#sans bossfight

[entryn17]

your honor i plead oppsie daisies

[tvlandofficiall]

I'm personally a believer that Seam's orange button eye is an eyepatch but if they rlly can see through the buttons that would be so cool..... I wonder what that particular staff has seen throughout the years

YEAH i was an eyepatch truther for a while and sort of still am but the fact that there's a second button on their staff leads me to believe that the button may be their eye instead. i've seen a few designs floating around of where seam's other button might be and the fact that there's a dubiously-canon answer now is so cool to me. they must've put it on their staff themselves if this all follows – i wonder to what end?

Thinking about that fnaf post Zeal made and then remembering that Undertale came out in late 2015.

Sebastian fucking missed Undertale man he doesn’t even know who Sans Undertale is vro…

[dirt-str1der]

Everything is harder in yk2 .. the only thing thats easier to do is disappoint my daughter

[the-mighty-mittens]

Holy shit it's Sans Undertale

insane crackpot deltarune theory time: The secret bosses are/will be based off of fanon depictions of sans.

Think about it:

Jevil: A jester (funny guy) with that really hard secret bossfight (How most people probably remember sans)

Spamton: That guy with the glowing eyes who keeps talking in puns references (again how a lot of people probably remember sans)

Yes I know this is complete bullshit and none of this “evidence” is really related at all (this is basically as much evidence as the “sans is ness” theory) but still, theres something here

[morally-grey-girlbosses]

Propaganda under the cut.

Lady Eboshi:

She relentlenssy fights the wolves (including San who is wolfgender) and destroys nature, to maintain the activity of her mine. But she does not do it for greed. She does it to protect sex workers and lepers. To protect marginalized people. She may be an "antagonist" (if they were an antagonist in the movie) but she's not a bad person, just a good person that destroys nature (like so many IRL humans).

Listen. She was good to her village people, especially the women. Took care of leprosy patients when no one else would. Very empowering girlboss. I hate her very much. She wanted to destroy the mountain and the forests for resources and caused great harm to the nature spirits, animals, and animal gods that lived there. Fuck her. Morally gray but I'd fight her to the death. With regret

Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower:

Tortured and experimented on a bunch of innocent people, worked for the Healing Church that was turning everybody into werewolves via blood, may have been involved in killing an eldritch sea god so bad that the god created hell specifically to send her and the other ppl involved to it. When she’s losing her bossfight she stabs herself and sets her blood on fire. A very tall and handsome woman who is very sexy while she kills you many, many times

us! chara my sassy lost child

my own interpretation of underswap:

us! chara:

chara replaces frisk so they're now the 8th fallen child. they retain some key characteristics of their og/ut version though (dislikes humanity, has a soft spot for nicer monsters). i heavily see chara as a sassy, firecracker and trouble making child <3

personally, i think of ut! chara as an entity similar to flowey - they have no soul and can't really "feel" love and compassion. depending on what route you as the player takes, they go along with the ride. their beliefs and goals rely on how much exp/lv you've earned. i think of them as a pretty chill souless kid

us! sans:

im not a fan of infantilizing us! sans (honestly this applies to all "papyrus-types"). like chara, he retains some characteristics of his og version. he likes puns (and loves annoying his younger brother with them), a sciency type, and LOVES greasy food ("sans, for the last time, stop buying grillby's overpriced food"). most noticeable difference with his undertale counterpart is that he's a bit more active & more or less has his shit together a lot more than ut! sans.

you can actually die in his boss fight unlike og papyrus. he's aware of what "capturing humans" entail, & he's not really a fan of the whole killing children thing. but y'know, monsterkind just.. needs one more soul don't they? like og papyrus bossfight, you just need to tire him out before he goes "YOU KNOW WHAT, I CAN'T KILL A KID" & spares you.

(if you die thrice in his bossfight, he'll see your expression & just lets you go. he's unnerved & thinks chara's expression will haunt him for the rest of his life)

he can actually make edible food & is popular with snowdin's residents. he has the qualifications to join the royal guard, he just chooses not to. alphys approves of him and would gladly accept him into the team, but eh - he's content with being an unofficial member.

acquaintances with alphys. you could have considered them friends a.. long time ago, but the past is the past. the best big brother - cares deeply for papyrus and his severe lack of friends. pushes the human to hang out w/ him & papyrus (instead of a date).

us! papyrus:

following the trend of retaining some of the og's traits, papyrus can't cook very well. he's slightly above the category of being capable of burning water. he's talented when it comes to making and constructing puzzles - a great engineer tbh. papyrus still has the racecar bed & has dreams of driving one on the surface.

and for the record, he doesn't smoke - it's a lollipop. he's also anxious and socially awkward - guy's got ZERO friends (okay im exaggerating, he does have at least TWO). nevertheless, he's a loser and i love him; a certified babygirl.

similar to ut's events, paps makes a promise to a man behind the ruins' door to guide the human who passes through, and he intends to keep it. unlike ut! sans who tends to watch over the human from a distance (& occassionally intersects with their journey), papyrus is a bit more involved. he keeps chara company during some sections of snowdin/hotland & likes to keep check on them by calling on the cellphone.

although papyrus is lazier and more easy going than ut! papyrus, he's just as compassionate & kind. during his fight's first phase in genocide, he tries to force the human to give up and rethink their ways. his attacks generally consist of blue attacks - a defense; to push you back. he doesn't like the idea of killing someone (even if that someone happened to be the one who killed your brother and all your friends), but if the human does happen to die - it can't be helped.

if you spare him, you don't get dunked on dw. he'll let you off the fight but doesn't allow you to proceed any further. he'll keep blocking your way — the only way to get past him is to kill him. as a result, his bossfight is a lot easier than ut! sans, but still very difficult. when the second phase happens (you attack him when he spares you), he pulls all stops & tries to full on kill you fr.

on a lighter note, he's bffs with undyne. they construct wild and destructive experiments. BESTIES(tm) IN EVERY UNIVERSE <33

(that's all there is for now.. i have plans for the others but i'll post them in due time)

[krisispiss]

Okay now I GOTTA ask what Kris's undertale/deltarune bossfight would be!!!

literally the sans fight but with paws instead of bones she is SMACKING YOU for 1 HP very fast

[txttletale]

could you elaborate on ways undertale drops the ball? would be interested in hearing your thoughts & critiques

i think the main one is that the sans bossfight (and the no-mercy undyne bossfight) is fun and has sick music. and this undercuts what i think is the strongest narrative and thematic aspect of that route, that it sucks and it's not fun. you have to spend ages just walking around waiting for all the random encounters, all the flavor text and humour that's usually delivered through characters or frisk's internal narration is absent.

it's kind of just a dreadful slog, and the fact that it's totally optional and you have to go out of your way to get onto the route and it fucking sucks is kind of crucial to the whole message being delivered, which is fundamentally 'don't you have something better to be doing than this?', or, more broadly, 'is 'i want to see everything that can happen' a fun or satisfying way to engage with games?''.

so when it includes something that is cool and fun and well-designed and unique to that path i think that does in fact weaken the thesis statement. if you give a good and obvious answer to 'why are you doing this?' then you kind of self-sabotage the thematic exploration you try and do in asking the question. so tldr i think the sans fight shouldn't be in undertale! which is maybe a controversial opinion but it's the #1 thing i would change.

[ealoseum]

Replayed this old Obby I found through place roulette and when I reached the end they had removed the bossfight trigger and replaced it with Sans and Spongebob holding hands

[theteaklily]

DELTARUNE THEORY

Frisk is the roaring knight, they can already create multiple timelines(as sans mentiones in the bossfight) through their will (determination), so it is logical that they got powerful enough and started exploring different choices they could make by creating multiple universes.

If this theory exists already, i do not know of it, please tell me in comments

[shedeltaonmyrune]

Hey, I’m obsessed with your Canadian undertale. Big upps for Canada.

I’ve seen it said theorized before, and I lowkey think that moun’t ebbot is on our side of the Rockies!! Canadian sans isn’t that far fetched of a theory!!

Sans undertale would love bunny hugs and touques - you just know he’s seen letter kenny, too.

I didn’t know I needed hockyplayer papyrus in my life, but now that I’ve seen it I love it. I think paps would have one hell of a culture shock once he learns what puck bunnies are - HAHAHAHA

for some reason I could see him really getting down with curling too? Maybe it’s just because he’s super tall and gangly. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lmao thanks! Honestly yeah I think it would make sense for Ebott to be here too :)

Yes I was gonna give sans a toque in the og drawing, but he looked too similar to pap's silhouette so I changed it to the hat he has now. But just know that he owns a matching toque set with his brother! And yeah he's definitely seen every season of letterkenny

Yeah hockey player pap is probably my favourite part of this madness, it just fits so well. I can picture his bossfight in my mind so clearly. I think he already knows what puck bunnies are, since this au isn't so much "they surface in to canada" as it is "the underground IS like canada". Snowdin surely already has a few puck bunnies lol. Literally!

I was thinking of making Undyne a curler actually! Which, in turn, would mean she's teaching Papyrus to curl too I suppose? Either that or she's a hockey player too, I haven't decided yet lol. Lacrosse also!

Thanks for the ask about my silly sort of au!
