I know very little about Undertale but I am asking about the AU :3
OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD THE AUTISM. IS TAKING OVER *deep breath* (also @detentiontrack pspspsps)
OKAY! so, the au is called "save our souls", or "sos", for short :3
it mainly stars the human characters of undertale, which we know. actually not that much about! so i get to be really creative with it :3 i'm even planning to do a special "journal entry" pov thing for a couple of chapters for one character... tehe <3
but! the two main characters are frisk and chara (my beloveds!) chara's a ghost, and certainly not *evil* in this au, but they ARE an asshole. as they should be. but they also care very, VERY much for frisk, but they'd rather die than admit it
OH! and not only is chara a ghost. but they also can't sleep, or go far from frisk <3 and nobody other than frisk (and other ghosts/ former ghosts!) can hear/ see them. which is part of why chara becomes friends with napstablook! (the other part is that napstablook is my favorite character and i love them so much. blooky you deserve so much love.) napstablook gives chara what is basically a ghost ipod so that they can listen to music . their friendship means so much to me
just realized i never said what this au is about. um. uh. whoops ^^' WELL! it's a canon divergent au :3 it follows the neutral/ pacifist route up to the omega flowey fight. but when the human souls fight back against flowey. flowey tries to reset. but things go wrong, and both flowey and the human souls disappear! how mysterious! and unfortunate.
frisk wants to save everyone, because they're a classic hero archetype. so they decide to find out everything they can about the fallen humans before them in hopes of somehow tracking down their souls! and chara, just. comes along. because they have no choice :') but! there's still a problem with this plan - in order to shatter the barrier, they'd need the power of 7 human souls, and there had only ever been 6 human souls collected, so... hm... i wonder what's going to happen there...? :)))
i'm really excited for this au! but also kinda bummed, because it seems like nobody really cares about it? eh. this is a new fandom for me - it might take a bit to build an audience, but i can do it >:) i'm planning to make an upload schedule - probably once a week? - and start posting in early august since i'm going to be really busy in july.
i also wanna make some promo art :3 maybe i'll even post oc reference sheets? but i guess that's another thing. having ocs in your story. can sometimes make people less interested ^^' but i hope people will give them a chance :3
i know this was really long, but tysm owl and gus <3
