I'm fairly new to undertale (I only got into it with DR) but as soon as I finished it I knew it was gonna be one of my SpIns and searched for art. I found your blog around then and, though it had been dead for over a year, I followed anyway. I still occasionally come back to it and reread, so I wanted to say even if you don't think it was your best, it made at least 3 people happy, (me, the anon, and younger you), so even though it'll probably never continue that's worth honoring. So, thanks.
i’m really glad !! the blog was very dear to me and some friends a while back and it’s always nice to see people still enjoying it even after cutting it off, thank you so much for the kind words !!
it makes me sad that this has been over for so long
i cannot begin to explain the whiplash i felt seeing this ask pop in my inbox omg
(i ended this comic while i was in highschool, and i’m well into college now and also lost a lot of my old soul, yknow, as college goes. wow. i’m looking at my last post here that says “i just got into college” and laughign)
i’m sorry i dropped it back then, and i’m sorry i definitely won’t be able to pick it back up, but it’s been a while since i’ve said it-
thank you guys for the support, then and maybe even now, it wasn’t my best work but you did make slightly younger me very happy and i was happy to do it at the time
and to whoever’s still here, i hope you’re doing well, i hope you’re still keeping your head up high and pushing through and learning to love and accept yourself even through all the bullshit in life, learning to open up to people who want to help you, choosing to keep trying instead of ending the game
that’s mostly what i wanted to do when i mapped out asriel’s story,all those years ago, i think. it was something we were both working on, and i’m wishing the best for all of you, as well
it might be oversaid now, but i still hold undertale very close to my heart, so-
I wish I had said this earlier... but what is your next blog? I'm kinda stupid at tumblr and stuff, so I don't know how to see the rest of your amazing work. The truth is, I had just tore through the entire blog in an hour. I hope this isn't too demanding, but I want to see the rest of your amazingness. (Less meaningful question that probs won't be answered : Why does Asriel like Beyoncé?)
[ hello, i’m glad you enjoyed my content even a year after i’ve stopped using this blog! it was pretty fun while my interest lasted but sadly it died out pretty quick ;;
the rest of my stuff is on my main blog @soupery , currently i’m not running any comics/askblogs because i’m in college (gasp) but i recently got into ace attorney and i might do something for that once i finish all the games :0!
all that aside, i think i’m done with undertale for now, maybe forever
Hi uh can we draw the remaining arcs ourselves since you won't?
[ well i had rly specific scenarios and dialogue planned out but ah that doesn’t matter
if you asked me a while back i probably wouldn’t say yes for selfish reasons, mostly that i wanna have control over the story i wrote but since i’m never actually gonna write it down anyway uh
go right ahead! just credit and link back to me. <3 ]
[ anyway, i said i’d type out the story eventually, and eventually apparently meant after dinner so, here we go
and if you haven’t seen the goodbye post yet, you probably should first
most because i love closure. i’m not v good at writing though so ? i’ll just narrate this, part by part
Neo Asriel -
the whole “coming to be” arc. i’m not sure if it was clear enough, but tl;dr frisk’s taken hundreds of resets to get where they were, and asriel thought putting everyone through the suffering over and over just to save him wasn’t worth it, he wasn’t worth it, and even refused tiny bits of asgore and toriel’s souls that could’ve kept him alive. once chara talked him into it though, he took it, and alphys was able to keep his form from completely dusting out. with sciency amalgamate related shenanigans.
tl;dr, asriel accepting that he has to live arc. the everyone arc.
School Fight -
basically an arc showing off that this isn’t a happy au and that if asriel slips up he could lose the feeling of love and get frustrated about it. explains that asriel’s soul is incomplete, but he has to gain more of it naturally from aging, taking bits n bits from his parents ‘til they die. apparently not foolproof.
tl;dr the “chara and frisk” arc, but not really.
Night Terrors -
closure for asgore and toriel. left it open to whether you guys want to see it come out as romantic or platonic. either way, they’ll try to hold it together for their.....kid *finger guns*
and bonus asgore closure bc protect this dAD (and also chara!!)
tl;dr, asriel coming into terms with his mistakes arc.
Game Show -
originally meant to turn out as a funny, plotless arc. didn’t turn out that way. it did for the first few updates, beyonce be blessed.
next update was going to be me finally purging this very very cluttered inbox to get all the “i love you asriel!” arcs, the “big surprise” being mettaton, frisk (and chara) setting up a surprise to show him that nobody (well, mostly nobody) really hates him.
tl;dr asriel coming into terms with who he hurt arc. the mettaton/napstablook arc.
Magic Training -
was gonna be lots of bonding with undyne and alphys. asriel can’t use his rainbow magic too well, and with his weak soul made from tiny bits of asgore and toriel’s -- ends up in undyne training montage getting too intense and asriel shooting flowey bullets instead of stars and rainbows. is upset, but you can’t be upset with undyne and alphys for too long. manages to balance both flowey and asriel magic.
tl;dr asriel coming into terms with being flowey. the undyne and alphys arc.
Friend Date -
asriel was gonna get milkshakes with papyrus and sans, or something. originally was gonna be sans confronting asriel angrily, rewritten several times so that asriel would just be paranoid about sans remembering all the timelines where he killed everyone, but sans being cool about it. they have a happy ketchup filled talk about it, and papyrus is there to cheer em on.
tl;dr asriel coming into terms with the resets. the sans and papyrus arc.
Secret Arc (not so secret anymore lmao) -
asriel’s been getting too many frustrated moments as flowey. i didn’t plan out how this was gonna happen, it was originally set for christmas as a christmas arc but that didn’t happen. assuming it did happen on christmas, everyone was gathered together at the house, but asriel was stuck in a soulless moment and couldn’t take being with everyone and everyone pretending that nothing was wrong. a big blow up happens, and asriel abandons his soul in his room and sneaks off back to mt ebott to find the reset button. as he goes there soulless though, there isn’t anything to keep his artificial body together, and he starts deteriorating back into flowey.
chara catches him there, not being able to reach the reset button, not having enough determination to do so anyway. a FIGHT ensues, mostly with chara possessing frisk’s body and *TALKing to him.
they explain that they’ve all messed up, but it doesn’t matter because they should look to the future instead of being caught up in the past. they explain that frisk’s hundred resets weren’t always pacifist, that frisk was actually running on soulless pacifist to try and get asriel back. that frisk went through genocide, and the only reason that they’re back is that chara agreed to let frisk try one last reset to get their brother back. and since it didn’t work out, chara took frisk’s body back and gave asriel the choice to delete the world or not.
of course it didn’t happen, after all these arcs and bonding with the other characters, asriel doesn’t give it up. back to the happy christmas party, alphys constructing a completely new body, mushy mushy, you guys can fill in what happened next.
also gaster was in there somewhere. but i’ll keep some mysteries to myself.
tl;dr the actual chara and frisk arc, and a grand recollection of the entire blog and all the arcs.
so..... . .. yeah, just imagine these as comics, i guess. it would’ve taken too long to actually do em, see. sorry again, and thank you all for your support! this is the final goodbye, hehe. ]
[ hey! so if by any chance you’re still following this blog, um, this post is probably something you should check out.
it’s really important. which is why i’m posting it when everybody’s asleep, i guess.
so um. this is really embarrassing for me to say, mostly because it’s the post that everyone’s probably feared.
and because i have to admit that i can’t live up to my own promises. or at least, not this one in particular.
after days, weeks, months, i don’t know-- after a long while of staring at blank canvases looking for at least an ounce of motivation, only to find the willpower at 2 in the morning on lucky nights and producing updates that take me HOURS instead of 10 minutes like they used to (because i couldn’t concentrate on them enough to work properly)-- i think it’s finally time to call it quits.
imagine a huge pile of homework given to you. it’s not even graded, it’s just work you have to do for no reason. you’re not given a deadline, you don’t even wanna do it. you can, but you don’t want to. maybe there was a time when you thought doing it would be fun, but you might’ve underestimated it. sorry, i’ll think of a better metaphor later maybe.
but yeah. it’s been dragging, and i decided i should call it off while i’m in the middle of this joke arc instead of the last three i planned-- which were going to be incredibly serious and i can’t imagine leaving you guys on cliffhangers like those.
you can imagine that this blog ended happy, if you want. it was going to in the end. but i can’t bring myself to continue it anymore, i’m sorry. i really am.
i do still have the whole story planned-- it’d be at least 40 more panel-filled updates if i continue-- so maybe i’ll write it down sometime, just for closure. not now, though. this post is long enough as it is. feel free to ask later.
thank you guys for your support! i’m really sorry, especially to the ones who thought i’d be able to get through with this ‘til the end. my brain isn’t having it.
i recommend checking out my favorite au blogs if you still want your fill on this-- @dreemurr-reborn, @just-face-planted, @soulless-pacifist, @underlineau, @ask-thehuman, @half-hearted-dreamers, and countless others that my faulty memory isn’t really helping me bring up right now.
and who knows? maybe toby fox will be kind to the son. one day.
will i come back? mm, sorry, no. from my past experiences with sideblogs, i never have. i knew i’d run out of energy for this one eventually-- i just didn’t think it’d hold up for this long or get as big as it did. i thought it’d just be a cute little askblog, i guess we all did. haha.
as always, i’ll still be around, drawing cartoons and comics and generally heckin’ around, over at @soupery. maybe not always for undertale, okay barely for undertale, but if you need me for anything, you know where to go.
i’ll miss this blog, i’ll miss the children, and i’ll miss you guys. but sometimes good things have to end.
so for now, thank you all again, i’m very sorry, and here’s one last
