AU where Alex lives and meets Nina and they work at a hot topic together
you ever notice how sans is a little bit of an edgy dumbass?
i see fandom interpretation of sans usually swing entirely one way or the other—he’s either a completely goofy dipshit who doesn’t care about anything, or he’s an epic, angsty, powerful skeleton man. the latter is definitely a much bigger misinterpretation than the former, but i don’t think it’s right to characterize sans as being an entirely apathetic jokester either.
similarly, sans seems to want you to think two contradictory things: 1. he doesn’t care what you do, or about anything. 2. he’s really mysterious and tough, actually. from the very beginning, sans is like this. it seems like he’s deliberately trying to appear ominous, all while making stupid jokes and engaging in various shenanigans. when you first enter snowdin, aside from sans ominously sneaking around behind you in the shadows, there’s this branch that you can examine. it says, “(It’s a tough-looking branch.) (It’s too heavy to pick up.)” after passing it, you can hear it snap a few moments later. then, if you come back after meeting sans..
sans just completely obliterated this branch, for basically no reason? even the narrator seems somewhat unnerved by this, based on their wording. i can’t think of any reason he’d do this, other than to scare frisk (and the player). of course it could just be some kind of prank, but i mean… it must take some effort to literally annihilate an entire tree branch, and putting effort into things isn’t something sans typically does. it makes you wonder why he chose to put effort into that of all things.
and of course, he later does this:
what’s going on here is that sans undertale, the funny stupid skeleton guy that drinks ketchup and tells shitty jokes to make people begrudgingly smile, that stacks hotdogs on people’s heads and helps his brother make a dorky outfit for a costume party—y’know, THAT guy—is saying that he’d literally murder a child on sight.
… yeah i dunno guys i think he might be lying.
so then why? why does he threaten frisk, in both of these cases? maybe he’s trying to scare them/the player out of resetting? i’m not sure about that. sans seems to understand this ‘anomaly’ at least a bit; he’s aware that they’re doing this just because they can, and they feel like they have to. wouldn’t threatening them, intentionally appearing ominous and mysterious—wouldn’t that just drive their curiosity? it certainly did for most people who did a no mercy run. i don’t think sans is unaware of this, but he definitely isn’t interested in fighting anyone or going through more resets. so again, why?
during no mercy, sans stands by and does nothing, just watching while you kill his family, his friends—he only steps in because the world would literally be destroyed otherwise. it makes you wonder why he didn’t do anything at first. however, he explains this himself when talking about the anomaly:
“to be blunt… it makes it kind of hard to give it my all. … or is that just a poor excuse for being lazy? hell if i know.”
so why does he fight you at all? if he’s entirely numb at this point, why would he suddenly start caring about the destruction of the world? he wouldn’t, simply because he cared the entire time. he’s angry and afraid, and if he really didn’t care, he wouldn’t do any of things he does. it makes me wonder why he tries to convince the player of his indifference. i honestly think it’s because he does care—like, a lot—and he REALLY doesn’t want anyone to know that… including himself. i don’t think it’s a stretch to say that he’s doing this to hide that fact from not only the player, but possibly from himself as well? because sans seems to genuinely believe both of these things; i don’t think his feigned apathy is a deliberate façade to trick the player, and it’s definitely not entirely feigned, either. remember that he literally does nothing to stop you from killing anyone.
sans is understandably enraged about all of this, and he’s obviously upset when the player chooses to kill other monsters (especially papyrus) but he does nothing—because he doesn’t care, because he’s lazy. but mostly because it’d hurt a lot less if he genuinely didn’t care, so he tries not to.
sans isn’t an ultra powerful time-bending entity, he’s not an embodiment of justice when he fights you, and he really doesn’t want to be. sans is a normal, goofy guy caught up in something incomprehensibly horrifying and he can’t do anything about it. he’s angry but most of all he’s tired; he doesn’t want to fight— he doesn’t want to do any of this.
he’s powerless to stop it, and he’s defenseless against it.
… so the only thing he can do? dodge it while he still can.
MY MARBLE HORNETS HCS (featuring no trauma!)
•Alex and Tim are trans men. One has top surgery while the other does not
•Alex had/ still has bad acne
•Brian goes for morning runs, keeping himself active is good for his mental health and keeps him motivated
•Jay has social anxiety and autism
•Tim actually likes to read a lot, being on his phone does almost nothing for him unless its to text his friends
•Their friendgroup is affectionate towards eachother because they’re just that comfortable. Brian is the one who initiates the most and he’s 100% a playful tease saying that they’re ‘falling in love’ with him. They are. This only makes them love him more
•Tim is someone who likes soft lighting, so string lights or lamps in a dark room over big bright lights anyday
•Jay has a caffeine problem, he tried coffee one day and it just stuck. Same goes for Alex with monster
•ALEX WAS A SCENE KID AT SOME POINT‼️
•They all do prank wars on one another, it CAN get annoying but its still fun and only lasts a day
•Playing with Tims hair is like his sleep switch, he’s passed tf out once someones fingers are scratching his scalp
•Brians favourite flavour of icecream is something like green apple, he’s always bummed that a lot of places don’t have it
•Jay has a specific routine he has to follow every night and morning, disrupting said routine can be upsetting for him (its the autism).
•THEY GO TO PRIDE PARADES WHEN THEY CAN
•They’ve all had that classic idea of “lets all live together someday” knowing damn well being in the same house together for even a week, would be hell. Dorms are just fine.
•Sleepovers consist of some of the best memories!
•Alex and Amy only lasted a total of 2 months
•Tim occasionally goes on hikes
•They took a beach trip once and buried Brian in the sand like a mermaid
•Jay for some reason is always cold whilst Tim is warm
•They borrow eachothers clothes whether its for comfort or warmth or even if they just wanna wear it
•Bran helps give Alex his T shots whilst Jay helps Tim and tbh they do switch depending on who’s with them at the time
•They have a conjoined playlist so that way they cant really fight over who has the aux in the car, they only listen to the joined one as a group
•Alex is much more affectionate when he’s sleepy and his words become loose since he’s so tired. He’ll compliment someone whilst half asleep and deny it the next day
•Jay doesn’t like sweet things often, they make him feel sick, but salty things he enjoys
•They’ve all shared a bed at least once, it was not comfortable in the slightest given they were spread out on ONE bed. They’d passed out watching something at a sleepover
•Tim is prone to nosebleeds
•Brian has this scent of like..a warm summer day and no one knows what the actual scent is
•Jay keeps a hanging polaroid line on his wall, they’re all dated and everything
Thats it for now, none of these are even that serious lmaoo just for fun :3 (bro my brain finna explode with these)
everypony makes mistakes,,, I had more then my shar- *gets shot*
My Star Trek friends, reblog with your favourite most ‘out of context’ Star Trek image
I’ll start:
No, it’s pretty bad.
my tumblr post was mentioned in a minecraft parkour video. finally
My name is Mohammed, and I am a husband and father of three amazing children. We live in Gaza, a place that was once filled with the vibrant energy of bustling markets, children playing in the streets, and the comforting presence of family and friends. Our city, with its beautiful coastline and historic charm, was a place where we could dream of a better future. 🥺
But today, that Gaza feels like a distant memory. The ongoing war has ravaged our home, leaving it severely damaged and our means of livelihood shattered. What was once a place of joy and community has turned into a zone of fear, with bombings that never cease and the constant struggle to secure basic necessities like food and clean water.
We are weary, and the daily struggle to survive in this war-torn reality has taken a heavy toll on us. The place that once gave us comfort and hope now feels dangerous and uncertain, and I worry about what the future holds for my children.
After much painful reflection, my family and I have made the heart-wrenching decision to leave Gaza in search of safety and a chance to rebuild our lives. We are trying to raise $40,000 to escape the war and cover our living expenses abroad for one year, giving us the time we need to find stability and start anew. 🕊️
Leaving our beloved home, the place where we were born and raised, is not a decision we take lightly. But for the sake of our children and the hope of a safer, brighter future, we must take this step. 😔
We humbly ask for your support. Any contribution, no matter how small, will bring us closer to our goal and help us begin the journey toward safety and a new life. 🙏
Thank you for your kindness, understanding, and generosity. 🌹
I literally taught myself how to play minesweeper instead of doing my fucking work that I’ve been putting off for like 2 weeks.
