UnderTurf AU

EVERYTHING MAY CHANGE LATER Read the synopsis if you're interested. When I finally get drawings of my own, it's gonna be litty. Work in progress, trying to turn an idea into a reality. If I get 10 posts, this goes on the masterlist.

Underturf Summary - Snowdin Part 1

After Frisk leaves the underground, she encounters Sans outside on blue territory. He does the handshake thing except it’s a hand buzzer and it nearly kills you by knocking your health down a good chunk. Convo starts. Depending on your shirt, Sans comments on it. Either, “Are you trying to get killed?” or “I see you’re sporting team colors. Nice choice.” He warns you about the reds. As you pass the spaced bars that Papyrus built so long ago (the wood is rotting), you notice that the snow starts to have a bluish tint. As if someone spray painted it or something. You hide behind the conveniently shaped lamp as his brother Papyrus comes up on neutral ground and tries to get Sans to join his side. Sans refuses, but offers his brother a deal. Join his side instead. Papyrus says no. The conversation may go something like this. 

“Brother.“

“Bro. Come to negotiate again?”

“Of course Sans, otherwise I wouldn’t be so close to Rebel territory.”

“So what’s it this time?” Sans asks, although he knows the answer is the same as the other hundred times. 

“Join the Merciless, and we’ll end this together.”

“How about you join team NotAFuckingMurderingSquad? We’ve got hot dogs.“ 

“But we have my delicious spaghetti!”

“Yes, but we’ve got Grillby’s.”

“That stuff rots your insides!”

“Kinda too late for that, bro with us being skeletons n’ all.”

“Don’t get smart with me, Sans.”

“It’s okay if you don’t got the stomach for it, more for us.”

Outside of a bush pops Mettaton, filming a scene for the underground equivalent of World Star. 

Papyrus initiates the battle and it goes  with Sans dodging and throwing these really lame attacks until a wild bone from Papyrus shatters the lamp. You’re exposed. Papyrus is shocked. He tries to attack but is too excited. “Oh my gosh Undyne will be so proud of me! A real human! The final soul!” He pauses. “And she’s wearing blue!” He stamps his foot angrily. “Nevertheless, I will capture you human.”

“A human!? Oh my goodness! My ratings are gonna soar!”

Sans bends down, picks up some snow and throws it at the camera, covering the lens. 

“Hey!”

He throws one at Mettaton, who is knocked back into the bush. 

Sans also chucks one at Papyrus, before yelling out for Frisk to run and meet him ahead. You pass a sentry station that has a couple of weird gadgets behind it, along with a few bottles of barbecue sauce.

Up ahead, you run into a fork and end up going left because of some reason, I don’t know yet. Left is a dead end, with there being nothing but a fishing pole in sticking out of the icy river. But it’s okay because this Sans is actually there for you and does what he promised he would. He says don’t worry because he has a shortcut, and fucking walks you both to the right and you’re in his damn workshop.

Underturf Character Analysis - Asgore

You guys know the story. This is a remix.

“King Asgore and Queen Toriel ruled the Underground for millennia after humans sealed the monsters Underground upon their defeat during the war. Toriel and Asgore later had a son, Asriel, and adopted the first human to fall into the Ruins.

The tragedy of his children’s deaths led Asgore to declare war on humanity in a fit of anger. He swore to kill any human that fell into the Underground and planned to use their SOULs to break the barrier and destroy all humans. Toriel, disgusted with him, left New Home and disappeared somewhere into the Underground.

Before the protagonist fell into the Underground, six more humans fell. They all died, and Asgore saved their SOULs for future use.” Afterwards, Asgore had a change of heart, and fell into a depression. His attitude change put the citizens on edge, as they no longer had any reason to hope things would get better. Things took a turn for the worst when Asgore decided to abandon the throne and return to the ruins. He no longer wanted to hurt the humans, and he missed his family. He abandoned his mission, therefore breaking his promise.

This caused the Underground to go to absolute shit. People started choosing sides, electing leaders…

Appearance

Asgore is one of the few people in the underground who doesn’t sport red or blue. Instead, he ops for a neutral purple.

Underturf Character Analysis - Flowey

Background

Underturf Flowey is very similar to other au Floweys in the way that he is a nicer form of himself and that he follows Frisk around the underground as an aid. He realizes that there is a possibility that if things continue the way they are, the citizens would destroy themselves. (And with him being a coward, it’s only a matter of time before someone comes after him.) That being, he decides to help Frisk, hoping she can help save them. Don’t get me wrong, he’s still an asshole. But he’s an asshole that’s not gonna get what he wants by being an asshole.

Appearance

Blue petals, one of them is a little torn. 

Alternatively, blue face paint.

Underturf Summary - Ruins

So the human, Frisk, falls into the underground. (Frisk is a girl in this au and she’s 18, because no one’s gonna stop me from shipping Frans. ;3) This takes place in an alternate universe where it’s several years after UT Frisk would have fallen down. during this time, the Underground has basically gone to shit.

She runs into Flowey who mistakes her for a member of The Merciless because of her RED shirt, and initiates a battle. When he realizes that she’s a human, he makes her cover her shirt color with mud or something so no one from the Rebellion makes the same mistake.

Then he guides Frisk through the puzzles in the ruins. They’re either old and dusty from being out of use so long, or damaged from the war, or specifically designed for the opposing team. Flowey leads Frisk to Asgore so he can explain exactly how much danger she’s in, but instead of getting straight to the point, he offers Frisk Golden Flower tea and shares gardening tips. If the player accepts the tea, then that along with Asgore droning on and on about the perfect fertilizer puts the player to sleep. If not, then just Asgore.

The player wakes up in a child’s bedroom. There is more tea on the floor, which they can put in their inventory. There’s a box of clothes and they have the choice of either the RED shirt or the BLUE shirt which stays in their inventory. Afterwards, Frisk walks out to the living room where Asgore is attempting to replace Flowey’s soil with fertilizer. When he sees her, he stops. If the shirt is on, they both comment on it depending on the color. Flowey insists that Asgore just tell Frisk everything, and that he stop messing with his soil.

Asgore then tells this long tale of how the war started, he mentions W.D. Gaster and his plans to end the war, and Frisk gets excited. But Asgore mentions that Gaster was the only one who knew how to do it, and he disappeared after a freak accident. (Way different version of Gaster than canon.) He also mentions that Gaster had a partner, but nobody knew what happened to him either.

Frisk is determined to help, despite the odds not being in her favor. He gives a Frisk cellphone, and tells her that the only way to fix everything without sacrificing her soul would be to find Gaster. But he wouldn’t blame her if she just went to find her own way out of the underground. In fact, he offers his own soul to Frisk, telling her it was a horrible place and that the fate that awaited her was too much for him to bear. But she refuses and instead gives Asgore a hug before leaving.

Underturf Synopsis

After Asgore abandons the throne, the underground is split into two groups: the REDS who want to leave using any human soul and the BLUES who want to leave using the souls of evil humans only. Frisk has to find a way to reunite them and free them, while staying alive and stopping conflict.
