Feralverse Short Stories

Swapfell Feral ([Y/N])

With great power come great responsibility. Everyone knew that line from somewhere or another. Mages were the top dog of the Surface and they made sure that the 'normies' knew it, always using their power to belittle them. Reality was cruel, no matter where you went. Perhaps that's why you'd fallen down. But even then... the monsters were no better. They just wanted you dead. You just wanted a place where SOMEONE would give a crap about you. You weren't expecting it to come in the form of a greedy, 6'1" feral skeleton dog thing that smoked.

Your first meeting with Papyrus was an interesting one. It became obvious quite quickly that he loved to pull fast ones. The shattering thick branch, the footsteps behind you, the small glimpses of a sinister shadow, oh you it was a prank. Well, he had another thing coming. "sweet soul... don' ya know how ta greet a new pal? turn around an' shake my hand.." So you did. You took his clearly tazed hand with a sweet smile and shook it. Never said you weren't a mage, you merely hated how other mages treated the non-magical humans. You had power over the elements which was why the hand tazer wasn't affecting you in the least. That startled grin of the skeletons was met with your teasing one. "What, expecting something a little shocking friend? Hi. I'm [Y/N]. [Y/N] [L/N]." He.. chuckled. "heh heh... you really pulled a fast one on me, sweet soul. i'm papyrus. papyrus the skeleton, an' you, are my soul mate." Well. That was blunt. You'd heard bits and pieces about soul mates in the magic community, and you couldn't deny the tugging in your own soul, but.. "Slow down Fido. I just got here, let me settle in before you get too engaged in this who soul mate thing. Slow and steady, you know?" Papyrus grumbled, but reluctantly agreed.

The Electric Maze Trap was really fun, though Sans insisted that you were cheating... and you were. Electricity can't harm you. Not while you had your magic item on your person. A magic item was what you conducted your magic through. Yours was a ring. A [F/C] ring with a [M/C] (metal color) band. It had been your mother's. Papyrus insisted you move into his place. "Not so fast, I want a date before I move in.. you're really impatient, you know that?" His response was instant. "yep." Then he whisked you away before you could ask what was going on. "welcome to my little area of waterfall." Papyrus gestured around to the small cavern with a bench and a blue glowing flower in it. The ceiling was lit up with all sorts of 'stars'. It was impressive. "Your little area hm? What's this?" You walked over to the glowing flower. "tha's a echo flower. it repeats whatcha say. observe." He whispered into the plant than gestured for you to touch it. You did. "ya smell nice, [Y/N]." You quirked a brow at him. "Do I now? Like what oh feral one?" You asked. He padded over to the bench and plopped down. "[Y/F/S] an' [Y/S/F/S] (Your Favorite (and Second) Scent)." He replied with a hum. You tried not to blush.

To Papyrus delight, you held up your end of the deal. You moved in with the skeleton brothers. Sans was salty at first, but learned to tolerate your presence since Pap was getting aggressive with Sans aggression towards you. It was ridiculous, but it WAS what you wanted. Someone who cared. Though hell if you were going to make this soul mate gig easy on him, nah. If he was gonna be with you, he had to know what he was dealing with. This. Was gonna be fun.
