Arch Nemesies but like. In a friends kind of way

Oh to be vaguely friends with your character foil

Also. They are named Jamie and Andrew. To me. And probably only to me. But it felt right

Mettaton is also there in the corner for some reason

How come Sans has his own communities and Discord servers? WHERE ARE THE SERVERS FOR THE OTHER CHARACTERS!? Like, come on people, Sans isn't the only Undertale character

PORTIA'S GANG!!

Yesterday, I made a post expressing a concept of a "what-if" scenario of where its basically the Bad Sanses but different Underrated Undertale characters

Here are the designs I made!

Nightmare — Muffet/Portia

Killer — Burgerpants/Pawn

Dust — Napstablook/Buster

Horror — Nice Cream Guy/Niko

Later I'm going to post all their reference sheets and information in a Masterlist, so keep an eye on that!!

but yeah, maybe I can make this into a serious project and maybe even An Ask blog :3

Another spread, mostly colored doodles. Pokémon and Undertale junk to let off steam after class.

Closeups and Junk under the cut!

I love learning that games for a console that was discontinued in 2013 are still leagues out of my price range. And that if I only had the next version up of said console I could have paid like $30 and had a Pokémon game. Now I want to figure out how to get an R4 card without getting scammed, because I could care less about having an OG physical card but I am also… not the most technically inclined. At least not when it comes to video games, for whatever reason. I just wanna play the game.

Undertale. Don’t know why I started drawing it again but here we go. I started thinking of my original phase because of all this, and I was weirdly, unironically obsessed with Nice Cream Guy X Burgerpants back then??? The underpaid service workers ship. The capitalism pals.

Also thinking of my original, childhood Undertale phase, I decided to redraw my old self-inserts. Classic. In the time when I didn’t have social media and was watching Tumblr ask blogs on YouTube to get my fandom fix. I wholeheartedly believe younger me would have both loved Tumblr and also have gotten bullied off the platform. Thank god I was never brave enough to make an account.

Anyways, from what I can remember, both of these characters were 14 at the oldest. I was young enough to think that was mature. The cat was a super smart scientist who worked at Grillbys and was also a part of the Royal Gaurd, somehow? Normal undertale timeline. Was either related to or friends with Burgerpants? The only reason I hesitate to say they were related is because I know they weren’t father/daughter or brother/sister and those were practically the only two relationships I thought were allowed back then. Liked Temmie a lot. Maybe had a Sans ship thing????? The fox… I mean I know they started off as just a redesign of the cat to make her more original but. Uh. After finding a blurb in an old sketchbook from that time: she is a creation of Ink and Error (????) and was raised by them, tried to kill “their Chara” (????? I thought they were created by the void crew??? Where’d Chara come from?) and won but also died, where their dust “traveled the multiverse” (How?) till it fucking possesses a body created by Gaster and Sans in a little AU (????????) but this AU breaks and becomes the Void (HUH??) and is AGAIN raised there until she is 11 with the goal of killing “their Chara” (girl I thought you did that already). She finds her way back home (Ah, void #1) eventually and is a “Multiverse traveling reaper.” Also she likes Underfell Sans. I give younger me 10/10 for creativity, but a C for continuity because????????? Either I thought I’d remember the extra details or I thought it was obvious somehow? At least the cat I can just justify as just a person who needs to work multiple jobs. We are missing data for the fox I swear. Lost to time, smh.

Your art is so great! I especially enjoyed the most recent posts with the Dreemurr kids, the colors are cool. Hello! If you still want a character suggestion, how about Burgerpants? He's my favorite.

[Finally doing my art suggestions! If you want me to draw a character, just send it in my ask box]

Aww, thank you so much for the compliment. I'm glad you like my dreemurr drawings! I love them so much. I'm glad to hear you enjoy them!

Anyway, I included nice cream guy because, haha, sillies.

[lordicusyay]

Humanaphobia nice cream guy and burger pants!!

you cannot remove the queerness from utdr without fundamentally hurting the story. there is no label ever put on it but it's there and it has to be acknowledged.

Frisk, Chara, & Kris being non-binary instead of just–whatever the player wants them to be–adds to the themes of individuality and separation between them and the player. For Frisk & Chara, I've made a whole post about their role as narrative stand-ins but also individual characters. For Kris, it's actually ridiculous if you even attempt to claim they aren't non-binary–because they actively reject the player's influence and are the furthest thing from a self-insert. Monster Kid, Napstablook, etc are also genderless. In Deltarune, Seam also.

Also, Frisk considering to Flirt with literally anyone regardless of gender–and that being a game mechanic in and of itself–to me, implies this kid is most likely pan. Whatever you want to call it, their gender-blind flirting is in fact a game mechanic.

Alphys' and Undyne's sapphicness is the key to the pacifist ending. Without setting them up you literally cannot access the true pacifist ending. If it wasn't for Papyrus encouraging his lesbian bestie to send that damn letter, nothing would have happened. (Maybe indeed Flowey would've used another method to make time, but accessing the true lab with Alphys' permission would've been near impossible.) In fact, Alphys' bisexuality and her subsequent crushes are in fact a big part of her character. Not the most important–obviously, Alphys is one of the most layered characters in the game–but in hating herself, the lies she says to appease to Asgore first and Undyne later are undeniably a big part of what makes up her character.

Mettaton's allegorical transness kick-starts the events that lead to the creation of Flowey and the amalgamates. Without him, Alphys wouldn't be royal scientist. No determination experiments, no Flowey, no game. No Mettaton? Half of the hotland segments wouldn't exist, including the MTT resort in which the infamous it's raining somewhere else sequence happens. Mettaton also helps other trans people with their transition, like when he gifted his blue dress to the beautiful trans lioness after being done with it.

Mad Mew Mew's transness, even if unacknowledged by the main game, is constantly brought up by Toby since she appears in occasional News Letters, the alarm clock dialogue, etc, as a way to remind everyone that she exists and is as much s part of this found family as everyone else. She's also a sapphic, with her crush on Undyne also being acknowledged.

Asgore's implications of bisexuality and his inherent homoeroticism when talking about Rudy in the Alarm Clock Dialogue & Deltarune alike aren't game changing aspects of his character but nice touches that inform his relationships outside of Toriel.

The two Royal Guards in Hotland can only be spared through being set-up. Also, their romance cuts the player's nice cream supply.

Papyrus, though nothing game changing can be said about his sexuality, has a well-documented celebrity crush on Mettaton. Also, if you want to bring Toby's twitter joke into consideration, the skeleton brothers could in fact exist in the ace spectrum. And I say spectrum instead of outwardly asexual because Sans befriended our mom last night-

Even though Nice Cream Guy gives free Nice Cream to Burgerpants, he refuses to give free Nice Cream to the human. Burgerpants is so oblivious this could be considered flirting that I wasn't sure if I could count it, but then again Burgerpants is the nexus of a complex, interwoven web of non-reciprocated crushes and he's deeply unaware of the situation at large. This dynamic expands in Deltarune, with Bpants saying that Blue Ears is obsessed and has no sense of personal space–and the latter noting a love for his co-workers and giggling.

So then, In Deltarune, obviously, we have a deeply queer group of people and I think that this queer solidarity is really fundamental to it. I already mentioned the importance of Kris being non-binary .

Ralsei is generally understood to be maybe pan due to his general gender-blind openess towards especially Kris. I don't want to really get into his blushing when Kris gets too close or the fountain of love, because, well, he's representative of Asriel–but still. His queer-coding is undeniable.

But onto stronger candidates for this queer conversation, Noelle and Susie's dynamic adds two more sapphics into the utdr franchise. Noelle's crush has always been a massive, dare I say game-changing part of her character. Susie and Noelle met for the first time in Susie's first day of class. Susie had forgotten her pencil, and then Noelle noticed it and offered her candy-cane one. After this nice action of Noelle's, and also by the fact that she genuinely smiled at her, Susie developed a soft side for her and spared her from her bullying.

Then we have Berdly’s whole, “I'M the one Noelle and Susie are falling like dominoes for. And you know what dominoes means, Kris? ,,,You're next.” At another point he calls Noelle to ask her if she will be his date at the festival the next day. Susie tells him to leave her alone. And you can decide to respond that you'll go out with him or sing the Wrong Number song (in any case, Berdly is surprised). If you choose the first option, he says that Kris will have to compete with Noelle and Susie (thinking the two are into him). If it's the second then, he says that Kris will fall under his charm sooner or late. That also suggest a gender-blind attraction. But, in general, his crushes to Noelle and Susie respectively seem performative. And the queer reading that can be done here is undeniable, taking into consideration deltarune being steeped in themes of identity, performance, masks and unspoken internal conflict.

Now, mind you, every single side character can be viewed through a queer lense–in fact, it's damn near impossible not to do that. I just think that's wonderful. Like, have you seen Rouxls Kaard? Queen? Jevil? Spamton? Tenna? The queerness is oozing right through. The side characters in both Undertale and Deltarune are bursting with camp, flamboyance, theatricality–rarely do they conform into typical binaries/boxes wether those could refer to gender, sexuality, or like. Morality man idk.

In light of Deltarune’s catfishing subplot: I will not stand for people saying nicepants is a crackship that got canonized as if burgerpants doesn’t talk about nice cream guy in undertale unprompted

[charlituoso]

what the fuck this is canon

[caty3440]

if this doesn't happen in chapter 5 i'm gonna be PISSED!!!

[aleespace]

I think it's time we talk about Burgerpants x Nice cream guy because I feel like I'm going crazy over here

For those who forgot or unaware this is a ship between two vendors, so called "Burgerpants" (because we don't know his real name) who works for Mettaton in Undertale and "Nice cream guy" (NCG) blue bunny who sells you "Nice cream"

I think originally this ship was created because people were like "they both are vendors but one is a cute optimistic bunny and the other hates his job and life... WOULDN'T IT BE FUNNY—" and so it began

But what's interesting is how Toby apparently saw it and was SO onboard with this idea that he now created an entire storyline for these two

One of the few late additions to Undertale was including NCG in Burgerpants' dialogue, not only that but also making it very clear that NCG likes Burgerpants and this affection is transferred to Toby's other game - Deltarune.

Now it's Pizzapants instead of Burgerpants and NCG is referred to as just Blue Bunny or Blue Ears but their dynamic stayed the same. Starting with first chapter we see that NCG still likes Burgerpants as he's often clings to him to the point when his behavior can be described as lack of "concept of personal space".

There's also a phrase following this one about Blue Bunny constantly accidentally pouring drinks over Burgerpants and laughing. I highly doubt it was intentional act of harm, for me it reads like maybe he was nervous around his crush or for some other reason. Toby wrote Blue Bunny to be kind so I think he wouldn't harm anyone with malicious intent which we will also see in 4th chapter, but now let's look at them in second chapter.

Here Burgerpants tells us about his new "girlfriend" he chats with online. He's never seen her actual picture and there are reasons to believe this girlfriend isn't actually real, but Burgerpants is oblivious to it as he's just happy he found someone. If we talk with NCG here he says this about the situation

Now it could've ended here if it wasn't for new chapters which completely recontextualize all of this

Suddenly it is made very apparent that this "girlfriend" was fabricated by NCG and Bratty. The dialogue between them below:

Now I don't know if this plotline was in Toby's mind from very beginning but considering it was this whole situation to me looks like this:

NCG started chatting with Burgerpants first. Maybe he somehow found out his number or found him on social media and started a conversation. I guess at some point there was a miscommunication and NCG thought that Burgerpants knew who he was chatting with, but in reality Burgerpants thought just what he wanted to think. NCG might have sent him a simple photo of pizza and Burgerpants saw it as "bikini"

This would've explained why NCG at first couldn't understand why Burgerpants was so happy. Because if we later find out that NCG is okay with lying to Burgerpants to make him happy then why would NCG start pretending to be this "girlfriend" in the first place if he didn't know at first that this would make Burgerpants happy?

So I guess what happened is: NCG texts Burgerpants, Burgerpants misinterprets it as a girl texting him, Bratty and NCG find out about this situation, NCG at first wants to tell the truth but Bratty talks him into continuing lying. NCG thinks he does it to make the one he likes happy, when in reality he unknowingly helps Bratty to make fun of him.

If this is really the case then my prediction for the next chapter is that at the festival NCG finally tells the truth and we see where their relationship will go to from this point. Knowing Toby it will probably end well but still I'm so intrigued by this little side plotline most people won't even notice!! I'm actually so unwell about this ship if you couldn't tell already and I expect something really really interesting in next chapter!!!

[papirussian]

I wanted to draw burger pants. Anyone else used to ship him with nicecream guy?

[alias-inkpatch]

this was originally for let Sans rest day, but i got carried away. so everyone gets to have a beach day : )

[ghostkin-embry]

Just edited together every single time Burgerpants and Nice Cream Guy talk about each other (directly or indirectly) in any of the games. Why, you ask? I don't know. Enjoy.
