Bitty Type and AU: Aftertale Sans (https://loverofpiggies.tumblr.com/)
Level: 2-3 out of 5 (Moderate to Medium due to care and levels of trauma. Some Genos are harder then others)
Appearance: Genos’ right (our left) eye socket is destabilized and melty, and they have an open wound on their chest. The exact shapes and sizes of this wound varies (sometimes extending to other areas), but the location stays the same. However their eye is covered in what we call pixels, and the pixels also float around their bodies a bit, especially when upset. Their bones are a stark, pure white.
Heights Ranges: Genos tend to be a bit shorter on average then normal Sans type bitties, standing above the average at 4.5-5, an inch shorter then the normal Sans type average. This doesn’t mean they’re all shorter, just their more likely to be smaller then the average Sans types.
Heats: After becoming Genos, their heat drops significantly. In fact, they don’t really have heats, but will go into one once a year if around bitties who do have their heat. Their heats also aren’t particularly strong or alluring to other bitties, which means they are safe to be around other bitties in their heats. However it hits them rather strongly, and they will be hot and bothered for about 3-4 days. They have a hard time conceiving children, but if it sticks they are extremely likely for the baby to survive! Be warned, however, if they are the one carrying the baby, it puts a massive drain on their bodies, souls, and health, and can be fatal for the Genos in worse case scenarios. Their babies will not be Genos, they will be whatever the other parents is, or whatever is in the Geno’s genes.
Likes-
* Soft things. Blankets, pillows, stuffies, clothes.
* Being loved and spoiled, and cuddles
*Collecting things
*Exploring spaces and places
*Stim toys for comfort! Fidget stuff, sneaky, clicking pens, they love them!
*Finding new things they like or love
*Being around kind and loving people.
*Documentaries, I have no clue why, but they like them.
*helping with crafts and cooking (they are not very good at them and you must be really careful when you allow them to help) but they enjoy trying.
Dislikes-
*Loud sounds
*Physical contact with people their not comfortable with
*Being yelled at, they will dissolve into tears and a panic attack. Do not yell at them. If they have done something wrong, try and maintain your calm and explain clearly what they did wrong. They will probably cry anyways but it won’t be as bad
Diet-
*Because of their low health and fragile compositions, their diet consists of normal monster food and special monster candy full of supplements, vitamins, and extra healing magic that’s called Pixel Pops. It’s recommended that they eat one with every meal (before, during, or after doesn’t matter) and/or in emergencies (such as if they get damaged, or really sick). More won’t harm them, but they won’t work if more then one are taken too close together
*Bland food is best to start off with a Geno, then slowly work your way up to more flavorful stuff (for newer genos)
* They like the occasional sugar or chocolate treat, but only in super small doses, as they can be overwhelming.
*Depending on their art and/or genes, they may like one of the condiments as a snack occasionally, but they won’t remember which one.
*Also they can’t handle seafood.
Personality stuff-
*Genos are not born but rather made by circumstances i’m not willing to disclose.
*Genos are very timid and cautious bitties at first.
*At first, Genos will be nervous of a new situation/home. They may hide from you, refuse to come out, or even have panic attacks if you get close. Just be patient and give them space, they will come around as long as your are kind and give them time.
*Genos, especially in the beginning of being Genos, will be depressed, nervous, prone to serious anxiety, and will most likely have abandonment issues, and will be clingy (once they get attached to you). But with love and care, they will get better and heal.
*We don’t allow Genos to be adopted within to be adopted within a month of being Geno’s, so they may stabilize and adapt to their new lifestyles.
*They form little nests in any available space out of soft blankets and pillows (especially at first) to feel safer. Let them, it is extremely important they feel safe in a new space. They may eventually try and co sleep with you, which is great! But only do it if you’re sure you won’t accidentally hurt them in your sleep, as they are fragile.
*They also collect small things that make them happy (like plushies, bits and bobs they collect, paper, ect)
*Once they get past the fear stage and start healing, they’ll come out of their shell and become more confident and curious. They tend to adapt their personality on those around them, and even on stuff from before becoming Genos! They usually tend to be quite sassy and enjoy word play, and will start to be more confident in decisions and their opinion. Encourage this, it’s really good.
Abilities-
*Can summon pixelated bones and gaster blasters for attacks. They are pretty average in attack and magic, but have really bad stamina
*They can teleport but it’s really hard on them and wears them out.
*Their magic is a bleached, blue-ish white. It tends to have pixel glitches mixed in too.
Compatibility-
*Grims are a great companion for Genos bitties. They won’t treat the Genos with kiddy gloves, but they also know boundaries and how to back off or avoid a subject. Any other bitties with similar personalities are also a good match!
*Do not put with dangerous bitties/bitties prone to attacking or dusting weak bitties. Rough bities are okay if you make sure they understand how fragile Genos are. So are other types of bitties, but harsh or cold bitties can and will make Genos cry pretty easy, especially in the beginning.
*They do fine with most types of bitties too, but they tend to get really emotional around any sort of Papyrus (some types more then others, usually depends on the Geno). It’s like they can almost feel the instinctual loss. However some have no reaction at all, which is rarer but it happens.
Health-
*Genos are almost always blind in their right eye, so be prepared to have to help them adjust to their lack of depth perception.
*They have quite a few health problems due to the chest wound and melted eye, and glitches.
*Neither the eye or chest wound will be sticky or runny, but may look like it. They just feel like stagnant warped bone.
*If you gain their trust and treat them with love, the glitches will gradually go away. The melted eye and chest wound, however, will never heal unfortunately. *Be warned they are prone to bleeding, but it is not damaging to their hp (which is always unfortunately low), it just makes them sore and tired. They are also extremely prone to sickness so be careful! Especially in winter and colder weather.
*Since the affected areas are sensitive and destabilized, it can lead to light cracking or chafing. Don’t let them itch these areas, as it can make it worse or it could spread (They will itch them when they feel anxiety-ish)
Other stuff-
*Not only do all Genos look almost exactly the same (barring the slight differentiation in eye and chest wounds), regardless of their past and/or genes, but they will not remember how they where before. It’s like having a completely new bitty. But they will tend to gravitate towards the same likes of food or subjects. Also past traumas will more then likely follow them, but they’ll have no clue why. They will usually, however, remember their bonds with owners/family/strong relationships with bitties from before, but it will be foggy and distorted.
*Dress them in Soft, Loose Materials only. Harsh, tight, or itchy clothing will irritate their bones and make their wounds agitated.
*If they have a mate or bonded from before, be prepared to deal with a confused Geno and hurt mate/bonded. It’s always really hard on both parties because not only is the Geno different, but the bond/their soul is too. And the Geno still feels things for them, but it’s muted and confused and pushed under all the other stuff surfacing. A lot of times, the mate/bonded will treat it like the Geno has died and will leave or mourn accordingly. However some will push through and try to keep things going, as they recognize the Geno is still who they where before, just…different.
