Unlikely friendships that somehow happened anyway!

Rook and Grawlix (and Dagger): Grawlix is a bad influence on Rook, especially when Dagger is present. They encourage Rook’s more chaotic side. At first it was just to see what stupid stuff Rook would do if given the chance, but Rook took it as genuine friendship. Now Grawlix is attached too.

Mal and Edge: It might not seem that surprising that these two get along, but Mal almost killed Edge when they first met. No one questions Mal’s place as a captain! They don’t really get along until Dyre and Alli get sick of their constant bickering and force them to hang out. (Classic Undyne gave them the idea)

Rus and Rufous: These two immediately clicked as friends, despite seemingly opposite personalities. Rus is more confident, albeit more awkward, and Rufous is anxious, but charismatic once he opens up. They bond over a love of art and video games, with Rus bringing Rufous out of his shell. Now that they’re friends, Rufous drags him off on hikes and nature trails, which Mal wholeheartedly supports. Rus isn’t really used to that level of activity yet, so usually they only make it about halfway.

Wraith and Mech: A monster who produces too much magic and a monster who doesn’t produce enough. They started spending time together more out of necessity than anything else, but they’ve grown to enjoy the company too. They talk about hypothetical machines and the workings of the Void and anti-magic, like the Wasteland. It’s a calming experience for both of them.

Scythe and Sans: The fact that Scythe is getting along with any version of his brother is a miracle in itself. Sans eventually got Chip to tell him what happened between them (Scythe refused to talk to him, because he’s a sans) and he immediately ditched Chip to find Scythe. The change in attitude even surprised Papyrus when Sans cut contact with Chip and invited Scythe to live with them. Of course, Scythe said no, but Sans is a patient guy. He’s still not on Scythe’s good side, but he’s reached neutral, so Scythe tolerates him. Sans doesn’t mind having another little brother to look out for, even if Scythe doesn’t see him as family yet.

Tell me tell me tell me, what are the love languajes for the Scatertale boys

I don’t remember getting this ask at all but I’m answering it now! I don’t know if I’ve answered something similar to this before, but if I have, then this is more up-to-date info

————

Scattertale Papyrus- Knight’s love language (receiving) is physical affection. He’s usually very active, so he doesn’t really go out of his way to cuddle or anything, but he does absolutely love when his partner sits in his lap while he’s reading. Honestly, even holding his hand makes him really happy.

He shows affection through acts of service. It’s usually little things like helping carry groceries or holding doors open, but he does this at every opportunity.

Scattertale Sans- Xenon receives affection through quality time. He’s really introverted though, so there’s not always a chance to spend time with him.

He gives affection via physical touch. Xenon is very snuggly, to the point that it might get irritating. Oh his partner is sitting down? Not without cuddling him!

Scattertale Gaster- Mech receives affection best via words of affirmation. Compliments go a long way, especially if they’re about him being smart. Complimenting his appearance makes him blush tho.

Mech shows affection through physical touch. He’s awkward though, so he doesn’t usually act on that. If he’s distracted enough, there’s a good chance he’ll have a hand on someone’s shoulder or waist if he’s interested in them. As soon as he realizes, he’ll apologize and go right back to being awkward.

What if an asteroid crashes near their house? (the scattertale)

The Scattertale bros would all be varying levels of curious about the giant space rock. Knight and Mech would spend a few days comparing its properties to regular rocks, but they don’t gain much more than a fun story.

Xenon will hang around and watch the tests they run, but he’s not that into the science-y specifics. He’s just waiting for a chance when his brothers aren’t paying attention. It doesn’t end up being worth the effort; apparently space rocks taste pretty similar to earth rocks. It was cool though?

An earthquake sudenly happens and a tree is about to fall over his car. Scatertale and Swapfell

As with a lot of prompts involving the Scattertale boys, this (for them) takes place outside their universe. Because otherwise there’d be no cars. (This also assumes that all these skeletons would have cars, which usually wouldn’t be the case)

————

Swapfell Sans- Ha! Now he has an excuse to get a motorcycle. He could have done without the earthquake though. Mal hates those.

Swapfell Papyrus- He was so focused on the earthquake that he didn’t notice the tree falling. He’s going to need a new car.

Swapfell Gaster- It’s not that big of a deal. It was a rental. You’d think he’d spend that much on a car when he could just teleport?

Scattertale Sans- Oh Knight is going to kill him. The car is crushed and so are Xenon’s hopes of not taking the bus. If only Knight would let him teleport more often.

Scattertale Papyrus- Knight manages to catch the tree mid-fall. The earthquake was scary, but the thought of his beloved car being damaged was just a tad scarier.

Scattertale Gaster- This is a good thing! A new project to focus his mind on is always welcome and building a new car from scratch should be interesting.

may i ask the scattertale skeles & 💙??

💙: What is their perfect date?

Keep in mind that this is in the context of their world, so there aren’t many options for types of dates.

Scattertale Sans- He would never tell anyone this except for someone he really trusted, so this would be a date for a partner he was already very close to: there’s a place on the outside of the mountain that is still untouched by the wasteland. It’s up on the side of the mountain, so you have to climb to reach it, but it’s worth it.

There’s a flat, grass-covered area with an echo tree, likely the last, and he thinks it’s kept alive by the root system of singular echo flowers within the mountain. Or maybe the tree is what keeps them alive without sunlight. He’s not sure, but the tree itself isn’t what amazes him.

It’s the music. The flowers that bloom all over the dark branches are constantly singing. There must be dozens of voices, all singing together, and Xenon had never heard anything like it until he found that tree. He’d researched echo flowers and trees after he discovered this place, and according to the books, the tree can’t have it’s echoes overridden as easily as the flowers, but he doesn’t want to risk it.

That’s precisely why he doesn’t want anyone to know about it... But he would make an exception for his partner (as long as they agree not to talk near the tree). Maybe, with their help, he could get the tree to repeat visual echoes as well—something that the flowers can’t do.

Supposedly, if an echo tree isn’t already showing visible echoes, repeating a motion similar to what the tree would be showing can activate it. He would have tested it by himself, but the tree is echoing music, singing. Meaning it would likely show people dancing. In Xenon’s opinion, dancing by himself by a tree would feel really dumb, especially if it didn’t work.

But maybe his partner would dance with him...? If it doesn’t activate the tree then oh well, but if it does, they would get to finally see the people whose voices echo through the flowers.

He doesn’t know it, but the tree is old. So old that if he and his partner could get it to show them its past, they would see humans and monsters dancing together, singing, and celebrating a wedding between two of them. They held the celebration near the tree specifically so that their songs would be heard—so that they would be remembered.

Scattertale Papyrus- There’s a huge library on the outer edge of the Underground. It’s main wall is directly connected to the inner wall of the mountain itself, and as such, the ceiling is a bit thin in some places. Sunlight streams through holes in the stone above and, in his opinion, shines beautifully on the library. As one of the few places in the Underground with direct sunlight, the floor of the library is littered with green moss and flowering vines that hang from the shelves.

This is Knight’s favorite place in the world, but it feels so lonely. It’s full of stories and history written by monsters who aren’t around anymore, or even humans who used to live among them, and yet almost no one visits it.

A perfect date for Knight would be sharing this place with someone. There are plenty of fascinating works describing history and useful information, but dates are meant to be fun! He would bring his datemate to the storybooks, most of which are damaged, and read with them. Because the books are either worn with age or the rain that falls through, most are missing key parts of the stories they contain. That’s the fun part!

Knight spent many quiet days as child making up the missing chapters and he would love to hear how his datemate would fill in the blanks of the same stories.

Scattertale Gaster- Compared to his brothers, Mech has rather normal preferences for a date, especially after spending so much time around humans. Apparently a “candle-lit dinner” is a very common choice, and he can see why. He is, admittedly, not great at romance, but in the mountain, fire is very uncommon. Because of the limited resources, there isn’t much to burn. As such, fire is only for very special occasions.

So having a candle burning during a date? It feels quite special, although anyone from outside the mountain likely wouldn’t understand why it’s so important to him.

That last one was painful, howzabout ❣️ for Ozone, Red and Xenon to counteract the angst? ;;

Combining these two cause it’s the same prompt and one of the skels is the same (Xenon)

❣️: What makes them blush/gets their heart pounding?

Outerhorror Sans- It’s very easy to make him blush a little bit. Showing any amount of affection: holding his hand, kissing his cheek, or even just hugging him will make a soft dark blue appear on his cheekbones. However, most of this will make him more relaxed rather than “get his heart pounding”.

For that, kissing his neck or jaw would be more effective.

Underfell Sans- Genuine affection. Compliments or simple romantic gestures, such as giving him a gift or random just-because kisses/hugs, will make him blush badly. As for making his heart (soul? they dont have hearts) pound, just genuinely telling him “i love you” works well.

Scattertale Sans- From an outside perspective, it seems like it would be hard to make him blush since he’s so laid-back, but it’s actually pretty easy. A kiss that’s any more than a quick peck is a sure way to make him blush brightly (literally, considering he’s bioluminescent). He’s very unused to that type of affection.

Scattertale Papyrus- It is very difficult to make Knight blush. He may blush lightly at compliments, kind/caring acts, or occasionally just from thinking about how happy his partner makes him, but it depends more on his mood than anything else.

Quite honestly, the only guaranteed way to make him really blush is probably a makeout session.

Scattertale Gaster- Any amount of flirting will essentially break him. Romantic flirting from his partner (or someone he’s interested) will make him a blushy, panicky mess. He has no idea what to do.

More suggestive flirting from his partner (only his partner, otherwise he gets super uncomfortable) will have pretty much the exact same effect, except he’ll be even worse and quite embarrassed before going with it

Journal Entry ???

It’s been two days since the small human tricked me into helping them. They’ve told me their name is Frisk. The tell me quite a lot of things actually—they seem wary of silence. I don’t have the heart to tell them I’m not retaining much of the information. They may already know. I keep forgetting their name.

...

They told me their name is Frisk. They asked my name this time, saying they should hear it at least once for all the times they’ve reminded me of theirs. I told them I have too many names to remember. They laughed. It reminded me of someone. I’m sure he’d have laughed too.

I keep thinking of the two of them. I refuse to forget them. I will find a way back, I have to, for their sake. The human asked if I have a family. I do. I remember that.

Frisk told me their name again.

...

I’ve forgotten their name again.
