love, hope, compassion... that's what monster Souls are made out of. when a monster dies, from out the soil their dust scattered on, New Life takes shape in the form of Pretty Little White Plants.
they grow and grow, feeding off of the magic in the air. they thrive in the Underground Hell, where magic has been Trapped and is present in every inch of the limited space.
they show that, Despite Everything seeming so bleak, Hope can find ways to sprout even in the most unlikely of places.
:)
(but seriously, what was up with those white plants?? i cant find any official lore about them... oh well, guess i'll make up my own then.)
Frankensteining some old art for UF’s birthday!! The text is pretty janked but it’s whatever. I threw this together in like an hour but AGHHHH!! 7 years??? UF has been my top favorite for seven years already! Time flies, happy birthday Underfell!!
spike!! yippee!!! the final member of our reversed hero group.
spike looks and acts real tough but he can be a bit of a softie, especially towards his loved ones. those being his teammates but he doesn’t know that yet. he likes to tinker around with weapons and his cool skates! other hobbies he has are boxing, napping, and, unfortunately, gambling. he secretly gives away G to anybody he deems needs it most. he has a small interest in cars too and has a slight fear of clowns. spike will sometimes sit and listen to stitch ramble (if he has the patience for it) mostly because he pities the poor guy (or thats what he claims anyway). overall spike is a good man who will do whatever he can to support his team and get everything he can outta any mission.
he does indeed have a brother, and an au, but…hey, who cares about things like that anyways?
by the way, he’s a it of a prankster too, just be careful where you sit…
characters i compare him too and voice claim under the cut!
Will you guys believe it?? This is the last page of the Waterfall arc!!! I've come so far.... :') I hope you guys enjoyed it and keep reading what I have prepared for Hotland!!
Next week I will upload the cover art! Be excited for that!!!

May we get a bit more about UFY!Dalv? (Also ig in extension corn yaoi as collateral)
apologies for the Late Reply!! I've been brainstorming What To Say to this ask for days, since before this i didn't think about dalv/vlad all that much. so here's a hopefully Cohesive peek into his (and martlet's!!) character and backstory + some doodles!
(i have plans for a bigger piece that ill start Later On when i have the Time.)
i do want to bring vlad a more active role to the story in yellowfell compared to uty. but like the au itself, he and martlet are still a work in progress, so dont be too surprised if things change in the future.
one day, vlad met this strange, spunky teenager named martlet and now she Wont Leave Him Alone. she tells him she sticks around because she likes the fact he didn't try to attack her at first glance, to which she took as a cue to attach herself to him and now they're somehow on friendly??? terms? (the same thing that happened to chujin. its pretty effective, apparently.)
vlad would never admit he likes her company, if only because she wont stop bullying him about being a "lonely, sad adult who's only friend is a homeless kid," (she's right)
his response was, "if it wasn't for those stripes, you'd be fried dust," except, he didn't say that out loud because his social anxiety Wont Go Away even in the presence of a dumb teen
okay, now for the major plot divergences: kanako wasn't involved in the snowdin attack. rather, it's Vlad and martlet.
they do get hurt— vlad mostly, the scar never really healed— but luckily chujin was at the scene and chased the human away to waterfall with axis (and proceeded to Not kill them)
of course, chujin wouldn't want to get reported for hiding a living child away to poke needles at (politely), so for a while, Vlad and Martlet are made to believe they Did (indirectly, but still in some way,) caused the death of a child.
a human, but Still a child.
they try not to think too much about that, or how they could've died that day.
(it doesn't work that well)
(martlet is suspicious, but she wouldn't dare question chujin.)
then, it comes time that chujin needs a subject. he needs a monster's soul, from someone "pure" and "uncorrupted".
but no, Chujin couldn't ever touch Kanako or Ceroba. Not himself either, his family needs him; he can't be reckless, no matter how much he wants to Help Everyone. he hates hurting others, he truly does, but in this world, he Doesn't Have A Choice, does he?
he needs somebody Nobody Will Miss if they were to one day disappear.
so, he visits snowdin. he finds Vlad, already packing up to shamefully retreat into the ruins. He... "convinces" him Not To. he gives him the Opportunity to be a savior, to be greater, to be somebody other than himself. All he has to do is to come with him instead. start a New Life, somewhere far away from snowdin and those ruins.
offer up his soul because then, and only then, will his Sins be Forgiven.
possible amalgamation form?
vlad agrees, because it's easier to believe someone else's words about you serving a Greater Purpose rather than accept that you are nothing. so, he moves into a little town far east and meets someone very, very special :)
