more rambles for a child! MC au~ I'm a bit of writer but am so burned out I can't wrote anything so this is just idea vomit
So what if the child ends up being a mage/has magic? Would the boys help if MC just comes up to one of them one day, says, 'I can do this', shows off magic of some sort like sparks or growing owners or flames or something, and asks the skeleton to teach them? Taylor calling them a witch/unnatural child and bullying them over powers completely beyond their control, probbaly behind the boys backs? Would this make any of the boys wary since human mages trapped monsters underground?
sorry rose dear I'm a rambler and my thoughts get away from me sometimes....

Ah, burnout sucks. Hope you can get through it soon! I don't mind anyone rambling in my inbox, go ahead!
As for how the boys would feel... it varies. The fells are a bit more hostile to mages, or at least Red and Edge are more so, but that's just due to their Undergrounds. Black and Mutt are just more wary and untrusting. The others are wary of mages as well, as they caused a great amount of suffering in multiple universes, but willing to give them a second chance since it's been years after all. The only ones who wouldn't really have an opinion either way, or care more than making sure she can control it, would be the Mob!Bros. But with Mc it would be a bit different, for two reasons.
The first is that it's Mc. They know this kid, they know she doesn't mean or want to do them any harm. And the fell skeletons can admit to being selfish, as if it wasn't Mc they wouldn't be so kind. So just on that front, they all are cool with it. The other is that she's a kid, a kid living with them in fact. Kids are impressionable, they can be taught and learn and be molded by those around them. They can teach her and she knows that they'd never purposely harm her, they can teach her and she can learn Monsters aren't to be feared. So they know she's not and wont be a threat to their safety or anything, especially with them teaching her.
That being said, it still would be quite the shock to find out that she's a mage. I still think she'd be proficient in healing magic, just do to her SOUL. And that's not really an offensive or dangerous magic. But with training and the strength of SOULs, along with just being surrounded by magic and consuming magic-based foods, it could possibly develop more.
As for Taylor.... yeah, she'd definitely do that. But with Mc still being a kid, it'd end up pretty obvious something's up when she starts withdrawing from learning how to hone and use her magic. The big brothers (Black especially) of the group would easily be able to pick up on it after a while, and the others helping her figure out how to control it. Namely Aster and Papyrus. While Mc may not want to tell, they'd be able to coax the problem out of her and Taylor would be in hot water for it.
