So I saw a certain what if your character hosted Underevent trend and well ... I had to. (I know it's supposed to be one but unfortunately they are a do not seperate deal)
Also, post I saw this trend from below read more (it was on twitter and bluesky btw)
Also it isn't obvious but Andromeda is wearing tux pants to match Sans' tux jacket
Papyrus: well, that's two gifts now. and both handmade, too. for two other skeletons, you two have some of the biggest hearts we've seen yet.
Sans: and did you think we wouldn't notice those humerous puns you sewn in? you two really went abone and beyond here huh? but seriously, thanks a ton. now for the fun part of trying to figure out what to give you two in return.
Papyrus: ... tibia honest, not sure what that'll be but it'll definitely be coming your way soon.
(please know they will be wearing them for an embarrassingly long amount of time while also being super careful with them, thank you so much for the gifts!! The idea for the poncho designs was literally perfect!)
So skelliebros what is your opinion on dream and nightmare? I don't remember if anyone ask you that. Or how about the murder or killer or even horror?
Sans: lil shnookie pookies we want to hug the metaphorical stuffing out of. or literal in this case since this is the only way we can right now.
Papyrus:... really hope no versions of them see this. unless they would let us do that to actual versions of them instead of plushies, then hope they do see this.
Sans: i mean i'm pretty sure we could find a dream and he'll let us. maybe even... convince a horror sans to do it to with the right bargaining chip... s.
Papyrus: noooot sure about horror sans... or if that's ethical enough for us to try but dream? talk about a dream come true, heh heh.
(Basically, they would like any Sans and Papyrus (currently can't think of any they would dislike but that could change). Some more than others and in different ways depending on who they are. More below!)
They tend to avoid versions of themselves that have more code influence over them (aka older, popular Sanses and Papyri) since they tend to see them a little more like celebrities of the Multiverse than other thems.
Think of them having more parasocial relationships with more popular/older AU Sanses and Papyri, knowing (lots of bits of) their memories and experiences and knowing those versions of them have zero connection to them in return.
And being more willing to be buddies with newer/less known Sanses and Papyri since they feel less connected to them since there is less code of them floating around that could have made up the Outbound bros' code . I don't know how to explain it fully argh
Also, just saying, Papyrus is more likely to get genuinely attached to other thems than Sans even if they seem to like them equally... Just throwing that out there.
Introducing a pair of skellies from the Omega Timeline, Toots and Popie!
Summary, a Sans and Papyrus that the Outbound bros are friends with in the Omega Timeline. More detailed explanation of them and their relationship with the bros under the cut.
They're from a Lustlust universe, at least I'm calling it that but... it's just Underlust but Alphys managed to create a suppressant that... Heavily clamps down on the LUST trait the adult monsters had been injected with.
Since the feeling of Lust can extend to general passion, vigour, all those feelings, it has the side effect of making all the monsters given the suppressant really relaxed and easy going so the Underground became pretty mellow once it started to roll out. Not really that much of a change for Sans but way more noticeable with Papyrus.
Unfortunately, the creator had only written out all the important points for all the important characters, designed Sans and Papyrus and kinda left the AU there so Toots and Popie have like a weird mix of memories with the other characters, knowing things happened but actually remembering how they all looked like or even their underground is suuuuper foggy and distant.
Once they were brought to the Omega Timeline, it was super awkward since (I'd imagine) some people are a little wary of characters from Lust universes. Toots did manage to work with the scientists in the OT to recreate the suppressant so they can take it regularly so they're good on that front. Didn't help much with them integrating with everyone (at first, they eventually do).
The Outbound bros then came in while both sets of bros were relatively new to the OT and instantly noticed each other's ectobodies and had to talk to each other. They all quickly bonded and could relate with more things than they expected. Hopefully I'll get to draw them interacting cause I'm realising I'm bad at describing things until I actually have an example of them.
