Have the other skeletons noticed Graphites distaste for the sweater he's wearing? Wait. Better question, what's all of the skeletons thoughts about the brothers now that they've been there a few days

Oh yes, some of the others have for sure have at least begun to notice Graphite's distaste for the sweater. He isn't subtle about hiding his emotions. It doesn't help that anytime any of the other skeletons says the word yellow to him, he begins to twitch.

As for what the other skeletons think of the brothers, I'll answer that below the cut

(also I normally draw stuff for asks and didn't for this one, so I made you an angry baby chalk instead, enjoy)

response continued below...

I'll start with what they all think of Chalk since out of the brothers, he is the one who the rest of the household have actually interacted more with.

CHALK

to preface, Chalk is the youngest skeleton of the household and it shows, especially because of how sheltered he has been all his life. Out of all the skeleton's Classic is the most influenced by this. He sees Chalk a lot like Papyrus (Cap), if Papyrus never had the amount of encouragement to have the confidence he now has. The different skeletons don't really act brotherly to any of their alternates, but in Chalk's case, Classic tends to slip into the brotherly protectiveness

Cap also has a lot of sympathy for Chalk. He is much more proactive, though, trying to find things that Chalk may take an interest in. They aren't the same though, and one of the ways Cap has begun to find that out is in Chalk's passive-aggressive sarcasm. Cap also definitely sees similarities with feeling over-protected by their older brother and relates with him on that level

Blue has a similar perspective to Cap, however he's less forthright. From his experience raising Stretch, he tries to give Chalk space, leaving options for him to choose at leisure rather than inviting him into them. He views Chalk as very repressed, particularly thinks he may have a lot of repressed rage... Because of that, he's actually more worried about Chalk potentially doing something dangerous, more than Graphite.

Stretch sees him as antsy and anxious and overly attached. Since he doesn't really work, he was one the first skeletons to spend more time with Chalk while Graphite was holed up. During that instance, Stretch told Chalk to think about himself first and maybe try being apart from Graphite for awhile.

Red was the first to try and get medical attention for Chalk when he and Graphite first arrived. But considering Red hit his brother with a pipe wrench, Chalk has been polite but very curt with Red. Red thinks Chalk is very uptight and easy to make tease and ragebait, which he enjoys.

Edge mostly indifferent. He finds Chalk rather weak willed. Edge doesn't like pushovers, and currently given what Edge knows about Chalk and Graphite, he very much sees Chalk as a pushover. It's not that he views Chalk as soft, but he does think he needs to toughen up

Black and Jupiter both view Chalk as a very secretive individual, in that they view him as sneaky. For Black, this is more so on the end of seeing Chalk as someone who tends to lie by omission rather than outright. If you want information, you have to be direct and thorough, approach

As for Jupiter, sneaky more so describes Chalk being clever. He notices the "code switching", which is sort of like when someone adjusts their personality for different situations and people. Beneath that, Jupiter enjoys Chalk's company. He sees Chalk as calm but very engaged and energetic, which is refreshing for Jupiter who likes being active but at a quieter level.

Rus doesn't really trust Chalk. He is fine with him and they get along with one another as much as Rus really gets along with anyone, but he thinks Chalk is narrow sighted. He also reads him as a deeply lonely individual.

Mars thinks of Chalk as a rebellious teenager, that's it. No need to be fancy about it.

GRAPHITE

Classic knows that Graphite is wary of him and is wary right back all the same. See's him as a deeply mistrusting individual and its hard to trust someone who trusts no one. And given that Classic already has trust issues, it's a whole mess of "let's keep an eye on this landmine". Doesn't help that Graphite pointed a gun at him, either.

Cap who sees the best in people, sees Graphite as scared. And he thinks that is a good thing, because that means Graphite cares! He'd never say it aloud, but Graphite is in the same category in his mind as a cornered dog. Feels bad that Graphite seems to have no friends.

Blue doesn't know who Graphite is. Well, he knows "who" Graphite is, but in terms of identity? He finds Graphite to be very empty. When he tries to think of Graphite's personality, of all the word and statements Blue can make, to him, Graphite is someone defined by negatives/absence. Pities him, in that way. To Blue, whereas Chalk was someone forced to grow in a box, he views Graphite as someone forced to fit himself into one

Stretch. Trigger happy and abrasive. He thinks Graphite is a bit of a hypocrite—praises order and claims to live by procedure, but acts far too much based on instinct.

Red is never going to let Graphite live down the pipe wrench incident. He is deeply unsettled on why Graphite keeps that graft attached to himself when there are surely other alternatives. At the same time, he sees Graphite a bit like a coward as well. Someone who hides his EXP and LV behind excuses like "necessary".

Edge has some mild respect for Graphite. He recognizes the posture of title and status. However, he finds Graphite dull in that he doesn't seem to have personal investment in his own title. Thinks he has no passion or drive.

Oh boy, I mean after chapter four, there's a lot that Black thinks. I won't get into it all here, but whereas Graphite sees Black as similar to himself, Black sees Graphite as very different actually. Sure their worlds were similar and the paths they took as well, but the reasoning behind it and how they feel about it? Very different. He's curious about Graphite, for sure. Doesn't think he is a threat at all, even to humans.

Rus thinks Graphite kind of sucks at drawing

Jupiter very much thinks of Graphite as an overprotective older brother to Chalk, especially with some of the things Chalk has said about him. Also that he is surprisingly rude, having assumed Graphite would be much more formal and proper

Mars. Graphite who? You mean lemon. Sour and yellow. But beneath the tough and bitter rind, there is something soft and bright beneath. And no one really hates lemons. After all, people like lemonade, don't they? That about sums it up.

Diff anon from before, but I wanted to share some fanart I made of Graphite! I like the jacket you drew. Will he get that later in the story?

https://imgur.com/a/8n2nQRK

Feel free to repost the image from link btw, since I don’t think I can attach it

^^wonderful art submitted by the anon^^ original link here

WOW!! Thank you... I cannot thank you enough. I love how sinister you made him look! This is incredible, holy shit. And the lighting! And also yes, he does get that jacket and quite soon too. But if anyone wants to think of him wearing other clothes or draw him in different outfits, they are more than free to.

Funny thing, I'm just about to post a new chapter right now. Would it be okay if I linked your wonderful work?

[provornyi]

HEYYYA!! Just wanted to let ya know that I've read about Chalk and Graphite, I'm loving the fanfic very much!! Keep up the good work!!

Although I'd like to ask, what would they're reaction be if they met a baby ones version of themselves?? Well, not just Chalk or Graphite, I'd love to know the reaction of the other AU brothers

well for any baby version, I think it would probably go something like this

[provornyi]

Yes, the diseased family tree! I was crackling like a mad man the whole time

The snas pipeline is gonna get you one day, pencil boy. One day...

Hope this can make you feel better. Thank you for all the wonderful chapters!╰(*´︶`*)╯

Hope you can get better soon!

OH MY GOSH!! Seeing this totally made my day hahah! The pipeline after the family tree made me laugh aloud. I love how you drew all of them, it’s so cute.

The pipeline will get pencil boy yet… when he least expects.

Thank you for the lovely art and kind wishes!

[provornyi]

Everytime pencil boy crack a pun or says something sarcastic, it never fails to make me smile.

It's just too funny cause it always happens when I didn't expect.

And I love that you use different colors for names in asks, is there a meaning behind the colors? Or is it just random?

OH MY GOSH YOU DREW HIM SO CUTE!! Your art looks so amazing!! Hehehe thank you so much! Top ten pencil boy pun moment right there. His little joke moments are always so much fun to write, so I got a big grin seeing you drew that scene. As always, I must ask bc this is beautiful and made me cackle, may I link?

For the color coding, I like to use the colors to distinguish the different AUs when the ask relates to all of them. Most of them are process of elimination since there’s limited colors on tumblr for text and I didn’t wanna do repeats. Individually, when it’s just Chalk and Graphite though, I use blue for Chalk since I associate his magic being bluish silver in color. And since there’s no yellow to torture Graphite with, I use purple for him.

Thank you again for the wonderful art!!! And for the lovely ask.
