#i've made it to horrortale at the time of writing this

Featured Fic Friday!

Welcome to Featured Fic Friday! A day where I, or someone who suggests one, tell you about a fanfic that I really enjoy! Spoiler's under the cut! Today's featured fic is...

The One Where Sans Tells It Like It Is. (Or: The One Where Sans Is Number One Dunckle) by marauding_bagel (General Audiences, Complete)

When Toriel asked him to attend the meeting in her place for one night he thought it wouldn't be a big deal. Turns out Sans could not have been more wrong.

A bit of a short fic, there's a surprising lack of fics with this concept! Even still, I like the way the author exectues the idea! I loved reading comics similar to this fic when I was younger, so this threw me back a bit!

I enjoy the way the author writes the characters, & how they have them interact with each other!

Spoilers ahead!

I really like how the author includes some of the reactions from the unamed parents also at the meeting, having mentions of nods of agreement & cheering when Sans insults Helen's brownies!

dust and horror angel and demon themes,,,, they could totally parallel each other...... :3

dust=angel of death described in the delta rune prophecy (self declared) (i DEFINITELY elaborated on this one waayyyy before but anyways dust with a fucked up savior complex SAVE ME SAVE ME.... death is a blessing ass guy. life is torment and he will be the one to liberate monsters from their bodies and with the strength they provide to him be able to take down evil evil creation of pure misery that is the human ✨✨✨ dont worry his evil cackles are to HIDE HIS PAIN of saving everyone....... trust)

horror=demon that dragged everyone in horrortale into hell (as perceived by everyone else) (i think it would be a cool hc if everyone outside of snowdin viewed horror as literally a demon. maybe undyne preaches that. anyone outside of snowdin might be WAYYY worse because they starve for longer and literally take part in cannibalism so they might not have the same sort of mild sanity that snowdin residents do,,,, besides he DID kinda bring them all eternal suffering. kinda. nobody but undyne knows what happened at the core so she could totally just paint the story to blame horror fully)

ANYWAYS i like the possible dynamics this could have :333

dust to horror (please let me kill you PLEASE let me kill you i can end it all so peacefully wouldn't it be nice??? i promise ill make it quick just for you),,, horror to dust (i want you to live and suffer with what youve done i want you to watch all of your choices hit you one day and i'll be there and laugh at you. i'll keep you alive just to keep you suffering ok?)

OR dust to horror (you dont deserve to die you dont deserve to even be hurt by me. not because youre the exception but youre the Exception i absolutely loathe you so youll never get the sweet release of death :3) and horror to dust (just let me die already i dont wanna be here. youre supposed to be a savior right??? an angel?? then why don't you save me already when i need it more than anyone else)

CW alot of swearing, if that triggers you at all

And I'll probably re do this but more professionally when I'm less mad.

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

The whole 'I hate sans centered AU's' and 'The fandom was ruined by AU's' pisses me OFF.

Let me explain it to you like you're five.

So, when a character is popular... yes?

People like that character more than others... yes?

So when people make fanart... yes?

They make it of that character more often than others... yes?

Therefore since the character is more popular and more known. The character has more fan works. Therefore has more AU's.

The fact people define this shit too pisses me off. I've seen people call Horrortale and Underfell sans centered AU's. I'm sorry what? If you said Dusttale sure. Something New (Killer Sans), sure I can't exactly argue. But calling Horrortale and especially UNDERFELL sans centered? Wild.

I assure you you will live if an artist wants to make an Au centered around sans. You also forget he's typically a simple character to draw compared to the rest. So beginner artists can attempt him easier. Also he was by far the most popular character in the fandom in its infancy, and still is the most popular. LOOK I GET that some AU's are sans centered. But the way you treat them makes you look pathetic or uneducated.

Put it this way, people often see videos saying 'Sans centered AU's bad' and reply 'I'm working on an Au where <insert really uninteresting thing>' and look this is Fine. Be creative, in fact I encourage it. However there's a reason these sans centered AU's are popular. They're creative. They were also made when the fandom had enormous communities on platforms like amino. AU's SPREAD. Plus, if your AU was just writing, no art, it's heavily likely you would be ignored or your au would fade out quickly. These are the principles of the Internet. To stay relevant you need to produce new media that people can consume quickly. Art or animation.

Popular AU's made recently(ish) so past the initial craze of dreamtale,Dusttale and so on. Undertale Last Breath, IDUTSHANE and so on. They have to utilise new ideas or new takes on pre existing ideas. It's hard to make a new original idea that is both good, and fits in with the dynamic. These aus are only popular for a while, then fade into irrelevancy. I would love to see some new popular AU's, but however if you make them without sans in them, or as a background character, just know it's likely your au won't have much of a chance.

There's an oversupply of sans au content because there's an extreme demand for it. It's like complaining that a store sells too much monster energy drink and not enough red bull, when that store sells maybe 5 cans of red bull a year, and 50 thousand cans of monster a year.

And let's not even mention when an artist makes AU content that isn't sans centered, the same people who complain about it, just focus on the sanses themselves. Xtale is a huge example. Because of recent events it's fair to understand the limelight is on Cross (trans coded). But in general I never see anything on any OTHER Xtale characters, even from people I know hold the opinion that they want less sans centric aus.

Also the AU's in general keel the fandom afloat. Sure mischaracterisation is rife, but at some point we have to acknowledge the reality of it's damn near impossible to fix. Always stand up for what you believe in, but understand some times it's not worth the energy.

I'll probably re do this but more professional at some point. Sorry for being all over the place. I just wanted to post something and I was mad at this.

[erineas]

Hi there! Hope you don't mind but I'm just wondering if you have any recs for fanfics of the skellies :D I typically love reverse harem trope ones racoonsinqueen & tyranttortoise my absolute favs but if you know any that are just one main pairing but the writing is still good, I'd love to know :D

OK, EVERYONE STOP THEIR HORSES, because it's fanfic appreciation time ✨

I've read my fair share of fanfics, most aren't finished or their authors disappeared but I'll mention them too because they still very much worth it and I. Just. Love. Themmmm!

Also I'll try listing by memory so this is probably going to be messy:

Bitty Hunt by RND_Injustice (SSLL but you're a bitty! Unfinished, has 33 chapters + 18 bonus chapters in here. 10/10 Already read it three times) My Favorite Red Scarf by RND_Injustice (Reader x UT Papyrus. Unfinished, has 34 chapters. MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE. 100/10 I want to marathon this fic with someone, if that makes sense) Fur a good time, Call by popatochisp (Reader x HT Sans. Finished, with extra chapters on Snips & Snails. Another favorite with a 100/10. Also want to marathon this one) Dirty Laundry by popatochisp (Reader x Swapfell bros. Finished. To be honest I don't remember much, that's why it's in my rereading list but it promise very good things and the feelings I get just reading bits are like-- kdjkdjkdj my heart!) On top of the Bone Pile by Lyrjok (Reverse Harem. Finished. Good writing, SSLL vibes but totally different and really good. 10/10. Rereading right now) A Mouse Among Skeletons by Duchess_Aquarius (Reverse Harem with more skeletons than the main 5 AUs. Kinda crazy, rlly, but I still ate it. Finished. Be sure to read the tags. Rlly good writing. You decide how good it is) Bones, Picked Clean by lulu-writes (Reverse Harem. Unfinished. 37 chapters. I don't remember much about it but I loved their Horrortale bros) The Skeleton Games by Poetax (Reader x UF Sans. On going, has 56 chapters by this time, SHORTY RED. I also love this one, another favorite hehe. Unexpected 100/10 to me) Aggre(v/g)ation by Llama_Goddess (Reverse Harem with UF/HT/UT Sans x Reader. Finished. Being honest again, I started reading years ago and haven't finished it for reasons that have nothing to do with the fic. I found it again and let's just say there's a reason why everyone worships this fic)

Those are ones that made my days the first time I enter tumblr. Now that i'm back, lets continue with the recent ones i've read:

House Next Door by BattleMaiden13 (Reverse Harem. On going. Has 130 chapters by this time but you're damned if you want to catch up because THAT AUTHOR IS FAST AF. I've started reading like a month ago and they already posted 25 chapters. Writing improves very fast as you're reading and there's so many things to enjoy. Delicious. 10/10) Saving Three Ex-cell-lent Skeletons by RecklesslyCaffeinated (Reverse harem with UF/HT/UT Sans x Reader. Finished with a second book on the works. ABSOLUTE BANGER. Another 10/10, made me heart bleed for skeletons and question myself) It's just a Game by Htsan (You x UT Sans. Finished. Unconventional. Read it if you like heavy angst and interactive games, and maybe hate your emotional stability... Really good, tho. 10/10. Made me cry so many times. Not gonna elaborate)

Writing Patterns/First 10 Lines Tag Game

I discovered @emeraldhazeart 's post on this but I'm afraid I don't know who started this game. It looked fun though so I spent like an hour digging up old links and writing this out lol

Rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

I didn't realize I'd actually posted ten but here we go! Order is from oldest to newest and only includes the Undertale works I've posted on the internet.

Siren Call 2017 (Classic Timeline feat. my first Undertale OC. Currently abandoned but I have started to rewrite it.)

A catchy tune resonated from the speakers all over the grocery store.

The Hand We've Been Dealt 2019 on Quotev or 2023 on AO3 (Underfell Timeline feat. another OC. Still in progress.)

The sunset certainly was beautiful from up here.

Crazy & Cold 2023 (A Horrortale oneshot ten years post-surfacing.)

Most people probably would've called you crazy.

Nomadic Love 2023 (A post-Echotale oneshot.)

The sun glinted off the clear ocean waves as they lapped at the sandy shoreline before receding back into their bed.

THWBD: Rihanna Lives 2023 (Alternate timeline of The Hand We've Been Dealt.)

You walked carefully through the snow, cringing slightly from the loud crunching sound it made, interrupting the otherwise quiet winter morning.

The Nightmare of Apathy 2023 (An Undertale multiverse fic in progress.)

"Don't forget to refuel your lantern before you leave!"

Nightmare Cuddles 2023 (A semi-canon oneshot for The Nightmare of Apathy.)

The soft pitter patter of rain on the bay window had lulled you into a deep slumber hours ago but now had picked up into a torrential storm.

Have Some Empathy, Dear 2024 (An Undertale multiverse fic.)

It was a dreary day today, yet despite the overcast sky and brisk breeze that often whipped snow into your face, it was the nicest it had been in days.

The Shopping List 2024 (A Classic Timeline oneshot feat. Papyrus.)

With a heavy sigh, you shut your locker and locked it with the combination lock.

A Gentle Soldier 2024 (An Undertale multiverse oneshot.)

You were simple person, just doing what you could to get by in the world.

Conclusion: I am a very descriptive/visual writer and most of the time I start out my stories with describing where the characters are or what's going on. There are a few outliers of course but I generally go for this route and apparently have the entire time I've been writing Undertale fanfiction. I think there's always places I could improve of course but I can see that I have gotten better, even in the last couple of months.

[unidentifiedfluffyobject]

So, I'm sick and in Quarantine. I have way more time to do stuff on my hands and have nothing to do. So I've been doing some thinking.

I wanna write on here, but I find that when I go to make a starter post or a starter call, I don't even know what to write because all of my RP is usually done via discord so I don't even know what to ask for?

And when I do make actual starter posts, I feel like I do them too long and no one reads them and blah blah blah.

So, yeah, I guess I'm posting an ad for lack of anything better to do with my time. Too sick to draw because I can't stop coughing long enough to do a straight line.

Right now I'm in between brainrots, and I've recently made a few new muses, but even so, I'm up to writing with just about any of the ones I have. While writing this I'm realizing I haven't posted the full list of muses I have, which is probably for the best because I have a fucking boatload.

Anyway. Cutting to the chase, looking for a long-term writing partner in the Undertale fandom. I'm sure judging by my current layout it's clear that I write skeletons. That being said, I write humans and other monsters too. You want OC/Canon? You want Canon/Canon? Specify. Just know I'll probably be asking for something in return. Keep everything even steven, y'know?

Right now my current brainrot is sirentale and literally anything situated in the Horror genre (not necessarily Horrortale mind you, even though the beans in that AU are precious).

I guess until I get something sorted I'll work on fics or something. See if I can iron something out.

[crusnikroxas]

HIIII!!! Another ask bc I read Cadaverous, and omg I have many thoughts! This is gonna be a long one strap in my friend

I said in a comment I truly wonder about her father, like I swear *he's* the reason she isn't human, but I'm probably wrong! As well, I wonder if her mother knew when she was born. I have a lot of feelings Abt her mom and none of them are good lmao

But ! I'm quite intrigued, because you put Toriel In your story! A lot of HorrorTale fics don't use her, they say Frisk killed her! I was happily surprised!! (Also I don't read many HorrorTale readers bc... They always do noncon and that's an ick for me but anyway)

I also find it rlly funny how Sans is *also* not gonna talk Abt the whole soulmate thing. I rlly wonder what Papyrus would say... And also I am gonna cry, bc in DEISY papyrus called MC sister, and I can rlly see that *hurting* mc here real bad, I wonder how , if at all, that's gonna work. Especially since MC has more of a protective streak with siblings. (Mood)

I'm really excited to see how you do Grillby's, and other monsters! And I'm still just very excited to see how MC reacts more to genuinely kind people. Because I think, no matter what, Papyrus is kind and especially to someone important to his brother! And like it or not, Mc is important to them. I wonder if she's gonna still destroy humanity and start another war that destroyed the world already. Or if, without their food, theyrw still gonna send people down the hole. Instead, they may just eat them. Really, don't know what they thought would happen by hurting their literal food source . Should have just tried to keep MC happy, really. Kiss her ass! Or yk. They coulda not been absolute shitlords and instead been kind human beings- but then it wouldn't be a story!

I'll probably message more as I gain more thoughts and reread, but GOD every story you write always makes me want to know more! You have a great way of making us question what really went on in their backstory. I always wanna know more!

Thank you as always for writing, it's a pleasure to read it every time! Thank you!

Aaaaaaaaa >////< Thank you so much!! Honestly, I means so much to me when people like my writing, I'm so happy 😊♥️♥️♥️

And on to the questions! Or thoughts 🤣

Hmmm.....all I can say is it's very interesting that you suspect y/n's father may be the cause of all of this 😌 And as for her mother - yup, she's she's horrible person, completely irredeemable 😂😅 But y/n was born naturally, and before her sister, making her the elder sister! Nothing weird there.

Oh really??? I didn't know that! Every Horrortale fic I've read does have Toriel there - even if she's o lying mentioned briefly. Basically, I have more plans for her in the story, ehehehe. >:3

Sans and y/n already have something in common, yaaay! 😂 Sans is....well, a lot more complicated as a character than he first appears (and yes, he's already a complicated dude 🤣) - but we'll unravel more of that later on.

Ahhhhh, my poor Papyrus 😭 He's been through a lot (well, they all have), so he's got a lot of hurdles to jump. The sibling thing may or may not feature 😉

Aaaaaa, I'm so excited about introducing Grillby and everyone else! Let's just say that they're going to be, we'll....pretty damn important lore wise, at least in terms to why y/n is the way she is.... >:3

Nah, you're good, the people on the surface really are shitlords 😂 Well, not all of them, but that's another story 😉 But yes, they made a massive error....or, at least, Michael did. But then, he's also a completely unhinged dude, so he wasn't really thinking about anyone but himself. Things will be changing up there....that's all I can say. 🙃

But again, thank you so much - and thank you so much for reading! 🥺♥️♥️♥️ And thank you for the asks - I really love receiving them, ehehehhe 😊

For the fruit ask

🍌 🍓 🍍

🍌 In your opinion, what’s the funniest joke/reference/pun you’ve made in a fic?

HDJGDSJDGSHJ I. ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THIS ONE JOKE/SCENE IN MY ONESHOT "Home" THAT JUST, MAKES ME LAUGH EVERY TIME AND IT'S STILL GENUINELY I THINK THE FUNNIEST THING I'VE WRITTEN, AT LEAST TO ME, BUT I'LL PICK SOMETHING ELSE FOR THIS ASK!!!

THERE'S THIS MOMENT FROM THIS FIC THAT I JUST THINK IS. FUNNY FOR NO REASON:

“hey bro, quick question,” Sans pipes up from right behind him.

“NYHES?”

“where’s the telescope? it’s, uh. kinda not there anymore.”

“WHAT TELESCOPE?” Papyrus blurts.

They make a bit of prolonged eye-contact before the taller skeleton marches off into the trees behind them, leaving the shorter to trail behind.

LIKE. IDK JUST, THE HILARITY OF HIM ASKING WHAT TELESCOPE I LOVE HOW MUCH OF A DORK PAPYRUS IS AND HE'S SO BAD AT KEEPING A SECRET I JDSHHJGDJHGDHJDGSHJ

I'M SURE THERE'S OTHER JOKES AND STUFF I'VE MADE BUT THIS WAS, THE ONLY ONE I COULD THINK OF ON A WHIM OTHER THAN THE ONE I ALREADY MENTIONED HERE

🍓 What’s a fic you’ve written you feel is underrated?

UHHHHHHHHHH NEXT QUESTION--

🍍 What kind of AUs do you like? Are there any AUs you hate or just generally have beef with?

I LOVEEEEEEEE HORRORTALE AND UNDERFELL BECAUSE I'M BOTH AN ANGST JUNKIE AND HORROR JUNKIE >:DDDDDDDDD (PLUS I LOVE EDGE SO SO MUCH, LIKE. IT DEPENDS ON PEOPLE WRITING HIM BUT I ADORE HIM ALMOST AS MUCH AS ORIGINAL PAPS)

ALSO I REALLY LIKE STORYSHIFT, AFTERTALE (THOUGH I DON'T TALK ABOUT IT AT ALL HDSGDSJDS), AND @underjumble >:DDDDDD

AS FOR ONES I DON'T LIKE KJHJEJKGSDHJGSDHJ I THINK, DUSTTALE AND LUSTTALE HONESTLY,, LUSTTALE IS KIND OF. SELF-EXPLANATORY FOR WHY IT'S NOT ONE OF MY FAVORITES.

AS FOR DUSTTALE IT'S JUST. IT MAKES NO SENSE IN MY OPINION AND DSHJGDSJHDGJDSGJHJH JUST, I FEEL LIKE IT WAS CREATED SPECIFICALLY TO MAKE SANS EDGIER THAN EVEN HIS FANON VERSION AND KIND OF MAKES LIGHT OF MENTAL ILLNESS AS A WHOLE I THINK AND. IT JUST, RUBS ME THE WRONG WAY IN GENERAL, BUT I'M OPEN-MINDED TO IT I GUESS IF IT'S??? PORTRAYED WELL???? IDK IT MIGHT BE AN INTERESTING CONCEPT IF IT JUST. MADE MORE SENSE CHARACTER-WISE (MY MAIN GRIPE OF COURSE BEING, AS A SKELEBRO FANATIC, THE FACT THAT SANS WOULD THINK OF HURTING PAPYRUS AT ALL. ALSO HIS PLAN MAKES NO SENSE JUST, OBJECTIVELY LMAOOOO AGAIN I GET THAT HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE, DRIVEN MAD AT THIS POINT BUT?????? I'M SORRY BUT NONE OF IT JUST REALLY. ALIGNS WITH HIS CHARACTER)

[drabbletale]

ohhhh horrortale!sans and blueberry in Horrotale + there was only ONE bed and make it so fluffy, i would get a sugar rush xD love your writing!!

BLOODBERRY Fluffy Drabble

Okay so I know this doesn't follow the usual beats of the 'ONLY ONE BED' trope, but because they are staying in Horrortale, my mind made it go this way. ^^ ALSO I made it a drabble instead of headcanons because it got out of hand and this prompt makes more sense for a drabble. I hope you like it though! I've written this pairing only once before. Sorry if horrortale!Sans is OOC. Also I call him Blood, because that's the only version of HT!Sans that I really care about. (Although the ones with farmer sans are cute too)

tw: some minor references to violence relating to HT and a fight BB got in. No violence shown though. BB isn't super injured, just very worn out/tired. (Also, this is NOT yan/de+re... don't worry)

----

When Blue shows up at Blood’s doorstep again, his magic is dim from exhaustion and he looks ready to collapse. His breath is shaky. Blood looks up to his brother’s bedroom door, but it’s closed; Sugar is already sleeping and the house is quiet.

“Hi friend.” Even Blue’s voice is much quieter than it typically is. Usually when Blue ends up at his doorstep, it’s with a sly grin, and an energy that Blood is ready to eat right up… Not literally, but… well, maybe a little literally, in a more salacious sense.

It was clear that this was not Blue’s intention for tonight though. “hey, you uh… you sick?”

Blue’s small smile, half closed eye sockets as he looked up at Blood made his soul do a little flip. He was always amazed that he could still feel this way, after everything he had been through, he could still feel his emotions twist over and in on themselves as he looked at those pretty bright eye lights. Fuck, Blue was beautiful.

“No, but there was an attack and… Don’t give me that look, I didn’t die, right? None of us did, but it was quite a fight…” Blue backed off a little with a heavy sigh, turning his head to look to the side. Blood saw then, a large gash across Blue’s left cheekbone.

Blood reached up and stroked his thumb against it. Rather than wincing, Blue leaned into the touch, his eye sockets closing as the tension in his shoulders seeped out. He wasn’t in pain, which means the wound was healed by someone, at least. “blue…”

“Do you still love me, now that my face is maimed?” He opened his eyes to give Blood that adorable cheeky smile that he did when he was telling a corny joke, but Blood didn’t find it funny. He raised a disapproving brow bone at him, despite his mind racing tenfold at Blue even mentioning ‘love’. What a concept, for Blood to fall in love. Blue’s smile spread across his face and he huffed a short laugh, wrapping his arms around Blood’s neck.

There was once a time that he would have shoved Blue away and out the door. There was a time, longer ago than that, that he would have used the opportunity to take a bite out of his shoulder or-….. No need to linger on that though.

“so you’re jus’ lookin’ for a place to sleep tonight, huh?”

“Aw, come on, can’t I just miss you?” Blood didn’t reply, he felt almost choked up at the implication. It was good, too good. What the hell was happening right now? “I’m just… I just don’t want to be alone tonight and I… I miss you.” Their eyes locked again and Blue leaned up to nuzzle against Blood’s cheek.

He tried to slow his breathing, reaching behind Blue to close the door, as he replied. “you’re uh always welcome here, baby blue.” He traced his fingertips down Blue’s spine, smiling hard when Blue leaned against him fully. He was near collapsing in Blood’s arms, but he didn’t mind.

Blue refused anything to eat, saying he was too tired, yet complained that he wasn’t so tired that he needed to be carried to bed. Blood insisted though, and told him to hush, as Sugar needed his beauty sleep. There were no further complaints as he carried Blue bridal-style, up the decrepit stairs and to his room. Thankfully, both the bedrooms had kept their doors, despite all that had happened. The furniture and carpets had been easy enough to replace once they received aide from other AUs… the infrastructure of the actual house, not so much.

Still, Sugar refused to leave their home and Blood would never abandon him.

His new little love interest didn’t seem to mind, thankfully, that their world was a disaster. That he himself was a disaster.

He closed his door with his back and walked to the bed, setting down Blue with care. He could tell that his little buddy was already starting to fall asleep in his arms, but managed to press himself against the wall enough to let Blood slide under his thin blanket with him.

Never had he dreamed that Blue would want anything more from him that a quick tumble here or there. Now, Blue curled his body around Blood’s, arm resting across his chest, face pressed close under his chin. He was asleep the instant he closed his eyes.

They had fallen asleep together countless times, but this was different. It was more emotional, more intimate. Holy shit, Blood felt high. Or… was he in love?

Was Blue right?

He hoped that Blue would stick around long enough for Blood to find out the easy way. With smiles and comfort and kisses and sex.

Not with the pain of a further abandonment.

Blue was never the type to walk away from something he cared about. He also wasn’t the type to pretend he cared about something unless his very life was in danger. And Blood had never hurt him or threatened to. In fact, Blue had always seemed far too comfortable around him, almost at ease in a near empty world.

He had once joked about liking the fact that no one would take him away from Blue. Did Blue love him back…?

Did Blue love him? Blue was nearly laying on top of him now. Blood laughed and kissed the top of his skull and finally surrendered to sleep, happier than he had been decades.

[ratsoh-writes]

Oki doki! Here's my match-up info! :D

Personality: I'm very friendly and open to people I know well. I prefer to stick with people that I know rather than meeting new people, and get very shy around people I don't know. I like to banter with my friends and family, and I'm good at emphasizing with people. I can be very protective over my friends and will throw hands with anybody that messes with them. I like to make people laugh and will go out of my way to help others. I try to be confident when flirting but uh. that usually doesn't go well and I end up flustered anyway.

Hobbies: I like to bake and cook to relieve stress. I like to draw and write in my spare time (though I can get very fixated on my project and stay up way too late), and I also like to go outside and take pictures of nature. I have about 40 succulents that I take care of, as well. I like to play video games when I don't have anything else to do.

Dislikes/pet peeves: I don't like people who refuse to listen to what others have to say, especially if they're wrong about something. I also don't like being teased about mistakes I've made even if they're made in good humor.

Deal breakers: Someone who's mean for no reason, someone who won't listen to me, someone who doesn't show they appreciate me.

Attractive qualities: Always looking for opportunities to grow and be better, likes to banter, knows when to reassure me that it's okay to make mistakes, takes interest in my hobbies.

Strengths and flaws: I'm very good at adapting to the situations I'm in. I'm good at emphasizing with people and finding ways to comfort them. However, I tend to prioritize others above myself and internalize negative comments about myself even if I don't necessarily think they're true.

Basic physical description: 5'5, pale skin, white hair with a blue streak, blue eyes with glasses.

You could’ve easily fit a lot of the skeletons, but I think I’ll match you with…….OAK (horrortale sans)!

Oak is a good boy for those who can be sensitive to teasing. He’s very gentle in the way he treats his SOs. Plus oak knows better than anyone else how annoying getting your flaws pointed out can be. Don’t tease him about his memory and he won’t tease about your insecurities.

If you like a guy that shows appreciation, then oak is a great one to have! His main form of affection is all physical, but it also makes it really obvious to see how much he likes you. It’s kinda hard not to feel his love when he’s always purring at you lol.

Everyone forgets that oak is just as good a cook as willow. He just needs someone with him watching in case. He’s more than happy to spend some time cooking with you. You two can make it a date.

Never ever trust oak with your succulents. He’s pretty much cursed to accidentally kill any plant he’s in charge of

It’s pretty convenient that you love nature. Oak basically has the woods behind his home memorized. He’s more than happy to take you and show you all the animals and pretty spots back there!

A few of the other guys you could’ve worked with was peaches, honey, Star and lilac

[vesperlionheart]

Dude. I read your fic, The Last of the Real Ones. It took me 5 days. I am mesmerized. Thank you for blessing my eyes. I loved your take on all the boys. It was refreshing and I can honestly say that I couldn’t pick a favorite because of how well written they were. Usually my favorite is Rus, but this time it was all of them. They had so many good points to all of them and they all made my heart happy that they were all such deep characters. Thank you for writing it. Please rest as long as you need before your next fic. I can’t wait to read what you come out with next 💚💚💚

That's a huge chunk to go through, even in five days, I hope you took your breaks and stayed hydrated! Thank you for the shout out and support. I'm glad the characters were enjoyable and the story engaging.

I've got a couple of ideas cooking right now and I wanna flesh them out a bit more before I drop anything new for reading. The first idea deals with a reader in the Dusttale (genocide) world who hops to horrortale (neutral) and then to the pacifist timeline where more than just one world's skeletons have ended up. That has over 75K written. The other idea deals with a reader who gets purposefully dumped on an island, only to be rescued by Rus and Black who were just kicked out of the larger skeleton group and in need of a third helper. This one has over 60K written, but neither fic has an end in sight and I kinda need that figured out before I go any further.

Hope you're doing well too!

[crusnikroxas]

I'm gonna keep sending asks and talking Abt your fic bc it gives me so much serotonin, but I was recently just thinking of Papyrus in your fic

How you still have him make mistakes, and even when he was confused and hurt by the notion MC would even hurt someone, he still cared... Idk it's so endearing how he made a mistake but it's obvious he still cared, and cares a lot Abt mc, tho I know him and mc do need to have a lil better of a conversation Abt it....

I am so excited for the next update, but pls !! Take your time! Your health is more important, we'll be waiting for you!

Aaaaahh, thank you for the asks! It always makes me so happy when people get curious about lore and stuff, hehehe 😊♥️

Yeah, poor Papyrus 🥺 I wanted to show that, you know, anybody can make a mistake - and everyone reacts differently when they're hurt and confused about something. With Undyne....yeeeeah, we know how that came out 😅 But I thought in Papyrus' regard....well, even in the 'Disbelief' AU, he still holds some of that kindness within him, even when he's intent on making sure the player just stops, y'know? It's not quite the same situation with y/n, obviously, but I thought it was important to show that even when he's in turmoil like that, he still has a kind heart. Or soul, whatever. 🤣

And yes, they're gonna have to talk a lot about it all - obviously, y/n understands why it happened, and while she's upset about it, obviously.....it's going to take poor Paps a lot longer to get over. I'm so sorry in advance for making the poor boi suffer 😅😂

Ah, thank you >.< At the moment, I'm writing the next update chapter for my Horrortale fic - then, I'm kind of drafting....well, the first chapter of a book that I hope I can take to a publisher at some point >///< But! That does not mean I will be stopping the fic whatsoever 🤣 So after I've done that, I'll be working on the next update - I'm so excited to get it out, it's something I've been plotting since I started the fic, and I can't wait for you guys to react to the lore I've been foreshadowing for soooo freakin' long now, ahahaha 😂♥️♥️♥️
