Font anon again! Thanks for indulging me. Yes it is the fic where SF!Papyrus is Palatino. It’s one of my favs. I agree with Serif as a last name because it’s funny.

I’m going mostly off vibes. You completely nailed what I was going for with UF! Papyrus (you are definitely the right person to brainstorm with and have great insight.) My original font search prioritized fonts people complained about, sticking to the theme of Comic Sans and Papyrus being “annoying fonts.” If you can think of any other ones I’m down to hear them.

Here is my list of names:

Courier

Helvetica

Trajan

Bradley Hand

Gentona, Avenir

Calibri

Verveine

Corsiva

Frutiger

Bodoni

Vivaldi

Zapfino

Rockwell

Amadeus

Clarendon

Arvo

Avenir

Casion

Cooper

Didot

Carrington

Anviers

Fontin

Fertigo

Harrington

*waves hand at you* nOOOOO WORRIESSS and thank you for the clarification ;D!! I'm always here for indulgence owu!! And thank you! I'm glad you like my take on things haha! (ANNOYING FONTS LETS GO!!!!)

This is a fantastic list :o!! I pulled up all the fonts in your list in another window for maximum ponderance lol.

I stuck my thoughts under the cut because as usual it got long (and for some of them I'm spitballing more than anything) but hopefully it's of some help ^^!

Swap!Papyrus: Hands down (haha), he suits Bradley Hand visually- the font is like Papyrus (font) but more loose and scribbled- it has more curves and thus has a more laidback kind of vibe, which is why I think it'd suit him... but also I'm losing my mind at the idea of calling him Bradley (derogatory) (/lh).

(I'm also biased though. I used to use this font for writing when I was younger LMAO. You know how people say to write with Comic Sans? I did that with Bradley Hand.)

Swap!Sans: I reckon he'd fit Cooper.

Round, bold, a little bit 'childish' when compared to other fonts, but infinitely more put together than Comic Sans. It also makes me think about comics like Archie or Garfield, which used similar rounded fonts for their titles! Cooper (font) feels so... cartoony to me, y'know? Also it makes me think of Sly Cooper just namewise lmaooooo

Underfell!Sans: Ok. OK. Listen I don't think this font suits him BUT!!! Fontin would be REALLY FUNNY just purely because I think he'd have the time of his life making jokes about "Fonting". Like: "ey! i'm fontin' here!" type of jokes which would get old so so so quickly. Do you see my vision.

If Carrington was less... curly-cursive I'd say it'd suit him purely for the potential visual association with like. the typeface you might see at a stereotypical tattoo parlour or something. IDK it makes me think about tattoos and motorcycles.

SAYING ALL THAT THOUGH: I think he could suit Rockwell! It makes me think of titles and bold headers, also cowboy westerns and Very Masculine and Cool products lol. Except... Rockwell is usually used with Uppercase, Title case or Sentence case. Purely lowercase Rockwell feels inherently cursed to me. (Like truly, what are you doing if you're using Rockwell in lowercase. That's committing a violence.)

Swapfell!Papyrus: Weirdly enough, I reckon I could see him with Corsiva or Fertigo? (Which... looks strikingly similar to Fontin. Huh!)

(Fertigo on the LEFT, Fontin on the RIGHT)

IMO, Fertigo feels more laidback due to the curling tips (which still come to sharp points). The way that the ends of "strokes" get flicked gives it a sort of lazier vibe.

BUT the font choice here also depends on your interpretation of SF!Pap!!

If you want to have a font that's underrated and everywhere?? GO Calibri. It's used as the default font for Microsoft, and is designed to be very easy to read. This is particularly befitting of the interpretations of SF!Pap where he's well versed in computers/electronics and/or doing spywork. His presence is not actively noticed, but he's always there! Alternatively, if you wanted to name him after a serif'd font, similar to Calibri, one of the fonts from your list, Caslon, has a somewhat ubiquitous presence, and also feels a little rougher/crunchier than stuff like Calibri or Fertigo.

Other notes:

I know you already decided on a name for him, but Trajan is also a really good alternative option for UF!Papyrus imo. Similar Roman-Commander vibes except even more explicit LMAO. Plus, it's a solely uppercase font, which is even more fitting.

Didot... if you swap the 'i' for a 'd' and vice versa, you get 'idiot' which is simply ripe for the teasing, but I don't think it fits any of the skeletons lol.

I would have suggested Arial as an option due to it's former prevalence, but honestly that name (+Verdana) have like… cemented themselves in my brain as 'fan-made skeleton' fonts ajbhjsmhjmdh (no shade whatsoever to anyone who uses them ofc, but MAN are they used a LOT.)

#i considered the fells having serifs and the non-fells having no serifs but mmm i think that puts a lot of restrictions on the options #additionally i feel like sf!gold bross fit script/cursive font names for some reason #zapfino and vivaldi for wine and coffee maybe...#velwy.txt #inbox #anon #i feel like i need a tag for these sortsa posts at this point lol #mindmortar #get it? because. headcano- *the mindmortar goes off and i m shot offscreen*

The Great Papyrus’s Twin Brother Palatino (2022)

---------------

Credit for Deltarune & Undertale goes to Toby Fox

------------------

this might be a weird theory, but I believe Papyrus might be a twin.

and if his twin brother who looks and sounds like him had a name,

it would be Palatino, which weirdly enough reminds me of “Valentino”

which makes me think of the song Valentino by Years & Years And MNEK.

the first time I heard that song was on a fan animation of Hazbin Hotel, which seeing as Valentino character was in the fan animation, it would fit him so well.

he gets you under his spell, and you wont realize that your under his spell until it’s too late....the same could be said if the song matched Ozzie from Helluva Boss...

anyway Palatino’s scarf, gloves, boots and even the spiked wrist bands on his writes, are all red....

and well apparently his jacket is red too, even if the color on it is suppose to be red, and the paint I use on the computer does say it’s red, but the color of the jacket seems more of a orange.

Palatino is suppose to have that “Bad Boy” look to him, and if he had a Underfell Counterpart, then they would have that “Good Boy” look instead.

the one who calls us when we are in the room with the flower seeds and bell, as well as the secret room where you can get to by using the flower seeds to go get what’s under the bench...

we can still think it was Papyrus, but what if it was his twin brother, and after the whole pretend date with Alphys (who only went on a date with the Player/Frisk out of pity.)

Papyrus will end up calling the Player, or so it would appear to be him.

but what if it is someone pretending to be him, like his possible twin brother.

if Lancer can secretly be a Quadruplet, then Papyrus could secretly be a twin.

also if there was a version of Palatino in Underswap, he would most likely not end up being Papyrus’s twin, and would not look like him.

but instead would be Underswap’s Precious Blueberry Muffin’s Twin instead.

like he would look just like Sans and still have the whole “Bad Boy” look and possibly have a different name and not be called Palatino.

this drawing has to do with a Fan Headcanon and Theory about Papyrus,

how he is secretly a twin and the one who is half the time hiding in the closet is his twin brother, but when his twin isn’t in the closet, then Papyrus himself would be in the said closet.....we know what that can mean, although now it wouldn’t just mean the whole romantic interest of someone who is either Bi, Pan, Queer, Lesbian, Vincian, Enbian or Other.

the closet can also be for gender identity as well as the whole new found religious belief....

the being in the closet can have different meanings.

I guess if others would want to draw Papyrus’s Twin Brother Palatino, they can, so long as they give the proper credit of course....

not sure if there would be many that would even want to draw him though.

but I think if Papyrus does have a twin brother, maybe he will have the same name that was originally going to be Papyrus’s name and have his original personality as well, which means that Papyrus’s twin brother would have very little or no redeeming qualities.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Retro-Papyrus would be the brother we are waiting for in Deltarune, well maybe....or he could look like that younger version of Papyrus that we see in the Memoryhead in the true lab that’s in Undertale.

I can’t be the only one who notice what appears to be a younger Papyrus that is part of the Memoryhead, and I think the Memoryhead might be a bad memory that belongs to Papyrus but was taken out of him to protect him from the trauma that caused the Bad Memory in the first place.

I guess those who didn’t notice before, and I sure didn’t before...

would have to look really close at the Memoryhead to find the head that looks like a younger version of Papyrus.

maybe that will be how he will look in Deltarune.

I also have a theory about Sans, besides my agreeing on the theory that he is technically Steven Universe, because his name is hidden in Steven Quartz Universe’s name.

the theory being that half the time in the game, it isn’t Sans we aren’t talking to, but someone who is disguising as him, the times when it is Sans is when he takes us to Grillby’s.

anyway if Papyrus does have a twin brother, he is likely a big secret and would probably have a different name from Palatino.

I’m still gonna see Lancer as being a Quadruplet, and the fact his Dad forgot that he is a Quadruplet as well as the whole King being too lazy to give his Quadruplet sons different names, so he named them all Lancer.

anyway this drawing has to do with the theory about Papyrus being a twin, but not everyone has to agree about that theory that there is someone who looks and sounds like Papyrus but with a different name and personality, but can put on a act to pretend to be Papyrus, but some actions they do could give it away.

not sure if I will draw this guy again, but who knows, maybe I will draw him again in the future.

but if some are interested in drawing him, that’s fine.

so long as there is form of credit.
