Once of my krossmare posts got some attention today, for some reason, got me thinking of them again, so here’s some quick doodles based off text convos I found on Pinterest
Love the gradual decline of my drawings XD. tried to keep up the same vibe tho
Drew with a stylus for the fist time in a while, and holy shit I missed it. wasn’t even a good one, but it fuckin worked
Drawings w.out the text
Texts used (in case they’re hard to read or if anyone wants them)
Woooo I'm back- kinda? Drew some moments from the rp with my bbg @asotiaa (again)
Explanation under the cut:
Context to this whole thing bc why not (A LOT OF WORDS INCOMING I'M SORRY-): Nightmare and Killer are dating and Cross is jealous since he's in love with Nightmare. Nightmare is aware of Cross' feelings but doesn't acknowledge them and shows his affection only to Killer. Killer is constantly teasing Cross (playfully but it tends to get out of hand because of Cross' short temper) and actually is in love with him too (though he's not aware of these feelings yet).
So in the last two pages Cross, Horror and Killer are cooking a pie and Killer accidentally triggers Cross causing him to blow up at Killer. Nightmare is in time to stop them and breaks Cross' arm as a result (to free Horror from his control), Cross is devastated since he wants any kind of praise or acknowledgment from Nightmare (thanks for the trauma, XGaster-) and it hurts because he completely ignored him in the end.
After they calm down Nightmare tells Killer their punishment. He's now supposed to take care of Cross until the end of the month, Cross can't leave his room and Killer can't leave the house. Both Cross and Killer don't think that's a good idea but there's nothing they can do about it. Forced bonding time!!
Anndddd Cross also likes Dream and at some point, Dream kisses Killer to shut him up without knowing that Killer is dating his brother so it's fun (Killercreammare will happen after all of this is sorted out. And Dream and Nm are platonic in this yup)
I was planning to write a few sentences but, uh… got carried away. That's all!
Killer belongs to rahafwabas
Cross belongs to jakei
Nightmare belongs to jokublog
Horror belongs to Sour-Apple-Studios
Because Nightmare says so and so they have to talk about it.
Ugh.
Cross sits in a chair in the office.
He would much rather be downstairs with the bitties. The two little guys had seemed stressed and more quiet than usual and Cross wanted to fix that.
He isn’t sure what is wrong but he can probably help right?
Nightmare just sits at his office studying them both and Cross glances to the side. Killer is leaning far back in his chair and just staring up at the ceiling.
Nightmare clears his throat before speaking “It seems time we… discussed something we have been ignoring.”
Cross feels himself shrink further into the chair as he crosses his arms. Cross just knows Nightmare is looking between him and Killer.
Silence between all three of them for quite some time.
Killer groans “Fine! Okay! I admit it! I have the wooooorst crush on you both! There!”
Cross blinks and looks over with a snap and Killer is still glaring up at the ceiling. Cross is unsure what to say for a moment.
Killer must take this as a sign to continue so he continues “It is fine! Okay! I have had this crush for ages! And it is fine! I know it isn’t going to change anything!” Killer glares down at the ground as he crosses his arms, hiding his soul in the process.
Nightmare frowns “Killer…”
Killer flinches and looks to the side “… Are we done? I will stop the… whatever. I will stop…”
Cross holds up a hand “It is fine!”
Killer shrugs “No need to feel sorry Crossy. I am fine.”
Cross glares “It isn’t like that you idiot. I feel the same!” he feels embarrassed as soon as he says it but forces himself to continue “I have liked you both as well. For a long time now. It is why… It annoys me when you imply I would like someone else because I love you two so damn much…” he rubs his arm “It felt like… I dunno… that you knew and were trying to get me to see others or something…”
Cross looks up to see Killer stare at him in awe and Cross feels himself grin a tiny bit. Then he looks at Nightmare “Mare?”
Nightmare blinks at them “Yes?”
Cross frowns as he rubs his arm “So... how do you feel about… what we feel about you?” oh stars he sounds cringe.
Nightmare blinks and seems to think over his words “I am… flattered… very flattered.”
Cross frowns “You don’t feel the same?”
Nightmare frowns “That isn’t what I am saying. I feel flattered and care for you both a great deal.”
Killer frowns “But?”
Nightmare sighs as he looks at them “While I think you two should speak about your feelings and what you feel for each other and explore this I think it is for the better if I am not included in this matter.”
Killer jumps up “Why not?!”
Cross holds himself close “You don’t love us?”
Nightmare looks slightly panicked “That isn’t what I am implying. It is just… better if we try not to include me in this situation-”
“Why not?!” Killer glares and Cross nods.
Nightmare sighs as he rubs his face “I am not mortal. I am not even an actual monster or skeleton. I am a tree spirit. A being made of energy and emotion. It is not fair to take a normal relationship from you or put you in an unequal relationship-”
“That is bullshit and you know it!” Killer glares hard.
Cross shoots him a look “Kills!”
Killer continues to glare at Nightmare “No! I don’t care that you aren’t technically a skeleton. We know that! We have always known that! And unequal relationship?! Like hell!”
Nightmare sighs “You work with me and follow my orders-”
Killer throws up his arms and hands “That is work stuff! That is different! When we aren’t on missions or dealing with the council it is just us and we are equals then!”
Cross nods “I agree with Kills… please Nightmare?”
Nightmare sighs as he rubs his face and looks to the side “I am… still uncertain about this but it seems you both have already decided about this matter.” He sighs.
Cross rubs his hands “But… but do you? Do you love us?” it is different if Nightmare doesn’t feel the same. That Cross could accept. Even if it would hurt a lot.
Nightmare stares at them for a moment before smiling “I don’t think it is possible for me to not love you two.”
Cross feels himself smile as he hugs Nightmare and Killer joins in quickly. Next thing he knows is that Killer is kissing him. The kiss ends rather quickly as Killer also very quickly plants a kiss on Nightmare before pulling back with a large grin.
Nightmare chuckles and easily carries them both with his tentacles “I suppose we can try our hand at this relationship business.”
Killer snorts “Not like much is going to change. All that happened is that I now have privileges and I can kiss either of you whenever I want.” And he grins widely.
Cross laughs as he kisses Killer himself before giving Nightmare a kiss.
Cross then lays his skull on Nightmare’s shoulder and just enjoys the close contact with his new datemates for a moment.
Cross hears Killer purr loudly as he is clearly doing the same as Nightmare just holds them both close.
They share a few more kisses before making their way downstairs, well Killer and Cross do as Nightmare still needs to do some work. Killer keeps holding his hand as they walk downstairs.
Killer hums “So what could we do? Play a game? Watch some tv? Have sex?”
Cross blushes and sputters “Kills!”
Killer grins “What? Can’t a guy try?”
Cross glares as his face still feels warm “We have been dating for, and I cannot stress this enough, five minutes.”
Killer stares at him and gives a slow nod “Too soon?”
Cross nods “Yes.”
Killer laughs and nods “Fair enough!”
They get to the living room and go straight to the bitty housing.
Only to see Axe looking sadly at the door.
Killer frowns “Axe? What is wrong?”
Axe looks up at them for a moment before ignoring them as he keeps knocking on the door to one of the closed off rooms “Bunny?”
Oh stop. Just shoot him. Axe calls Renegade Bunny?! Stop! That is too cute. His soul is melting and Cross can’t handle it.
Killer lets out a coo himself as they both sit down.
Then… Cross’s smile falls. Axe keeps knocking on the door and muttering to ask Bunny to please come out and talk to him. But nothing happens. Renegade isn’t reacting at all.
Cross frowns as he looks over at Killer and sees Killer have his own worried face.
Axe lets out a soft whine as he looks helplessly at the door separating them.
Killer frowns and speaks up “Renegade? What is wrong buddy?”
No answer.
Killer frowns and Cross leans on the table with crossed arms “Maybe… didn’t you like your breakfast today?” They had had toast before but maybe it fell wrong? “Are you feeling sick? We can get you something for that.”
Still no answer and Axe isn’t even looking at them as he just keeps a hand on the door and softly whining.
Killer and Cross share a look before Killer gives a nod and runs back towards the hall, no doubt to get Nightmare.
Cross leans on the table and looks at Axe “Did something happen? Axe?”
Axe frowns as he doesn’t even look in his direction.
Cross feels… rejected… and he isn’t even sure why. The bitties… both Axe and Renegade have been comfortable and been feeling at home right? Cross isn’t sure what is wrong. Why is Renegade suddenly unhappy and-
A tentacle gives him a gentle push and Nightmare sits in Cross’s spot “Hello Axe. Can you tell me what is wrong?”
No reaction. Axe doesn’t even look up as he keeps whining at the door.
Nightmare starts to frown as he looks at the door “Renegade? Did we do something wrong?” a moment of silence “Are you hurt?” more silence “Did we hurt you?” Nightmare keeps frowning as he watches the enclosure.
Nightmare raises a hand towards the door but Axe is faster as he twists around and growls at Nightmare as he keeps his back against the door “Leave him alone!”
Nightmare blinks “We are trying to help-”
Axe keeps glaring “Don’t need it!” he turns away from Nightmare and croons at the door again and mutters so much softer and Cross needs to focus to be able to hurt him “I am here… love you… please… please bunny… please… I am sorry…”
Nightmare stands up and nudges them out “Lets give them a moment.”
Cross looks back at the bitties and Killer whines “But… but the little guys.”
Nightmare shakes his skull “They are both feeling a lot of conflicting emotions. I think us being near just makes it worse. We need to give them some space.”
Cross doesn’t like it. In matter of fact he hates it. But he nods his acceptance for now. Hopefully they will soon explain what is wrong and then they can help.
If you think about it , bad sans poly fics are like a 5/4 melody
Usually when making a melody in an unusual time signature like 5/4 , we divide it into simpler parts , in this case the most common way to do it is dividing it into a 3/4 melody followed by a 2/4
On one hand you got your krossmare as the 3/4, always changing and developing and taking all the attention
And then you got horrordust as the 2/4 melody, always there in their own little corner , simple but happy
