Her touch is instantly grounding, and Gaster exhales slightly in relief. She’s here, and he’s here. He’s not just watching this through the haze of void, not interacting without actually being here. This is real. He wants very much to hold that hand, but he resists that urge, and fidgets with the end of his scarf to keep his hands busy. Left behind. He didn’t even have to actually say it. She just… knew. She has a remarkable way of figuring out how he feels before he could even begin to articulate it. ❝THE LACK OF CLOSURE IN MY LIFE,❞ he mutters bitterly, ❝DIDN’T EXACTLY START WITH THE VOID. THERE’S SO MUCH I’LL NEVER REALLY KNOW ABOUT FROM THE WAR…❞ Then again, did he ever move on past the war? While he managed to recontextualize Alex’s status as a mage to his feelings (he DID know kind mages in the past too; Asgore’s friend and…), and has managed to keep anxiety at work over being surrounded by so many humans to a minimum … has he ever left that tense, frightened mindset it instilled in him? Did he ever stop grieving what was? ❝I DON’T THINK I’M VERY GOOD AT LETTING GO.❞ The hug is a surprise, but one that he returns gratefully and immediately. He tries not to show his disappointment as she quickly pulls back, remarking on how tired he must be. ❝I DON’T KNOW THAT I SLEPT MORE THAN AN HOUR BEFORE…❞ he trails off, ❝I’M NOT REALLY FEELING IT YET THOUGH…GONE MUCH LONGER WITHOUT ANY…❞ He’s not even trying to make excuses this time. He’s still reorienting himself with feeling like this is real, and he’s all too used to being sleep deprived. So whilst he objectively knows he’s in dire need of some rest, it’s not registering for the way he feels. More than rest, more than something to eat, Gaster just wants to hold onto Alex and not let her go until every trace of the way the void makes him feel is gone. He follows her inside, nervously fiddling with his scarf again. ❝I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE JUST WOKEN YOU UP AFTER ALL,❞ he says attempting some levity, but a slight tremble to his voice gives his remaining… whatever this feeling is away, ❝IT WAS A VOID NIGHTMARE; I HADN’T WANTED TO DISTURB YOU, SO I WENT ON A WALK INSTEAD…❞

The returned hug prompted a soft sigh, relief flooding her that she hadn't further upset her friend with the unexpected touch. Then again, with the way he seemed to cling back almost immediately, perhaps it had been more welcomed than she'd feared?

That thought in mind, she offered her hand to Gaster, giving him another concerned frown.

“You haven't talked a lot about the war,” She observed quietly. “Outside of the fact that you were in it, and the fact that you have trauma regarding human mages because of it. Well, and also what happened prior to the war actually breaking out.” Mistral's death, in other words, though she was trying to put it more delicately.

Shaking her head, she glanced side-long at Gaster even as she gently guided him up the porch steps and towards the house. “I always assumed it had to have been pretty traumatic for you, so I didn't want to pry. I'm… I'm sorry that you were forced to endure that kind of thing, though. You didn't deserve it, I'm sure. None of you who lived through it did.”

How could they have, given the Monsters' reputation as being made of love, hope, and compassion?

Sighing, Alex guided Gaster to the living room, instead of dragging him up the stairs like she normally would have. “I know you say you don't feel like sleeping, but you should at least let yourself rest for a bit. I don't want to see you wear yourself out again.“

Her expression softened at Gaster's joke, and on impulse she reached out for another hug. “In that case,” she said even through the embrace, “you officially have my permission to come in and wake me in the future, should you have another nightmare, void or otherwise,” She assured him, giving him a small squeeze. “I promise not to get upset with you if you do. I'd rather be woken up so I can help, than for you to have to suffer alone.”

Caught by the earnestness of her own words, Alex cleared her throat, ignoring the heat rising to her face as she pulled back again. “Is… there anything I can do to help right now, at least?” she asked, hoping to help Gaster get more settled so that getting food and rest hopefully didn't seem so daunting a task.

@scientistredacted

The scientist is still an enigma. Bizzare. It's been about two months since he just... appeared in the CORE. Dr. Alphys didn't give him a whole lot of details. Just that he had been rather unwell when she found him there. And that, at some point the in the past, there was an accident that had erased him from everyone's memories. That he was the Royal Scientist before Alphys. That he created the CORE.

It was astounding, to say the least. Asgore immediately wanted to help the poor man reassemble his life, but- aside from taking a severance payment for having been unceremoniously replaced as Royal Scientist- the skeleton wouldn't accept any help. He seemed to be trying to avoid them entirely.

The only reason he was here today was because Asgore found some of his things.

Which... raises it's own questions. Were they friends? Asgore knows he must have been the Skeleton's boss, but to have a pair of his glasses, and an old jacket...

That implies a closer relationship than employer-employee.

But he couldn't get much out of the Skeleton in terms of conversation. Just polite greetings and thank yous. And then he was leaving. And Asgore was letting him.

Behind him, he hears Frisk stop Dr. Gaster, and he winces.

|👑| ❝Wait, child, you don't know Hands yet,❞ he says starting to turn around. |🔥|

But then Dr. Gaster responds to them, and Asgore freezes, transported to the past for a moment.

Aster? That sounded just like his old teacher. Like his father's friends. Professor Aster was his babysitter growing up.

And he and his whole family died in the War. Aster fought defending the school to his last moment. Asgore saw him turn to dust. Aster's young daughter, Mistral, was the first war causality in Skystead.

...

Dr. Wing Din Gaster...

He speaks Wingdings, usually, and signs the words in the Monster sign language Hands. He must have Aster as a secondary font. Gaster, Aster.

Slowly,

So slowly,

Asgore turns around to face Frisk and Dr. Gaster, staring intently at the skeleton.

|👑| ❝... I knew a skeleton who's font was Aster, a long time ago.❞ |🔥|

Accidentally stepping through to other timelines is something the stout skeleton always has to be mindful of when using his shortcuts- One wrong step and you’re in an Underfell timeline, or even the Alpha Timeline- Something Switch would much rather avoid. But these new glitch powers from being deleted and remade are tricky. His shortcuts reach much, much further than he’s used to.

So stepping into another timeline was inevitable, he’d say, given the step he takes that leads him straight into a much taller skeleton. Normally, that’d just be a Paps, but... One look up tells him otherwise. “DAD???” Pause. Wait, no. His dad’s at home, helping the kid with that machine they’ve been working on. The terse grin on the comedian’s face says that is MOST certainly not what he intended to say. “Erm. Thaaaaaat is to say. Uh.” Shoulders slump, and he heaves out a sigh. 

[badmusejail]

@subject09 starter call.

...Interesting.

Gaster didn't reply immediately; singular eye focusing on the individual before him before flicking away, only to repeat.

Somehow, the multiverse always found something new to throw at him.

Not that it was surprising; exactly, given his understanding of SOULs, it was already known that monsters could absorb human souls and also merge with one another; a combination of the two situations didn't seem impossible, simply... improbable, given the scarcity of the two individual situations to begin with.

But, calling attention to that would be rude and he wasn't quite as uncouth as he knew some of his variants could be.

"Greetings."

Lately her magics had been rather... verbose, carrying her simplest wishes & whispers across the weave with violent edges.

❝ !! ❞

Her breath catches in her chest moments after the arcane word finishes reverberating. A blessed, reactionary response: the heaving sob & freshly flowing tears her body lets go as she turns away from the gruesome scene she'd carved into the soil.

Curious, wasn't it? How often chance encounters seemed to innocently devolve into charnel house, after charnel house, whenever she held the map.

The honest, instinctual urge within her to sing out as her voice churned once-promising souls into a viscous bubble of chunky, wet viscera? Not an easily explained away thing. Not while she was still coming down from the high of a first time.

❝ I need a moment, @moonsworn... I'm sorry, I just - ❞

Inhale. To four. Exhale. To four.

❝ - I didn't know I could... ❞

call of the void.

[frozenfischer]

A small frown tugged at Alex's mouth, and she hook her head. "Perhaps, but again, I would rather not make a habit of it," was all she could say, before she went to gather everything she'd left at the base of the tree.

She still really didn't feel like going to class, but she would somehow manage. Wouldn't be the first time she'd gone while exhausted. It was just usually caused by not sleeping well, rather than magical depletion.

River's complement had a wry smirk tug at one corner of her mouth into a lopsided smile. "Intelligent? Maybe. Stubborn more like, though. If I was truly that intelligent, I would have been done with my masters a couple years ago." She took a deep breath. "But in any case, I'm off for now. I'll talk to you later."

She paused, and added quietly, "And... thanks. For everything."

One of River's hands came up to make a sort of 'shh' motion before the shadows of their hood and they chuckled. "Shush, I like feeding people. It is no burden."

While Alex was worried about repayment, the thought of being paid for teaching magic had honestly never crossed their mind. She was in need of a teacher. They knew water magic. Seemed straightforward.

As she gathered her things, they stepped back over towards their boat and pondered the future a bit. If their visions held any truth she appeared to have the possibility to be quite the mage, given the chance. Curiosity had them wondering which way she might go.

Her mention of her schedule got a nod from them. "Quite the intelligent one," they compliment. Enough was known by them of how the college system worked to at least know that a masters was impressive. "I am sure once you will do well. For now, I shall ensure I get in contact with you some time after your classes."

Mob Mentality

@badmusejail

Alex had not been expecting to be faced with a relatively large and very vocal mob more or less blocking any of the easy accesses to the University when she got there that afternoon. As soon as she got within hearing distance, however, it became clear just what, exactly, was going on.

Lovely. Another anti-monster protest.

A disgusted look crossed the mage's face briefly at the sight of so many people all yelling at the top of their lungs about how offended they were that monsters would dare set foot on such prestigious grounds.

As if most of the people there even had right to complain. They didn't even go to this University!

Sighing, Alex avoided getting any closer to the mob, opting to skirt around the edge of the building, sneaking in through one of the side entrances that mostly only the faculty tended to use in the effort to avoid the crowd out front.

She really didn't want to have to deal with a large group of overgrown babies if she could help it.

Given the mob, she had figured that Dr. Gaster had likely ended up having to cancel the lecture for today, but shockingly when she peeked her head into the usual lecture hall, she was surprised to see him there.

“Beat the crowd here, I take it?” She asked, noting that no one else had entered yet. Fair, given there was still time before the lecture was scheduled to start, and the aforementioned 'crowd' was blocking the main entrance to the building.

[wishing-stones]

so you write a lot for the bsg but do you do any of the other aus?

I do! I have variations on most of the "common" AUs throughout the fandom.

Underfell is fairly stock, but I don't subscribe to Boss and Red having that abusive relationship. It's mostly performative and almost all of it was Red's idea in the first place. If Boss looks tough enough to order his older brother around, no one's going to fuck with him. Monsters aren't violent by nature here, but they are hostile because they don't know who's friend and who's foe. Still, by default of being made partially of compassion, deaths are rare, and most fights are to the pin if they break out.

Underswap is also pretty stock, but if you pay attention, my Blue is quite smart and ramps up the goofiness and bumbling attitude to play to people's expectations. He seems unassuming, but he'll beat your ass if you step wrong. He's still viciously protective of his younger brother. Still, he's a massive sweetie with a huge heart, he's just... tired. Stretch is optimistic and good-natured, but prefers to take it easy. No one's going anywhere anytime soon.

Horrortale is an AU where they've resorted to eating one another and any stray humans who happen to fall down. Axe feels like it's his job to take care of the Underground since someone is more concerned with her power than anything else. Crooks is still quite kind and compassionate, but he will not hesitate to do something for the greater good of monsters. He's every bit as dangerous as his brother is.

Swapfell has a couple of variants for me: Swapfell in general is more often than not Blackberry and Rus. Black is a no-nonsense, competent captain beneath Alphys' general position, and he's very.... militaristic. He's a very tough nut to crack, but he's not unkind. He's just strict. Rus is pretty laid back and easygoing, but don't mistake his apathy for compliance - he's just as dangerous as his brother is, and sometimes, even more so. Black might give someone a fighting chance. If Rus doesn't think they deserve it, he won't. Generally, this is a good post-pacifist timeline, but I have a variation similar to Panic Room where things... aren't quite as good. Fellswap is my distinction for another AU, but with Razz and Mutt. It's a surface verse; monsters were never ushered underground, and have lived in a sort of tumultuous truce with humanity. Razz has accepted the position of King after a coup killed the Dreemurr family, leaving the kingdom without leadership. He beat Alphys for it because he knew she'd be out for blood. He has more nuance and tact, and wanted to prevent all-out war. For the most part, he's been successful, and the kingdom is quite prosperous... but he still has his brother as the head of intel. Mutt is his eyes and ears everywhere because Mutt is very good at not being noticed. He's a little more standoffish than other variations, but that's because he takes his job very seriously. He's protecting his big bro, who tends to run himself ragged for the kingdom. Make no mistake though; Razz believes in very swift justice, and tolerates no dissenters plotting against him. Disagreeing with him is fine. Organizing another coup is not. Swapfell Purple is the last of these, with Plum and Cash. Plum is chaotic as hell, but still smart and cunning. He would rather not take a life if he can avoid it-- he'll always give his opponent the chance to back out, but if they don't, he will not hesitate. He tends to project unpredictability as a mask so that he gets left the hell alone. The less people bother him, the easier it is to avoid conflict. Cash... is a bit of a trickster and a swindler. He's fairly chill unless you owe him money. Or you wronged he and his. Money is everything to him because it's how he and his brother survive. He's very good at sleight of hand out of necessity and tends to have... sticky phalanges.

Underlust is another one I write for but haven't gotten to explore a whole lot. I have taken some of the notes from it and made it make a little more sense. I've taken out a lot of the uh... questionable things in this AU and solidified that Consent is Key, because without consent, the monsters can't make the energy needed to break the barrier. (The tl;dr of this is that sex makes energy and the royal scientist figured out how to catch the excess.) Lust and Strip are here, and they're both very kind and pretty relaxed. Lust is a part of the workforce, but when he's not out engaging, he enjoys hanging out at the bar and playing Everyone's Therapist. He's a fantastic listener and usually offers pretty sound advice. Strip wants to be in this variation of the Royal Guard, of course, but it's a very demanding position to be in. He's kind of waffling on it in private while presenting that confidence outwardly.

Other AU's I've touched (that don't directly involve the BSG or Stars) include Outertale, Lustswap (same sort of concept as above) and some variations of mafia verses, but 1920's noir isn't as much my thing. I also have my own AU called Nobletale that needs to have the deets hammered out.

@umeboshi--bones co-authors a lot of these AU takes and helped me work them out, so she deserves a lot of credit here as well.

Asgore listens politely as both Valor and Wing Din talk, keeping a small smile fixed on his face, even as the words absolutely shock him.

Not a human? He'd have been inclined to disbelieve Valor- he seems like a perfectly nice man. He wouldn't have assumed him lying, just mistaken in some way.

But Wing Din? Wing Din would never ever make that mistake. Valor is not human.

As that really sinks in, his smile doesn't change, but tension visibly slips from his shoulders. He doesn't have to FIGHT anyone today. Doesn't have to kill.

|👑| ❝Well,❞ he says softly, while starting to pout hot water into the cups with the tea infusers, ❝I'm certainly glad to hear that. We can make sure everyone else learns that too. I'm terribly sorry if any of my people gave you trouble; they're all very eager to help, even though I've asked them not to.❞ |🔥|

It's his burden to bare, not theirs.

Wing Din's further words cause a change in that nice smile, surprise flickering across his face. He exhales softly, closing his eyes.

That's... an actual plan. He's tried to put Wing Din off researching ways to break the barrier recently. He knows his old friend is working himself too hard on that, with little to show for it. But... this is just a search for ideas; it's an actual plan.

Wing Din's mind on this, with an actual starting point?

That could work. And he laughs- a giddy little laugh- giving the pair a much wider grin than the moment before.

Hope is an incredible thing, and one that was in short supply for Asgore.

|👑| ❝Oh, that's AMAZING! You should make that research priority #1, Wing Din!❞ |🔥|

Dr. Gaster doesn't even hesitate to sit at the table with Asgore, having been strong-armed into tea with the king enough times that it's routine.

He'll have to ask again later who Valor was talking about with Belos.

❝I CAN CONFIRM THAT,❞ he says when Valor says that he's not human, ❝HIS SOUL IS WEAKER THAN A HUMAN'S. IT IS STRONGER THAN A MONSTER'S, BUT THAT'S NOT PARTICULARLY RELEVANT.❞

He anticipates Asgore's relief at that news, and presses on, hoping to follow it with better news; hope for a way out.

❝AND BY REALM, I BELIEVE HE'S REFERRING TO WHAT I'VE CALLED DIFFERENT UNIVERSES. AND WE MAY BE ABLE TO CREATE A PORTAL TO HIS HOME REALM, USING IT AS A PATH OUT OF THE UNDERGROUND. NO MORE KILLING NEEDED.❞

Hi!! Do you have any hcs about the Quagmire triplets? :))

Hello anon! I have headcanons for the Quagmires triplets, book-verse and Netflix show, being different continuities.

As I am in a Netflix ASOUE mood today, the headcanons about the Quagmires triplets headcanons are for the Netflix show. It's rather long, so it's going to go underneath the cut after Duncan's headcanons.

I do hope you enjoy my Netflix-based headcanons!

Duncan Quagmire

Alongside wanting to be a journalist, Duncan has a habit of writing down interesting history facts in his commonplace notebook.

Has terrible handwriting. Worse, Duncan sometimes eats when writing, so there’s food stains on a few pages that smudges his already messy handwriting.

As there is evidence of a low-key romance between Violet and Duncan in the books (very low-key), Duncan has a crush on Violet, thinking he’s subtle with it (he’s not).

Gets close to Hector during post-TVV. Duncan isn’t sure why, but he thinks it may be due to both of them being close on the verge of crying when they feel like it.

Even though he’s the oldest, Duncan is the timidest of his siblings, and would prefer to avoid any means of confrontation. Duncan stopping Carmelita bullying the Baudelaires was him taking assertive action for the first time.

While not really a night owl, Duncan can survive the day with only five hours of sleep without getting (too) cranky and snapping at someone.

Always likes to keep his hair short as well as neat. Duncan doesn’t mind long hair (he even grew it out once to match Quigley for an April Fools prank), but he personally thinks the long hair image is not for him, for he is neat and organized.

Would never think about using physical force in any way or form, even if the person probably deserves it; Duncan is a true pacifist.

Is not a swearer, because he doesn’t know many swears words/too polite.

Duncan has perfect vision (or at least better than Isadora’s vison). As such, he’s the first to spot Quigley at the ruins of Anwhistle Aquatic.

Isadora Quagmire

Alongside her interest in poetry, she has a love of cursive. Isadora can also copy other people handwriting. She can’t copy Duncan’s handwriting though.

Due to having long hair, Isadora likes to experiment with different hairstyles, usually with her mother’s help. The main style she likes the most is her default down look.

Isadora doesn’t like to use physical force, so more often than not Isadora will try insulting a person to their face. That said, Isadora almost throws a punch at Carmelita when the girl tried to bully Duncan and got him close to crying, but stop due to Duncan’s insisting

Is bi, like her namesake (Isadora Duncan). Isadora has crush on Klaus. For a while, she had a crush on Carmelita until the ‘bullying Duncan’ incident made Isadora do a 180.

Isadora’s favorite meal of the day is breakfast. Her favorite type of breakfast food is pancakes (with fruit), so she’s always extra happy when it’s being served.

Definitely know some swear words. Isadora learns them all through tutors and visitors to the household who believed were swearing in private, when the reality is Isadora was eavesdropping on them.

While having a great relationship with her brothers, Isadora wishes that she has a sister she can talk to. There are things Duncan and Quigley will never understand completely.

Isadora likes to doodles random things in her commonplace notebook. As she is not the greatest artist, Isadora’s doodles sometimes look similar to cursive handwriting.

Isadora has a fear of heights, so her climbing up the Self-Sustaining Hot Air Mobile Home was super scary. Living in it is such, a challenge for her, but she managed.

Quigley Quagmire

Alongside his interest in cartography, Quigley has a minor interest in photography. He really likes to take photos of the night sky, especially if the moon is full.

Is a prankster, but only if he’s in the mood to cause trouble. He roped Duncan in the past for April Fools due to being identical to one another and has no regrets.

Despite being the youngest, Quigley is mistaken for the oldest because he’s much more assertive than Duncan, which creates the ‘oldest triplet’ impression.

Messy Eater™. At times, Quigley will eat with the wrong utensil or eat by hand if there are no utensil around for him to use.

Always has the wish to grow out his hair. It’s not like Quigley hates his short and neat hair, he just wants a look that reflects him being a messy and disorganized person. As such, Quigley post-Quagmire fire didn’t bother to cut his hair to live out his dream.

Is not only a light sleeper, but Quigley also has difficult falling to sleep. If he’s disturbed by any noise, it’s hard for him to go back to sleep with ease.

Quigley once tried taking accordion lessons, but dropped it because it was much more difficult than he imagined. Reading about Snicket made Quigley wish he continued it.

Honestly did not except himself to get a crush on Violet after knowing her for a few hours, but Quigley has no regrets with their implied first kiss.

Hates himself for looking inside the Sugar Bowl. He wished he never look inside it.

Quigley only knew Hector for a few minutes, but he 100% trusts the handyman.

Life’s Balancing Act - Honkai Star Rail Verse.

"Good medicine tastes bigger, sweet honey causes harm. Balance begets choice, and choice breeds Freedom." Life is Too Short - Anonymous

Tldr: Defector of the Loufu and Emanator of The Equilibrium, Yanfei has been tasked with observing planets (or people) that verge on upsetting the balance that HooH strives to obtain. Depending on the situation, she acts as a mediator or agitator, believing herself destined to help obtain the perfect balance of the Universe.

When the waters are calm and there is no need for her "guidance", She can often be found bouncing from planet to planet under the guise of being an interstellar legal adviser.

( Headcanons Masterlist at the bottom of this post! )

History:

An unassuming life in the Xianzhou Loufu, Yanfei grew up in the residential areas of the Exalting Sanctum. Her parents, both Xiehzhi immigrating from an unknown planet prior to her birth, came to the Alliance after hearing stories of the flagships being under the protection of the Aeon Lan. Being of a different race entirely, Yanfei and her parents were not burdened with the possibility of becoming mara-struck. Unfortunately, their fate would be sealed in a different horror. This event would be the same time that the Aeon Hooh would cast a glance in her direction, allowing her to draw power from the path of Equilibrium.

The decision to leave the Xianzhou Alliance wasn’t one that bothered her much. Her parents were no more and the people she grew up around were becoming mara-struck at unnerving rates – nothing was tying her to the area. After stealing a Starskiff from the central harbor, Yanfei has been on the move ever since.

Goals/Ideals:

Yanfei generally opts to stay out of most disputes with the reasoning that "HooH has already accounted for it" but will intervene if she deems it threatens universal balance. A pacifist at heart, Yanfei tries to interact with people as normally as possible with the intention of fitting in and laying low.

While some Aeons actively seem choose their emanators to enact their will upon planets, HooH is not one of them. It's stated that they doesn't pay mind to "Vulgar Mortal Drama", including their own pathstriders. Despite vague whisperings of people and places to keep watch of, Yanfei has little involvement with HooH or what they have planned for the universe.

Abilities:

*** None of these will affect interactions unless we have talked about it ooc! While I think these  are fun/important for her own lore, I recognize not everyone will want to go along with it which is absolutely fine!

Prevailing Truth: Xiezhi possess the innate ability to distinguish the truth from lies. This is not a gift blessed upon her by Aeon HooH but a species ability. While she may know when someone wishes to deceive her, she rarely makes a point to call it out; There is simply no point. Equilibrium will handle them in due time.

Persuasive Reasoning: This ability is one that all Arbitrators are gifted by the Aeon HooH, meant to guide those who may be straying back towards Equilibrium. What may come of as extremely convincing advice is more than it may seem... (she's evade IPC questioning a few times with this teehee)

The Arbitrators, much like many of the other Star Rail factions, aren't exactly friendly towards each other - if they even recognize the others at all. They silently fulfill the wishes of the Aeon HooH with little need to communicate within the group. Yanfei has only met one other Arbitrator in her travels across the stars and the experience wasn't exactly memorable. When asked about the others, she won't have very much to say.

"They are mistaken as gods in many worlds"; most Arbitrators brazenly display their abilities in obnoxious ways, ways that Yanfei refuses to take part of. She does not question the tasks that are asked of her and will do whatever it takes to maintain the net sum of equilibrium.

Is the chara timeline post genocide? Chara and asriel seem to remember stuff from the undertale verse. They also seen to have remembered even before the players interference, if the prequel fic is still canon. There's also no reason why undertale pacifist or neutral would lead to moving to a new world. Meanwhile undertale genocide specifically includes destorying the world and moving on to the next and the weird route itself has a lot of implications, tho that's probably not canon to normal

The Chara Timeline is not post genocide. Much like Deltarune itself, it is ambiguous.

However my interpretation is strictly it’s own universe, without Undertale Route influence. ❤️

The characters can get déjà vu because YES. (Because why not uwu)
