I got a really long ask so I'm going to split it into multiple posts :D

What are the underjumble cast's pronouns?

All pronouns are not required to be used by characters unless stated otherwise, have fun tweaking or adding on!

Sans hasn’t really questioned his gender. He doesn’t feel happy OR sad when he hears he/him. It feels right yeah, but he feels neutral about them. I don’t think he would mind with any other pronouns, it would be a bit huh? but at the end of the day he’s not gonna feel bad about them unless it/its. He uses He/him.

Papyrus is too young to have even considered the idea that he’s not male. He/him.

Asriel is, you guessed it, he/him. Sorry y'all. I’m infamous for making all my characters queer but not right now.

Chara uses they/it. They’re referred to by them a lot, but some pepper it in. They don’t mind if you call them exclusively by one or the other. Chara is canonically non-binary (not as in the gender itself, but as in outside the binary) in underjumble, and you may not refer to them using he or she. Any others are fine.

Napstablook is a little silly they/them! They will not correct you if you don’t use the right pronouns due to anxiety, though, so I won’t take it as misgendering if any character uses pronouns other than that, since it’s usually Mettaton standing up for them. Napstablook is a bit ambiguous because although they use they/them they are a demiboy, so I will accept using he. Just, don’t make them into a he/him only, okay? I want to respect their original pronouns.

Mettaton is a he/him. Specifically, a trans he/him! :D I would prefer if you kept part of his masculine pronouns, but he’s not outright confirmed to be trans in undertale, so I won’t keep that rule with an iron fist.

Maddie, like in canon, is a trans she/her catgirl. You cannot use he for her.

Toriel is a she/her

Asgore is he/him. Sorry but he’s the embodiment of a 40-50 year old divorced depressed cishet dad. Love him though!

The sapphics are she/her :)

Gaster is a he/him. He gives me the vibes that he wouldn’t be purposely transphobic, but he’d make mistakes that make you cringe, you know. His heart is in the right place.

Frisk is they/them. He or she will not be tolerated.

Rain

Papyrus didn't know much of the surface before Sans fell.

He knew that they used to live there, and there's an endless void above them, (which he always found hard to believe. It must've ended somewhere, right?) but other than that, it was hazy.

His brother had a lot to tell him about the surface, and from how he would talk about it, it sounded like paradise!

One day, though, he started telling the younger about rain. Papyrus found it silly he was acting as if it was exclusive to the surface. After all, there was a place where it rained all the time!

Besides, he never liked rain. It kind of hurt.

But, Sans insisted it was different due to the height it fell or the noise or something... Papyrus wasn't really paying attention.

Years later, Papyrus visited the surface with his brother. It was raining, to his surprise.

Sans, who was in control, paused and looked slightly up, a small smile growing on the fusions' face.

Papyrus thought the rain was lovely at the time.

He soon grew to hate it.

Isolation

Sans was always alone.

...

Well..

He knew people. A few liked him, and would spend their time with him.

But, even with their company, he was never truly not alone. They would talk to him, but it wasn't with him.

If that made sense.

That all changed, though, when he met his soon-to-be brother. With him, it was like something sparked, and the world became warm and full of life. After that event, they were always together. Even when Sans felt isolated from the rest, Papyrus was always there by his side.

. . .

If Sans was smart, maybe he would still be there.

I CAN'T THINK OF QUESTIONS SO JUST!!!!!! TALK ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ANYTHING YOU WANT TO ABOUT THE BROS OR ABOUT CERTAIN CHARACTERS LIKE, LITTLE QUIRKS ABOUT THEM MAYBE, THEIR FAVORITE FOODS, COLORS, ETC.??? YOU CAN JUST BRAINSTORM FOR THE HECK OF IT IF YOU WANT >:DDDDDDDD

Quirks!

Sans mumbles to himself out loud. Sometimes when writing or typing or just some thoughts. He doesn't do it consciously, so sometimes he'll start in the middle and stop randomly, so even if you hear it it's a bit hard to understand.

Napstablook doesn't teleport like it seems so in the game, they become basically invisible like becoming incorporeal. If embarrassed or scared or just not wanting to be around they'll automatically go invisible/transparent. In theory they could control it, but that needs practice.

Maddie always has something up her sleeve. It's not even a secret since she's not very protective of it, but she always has something new and casually throws it out there like it's not. Unhinged.

Asgore's garden resembles his general mood. If it's shining and healthy and vibrant, he's rather happy. If it starts wilting, he's in a slump. You could interpret that as his magic synching his plants like how dogs with depressed owners are depressed, him having more energy to take care of the plants when happier, or something else.

Toriel doesn't use much magic anymore, due to sometimes her guilt of the amalgamates manifest in her magic (more goopy or faces in it)

Gaster can speak the normal font, kinda like Sans. He usually just signs though because it's like switching your accent and hard and annoying.

Change

Papyrus liked change.

After all, without change, he wouldn't have met his new best friend! With change new opportunities arrived. He loved the uncertainty of nature.

...

Until his father fell ill.

Gaster tried to hide the sickness and shrug it off, continuing his schedule as normal. However, every day he grew weaker and soon was unable to protest with Asriel

Everytime Papyrus looked at Gaster, he felt sick to his stomach, but couldn't look away.

He felt even more sick when it came out it was his fault.

Sans smiled wider and made more puns, chuckling often, but Papyrus could tell he wasn't happy.

Everything was different, but it wasn't like the other changes before.

That was the day Papyrus learned...

Maybe change wasn't so good.

[underjumble]

hey! is there any other tidbits (without spoilers) you can share about Sans and Papyrus in this AU?

Unlike the original, Sans can't pause time or summon Gaster blasters. He can teleport, use blue magic, has bone attacks and a special dagger made out of bones, which has attacks dealing with justice (I only have 2 attacks with it for now, but I might expand on it)

Papyrus learned blue magic from his brother, and isn't as good at it. He also has bone attacks. It's not canon if he has or doesn't have a Gaster blaster for now.

Papyrus and Doggo have different magic, not only due to the new form but also because magic reflect yourself, and as he changed, his magic did too.

Sans doesn't eat until he's made sure Papyrus has had enough.

Doggo has... less than stellar sight. He's colorblind and his glass eyes are cracked. His sense of smell and hearing usually makes up for it, though.

They actually used to sleep in different beds, but Sans started sleeping with Papyrus due to him helping with nightmares, but now it's just second nature.

Papyrus, when alive, didn't really notice or mind his father's absence. As he grew bitter and angry, though, he found himself having a grudge against Gaster.

Sacrifice

All of monsterkind seems to adore you.

Whenever you went outside of your usual swellings, people would stare and whisper about you. Strangely, this time they were looking at you with awe.

It was selfish, but you enjoyed being important, seen as something to wonder at. Personally, you didn’t see it, but you wouldn’t stop them. Sometimes you even believed they loved you.

You would snap out of the fantasy sooner or later, but when you were in it, you felt important, near believing what they said.

They didn’t love you at the end of the day. No matter what they said or even thought, you knew it. They loved the *idea* of you. They loved hope of the future that you gave thm, that a monster could live among humans. You were the outcome of a human and monster that loved each other and saw each other as equal.

They didn’t care for Sans the skeleton, the lazy prankster, the brother and son. It didn’t matter how your day was, or what you’re reading. They loved Sans the hybrid, the angel that’ll free them all.

You wanted to be good enough. You wanted to be what they thought you were, but your soul was too weak. You needed a stronger soul than a human’s to just pass the barrier, and with the magicians long gone, it would take an incredible power to destroy it.

If only you were stronger, you could save them. But you were so weak, you couldn’t fulfill your one purpose.

…

You knew, deep down, you were a sacrifice.

There is no other way. Even if you could leave the underground, you weren’t strong enough to take human souls.

I'm so lost and confused and I need God. I need Him to come and guide me. I don't know which Bible to believe and which is most accurate.

Rambles about hybrids in Underjumble

They were seen as taboo before for the most part due to the rising tension between the races, but they were there. However, they were often hidden away and made to look like perfect monster or perfect human.

Ironically, you could take away that the human magicians who made the barrier were seen as powerful humans who learned how to control magic, and likely thought so themselves, but humans can't use magic. Point blank period. They weren't fully humans.

You could also believe they knew but were too connected to humans or trying to save their skin like boss monsters. I have interpretations, but I want it to be clear I am not against going canon. :)

If there were any obvious hybrids, they'd likely be shoved down into the underground because they're just as bad, and through generations (depending on how long you like to think it is) their offspring would be basically fully monster or fully.

Monsters and humans aren't different species like in many other stories. The game states that they're races; I wouldn't fully say that, since although there are slight differences between human races, Caucasians and idk let's say Asians aren't made up of completely different things. I'd say they're closest to breeds than races or species.

Hybrid's chemistries are wildly different from each other, there aren't any rules that every hybrid follows other than their family tree isn't fully monster or fully human.

Hybrids of boss monsters and humans are the most common in the present day if not all of them, so hybrids are stronger than they usually would be. If Chara was part regular monster and not part boss monster, their magic wouldn't be nearly as strong, due to inheriting much more human than monster.

I like Chara myself because they aren't born as incredibly strong with magic, but instead they found out how to use their abilities to better use instead of just using it like normal monsters, and trained hard for it.

Again, I can't stress enough that I'm talking about my own thoughts and this is not meant to be any rules, so don't think this, but I personally see Chara as someone didn't have a full monster as a parent, instead having a hybrid parent and a human with the boss monster being a bit farther up the lineage, while Sans had a full boss monster as a parent.
