I tend to stick to canonical backgrounds or later divergences with most of my fanfic reading/writing, but a good AU can drag me in. Which AUs do you almost always click on when you see it in your fandom(s)? Or what sort of AUs do you always want to write?
i was big into disbelief for the longest time, but i only cared about most others for the music. the idea of papyrus, who is constantly alluded to be very strong, being the person you fight instead of sans is just genius. they have an actual good excuse to make him absurdly powerful, as well a good opportunity to expand upon his character.
I love Undertale for itself, but I might love it more for how much it inspired people. Written fic, comics, music, AUs of all sorts? Any time a media does this, whether or not I enjoy the original or what the fans make, I think it is good.
Papyrus is the best too. He’s so powerful he won’t even accidentally kill you, unlike poor Toriel.
