#reader x bad sanses

[kaygee-doodles]

Ok so, the boys probably don’t want kids much, but how would they react if Reader already had a kid/little sibling or something she was taking care of before they met her? (I get the distinct feeling Dust hates kids for…some reason)

Error scuttles away like that octopus gif.

Nightmare is slow to warm up. Children are unpredictable at best and at worst, destructive. But if it will get him a moments peace, fine, he will read them a bedtime story.

Horror is very worried. Small Thing with Sudden Movements make him a little twitchy, but this is important, so he will remember and persevere. He makes a good jungle gym.

Killer commences mischief as soon as reasonable. He's pretty good with kids, since a large amount are just little gremlins like him. If your nibling is a nerd though, he'll leave them to Nightmare and just bring them lore from universes he visits.

Dust got used to your little ward during his various visitations, and has helped with math homework more than a few times. He's pretty chill about it, after he got over his 'avoiding emotional attachment' phase.

Can I try Horror's hat? It seems big, so probably won't fit my head, but I want to try-

there you go buddy-

What if you made a plushie version of the avian boys and gifted it to them as a courting gift after you figured out they were trying to court you? (ft, Sans, Red, Axe, Dust, Killer, Nightmare & Error)

Sans would be super flustered, and super appreciative. He'd keep the plushie in his nest all cozy-like and show you it excitedly whenever you turn up to visit him.

Red secretly loves it. He eyes it with faint amusement and he's really happy that you want to court him as well, but he's not going to be like Sans when it comes to it. You don't think he likes it until you end up in his nest one day and your plushie is sitting there in prime condition.

Axe loves the plush- and loves to get you to smother it in your scent so he can snuggle with it at night. Sometimes he hands it back for a day so that you can snuggle with it while he has his scent on it.

Dust probably stares at his look alike before simply nodding. He definitely likes it, though. Keeps it in his nest in the corner that's the least likely to get wet.

Killer actively shows you how much he loves it, keeping it with him almost always. He likes to pull it out and show you it with a happy grin. It's not necessarily in a very good condition, but it's definitely well-loved.

Nightmare gives you a forehead smooch as thanks. He loves it, and he'll often start staring at it silently with a happy expression on his face. It's common for him to snuggle up with it or sit it in his fluff.

Error absolutely adores it and will make you one in return. 'Cause then at night it's kind of like cuddling each other from afar and he really likes that thought. You'll see him happily grinning whenever he plays around with his plush.

Hehe, plushies. Gotta love 'em

Haven’t watched this in awhile but I hope I do this some justice!

How do the bad sanses (+ Dream) deal with an S/o just like Yor Forger?

Dust:

* You two are literally the quiet duo. You would think that’s a bad thing right? Nah. Introverts just have their own way of communicating. So he actually understands you best. Which much to your relief helps you a lot.

* Now seeing you in battle is a whole ‘nother story. He didn’t think you had it in you. Even under the hoodie you can see his eyes go wide as you easily take down a group of strong men easily- you just earned this man’s instant affection-

* But if there’s one thing he’s more terrified of, it’s your cooking. He doesn’t panic but he’s pretty creative on getting rid of the evidence. Thank god he can teleport this away. No offense to you…he just can’t do it. But at least he’s discreet so he doesn’t hurt your feelings.

* To him you are a beautiful strong and independent woman…and he’ll protect you even in the shadows.

Killer:

* He thought you were the cutest damn thing ever. Teasing you with sweet words and gentle gestures to flirt and see your face turn red. Stars he can never get over that sight.

* But man seeing you in action just makes him fall in more love. Fighting side by side as people drop down to the floor as you dance together with your blades? Can he really think of anything more romantic than this?

* Your cooking is one thing he’s a little….scared of. He still eats it. He loves you that much! But man his nonexistent stomach hurts so much- worth it-🥲

* He still loves you though. His perfect thorn princess…he’ll be sure to dance again with you

Horror:

* Ironically both of you are pretty similar: both of you are absolutely precious but a little terrifying if necessary- Horror is like a big ol teddy bear who likes to tail you around to make sure you don’t hurt yourself and you make sure he’s ok too!

* But man both of you are RELENTLESS in battles. Downright chilling to the bone (pun intended-) with your cold glares and shocking strength. The switch up even makes the others nervous-

* But nothing more terrifying then Horror actually eating your cooking without any hesitation and even asking for seconds- thanks to him, you strive to do better in your cooking!

* He can’t help but have a soft spot for you. Just please do be careful. He worries a lot….

Error:

* Don’t let this tsundere act bullshit you- he finds you annoying but speaks up for you instantly? That man will glare anyone down if they try to take advantage of you-

* And despite being a little surprised at how capable you are in battle, he does still watch over you and assists you anyway he can. What? He knows you’re still a klutz. He’s not wanting to have to swoop in and save you because YOU aren’t paying attention- (he was being a worrywart-)

* He doesn’t really eat anything other than his chocolate bars but you swear someone has been tampering with your cooking….oh well. It does seem to taste better now!

* He might be a little jackass but that’s only because that’s what he wants you to see. He’s no softie dammit-!

Nightmare:

* He hired you for your services as your reputation exceeded you. But he was…not expecting someone so…well soft. He thought it was a facade but nope- purely that is your true character. Which was odd to him….could someone this innocent really do anything useful?

* Oh man but you shut him up with your actions. Your speed, your elegant skills, your raw power, he was mesmerized by it all. Could you really be the same gullible quiet girl….? Well you’ve earned his respect.

* With cooking, he actually helps you. At first you spoon feed him a taste and instead of panicking at the taste, he gives you an honest opinion, some advice, and even a cook book for you to follow. He does linger longer than he should have….

* He can’t help the soft spot that’s grown so fond of you. He’s hesitant but he can’t ignore how nice it feels to be with you….

Dream:

* He heard rumors of your deeds and wanted to put a stop to you. But when he first saw you…well he didn’t expect you to be so reserved. And kind. And sweet….he actually heard your story and you gained his empathy as he understood how you would feel the need to work hard for your sibling’s sake.

* He doesn’t agree with your work but he doesn’t stop you. Because he knows how important this is for you. But expect him to constantly make sure you’re ok and ready to heal you if necessary.

* As for cooking, he usually ends up cooking with you. Mostly because he smelled your cooking and was a little…concerned. But he decided to make this kinda like a fun dating activity while he teaches you! And oh how fun it was. You both couldn’t stop giggling.

* He really cherishes you and despite living different lives, you both make it work….

cw.: Dust x Reader, gn!reader, almost non verbal Dust, fluff, Dust lacks communication skills, reader is trying their best to understand him, he actually cares about reader?!

note: He was the first skeleton I wrote about, so I wanted to go back to write a little about him again :D

Dust had always been unusually quiet — almost eerily so. Unlike his counterparts, Killer and Nightmare, he preferred to remain in the background, barely joining in on dinners or group training sessions.

That was fine; you never judged him for it (well, maybe a little at first, to be honest). However, it wasn’t just his isolation and silence that troubled you; it was the lack of communication.

You knew he wasn’t much of a talker — it was possible to count on one hand the times you’d heard his voice — but his complete stillness meant you couldn’t read any body language from him. And if that wasn’t enough, there was also the hood.

That damn hood. If only you could see his face, maybe you’d understand Dust better. Perhaps those bicolored eyes would be more expressive than his lack of movement, or maybe even a smirk, a furrowed brow, or a look of disdain would be more revealing than this complete absence of expression.

Inevitably, your hands went to your face, massaging your temples with some unnecessary force. All these questions and uncertainties were making your headache worse — and Killer’s incessant chatter during breakfast didn’t help at all.

For a moment, you close your eyes and let your mind drift, trying to imagine Dust's possible expressions. Does he maintain eye contact, or does he look away constantly? Does he have any habits like biting his tongue or lips, as you do?

Despite your efforts, nothing comes to mind. It’s already difficult enough to picture Dust doing anything other than sitting still on the couch, watching TV, or standing silently in a corner observing the others. Imagining a range of expressions on his face feels even more daunting — almost impossible.

As you sink further into the couch, feeling a slight ache in your back from the uncomfortable position, a weary sigh escapes your lips.

Just as you’re about to get frustrated with your lack of creativity, a poke on your cheek snaps you back to reality.

“Not now, Killer, you know I’ve got a splitting headache—” you start to say, but your words trail off when you open your eyes and see it isn’t Killer beside you, but the skeleton that’s been occupying your thoughts recently.

Still a bit taken aback, you almost miss the mug he’s offering, gently nudging it toward you as a signal to take it.

“Uh, thanks?” You carefully take hold of the mug, quickly grasping the handle when you realize how hot it is.

You soon catch a faint aroma wafting from the mug. Without hesitation, you inspect the liquid inside: judging by the color and smell, it’s definitely tea, though you can’t tell if it’s magical or herbal.

“It’s mint.” In an instant, your gaze locks onto Dust, who is still standing beside you.

This is one of the few times he’s directly addressed you (maybe the third? Certainly the first time he’s spoken so calmly), and you can’t help but be slightly taken aback.

Dust was offering you tea. Tea. Something usually associated with soothing physical pain and fatigue. Has this Dust actually gone so far as to prepare, serve, and offer tea to you? Did he know about your headache? Wait a minute—

Was he trying to ease your headache?

“Drink it slowly; it’s hot.” And just as quickly as he had appeared, he turned and began to walk away, his steps slow and shuffling. You couldn’t help but wince at the sound of his slippers scraping against the floor.

“Um…” You mutter, your gaze returning to the mug and watching the steam rise gently from it.

Your lips quiver slightly; even though it was a simple gesture, it had deeply touched your heart.

Maybe Dust wasn’t as expressionless and distant as you had believed.

Best ways to give them affection, and their favorite way of receiving it? (You can do whoever you wish, I only ask that Nightmare and Killer are included :] )

What are the best ways to show them affection

Characters: Nightmare, Killer, Dream, Geno

💘

Dreamtale (Nightmare) He is probably the least affectionate guy here, and in the whole world, but he does have his weak spots when he’s feeling a bit less defensive… Nightmare likes little things like you making him his favorite drink, tidying his bookshelves, watering his clearly dying plants he likes to keep outside. Notice how everything he likes doesn’t require his presence? He likes it the best when it’s subtle. You don’t have to tell him what you did, he’ll notice eventually. Something New (Killer) Killer likes affection when it can boost his ego. For example, Killer prefers when you ask what he’d like to do and then participate in whatever activity he feels like doing, it shows a certain kind of selflessness. Another example would be just making sure he’s taking care of himself, because we all know that isn’t really happening. He likes the attention you give to him and his well being. Most of the time, he acts like he doesn’t care or shrugs it off, but don’t be fooled. It’s just the only way for him to grip on his last hope that he didn’t completely fall for you. His feelings are shaking him up quite a bit. Dreamtale (Dream) Dream isn’t asking for things often, he’s more used to giving attention to others than people doing so towards him. But since he’s with you, everything has changed. You made him come out of his shell, you made him feel better about being “selfish” and being himself. That’s when he started showing you that his favorite thing to do with you was cuddle. Simple, right? Well, for him, it was a big deal. And when you guys started to make it a regular thing, he felt like he was in heaven. Just a hug from you, his face buried in your neck, is enough to charge his battery up. Aftertale (Geno) Geno misses affection, the warm feeling he used to have when he was in company of his family and friends back then. It got taken away from him, and he suffered enough. When he met and eventually started dating you, it’s like all those feelings came back, like he could feel that same joy again. He loves receiving compliments, any type of praise towards him makes the little part of his soul left warm up. He’s easily embarrassed, but he is like that. He loves you, and even more if you can easily word up your affection. --- I hope this suits what you asked for :))

[kaygee-doodles]

I have a really bad issue when it comes to pacing around. Like, I do it a lot. In normal situations, but mainly in the dead of night. Usually, I do it when I am trying to think. However, I am a little concerned it may keep some of the boys awake.

My pacing gets worse when I am stressed. I was wondering if that would wake them up if I am constantly walking up and down the hallway at 3am or something, lol.

How light of a sleeper are the boys? (Sorry if you already answered this question)

Killer doesn't sleep much, so when he 'sleeps', it more like passing out. Nightmare and Error sleep like normal people. Dust and Horror are pretty light sleepers in general, but when true exhaustion sets in, they are O.U.T.

That said, your SOUL is most likely to wake them up if they aren't in the room/adjacent room where you're walking around. You will be found.

More headcanons!🕳🏃‍♀️🎉

KEEP IN MIND: Again, this is what I think of Cross. These are not canon.

A little birdie told me that someone wanted more of these, and I have nothing to do soooo yeah, here’s some sustenance for you someone.

• Out of all the people in the gang, Cross tolerates likes Error the most. He’s quiet(when he’s not destroying), stays out of other people’s business unlike a certain black-teared skeleton, and overall usually keeps to himself.

• Either you knew this, or you didn’t. You probably did, but Killer and Cross have an ongoing rivalry with each other, though Killer generally attacks first.

• XChara can freely change between a ghost and a human, it can be super helpful in sticky situations.

• Man has despised Dream ever since he tried to talk to Cross. He doesn’t like the idea of others having pity for him, so any time Cross sees the positivity guardian, he teleports out of wherever he is in an instant. Doesn’t matter what’s happening, even if it’s an important meeting. He’d rather die than see him again. Can you tell I hate the Cream ship?

• Adding onto the last one, Nightmare has come to accept the fact that Cross will disappear if he sees Dream. He used to get angry when it happened, but understands his feelings as he wants to do the same. Unfortunately, he can’t, he needs to create negativity.

• Cross had a horrible first time trying yoga. No context.

• The Bad Sans’ may seem tough on the outside, but once the barrier is broken, you better start runnin’ cause the soft spots are comin’!

• Cross would not know the difference between a real fruit and a display one/plastic one. Also no context.

• Both XChara and Cross have trust issues because of the events in their world, so the first time you try to give either a hug they would think(sadly) that you were trying to stab them in the back. Literally. Well, unless you gave them a hug from behind/a side hug first. They’d just be confused then.

• I’m tired. Yes, that’s the last headcanon.

Shh...

"Damn. Well, I won't say no to that."
