I now want to believe that Asgore just runs around your AUverse making yard art everywhere he can. Occasionally he’ll try to make a Toriel topiary. She finds it and burns it. …this has nothing to do with your story, and I’m deeply sorry.
You gotta ask first, Asgore, or it’s weird. But, yeah, he keeps himself busy doing sometimes unasked for work on the gardens of friends and at local business.
I bet if Undyne ever lived someplace with a yard, he’d fill it up with beautiful yard sculptures of her children and eventual grandchildren. Normally she’s just like “oh well” but she actually feels sorta bad when she burns those all down when she’s trying to barbecue.

Thank you! I guess it is a little sad, too (as you said in your tags). When I was writing it, I was thinking it was pretty hopeful, overall, but I did have Sans think a bit about how hadn’t thought he had much time left, which is, uh, kind of a downer, haha.
I adore this, all of this, wholeheartedly!

Aaaa this is wonderful. Thank you! :D And I’m glad I could come up with a prompt you liked~
This is a trope or whatever that I completely adore, but that I really rarely actually write. So thank you for giving me the excuse!
#I like all the small details letting us know about how other characters are doing#Papyrus got himself some hair :D the annoying dog is still hanging around#the whole bit with the salad was surprisingly sweet#and I like Papyrus' defeated 'fine'. gotta pick your battles heh#I really like Sans' thoughts at the end too. his 'rude' made me snort because I say the same thing the same way xD#but his switch to appreciation was nice to see. hanging in there and even enjoying himself well enough!#the person who came up with the home name had a stroke of genius there too wow
Papyrus heard that people who don’t have much hair look older, so he does the only logical thing when he starts to worry about that.
How many times do you think Sans has made jokes about the annoying dog getting in Papyrus’ hair?
