Sans x You week 2023, ch3: Fun puns.

It all started one day when Sans came home early from work because he wasn't feeling well. He felt feeverish and cranky, and work was slow, and he was a professional at finding excuses not to work so he could go on forever, but the point was that he was dragging his feet toward his apartment in the middle of the day. Most of his neighbors from the apartment building were either at work or in class depending on their age, so the corridors were empty and silent, a blessing for Sans' pounding skull.

Chapter 3 is when the struggle to finding an interesting way to end a chapter with the word 'you' became REAL.🙃

Error has been checking on the original universe a lot lately.

READ ON AO3

Error has been checking on the original universe a lot lately.

He usually doesn't pay it much attention anymore, what with being busy keeping up with the new alternate universes that are born everyday and are invading the story. His hatred for each and every one of them hasn't wavered since the day he was born, and it's a daily struggle to destroy them enough that they cannot be resurrected.

He remembers how he used to check on Undertale all the time back in the day, when he could count the number of alternate universes on the fingers of one hand. Things were simpler back then, and he misses that time when he could take a peek at Undertale and marvel at the happy faces of his beloved original characters.

They're all treasures to him. Toriel, Papyrus, Grillby, the dog, Asgore, Temmie, Alphys and Undyne…

Sans.

Sans is special. He's always been, for Error anyway. He's a part of him, but also not. Being nothing but a string of coding in a simulation, Error doesn't believe in any deity, but if he had to, he'd choose Sans. That's how important the skeleton is to Error.

Call it a crush, Error doesn't mind. He's given up a long time ago putting words onto the adoration he feels for Sans. Sans is special to him and that's all that matters.

Error has always taken great pleasure observing Sans. He never interracts, rarely even pays Undertale an actually visit because even when he does, he needs to stay hidden and make sure no one sees him. They're not aware of the alternate universes in Undertale, it's still only one of Alphys' unproven theories and Error intends to keep it that way.

(It would complicate things if Sans were to form a friendship with his alternates.)

(Because, well… Error's goal is to destroy said alternates.)

Lately though, Error had been too busy to check on Sans on a regular basis, but that has changed with the last Full Reset.

It's always the same with Undertale: all the characters' little, prewritten lives get upended the moment Frisk falls underground from the surface. There are generally three ways things can go from there: a pacifist run where Frisk befriends everyone (except Error), a neutral run where Frisk harms some of the monsters, and a genocide run which is self-explanatory. The later is Error's least favorite, because it's the one where Sans will die no matter what. The neutral run has the wildest variations in terms of results, as the end depends on how many monsters the human child has hurt, as well as their identity; the outcome greatly differs depending on whether Frisk has killed a random Froggit or a boss monster like Undyne.

There is no discernable pattern regarding which path Frisk will choose when they first wake up in the ruins. Error believes that they're more often pacifist than not, but he's too lazy to actually keep track.

When Frisk reaches the end of the story, one of two things will happen: either they free Monsterkind and spend the epilogue with them on the surface, or they don't.

After that, it's only a matter of time before the whole story resets to the very beginning, before Frisk even gets underground. None of the characters are aware of this, but being outside of the story's code, Error is allowed to observe. He then can watch as everything plays out again from the very beginning: the creation of the world, the war between Humans and Monsters, Gaster, the Underground and its various areas, the creation of Sans and Papyrus and how they grow up.

Error watched attentively the first few times, but it'd be a lie to say that it doesn't get repetitive after a while. Not boring, just… less exciting. (Except Sans. Sans is always interesting.) Still, Error enjoys watching again around the time right before Frisk arrives. Sans usually is fun to follow at that time, as he goes about his daily life in Snowdin, unaware of the presence of the little human in the ruins. Error will never get tired of the first time Sans and Frisk meet.

Error's current predicament is that there's been a glitch this time when the story loaded. It's not the first time, it's even happened once that there was no war between the Humans and the Monsters, but it always levels out one way or the other. It's also distinctively different from what an alternate universe is, because this is still very much the story of Undertale, just with a glitch in there. It's more of a timeline mistake, really.

And it's exactly what's happening here. Somewhere around the time Papyrus was created in this timeline, some source code glitched and the correct personality file didn't upload properly, resulting in Papyrus… well… being an asshole. A big one even.

He's not worse than some of what Error has seen in alternate universes, but it has still profoundly affected the balance of his relationship with his brother and as a result, Sans and him are far from being close, which is a key component to the original story.

To put it plainly, Papyrus is a bad brother who regularly hurts Sans, both physically and mentally.

It's hard to watch for Error, who is so very attached to Sans, more than Papyrus at least, but he reasons that it's only temporary. Soon Frisk will show up and do the whole befriend or kill everyone thing and then it'll all reset and start again. The glitch should be fixed by then. Hopefully.

But Error can't quite stop himself for checking on Sans more regularly, and what he sees rarely appease him. If Sans had some down moments in previous timelines, it's nothing compared to how depressed he is right now, and Error has to bite his tongue hard to stop himself from barging in when he witnesses from the safety of his void how nasty Papyrus can be in this timeline. He says and does things to his older brother that make Error's marrow boil.

For the most part, Sans accepts the harshness. He doesn't know better, he's grown up with this twisted version of Papyrus and knows nothing of the genuine care he's supposed to feel for the other. It doesn't help Error's feelings settle, because at the end of the day, all he's going to see is Sans hanging his skull low as he discreetly flees into the woods for a silent cry. Error can't do much besides staying there, watching helplessly Sans cry his SOUL out and offering words of hollow comfort that Sans will not hear.

Today is such a day. Sans is cooking in the kitchen, making lunch, before Papyrus shows up and blows up at his brother for no apparent reason. He says awful things and threatens Sans to beat him up, Sans tries to diffuse the situation but it doesn't work, of course, and the two have a big fight that culminates in Papyrus throwing an attack at Sans, who teleports out of the way before he runs out the door.

When he'd usually go into the woods to calm down, this time Sans hurries to the basement, where Gaster's broken universe-hopping machine waits. Error gets scared that Sans might try to fiddle with it and find another universe to run away to, to get as far from Papyrus as possible, and Error can't let that happen. It's not the first time Sans fixes the machine, he usually turns really desperate during neutral runs where his brother doesn't survive and thinks that the device is a time machine that will let him go back before Frisk beheads Papyrus. Error always manages to make it so that Sans doesn't accidentally universe-hops, but with the glitch affecting this timeline, he doesn't know whether his usual methods will work or not.

Sans randomly presses at all the buttons on the keyboard and even though Error knows that won't do shit until the machine itself is fixed, he knows that Sans is one breakdown away from trying that. Error panics and, trying to get closer to see what Sans is doing, he enters the machine. His outsource code messes with the piece of junk, enough that in the blink of a glitch, he finds himself thrown onto the hard cold floor of the basement.

He coughs and shakes his skull as he rubs his arm, looking back at the damn machine. He makes a mental note never to set foot into that thing again. Who knows what kind of consequences such a glitch could have in the future? Error would rather not find out.

He clumsily gets back up and turns around to check on Sans and see how he's doing with the keyboard.

Only to find Sans staring at him, his eyesockets still wet with angry tears and his mouth wide agape.

Error immediately understands the situation and lets out a long, tired sigh.

"fuck."

Sans is momentarily distracted from his pain, which Error is thankful for, and throws a billion questions at him, wondering who he is and where he comes from and why his bones are so dark and if he's related to Sans and why he actually looks like Sans' twin but with black bones and how he got here and so many more that by the time Error gets a word in, it's already night out.

Error explains very roughly who he is, not bothering with the most complicated details. Sans doesn't need to know, it's better if he doesn't actually. Error then very quickly stirs the conversation into comforting words and encouragements, telling Sans that there's something wrong with Papyrus and not with him, and that's why he's lashing out at his big brother so much.

Sans lets out a pitiful and heart breaking chuckle at that.

"yeah well, maybe if i wasn't so damn pathetic he'd be less on my case."

It leaves a bad taste in Error's mouth. Even if he knows that Frisk's Full Reset of the story will fix the glitch, he doesn't like Sans thinking like this, ever.

"no, sans, you don't understand. papyrus is not supposed to be like this. he's a good brother, and you're a good brother too. it's just a glitch," Error tries to explain as best he can. "you two get along really well, you're always spending time together and you never fight, not for real. you tease each other and banter a lot, but it's always in good spirits. i've never seen two monsters get along as well as you and papyrus, i promise."

There's a shift in Sans' eyelights as he listens to Error speak and then he smiles bitterly, his voice sad and broken and wet as he says, "but my papyrus will never be like that, right? because he's just a glitch."

Error realizes how he did the very opposite of comforting Sans as he watches the other crumble into sobs. Sans curls into himself like he's trying to disappear and make the pain go away.

Error is at a loss, he doesn't know what to do. His mind is blank, and so he doesn't think about what he's doing as his arms wrap around Sans' oh so small frame. He pulls Sans into his chest and rocks him as Sans wails into his arms, his hands shakily gripping at the front of Error's jacket.

Error can't do much more than apologize for revealing the hurtful truth to Sans and reassure him as best he can that at least he has Error now to confide in, or vent whenever Papyrus harms him. Error vows that he'll never leave Sans alone and hurt anymore. That's the least he can do. He might not be able to fix the glitch, but he can try to make Sans' current timeline a better experience.

They start to hang out, a lot. If Error avoided making any contact with the characters before, he shrugs that there's no point in hiding his existence now that Sans knows about it. He swears to himself never to intervene in future timelines, but this one is a lost case anyway, and he might as well enjoy Sans' company.

Turns out that Sans is an even more wonderful monster that Error thought, which says a lot, considering how high he already thought of the chubby skeleton. Sans is smart, fun, caring, witty, beautiful and Error is drawn to him like a moth to a flame. He's quick to get out of his depressive funk Error accidentally provoked, and gets livelier and happier each day he spends with Error. They usually just stay in the basement, chatting and playing games, but sometimes Sans brings him to the Snowdin forest, where they build snow sculptures, play between the trees, share secrets under the falling snow and just overall have an amazing time.

The sadness sometimes comes back to Sans' eyelights, but it's quickly replaced by unbridled joy when he spots Error. He knows then that his day is going to be better. With time, he shows less and less bitterness about Papyrus. His brother's nasty words seem to not reach him as deep anymore, and Error is relieved for Sans.

They spend about four months like that, hanging out together everyday, until Error finally announces the news that the little human is on their way. Frisk will arrive in the Underground within a week or two, and if they're in a good mood, Monsterkind might even get freed.

He makes sure not to mention the possibility of a genocide run. Sans doesn't need to hear about it in this timeline. He's suffered enough and ignorance is bliss.

(And if push comes to shove, Error is ready to intervene this time, whatever that entails.)

"you'll get to see the surface!" Error beams at his friend. "the sunset, and the stars, and the sky. And real rain and real snow."

"wow… that sounds nice," Sans whispers in awe with a beautiful smile. "i can't wait."

Sans carefully lets his skull drop on Error's shoulder. Error is tempted to wrap a comforting arm around Sans' waist, but he doesn't go further than thinking about it. He splashes his feet into the water of the luminescent stream in front of them instead. Sans is right, Waterfall really is the best place to hang out.

"error, what will happen to you when the human comes?" Sans asks after a while. "you said that i'm supposed to befriend them, but what about you? you're kinda me, right? will you be their friend too?"

Error hums. He does care about Frisk a great deal and would love to hang out with the tiny human, especially if Sans is there as well. He can already picture the three of them playing in the snow by the entrance of the ruins. Maybe Sans and Error could sneak up behind Frisk and surprise them, that could be fun.

He shakes his skull gently.

"i'll fade in the background for a while. it's your story, sans, and i don't want to influence it more than i already have. i've already said more than i was allowed to, to be honest."

Sans pouts. "hmmm. not fun." He then adds in a quieter voice. "what about papyrus? is he going to be the human's friend too? or is he going to…"

Sans doesn't need to finish the thought and Error does wrap that arm around the other, squeezing him reassuringly.

"don't worry about this, sans. it's almost over anyway. when frisk gets here and finishes their run, the world will be reset and papyrus will go back to normal. the risks of the same glitch happening again are very slim, so you'll forget he even treated you that way and you two will be best brothers again. i promise."

Suddenly, Sans sits up, removing his skull from Error's shoulder, making him miss the contact. Error worries he said something wrong again and stares intently at his friend.

"i'll forget about it? about papyrus being mean to me? really?"

"yes, sans. i know it's hard to imagine for you right now, but trust me. you're going to forget this timeline, everything about it, and then you'll be happy again." Error scratches his cheek as he looks to the side and adds, "i'm not saying things will be easy for you, you also struggle in other timelines, but you'll have papyrus to support you. you won't remember how awful he is right now."

This doesn't seem to be the thing to say to cheer Sans up, because it doesn't work and Sans looks almost gloomier with each new word that goes out of Error's mouth, so he shuts up, waiting for Sans to speak his mind.

Error's patience is rewarded a couple minutes later.

"what if i don't want to forget?"

Error blinks.

"what?"

"i think i don't want to forget." This time, Sans looks straight at Error.

"but… why? you'll be happier if you forget all of this ever happened."

"not if i have to forget you."

The words barely register before Error feels Sans' teeth press against his mouth. He instinctively closes his eyesockets and lets Sans kiss him. Sans runs his tongue along Error's teeth, asking for entrance that is easily granted.

Only the echo flowers around them witness their love, and they too will forget all about this soon.

But even if Sans and the echo flowers and the entire world forget about this moment, Error will remember.

Error will never forget.

brett with a very shy reader ? most x readers have a too bold personality for me to relate too lol, gender is unimportant and just headcannons pleaseee :) ty

HIII OMG YALL REQUESTED A WHOOOLLE LOT AND IM SO SORRY IVE TOOK SO LONG TO GET TO THEM BUT I PROMISE I WILL! I’ve just been so busy lately but I’ve finally got some free time on my hands so be ready for looots of posts. ANYWAYS let’s get to it, thanks so much for requesting! (Btw this one is a long one…and cheesy)

Brett x shy reader fluff(gender neutral)

“Deep breathes, okay. You can do this.” You quietly whisper to yourself, nervously fiddling with the seams of your shirt. It’s the first day of your new job in the shadow government at Cognito inc. taking one last deep breath and push the doors open walking up to the front desk. “Hi, im Y/n. Im new here and someone named Reagan said to ask you for instructions.” The secretary just looks you up in down with the blankest expression you’ve ever seen and simply said “go to the 2nd floor, conference room.” You awkwardly look away and thank the lady. Geez so much for good first impressions. Following the mean ladys instructions you stand right in front of the conference doors and give it a quick knock. “Come in!” You hear a women shout. Opening the doors you see who you assume is your boss, Regan. “Hi, I’m Regan your boss . Since of now you are part of the task force.” That was super brief, you thought. You’re a little shocked at how quickly you had been assigned to a job. “Oh um okay, well when do I get to meet this team of mine?” You question her a little scared to meet the rest of your co-workers. “Ah sorry I called you in a bit earlier than everyone else just so you could adjust to your office a bit. I’ll show you the way there then you’ll come back here when your done settling down to meet everyone else.” Regan walks you out to your office and leaves soon after. Your body slumps and your bag falls onto your desk as you sit down. “Well this hasnt been too bad. Regan doesn’t talk too much, which is kind of awkward but I mean so am I.” You talk to yourself in your small office hearing your voice echo a little on the walls from the emptiness in the room. Well I guess I should start heading back I’ve been here a while, sighing you stand up and hesitantly go to the conference room once more. You open the doors to find more people sitting down at the large table in the conference room, all suddenly turning their heads to look at you. In embarrassment your face flushes a little and you look at the floor awkwardly. “Oh, sorry everyone um hi I’m Y/n.” You quietly introduce yourself. “Oh my gosh!” *SQUEEL* “You must be our new co worker!” *gasp* You sharply gasp, surprised by being pulled into a tight hug and squeezed up into the air. Your face grows even hotter and flustered not knowing who is touching you or what to do. You look down to see the person hugging you so tightly and see a tall and really attractive guy. And suddenly your even more flustered if that’s possible. “Brett how many times do we have to tell you, you don’t hug people who don’t know you.” Reagan sighs tiredly, clearly this isn’t the first time he’s done this. “Oh! Right sorry… I’m just so excited to have a new addition to our gang!” He quickly puts you done and apologizes. “Y/n you can come sit down with us now, everyone just introduce yourselves normally please.” Wow, Regan already seems done and the day just started. “Oh okay.” Shit, well where am I supposed to sit? You look to the right and see that weird guy who hugged you patting the seat next to him. You just quickly look away and sit next to Regan on the opposite side from him. You don’t mean to be harsh but you’re just nervous to be close to him. And strange enough he looks sad you didn’t sit next to him. “Alright well I’m Andre Lee, the tasks force one and only biochemist. I also got the good stuff-if you know what I mean wink wink.” He elbows your side while dramatically winking. “You are such a weirdo Andre.” The next girl rolls her eyes at Andre “whatever, I’m Gigi Thompson, best looking one here and PR of the media manipulation department. I’m sure you’ve seen my work because I am everywhere.” She laughs at her own flattery. “And I’m Glen Dolphman, Cognito Inc’s supersoilder and responsible for managing the company’s arsenal.” He says while firmly saluting to the American flag. “Oh and I’m Brett Hand! And uh I guess I just work here.” He laughs awkwardly at the last part as it seems he doesn’t even know why he’s here. “Okay now that everyone has introduced themselves let’s get to business.”

Regans voice just fades out slowly from your head as your distracted by a certain someone. You just stare at him in confusion and curiosity, Brett seems like such a strange yet normal guy. Though as your staring at him you can say he is really cute. Lost in your thoughts you don’t even notice when Brett catches you staring at him at first. He smiles at you and you quickly look away in embarrassment.

Eventually the hours pass you by and your first day on the job was over. You’re glad it was nothing crazy but planning things and paperwork. Reagan promised you’d be safely at the office, just for your first few days. You collect your things from your office and head to your car in the parking lot. Content enough with your first day you decide to get a quick pick me up at Starbucks. You sit at a table by yourself waiting for your vanilla with extra sweet cream foam cold brew, your regular. “Oh hey Y/n, it’s me Brett!” You look at up from your phone in surprise. Brett stood smiling right in front of you. Immediately filled with awkward nervousness you look away from him and down the the table. “Um hi…” you quietly respond to him, clearly not matching his energy. Brett immediately frowns with sadness. “Hey, I’m sorry that I hugged you without your permission. I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable, I was just so excited to meet you! From now on I promise I’ll always ask before touching you.” Surprised at his apology you look up to see him smiling sweetly at you. You feel your cheeks warm up and little and you start to smile just a little. “Thanks, I really appreciate it Brett.” You finally spoke to him while making eye contact! Brett’s eyes light up with happiness, just glad you accepted his apology. Before either of you could say anything else the employee called out your order. “Oh that’s me, sorry Brett I have to go now but um it was really nice to see you.” You grab your bag and coffee and wave goodbye to Brett. Finally at home lying in your bed trying to sleep, you find yourself staring at the ceiling unable to stop thinking about something. Or more like someone. You couldn’t get Brett Hand out of your head and it was unbearable. What was so intriguing about him to you? I mean surely you cant like him you just met. I’m sure it’s just cause your excited about having a new friend. Yes of course, that’s the answer. All these thoughts rush through your head for the next few hours of you sleepless night.

You wave lazily at the front desk lady on your way into the office this morning, tired from you lack of sleep from last night. You drop a few things off at the office and report to the conference room shortly after as Reagan directed. You walk in and it’s just Reagan, seems like your a bit early. “G’mornin.” You mumble and take a sit next to her slumping tiredly in the chair. “Woah you look just like me, what’s wrong?” Reagan questions your tired face knowing it a little too well. You slowly lift your head off the table to look at her with half closed eyes. “Hm? Oh sorry, im just really tired. I couldnt sleep last night and I forgot to get coffee this morning too.” You slur and mumble all your words but it’s clear enough for Reagan to understand what your saying. “Ah I get that but my question is, why were you having trouble sleeping?” And before you could fumble over your words trying to make an excuse the answer bursts right through the doors. “Hey guys! How’s it going?” Brett’s energy is way too much for you this morning so you just put your head back down and doze off as Regan and Brett talk for a bit. Yet before you can fall asleep Brett calls out your name. “Y/n, look up.” “Hm?” You hum and left your head of the table once more to look up at whatever Brett wanted. He was holding out a coffee to you. You wake up a little from the shock and slowly sit up straight. “Is this for me?” You look at him confused. “Yes of course, I swinged by this morning to get you it. it’s a vanilla cold brew with extra sweet cream foam!” He gleefully beams at you. “But that’s what I always get?” You look at him stumped “how do you know my order?” Still confused you question Brett. “Oh well I I remember what order the employee called out yesterday when I saw you.” He smiles once more and you gently reach out your hands to grab the cup. And suddenly your sense of touch heightens when your fingers brush softly against Brett’s as you grab the cold cup. You share one last look with Brett before he quickly jolts up. “Oh! I just remembered I should go find the others. I know they’re here probably just running late.” He smiles and heads off to find the rest of your co workers. You just sit there starring off into space from where Brett last stood. “Hey Y/n” “hello?” “Y/N!” Regan yells at you to wake up from your day dream. “Oh regan, sorry I spaced out.” “Yea I could tell. Now let’s get ready for another stressful meeting.” You fully turn your attention to helping Regan prepare for the day.

Once again the work day is over and it’s time to leave as your walking out to the doors of your office you’re stopped by a certain someone. “Hey Y/n! Great work today.” It’s Brett. “Oh, thanks Brett…” fuck you’re internally screaming. Why does this guy make you so nervous? Hiding your face from Brett inevitable feeling the heat flush to your cheeks once more. “Um by the way, thanks for the coffee. It was really cool of you.” Cool? Gosh I sound like a dork. You internally beat your self up for your stupid choice of words. “No problem! Anything for a pal.” He giggles a little from his own statement and winks at you playfully. “Okay we’ll see you tomorrow Y/n!” And with that you both exchanges waves and goodbyes. Once finally out of eyesight you mentally face palm and groan into your hands. Gosh. That was embarrassing “Honey, I just saw that whole thing and whooh that was awkward.” You quickly turn around to see who saw your embarrassing display with Brett and it was Gigi. “Ugh I know but I just can’t figure out why I’m so awkward around him.” You cringe at just remembering your interaction. And yet you find yourself weirdly comfortable talking to Gigi. “Mmhm I think I know exactly why.” She just gives you an all knowing look up and down. “Really? Please tell me why.” You plead do her to enough you so you can just solve the issue already. “It’s because you like him.” “WHAT?” You accidentally yell out in shock covering your mouth quickly. “I mean, why do you say so?” This time whispering so no one near could hear. “Honey it’s written all over that little face of yours.” You groan loudly at her claim. Could that really be the reason your social skills suck more then usual when talking to Brett? “But I just met him, how could I already like him?” You ask Gigi since she seems to be much more knowledgeable in this aspect. “Well I couldn’t tell you. After all how am I supposed to know why YOU like him? All I know is lover boy seems to be developing a few feelings of his own.” And with that mind breaking statement she leaves you alone with just you and your thoughts. Brett like me?? No way. Not in a million years. These words echoing through your head the whole way home. Throwing yourself over your bed with exhaustion more over your conflicting emotions rather than your heavy work load and eventually passing out.

A few weeks pass and your now comfortable in your new work environment, strange but now familiar. Yet one thing has not changed, the awkwardness you feel when around Brett. And yes those feelings Gigi talked about have not left one bit, in fact you’d say they’ve grown over time. Brett’s nice gestures always make your stomach flutter with butterflies and your heart face like some 3rd grade crush. “Y/nnnn, Come on! He clearly likes you, why not just make a damn move already. Everyone in the office practically knows already! It’s so obvious.” Gigi shouts at you while your just trying to enjoy your sandwich. You asked to have lunch together not a therapy session… “Gigi shhh! Don’t say that so loud!” You sigh and put your sandwich down “look, I like him sure but we don’t know for sure if he does and-“ “OH PLEASE!” Gigi cuts you off abruptly shouting and throwing her arms in the air. “He’s always extra nice to you and trust me Brett’s already way too nice. Plus he’s always bring you little gifts all the time.” She huffs and rolls her eyes at you. “Whatever Gigi, I’m not making any moves so sorry to dissatisfy your office romance fantasies.” You roll you eyes back at her and clean up since your lunch break is over leaving back to your office and go finish up some paperwork for Reagan. “Oh I will get my office romance wether you want it or not.” Gigi talks to herself planning a ‘special’ surprise for you.

*KNOCK* *KNOCK* you sigh getting up from your chair to open the door to your office. “Oh hi Gigi, Reagan, What do you need?” You see the two girls standing in front of your door. “Hey Y/n we were hoping you could help us find something in the chemical closet.” Gigi asks in a weirdly high pitch voice. “Sure,what is it?” You ask wondering what it was they couldn’t find. “Oh follow us then we’ll tell you”. So you follow Reagan and Gigi to the chemical closet and go inside. “It’s called fizzyflupflurp acid.” You can hear one of them trying to hold in a laugh behind you “Really? That sounds kind of stupid.” But before you can say anymore they quickly leave in a rush saying to just call them when you find it since they’re so “busy”. Huh, weird. But I mean this whole place is weird. You just think to yourself as you look through the various viles for ‘fizzyflupflurp’ acid. Suddenly you hear lots of giggling behind you and hear Brett stumble into the closet falling right on to you. He lets out a grunt from the impact of you two colliding and before either of you can get a word out you hear the lock click and Gigi and Reagan giggles burst out into laughter. You push brett aside and rush to the door trying to open the door but it’s locked, pounding your fist on the door in frustration when it doesn’t open. “Let us out!” You yell at the other two behind the door. “Yeah, What are we locked in here for?” Brett chimes in. “Oh I think you know why you’re in there. And we’re not letting you out till one of you spits it out.” You can just hear the smirk on Gigi’s face. You freeze in fear and feel your face turn completely hot and red. “Gosh no.” You breathlessly whisper to yourself not wanting to turn around and face Brett. “AH OKAY I ADMIT IT,” Brett suddenly yells out “I MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE STALKED YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA TO LEARN YOUR FAVORITE THINGS.” Brett winces as if you might yell at him for what he’s done. “Brett what? No, this isn’t what this is about. And that’s not a horrible thing Brett im not mad at you for it but it is kinda weird…” you sigh preparing yourself to ruin your small friendship with Brett and make it awkward for the rest of your career. “Then what is it about?” Brett asks confused to what other secret needed sharing. “Well it’s… it’s- gosh um” SPIT IT OUT ALREADY internally yelling at yourself to get it over with. “I like you.” You say extremely quite almost enough for Brett to not hear. “Oh well I like you too Y/n! You’re a great friend, that’s no secret.” He laughs at you for your ‘silly’ secret that he just doesn’t seem to understand. “No, Brett. I like like you. As in romantically.” You muster out clarifying things for Brett. It’s silent. Way too silent that you look up to see his expression and he looks so, shocked? Panicked you start apologizing “look Brett I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable I jus-“. Oof is the noise you let out from being knocked back into the closet door. “Brett?” “I’m sorry, I know I said I’d ask next time before hugging you but I just really needed to this time.” He whispers softly and your heart just melts. You hug him back tighter than ever happy he isn’t upset. “I like like you too Y/n” he quietly says nuzzling into your neck and gently squeezes you reassuringly.

I AM SO SORRY I TOTALLY READ THIS REQUEST WRONG I DONT KNOW HOW 😭. well regardless I hope some of you like it but I am truly sorry anonymous hope you can forgive me🙏.

I make a lot of tentacle monster jokes for a guy allergic to calamari and other types of sea food.

I had a lot of fun writing this crossover between Carmen Sandiego, Inside Job, Helluva Boss, and Kim Possible. I plan to continue the Cognito Files series in the future, even after I finish my other fics and have fun with it, exploring lots of different concepts. It could become my next big crossover fan fic series. I hope you enjoy this!

AU Idea for Lokius:

Loki decides to live a domestic life with Mobius/Don and his kids.

However in this universe, Asgard is still around, Odin/Frigga are alive and so are the Avengers. Loki isn't from this universe he tries to get into Cognito because in this universe their Loki died. Loki decides to lay low and play house with Don and his kids as just some foreign fellow who wants to start fresh. ver time Loki does use his powers around the family which he's surprised when instead of pushing him away they look at him with awe even when Loki shapeshift. He befriends his neighbors who take a liking to him and find his abilities quite useful even stating he should try and join the Avengers. Loki denies wanting to join stating he just wants to live a nice/relaxing life where he's at.

While he does everything in his effort to not draw too much attention to himself he ends up being a hot topic online as he uses his powers to stop a robbery at a grocery store where he was getting groceries for his family. Cursing to himself realizing his cover has been blown he soon finds the Avengers busting into Don's home thinking Loki is planning an attack. Loki tells them he's not THEY'RE Loki and is from a different universe who decided to settle down and live his own life.

Thor is surprised by this noticing his bother is completely different. At some point, they realize Loki is telling the truth and has no plans on taking over Midgard/Asgard. Relieved by this they notice that Loki is a lot more powerful than he was before he has changed as a person in which Loki admits that he hated what he used to be and decided to take control of his own life. While Thor is happy that is brother has changed into a better person he is upset that his brother didn't plan to see him or even try to contact him/their family.

Mobius/Don comes to actually realize that he remarried a LITERAL GOD and that Thor is technically his brother-in-law and is the step-uncle to his kids. Thor realizing Loki is married with kids is happy but hurt that he didn't know and that he wants Odin/Frigga to meet they're grandkids.

This is what I have now might write more to this later. Anyone can take this idea as it's just a thought. I might actually write a fic like this but idk. Hope u like so far.

After all that shipping debacle if you don't use winning ship name in your fic summaries or tags I would be extremely disappointed. That awful ship name have to spread among your fans like a cognito-hazard, it would be a shared trauma which strengthen our bonds lol.

But of course anon, @theoriginalcarnivorousmuffin and I are committed. Alphalord or Tard, whoever prevails we shall proclaim to the skies. It's why we're taking this so seriously.

Sans x You week 2023, ch1: Fallen King👑

Being the king of the arcade wasn't an easy feat, and Sans had been coming to this place every day after work for the past 6 months. When he moved here, he decided to go around town to check everything the big city had to offer, and had been elated to find a place where he could play retro games on old arcades. It reminded him of his youth.

I'm really late in posting the links to this fic here, but that's because I was already posting Inktobertale and I didn't want to post everything at once and then post nothing for like 8 months, like I always do. XD So the whole fic is already available on AO3, but I'm still going to post each chapter individually here (to show off the cards I made XD). Anyway, I've been itching to write some Sans/Reader fic ever since I wrote a Pap/Reader one, and so I couldn't resist these prompts!! ♥♥♥ Once again, the entire fic is SFW!

Thank you @htsan for those yummy prompts!! ♥

Rarepair New Year 2024 ch3: Nightmare/Ink, Lamia AU

SFW

Wordcount: 2347

The new house is full of new smells, but one particularly stands out to Nightmare: there's another lamia around. They smell young and their scent is all over the place, indicating the other pet is probably here to stay as they've marked their territory. Nightmare's territory.

READ ON AO3

The new house is full of new smells, but one particularly stands out to Nightmare: there's another lamia around. They smell young and their scent is all over the place, indicating the other pet is probably here to stay as they've marked their territory. Nightmare's territory.

He slithers his massive body around the entrance, carefully grazing every wall to leave his own, stronger scent over the intruder's.

He's aware of the bright yellow eyelights watching him, but he's not stressed about them. They belong to his dear owner, Dream. Nightmare has been with the monster since birth and for those three years, Dream has taken care of him well enough that Nightmare doesn't feel the need to attack him. Anyone else he can and will bite and musk, but not Dream.

He does feel a little unsettled by the other monster who's (poorly) hiding behind his master, another small skeleton Nightmare has heard his master call 'Blue', but also 'love' and 'dear' and 'boyfriend'. Nightmare is a smart lamia, he knows what it means when Dream comes home in the early morning, covered with the other's smell.

Since Blue is so important to Dream, Nightmare has resigned not to bite him (too hard). Hissing is still on the table though, and he won't allow the foreign monster to get too close to him, or try to pet him. That priviledge is for Dream only.

As he continues his inspection of the house, Nightmare realizes why Blue grates on his nerves so much, even compared to total strangers. He wears some of that foreign lamia smell, which in turn tranfers onto Dream's clothes every once in a while. At least it means that by now, Nightmare is more or less used to that alien smell, which is the reason why he doesn't freak out when he notices the other lamia peeking out of their hiding spot.

They are considerably smaller than Nightmare, barely half his size. Their bones are pearly white, very far from Nightmare's dark emerald ones, and their ecto tail is a rainbow of pastel colors that ondulates in the light when they slither forward timidly toward Nightmare. Their mismatched eyelights change form with every blink, curiousity obvious in the way they keep staring at Nightmare.

One more whiff at the other lamia lets Nightmare know that they are actually a he. He doesn't like that. (Not that Nightmare would've been more pleased with a female lamia, he would be grumpy about it just the same.)

Nightmare turns around to shoot an indignified look to his owner, trying to communicate his dissatisfaction at having to meet another lamia. He likes his solitude and Dream should be aware of it by now. It didn't go well the last time Dream brought him to another kissing friend's place and Nightmare had to deal with another lamia, except that one was gigantic and had legs and ears and fur and made such a strange barking sound that forced Nightmare to bite the threat away. Needless to say, Dream never saw that friend again, as it should be if you asked Nightmare's serpentine opinion.

Before Dream can reply or pick Nightmare up to take him away from the indelicate situation, the other lamia lunches at Nightmare's back, wrapping his arms around Nightmare's neck and his tail around his chest. Nightmare struggles in the deathly hold, rolling around and hissing away to make the other let go of him. They tumble around together, knocking a few things.

"INK, STOP!!!" Blue shouts while Dream grabs the squirming noodles to try and separate them.

It ends well and before Nightmare can bite the lamia, Ink apparently, he's brought to safety into Dream's arms, who checks his tail for any puncture mark but he won't find any. Ink is a weakling, he'd never be able to do Nightmare any real damage. Nightmare on the other hand could very easily obliterate the smaller lamia, especially if Ink tries to jump at him again.

"Is Ink okay?" Dream asks his boyfriend, who is busy checking his own lamia for injury, and sighs in relief when Blue nods.

"Yeah, he's fine. I don't think he's even rattled," he chuckles while Ink slithers around his hands, curling up and down his fingers, having the time of his life.

As he wriggles around Blue's hold, Ink looks around, and beams when he notices Nightmare staring at him. Hmpf. Nightmare decides that Ink is a dumb lamia who doesn't deserve his company, and he will have nothing to do with him if he can help it.

Unfortunately, that thought doesn't go quite as planned when a couple months later, Dream and Blue move in together, their lamias now forced to cohabit. Nightmare is not happy with the arrangement, even if he's more used to Ink's smell and presence now that they've met a couple more times so they'd get used to each other more before the move. He spends the majority of his day either snuggled in one of the many moving boxes still laying around, or running away from Ink, who seems very intent to make his life hell by asking to play with Nightmare 24/7. It doesn't help that he's much younger than Nightmare (which explains his ridiculous size and scattered brain tendencies) and has boundless energy. Ink can literally nyoom after Nightmare all day and still have energy left at night to launch himself at Blue when he comes back from the outside world.

It's exhausting, especially since Nightmare is not allowed to bite Ink (at least hard enough to leave a wound). He tried to during the first few times they were forced to meet, and Dream was very crossed with him. So Nightmare reluctantly added Ink to the list of people he cannot chew on, alongside Blue (but Blue is getting better, because now he gives Nightmare food). That doesn't mean he can't royally ignore Ink though, which he happily does whenever he doesn't feel like entertaining the other's endless energy, so that is to say, all the time.

They learn to live with one another for the next few months, and nothing really happens, if you don't count Ink annoying the scales out of Nightmare on a daily basis. They even start playing together from time to time, when Nightmare is in the mood. That being said, it's not that big of a deal, as their playing sessions are usually just Nightmare flopping somewhere warm and Ink nyooming around him at full speed.

It's now the end of summer, and Nightmare decides to flop in a patch of sunlight in the garden, Ink soon joining him to nyoom between the chartreuse grass. They have fun like that for a while, Nightmare even graciously allowing Ink to pull him by the hand so they can nyoom together a little. Blue is watching over them from the patio with a book in his hands while Dream is away.

A ruffling sound suddenly catches Nightmare's attention and he stills while Ink keeps going, as nothing short of his master is powerful enough to stop him mid-nyooming. Nightmare focuses on the edge of the garden, where the fence is broken and the gap between the wood and the ground is large enough to let other animals go through. He's caught a rat once, and ate it whole, which Dream wasn't happy about because it wasn't feeding time yet.

This time, what awaits Nightmare is much bigger than a rat though. Nightmare has seen those around before, from the window upstairs. They roam around at night, with their piercing yellow eyes and dark fur and long antennaes around their mouth. He also knows that they play and eat with his kind when they find a live one. He's seen it too.

Nightmare doesn't want it in his garden, so he crawls forward toward the fence, keeping low and hiding within the grass. The animal notices him too late, he's already launching at it, teeth out and a ferocious hiss in his throat. The animal jumps backward and slaps its mighty paw at Nightmare, who manages to avoid it, his tail curling around it. If he can latch onto the animal's leg, he'll be able to sink his teeth into it easily and it'll be Nightmare's victory.

Or so he thinks, but his plan gets derailed when the animal grabs him by his midsection, right where bone meets ecto, and it pulls hard enough to make Nightmare yelp and loosen his grip. The animal then shakes its head and sends Nightmare flying back in the middle of the garden, where he dizzily sees Ink freeze in his nyooming.

The rest is a little confused, but Ink's eyelights disappear as his usually happy smile is replaced with a sharp set of teeth ready to bite a path into the animal's flesh. One moment Ink is standing by Nightmare, the next he's already onto the animal, biting it all over its body and tearing its grey fur off until there are bloody tuffs scattered all around the garden.

Ink and the animal hiss and growl and howl at each other, the fight intense and relentless. They continue mauling each other until the animal lets out a wounded yelp and smacks Ink one last time before scurrying away.

Having been alerted by the commotion, Blue hurries to pick Ink up, grabs Nightmare on his way to the door and rushes the both of them to a vet. Nightmare doesn't have it in him to bite Blue for his boldness, he lets himself be put in their travel crate and checks on Ink while Blue frantically starts up the big moving box that Nightmare hates.

While on the way to the vet, Nightmare assesses Ink's condition: he's covered with scratches and bite marks, his ecto tail covered in his own magic. He doesn't appear to have any fatal-looking wound, but Nightmare can't be sure until Ink's tail is clean from all the magic, so the grumpy lamia takes on the task to lap at the other's wounds. He can see that Ink wants to do the same for him, but he's lucky to only have gotten a superficial scratch on his tail, so there is no need for Ink to be concerned about him. He can't do anything anyway, he's in too rough a shape and can barely stay awake as it is.

Thankfully the vet is close by, and it takes no time for them to be taken care of. Ink has to spend the night there, while Nightmare gets by with only a little bandage on his tail and Blue drives him back home, patting his skull on the way home and letting him know that Ink will be fine. When he comes home, Dream is horrified to learn what happened, and he cuddles with Nightmare all evening, the warmth of his chest helping ease the pain in Nightmare's tail.

Ink is back the next day, just as Blue said, and while he can't nyoom around yet, he's back to his chirpy and happy go lucky self. Nightmare keeps him company so he doesn't get bored, and finds that without all the running around, it's not so unpleasant to spend the day with the other.

Over the next few weeks, thanks to Blue's nursing and Nightmare's grooming, Ink's wounds heal nice and clean, until he's allowed to get the last bandage off with his next shed.

After that, Nightmare can be found relaxing with Ink within the safety of the lamiatio (which Dream explained is like a patio, but for lamias), playing or nyooming together when the weather is nice. They haven't been let into the garden ever since the attack, even under surveillance, but Nightmare doesn't miss it that much. He's content to hang out in the lamiatio, which still receives plenty of sunlight. And it's got towers to climb on and fake foliage to hide under. It's a great place to hang around at with Ink.

Lately Nightmare's been gathering materials from all around the house, to piece together a sort of bedding that he likes to bring Ink to. He's set it up at the top of the highest tower in the lamiatio, somewhere neither Blue nor Dream can really see from down there. Neither owner is particularly tall. Nightmare likes the privacy, and he likes having Ink cuddled up with him in the makeshift nest. They keep each other warm during the long winter months.

When spring finally comes around, Nightmare feels the need to keep close to Ink, so much so that it'd be hard to imagine he used to run away from him not even a year ago. Ink smells very nice, and Nightmare rubs himself against him in the hopes of getting the other to produce more of that delicious scent. Nightmare even starts to twitch his body next to Ink. He doesn't quite know why, but he knows that it's important. He needs to let Ink know that he's here, ready for… whatever lamias are supposed to do at the start of spring. Ink doesn't react, so Nightmare doubles down with his effort.

He brings Ink to the nest and wraps his tail around the other's rainbow magic. Nightmare smells the scent, and he twitches and twitches some more, and rubs himself against Ink, until his magic forms something new that he knows will help keep Ink close.

Right as he's about to press himself into Ink, Dream finds them on their tower, and the monster panics and separates the two. Nightmare is upset and hisses in his owner's hands, trying to get back to Ink, who doesn't seem too bothered by the interruption. Back to the vet Nightmare goes, and when he gets back home, he doesn't find himself attracted to Ink's scent as much as before. He feels no need to summon his magic again and is content to spend the rest of his days with Ink, and with Dream and Blue.

He never hisses at any of these three anymore.

[yellowstarwater]

Alright time to start my episode by episode analysis of part 2 of Inside Job. By now I’m sure that most people have seen the second half of season one. But if you still haven’t (for some reason) spoilers ahead.

First up P2 E1: How Reagan got her Groove Back

I do like how it starts (mostly because it confirms my own theory) but it does feel in character that Reagan would have gone on a drunken bender. Love or hate Rand Ridley he does establish early on what he wants out of running Cognito Inc (His ex-wife and daughter) it makes sense that he would not care about what the robes want from him and only work towards his own agenda. If we go by what Brett says in the beginning of the episode then three full months have passed since the end of part one. That means that for three FULL months Reagan has been on a drunken bender and not working at Cognito!

So then why is anyone surprised that the team doesn’t back her up when she goes on a rant about her takeover plan from her father?! By all accounts Reagan left her team to deal with Rand alone and in those three months the gang is able to see that while a lot of things around the office is messed up and while they do not like Rand nothing has changed for them in terms of their jobs! Not to mention that Reagan probably created that plan when she was drunk and was still drunk when she brought it up to them!

But most people aren’t really mad at the gang as a whole. No the take that I’ve seen even some of my Breagan shippers take is that BRETT was wrong for not backing Reagan up in that situation. That it ruined his character?! What?! How does it ruin his character when he had to watch his BEST FRIEND go on a dangerous drunken bender for THREE MONTHS and has to be the one to pick her up from god knows where she ended up during that time! Because you know that it was Brett looking for her every night! Did everyone also just forgot that Brett goes to therapy?! That maybe after Brett spent three months witnessing Reagan’s behavior he would have come to the conclusion that what she needed was therapy and not to take over Cognito right now! That moment was a peak Breagan friendship moment! Brett put aside his need to please his best friend’s supposed wants and wishes and instead prioritized what Reagan needed which was therapy! And yet people have the nerve to say that BRETT was wrong for not having Reagan’s back EXCUSE ME?! How is it not having your back when you basically say hey I’m really worried about you and I think you need time to sort things out!

But I get it Reagan looked betrayed so therefore Brett must have betrayed her right? NO Brett cares about Reagan enough so that he can prioritize her safety and wellbeing over her personal wants and wishes. And if that is not solid character development right out the gate for Brett? If that is not a solid Breagan friendship moment let alone a potential shipping moment?! Then I need to hop off this ship and delete all my Breagan fics because people we are not on the same page! All I’m saying is that there are THREE full months of context that we the audience didn’t see…but Brett did!!!!😤

Okay so now that that rant is over I do like that Reagan listen to Brett and went to Anonymous Anonymous. It shows that despite being upset with him on some level she can see that she needs help. And I do think group therapy would have really helped if she stuck with it. But instead she gets distracted.

Alright ReaganxRon shippers please do not take this part of my analysis as a personal attack on your ship. You have every right to ship Reagan and Ron if you choose to do so, and I can concede that this ship is cute and that some of my opinions on this ship could be influenced by me being a Breagan shipper. But this ship rises red flag after red flag and I’m going to talk about it. 

First off any progress that Reagan could have potentially made by going to therapy is ruined by Ron. Because what right does Ron have to basically say that Reagan shouldn’t be there complaining about what happened to her because she quote ‘has to wait a little bit longer for her dream job.’ I’m sorry but the F🤬. So right off the bat Ron insults her and her reason for being in therapy. And when Reagan rightfully fights back he basically says that having your memories deleted isn’t as hard as being the person who has to delete the memories?! Again the F🤬, I’m not saying that Ron’s job doesn’t take a toll on him because it did! But still, next Ron insults her intelligence which pushes her to go after her father again. This is just the first interaction though and I will get to the other red flags in this episode later on.

Okay so Rand using Reagan’s nano bots to win the competition is interesting because that would have to mean that Rand really trusts Reagan’s invention’s despite also still insulting them and her. AB pointing out that Reagan is doing a villain monologue but also showing up because he just wants to chat foreshadows a lot of changes that will take place for him in part two. The Bohemian Groove scenes are also really fun to watch plus we finally got to see the Atlanteans! Plus the entrances of every organization pretty much sums them up easily.

I love how supportive Andre and Brett are to Gigi, honestly if Breagan turns out to not be the slow burn ship of the show I wouldn’t be surprised if Andre and Gigi are. Seriously the interaction between these three are wholesome and it does show how far the gang is willing to go for each other. Oh and Myc and Glenn were at Bohemian Grove too and must have done something too I guess.

Okay now it’s time to talk about Reagan and Ron’s second interaction. So question everyone does anyone know what Ron’s motivations are for sabotaging his own company? Oh that’s right he doesn’t want to talk about it! Alright even I a Breagan shipper can admit that Reagan and Ron have some good moments I can even understand why they hooked up but I stand by my statement when I say they were never going to last. Ron admits in this episode that he was caught trying to drink an entire vat of mind-erasing liquid and that’s why he was sent to group therapy! 🚩🚩🚩Is anyone out there starting to make the connections? Because I was able to make that connection at 3:00am with only about two hours of sleep!

One of the things that I think we need to start considering is that just because two people are compatible doesn’t mean that their goals are. And this can affect their relationship, in Reagan’s and Ron’s case their romantic relationship. Yes Reagan wants revenge on her father, Ron is right about that but Reagan hasn’t given up on the world just yet. Ron has given up on the world and that’s going to be important seven episodes later. This relationship is basically a distraction for both of them until they can fulfill the plans they want to fulfill. And while I do think it is good that Reagan decided to stop trying to fight her dad and put her happiness first. I do think this also means that in that moment she decides to stop trying to come to grips with her what happened to her which is dangerous. Think about it after this episode it’s not mentioned again even though there are still a lot of things that Reagan still needs to unpack and work on .Yes moving forward is important but how you go about it is important as well. Also the two of them not noticing that the wooden owl that they are hiding in was on fire because they were too busy hooking up?😔🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

But their hook up causing Rand and his rival is funny as hell though! Oh yeah Glenn and Myc become clowns…for two minutes! And JR is still alive.
