Before you enter:

Hi! Welcome to the ask wartime Gaster and Grillby blog. Here’s a few housekeeping notices:

1) please do not be rude if your ask is not answered! Some asks may be too revealing, asked too soon, or just not the right questions. I appreciate every single ask, but I can’t always answer them!

2) I am in school. Lots of school. I will try to post as regularly as possible, but I cannot promise a completely regular schedule.

3) This is a story with plot! Things will happen, gears will turn, and we will see more character eventually! Gaster and Grillby are the main focus of this story, but they are not the only characters.

4) This is not a ship-intensive story. While Grillby/Gaster IS the ship, it is not going to be the focus. The focus is on the story and the characters as entities, not their romantic relationship.

5) I use they/them if anyone ever needs to refer to me by my pronouns. It just helps me stay anonymous online :)

Enjoy!

I like the stars as well, they are really nice. Have you and Grillby always gotten along or was there a time where you didn't?

*Young monsters are young.

So, Gaster. Why aren't you sleeping? Got any secrets? Hm???????

*Gaster is “creepy.”

*He also greatly overexaggerates his age.

*Perhaps Grillby understands for more than one reason.

(Fun fact: WingDings actually comes from the Dingbat font family! I did not make that up.)

I bet you two have terrible sleep schedules, lol.

*Grillby seems to have found his way to unconsciousness.

*Gaster has not.

(Think of this as an interlude.)

(Gaster is now alone for questions.)

[wartime-undertale]

Are you alright you two, especially Gaster over there. That must of hurt in my perspective

*Gaster’s vision problems become apparent.

*Grillby mourns the past and the future.

*Cats.

*Puns.

(And perhaps a bit of foreshadowing to boot.)

[wartime-undertale]

oh hello! what're you two doing right now? (im sorry the rest of your unit (? ive forgetten the terminology already) died. that sounds terrible...)

*Grillby has no intention of becoming a chef.

*...For now.

*Some monsters say if you sneeze it means someone is talking about you.

*Seems Gaster is a good example.

(Thank you for the support!)

( pssst, would you tag all your story updates / ask answers with a single tag, like 'story' or 'update'? It makes it much easier to re-read the story in the future and I def. can see myself doing that :o bcs then all story things can be found in / tagged / (tag) / chrono )

Great idea, thank you! I just did that. Since tumblr’s tag system is ridiculous I might even just make a link to the chronological posts at some point.

Who are you? Can you introduce yourselves?

*The monsters scout for a place to rest.

*Seems they’ve found one.

*Weary bones and fires might rest soon.

*Introductions are in order.

[wartime-undertale]

*....

*the preserved image projects in front of you.

*two monsters start to speak.

*what are your questions?

(Asks are now open.)
