in late 2015 undertale fucking bit me and i’ve been infected ever since. i rlly like papyrus and also all AUs that ever existed
call me bones. my pronouns are in your heart and soul
Do not repost my art. If you see my art anywhere outside of tumblr*, I'd strongly appreciate if you request its removal, or tell me so I can do so myself if needed. I only post my art to this website.
* Using it for profile pictures is fine, as long as you ASK FOR PERMISSION beforehand and credit me in your bio / pinned post.
Proshippers & folks who align with them, please leave me alone. Y'all have not been kind in the past and I don't tolerate it anymore. Blocking w/ sideblogs is a pain that staff won't fix, so all I ask is to please stay out of my space just as I stay out of yours. Thank you.
other blogs, commonly used tags, & other semi-relevant links under the cut. so click read more if you wanna make the post reeaallly looonggg
@spingtail
👆my main blog, basically just reblogs but might have an original post once in a blue moon
i mostly use tags for yapping & nothing else, which is to say i don’t tag triggers or spoilers over there at all, so maybe use caution if that’s something u care about
💥bonetrousledbones
👆literally just a link to this blog’s desktop theme bc i like it a lot & not enough people are ever gonna see it
but i paid $10 for it so You're Gonna See It
💥also if you scroll down the sidebar & click the "navigation" tab you can read everything in this post w/ significantly better formatting 😳
💥💥it's also 100% compatible w/ the mobile browser & has a functional dark/light mode. By The Way.
@ask-the-bone-boys
👆my ask blog, which i’ve had since 2018 & what the AUs i talk about are usually for (tho i dont talk abt them as much anymore bc ppl have gotten SO annoying abt AUs 💔)
whenever i talk about "atbb," this is what that is!!!!!!
imagine if papyrus had everything going wrong literally all the time. now multiply it by 4 and that’s basically what’s going on here
also here's a big infodump about it lol
the time of ask blogs has passed so the blog itself isn’t active anymore BUT i AM rewriting it into a fanfic series👇
[series on ao3 so far.] it's mostly oneshots but there are some multi-chapters too here & there
also feel so so extremely free to ask me about it at literally any time. i love talking abt it a lottttttt <333
final thing: i really like angst & you Will be able to tell. i try to tag any triggers i can think of & don’t mind adding more if asked, but this is just a big general warning. lotta fucked up stuff happens lol
@mothbbones
👆blog for non-undertale art. relatively inactive bc undertale is all i draw BUT it has some of my ocs & sonic fanart on it
18+ secret blog 😳
if you're interested in this one, send me an ask OFF ANON so i can confirm you're an adult, and i'll give you the url!
mostly just for being really cringe & rambling a lot about my fic. 18+ headcanons, selfcest, & art sometimes. occasionally spammy & overall way more disorganized than this blog lol
common tags (excluding fandom/AU tags):
#trousled rambles <- basic text posts
#trousled arts <- all of my art (excluding wips bc i dont tag those </3)
#trousled dumb <- jokes n shitposts. but also just vibes tbh lmao
#trousled reblogs <- reblogs, believe it or not
#awesome art that i adore <- fanart/gifts for meee ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
#skeletal speculations <- random ut theories & analysis
#atbb <- posts about my ask blog / fic
NOT listing each atbb character tag since this is already long enough, just look at the tags for this post here- it has all of em & the post itself (kinda) says who's who.
the main ones are Russ (undertale), Edge (underfell), Stretch (underswap), Fluff (swapfell papyrus), and Karma (swapfell sans)
assume every named skeleton is another papyrus unless stated otherwise lol
other places that i sometimes do stuff and things:
youtube (livestreams & speedpaints once in a blue moon)
bluesky (for whenever tumblr finally goes down the shitter)
twitter (occasional retweets & me being annoyed at the current fandom)
a lil bit ago i drew all the flowers as the ut humans and i gave green locs so now i keep having moments where i see other ppl draw them with straight hair and i have to do like a full mental reset
“And if you’ll give me 40% of the MOST POPULAR VOTE, I’ll give you my SPECIAL REWARD... A year’s supply of NON-GLOOBY SLIME!!! Never or BARELY used!!!” Tenna concluded his speech with a huge smile, jetting his hands up in double peace signs.
The crowd roared in confused enthusiasm as Tenna gave a gracious flurry of low-FPS bows, pausing only for the occasional stink-nose at his audience plants who weren’t throwing enough 3D roses.
Eventually, the room fell silent. It was Senshi’s turn to speak.
He puffed out his chest, took a long, sweeping look over the audience… and shook his head.
“I can see not all of you are eating properly.”
The crowd murmured with embarrassment.
“I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s time to take the turkey out of your icebox. I have seen the ingenious technology with which your people store food... and I have also seen the waste which results from such convenience.
“The food you take had a life. Beasts grew fat on the grass of the field, plants grew from the sun’s rays, and mushrooms grew from minerals in the cracks of caves. And yet, it sits in your iceboxes, collecting moisture until it perishes.
“Eat what is given to you. Because its life will make you stronger, too.”
Without another word, Senshi left his podium and stepped away from the stage. The crowd murmured in confusion. “Is he really like that?” somebody said. “I only remember reblogging the photosets of him tripping and showing ass.”

Back in the Green Room, Tenna wrung his antennas nervously.
“Y-y-you think they liked me!? They HAD to!! I mean, I don’t know what Asgore was thinking, getting that weird haircut and running that food waste campaign, but… YOU thought I did good, didn’t you, Kris?”
Laios nodded aggressively, a streak of blue face paint peeling from his forehead.
“You did AMAZING, Tenna! By the way, now that we’ve seen all your insider campaign secrets, do you have any more videos of Susie? Especially her tail... If I could get a look at that, I could finally tell if she’s a dinosaur or --”
THWACK. Fake antlers butted Laios’s head.
“LAIOS?? Weren’t we dressed up to help SENSHI???” Marcille hissed, gesturing awkwardly with her hooves.
Suddenly, Tenna turned to the two adventurers.
“Hey, WAIT a second. SOMETHING’s not right here...”
Laios and Marcille held their breath.
“Where the heck are my POINTS!?”
Just then, the door opened. Chilchuck took one step into the room, whistling and holding a large bag.
Everyone turned to him.
Chilchuck paused, took a step backwards, and closed the door.
“CHILCHUCK!!!” yelled Tenna.
“How come Chilchuck got to stay Chilchuck!?” yelled Marcille at the same time.

Meanwhile, in outer space somewhere, some guy was making out with a rock.
might be swinging at a hornet's nest here but does it slightly bother anyone else that toriel doesn't even hint at an apology for keeping kris up all night. like kris can outright tell her they slept awfully because she was being way too loud and she just goes "yeah it sucks you didnt join ]:(" girl come on
genuinely no hate to berdly fans but i feel like some of them forget that he is still deliberately written as an insufferable asshole. like yeah being socially inept is one thing but he constantly goes out of his way to insult others to build himself up. knowing why he does it doesn't mean he doesn't suck!!!!!
i think 2015 was the best year that undertale could have come out actually because first it had a frankly revolutionary amount of unambiguous queer representation and a tearjerking story about hope above all else to go with it and then it also had a knockoff trollface at one of the most climactic scenes in the game
ive never felt the need to outright nuke a post from my notifications before but i'm somehow STILL getting "well we don't know for certain that deltarune monsters turn to dust" on That Post and if i read that one more time i think im going to lose everything i hold dear
a funny thing i've been noticing with the newest round of weird route fanart is that ppl keep forgetting that monsters turn to dust when they die. like i'm loving the tragedy of it all but there are not going to be two bodies floating in that lake guys
of course the chapter that has significantly rejuvenated my interest in deltarune is the one that's basically a love letter to undertale btw. like yeah that is what would fucking get me isnt it
i've chilled out a lot over the years that i've had this blog but i think that's made newer followers unaware that i sometimes will just start screaming about stupid shit and it's literally normal. have y'all never decided to start yelling about shit and get more worked up than necessary? you should give it a shot some time it's actually pretty fun
