OMGGGGG THIS IS SO CUUUUUTE 😭🙏💖💖💖💖 I Love It So Much! I Love Their Poses And Expressions!

Y’know. Just friend things.

[This version of Red & his sprite are from @bonelyheartsclub. He calls her ‘shrink’ because she’s a counselor but he spells it with a y because her name has a y. The man’s got jokes.]

Rough sketch developed for my personal Fell!Sans design >:3c

Notes on his personality:

[For determining how I want him to act, I first wrote out a description of what I think the original Sans’s motivations, values, and mindsets are, with some added miscellany. Afterwards, I modified it based on how my concept of a Fell AU might push him in one direction or another.]

Humorous; enjoys jokes and banter. F!Sans is even more careful about playing to his audience than in UT – raucous bars vs. dinner party intelligentsia. Pranks aren’t taken with much grace in Fell, so he’s not whipping out the whoopee cushions. And he’s only intentionally annoying with people he’s really comfortable with, when he knows it will be received with affectionate exasperation, or in situations where it would be advantageous to charm and amuse someone at someone else’s expense.

He’s not above using mean-spirited humor to slight someone, either for social clout or to put someone in their place, but he’ll always do something to smooth it over later. Best to stay on people’s good sides as much as possible.

Observant, especially of expressions/body language

Scientific / intelligent / curious

Social, likes making friends – socializes enough to be widely known and to make a good impression. This is his survival strategy of choice. Allows him to keep abreast of any potential threats through a wide information network. He genuinely wants to connect with people, but understands that actual trust can be dangerous – there’s no guarantee of loyalty or good will from anyone.

Cheats and lies to get the upper hand (cunning & innovative). Can manipulate time and space / break the game mechanics to do this. Fucks around with this even more in Fell

Resigned; there’s no future so all he can do is enjoy the present with the people he cares about (esp. Papyrus) He works harder at making sure F!Papyrus knows he is reliable

Might not do much more work at the sentry stations than in UT, since sentry work is boring to him, but certainly keeps up the appearance of doing more work, enough to be on Undyne’s good side and to be respectable.

Maybe less of a salesman grifter and more into bets, gambling, and what seem like games of chance? Absolutely uses his timespace fuckery to his advantage, but intentionally loses just often enough to avoid suspicion.

He’s probably been depressed for most of his life, so sleeping in his free time to escape isn’t new. However, he has to put a lot of time into keeping up a presence with others, so he has fewer opportunities for sleep. Has maintained better physical condition out of necessity, but still prefers to shortcut than walk if he doesn’t need to stop and socialize along the way. Also still eats like garbage.

Strong feelings about promises (some kind of trauma?)

Just as, if not more, internally conflicted than in UT about whether “tend and befriend” or “the best defense is a strong offense” is the better survival strategy – and about which one he wants more based on his own feelings/principles

Still will not violently confront you no matter how many people you kill, until his back’s against the wall because the world might end entirely)

Kinda judgmental (I mean, obviously lkasdf;lj) and varies in passive aggression/implied accusations vs. bluntness - Definitely nastier about this than in UT, though his standards are probably a little different given the world. [How much does he actually care about non-violence? Does it hinge on whether he thinks a person deserves it or it’s “necessary”?]

Can be confrontational and meddlesome, but how much of his following the player around and being helpful is him adhering to the promise and how much is his natural desire to help? Is he wanting to help the player or is he keeping an eye out on behalf of his fellow monsters? It’s probably a mix of all of these things. Although he typically has a confident, easygoing swagger and doesn’t pick fights, he is more aggressive in responding to people who intentionally provoke him. It doesn’t pay to be timid in Fell. And everyone knows that he can and will meddle in their affairs if he has some incentive to do so.

DOES seem to be genuinely invested in being helpful, especially towards Papyrus, but also with Alphys. Is very generous – often out of true goodwill and concern for others, but also because it “buys” him goodwill from others… at least enough for a tip-off or occasional favor.

Enjoys the limelight, but does not seek leadership Deeply caring and sentimental; sometimes the affectionate things he does seem to be in secret

Doesn’t talk much about himself. Distrusting and unwilling to be vulnerable, given how precarious social connections are. With the people he does trust, he wants to seem strong, competent, and reliable, and so avoids vulnerability even with them. All of this is incredibly lonely for him.

Miscellany: Enjoys food and is an adventurous eater (OR is just making shit up about human food to entertain his neighbors in Snowdin lasdfj;sfja)??? But always orders the worst burger off the menu?

Is an entertainer at the MTT resort

Cares more about appearances than UT Sans; how he presents himself is intentional and based on how he wants people to think about and respond to him

Probably does not scratch his ass in public

This version of Fell Sans and Papyrus have more genuine, transparent affection for each other than in many depictions of Fell. Heightened danger has made them close allies.

I was trying to do some warm up doodles and then… immediately got carried away and spent much more time noodling around on it, instead.

[As always, quality will be sharper on clickthrough.]

Designs for what I call "Post-Killer" Sans, inspired by thinking about @rahafwabas 's second comic on Killer's origin, where he's re-programmed by Chara. The one on the left from an "interrupted" Bad Timeline (a timeline where Killer helped Chara or the Bad Sanses), and the one on the right from a Good Timeline (a timeline where he killed Chara). More information about them under the cut~!

The "interrupted" Bad Timeline is one where someone partially undoes Chara's programming. Because this version fully became "Killer" and murdered his friends and family, the person who rescues him leaves him a little bit of Determination -- as Alphys describes it: "The will to live. The resolve to change fate."

If he were turned fully back into "Sans," he might destroy himself in despair after what he's done. However, the Determination is contained safely inside his soul now.

This "Post-Killer" doesn't feel that he is still Sans, and so he goes by Z now. When people ask him what it stands for, he'll give them a different answer every time. He dresses very differently to distinguish himself from the skeleton he used to be, and though he can manifest his eye lights, he prefers to leave them off, because it gives him an air of ~mystery.~ However, he'll use them when he wants to express himself in a more forceful way, and sometimes they'll appear on their own when he feels a powerful emotion.

Although he doesn't see himself as Sans, some of Sans's core personality remains. Z is still a jokester and a prankster who enjoys having a good time with the people around him. He's more of a chatterbox, though, as well as more optimistic and willing to do things in self-interest. Z likes to present himself with a certain amount of swagger and very much enjoys flirting, especially with his S/O(s). He's very romantic and wants them to feel swept off their feet even if they've been together for a long time.

The Sans from the Good Timeline never fully succumbed to Chara's re-programming and never killed anyone, although it was very difficult for him. With the help of his loved ones, he's able to either resist the urge to gain LV, or is restrained when he's overcome until he can get control over himself once more. Together, they come up with a plan to defeat Chara. After Sans kills them, he uses their soul along with the other six to break the barrier, allowing the monsters to return to the surface.

Before leaving, Alphys uses the DT Extraction Machine to remove the extra Determination from Sans's soul. It hasn't quite fully gone back to its former shape, and Sans still feels the effects of the reprogramming sometimes. He has trouble making decisions -- when asked what he wants, his mind sometimes goes blank, and he genuinely doesn't know how to answer. His emotions also aren't as strong as they used to be, but they're still present -- just quieter.

For a while, Sans goes through a period of wondering if he is "really Sans" again, aware that his programming was still changed and that he's just one of a version of various Sanses. [Art of him during his recovery period.] However, in the end he decides that yes, he IS still Sans -- it's who he wants to be. Now that everyone's free from the resets and have a future to look forward to, he also feels a little more optimistic and energetic, and likes to dress in brighter colors than he used to.

[Although he just calls himself "Sans," as a nickname I refer to him as "Sans Avec," to distinguish him from the other Post-Killer and from Classic Sans.]

Both Z and Sans Avec have stains from the black overflow of Determination that used to leak from their eyes. Sans A. sometimes likes to put cosmetic glitter over his to make it look more like an intentional style choice.

Could you draw 5C, Kennyo?

Here you are, lovely~!!! \O/ A hamdsome grumpy man for you X3

@motherbugmoart​ requested Red & Snyk angst in the “my wife fucking left me” palette from @m-chromatic​‘s palette challenge. @kuroshiro101 and @archiarthur referenced the meme, though, and I couldn’t help but take it in a more silly direction asdlfjsadlljksad I think I’m pretty happy with it! Thanks to everyone who helped inspire this piece! -^^-
