[rueflewaway]

Silly

Here's Blackberry from the chapter "Buddy, I've Got An Axe To Grind". Skeleton Squatters is one of my favorite fics on AO3 lol

[ratherpekewliar]

Hey Undertale fandom does anybody know what happened to TyrantTortoise?????

[greenheartart]

Am I so excited to finally be sharing this story that I made a cover image for it? You bet I am!

More info under the cut :D

A Lovely House of Bones is a story very much inspired by @tyranttortoise and her wonderful "Skeletons Squatters and the Landlady" because goddamn am I a sucker for tropes and found family and slow burns, and she inspired me to write my own take on the concept.

Chapter 1 will go up on Saturday July 29th, and I plan on releasing new chapters every other week going forward, so there will be something of a consistent update schedule (fingers crossed!)

I've been rolling this story around in my head for a long time, so it's so exciting to finally be putting it out into the world. I really hope you guys enjoy it! ♥

Fanfic to read: I read a lot so I’m so sorry; and some are discontinued or haven’t been updated but their so good! Also some authors have even more stories to read or have fanfics inspired by that one so check the authors out to see if they have more or one shots!

DO I RELATE

I’VE BEEN WAITING AGES TO POST MY THINGS BOUT MY FAVORITE FANFICS (and games, BonelyHeartsClub), and I look pretty chill about it, just posting slowly, but I’m making myself cry every time I see there’s no updates since 1 up to 4 years ago!!

The sans simp urge to re read some of these reader x reverse harem that havent been updated in centuries but theyre still core memories for me for some reason

iykyk which ones I mean

[arn359]

Hi, do you have any Underswap Papyrus fanfic recommendations?

I’m sorry to say that i mostly read fanfic with multiple AUs😭

But! The Reverse harem fics that i really like how they write US!Papyrus is

The House Next Door by BattleMaiden13 (of course!)

On Top of the Bone Pile by Lyrjok

Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady by Tyrant_Tortoise

I do read US!pap only fics too. But it’s only One-Shot fics (we’re keeping it sfw here right)

Flowers and Flirting by Meltedhalo

Sweet Kisses by Meltedhalo

If yall find any fic with my Orange as a kind, gentle, emotional, and good friend. Throw it at me please.😔🤲

I think I haven’t read any new fic for a while now…

[undertale-fic-librarby]

Do you have any swapfell/fellswap sans x reader stories or Underfell papyrus x reader?

I want to see the tsuderes flustered.

Something fluffy pls or if not possible slightly angsty is ok.

(Smut is ok).

Thanks!

Howdy, thanks for asking! Here are some fics that might fit what you're looking for!

Penitent Island by Vesperchan (Mature, Incomplete)

You're not sure why you were dumped on an island in the middle of the ocean, but that's what happened. Now it's survival time and with so many unknowns and dangers on an island designed to push people to their limits, you figure it's better to go at it with some companions. Rus and his brother seem like safe bets, but you're not sure if you really understand their monster culture well enough after it's developed to suite their island lifestyle. Well, you have plenty of time to learn. You just need to survive now. Magic, Mates, & Monsters; what's not to love?

Short King by absurdmagewrites (Explicit, Complete)

It's said that every little girl from the tender age of ten when they first receive their soulmate tattoo can't wait to meet their soulmate, the one perfect person destined for them. The only problem is, you weren't every little girl, and you didn't receive just any ordinary soulmate tattoo. From the age of ten you'd had to stare at the words "GET OUT OF MY WAY ALREADY YOU FREAKING NOBODY!", and know that's exactly what your soulmate would think the first time they ever laid eyes on you. That you were just some nobody, and from that moment on you no longer had the desire to meet this soulmate who apparently thought so little of you upon first glance. But then you do meet him, and he changes everything.

Dirty Laundry by popatochisp (Teen And Up, Complete)

You're new around here and just trying to get by. You really should've known better. *A SWAPFELL FIC*

The Ruse by pannsy (Mature, Incomplete)

It’s ironic how one’s plan of goodness, a grand gesture of kindness; can become skewed by an outside view, tainted and seen as something vicious and menacing. So much so, the lines become blurred from right and wrong for a person who had only wanted to do only good. The public unable to view them as anything other than a corrupt villain. A person who wanted to save the world, not to burn it. Well…Watching the world burn a little before putting the flames out, wouldn’t damn it any more than it already was… (SWAPFELL! AU. SANS X FM! READER.)

Laws of Love by GenniiD (Explicit, Complete)

Same universe, New monster reader Protag! Black (FellSwap) meets his SOULmate. Fun, song-filled shenanigans ensue with the meddling of a dramatic Robot with a SOUL. Ideas initially inspired by “Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady” by Tyrant_Tortoise, “In Your Bones, Under Your Skin” by RTH, and "Winter in your Bones" by Cryptid_jack

[recklesslycaffeinated]

What are some Sans (any Au) X readers fanfics you recommend besides your own of course? Have any favorite?

Literally anything by @llamagoddessofficial, obviously, but particularly Aggre(g/v)ation, Cave Bear and Tilikum.

Also First Impressions by ImLostOnTheInternet is in its early days but has a lot of potential. And Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady by Tyrant_Tortoise which I think is abandoned but it's still a good read.

In the NSFW category, Between Flesh & Bone by Darkina and A Puzzle Just For Me by neroli9.

[teasnarker92]

Do you have any fic recommendations?

Btw I love your story so far and the semi-regular updates are a blessing considering I am already obsessed with the storyline

(ps I love the way you do the swapfell brothers, and everyone else too of course, but those two don't always get the love I feel they deserve and the way you write them mwah chefs kiss.)

Going for the hardest questions first! Well, with my story To Grandmother's House We Go, I said it was inspired by The House Next Door by Battlemaiden13 on Ao3. I highly recommend it if you haven't read it yet.

The House Next Door - BattleMaiden13 - Multifandom [Archive of Our Own]

And if you have read that one, then I recommend Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady by Tyrant_Tortoise - also on Ao3. Unfortunately, with this one, it hasn't updated since 2021. But it's still a really fun read all the same.

Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady - Tyrant_Tortoise - Undertale (Video Game) [Archive of Our Own]

I know from reading a lot of fics; I love regular updates and try to keep it on a semi-scheduled basis.

And thank you so much! Honestly, the swapfell bros are the scariest for me to write since I don't know their lore as well as I know classic's, the swaps', or fells'. It's been fun to get them developed.

[samyy009922]

Yk, if I write a fic about the main 10 skelles (vanilla, swap, fell, horror, and swap fell) would anyone be interested :0 maybe even more of them

Kinda like Skeleton squatters and the landlady and bitty hunt (amazing fics go read them, I’ll add them ag the bottom in order)

Hrmmmm they’re filling my brain rn

[kamari333]

If you mean the trope of "multiple skeletons from different AUs are dragged together", thats the 6 Skeletons trope, which began in 2016 with a fic called "Six Skeletons, One Maid" (2016) by RacoonSinQueen.

The 6 Skeleton trope is an xReader trope that brings 3 (and later more) pairs of skeleton brothers into a single AU where a Reader can have relationships with them.

There are implications in 6S1M that what happened to bring this situation about was the malfunction of "A Machine", but very little of that plot thread is expounded upon. You'll find more explicit mention of "a machine" in particular coming from derivative works.

I haven't the bandwidth at the moment to crossreference exact timestamps and posting dates, but my hazy memory would point to two primary suspects in terms of The Machine subcategory of this trope:

- Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady (2017) by Tyrant_Tortoise

- Six Skeletons in your Closet (2017) by MsMK

Both of which predate my own contribution Resonance (which takes The Machine trope out of the 6 Skeletons trope entirely as of 2017).

I can't be entirely sure these are the sole contributions (the fandom is vast and concurrent evolution is a thing) but this should be a ballpart start for anyone wanting to do the research.

This fandom has such a problem with crediting and it can be very frustrating when I'm looking for the origins of something and the information just doesn't exist

[manambart]

Suddenly, you feel something warm engulf your frame. A blue sleeve of a jacket hangs from your side.

“here kid. don’t want you giving me the cold shoulder.”

You turn around to face Sans, who smiles and winks at you. Grateful, you pull your arms through the sleeves of his jacket. It smells like pine and ketchup. “Thanks. I’m sorry about... everything in there.” You can’t meet his gaze.

“hey, don’t sweat it. i get what’s going on.” He sits down on the porch steps, and you blow out a sigh and plop down beside him.

                                                                                            by @tyranttortoise

Or basically I somewhat revisited the sneak peak I posted in April last year and decided wth, I will tweak it a bit and post it anyway. I’m on SSLL nostalgia high rn, and I have many ideas but can’t settle on any to work with. I think I’d like to illustrate some more of the fanfic scenes, but I don’t know which ones. I just love the warm atmosphere of this fic so much that I can’t decide <:3c 

Background taken from some photo I found on Google last year and stretched, warped, edited a tad.

World's worst wingmen

I fuckin love the stretch and red friendship in Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady...

[bumblebey12]

I’m all caught up. Lemme tell ya…

✨Butterflies in my TUMMY. ✨

[twitchydoodle]

And this is where my simping journey began-

I just wanted to draw out a few parts of it and just have fun lol  I’ll probs draw different versions of the Landlady if I decide to do it again XD

Anywho-- if you have some free time I suggest you read the fanfic for a bit. The fanfic is Skeleton Squatters and the Landlady The author is @tyranttortoise

//This has been in my drafts for a couple of months now- oof-
