You make me reminded of that phase some of us the writers had back in 2018-2019 where we finally snapped with the fact that papyrus was treated like an innocent child and we did nothing but actually make papyrus complex along with Underswap Sans as well. God, again, you make me want to write for this fandom again and I'm thinking back on my ideas

I want to tell Mr. Himaruya something, although he may never read this message.
I think Himaruya-san still does not fully realize how much impact his creation had on the world. Thousands of thousands of people have grown on hetalia, reading about countries which are located so far away it is simply impossible to know the real state of affairs. It's a common phenomenon - to not know almost anything about people who are literally on the other side of Earth - and to rely on your local information sources about them. Especially if it's the start of a new millennium, when the Internet is not so developed, and there are not so many ways to talk with actual representatives of a nation. But ignorance is no excuse, especially if you draw a worldwide popular manga, right?
Let me tell you how it looked from my nationalities' perspective - to read about Ukraine and Belarus through the eyes of Japanese people. Because an artist is always a representation, a Face of their nation, especially a popular one. We wondered, is it how Japanese people think about us? Although we were sitting on russian social media back then, even now, you can search хеталія in twitter and scroll through people's opinion, which is pretty much the same. Frustration. Sadness. Confusion.
Ukrainians (and Belarus) have always been respecting Japanese people - because I've never heard ANYTHING bad about them from my side. Never. And Ukrainians are famous for teasing people. And despite everything hetalia told about us, I still see not a single curse from Ukrainians. We were so happy to know Japan is actually on our side and supports us because we always believed this country is unsafe for us - because of hetalia! We believed that Japanese culture fans, those who study Japanese language, those who move to Japan are fools - because we thought Japan is extremely prorussian - because of hetalia! Don't you find it interesting that hetalia stopped being popular about 5-7 years ago and Ukraine started learning Japanese culture deeply than "omae wa mou shindeiru" also about 5-7 years ago? My teacher once said she moved out to China because it seemed more attractive to her than Japan. Can you imagine?
I don't want to curse anyone, especially now, especially after so many years have passed. I want to remind you that making the wrong decision is okay. What is not okay is pretending your wrong choice was right - especially when it still causes harm and pain to others. It's never too late to try to fix it - but what Himaruya-san does right now is pretending nothing happened and completely ignoring our existence. Although, he never really noticed us, didn't he? We are just silly crybaby sex-object russia's sibling nation. Blonde, white and blue-eyed. We do not exist for him outside this costume, which was soooo popular in russia, sooooo popular. Oh, russians do love hetalia because it helped them so much in spreading imperialistic propaganda among young people. It kills my people right now.
And oh, the "I really don't know how Belarus came to be the way she is now....". Well, I know, if it helps you, Himaruya-san. You made Belarus like this because this is how russians describe it - and you relied on russians' opinion. That's it. Simply.
I want to thank Japanese people who help us. I want to thank them for ruining the stereotypes planted by hetalia. For saving us. For making us happy. I am happy.
However, despite actual Japanese people respecting us, I see not a single trace of respect of Ukrainians and Belarus in hetalia. In fact, I see a total disrespect, and it's oh, it still hurts.
This text is just an attempt of expression the whole frustration, which accumulated in me for years.

"wait, i thought you guys were gay." you say, voice coming out a bit stunned upon what you just heard.
"labeling in the year of 2021? so old fashioned." wooyoung huffed as he dismissed you with his hand.
"see woo this is exactly why she thought we were gay." his partner added. san always was the more aware half of him. they were as different from one another as they could come. one was at the bottom of the deepest ocean and the other at the highest peak, but sometimes, shores would find themselves at the foot of the mountains. and for them it worked that way. together they painted a landscape you didn't see in any other relationship quite yet.
"we just asked you to join us in bed and that's the first thing at the top of your head?" san completes as he turns his head to you.
"you better humble yourselves, queers, it's not the first time i've been asked to a threesome." you say throwing a smug smile their way. their heads jolt in surprise.
"oh?" san exclaims.
"you? in a threesome?" wooyoung teases as he points his index finger your way, moving it up and down.
"jeez, i thought you were a nice girl and we were gonna corrupt you with our dirty little minds." the same man added as he smirked your way.
"oh, it wouldn't be my first rodeo." you open up, saying it like you just told them what you ate for breakfast. back when you had breakfast you wouldn't had thought that this is the reason why they would ask you over for coffee and chatting.
"what i'm hearing is that you want to ride one of us." san shrugs as he crosses his arms, looking over to you expectantly with his brow arched. his lover starts laughing as he slaps him on the arm, the high pitched sound resembling a fox's laugh. you feel the blood rush to your face as you direct your attention into the coffee mug, quickly drinking some of the hot liquid.
"oh, look at her, san. she wouldn't be able to take both of us, not even in a thousand years." wooyoung sings into his ear, as he sneers to you. he knew how to play with someone's pride, this wooyoung. you haven't known him for such a long time, but you often found yourself wondering how much joy he actually got from antagonizing everyone around him, including san. and especially san.
"you haven't heard my answer yet." maybe you should think about it more, but you don't. it doesn't sound that bad, having a threesome with them. now that you give yourself permission to look at them in a kind of way you haven't before, due to how you sincerely thought that you weren't on the spectrum of people they would be interested into, you found them not half bad. sure you found them beautiful before, but now you found them attractive. each one of them in different ways.
san was more on the rough side, his hair black and slicked back, his jaw sharp and posture always one that demanded obeying, thanks to his broad shoulders. his narrow eyes always reminded you of a fox, just as wooyoung's laugh did. he emanated power every time he entered a room.
wooyoung, on the other hand, adorned brown hair with blond streaks, parted in the middle, always fluffy. he reminded you of a cat, ever the one to annoy and to do and say as he pleases. he loved the bickering, the foreplay he did on the daily with every little mouse he could get his hands on. and for him, everyone was a mouse.
"so is that a yes?" wooyoung asks as san looks at him, and over to you again.
"depends on when you wanna do it." you reply effortlessly.
"well, what plans do you have for christmas?" san interrogates as he props his arms on the table in between you, leaning forward into it.
"none, really. i'm trapped in between work days so i can't do much." you answer. they make eye contact and give each other a smile. one that told you this has been talked times over again.
"then you won't mind helping me give this one a christmas gift, would you?" the same man asks once again as he signals to his partner with his head. wooyoung laughs like a little kid who has finally got his candy.
you made it clear that you won't buy them anything for christmas and yet you still did. they said your presence would be enough of a gift in itself, but you didn't want to witness the awkwardness of showing up empty handed. so why are you feeling anxious as you stay at their front door? it might be that the nice lingerie you put on makes you feel kind of like a fool, or the shot of tequila you drank home to find some courage went straight to your head. a thousand thoughts go through your mind as you remain frozen. you wanted to do it and it build up so bad in the course of the couple of days that had passed since you talked to them, that you didn't know how much you could take it. you didn't know where the sudden desire came from. maybe it was the lack of sexual intercourse you were having, or maybe the idea was so inciting that it made you crave them more than you ever thought you'd crave two dudes in a relationship.
but why doubt anything now? you've thought it through and through every night before bed since then, and you came to the conclusion that there was nothing wrong with a bit of messing around. even if it was with a couple. even if they were your friends. so you finally pressed the doorbell.
"hell..oh!" san's greeting turns into an exclamation as he opens the door. "you look gorgeous!" he adds as he leans to kiss you on the cheek, right when you enter their home. the dress you decided to wear was one of your nicest ones. if you were to admit, you put more thought than usual into what to wear today than you ever did before when you ever went by theirs, so hearing his words brought joy to your heart.
"come in! dinner's ready." you hear wooyoung's voice from the kitchen. you follow the man's instruction and walk behind san into the dining room as you hand him the gift bag.
"merry christmas! hope it suits your tastes." you say with a laugh as san looks into the bag. wooyoung makes his appearance from the kitchen, untying his apron.
"a gift!" he shrieks as he comes bouncing next to his partner. san pulls out the bottle of, way too expensive, cabernet and smiles. you take in both of their forms, both dressed exquisitely nice in dress shirts and black trousers. san opted for an all black look, shirt buttoned all the way up, a beautiful red velvet tie around his neck. wooyoung on the other hand, a white dress shirt, leaving a few cheeky buttons undone to expose his beautiful shimmery chest. ever the opposites.
"well, this definitely suits my taste." he says, thanking you afterwards. looking into the bag as well, wooyoung pulls the next item faster than you'd ever seen him move. a pair of handcuffs decorated with red fur all around.
"and this definitely suits mine." wooyoung adds as he throws a quick knowing glance to you, and then turns to san, kissing him softly on the lips.
dinner goes on smoothly. the men make flirtatious comments from time to time, at which you respond greatly, to your own surprise. but as wooyoung gets up to clean the table half an hour later after eating dessert, you're taken by surprise when san leans forward into your side, placing a hand on your exposed thigh, slightly supporting himself as his mouth comes to level with your ear. he brushes the hair that frames your face, warm fingers grazing slowly along the skin of your neck.
"you didn't hear it from me, but wooyoung kind of wants us to put on a show for when he comes back." he whispers into your ear on a seductively low tone. you get shivers along your spine at the thought of it, your pussy already clenching around the nothingness presented before it. maybe it's the arousal, or the wine that you gifted to the pair that ended down everyone's throats, but you find yourself reacting upon the sudden piece of courage that you feel and you climb into san's lap.
"then we should put on a good show, right?" san nods and pulls you closer as he kisses you with fervour. the thought that wooyoung could come in at any time and find you two this way makes a pool in between your legs as you start rubbing yourself on san's thigh. his hands find a hold of your ass, slowly pulling up the dress you chose for the night.
"i'll be the one fucking you tonight, darling." he says close to your ear as he drags you along the length of his muscular thigh. "but you'll have to take care of my pretty boyfriend in other ways." san adds, mouth going straight for the exposed skin of your neck, softly biting marks and kissing along the way to your chest. a moan escapes your lips as tension starts to float around the room, encapturing the both of you in its spell.
"let's take this to the room, shall we?" san asks but gives you no time to answer as he rises from his seat with you still glued to him. you cross your legs behind his waist as he holds you steadily, walking through the hall that seems to have grown hotter. his nails on your exposed thighs dig deep into your flesh, making sure to leave marks for you to relive the things you're going to do for at least a few days after today.
san gently lays you on the bed, remaining on top of you for a few seconds before dragging his body off you. he lifts up your dress, helping you get it off your body. san's soft fingers brush on your skin tormentingly slow, taking their time on the soft skin of your breasts, and the curves of your hips. he studies your lingerie with hunger in his beautiful small eyes.
"he's gonna love your set. might ask you to borrow it for himself." san says as he pinches one of your nipple through the black lace. you squint and mentally laugh at his remarks. he kisses you again, massaging your breasts, his other hand traveling up on the inside of your thigh. he cups your clothed core smirking against your lips. he moves your panties to the side and gathers your slickness on his middle finger and you shudder at the sensation.
"and we were thinking we're going to be the ones excited." san whisper as he retreats his finger from you and sucks it hungrily. you stand in awe watching his action, one that makes him a hundred times hotter, and you a hundred times wetter. he smiles seeing you as you bite your lip, kissing you sloppily once again so you can taste yourself on his tongue. your taste buds are satisfied at how you taste even better in his mouth. he spins you to lay flat on your stomach and you immediately position your ass up for him. he takes his place behind you and you hear his belt unbuckle, and him unzipping his pants. san puts on a condom and is quick to prod his erect member at your entrance. you hiss in pleasure when he slowly slides it in, not making any abrupt movement.
"god, you're so tight." he groans out, pulling you slowly towards him by your waist. you accommodate his girth into your warmness, thinking of how he sure is bigger than you ever imagined. his strokes begin to build a pace, finding you moaning under him when his cock brushes against your sweet spot. you bury your head deep within the mattress as he fucks you faster, fists crumpling the sheet underneath and breath as rasped as it could be from all the moaning.
"look who decided to show up." you hear from behind as your hair is softly pulled up by the man fucking you, removing your head from its hide. your gaze meets wooyoung's and you maintain eye contact for a moment. as you drag your eyes down his body you're surprised to see how he was stroking himself slowly, his dick already hard as it could get. your pussy instantly clenches around san, wooyoung showing a perverted grin as he catches your gaze linger on his cock for a second too long. he starts moving from the door frame towards the bed with cat-like motions, slowly ridding himself of his clothes.
"aw, you got all dolled up just for us." wooyoung said as he hooked his finger on the lace of your bra, pulling it aside to reveal your nipple. he pinches it in between his fingers and laughs as you hiss out to his action.
he climbs the bed and positions himself in front of you, taking notice quickly, you rise to fully support your weight on your arms, now being fucked doggy style by the man behind you. you direct your attention to wooyoung as he cups your soft cheek.
"would you suck me off, doll?" you couldn't say no even if you tried. so you wrap one of your hands around the base of wooyoung's cock and pump it a few times, brushing your thumb against his tip every time you reach it. you slowly take him into your mouth, starting to bob your head as his fingers get lost in your hair, pulling your mouth further down his length. you gag when san's thrusts from behind you make wooyoung's dick come in contact with the back of your throat. you start to moan around wooyoung's length as san adventures even deeper inside you, making your insides stir up every time his pelvis smacks against your ass. the sounds now are completely out of a porn, you and wooyoung moan and san grunts loudly in between swear words.
"i think we could make some good use of your gift." woo says as he swings the arm bracelets in front of you. "would you do the honors, baby?" he adds handing them to san, who doesn't hesitate even for a second as he takes your hands and places them on your back, skillfully securing them on your wrists. he holds you suspended by the chain connecting the two cuffs, and you feel your tits bouncing as san wrecks you from behind, and wooyoung from the front.
"look at how she's being a good slut just for us, woo." san says from behind, and all you can do is moan with your mouth stuffed as you hear the words. words that makes your walls clench around san once again, and while he fucks into you faster, you feel your orgasm starting to build up. "fuck, i wish you knew how tight she is. she's almost got me cumming." he completes as he rocks his hips into you desperately.
"i'm close too, baby." wooyoung replies to his lover as he moves your head faster on his cock. "should we let her cum as well, or should we make her beg for it?" he further asks him. the pressure on your wrists increases as san pulls you towards him, making your back arch even more. you feel a pleasant pain in your shoulders as he keeps you in the position.
"let's give her what she deserves, she's taking us both so well." talking as if you weren't there, san smacks your ass right after finishing his sentence, as if to bring you back to reality. his hand finds a hold of your clit and you almost scream around wooyoung's cock when he starts rubbing fast circles on your sensitive bud. if he kept going like this, you couldn't last for much longer.
"i wanna cum in your mouth." wooyoung said as he pulled you off of him. can i? was the thing he was going to say next, but he didn't need to ask anymore as you violently started to nod, all your senses being a captive to pleasure, especially your common sense. you open up your mouth, giving kitten licks to his tip as he starts to rub himself off. he cums in a few seconds, painting your mouth and cheeks with hot strands of his white seed. you feel him shuddering before you and look up to him. his head is thrown back, one hand on his cock and one on your head.
"you're such a pretty little cumslut." he says, gathering everything that's on your face, to push it into your mouth with his thumb. " don't swallow." he adds and you're not sure your fuzzy brain understands him as you feel the knot in your tummy quickly coming to its release. and just as you open your mouth, moaning loudly upon your release around san's cock, wooyoung bends down and takes your mouth into his. swirling his tongue along yours, gathering everything you hold in your wet cavern into his, mixing it with his spit, as well as yours. the gesture alone is so hot that it makes the orgasm you have ten times more ravishing, none of the men you've been with before has done that with you.
san doesn't stop fucking you until a few seconds later, your walls tightening around him so much that they milk him dry inside the condom as he settles deep inside you groaning. you're not sure you'll ever feel any other man the same way you've felt san tonight, filling up every single inch of your aching pussy.
you fall down, arms still held together, as you turn on your back to look at the men. they both look at you contently before doing, what to this point is (and you think will always be), the hottest thing you'll ever witness. san places his hand on wooyoung's jaw as they start kissing passionately, cum sliding down their chins from the corners of their mouth. their tongues switch fields from one mouth to another as they dance around.
"oh my god," you whisper to yourself as they pull apart, strings of cum mixed with saliva still connecting their mouths. you feel your core softening once again upon the sight. they turn your attention to you and laugh quietly as they position themselves on each side of you, but not before san removes your handcuffs. he places a hand on your thigh, tapping it proudly, telling you "you did good" and wooyoung only nuzzles his head in between your chest and arm, throwing one leg against yours, pulling himself closer. you look down and realize that you're the only one who has any pieces of clothing on, the lingerie held on proudly through the night. wooyoung seems to read your thoughts as he looks up to you.
"you've got to let me borrow this sometime." he says signaling to your lace set. you and san laugh, a quiet i told you so, floating through the air. it feels good, this moment. it's not awkward or out of place. it's just as if it's meant to be and you're sure you're never going to forgive this christmas.
"oh, after tonight, trust me, i'll give it to you for free." you coo.
"merry fucking christmas!" san exclaims on a playful tone, and you all start laughing in the hot air that settles in the room.
it was a merry fucking christmas indeed.

[Image Description: An Undertale chat box that has “WHY FANS LOVE UNDERTALE” at its center. Next to it are a line chart and an Egg from the Dating Hub on its left, and a CRIME measurer (also from the Dating Hub) on its right. End I.D.]
Tumblr media
[Image Description: a pie chart titled, “LEVEL OF LOVE FOR UNDERTALE.” The textbox on the top right reads, “On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the least and 10 being the highest, how much do fans enjoy Undertale?” From the top going clockwise, 12 or 0% chose 5 and below; 23 or 1% chose 6; 98, or 4%, chose 7; 325, or 12%, chose 8; 529, or 20%, chose 9; and 1664, or 63%, chose 10. End I.D.]
It’s clear from all of the data analyzed so far that fans who took the time to answer our survey love Undertale. It is unlikely that they would have taken the time to answer so many questions if they had not, and even less likely that they would have come across our survey in the first place. Naturally, it comes as no surprise that 63% of our responders gave their love for Undertale a score of ten out of ten. 95% gave their love for Undertale a score of eight or higher, and only 12 responders responded with five or below, a number so small that their responses had to be lumped together to be visible on the pie chart. Of those, only 3 responders gave their love for Undertale a score of 1, and based on those responders’ other answers, it is likely that they were only intending to troll. We are very fortunate that the vast majority of responders took the survey seriously, enough so that responses like this are barely a blip in the data.
Now, for our final analysis post of the event, we will delve into the reasons that fans love Undertale so dearly.
(Essay and highlights under the cut.)
There have been countless essays on the impact that Undertale has had on people’s lives. I can hardly add more on the subject than what has already been said, but I hope this summary can provide a brief overview of what stood out among the over two thousand answers given in response to this survey. That said, due to the sheer volume of answers, I could not read every single one in depth—however, I did skim all of them, and some that stood out or were representative of several responses have been highlighted below. If you would like to see what every fan who consented to share their response had to say, you may view the full list of responses here. Note that these responses have not been edited in any way. This document may take a long time to load, as it is over 100 pages long.
(Warnings for mentions of suicidal thoughts in the following essay.)
Several responders loved the theme of choices mattering in Undertale. Whether people played the pacifist, merciless, or neutral routes, they enjoyed how the game reacted to their actions. For some, it even made them consider their own morality. One touching response explained the impact that the theme of mercy made on them. “I realized that Mercy isn't something that's given to those who deserve it. Flowey didn't deserve it. I don't deserve it myself. Shoot, we ALL need Mercy in our lives.” Many fans left similar comments about how the themes of Undertale made them better people.
Undertale changed how its fans treat others, and it also changed how fans treat themselves. The theme of staying determined and the messages of hope in the game were a light to a very large portion of fans. I cannot list all of the fans who said that Undertale helped them out of a dark place, or that they would not be alive if not for Undertale. “DETERMINATION became a metaphor for not killing myself at a really rough time in my life and I’ll always cherish that. Undertale isn’t afraid to go to really dark places but at the same time holds on so tight to its hope.”
Undertale brought fans together in unexpected ways. Some said they met friends or significant others through the fandom. “I wouldn't have met my now husband without Undertale,” one fan said. A different fan who is non-native English speaking mentioned that the game and the fan community helped them to learn English.
It would be impossible to discuss Undertale without mentioning the fan community. Whether for good or bad, many responders mentioned the fandom in their responses. Overall the feelings towards the fandom seem positive, though many made references to “toxic” parts of the fandom without specifying which parts they consider toxic. Others rejected the idea of toxicity in fandom. One response said: “[SLAMS FIST ON DESK] I KNOW MOST PEOPLE SAY THE FANDOM IS TOXIC AND CRINGE OR WHATEVER BUT OH MY GOD. The Undertale fandom, both the UTMV and the actual UT fandom, has been so much fun to be a part of. I've met countless friends because of our shared interest in something related to the game! The art people create can be breathtaking and so inspirational, and the fanfics are so so good!! I've seen people write incredible things for this fandom and it's what made me continue writing!”
One thing that makes the Undertale fandom unique is the way it embraces various AUs. Some fans are tired of AU content, but the majority of responses show a love for the creativity behind AUs. “Roll your eyes at the 50th AU Sans all you want, it's encouraging people to step outside the boundaries of fanart and pushing people to make their own ideas! I mean, hell, it was how I gained the confidence to start making my own original content.” The lack of a judgemental atmosphere seems present in the AU community, according to the responses we saw. There is an interesting balance between AU and canon (sometimes referred to as “classic”) content that another responder pointed out: “The fandom helped keep the game alive all these years, with all of its AUs. Although personally, I always enjoyed AUs that kept characters as close to the classic material as possible (dancetale, outertale) I do appreciate the creativity of the fandom. They almost created entirely new stories with new characters of their own! If it weren't for those people, the Undertale fandom would have probably not been as active as it is now. I do feel like we're getting a resurgence of classic content now too! (In 2021)”
Regardless of the many AUs the fandom has created over the years, the original game of Undertale still feels like home for many fans. They wished they could reclaim the feeling of playing the game again for the first time, but even though we can’t reset time in real life, there is still a special feeling for fans each time they play Undertale. One fan said, “Even the best fics I've read can't capture that feeling of nostalgia/almost-"coming home" that comes with hearing the music and talking to the characters.” This feeling is one that can be cherished time and time again. In the words of another responder: “It always feels welcoming like home or like comfort food that I never grow tired of no matter how many times I go to it.” Others pointed out the strength of the found family trope in Undertale, which likely contributes to this feeling of “home” as well.
As mentioned briefly earlier, the music is part of what makes Undertale feel like home for fans. Even when responses focused on other aspects of the game, many would throw in a comment about the soundtrack at the end. One comment focused on the music said “IT'S SO GOOD like I will literally go through the entire thing over and over and not be bored with it. It makes my monkey brain so happy you have no idea.” Like with the game itself, the music has incredible replay value, an amazing feat considering most of the tracks use the same few motifs. “I think what I like the most about Undertale is how the music attaches you to the story,” another responder said. “They're simple melodies that stick with you throughout the whole game, and they can remind you of both good and bad times.”
If the music sticks with fans in their hearts, then the game’s lore sticks with fans in their minds. Even six years after the release of Undertale, fans are still creating new theories and digging up new secrets. The way the game breaks the fourth wall in particular intrigued many fans and has stuck out through all these years. The awareness that the game shows for the RPG genre makes it memorable. The game plays with the player’s expectations and turns them on their heads, all while reminding the player that they’re in a game. There are few other games that do this on such a large scale, so it’s no surprise that fans cite this as one of their favorite things about Undertale.
Lastly, the LGBT+ representation in Undertale has been a huge draw for fans. Especially in 2015, the sheer volume of non-cishet characters was unprecedented, as one fan pointed out: “It's practically unheard of to see so MANY from just one source, especially during its heyday in 2015-16. Hell, you can't even GET the true pacifist ending without helping two gay couples hook up. It's really nice to see all of them being accepted for who they are and not judged for their sexuality or gender, at least in-canon.” The LGBT+ cast including Frisk, Chara, Napstablook, Monster Kid, Mettaton, Alphys, and Undyne each connected with fans in unique ways. It’s clear how important this is from responses such as: “There are canon nonbinary characters 🥺. i have never seen representation of myself before.” “It made me gay and trans so thanks for that.”
Once again I am overwhelmed with just how much there is to say about Undertale. One responder really understood when they compared Undertale to an iceberg, explaining that there are so many layers to the game that there is something for everyone: “everyone can find something to enjoy in the lore/game regardless of what kind of fan they are! Being able to appeal to various types of fans—from simple happy shipper people to deep dive lorediggers—is the mark of the coolest games!” I would have to agree with them.
It’s been six years, and despite everything, it’s still you. Thank you for reading, participating in this survey, and above all, staying determined.
Highlights:
DETERMINATION became a metaphor for not killing myself at a really rough time in my life and I’ll always cherish that. Undertale isn’t afraid to go to really dark places but at the same time holds on so tight to its hope.
I think the coolest thing was having the opportunity to watch the AU community grow from its bare roots. It's nearly insane how big and complex it's gotten, unlike anything I'd ever seen before. Roll your eyes at the 50th AU Sans all you want, it's encouraging people to step outside the boundaries of fanart and pushing people to make their own ideas! I mean, hell, it was how I gained the confidence to start making my own original content.
i love how the lgbt rep is so naturalized... there are just gay people! and its nobodys business!
The music is my go to answer, but what I really really REALLY love is how the minor characters have so much personality to them when you talk to them. They aren't incredibly important to the overall story, but they're all so likeable and diverse that you just can't help but like them immediately!
I think it was the first videogame I have played that broke the fourth wall that much. Of course there has been other videogames that broke it but just for one or two tongue-in-cheek jokes. The guilt of killing mama goat was also something intense as well that I appreciated as an experience and that I didn't think a videogame could cause on someone.
I love how no character can be seen as completely bad! Everyone builds up Asgore as some horrible villain, but he turns out to be a 'fuzzy pushover' who's broken and just wants his family back by the time you meet him. Then you think Flowey's an irredeemable killer who engineered the suffering of the monsters across many timelines, and he is... but he also used to be the kind and beloved Prince Asriel Dreemurr, traumatized by his death and subsequent rebirth, projecting his best friend onto you.
The fact that choices matter in the game. Your first playthrough and getting the golden ending for the first time. I can never replicate those feelings again, wish I could erase my memories and replay the game from the start.
I wouldn't have met my now husband without Undertale.
(Toxic parts of the fandom aside) The community is possibly one of the kindest I've ever met. Cringe culture is completely dead, and I feel like I can be myself. I felt a very close connection to many of the characters, and I loved consuming content about them when I was in a rough patch in my life.
just everything, the whole game has just impacted my life so much. i know it sounds really lame, but when the game first came out, i would purposely put my hands in my pockets and sway slightly, like sans' idle animation. of course i dont do that anymore haha, but undertale still really impacts me to this day, and i wouldnt have it any other way :)
it made me gay and trans so thanks for that
I realized that Mercy isn't something that's given to those who deserve it. Flowey didn't deserve it. I don't deserve it myself. Shoot, we ALL need Mercy in our lives.
The thing I love most about Undertale is no matter how many times I play or watch a playthrough it always makes me genuinely happy. It always feels welcoming like home or like comfort food that I never grow tired of no matter how many times I go to it. Toriel still makes me feel all warm and cozy in her home, the Skelebros always make me laugh, and I still cry on the inside watching Frisk comforting Asriel. And on the flip side the No Mercy run still invokes the negative emotions in me as well. In short Undertale just feels like a second home to me and I always wish I could stay.
The reader inserts are my favorite way to decompress after a hard day
I think Undertale helped me discover my love for 8-bit games, and made me realize how IMPORTANT music is in video games.
the worldbuilding and character design are my favorite parts of the main game apart from the music! I’m also a huge fan of the random AU music- not for like underswap or underfell i like the stuff where someone makes a megalovania for a random au where gru from despicable me replaces sans as the character. i think its funny
Just... the vibe, honestly? Even the best fics I've read can't capture that feeling of nostalgia/almost-"coming home" that comes with hearing the music and talking to the characters.
there are canon nonbinary characters 🥺. i have never seen representation of myself before.
[SLAMS FIST ON DESK] I KNOW MOST PEOPLE SAY THE FANDOM IS TOXIC AND CRINGE OR WHATEVER BUT OH MY GOD. The Undertale fandom, both the UTMV and the actual UT fandom, has been so much fun to be a part of. I've met countless friends because of our shared interest in something related to the game! The art people create can be breathtaking and so inspirational, and the fanfics are so so good!! I've seen people write incredible things for this fandom and it's what made me continue writing!
There's a scene where Frisk (the player) is going towards what is presumably going to be their death. They will fight Asgore and he will use their human soul to break the barrier and free his people. The music, despite the player's impending doom, is... triumphant. You are not the triumphant one here, and yet, the score invites you to experience the monsters' joy and happiness as they tell you the tale of their subjugation. The monsters are going to be free. This is their victory, but they don't hate you or want you to die. They're just... happy. That scene has always struck me very deeply. I feel it represents the best parts of Undertale.
I loved how well thought out the Geno route was. It really made me feel like I was doing something horrible, and the characters were very obviously reacting to dire circumstances.
I dunno? I like Undertale for it's characters, story, music, secrets and many more. I am not good with Headcanons but I also like the neutral endings and how different they can depending on who you spare and kill
I was very bad at english before, i thought i couldn't progress because i was very shy and not confident. But my sibling and i wanted to have the best experience with this game so we wanted to play it in english. It's this game and the fandom which helped me to make huge progress in english !
THE SOUNDTRACK. IT'S SO GOOD like I will literally go through the entire thing over and over and not be bored with it. It makes my monkey brain so happy you have no idea.
to avoid writing an essay i will say one word. Mettaton
It is like Toby specifically made the games to fit the iceberg meme and it's awesome, everyone can find something to enjoy in the lore/game regardless of what kind of fan they are! Being able to appeal to various types of fans - from simple happy shipper people to deep dive lorediggers is the mark of the coolest games!
I love almost everything about Undertale as a game on its own. The music, the art and especially the characters and how they interact. They made me feel at home. Undertale means a huge amount to me. (I even got a tattoo of the castle when you and MK walk together!) The fandom helped keep the game alive all these years, with all of its AUs. Although personally, I always enjoyed AUs that kept characters as close to the classic material as possible (dancetale, outertale) I do appreciate the creativity of the fandom. They almost created entirely new stories with new characters of their own! If it weren't for those people, the Undertake fandom would have probably not been as active as it is now. I do feel like we're getting a resurgence of classic content now too! (In 2021)
the mystery. toby fox refused to give answers to anything and i think thats very sexy of him.
I just feel guilty for liking it so much when I'm in my 30's. But I recently got diagnosed with ASD, so I guess it explains things a bit. Many ppl consider Papyrus to be neurodivergent, and some adult fans are too, so seeing that makes me feel a bit better.
i think about "Despite everything, it's still you" everyday of my life.
I like how it's just as funny as it can be serious. All routes are this way. I laughed as much as I cried when I played the Pacifist route and then once I opened the game again and Flowey was telling me to let them be happy, I immediately turned off the game. I somehow felt bad.
The Found Family Trope
The True Pacifist Ending is just...man. And the fanworks about saving everyone even when the game doesn't let you? MANNNNNN
I think what I like the most about Undertale is how the music attaches you to the story. They're simple melodies that stick with you throughout the whole game, and they can remind you of both good and bad times.
there's honestly a LOT to love about this game, but i think one of my favorite things about it is just how many lgbt+ characters there are??? i can think of alphys, undyne, frisk, chara, mettaton, napstablook, monster kid, asgore, mad mew mew, the dress lion, the royal guards, and arguably even papyrus off of the top of my head, but im sure i'm forgetting a few from just undertale alone (there's even MORE in deltarune)!! it's practically unheard of to see so MANY from just one source, especially during its heyday in 2015-16. hell, you can't even GET the true pacifist ending without helping two gay couples hook up. it's really nice to see all of them being accepted for who they are and not judged for their sexuality or gender, at least in-canon.

Aaaaaa Thank You so much for the looooooooooooong wait! I was too occupied and writer's block makes me tired more than ever 😭. Thank you so much for the request @ashavazesa ❤❤❤❤❤
A/N: I don't really take ALL Southeast Asia countries in this as I'm not really familiar with it. If you have questions regarding the culture, you may PM me or comment here ❤. Or you may google it, especially Butod 😏.
Lords x Southeast Asia Culture
Nobunaga - Hungry Ghost Festival (Malaysia / Singapore)
-It is a festival to honor the dead and so the gate from hell is opened.
-Mitsuhide: Most probably when the gate from hell is open, there will be Hideyoshi, practically running here and there upon his arrival ( ͡^ ͜ʖ ͡^).
-Masamune: Exactly. With the red carpet and rose petals. Heh.
-Hideyoshi: ಠ_ಠ.... Still- Nobunaga-sama's presence itself is majestic, so I have to agree with both of you *cough*
-Mitsunari: But I don't understand.. Hideyoshi-sama is kind, why would he be in hell (´;д;`)?
-Hideyoshi: Now, now, Mitsunari. Not everyone will go to heaven easily.
-Mitsuhide: Indeed. One of the main reasons why he goes to hell is because he sister-zoned every maiden in the world.
-Hideyoshi: H E Y ( ☉д⊙)!
-Back to Nobunaga: I demand my offering to be a pack of armies, thousands of konpeitos, and MC's candid pictures 😏😏😏😏.
-Shingen: How indecent. To hell with you 😒.
-Kennyo: Go somewhere else, don't take my place 😒.
-Nobunaga: Excuse me? Hell would not be yours as I am the Demon King
-Kennyo: Excuse you 😒. My sin is bigger than yours.
-MC: Is it me or is this a White Girls Sengoku Version ಠ_ಠ?
-Ieyasu: ...Why would anyone want to fight over hell in the first place =_=?
Hideyoshi - Everyone is Addressed as Boss / Uncle / Aunty (Malaysia)
-So he went to a restaurant..
-"Boss. What do you want to order?"
-He look left. And right.
-"Eh Boss. You want to order or not?"
-"Huh? M-me??"
-Then he went to a public place, and his wallet fell from his pocket,
-"Uncle. Excuse me."
-Uncle-- WHAT- He is not THAT OLD-- "Wh- Wha??"
-"Aiya Uncle. Your wallet. Later people take your money how?"
-"Uh--" What kind of language is that anyway??
-Sasuke: If you are wondering what kind of language they speak, it is called as 'Manglish', Hideyoshi-san.
-Hideyoshi: Ma- Ma what?
-Sasuke: Manglish. Malaysian + English casual ways of talking to someone.
-Random person: Eh Boss, excuse me. Do you want to enter or not? If not please move lah! You are blocking the door!
-Hideyoshi: ........*Stressed 101*
Masamune - Butod (Sago Grub) (Malaysia - Sabah)
-Le butod: *Wiggle wiggle wiggle* OwO
-And MC: *FAINTS*
-"So this is a.. Grub from sago tree, you say? And it is recommended to be eaten raw."
-"It looks like MC when she was struggling to get away from my grip when I try to kiss her."
-MC, who has fainted, woke up "Excuse me?? Are you saying that I am-"
-Butod: *Wiggle Wiggle on Masamune's Palm* OwO
-MC: *gasssppp* 😱😱😱😱 YOU..! DON'T TOUCH ME WITH THAT HAND TONIGHT ˚‧º·(˚ ˃̣̣̥A˂̣̣̥ )‧º·˚!
-Masamune: Eeeeh but why? *Pulls its head and eat it raw* Hmm.. Taste like chicken.
-MC: .....*Takes a bottle of sake and shove it into his mouth* Wash it down with this! WASH IT WITH T H I S!
-Masamune: MMMMF 😵😵😵😵!!
Mitsuhide - Chinese New Year Celebrations (Malaysia / Singapore)
-He was offered with lots of CNY treats and of course, he ate it without refusing it.
-Only to get the bewildered reactions from the people around him when he mixed the rice + fish + dumplings + sweet rice balls + spring rolls + glutinous rice cake in one bowl and eat it like nobody's business.
-Hideyoshi: Even if you can't taste it, don't eat it in that way ( ☉д⊙)!!
-"Why Hideyoshi? This foods represents luck, you see. I need this luck so I can always escape from your endless 'love' ( ͡^ ͜ʖ ͡^)."
-Learned about Ang Pow.
-"So you will give away money if you are married, and will receive it if you are not married. I see..."
-MC: What's wrong, Mitsuhide?
-"Hmm? Oh, I was just concerned about Hideyoshi. Because he will give away Ang Pows throughout his life." *Shakes his head* "That's what he gets when he sister-zoned everyone."
-Hideyoshi: ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ.....
Ieyasu - Sambal (Hot Relish made with veggies / fruits and spices) (Indonesia)
-At first he was skeptical.
-Until he put some in his dish.
-Cues Ieyasu hugging the Sambal Jar.
-Growls when Masamune said "Can I have a look what they put inside-- Hey, hey, I said I want to have a look, not that I will eat it, lad. Calm down."
-Nobunaga, the usual demon on your shoulder: It's that precious, hmm? So you'd rather choose that than MC?
-MC: Please don't make me an option between food, Nobunaga ಠ_ಠ.
-Mitsuhide: Or maybe.. You can eat her by pouring all over her ( ͡^ ͜ʖ ͡^)?
-MC: I will become a living swollen red bell pepper, no thanks (눈‸눈).
Mitsunari - Vietnam and the amount of motorcyclists on the road (Vietnam)
-The gangs be all flustered with their surroundings, especially Hideyoshi.
-"Stay close, all of you! It's dangerous!"
-Masamune & Mitsuhide: Yes mom ( ͡^ ͜ʖ ͡^)~
-Hideyoshi: Who is your MOM ( ☉д⊙)??
-Sasuke: It's alright, they say you can cross it casually as they will automatically avoid you.
-Hideyoshi: Impossible, isn't it dangerous? Besides, it's too close one after another!
-Sasuke: Here, let me give you an example. *Gives Mitsunari a book and whispered "You may cross now."*
-Our pure angel be like "O3O ooooh~~" And there he goes, walking straight ahead, with head buried in a book.
-Meanwhile, Hideyoshi: *Were pulled by both Masa and Mitsuhide* GAHH LET GO OF ME! MITSUNARIIIII \(Q A Q)/!!!! *GASP* NOOO NOBUNAGA-SAMA DON'T CROSS THE ROAD WHILE EATING YOUR KONPEITOOO!!!
-And Ieyasu, who has been watching Mitsunari who crossed the road safely to the other side: TCH. There's no one that hit him (•ˋ _ ˊ•).
Kenshin: 5 People on one Motorcycle (Indonesia)
-The first thing that he ask Sasuke was...
-"What is that?"
-Sasuke: Oh, as you can see, Kenshin-sama. Some people from a poor family will ride their motorcycle altogether as one. And so,.. Kenshin-sama?
-"Bringing the motorcycle back to the past would cause unnecessary scene, but an idea of 5 people in one ride is not bad. Hm."
-"Imagine, when you go to the battlefield, with 5 people in one horse, you can kill 5 people at one time."
-"Also, if they bring sake supplies, and 1 person hold one sake each, and there's 10 horses, I would've get 500 bottles in an hour."
-Them: ........
-Sasuke: Can't do, Kenshin-sama. Please pity our horse and if you work here, in this era, please don't be a math teacher. You will give a bad example in your class.
-Kenshin: Don't stop what I want to do, Sasuke (눈‸눈). Fine. Let's change that 5 person into me, and the killed people to Shingen instead. So it will be 5 of me, killing Shingen in one strike.
-Shingen: Psssh. If I were you, there will be 5 of me on one horse, so all of us can kiss MC in one go 😏✨✨✨.
-Yukimura: PLEASE STOP GAH MY BRAIN @A@
Shingen - Thailands... and their Kathoey (Thailand)
-Welp. His eyebrows wouldn't stop wiggling here and there to every pretty woman that he spotted.
-'Woman'. Heh.
-Sasuke about to warn him but Kenshin hold him back.
-"Let's teach him a lesson." He said. "It will be interesting." He said.
-And so they go to one place for dinner, when they were surrounded by a bunch of pretty women.
-"Hey handsome~~ wanna have fun with us?"
-Yukimura: Eh- uh- eh- I- I- o//////o
-"Oh come on~~~ *grope*"
-Yukimura: *Genuine Girlish Voice* KYAAAAAAAAA!!! *Fainted with foams*
-Shingen: Now, now, you girls are pretty attempting, but we need to fill our empty stomachs first, you see?
-He was occupied in talking to the girls when Sasuke whispered something to one of them without him realizing it. Then the girl went to Shingen's side, hugging his arm, "Please~ have fun with us~~ I will give you a reward if you say 'Yes'~"
-Shingen, playing along: Oooh? What would that be?
-Le girl, changing her voice into a manly one, "A lick of my lollipop, bro."
-And he fainted next to Yukimura. With foams in his mouth too.
Yukimura - Bali and their.... 'Souvenirs' (Indonesia)
-The first thing that came out from his mouth when he arrived at Bali is "Wh- wh- wh- r-romantic island?? Wh- who would show their intimacy in public--"
-*Shriek to a statue with a peculiar s*x position*
-*Shriek to almost everything*
-*Got stuck in one place until Sasuke had to pulled him out from the shop*
-Sasuke: Forgive me, bro. It's Shingen-sama's idea to enter this shop. It's normal for you to be culture shocked as one of their famous souvenirs is wee wee keychains (´・д・`).
-"Don't say that casually OAO!"
-MC, takes one wee wee display and called out for him, "Yukimura~ come here for a sec. Look! Your wee wee (✿❛◡❛)!"
-"MMMMMCCCCCC ୧( ಠ////Д////ಠ )୨!!!!"
-Also Yukimura: *Gasp* This shop sells your kind! *Points at the restaurant that displays Rolling Pig*
-Scene of Yukimura got slapped by MC unfolds.
Sasuke - Sarawak's Blowpipe (Malaysia - Sarawak)
-Tour guide: One of the ethnicities in Sarawak is Iban people. They are known to hunt their prey with a blowpipe, which contained with a poison-coated needle.
-Sasuke: Oooh. *looks at the blowpipe* It's like detective conan but a poisoned needle ones (´・д・`)✨✨✨
-Tour guide:
-Others:
-Tour guide: Would you like to give a try?
-Sasuke: Yes please (´・д・`)✨✨✨ which target should I shoot it with?
-Tour guide: The balloon, next to the pole in front of you ☺.
-Sasuke: Okay. *Takes a deep breath*
-Kenshin:.......*monotonous voice* Ah, a mosquito. *Kicks Shingen to make him land in front of Sasuke*
-Shingen: H-Hey-- OAO
-Sasuke: Mmf- *Instantly pushed the pipe to shoot something else*
-*Stab*
-Mitsunari who happens to pass by: Hmm? Oh my, I don't remember this book has a needle attached to it (ㆁᴗㆁ✿).
-Other tour members: EEEEEKKKK 😱😱😱
-Ieyasu who also happens to be not to far from the group: Tch. Books from the future must not to be underestimated ಠ_ಠ. It's too thick.

FTTTO Chapter 4
Authors Note: So this chapter switches point of view a lot. Also this one is very, very, extremely long. Well a little hyperbole never killed anyone, all that aside enjoy.
Chapter 4:Now This is Weird
Mike’s POV:
I woke up before the normal, why? I couldn’t tell you. That’s just what my body wanted to do. Except it didn’t feel like I was in me bed. So I slow got up and rubbed my eyes so that I could see. But what I did see was not what I expected. I was in a large room, that had a large couch and two big chairs. It also had a very big black box, along with a lot of other expensive looking trinkets. I then looked down to see a bunch of my brothers and my real brother all laid about on the floor. But one caught my eye, Spot Conlon. I thought about maybe waking them up, but then thought better of it, because if I did I would have been soaked for sure. So I looked around the room some more. Examining all the little things that were there. I didn’t touch anything of course, i didn’t know what any of it did and I was a bit afraid to find out. I gave up on getting out of this room a while ago. The exits where blocked of. After a while of looking around I saw that Jack was walking out. When he got up and looked around he looked just as confused as I did when I first woke up. When he finally turned around and saw me he spoke,” Do youse have any idea what’s goin’ on here?”
I just shook my head and replied,” I don’t know, but dere’s no way out. At least not that Ise can find.”
Jack went silent, they way he normally did when he was thinking.
“First the strike, den dis. Can anything good happen to us?” I thought out loud.
“ Hey wes won da strike and youse gotta look on da bright side. No one’s hurt,” Jack assured.
“ I guess you right, but-” I started but jack quickly shushed me.
“Did youse hear dat,” Jack looked very serious when he asked me this.
I gave him a confused look.
“ I keep thinkin’ I’m hearin’ people talkin’ “ Jack said.
I didn’t hear anything, but I just went with it. After a while more and more newsies woke up,and they all asked questions similar to the one that Jack asked me when he first woke up. Once everyone was up Jack stood up on a chair and made a loud whistle to get the boy’s attention.
“Okay. So I know youse all are confused as to why wes all here or whats goin’ on,” Jack stated,” and I am too-”
This caused a small panic to erupt, but I had trust that Jack had a plan.
“But youse can bet dat Ise gonna find a way to get us outta here. Actually, dis seems to be someone's house. So someone's gotta come eventually,” Jack assured the group.
“ Youse guessed right,” said a mysterious voice that came from the part of the room where the exit appeared to be.
We all whipped around to find a group of three. A boy how was tall, skinny,piercing green eyes, and had silver colored hair. Which I didn’t know was possible. THen there was a boy and a girl who looked basically identical. Both having light brown hair that appeared to have some gold strands in it, especially near the end. They both had freckles, but they were more noticeable on the boys. They also both had hazel eyes, which also appeared to have gold in them.
Brooklyn’s POV:
To be honest that was probably the best dramatic entrance I have ever made, and I have made a lot of dramatic entrances. Immediately everyone in the room turned around to face us. Although all their eyes very clearly landed on me. I should have figured, I mean I was wear some rather short pajama shorts and a tank top. Which in their time could be considered naked. Fortunately for the boys Austin started talking taking all the attention of me, because let me tell you, if those boy looked at me any longer, someone was going to get a broken nose.
Austin’s POV:
I noticed that Ali was getting angry, then realized that it was most likely because she was wearing pj’s. This could get real bad real quick, so I decided to step in.
“ So as you could have guessed we are the owners of this house, well they are, I’m just visiting,” I say clearly. I thanked god that that got their attention off of Ali. It was at this point that I noticed Davey and Les. Davey had just lightly hit Les. Like in the way mothers do when their kids are misbehaving. God he was so the mom friend.  He also mumbled something around the lines of stop staring. To this Les retorted,” But shes got no clothes on.”
If looks could kill, Les would be two times over. I was terrified and she wasn’t even mad at me. So once again I stepped in.
“ Well in our time this is considered decent,” I blurted without thinking. I think only Davey caught on to my slip up with ‘our time’ and was about to say something until Albert stepped up and said,” Well then I’d like to see ‘er in whateva’s considered not decent.”
“ Well I’d like to see youse with a broken nose, but we all can’t get what wes wants. Now can wes,” Ali replied while cracking her knuckles and neck. She started slowly walking towards him. But it was obvious that he wasn’t backing down.
“ Whats a little goil like youse gonna be able to do to someone like me,” he taunted.
She continued walking towards him, her anger almost growing. It was at this point that me and Rocky started to sign for him to stop. Of course he didn’t. Now the two were in each others faces, please don’t kill the kid Ali. I know he was being very disrespectful, but you dont’ have to kill him.
“ God it’s a shame I have to watch another man die tonight,” I say remorsefully was I place my head in my hands. But I took it out and saw that some of the other newsies were now getting scared for Alberts safety. I watched Ali and Albert closely, and then I realized why Ali didn’t immediately swing. She was positioning herself, for what.I don't’ know, but it was bound to be really bad for Albert. I know she has taken like a decade of MMA and fighting classes, so she is capable of causing a lot of pain.
Then with in a blink of an eye she spun him around, pinned one arm to his back, and forcefully threw him on the wall. She got right up in his face and told him that this was just a warning and next time he will end up with a broken nose. She then proceded to walk away calmly, as if nothing ever happened. When she returned to her original spot eh found everyone once again staring at her, except Rocky who was just face palming. Once she took notice she this she angerly spat,” What?” but she also said as if nothing had just happened.
“ Why,” Rocco asked clearly distraught,” why are you like this.”
Ali just shrugged in response.
“ You had one job. Take care of them in case they get hostile, not be hostile towards them,” he added.
“ Hey. I my defense, he was disrespectin’ me. I just defended myself,” Ali said in a defensive tone.
“ Okay would anyone like to explain what is going on here and why you said in our time before this how mess happened,” Davey exclaimed while motioning to Albert, who just stood there in a state of shock.
Rocco’s POV:
Well shit. Now we have to explain, to the best of our ability, because Davey just dropped the question. Now or never I guess. Although I would prefer never.
“ Um… okay. So, um, you may or may have been transported into the future, 2017 to be exact, and before you ask. No we don’t know how this happened. Also we know who all of you are because someone made a musical about the newsboy strike of 1899,” I stammer out as fast as I possible could. Thankfully no looked like they got a word of that.
“ Do you mind repeatin’ dat?’ Jack asked.
“ Ok… so… um…,” I stutter,not wanting to say any of that slowly,” so… you-”
Suddenly I was pushed to the floor and Ali stepped up to take my spot and exclaimed,”Okay dis stutterin’ idiot ain’t gettin’ us anywhere. So youse may or may not have been teleproted into da year 2017. Also don’t ask ‘cause wes don’t gotta clue as to who's dis happened”
Everyone jaw was on the floor. “ Wha … but how?” Jack stammered.
“What did I just say,” Ali retorted.
“ Okay your bluntness isn’t helping,” Austin scolded while helping me up.
“ So yeah welcome to the future, I guess,” I added,” I guess since you’ll be staying here with us introductions are necessary. So this right here is my best friend Austin, but we call him Texas,” I say while motioning to Austin. “ And this is my twin sister, the girl of a thousand nicknames-”
“I don’t ‘ave dat many nicknames,” Ali interrupted.
“ As I was saying, my twin sister Brooklyn, or Ally Cat. Ali for short.”
“ Youse named Brooklyn?” Spot asked.
“ Yeah, but please call me Ali. My actual name brings up some… bad memories.”
“ Okay but if youse twins, den why don’t youse both have an accent,” Ike, I think, asked.
“ Our parents split when we were young, I went with our dad to San Fransisco. Which is where we are from now, and Ali stayed in Brooklyn with our mom.”
“ Wait, so your name is Brooklyn and youse from Brooklyn,” Spot asked.
Ali nodded, and Spot gave her a smile.
“ Of course da strong goil with da short tempa is from Brooklyn,” Race snarked, earnign an elbow from Spot.
“ Wait but if you stayed with your mom in Brooklyn, why are you here now?” Les asked. Davey shot him a look to shut up becasue he was being rude.
“ It’s fine. There was some recent events that occured that lead to Ali having to come here and live with me.”
“ Yeah, and comin’ here was da woist day of my life,” Ali whined,” Especially since I had to give up my crown.”
“ Crown?,” Spot questioned.
“ Oh. It seems that I left out one of Ali’s nicknames,” I said before Ali could respond for herself,” she is also known as The Queen of Brooklyn.”
During this ‘grand’ introduction Ali puffed her chest out and held her head up high.
“ But what’s a queen withouta king,” Spot asked with a smirk on his face.
“ A higher title,” Ali responded proudly, shocking Spot.
“ Back to the introductions,” I’m-”
“ Jack Kelly, and the rest of you are Crutchie, Spot, Davey, Les, Romeo, Specs, Mike, Ike, Race, Albert, and Finch,” Austin stated while pointing at each of the newsies when he said there name.
“ How do you know that?” Davey asked very concerned.
“ We now that because a person made a musical about the newsboy strike of 1899, and the people who portrayed you look a lot like you. If that makes sense,” Austin said.
“ It makes sense, but what’s a musical?” Race asked.
“ It’s like a play, but with a lot of singing,”Austin clarified.
“ Alright, enough with da chit chat. I’m starvin’ can wes go get some breakfast?” Ali begged.
“Well it is the time that we normally eat,” I said. It was already 9 in the morning.
“ And the sun rose this mornin’, are we done statin’ facts.” Ali responded sarcastically.
I rolled my eyes and made my way to the kitchen, and motioned for the boy’s to follow.
Ch. 4 End
