Any headcanons involving Killer and Lust? (Platonically? ^^)
Oh, i don’t really think about Lust/Sugar Plum much. Mostly because I only ever see him paired with Killer when they want to make Killer out to be a horn dog or a pervert.
I did remember making a post somewhere about Killer’s first time trying to have sex, because I do think he’s a virgin—Sans was apparently “too lazy” for stuff like that, and Killer doesn’t exactly have any prime opportunity for that or try it out—but I remember making a post about how Killer would try to have his first time with a lust!Toriel at a Lust’s variants brothel.
It doesn’t go so well—Killer is triggered and starts dissociating, almost kills the Toriel, but shortcuts away in time before he can. I remember ending the post by saying he left some type of flowers outside the bedroom door for Toriel later as an apology in the language of flowers, and then never went back to that AU and tried to avoid Lust variants because the Lust of that particular AU was protective of his workers.
But I also remember reading a fic where Nightmare dumped Killer in an Underlust variant because he thought Killer was sexually frustrated or something and just needed sex lmao. That wasn’t what he wanted or needed in the fic, but thankfully Lust (who went by a different name in the fic) and Lust’s Papyrus found him and took him in for a bit.
I distinctly remember that Lust was partial to Killer because sex or intimate interactions just never crossed his mind when interacting with Lust. He never cared about the revealing clothing Lust wore and hardly seemed to notice them, and his lack of boundaries meant he didn’t seem to take it any type of way when Lust did something like sit on his lap(?).
He just had other things going on to care about any of that in the fic.
I think it’d be interesting if a Sugar Plum variant is wary around Killer at first because of all the rumors surrounding him—Killer thinks it’s because of what he does under Nightmare and what he is and the rep he’s gained through that (and he both thinks Sugar is smart to be wary but also thinks he could give him something to actually be scared about), but it’s actually because of rumors regarding his “promiscuous” behavior (aka having his soul exposed and out in the open 24/7)—until he realizes that Killer genuinely doesn’t give a shit and has others things going on.
Or alternatively, an exposed soul signals something like a sex worker or similar of the sort (in Lustale AUs or in the bigger Multiverse whichever one), and Killer is dumped in a Lustale AU by Nightmare all bloody and bruised, and Sugar finds him and assumes something like Killer’s “pimp” harmed him because he didn’t bring enough in for the night. So Sugar takes him under his wings.
..Killer’s labor trafficking and Sugar potential first hand experience with forced prostitution could lead to be a very unique understanding I feel.
Imagine Sugar finds him passed out in the cold in Stage 2 and Killer wakes up in Stage 1 in Plum’s house confused and freaking out—both for himself, and for Sugar, unable to trust that he won’t hurt or kill whoever tried to help him—and so the guy just often sneaks out the house whenever possible without being seen or spotted.
