does zom ever talk to papyrus? sorta like when you talk to someone’s grave? either mentally or like,, saying it to the air. because i doubt during the apocalypse his dust found a safe place to rest. does asriel do the same? toriel? ..asgore?

i mean. they all lost someone. i doubt it was easy for them to endure and a lot of people cope in ways like that. or maybe in the midst of everything going on, they just,,,,, didn’t have the time to grieve or for it to hit yet.

(would prefer if it was answered by you cuz i wanna peer into your mind,,, i wanna know about this au SO bad,,)

Sans frequently talks with Papyrus when he goes to bed. He’ll whisper under his breath telling him about his day and how all of Papyrus’s friends are doing. He does it at night when he’s about to sleep and doesn’t tell anyone about it. He also projects a lot of Papyrus onto Asriel. Considering Asriel took Papyrus’s jacket and glasses after his death, and both wore some kind of scarf/bandanna, the similarities are too frequent for Sans to really ignore it. In response to this, he ends up acting pretty brotherly with Asriel. He had tried turning to faith, but. It didn’t pan out.

Asriel substitutes Frisk (zombie stage) for Chara and talks to them instead. He’ll sit by their cage for an hour and talk to the, just how he would Chara. When late winter came around, he went back into the old Dreemurr house to find a sweater of Chara’s from their preteen years and struggled to put it on Frisk to keep them warm. He also left behind Chara’s locket after everyone evacuated the area later on in the story.

Toriel turned to faith, and prays every night. Maybe not to a Christian God, but to some higher entity out there. She’ll kneel by her bed with her head hung low and whisper under her breath, indirectly talking to Chara while muttering about getting out alive.

Asgore doesn’t talk about Chara’s death. He chooses to not acknowledge it, and feels incredibly guilty. He refuses to leave the commune unless necessary under the disguise of his injured leg and needing to stay put in case help is needed. The unfortunate reality is that looking around at the slow corpses reminds him of Chara, and he prefers not to be reminded of that.

Spoilers..! For next year’s and the years following it Ask blog.

Later on in the story when, yeah you probably guessed it, Frisk is cured, the Dreemurrs project a lot onto them. The similarities are uncanny, and them wearing Chara’s sweater for the majority of seeing them doesn’t help any. Frisk is their own person, however, and ends up being way different from Chara personality-wise. The illusion breaks for Toriel and Asgore, but Asriel became way too attached to give them up.

Sans holds some resentment against Frisk for even being a zombie, so post-cure he ends up being pretty nasty to them just because Paps died to one. He comes around quickly once he finds some level of hope.

is chara still a ghost, or do they just completely not exist in the underzom au?

Beyond the monster ghosts (Napstablook, Mettaton, the dummies, etc), ghosts dont exist. Their death impacted the Dreemurrs and that was it.

Sorry to disappoint. I’m absolutely willing to make content of Asriel and Chara in their childhood and teenage years.

why was papyrus killed off? will there be a scene describing his death, what happened to him? and can we see how it effects the characters afterwards? (sans, undyne, alphys, MTT specifically since they were the closest)

Papyrus was killed off mostly for character building purposes with Sans. and also bcz i cant and refuse to draw him. 😭

I promise you its for good reason. He’s naive and eager to help people. Personally, id dont think hed last long without toughening up a little. I love papyrus, but a zombie apocalypse is not where he belongs. Its not where a lot of these characters belong, which is why they all depend on each other.

In the comic. or. book. or whatever im gonna do with this au, there is gonna be a scene about his death, and theres gonna be reactions to it.

For how it impacts the characters, id prefer to. write it rather than show it with images, because its a LOT to draw out.

For one;

Sans was devastated. He tried to save Papyrus in the moment, but in an attempt he had used more magic than hes used to. Since monsters have gone years without use of immense amounts of magic (Modern commodities made it easier to live), summoning a powerful magic attack blinded him temporarily and left him visually impaired. After it settled in, he stopped doing a lot of things. He stopped getting up for militia work, quit working in the lab, and refused to leave his bed. He was useless for months until Alphys proposed an elaborate plan to, hopefully, find a cure.

Undyne was upset as well, but took a different approach to it. Prior to the incident, she was full of energy and determined to get through it. She tried to remain positive and keep people looking up, but that all .. fell apart once Papyrus died. She continued her work, but she got meaner. Straight to the point, no time for chit chat. She got impatient and demanding. Whatever the militia had been doing before, they were doing tenfold now. It lost a few members. Unlike Sans, she became more cautious and careful. Any sign of danger? She’d go in first ti make sure the others didn’t get hurt. She wasnt reckless; she wasnt cowardly. Undyne saw that without Papyrus, things got more serious, dangerous. She acted accordingly to such.

Mettaton didnt get a chance to know Papyrus until after the apocalypse started and he was called to come spend time with family instead of travelling. When the commune started and everyone had to go into groups, Papyrus was originally ordered to stay at base and help ration. Occasionally, he’d dabble in medical work while helping others under the supervision of his father, Gaster, or he’d help in entertaining other and keep them distracted. Thats where he met Mettaton. They talked, they bantered, and they hit off. They made good friends, and it stayed that way. A couple months after the apocalypse started, Muffet had joined the group and took over Papyrus’s position, which pushed him to join the militia. Mettaton, among others, urged him not to. When he did join, Mettaton was pretty upset. They saw eachother less and less, but when they did, he acted in support. After papyrus died, Mettaton’s life didnt change much. His routines seemed more… lackluster. He didnt seem as happy and distracting as he thought, and his attempts to cheer everyone up went pretty sour. He didnt put as much effort into his job as he should have been. Luckily, he made good recovery after some time of grief. He confided in Sans and Alphys, where Alphys was more of a help than Sans was.

Considering they werent… the best of friends, he got over it quicker than the others, but he was still down,

Other notable characters;

Alphys, who was upset for Sans and because Papyrus was usually great to be around. She seemed more unwilling to work for a week or two.

Dentin and Sid, who liked having Papyrus around. Dentin smiled less and Sid became more irritable, but they got through it.

Grillby was upset and tried to get Sans to talk about it with him, but to no prevail.

The commune itself seemed a little down after that, but most of them made good recovery after a 1-2 weeks of grief.

🍫- Snrk… birds?? Really? Am I allowed to ask why?

=,]

[ask-underzom]

Who in this au is most likely to be able to hypnotize/distract the others or the zombie people

It’s highly discouraged to distract the zombies whatsoever, but when need be Zom usually steps up to do it. He’s reckless, he’s dumb, and he doesnt care enough about himself to take care of himself. He’ll knock something over, make a loud noise, or throw something at one.

And if Zom doesnt, because at some point he DOES start to care, then Undyne will step up. Or Asriel. Whoever’s bravest at the time.

[ask-underzom]

Will there be a Zom X Magma ship?

yes
