#(Because He Doesn't Think Himself Worthy Of Wearing It Since Sans Perished Under His Rule :)))))))) )

[metaphorthejesterdraws]

(undertale spoilers but mostly just headcanons and stuff) I'm Not Quite Sure How This Got So Out Of Control???

(perhaps surprisingly, this one DOES actually have a very small amount of blood (as well as an off-screen death), so I'm slapping a warning here and in the tags. just in case. no massive violence, though.)

i set out to practice with word bubbles because i intend to make a full-length fancomic series one of these days, and i needed to figure out the word bubble tool.

i figured i'd just use this offhand idea i had about the King Papyrus neutral route and call it a day. well i'm not quite sure what happened but somewhere it went from "simple comic" to "5 pages of what the heck is this". somehow veered into angst again. welp.

(if you feel like reading my logic behind this whole thing here's the initial idea i wrote up like 2 weeks ago lol)

i was thinking about neutral routes (...again...) and i wondered, would the monsters eventually reach a boiling point? like, would they get so fed up with what they perceive to be papyrus' inability to run a kingdom/actually pursue getting a human SOUL that they turn on him?

sans of course would intervene, constantly reassuring everyone that papyrus was doing all he could (which would be the truth!), and even getting just a lil bit ominous and scary if he needed to.

...which got me to thinking something else. if they tried to overthrow him, what steps would they take? where would they stop? monsters' SOULs are made of love after all (and monsters rarely, if ever, show desire to harm another monster at ALL), but would they take a life if it meant freedom...?

which led me to:

#tw: blood #tw: murder #my silly undertale headcanons #sans #undertale #papyrus #art?? #PLEASE HELP THEM AAAAAAAA #oh this is Sad #“I'M NOT MAD!! I JUST...WANT TO KNOW WHY...” #“...HE SAID HE'D BE BACK BEFORE I KNOW IT...I D-DON'T KNOW WHAT HE MEANS BY THAT...” #“BUT HE TOLD ME NOT TO GIVE UP EITHER!!! SO I WON'T!!
