request! i won't lie, i'm relatively new to the fandom and couldn't find any specifics for the tsl!au other than mc being henry and the demon brothers being the seven lords. but! i hope this suffices! all the tsl writings out there seem to have a more darker, sombre tone, too - so i hope that comes across :D but thank you so much, anon, for being my first requester! i hope its decently alright ahaha)

(Full fic under the cut! And feel free to plop ideas in the idea box :D)

Synopsis:

(Takes place in the TSL! AU - reader is Henry).

You used to be a knight serving the Seven Lords, popular amongst all in the realm. Then one day, without warning, the Lord of Corruption orders you to marry the Lord of Masks; of whom you had the closest relationship with out of all his brothers. However, the feelings for him that had once been growing in your heart turn sour as you're required to give up your knighthood, your life and your freedom for this arranged marriage.

Your husband gradually drops his mask, as he falls deeper in love with you.

And you gradually put up your mask, as you fall further out of love with him.

_

You don’t tell your husband that your fingers hurt, as you wind the stems of green willow between them into something that maybe, possibly resembles a flower chain. Fake green willow; because nothing survives here except him, you and the cats he allows to come and go from the castle. Fake green willow; with plastic that splits into sharp prongs that dig into your flesh when you bend it. Your husband’s flower chain is made with real green willow that has long since withered away; but today, for whatever reason he keeps behind the mask he wears, he’s decided to bring the flowers back to life by winding them into a chain. And, for whatever reason, he’s demanded you do the same.

Your flower chain looks horrible. His chain looks perfect. Like your perfect husband, with his perfect kingdom, and your perfect marriage.

The perfect, perfect marriage you never even asked for.

You don’t tell your husband much of anything, nowadays. You remember your days as Henry, the brave knight, who fights against evil and protects the seven, wise sages of the realm. You used to talk with the Lord of Masks before heading off on excursions, during breaks in military council meetings, over private, celebratory dinners… Anytime you could, you’d seek him out. You remember shifting in your seat the first time you had invited him to dinner, avoiding his gaze bashfully as you both had placed your hands on the table, fingers inching ever closer to touch. You remember he had taken your hand in his, lifting it to his lips. You even remember the exact knuckle where his soft, gentle lips had kissed. Such a romantic night; where you were free to speak and laugh and smile as you pleased. Free to possibly even fall in love with him.

… Free. You were free, until the Lord of Corruption had suddenly forced you over to the Lord of Masks as a prize. He had stripped you of your title as a knight, had forbid you from entering any other kingdom, and presented you to his brother with a shackle on your ring finger and a matching mask to wear.

So now, you do what you do best as a knight and steel yourself, putting up your guard. Everything you want to think, say or do… you keep secret.

_

The Lord of Masks doesn’t realise your fingers hurt, as you wind the stems of green willow between them into something that maybe, possibly resembles a flower chain. Fake green willow; because nothing survives here and he wanted you to have only the prettiest things which come close to matching your beauty. Fake green willow; which pales in comparison to the adorable expression on the face of his dear, beloved Henry, your tongue poking out of the corner of your mouth in concentration. He, himself, doesn’t really know why he’s decided to come to your room in the middle of the night to make flower chains, but he tells himself it’s to keep his spouse entertained. Nothing more than his usual behaviour and cunning. To keep up the façade of an upstanding, untouchable member of society.

He marries Henry and keeps them happy.

He shares in Henry’s immense popularity and gets the knight’s military prowess at his disposal.

Such a good deal for Henry, the Lord of Masks thinks… ignoring the unfamiliar, warm heat spreading over his flushed cheeks when you hold out your finished flower necklace out to him.

A good deal for Henry - no, not himself - indeed.

He tells you too much, these days. He remembers talking to you: Henry, the knight - not Henry, his spouse. Faking his smile in the breaks between council meeting and pretending to care before you headed off on military excursions.

But then you had invited him to dinner for the first time after a victory. Then, he had seen expressions he had never seen you show anyone. Not even his brothers. The Henry that wasn't just the tool he could use to conquer territory; nor the Henry he could use to gain status. This Henry smiled at him. Stuttered and faltered and even blushed when he kissed their hand - like the princesses in the fairytales he pretended he didn't love to read, or the fairies illustrated in the bedtime stories he read as a child. Someone enchanting, perfect and loving in a world where's he's only known masks.

So he does what he does best and dons his own mask. Through his various connections in high society, he had covertly pulled the strings and had the marriage arranged himself; masquerading it as his idiot older brother's idea. It’s on-brand; a marriage proposal masked as pure business, so he never has to face what he really feels. But he can pretend. Pretend he was brave enough to get down on one knee, ring in hand. Pretend that his story was exactly like that of the heroes of his favourite tales.

Pretend it wasn't the prince, instead, who was hopelessly, foolishly, in love with his loyal knight.

_

The Lord of Masks smiles. If one looks closely, past the haze of the lamplight, they might be able to notice that the smile reaches his eyes. He takes the necklace made by his spouse and barely squeezes it over his head and around his neck. Green willow-shaped plastic digs into his skin.

You try to smile, too. You look at him and try to remember the man who had lovingly pressed a kiss to your hand on that night, small specks of emotion spilling out from under his carefully-crafted guise. You keep his true image in your eyes - that of your rage-filled captor - a secret. It’s the only way for you to keep up your own act… and maybe stop yourself from breaking the heart of the gentleman you once held feelings for. If he was even still there at all.

“I love you.” The Lord of Masks says, forgetting how tight the flower chain had felt around his neck only seconds ago. His mask slightly falls forward, loosely, as he leans his head against yours and gently nuzzles you - like a cat would. He even rubs his nose against yours, basking in your scent. Internally, he curses himself. His body is betraying him.

“I… I love you, too.” You say, the band of your own mask chafing painfully into the back of your neck. You're unable to move when your husband shows his affection and you ready yourself to play it off as nerves. But something in your heart - as you look at him and see the man who had leaned forward to kiss your hand - falters. Were you still holding out hope, even now? Internally, you curse yourself. You need to learn to be better at acting.

The two of you stay there a while: the Kingdom of Masks' happy, perfect couple. Your foreheads touch, your fingers intertwine and, yet, your hearts are far, far apart. Into the darkness, the two of you continue to utter that sentence:

"I love you."

It's a whole-hearted truth after a lifetime of hiding, for one...

… And one of many, many small, little lies, for the other.

(hello, anon, i hope you enjoyed this! i went kinda tragic love story route; with hopeless romantic satan and a trapped mc, though i'd like to think mc is still holding out hope that the man they fell in love with is still there. if you wanted something a little happier though, anon, please let me know and i'll write a sequel, this premise is one i really enjoyed!)

Silly plant/nature/animal??? headcanons of the apple twins 💃 because as @signanothername said we need to make the connection to trees more prominent

So ima throw all my previous nature based headcanons in one post plus maybe more

Also off topic but can we get more fae/spirit based headcanons for them?? Like HELLO?

Okay first of all what i said in that one ask they can do photosynthesis, getting energy from the sun.

Swap sees dream in the sun frequently and killer sees nightmare in the sunroom a lot with other plants (he's photosynthesizing with other plants, such a cutie patootie)

They both really like nature, a lot. Nightmare has a room full of taxidermy with all kinds of animals, and books full of pressed flowers with their information. And the sunroom of course, where he takes care of his plants. (Plus the gigantic garden)

Dream visits a lot of places with animals, or just goes to the forest. I think he wouldn't press flowers but like, dry them you know, hanging them all across the house.

Nightmare saw a cat sitting in a tree once in a particular way and he now sits that way in trees to, sometimes throwing fruit at other people to annoy them, while dream prefers sitting at the trunk of the tree.

Nightmare has cat traits while dream has owl traits (i gave them the traits of the animal they are scared of/don't like 😌)

Nightmares eyelight changes based on his mood, like gets big when he's excited or 'hunting', is afraid or gets surprised (his tendrils tend to 'puff up' like a cats tail when hes afraid or is surprised too) and can see better in the dark.

Dreams eyelights are always dilated, he sees better in the dark too. He also tends to turn his whole head to look instead of just moving his eyelights. Also also he can turn his neck freakishly like an owl, not as much but pretty damn close. He looks fluffed up when scared somehow, his posture being one of a scared owl.

They both paw at stuff when they're curious or bored. Nightmare specifically does it to annoy others by pushing off their glasses from the table.

Both of them have something like hibernation, and go back to their home au to 'hibernate'. its one of those rare moments where they can be together without fighting. Even if they spend that time sleeping, they're still next to eachother.

Off topic

They also end up feeling sleepy and sluggish if there is too much negativity/positivity. The power feels good until it gets too much and their body makes them sleep to regulate.

Same thing happens when there is too little, but then its because they need to preserve energy

They both make the "mrrph?" Cat starting up noise when woken up.

off topic again 💃 But for me nightmare is always cold while dream is always warm. So nightmare is in the sun a lot more (also gets more energy that way AND warmth so its a win win) and he also wears a lot of layers and furs. The sun may not reach a lot of nightmare but the amount of time he spends in the sun makes up for it. Dream cant go in the sun for a long time without drinking a lot of water and wearing thin clothing or he straight up gets a heatstroke, he gets most of his energy sleeping. When they were younger they used to cuddle because their different temperatures would balance eachother out.

Back on topic, the twins pick up a lot of stuff from animals. Nightmares way of 'hunting" is very similair to how predator animals do it. While dream doesn't 'hunt' like nightmare does, when he just got out of stone he used to actually hunt animals because he wasn't used to grocery stores and all. He got a lot of fox themed nicknames from that.

They both make biscuits like cats do when sleepy or asleep. They also have razor sharp teeth, though you dont notice it unless they yawn or something. They frequently hurt their tongue because of how sharp their teeth are.

Off topic again but dream totally has hurt people and has thrown violent tantrums fresh out the statue, even if he didn't mean to. I'm talking earthquake making tantrums

Back on topic

They share some traits with dragons, like the hoarding piles of gold type thing. Thought i guess you could also see it as a crow thing 🤔 they really like shiny stuff and they both collect stuff. While dream collects more just general shiny stuff, might be a spoon or something, nightmare is more focused on luxury gems and real gold.

Also the nests, like i said nightmare is cold, always. His bed is giant with a bunch of pillows and blankets thrown around, he takes 10 minutes trying to untangle himself everytime he wakes up or just wants to get up.

Dreams sleeps on cold hard tile because, well, cold. Sometimes he sleeps with a pillow .

Nightmare doesn't like baths 1. because they make his 'goop' like actual goop and it staints fucking EVERYTHING after a bath. And 2. He has sensory issues, he hates the feeling of water and he hates the feeling of the 'goop' after a bath. He takes a bath once every while. he frequently has dust baths though. Like a chinchilla. Those are a lot more bearable for him, and they do the job.

Nightmare chased his own tendrils when he was six

Apple twins are disney princesses, animals gravitate towards them. They are also WAY more docile around them too

I think the fact that animals are naturally drawn to them also meant that before the village came the most they had of parents were themselves, and the wild animals of the forest. I think before the apple tree incident it was mostly predator animals that stayed around them. Why? Because they'd notice that these babies aren't able to defend themselves and they can do it for them.

So basically just imagine two tiny skeletons cuddling together while leaning on a giant ass mama bear surrounded by cubs

And i think because of that dream and nightmare have more animalistic behaviours then other monsters, especially dream when he first got out that stone prison.

He definitely wouldn't be able to understand others, so the only way he'd be able to communicate for a while would be sounds and gestures.

Also i think nightmare can particularly mimic the sounds of a baby animal calling out for mother or make those distress sounds. because that was the one defense he had before the incident.

I think if now he was injured to the point he cant do much anymore he definitely isn't above mimicking the sounds of a bear cub and having a giant animal defend him while he heals himself

I think after the apple incident prey animals are a lot nightmare a lot more then before, mostly because of those tendrils, they make great hiding places!

think both twins have a particular set of animals that are mostly around that twin

I have no idea how to word that but like

With dream you will mostly see birds, rabbits and more "cute" animals surrounding him. Foxes and others still sometimes come by but its mostly that group

With nightmare i think it's more horses and foxes, the more "elegant" and "mysterious" animals

Like he has definitely used a random horse as a back rest before when reading or something

I think that's it 🗣

[howlsofbloodhounds]

I just realized the "in nightmares castle its always night" wont work

Nightmare is cold, almost always. He constantly wears layers of thick clothing and sometimes real fur.

It makes more sense for it to be always day time? The sun obviously gives off warmth. It constantly being nighttime doesn't benefit nightmare in anyways at all.

And if dream would have a base similair to nightmare, it would always be nighttime. Its colder in the night.

Also. Nightmare is compared a lot to the moon, dream the sun.

They would always have a reminder of their twin

Screenshot time

Where did this nightmare has a castle thing even come from anyway. Is it canon

in your timey wimey fanfiction, will the corrupted heroes ever de-transform?

Yes, they can de-transform, and we will see them un-transformed. I just have to design their looks, I think Alya is the only one with a design right now.
