Drew Mettaton’s Game Show sign from Undertale. Mettaton’s my most favorite Undertale character so I knew I had to draw this. This is what it ended up looking like and I couldn’t be happier with the result honestly.

YouTube vid of me drawing it:

(Also please check out my YouTube channel, Orange Lefty, because I have a lot of other Mettaton fanart there and I like to post videos of it >.< He’s the best Undertale character and you’ll never change my mind!)

Wait ok monngos ask is also making me think in general abt kanako and chujins magic. I want to know what type of bullet patterns they have. Whether they have any cool abilities like cerobas hp depletion or starlos slow-motion. Whether they even HAD strong magical abilities at all. I must know.

[signanothername]

@meloveanimeforreal7604 your ask glitched so I’m answering with a screenshot chchch

I actually have my own thoughts on their stats and how they changed under Nightmare

Killer is actually canonically shown to have 99999 LV, but later, Rahaf stated people can choose whichever LV they wanted for him, so it’s basically up for interpretation

Murder is canonically mostly at 19 LV, in some timelines, he reaches 20 LV

Horror has never been given a canon LV as far as I know (correct me if I’m wrong)

That being said, in my lil version of Nightmare, he has a “no killing unless necessary” rule, but generally, Nightmare can be a bit lenient if MTT resort to killing as long as it does not affect the negativity in a bad way

As in, if killing someone results in the negativity decreasing, than Nightmare would be pissed, but say if a monster was part of a family and their death resulted in a negativity increase due to their family’s grief, then Nightmare lets it slide

Nightmare only orders MTT not to go overboard with killing, his orders are usually within “Kill as many as necessary to generate a sufficient amount of negativity, otherwise, torture or terrorize”

Murder never ever kills anyone, nor does he tortures anyone, he usually hopes Nightmare would simply assign him a supply run job (which doesn’t always happen) and so if he were to do anything to help with negativity, he resorts to terrorizing only, as in just scaring people by blasting his gaster blaster in random directions, etc, but he never kills or tortures, these people are not part of his own AU, he has no business here, it causes him a lot of problems with Nightmare, but Murder prefers to deal with Nightmare’s abuse than live with more blood on his hands than necessary (I think you can already guess that Murder would deal with forced killing at some point no? >:) )

His stats are very Undertale like, they still follow the same formula and are pretty much uncorrupted, whenever anyone checks him, they get the exact same stats as you’d see in game, his LV stays on 19

Horror would simply follow Nightmare’s orders usually, sometimes during a bad mood swing he might end up killing people, but still stays within the limits of Nightmare’s rules, Horror is generally more responsible for torturing than killing, he’s sadistic af and finds joy in the screams of mercy when people plead for their lives (he might or might not cope with the rage brewing inside him from having to deal with Nightmare and his abuse by turning that rage to sadistic joy when torturing innocents)

His stats are semi-corrupted, his HP doesn’t show up at all, that is because Horror is technically already dead, from his head injury, therefore, his HP can no longer reflect him, his stats simply finds difficulty to assign a number to him, I like to think his LV is somewhere in the middle, not as high as Murder’s but not low either, but it definitely increased a few points after he started working under Nightmare

Killer doesn’t kill unless ordered to, he just tortures and terrorizes, he’s generally apathetic to people’s screams for mercy, only doing his job like the good killing machine he is, at stage 2, he does find his job “fun” but in a way that’s more thrilling to his restless dissociative mind and body then any actual joy, he’s curious and fascinated, not happy, he can’t latch onto his emotions at stage 2 anyway, but I think it’s clear that he carries so much guilt for it that’s only apparent when at stage 1

Killer’s stats are extremely messed up, they no longer truly reflect him at all, his stats are like a corrupted file, it isn’t working as it should be, his HP, AT and DF keep glitching and changing constantly, unable to truly settle on one single number, his 99999 LV would be the closest thing to “consistent” in reflection to him, but even then, it’s corrupted, glitching like the rest but still stays at 99999 LV

His LV doesn’t truly reflect his level of violence, but rather, his soul’s unnatural state, his Determination is way too excessive and his code is way too messed up

An HP can show you that it’s at 1, but no matter how much he’s hit he doesn’t die, or it could show you that it’s at 99 and he dies from one hit

In short, his stats aren’t to be taken on face value as they no longer truly reflect him beyond showing how messed up his state is

Nightmare doesn’t kill unless necessary or when he deems it in his interest, or in some cases, when anger takes the better of him, he finds sadistic joy in the misery of others and a sense of power that he just loves feeling, it makes him feel untouchable, unreachable, undeniably invincible, and by extension, it eases the constant fear of everything and everyone around him (something he’s in denial of)

Nightmare simply put, has no stats, he can be checked, but his stats are never going to be shown, he’s too much of an outcode for his stats to truly show anymore, not to mention, his state of being a semi-god, but the further someone is disconnected from their home, the more likely their stats aren’t going to show or be corrupted when shown, Nightmare falls under the “not shown” category (Killer’s stats’ corruption is also enhanced by his disconnection from his world)

[o-sunny-day]

Oh right. The other one.

CW: Undertale rant/analysis

Ive played Undertale- hundreds of times. and lately ive reflected on how the game is supposed to make you feel IN THE MOMENT- since ive kinda forgotten a lot of that. Because of the aforementioned ✨“hundreds of times”✨

Everything ofc still feels just as captivating, but nothings surprising because im not playing it from the perspective of someone who has absolutely no idea whats going to happen next. Sometimes I overlook and forget how the little details are supposed to make you feel/think about the characters. Like how Undyne is implied to be an abusive boss. After you get to know her, then replay, you hear how Papyrus talks about her at first, and see their interaction as you enter Waterfall, and you completely understand!

But BEFORE- youre like “oooohhh she’s threatening him-“

On this topic, I rewatched some playthroughs, and saw their first reactions to geno papyrus death, and I realized. that this room placement. IS SO COOL!!!!

Normally its like- yep! I just befriended/beat papyrus, time to continue on my way- oo hi sans! sure, ill go to Grillbys with you! Even on replays, you’re not really excepting him in any room hes in, im just like “oh yep, theres the man.”

But when you kill Papyrus for the first time, usually on a geno route. That same thing kicks in. You’re not predicting him to be there cause youre focused on the room youre in currently, but when you GET THERE youre like “oh yeah and thats where Sans is” but he’s NOT THERE and you stop for a millisecond and go “oh, no yeah, that makes sense.”

…the silence doesn’t help either.

Its worse that he’s all over the underground too, not just in the start of Waterfall. Even not seeing him in front of the mtt resort is just a slap in the face 😭

If youve gotten to the phase of killing people on purpose to see what will happen, youve also gotten to the phase of KNOWING theres gonna be consequences, so Sans not being there shoudnt hit as hard as it does BUT IT DOES (at least for me)

The typical reactions to Monster death in general that you cant avoid are Undyne and Sans’ speeches, and neutral run phonecalls. DIALOGUE. things that appear because of what you did. But with Sans its not what he does or says (up until the judgment hall) its what he doesn’t do.

He doesn’t bother to show up, to say anything to you because what is there to say??? Ignoring how personal it is for a sec- Sans knows this isnt your first time playing, but doesn’t comment on it (much). Right now he still believes the anomaly just wants to be happy, so gives the benefit of the doubt.

That is until you kill the dude that is impossible to kill on accident, or argue in self defense.

Now Sans knows the anomaly just wants to know what will happen. Doesn’t care if its bad or not, they’re just curious, so theres no point.

STILL he wants them to reset and do something ELSE so he halfway pleads with them in the judgment hall to rethink what they’ve done. The fact that he asks an answerable question feels important to me, like hes searching for something, ANY reason. But maybe hes trying to make you see that- there was no reason. Youre DUMB and you should RESET because- WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THIS????

What I also find really powerful even on replays, is the silence after he drops lines like this. Especially the judgment hall question. Sometimes I do sit there and soak in the silence like- “jesus. Yeah, why DID i do that?”

My main point of this entire thing is, I LOVE this game, I LOVE Papyrus and his impact on the game even when he isnt there, and I wish I could play it for the first time again, and fall in love with it all over again, but alas, hitting myself with a rock to screw up my memory only works 17% of the time,

so im happy enough sticking with changing my perspective, and taking a moment to remember what it felt like to accidentally kill toriel and realize your actions have consequences, to beat Undyne the Undying, to hug Asriel, to hear that Undertale was getting a “sequel”, and to hear that dreaded line, “Then why did you kill my brother.” all for the first time again.

Naming Easter Eggs

Despite the chosen name being METTA in the comic, in a theorical full Gear-Shift game, you would be able to name the prototype.

(o) = Allowed (x) = Not Allowed

Metta/Mett/MTT (o): Let's put on a show. Darling!

Mohii (x): umm..... please no......... Napsta/Blooky (x): NONONONONNONONONONONONONOO (goes off screen)

PAPYRU (o): THIS IS ALLOWED. I DECLARE!!

Alphys (x): D... Don't do that. Alphy (o): Oh, I... okay!

Chara (x): The true name... My name. Pick something else.

Asriel/Azzy (x): Plagiarism is the biggest form of flattery!... but it's also a crime.

Toriel (x): Oh, I'm very sorry. But I don't think I can allow that. Tori (o): Oh... I, believe that is acceptable.

Asgore (x): That would make things very confusing. Gorey (x): My point still stands.

Undyne (x): Suuree. go right ahead... BUT MY LAWYERS WILL WHOOP YOUR ASS!

sans (x): nuh uh. ness (o): ok.

Gerson (o): HARHAR! Why not? Muffet (x): Sure! That will be 9999G for the royalties! Catty/Bratty (o): Like, whatever, sure. QC (o): Heh, could be good for business. BPants (o): Tell that human to give me back my stuff while you're at it. Grillb (o): ..........different enough.

AAAAAA (o): Darling, please, that's very unprofessional. Mercy/Murder (o): Subtlety is soo yesterday! No (o): Harhar... har. Alright then, smartie. Frisk (x): The name you want... yet he won't give it to you... FR-IS (o): This name will make your live a living hell. Proceed anyway? (Activates Hard Mode. Since there's no letters, IS is used to replace 14)

Can I get ut, uf, and us sans reaction to their human crush being invited to the mtt restaurant with the main monster group. And in the middle of dinner a spotlight turns on the crush and they start profesionally singing and making their way onstage like they rehearsed it a hundred times. ( kind of how mtt randomly started singing in the game) And at the end all the monsters applaud, and when asked about it, they say mtt asked them to be apart of the show for that night and they wanted to try it. And could I get ut alphys and undyne's reaction to it too, but it's their friend not crush.

Undertale Sans - He's so confused about what's going on, but he's rolling with it. He is quite impressed, even though he has no idea you could sing. You learn something new every day he guesses. He's charmed even more.

Undertale Alphys - She gives you a panic look as everyone starts looking at you, and by extension at her, kinda just standing next to you awkwardly. What's going on??? She is blushing uncontrollably, and as soon as you start moving, she goes to hide under the table lol.

Undertale Undyne - She, uh, didn't get what you were doing and she followed you on stage. She is now standing on the stage, very confused, staring at you as you keep singing. What's happening? When everyone applauds, she escapes, feeling awkward. So you didn't want her on stage at all, did you? Welp. That was weird.

Underswap Sans - He's hypnotized, a bit confused, but also feeling very hot right now. He looks at everyone wondering if it's because of the lights, but no one else is sweating so it's probably just him. When you're done, everyone starts to worry about him. He has to flee to the toilets to cool down lol.

Underfell Sans - He's staring at your butt the whole time and he's not hiding it, smiling like a shark when you notice him. You briefly miss a word, blushing, as he smirks at you. Yeah, he definitely likes the show.

[ceruleasea]

Ramble about the MTT Resort Dinner Scene (don’t take this too seriously it’s very self indulgent)

“you must really wanna go home. hey. i know the feeling buddo.”

This obviously has some pretty big implications for Sans and by extension Papyrus. They were mentioned to have just showed up in Snowdin Town one day and asserted themselves, but this also implies that they used to have a home that they can’t go back to for some reason. (Misses home and can’t return, says he’s happy he’s a lia- sorry what? My gravity falls phase didn’t kick in there wdym???)

“though . . . maybe sometimes it’s better to take what’s given to you.”

This makes me think that maybe at some point, Sans wanted to return to wherever he came from, but just had to accept that it wasn’t going to happen. Or this could also just refer to the resets, and how he just has to deal with the fact that they’ll eventually happen, and he can’t do anything about it. 

“down here you’ve already got food, drink, friends . . .”

The way this directly parallels Sans’ dialogue in the fight against him in genocide when he talks about how maybe the anomaly just wanted to be happy, and they would stop all this. This is Sans trying to get them to think about what they have, and maybe, that they would be happy with all the people they already met. Added onto with “is what you have to do. . . really worth it?” He wants them (and by extension you, though he doesn’t know that) to think about what you’ve done so far, and what you have. Especially with how this scene shows up in pacifist more-so than other routes, it’s like he’s asking you whether you’re really ready to stop playing the game and let them have their happy ending

There’s something to be said about how he even feels comfortable telling you a story in the first place. He’s a fairly closed off person who doesn’t share a lot of what he thinks. The fact that he’s willing to share a story with you, shows that he trusts you, in pacifist, at least. 

“fortunately, deep in the forest. . . there’s this HUGE locked door. And it’s perfect for practicing knock-knock jokes.”

I love this line. Because of course Sans would see a giant door and want to make knock knock jokes, but also this tells me that he doesn’t really have somewhere else to practice these jokes, and so he makes due with a random door in the woods. It’s a seemingly inconspicuous line, but if you pay attention it shows you how lonely Sans can be sometimes.

“then she just howls with laughter. like it’s the best joke she’s heard in a hundred years. so I keep ‘em coming, and she keeps laughing.”

This reads so much to me like someone who tries their hardest to make people happy, because once he realizes that Toriel likes the jokes, he keeps telling them. Reminds me of how he tried to give Frisk a good time in the underground so they’d be happy enough to stop resetting, at least, since he thought that they might be unhappy. Sans may not think that big actions matter, what matters most to him is making the people he cares about happy

“she’s the best audience i’ve ever had.” Something about how people don’t really like the puns, so he was genuinely happy to find someone who appreciates them. I personally feel like his puns are an attempt to cheer Papyrus up (because he does like puns no matter what he says to the contrary) but it may seem to him that Papyrus doesn’t appreciate them. Also “audience” just makes me think of putting on a show, which makes sense, cause the jokes are usually something he does around people he doesn’t know as well, at least, that’s how it starts. I think it’s a gauge of character lol, he does it with Frisk too to see how they respond to some silly jokes

It’s interesting to me at least, that Sans and Toriel connect through a door. Because closed doors are often seen as roadblocks to your goals (cough, leaving the ruins) but this closed door resulted in a great connection between two people. It seems kind of symbolic to me, that it’s because of their circumstances, (their closed doors if you will) that they were able to meet at all. Interesante

“one day, though, I noticed she wasn’t laughing as much. i asked her what was up.”

We all pretty much know how good Sans is at reading facial expressions, but this line also makes it clear that he’s pretty good at noticing tone of voice too. Also, this line makes it seem like he’s not one to avoid potentially uncomfortable topics, seeing as he immediately asked Toriel what was up. Kind of like how in various routes he warns you about stuff outright and is pretty blunt about it. “You’re gonna have a bad time.” anyone? Sans never seemed to me like the type to avoid an issue

“now, I hate making promises.”

this is really interesting to me too, because like. There’s obviously the possibility of a reset, rendering any promise void the second it happens, but also this has me wondering if he ever made any promises that backfired on him (could this be related to the “Don’t forget” note?)

“someone who sincerely likes bad jokes. . . has an integrity you can’t say ‘no’ to.”

I don’t think this is just about jokes. Toriel listens to him, they’re there for each other even though they’re both terribly lonely. And judging by how she knows who Papyrus is in the pacifist ending, they clearly talked about each other's lives a little bit.

“buddy. You’d be dead where you stand.”

 This feels less to me like a threat, and more like a warning from Sans. That you shouldn’t go down a dark path, because someone really thinks the best of you. It also adds context to the start of the game when he follows you, he’s trying to gauge what you’re even like. Especially because he immediately tells you to lighten up after this line, almost like how you know it wouldn’t apply to you in a run like this anyway. Also there is something to be said about how he’s facing away from you here, almost like he doesn’t want to look straight at you, maybe he’s ashamed that this was a possibility of what could have been?

“you haven’t died a single time. hey, what’s that look supposed to mean? am i wrong . . . ?”

Yet another example of Sans immediately reading facial expressions. Also simultaneously confirming to himself that resets do in fact happen, and they’re caused by Frisk. They basically sold themselves out to be the anomaly by the look on their face, though they probably don’t know that. 

“take care of yourself, kid. ‘cause someone really cares about you.”

The way that this could be interpreted a whole bunch of ways- 1. Toriel, because she had him make the promise to begin with, 2. Papyrus, because he has to be alive for this encounter to happen, and he really cares about Frisk, and 3. Sans himself, because sure, he doesn’t really say very openly how much he cares about people, his actions say so more, like taking Frisk out to dinner and actually opening up a little

The last thing I have to talk about this the music. I absolutely love that it is a more somber variation of “sans”, it really helps to convey that he is opening up more, and therefore showing a bit more of his somber side, especially with the theme of rain. I like to think that the “rain” is symbolic of the surface, because it rains up there but not in the underground, so “somewhere else” is some kind of vague way of referring to the surface that he thinks he’ll never reach

Anyway ramble over :D

[what-have-i-unleashed]

4 with whoever from mtt?

4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in?

oooohhh this is interesting.... the first thing that came to me is horror in the hunger games, because it's just that obvious lol. he's petty, competitive, and extremely ruthless, so i'd like to see how he fares in the games. would be a great watch, especially if slowly (but maybe improbably) he starts to bond with other contestants... let's see if he'll betray them too (yes he will, like who are we kidding smh)

killer in a dokidoki literature club au would be extremely entertaining... even more if he's in the role of the main character, being effectively trapped inside the game with no progression. how would he deal with all these code-breaking anomalies hmmmm.... and also i just love to put killer through the horrors so yeah :3

and dust.... lol please i'd love to put him in a dating show a la love island because it'd be so fucking funny 😭 literally i had some writings about this in the past but uhhh i'm too ashamed to dig them back up now sorry 😔 but you know, he's my favorite shipping bicycle so a dating show is the most obvious answer, but also i'd love to see him skewer some people there and turn it into a survival show from the perspectives of the contestants lol

[carlyraejepsans]

8!

"common fandom opinion everyone is wrong about"

oh man what a buffet of choice HAHAHA. I'm gonna go with Treating "chara"/the fallen human and the player as entirely separate entities like kris' conflict with us in deltarune.

i am 100% convinced chara is the player character in undertale, and who we are meant to represent ingame. there is a point where they separate from us, but that is an extremely specific instance at the end of the genocide run, as the culmination of the game mechanic where we textually "grow distant from ourselves". the fallen human isn't inherently separate from us, we have to choose to amputate them from ourselves through our actions.

which is so insanely cool meta-wise and i am TIRED of people sleeping on it!!!

[werecat1234]

Hi me is here for the ask game :3

Question 21, 22 and 25 for the MTT?

Alright! I'll sort the answers into each character here!!

Killer:

21: My favorite thing to do for him is to be teasing, or just to have him alternate between seriousness and childishness, be it from mood swings or something else, along with his soul stages. Also angst with Nightmare or trauma from Chara. My least favorite thing to do for him is writing hallucinations of the others of his AU, be it victims or of Frisk and Chara, for the pure reason of it's very overwhelming.

22: Oooohhhhh this is a good one! Ok for Killer, I love when people go in depth on his trauma, be it from Chara or from Nightmare, and when they write his breakdowns or thought processes accurately. Even the hallucination scenes, because I may get overwhelmed, but I love to read it! I hate it when people pass up on him being extremely smart outside of emotions. Like, he doesn't understand others' feelings, but otherwise he's extremely intelligent, and I feel there's so many missed opportunities with him! Other than that, it's mostly when he's extremely mischaracterized.

25: First impression.... Hmmm... ok this is a bit difficult. In the beginning, I always knew he was complex, and I did a lot of research when I got into the fandom. I originally saw similarities and sometimes confused things with him and Dust, but this was very early on, and I was going off of Gacha reaction videos, and then I found the encyclopedias in the comment sections, then I got into the source comics, and then I kept digging and I'm still finding more information. I can't remember what I really thought of him at first other than I liked his character, but now I know how much more in depth he is and I feel I can better understand how complex he really is.

Dust:

21: Favorite thing to write for Dust is mental breakdowns, arguments/conversations with Phantom Papyrus, or for him to act differently between different characters to show off dynamics. Least favorite thing... Figuring out when to use all of his abilities since in MM he can copy the abilities of the boss monsters he kills, and figuring out which abilities he has and how he uses them can be difficult.

22: Alright, I love in fics when he's the angsty alcoholic/smoker that can either be chill or calm to talk to, or he can be crazy and just a paranoid bastard. When he's written in his AU, going through his thought process is insanely fun to read, along with the breakdowns and everything else! Something I don't like reading from Dust? Easy, him being a silent emo who says very little.

25: For this, my first impression of him was "oh hey, he's pretty crazy but also awesome!" and while that's changed overtime as I've found out more information, it can usually depend on if it's Murder or Dust being portrayed. For Murder, I love the character, and I love Dust's character too, it's just when he's characterized as an emo it drives me nuts, and I'm honestly partial to a Canon Dusttale Sans more than anything, which can be extremely difficult to find, but other than that I still love his character and his design.

Horror:

21: Favorite thing to write for Horror has gotta be his overprotectiveness, his temper, his insults since he sometimes doesn't have a filter when upset, and his mental breakdowns. It's been really difficult for me to find out his personality and characterization in the past, so still figuring that out has to be one of my least favorite things to do, since he's bipolar and can change on a dime.

22: What I love when reading fics for Horror has to be his paranoia, along with his mood swings and messed up thought processes. Like, I try and give him overprotective qualities, since he can be extremely protective, especially when it comes to his brother, and he also has very good leadership skills, like how he leads Snowdin for the most part and is responsible for their food source. Sometimes him being feral/animalistic is also super fun to read, but there's a fine line between rational and feral not many people have done. Something I dislike in fics? When he likes eating humans or when he's written as a super nice guy, because he's not! He's a hypocritical jackass I have to fight tooth and nail to react to things how I need him to, and I need to play off of several other personality traits in order to get everything to play out!

25: Alright, this one's fun. At first, I didn't know much about him, and I'm honestly still figuring things out. Like, at first I was like, "Gore, cool!" Then it was like "When he has food, he's more like Sans and will probably be more understanding" (He's not. He's still an ass, he's just less likely to chop your head off if you offend him). As I learned more about him and read through Horrortale, he's gotten more complex, and I can make sense of his character in a way, even if I'm not the best at writing it, but all in all he's still a very interesting character to me.

[frogonamelon]

Hello! I decided to take a crack at redesigning one of the oldest ocs I have!

Echo was a self-insert Undertale oc I originally made eight years ago. Looking back on it, I was just starting to come out of a... not so great time in my life and having a fandom to get really into that wasn't horror was very good for my mental health (and sleep schedule).

The original concept behind her was human (me) dies and is turned into a monster through ~*magic*~. While her design isn't bad, it doesn't match Undertale's character design or me, so I wanted to give her another shot.

Design Process Below:

First things first, she's not going to look like an angel anymore. It feels very 'the first character you make in DnD is an elf and they're graceful and nmnmnm'. Having her concept be that she's a human who dies and is resurrected was a great opportunity to make them a ghost who possesses a robot like MTT or MMM.

Inspirations:

Instead of Echo being a sexy anime robot like MTT, I wanted to take inspiration from some of my interests both then and now.

MTT (obviously) and some au variations like US! Napstabot

Prophet and Prototype from One Shot. While I don't think I've ever mentioned how much I liked this game to anyone in 2016, but I LOVED this game. Honestly, it still holds up and the soundtrack is great to write essays to. The original Echo was actually partially inspired by Alula from that game, and I wanted to bring some of that love back for the redesign.

That one Dj from Deltarune Ch 2 was also an inspiration. Combined with Prophet and Prototype, they really helped me draw and emote the digital camera inspired face.

I wanted to challenge myself and show my growth as an artist by emoting something without most of a face. I also really like photography and wanted to bring some of that in.

Pieces I wanted to keep from original Echo's design:

The one eye

The use of wings- this isn't direct, but I wanted to use some moth shape language in their head with the antennae and hair as a small call back to the angel theme of the original

The name- She's an Echo of the human she used to be

Echo flowers- They like stories, videos, music, etc. While I didn't keep the single echo flower in the hair, I wanted to include this element in the ghost design

The almost monochromatic color scheme- While tinted by the mirror, 2016 has a very blue color scheme. I decided to throw the rich aesthetic blues out the window and go with a neon green color palette. She's passionate and can be a little annoying at times but it's never malicious. They lose at hide and seek every time.

Things that I wanted to include but don't have a clean category for:

The segments of their chest look like autopsy scars

The combination of one eye and potentially four arms is just so fitting. ADHD nah not me who's that never heard of it

Why I chose green: I would either be a kindness or patience soul and green has just kind of become 'my color' as the years have gone by for haha name pun reasons so they get to look like the outside of a watermelon

I imagine them as pretty short like somewhere in the Frisk range maybe a little shorter. It just makes the big hair and hovering more fun, like maybe she uses them to be taller when getting serious or to hover over puddles.

Its either shorts or cargo pants there is no in between and the jacket is more formal looking to reflect the fact that she is an adult despite their height.

Dusttale: Revived | Character Concepts Pt.1

I’m going to be creating front & back views of character designs for what I’ve decided to call this “AU”, Dusttale: Revived.

In these blogs, I’ll show the design concept for a character along with a brief description of their role in the story.

As I stated before, this story is gonna focus more on the NPCs (at least in the first half). So most of these design concepts are gonna be side/background characters from the game (there are gonna be main/boss characters in the story as well).

Now onto the first 2 character designs:

Dr. Robert “Bob” Temmer:

Dr. Temmer is a scientist that works alongside Dr. Serif on testing & experimenting with the revised DT injections & their side effects.

He usually wears a tired & annoyed expression when out in public, but does get a hint of smile when his wife visits him at lunch.

He doesn’t fully agree with Dr. Serif’s way doing things, but doesn’t exactly have a lot of authority or power to fight back. So he just mumbles his complaints & avoids causing trouble.

Mrs. Temantha “Temmie” Temmer:

Temantha, or just Temmie, is the lovely wife & #1 supporter of Dr. Temmer.

They both use to live back in Waterfall in Temmie Village, but after an incident, they moved into the MTT Hotel (which was renovated to act as housing for the remaining survivors).

While many find her annoying & a bit too lovey-dovey with her husband, Temmie is able to make the most sour individual wear the biggest smile.

These are just the basic designs for now. I’ll most likely be creating more detailed character sheets for characters, but I just want to get a basic design concept & backstory done first.

Can we get a timeline of your comics? If you have a timeline- then is there a link somewhere?

Uuh tbh I never made a linear timeline? I’m genuinely bad at linear storytelling, that’s why I prefer to make comics based on whichever suits my fancy regardless of whether it’s in the past or future

It’s also a bit complicated with the idea of portraying different killers shzhzhhd

I have made a little timeline here talking about the ages, and when MTT were recruited, but it’s just that one quick timeline chhchc

But I can try to order them for you? And at least mention for some of them where they are timeline wise

Ok so order will be from past - present- future, and I’ll try to note anything of interest

Not all comics will be included, since some of them are made either for fun, or they aren’t necessarily part of the timeline, just a silly what if side comic, etc

I did try to include all comics of interest, including those that were ask oriented, if there’s a comic you have in mind that I haven’t included in the timeline feel free to ask about it, cause I could’ve easily missed something (I made so many comics my lord dbdbbxbxb)

With all that out of the way let’s go
