Happy pride Mo :D! A silly question I thought of but do the Addisons have canon sexuality’s in your mind? Like Clicks, Survey, Sponsor and Banner? (All we know is that Spamton is canonically pan because of the sweepstakes lol) if not, that’s fine too!

aaaaaa happy pride to you too!!! :D one of the best months of the year!!

also i love this question, even if i haven't put too much thought in it lol. truthfully i'd like for readers to interpret them however they like, and i'd love to hear interpretations! gender is so vast in the dark world (with characters like seam using no pronouns and swatch confirmed using they/he also in the sweepstakes) and i love it

the adds prioritize their business and sales above relationships in general, but then again i'd feel like they think they're fun

the big acid theory post

(i am sorry for how long this is)

couple weeks ago someone on discord asked if i could dm them my gripes about acid theory, since they hadn't seen any criticisms of it. i was very surprised to hear that so of course i did what any normal deltarune fan would do and wrote an essay (aka complained for several paragraphs). posting for reference sake so i have all my thoughts in one place and never make a post about this topic again

----------

basically my criticisms for acid theory are on all tiers/interpretations of it as an life-changing event where he ends up disfigured. i don't think it makes much sense to happen for multiple reasons

for it to happen from a narrative perspective i don't really buy it. spamton's downfall is already tragic in that he lost his friends, his fame and fortune, and got evicted. in regards to the mansion, the eviction itself is the tragedy, in particular that it's implied that it wasn't only him that got evicted that day. a swatchling says that the mansion used to be for high-class citizens. the rooms that were once for these citizens are now for lightners, so it wasn't just that he had no money, he was gonna get kicked out anyway.

i mention this cause a common interp of acid theory is that the mansion staff threw him in as punishment, and i think there's little evidence for that given the circumstances. a while ago i went on this whole spiel about how mischaracterizing queen and/or swatch to try and support the theory makes it weaker to me but that's additional stuff

and about the acid as a threat, it's hard to take it seriously when the majority of mentions of it are for gags or game design-related. for example, the gold berdly statue being dropped into the acid slowly dips in because if it just sank instantly, you could very easily miss it. the swatchling being stranded on the island is a goof with anticipating a battle the moment you set the bridge out for them.

for spamton falling into the acid as an explanation for whatever caused him to be a physical puppet (this is going off of taking the addisons' word that he was an addison too), it doesn't really line up. it doesn't make a lot of sense from a lore standpoint; there's no evidence to suggest that the addisons look like puppets underneath. i mean it's an interesting hc, but to assume it's canon that that's why spamton looks like a puppet now is kinda just filling in blanks.

that one q&a answer where spamton talks about there being some kind of "spamton method" he used every day and became "big" to me implies that it was some kind of slow transformation into a puppet. it's not much to go off of, but it's a lot more compelling than taking a tumble in acid. there's more mystery there and might even explain why spamton showed up to the mansion less over time

i think at this point it's clear that at some point he did get pushed in by someone, as stated in the spa attire from the sweepstakes and one of his valentine's cards, but to me it seems like it was an example of him being mistreated by the other rich residents in the mansion. before he talks about getting pushed in a pool, he mentions that he's gotten swirlies at the mansion, and to me it seems like he's still really bothered by his treatment there which is why he mopes about it.

queen mentioning that the acid can shrink people is also played for jokes, even susie in the ch3 video saying that they'll die if they drink the acid is played for jokes (also i think it would probably hurt them cause they're lightners and not cyber darkners)

anyway, if acid theory ends up being directly confirmed without any cryptic wording and all that i would still dislike it. i just don't think it fits with spamton or ch2's themes and it's randomly dark in a way that's not appealing to me. i like psychological horror more and the puppetfication thing already fits that. i know it's definitely appealing to others and i don't think people are bad for liking it per se, but it's not my kinda thing at all nor do i think it's canon, so i personally want nothing to do with it

Looker.JAFF Bio/ My Addison HC’s

Looker.JAFF is an Addison that finds things! These things they find range from lost toys, gadgets and even people. She has a knack for finding things, as she is a literal search engine. Her bird, .JAFF, helps with finding things and relaying information. He also mimics Looker with how she moves and talks, too!

When Spamton went missing, the Addisons went to her to look for him, and to keep him somewhere where now one can find him. An easy task for such an Addison. She had found Spamton, and made him safe, as promised.

Then the Queen asked her personally to find him for her. She lied and just said that he isn't anywhere, not even in the Trash Zone. The reason she lied, is becasue Looker is someone that believes that things should be with their rightful owner.

Queen does not own Spamton, he belongs with his friends, the Addisons.

And while he was in hiding in Looker.JAFF's apartment, they developed a close friendship, which in turn turns into a relationship.

Extra tidbits!:

- Has a good friendship with Swatch (and therefore, the Swatchlings), as she finds things for them when they don't have time to do so for themselves

- Her real world counterpart is a search engine on the Library's computers in Hometown, and .JAFF's is a toolbar add-on.

- .JAFF and Looker are inseparable technologically speaking with her and his code. If one where to detach themselves from the other, a downward spiral similar to Spamton's would occur

Addison HC’s

My Addisons have feathers! AFAB’s have much more chest feathers and longer tails than AMAB’s. This is for better insulation and nesting. Anything can hatch from the eggs, but an example of something that can hatch (and most common) are small clones of themselves, which die off either quickly or for a short period of time. Many use this as an attack (like Spammy’s Minitons), or just use the eggs themselves as bombs. These clones are not sentient, and are pretty much leftover code that can be erased without damage to the original user/layer.

AFAB’s have more feathers, for nesting and insulation, while AMAB’s have less feathers and a much shorter tail. AFAB’s can cut their tails down to look more masculine. You can tell an Addisons health by seeing if they are well preened and their cheeks glow.

Also I HC that Addisons to have a puppet/mannequin build. Some have more puppet-like features, like Spammy’s ball jointed fingers; While others have more toy-like features, like Looker’s plush hands.

They are made up of plastic-like material, except for the tummy! The tummy is plush! :D

Have you got any specific hcs about queen and spamton?

I have a few as someone who is obsessed with the story of the cyber world before we get there in-game.

Most mansion guests are invited by Queen after their success is seen or she becomes interested in them. Spamton was unique in that he actually pitched himself and bigshot autos to her

She was of course intrigued by this overzealous barely 5-foot ad she never ever heard of and was like "LMAO Let's See What You Got."

Queen quickly grew fond of how bumbling but determined Spamton was, kinda like a Cosmo and Wanda-esque relationship (both dummies but in different departments)

Spamton wanted to prove he could sell to anyone even the Queen herself and was shocked she actually let him in. Thought she was gonna be more strict only to see her put on wheelies and fall face first into a plate of spaghetti code.

Immediately knew there was no way to fuck this up and kinda got a crush.

Spamton and Queen weren't a thing in the traditional sense, more so buddies that were odd and didn't question each other's oddness so they got along really well

Like if Spamton asked if a shopping cart could make it across the battery acid pool with them in it Queen wouldn't think twice before ordering a cart and having the Swatchlings set a ramp

Of course, there was a rumor on what they did on private meeting nights or if the gifts they exchanged were because of profits and honor the Queen or y'know...

Drinking buddies, Spamton has a surprising tolerance for his short stature and the Queen loves any excuse to pour a big glass of battery acid.

Spamton let her vent to him. It was rare someone backed up her feelings of not liking her position and Spam of course could understand and console her

Liked to take her on rides in his Cungadero and Queen liked how average it felt like she related to her citizens more. It was a normal night on the town with someone who knew it and truly lived as a cyber citizen. She liked getting stuck in traffic with him or him almost hitting another car. She felt vulnerable and not completely implacable but not unsecured. He liked that he was finally meeting someone's expectations.

I feel like the Queen was aware of him being off as an ad but she enjoys that part of him. Like it makes her feel like she's succeeding as a Queen when even the off-citizens can prosper

Was not aware of the phone and just thought Spamton had a finicky client thought she should've asked more questions when his downfall came

Honestly, he was more like her blorbo than anything else

Like dude could get away with a lot but he never pushed his luck

She was his girl boss slay queen u_u,

If she asked he would make a car model that's whole purpose was just to blow up despite that being awful for profits

When she had to kick him out, she offered a temporary apartment or condition to let him stay if he wanted to be something more mundane. For reasons, he wouldn't explain he declined

She lets Swatch sell the bowties cause she can't seem to justify completely erasing him from the mansion.

She also kept a pipis but you'll be hard-pressed to find where.

Spam doesn't rip the poster by his dumpster completely off cause he considers it the only official picture they had taken together

To be honest I ship and don't ship them. Like they weren't in love but they were two objectively weird people who think alike but have completely different backstories on to why. They could be open and be themselves around each other even if there were things they couldn't share with each other. It was more like those two weirdly intimate friends who everyone thought were a thing only for you to ask and they both fake vomit about it. They still joke about the idea.

[frostbite-the-bat]

I cant think of anything specific about DP so I’m just gonna ask you to go off on it anyway you want

Thanks for asking!!! Well, DPAU, Aka Datapack AU, is my Deltarune Chapter 2 specific AU I have created. It's my big passion project, and even I can admit it is a little too overambitious.

It expands the world with worldbuilding, new characters, new darkner species, new rules, character-specific headcanons, species headcanons, even new made-up companies and how Dark Worlds work in the first place! DPAU in general is just that, my own Deltarune CH2 "mega-world" that can host not only my own ocs and ideas, but also my friends! I hope to one day inspire people to create their owns stories and OCs based on the things I ave made. (Following my HCs, species I have made, ETC.)

I also got help from my friends, since their OCs are in this AU, and I do ask them for ideas and such - however it is still my AU and basically 99% of it is done by me. of course, things that are DPAU specific and not just Deltarune basics. Or well, how it was made, what does Datapack even mean, and some detail on "Swatchling masks" only. It's crucial info to understand this AU - if i talk about DPAU further, this is all information you need to understand everything else I may say about the world. By basics I mean prepare to scroll through a lot of shit, that still only scratches the surface of this, because I have ADHD and no control of my life. May make you ask "is this even Deltarune anymore"! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED :3

Anyway, DPAU started as a few headcanons I have made for the Swatchlings, inspired by my friend friend's, gatorbeast's, Addison headcanons! I loved the Swatchlings and wanted to expand on them a little bit, just for fun! I like making things up for fictional species sometimes!

And well.. Knowing me I just add details! And I add details! And I add details! AND I ADD-

YOU GET THE GIST! I just added more fun stuff and expansions to them, and the world around them... Eventually it became an whole AU!

You see, the name "Datapack", comes from what is essentially the driving point of the main character's story, and the thing that started it all!

A "datapack" is another name that's used for Swatchling masks. They're not actually even masks at all! That's why there's an in-universe alternative name for it. Some even use the term "Swatchling horn". I use mask and horn interchangeably.

The white "masks" Swatchlings seem to have? Well, they aren't masks at all! They cannot be taken off, and it is, in fact, their face!

I will not go too in depth on Swatchling reproduction, (it's not even sexual, so don't worry if you want to ask further about it! It's just fairly detailed, and has tons of unneccesary info.) but I'll go over the basics!

When a parent/parents (can be more than 2) have offsprings, they will grow an horn on their snout shortly after having said offspring! It will grow as the egg grows, and falls off some days after the chick hatches!

The mask contains data and information of the parent - the way Swatchlings work is... Very complicated for no reason! I just enjoyed doing it so I had explanations for as many questions nobody asked as I could think of, you see.

But, the gist is - they're not just the body guards or artists... They're everything! The Swatchlings are naturally suited for basically anything. They're made to be adaptable and fill in certain roles individually!

Swatchlings will already hatch with some traits from their parent, but the mask is made to fill it in! Besides, if there's multiple parents, they can pick whichever one they think is the best. Or swap with other Swatchlings who kept their horns, if they have them.

The mask has information, but even energy for the Swatchling! They do not grow like us humans, they grow very rapidly. They are seen as real adults and mature around the same ages as we do, but they grow very, very quickly. The mask basically boosts their growth.

It also provides them with instinctual knowledge about certain topics... Let's say you are a Swatchling who's parent is a chef - and you receive their mask. You will grow to be close to cooking, possibly! You will have a very easy time picking it up as a hobby/job/interest! You can still learn to do other things, however, and spread this to your offspring as well! Generations of Swatchling like this may have passed down natural "knowledge" (or instinct?) rather towards many topics!!! It will help them later down in life when finding out their true passions, and purpose in the world!

DPAU is a bit less about Darkners existing to serve Lightners, but being a "lesser" world "underneath" the Light world after all. That's... Another very complicated topic - and honestly my least favorite of them all to work for this AU.

But basically! Swatchlings! Adaptable! Gets cool useful traits from parents through masks! Even physical perks - is your parent strong? You probably will be as well! The world is a canvas of endless possibilities! This is inspired by art programs being made to well... be able to do anything with!

NOW, there's two types of Swatchlings, and the second type has another sub-type.

MASKLESS Swatchlings, are those who never received a mask. After a few days of a Swatchling being hatched - a mask cannot be attached anymore. It is in a very limited time-span. Maskless Swatchlings lack the usual masked, white colored face, and tend to be of a shorter build as they don't have the outside energy and resourced that the masks give to help them grow quickly. They can basically do anything they want, but it may be slightly more difficult to learn. I wonder if there's an allegory for anything here.

MASKED Swatchlings, are those who received a mask. They are divided into artificial masks, and parent masks.

You see... Not all parents grow a mask due to a number of issues, or it is damaged, or some just have their egg split - causing them to have siblings. And well, they just don't have masks for all of them!

Maskless Swatchlings are typically accepted and seen as equal - they have their own great qualities! However, to satisfy the need for Swatchling parents needing masks for their off-spring... A business was made.

A brand new extremely advanced technology - the ability to create functioning, artificial masks! There's only one way to make them, and it is completely owned and basically copyrighted by the Swatchling-owned company, Adobi. They're known for their industry standard art programs, art supplies, and the company owner's, Brodi Adobi's, hatred of lemons. However, they have a Swatchling specific side just for creating artificial Swatchling masks! And since DPAU Dark World is HUGE and composed of possibly thousands of cities just like this one we see - and the fact they own this market - it's a big CHA-CHING for them. Dollar signs for pupils included.

There's two types of artificial masks. Regular, and specific datapack. The Swatchlings who have a specific datapack mask, are also called Specific Datapack Swatchlings.

Regular ones are sorta blank (haha), giving the Swatchling just the basics. Letting them grow bigger and faster, and general adaptability to learn! There may be some that are more leaning towards certain things - those may be a bit more expensive due their specificness.

Then there's the specific datapack ones. These are given to Swatchlings who are expected to be future workers - those who's parents have no plans for them, really. They want to ensure a good, safe position later in life so they get a specific datapack mask. It makes a Swatchling less adaptable, but extremely good in their specific field. They will also often make Swatchlings look the same/extremely similar. (The Swatchlings have ways of telling who's who, even in a room of naked to the eye identical looking/dressed Swatchlings.)

These are usually made for businesses who want future workers for hire. Of course, they can decide to NOT work for them later on - but if they do it's basically a free job right away, no worries no biggies. You already have everything you need naturally. For example, all of Queen's butler Swatchlings are this. That's why they look identical for the most part! Except for Swatch - they have a parent mask.

Specific datapack Swatchlings also work best in teams, and take orders well. It's sometimes both a blessing, and a curse, and sometimes the ethics of this are discussed - but the most common argument is that, well, they don't have to do what they were designed for thanks for their mask - they can just do something else if they want to. It may be harder for them to start and learn, but it is a possibility.

And well, LEGALLY, only Swatchling owned stores can order these masks en masse to sell them to other Swatchlings only, to avoid... Accidents. You see, only Swatchlings have the code in them that activates after they are a few days old that disables masks from working on them. Because it could cause harm if used on an adult or an growing being!

... Other species don't have that! And, you see, in the early days of the Cyber World forming, there was less species! They were all vague beings, who then split to fit certain roles. There was a few of these at first, and from them came everything else. Am I really putting vague evolution into Deltarune? Yeah. its the undiagnosed tism. sorry.

But basically! Swatchlings are more closely related to some species. Those can handle being masked fairly well, and may even have special forms and use it no problem, almost. But someeeee wellll, may cause some trouble.

And in the wrong hands... Someone may use this for evil.

There's people who try to modify the code of these, and make masks grant them abilities they could not have naturally. Help them achieve stronger forms. OH YEAH. I FORGOT TO MENTION. Masks also exist to let a Swatchling have stronger magic, and pass down learned/natural Darkner magic from parent to offspring.

Modifying/hacking masks is... Dangerous. This is the code for a living being, it's not like some code for a game or a program. This comes from a living being, to a living being. They may be made of code, but code to them is like... Our atoms. Is that a good way to explain it?

If someone were to use a corrupted mask, it would ruin their life together, since it can cause a wide array of problems.

That's why it's illegal for other kinds of Darkners to buy them (unless closely regulated, takes a few papers to fill, rather expensive, has to be a specific species as well), to not spread any mishaps. Well, it doesn't stop some people!

That's what caused the AU to begin... What if an Addison got one of these masks? Like, a VERY, VERY badly corrupted mask?

That's how Blank B. Addison was born in my own cursed little catboy entity hands. And with me developing him further... The world aroung him grew. And it kept stacking up and... Now I have a whole AU!

I uh. Talked a little too much about this, but I believe this is the basic info you need to understand anything being talked about further. Hell, I have NOT even gotten into the main story of DPAU, following Blank himself. I have not even MENTIONED Deep Dark Cyber City, which is my own new area and idea for Deltarune. Basically the dark web where all the nasty shit happens! Even I sometimes wonder how any of this related to core Deltarune (i mean it is supposed to be an addition to background elements, and its like.. oh this could happen but you wouldnt see it because it happens outside the players view and at a different time), but I also remember a lot of stuff I did in this AU is to be like... An somewhat canon adjusted addition? There's a lot of weird loops and shit here just to let some canon things happen, lmao. ANYWAYS. I WILL STOP MYSELF HERE BEFORE I GO ON ANOTHER TANGENT. THERE'S MORE ASKS FOR ME TO ANSWER. FEEL FREE TO ASK MORE, BECAUSE I PROBABLY CAUSED SEVERE CONFUSION AND I DEFINITELY MISSED A LOT OF POINTS ON ACCIDENT. I have also not read my old notes in a while, this is *all* from the top of my head.

[cozylittleartblog]

i have a lot of thoughts about swatch and the swatchlings for some reason. mostly that they are very cool. but also what if they were all named after pantone swatches. what if they all had a default color and a name that matches (but queen and tasque like them all one color. sometimes The Color Of The Day changes, though). they can sleep standing up because they’re birds. swatch is doodling like every free second they have. they drink paint. the color cafe doubles as a host club. queen comes in to hog swatch and make the other patrons jealous. swatch is a workaholic and permanently has bags under their eyes. their faces are low-poly but in the Aesthetic way

i like the funny art program birds

[hereissomething]

something awakened in me when i learned that spam lived in the mansion

[snailsand]

1 am doodle

[gidget-claws]

I keep thinking about out Swatch (surprise surprise) and also love making the calm cool professional character act less than professional- so

Random HCs for Swatchton when drinking not all age appropriate battery acid

It's all cringe but I am free

Swatch rarely drinks but usually does when Swatchlings or Tasque Manager offer them

They like mixed drinks and all the fancy stuff

Spamton usually never drinks since he's so small too much would be real bad on him- but when he does he's in it for a good time not a long time to put it simply

Spamton when tipsy is low key emotional

People usually never bring up what he mentioned when he's sober again just to avoid any uncomfortable conversations

He also switches between talking nonstop to being dead quiet

Swatch gets very cuddly and clingy-

They usually end up falling sleep on whoever they're out with since they never drink alone

They talk a lot about a bunch of completely unrelated stuff just

"Oh I saw a maus today but none of the Swatchlings noticed so I was able to get it outside before they saw- did you know that the lightners soul can change colors based off different attacks- one time I was painting and some Addison stole my paint brush and I told them to give it back but they wanted me to buy it back- I wonder if it'll rain tonight it was super cloudy when we came in-"

Then promptly pass out asleep

Swatch also just showers Spamton in random compliments and just praises him for mundane things

"Oh my gosh you're so cute and tint with your little suit look at you so handsome and cute wow look at you go-"

Which of course makes Spamton extremely flustered

They also almost always end up holding Spamton like a teddy bear while they fall asleep

Waking up the next day both parties are extremely quiet-

Swatch always gets a splitting headache and ends up grumpy

Spamton is always super nauseous and just sleeps half the day

That's why they usually never drink since both if then never feel okay after

[smells-like-mettaton]

For the ask game: berdly!

First impression

Wow This Guy Is Annoying

Impression now

Wow This Guy Is Annoying (Hilarious)

For real I wasn't expecting Berdly to get any characterization whatsoever. So while I'm not super attached to him still one way or the other, I think he's an interesting character. Also his fight theme is banger, particularly the "berdly's theme but it drops harder" edit on youtube. maximum adhd music

Favorite moment

Probably noelle strangling him ngl slkdfjsd he has lots of funny moments though. fun character :)

Idea for a story

I don't think about Berdly enough to have fic ideas for him sorry. I'm even trying to come up with something right now and there's just. [white noise]

Unpopular opinion

I could not care less whether people stan Berdly or hate him. I don't think hating him is an attack on children or anything lol I think people are just allowed to not like annoying characters. It's really funny to see Berdly discourse sometimes. I guess with every Berdly take (positive or negative) I'm usually just like It's Not That Deep

Favorite relationship

Berdly and Noelle of course :) weird friends who do legitimately care about each other even if they don't always know how to show it

Favorite headcanon

He gets adopted by Swatch and the Swatchlings while staying with Queen. (If it's possible after everyone moves to Ralsei's Dark World) he plays on the paint program once he learns that it wasn't all a dream, trying to feel close to them again.

[philophobic-paracosm]

A

enjoy a video of Wren getting startled

they’re annoyed bc now they gotta spend a while making themselves presentable again bc Swatch scolds them (gently lol they’re not mean or anything they just run a somewhat tight ship) if they’re all ruffled without good reason

waiting for this post to get absolutely no attention bc its an oc lmao

(lots of extra content in tags)

[impulsive-fantasylander]

I don't wanna be a part of the deltarune fandom, but like- Swatch? Big she/they vibes.

[yanderes-galore]

Hi! Do you have any headcannons for Swatch?

Sure I can!

There isn't much known about them and the Swatchlings so it may be short but I'll see what I can do.

Yandere! Swatch HCs

Pairing: Romantic

Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Yandere behavior, Manipulation, Mentioned kidnapping, Mentioned murder, Implied stalking.

- Swatch is a Yandere who would most likely wish to pamper you and is very dedicated.

- You could work at Queen's castle or be a simple guest.

- In both situations Swatch and the Swatchlings feel they are responsible for you here.

- I am going to use an idea an Anon gave me before I got into Deltarune Chapter 2.

- If Swatch is obsessed with you, the Swatchlings probably would be too.

- Now you have a harem.

- Swatch first doesn't acknowledge the obsession they have.

- They are far too busy with their job to acknowledge such feelings they have towards you.

- But they more they work with/serve you, they find themselves wishing to return more.

- You're not annoying in the slightest to them and frequent Color Cafe often.

- It doesn't matter if you are on break or just wanting to look around, they can't help but fixate.

- The Swatchlings tend to hover around you, too.

- Frequently you're asked if you need anything and if you're comfortable.

- It can get suffocating sometimes when the Swatchlings are so... clingy.

- You tell Swatch this and they promise they'll make sure they calm down.

- ...Why don't you stay in the cafe a little while with Swatch in the meantime?

- Leaving the castle becomes less and less possible the more you stay.

- Even if you managed it, you still feel eyes on you.

- Multiple eyes....

- Manipulation is something Swatch would consider.

- But murder for them is way too dirty.

- The Swatchlings might, but not Swatch.

- Kidnapping is also considered, but eventually they decide against it.

- But if it ever comes to it....

- There is a basement available.

[movedtodykedvonte]

(about that one hc or au where spamton was that one "gone missing celebrity" guy)

What are darkners's theories about what happened to him? What do addisons think?

The Addisons think there was foul play involved. I mean Spamton randomly started talking to some mysterious figure on the phone, did a 180 in personality and suddenly disappeared after the phone calls stopped. They 100% believe whoever on the line had something to do with his disappearance and (death for the ads that believe that). They never mention it to authorities or if asked, they barely speak about him cause they are kinda scared. The phone call was random, like a lure to Spam and they fear if they speak about it it’ll slowly pull them in one by one.

Due to the closest people to Spamton never talking about it or letting any details out many cyber citizens believe it had something to do with the ads for a while. Their disdain was known and Spam hated being associated with them so they believed it could’ve been a smear campaign that ran Spam outta town and business. Though I feel like this died down in favor of outlandish conspiracies, like Swatchlings letting it slip about his religious fixation or ideas about a mystery benefactor that wanted their payment when Spam couldn’t deliver. The mansion keeps quiet about having thrown him out to avoid blame and also guilt but most of the staff believe he died on the street… despite the numerous break ins from a figure all too recognizable. I play around with the idea the acid theory is believed in cyber world by citizens, that he fell in and the mansion is covering up he somehow died from it.

On a more au specific idea, I believe big shot autos was a dealership and manufacturing building and citizens believe he could’ve died in some sort of freak accident. Some believe he haunts the building or is still there phantom of the opera style. Spamton hears some of these and thinks they’re ridiculous especially cause he’s still there but he’s more preoccupied about not being found and getting in the basement to point out how unrealistic the theories are.

[frostbite-the-bat]

ourghh i feel like reblogging some old datapack au stuff if thats okay so some people can see it

like - my original idea and designs and additions that still hold up. for example i wouldnt rb my first swatchling HC's post, as it is outdated and existed before dpau was officially a thing

[penbwl]

I just want to draw swatchon as an old married couple pls- they get back together and it takes years but spamton slowly makes a recovery and when swatch eventually retires (they still live above the cafe dw) the swatchlings take over and swatch finds them self needing something to do so they just knit loads of blankets and sweaters and drowns their tiny husband in it all. Spamton ofc spends his time writing cheesy love songs and taste testing swatch’s recipes. (Also I hc swatch as being a painter cus ,,, I mean their name is literally swatch,, so spam probably poses for them too). Spamton has bad joints when he’s older so swatch likes to give him massages and carry him around (not that they wouldn’t do that before). They’ll sit at the cafe together, Spamton showing anyone who happens to walk past that he can play the spoons and basically keeps them hostage while he sings silly songs and Swatch being that person everyone goes to when they’re feeling down and needing some advice— they’re castle towns obligatory uncles 🤷‍♂️
