Hi I'm bored u wanna talk about fishdings to me?

GASP!

Okay so basically, for those who don't know, Fishdings is an au where Gaster is Undyne's dad and Sans doesn't exist. Papyrus is there, but only in a small fight in Waterfall that replaces Shyren's because SHYREN AND LEMON BREAD (although she's called Baked Bread here) REPLACE SANS AND PAPYRUS

So Fishdings Angler had a sister named Shelley who reproduced via Mitosis as you do and decided he too should make a child. Shelley got killed by the Justice child tho. Rip. She left her daughters in the care of their honourary auntcle, Riverperson.

To make his wonderful child, Fishdings combined RAW COSMIC MATTER, A LUMP OF HIMSELF (he can split his tail into legs and can grab off lumps of himself mid split, so thats how) AND GOLDFISH CRACKERS. But OH NO! He accidentally knocked a beaker of JUSTICE DETERMINATION into the mix! (He was studying it)

The child sprung out of the vat a fully formed five year old and immediately beat the shit out of him. He was very impressed at his NEW DAUGHTER'S STRENGTH and immediately took her to the king for training! While she was jabbing at Asgore with a stick, he came up with a wonderful name for her: UNDYNE ANGLER!

Once the newborn fish child got too tired to keep attempting a royal assassination, Fishdings took her to visit her extended family in Waterfall. Riverperson immediately adored their new honourary niece (obviously).

Shyra, six, didn't like Undyne that much at first because she's made of Justice Determination: the same justice determination used by some child to kill her mother. She eventually warmed up to her though, and the two grew up very close.

Shyren, one, loved Undyne from the start and the two would frequently run around the house together shrieking at the tops of their lungs.

Due to Fishdings being busy with SCIENCE and Riverperson with ferrying everyone around on a plank of wood (and also trying to built an actual boat), the Blooks would often babysit the fish children.

Maddy, thirteen is HEAD BABYSITTER! She's also the only one who does any work around here. It's thanks to her that the house hasn't blown up yet. Blanksta, eleven, is no help. They spend all their time in the ruins or on the farm. They are the ruins dummy.

Napsta, ten, is TOO STRESSED to help much. They like playing with Shyren though. Musical baby. They make sick beats together despite being little kids. Hapsta, eight, is even less help than Blanksta in the way that HE CAUSES PROBLEMS ON PURPOSE.

When Undyne is not hanging out with her cousins and the Blooks, she spends time in the lab with her father. The other scientists don't mind her running around the place as long as she's careful.

She also continues training with Asgore! Even though she has webbed hands, she's still pretty good with a spear. She can now beat the ass of anyone in the underground. Except maybe Asgore himself.

She lives on the top floor with her dad for awhile, but when she gets a bit older they move into Shyra and Shyren's place, and buy them a house in Snowdin. By then Shyra's twelve or thirteen so her and Shyren are okay alone most of the day. Besides, there are loads of other kids in Snowdin so they're happy enough. The Blooks still come visit sometimes.

That's all the early Fishdings lore, I think. Nothing else major happens til Undyne's fifteen anyway.

Crystal Drake (Snowdrake's mom), Muttler, and Shyra

Their graves in Deltarune for context

[starisenby]

Gerson is a boss monster and here's why

As we know boss monsters age when their offspring does and if said offspring is dead they are stuck at the age they were when their offspring died

And we know Gerson is dead in Deltarune

And the surrounding graves are of characters who we know were dead in Undertale as well (which is interesting that more of the amalgamates aren't there which is either due to lack of space or it means they are alive in the Deltarune universe)

(Images from a post by @seased )

And we know that the amalgamates are dead

When monsters die they dust.

And we know Father Alvin is Gersons son

So why is Gerson dead in Deltarune where he has a son but not in Undertale where he doesn't? Because he's a boss monster that's why

[otherswap]

Happy end of year! Thanks everyone for the warm reception to OTHERSWAP, here's hoping we'll have even more for you in 2024. In the meantime I'll share some miscellaneous pictures for you all to look at!

Sketches for the snack bar in Clearwater that replaces Grillby's. I thought it would be funny if each town was required by law to have some kind of Christmas tree decoration. I'm really attached to the mascot idea... maybe there's a monster who just looks like that. Talk about a dream job!

The building ended up changing a bit in the sprite but it keeps the sliding doors and walk-up counter I wanted so it's fine. The sprite is a mishmash of roofing from Hometown buildings, the flowerpots from Grillby's, and original work.

Noteblook and Shyra, Shyren's sister who replaces her in this AU. Obviously we never see her in the original game so I had to come up with a design that still says they're related but still distinct from each other. She's a little ditzy but still just as cute! Little fish monsters are fun to draw.

Muffet eating a spear (spider pear), Shyra again, and the Holiday kids.

Speaking of the Holiday kids, a little drawing of them in that one Christmas dress! You know the one.

This was one of the very first things I drew back in 2021 when we were just starting work on OTHERSWAP. In the end we decided to not change Frisk at all, which thank god because the one singular stripe makes me uneasy.

[bluemoth698]

Here's some doodles

Also i think i forgot to mention this on my original post but shyra's glasses are a reference to her amalgamate form

[fishdings]

Please explain everything about this AU I know you'll like it

:D!!!

Okay, Fishdings is basically an AU where Gaster is Undyne's dad and his name is Fishdings Angler!

He's still the royal scientist though, he works for Asgore and specialises in multiversal studies, coming up with ways to bust out of the underground, the CORE, SOULS and whatever mechanical bullshit the adhd mindset decides he should build today.

The canon Gaster followers are, of course, his coworkers, as are the Goners.

He had a sister named Shelley (a geologist) who reproduced via asexual reproduction twice. She had two daughters who she named Shyra and Shyren. Sadly, not long after she created Shyren, she was killed by the JUSTICE DETERMINATION child, Caper.

Oh also here's a list of the fallen human children and their soul powers:

Chara: Determination (i think)

Idyll: Patience

Antic: Bravery

Spice: Integrity

Llark: Perseverance

Caper: Justice

Revel: Kindness

Frisk: Nothing (get rekt, despite everything u continue to just be urself)

Despite mourning his sister, Fishdings was also jealous that she had children and decided he should attempt to carry out something similar! He set up in the lab basement a là powerpuff girls, and combined the powers of HIMSELF*, RAW COSMOS AND GOLDFISH CRACKERS! He was content with this mixture, but OH NO! he accidentally knocked in a flask of LIQUID JUSTICE DETERMINATION, a lá powerpuff girls! (like I said, he was studying souls)

*(he can use magic to shift between having legs and having a fish tail, and mid shift it's goopy. He used a lump of this goop)

From this mixture a five year old child sprung fully formed and immediately attempted to fight her creator. And won. Fishdings was very very proud of his five minute old daughter and immediately took her to his boss so she coukd get lessons in combat. While she attempted (and failed) to beat the living shit out of Asgore, he came up with the perfect name: UNDYNE.

Once Undyne got too tired to keep attempting to fight, Fishdings decided to take her to see her relatives. They took the ferry (obviously) and Undyne got to meet her honourary uncleaunt Riverperson.

Riverperson has legal custody of Shyra and Shyren (they and Shelley were inseparable when she was alive), but as they are busy ferrying people around half the day (and trying to build a bigger boat) they mostly leave the girls in the care of the Blooks.

Undyne meets her cousins and their babysitters: Maddy, Blankstablook**, Napstablook and Hapstablook. Maddy, the eldest at 13, is the only one who actually babysits (the others are no help) but all of the ghosts insist they babysit too.

** Blankstablook is the ruins dummy

Shyren, one, is excited to meet her new cousin and they are fast friends. They frequently run around the house together screaming. Shyren is a very musical baby and Undyne just likes yelling.

Shyra, six, is... less fond of Undyne. As her mother was killed by the justice child and Undyne is made of justice determination, she resents her new cousin a little. She eventually warms up to her though, and they grow up very close.

Shyra and Shyren live in the house that we know in the game as Undyne's, in Waterfall. The Blooks live literally right next door, making babysitting convenient. Undyne spends half her childhood here when Fishdings is busy with science stuff.

Undyne and her dad live in the top floor of the lab. It's really just a bed crammed into a corner with various photographs pinned to the walls around it, but there's a tv in the basement. So. Undyne is free to run around the lab as long as she doesn't touch anything dangerous. The other scientists become quite fond of her over time too.

A few years later, Fishdings decides that Undyne is getting too old to live in the lab with him, so they buy a house in Snowdin for Shyra, Shyrup*** and Riverperson and move into their old place. The Shy sisters are okay with this! Snowdin has way more kids their age, and there's a schoolhouse so they aren't alone at home all day. The Blooks are happy to make the trip to visit sometimes too.

*** Shyren discovered they're non binary and so is Shyrup now

When Undyne's 15 her dad falls into the CORE. How? Not sure yet. Anyway, Undyne is so filled with JUSTICE DETERMINATION her hair glows gold and she vows to find him. It takes a few years, but they eventually figure out he's trapped in the void, build a portal and send a now 17 year old Undyne in to get him out.

The only problem is Fishdings is now liquid. He lives in a vat for a while, until he's eventually solid enough (slime consistency) to move around on his own. He immediately commissions a giant fish tank on the top floor of the lab, fitted with the void portal in the corner and takes to doing multiversal/void research in there.

The other scientists are relocated to a bigger lab in New Home so Fishdings can leave his slime and half built portals all over the damn place but they still visit sometimes! Fishdings visits the other lab sometimes too but mostly stays in a fishbowl on wheels so to not drip on the carpet.

Another year or so later, Fishdings gets word of a young scientist named Alphys who built a fabulous robot, that now has his own tv show. He arranges a meeting with her and hires her on the spot, giving her free run of the basement for whatever science related shit she pleases. He allowed her to use the basement because he wasn't using it, definitely not because he saw Undyne making heart eyes at the lizard monster...

Not long after that, Shyra "falls down". Fishdings and Undyne are devastated, and Alphys vows to find a way to revive Shyra and other monsters who have suffered the same fate.

The amalgam incidents carry out as they did in canon, except this time Fishdings finds out about it. It's difficult to hide four (five? six??) goop monsters in the basement when you have another goop monster two floors up who likes to pop down sometimes (nosy).

He encourages her to come forward about it, so the Amalgamates are returned to their overjoyed (albeit slightly confused) families. Undyne and Shyrup are, of course, overjoyed to have Shyra back! Except now she's also Moldbygg and Aaron, and goes by Baked Bread.

Two humans fall into the underground when Undyne turns 24. Their names are Revel and Frisk. Will they kill everyone or will they be pacifists? Depends which fanfic Killer and I will eventually write you read...

...

So yah. Other than Gaster being a fish and present and Undyne's dad and the amalgams being free and sans not existing and Shyrup and Baked Bread being very very relevant, not much else changes.

There are aesthetic changes ofc: Fishdings puts fishy motifs into everything he creates, and being head scientist means the rest of the Underground take to using fishy motifs in their everyday lives.

Fishdings made the puzzles in the ruins (he used to go down there to visit Toriel before she decided to close it off altogether), so they also look fishy. His puzzle skillz inspired Shyrup to make a few music themed ones of her own in Snowdin. Fishdings made a lot of the puzzles in Waterfall and Hotland too so again, FISHY MOTIFS.

Mettaton is Mermatriton bc he and Alphys were too inspired by the overabundance of fishiness.

Um that's all I can think of to say for now, oh expect in the fanfictions Killer and I will eventually write, the SOUL controls Revel on pacifist and Frisk on geno. So yeah!

Sorry this took a few days for me to answer lol, had to spent a while typing.

[the-unrelated-theorist]

I never thought of it before, but- you know how some people connect lemons with electricity? Because of, like, middle school science experiments where you use lemons to make a makeshift battery or something (don't @ me, it's been 20 years since middle school, I don't remember what we were actually supposed to be making with the lemon, I just remember it was about electricity).

So, one part of Lemon Bread is Shyren's sister, right (Shyra, according to DR)? And Shyren is the one where we get the flavor text about being open to electrical attacks. So, we have a connection between lemons and electricity.

This is one of those weird connections that was probably unintended, because Toby said somewhere that "Lemon Bread" is actually a reference to "Melon Bread," from Gunstar Heroes. I don't remember where that quote is from, it was either the art book or the localization book- I don't have either of those books, I just watched some videos about them.

It's still interesting, nonetheless. If it was unintended, then I kinda hope Toby notices the connection and does something with it. At least a line about it, maybe some obscure "Check" reference about lemons conducting electricity.

I've been thinking about Deltarune's graveyard a bit

For one this is very very clearly like.. Darkner setup. Whatever the religion practiced in the town is, it involves burying people with items that symbolize them in order to "Connect them to the divine". It's a bit funny, but I think this is basically the only time Lightner culture seems to even remotely recognize Darkners so far. A connecting thread between the two cultures however is the "Angel", but what is certainly odd is that while in the town's religion the Angel seems to be painted as a benevolent figure, Darkner legend very blatantly calls the three heroes to "banish the Angel's Heaven" - which implies it isn't a good thing, and gives this Angel entity an undertone of maliciousness I would say. Sort of parallels Undertale's meaning of the Delta Rune, where some monsters believed the Angel would wipe the Underground out, and others believed they would shatter the barrier, except in this case the ones who believe the Angel to be malevolent are also literal tools to be used by people who hold the exact opposite belief. I've seen people theorize that one of the Lightners is the Angel but my current theory is that The Roaring is the fountains opening some sort of gateway which will create a direct connection with this Angel entity. Perhaps it's a titan - hell, perhaps it's the central titan shown in the Roaring cutscene, - or perhaps the titans are it's servants. But I'm going off on a bit of a tangent. What's interesting to me is that the only time Darkners have been utilized in Lightner culture so far is in a ritual that quite literally involves burying them into the ground, into complete darkness where they're destined to eventually end up forgotten. Doesn't seem like Muttler's or Shyra's graves have been getting any bouquets over the course of the 2 chapters - hell, so far I don't think we have seen any monsters that could be Shyra's friends or relatives. Point being, how do Darkners with Shadow Crystals seem to come about? Perhaps 2 isn't exactly a pattern, but something both Jevil and Spamton share as a recurring theme in their plots is that they have both been forgotten and cast away into a place no one will find unless they know who and what they're looking for. An eye should definitely be kept on these graves, because I have a suspicion those objects aren't going to stay buried for long.

Back with more ghost cousin (featuring Shyren) shenanigans.. but this time they're kids!

Shyren is a bug lover and she shares her love for bugs with Napstablook (because Mettaton only likes butterflies and Mew Mew only cares about using bugs to scare Mettaton).

Reference images below (from left to right: Mad Mew Mew, Mettaton, Napstablook, Shyren).

Bonus sketches:

the trans urge to steal from your cis cousin's wardrobe but your cousin is also trans:

plus bonus shyren content, featuring her older sister shyra!

Shyra notes:

Shyren's primary caretaker, depicted as around 24 above (~16 years older than Shyren)

Would sing to Shyren to calm her down and inspired her love for alt fashion

Mirroring undertale canon she'd be deceased current day but im still figuring out those details

For more info on my human versions view the previous post here.

I'm reworking Alphys and Undyne slightly but will reupload them

[eldragon-x]

yeah anyway my alphys undertale character analysis will include a paragraph where i just rant about how shyra fucks up the timeline so bad

[respawningjupiter]

Oh my god.

She died. She's fucking dead. My favorite undertale character (next to alphys) is dead.

[kittyking445]

Uh making the undertale characters in a picrew!!! If there's anyone specific I should add send an ask or put it in the reblogs!!

Alphys

Undyne

Toriel

Lemonbread/Shyra

Shyren

Knight Knight

QC(??)

Maddy

Susie

Muffet

Here's my take on Underswap Shyren and her sister, Shyra, swapped with Napstablook and the dummy in the ruins.

Shyren is very timid, but if you're nice to her she'll start to come out of her metaphorical shell. Shyra is much more confident than her sister. Asgore hired shyra to teach you how to handle an encounter, so she gives you a tutorial battle.

As usual, special thanks to ChrisTheRaccTamer for helping with the sprites, and feel free to ask me any questions you may have about the au!
