For the character ask thing:
Dream Sans: 12, 14, and 20?
[I'm honestly not sure which characters are your favorite, so if there's a character you like better then feel free to answer those questions based on them instead!]
Yay ty for the ask!! And I'm down to talk about Dream, no worries ~!! There is very very few UTMV characters I'm not at least a little bit into hehe ^^
12 - What's a headcanon you have for this character? Omg :O Um! Honestly it can be hard for me to answer questions like this sometimes because of how many uh interpretations of him i've read before (so separating canon vs fanon can be hard on my brain lol) buuuuut! That being said! A few things I think about him: Despite the fact that it's somewhat 'expected' or at least assumed about him (in universe), he isn't a big fan of sweet things / has minimal sweet tooth. I imagine that if he gets food gifts from those he's helping, they're often sweet goods; he always puts on a happy face about it & really does appreciate the though but he also knows he is not going to enjoy it. Would eat it (& other gifts honestly) to make them happy, no matter how much he may actively dislike what he was putting into his mouth. This one might just apply to the version of him currently being rotated in my daydreams but Dream being able to shapeshift is SO fun to think about! Even if he doesn't really tend to use it, I think he still can do it. I would imagine that if he were to use it, he would stick more towards uh like animal forms? turning into a bird or something I mean, as opposed to trying to look like someone else. He's probably thought about using it to try & hide his identity before (if he wanted to go out for a moment in peace), but that remains as a fantasy he's just never been able to actually convince himself to go through with... Smells like a spring breeze. Not much to say on this one. Just, has a pleasant light scent. One that evokes a fond sense of nostalgia. Not something you could ever quite place, as to what it was exactly. Just, light and makes you feel happier :) Can't* do that dark / blank eyesocket thing that you see with other skeletons in the fandom. Maybe it's because he's not really a skeleton (and so it isn't a possibility of his anatomy), maybe because he just doesn't have the required control over that aspect of his magic. * He has actually done it exactly once, not that he would know. It was the day of the apple incident, seeing / realising what'd happened to his brother........ 14 - Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character. I mean, I don't know how well it suits him but I think he would rock Fairy Kei fashion! Or uh lolita? Since I think the more victorian aesthetics could suit him really well. I just think he would rock the more drapery & layers & frills type of looks :D Give my man an exaggerated silhouette! And dramatic flair!! 20 - Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter? OOOOOOOoooo..... the questions ever! I half want to say Ink or Blue bc they're The Stars but also I'm not sure if that would be an entirely honest answer? I do love them together but are they the ideal? I'm not so sure. My silly answer is me (✌️) but a more serious answer would have to be anyone who can encourage him to like take more breaks & look after + value himself? I feel like he has a real problem with those things; all running himself ragged and giving all of himself until there's nothing left... Someone like Lust or maybe even a Toriel variant could fit so well. Someone who wouldn't be afraid to try and make him take care of himself for once, to try & encourage him to be 'selfish'! For his own good (genuienly)! [i guess this also counts as a bit of a HC about him huh? that he is terrible at self care. oop!]
But also..... If you're inviting me to talk about one of my more blobo guys? Then I'll alsooo answer those same questions for Fresh 👉👈
12 - What's a headcanon you have for this character? A lot of my current / active HCs are highly inspired by the way that @/contamination-zone depicts his version of Fresh I will be fully honest with you. It is just so good, I can not stop myself from rotating it in my mind and accepting it into my world view of Fresh. That being said, I am a HUGE sucker for more animalistic, weird, creature versions / depictions of Fresh. It also... make sense to me? Like Fresh is, in parts and ways / at times, a thing more so than a person. Very much not saying he isn't sapient; it's more so that he is a highly instinctively driven being. Making up a huge part of why he acts + reacts in the ways he does. So a lot of his behaviour can come across as very creature.... it's so neato :O Stuff like: preferring to be in small spaces / not like to feel to 'expose' out in the open; vocalisations such as chittering or growling; tilts his head when confused / trying to understand things [me fr]; the ways in which he attacks when the need be (pouncing, clawing, biting, ect). I promise i'm not a skeleton sniffer (/silly) but I think that any (skeletal) host he is in would smell chalky. A slightly off putting but not actually unpleasant scent. Some kind of a result of their bones going all weird due to the whole soul eating fiasco :3 Kind of tech illiterate since he's never needed it before so why is he going to start learning about it now? You give him a smartphone and he Will Not know what to do with it. Is alright with more 'era appropriate' tech since he's played with it as part of his disguise/persona before but still not confident. Perfectly fine to put batteries into a furby but can't for the life of him use a map app. Fresh, the parasite species as a whole, 1 billion% have their own language! Tying back into the animalism, there is no words; only vocalisations! You'll probably never hear one using it though, since they don't tend to gather together much** and have no reason to use it on anyone who isn't a Fresh. It is theoretically possible for other species to learn + speak the language but that's not really happening; since why would any fresh ever teach someone else their language. Pointless & potentially dangerous. They do have one though bc i just think it's a super neat + fun idea :D **Being a solitary species, just generally. They rarely interact with other members of their species, since they don't form bonds with each other like that nor is it 'smart'. Smart in terms of food management; they don't like sharing territories because that would mean sharing food sources. Which, not happening. 14 - Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character. Other than the obvious one? Hard to pick.... I think he would wear scene though. Maybe not his first choice but I could see it working! Getting to be colourful, still has the disarming aura he goes for with his (main) active/canon look. Anything that makes him seem harmless is on the table for him really. That or I'm spreading my vaporwave Fresh agenda ;3 Do I think he actually would? No comment. Is it a fav aesthetic so I want to combine it with a fav guy? Yes :D 20 - Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter? I am a big fan of Fresh & Ink as besties I really have to say! I have been convinced & converted... There are so many reasons but I think they just, relate on things? Not everything, mind you, but enough! That it makes sense to me for them to be friends. Or as close to friends as Fresh can get. I mean I have a whole OC about it (cough Creation cough) ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ask game here
