Where this was going to go (had I not fallen out)

(Yes that is The Story of Undertale up there. I have no regrets)

That's right, it's ya girl, back years later to finally put my unfinished business to rest. So, basically, I kinda fell out of the ut au fandom. I still come back every now and then, but it feels more like visiting than actively being a part of the community, y'know? A lot of my old AU ideas I have kinda just turned into OC projects in my mind. Heck, that includes this fic to be honest, at least with my versions of the deities. 

But I didn't just wanna leave everyone without at least telling them what direction the story was going to go in, even if I don't remember everything to the fullest detail. So, here I am, now 16 years of age at the time of writing this, to tell you all what I had been planning (and if there's anything I forgot to answer since I'm typing this at like 4am just ask me in the comments and I'll reply at some point or other):

*Yes, Dreamberry was going to be real. Love wins (or at least it would've won)

*No, we were never going to see Error again, except as maybe an epilogue of some kind 

*Uh deities' pronouns in this fic (and this applies to my OC versions of the characters that live rent-free in my own brain XD): Fate is they/he, Luck is she/her, Destiny is she/they, Karma is he/him.

*And finally: Yes, Destiny is guilty on at least 47 accounts of mass-murder via safety scissors. 

Ok actual explanation of that last one:

I can't remember absolutely everything completely about my lore plans for the deities so I may have filled in some gaps with the lore of my OCs based on them, but basically Fate and Destiny were kinda born by mistake. By that I mean, they were meant to be one entity but ended up split into two (don't ask how deities are born I never planned that far and I still haven't skskskskks-). So that's why Karma made that one weird insult. (Btw Karma's not evil he's just a bxtch [affectionate] and kinda harsh. "Good is not nice" and whatever other TV Tropes pages apply). And they worked together with multiverse creation. 

For a long time every multiverse attempt they'd make would end up collapsing in on itself and over time this really dug away at Fate's mental health. The twins both got more attached to the mortals they created than other deities would (also idk if this ever would've come up but yes this includes Luck, she actually really enjoys toying with mortals. Again, though,  she's not evil), but Fate kinda started trying to make themself stop caring since it would seemingly inevitably lead to heartbreak once things started to go awry. However, Destiny wasn't all too bothered by it... because, as Fate would later discover, she was the cause of it.

Basically 14 year-old me took a look at most fgod fics and thought "hey isn't it kinda messed up how Destiny saves Error and then does nothing for the millions of innocent lives who just wanted to not be killed and had no idea about any sort of multiversal balance, simply letting them all die with the collapsing multiverse, all while only saving the one guy whose suffering was unfortunately a necessary evil for the sake of all the others? Isn't it weird how she never really does anything to save anyone else, just him? Doesn't it seem fishy that Error is seemingly the only person they care about at all?" And honestly I still hold by this thought. Maybe the fic landscape has changed in the years since then and people have started addressing this, but at least back when I was writing this fic, I hadn't found even a single one where she did anything for anyone else but Error and occasionally some people close to Error. So I (taking some inspiration from a fic by one of my friends) decided to take that to what I believed was a logical extreme: Destiny would literally be willing to kill off the rest of a multiverse just for the sake of one singular being. So when inevitably in each multiverse she got especially attached to one or two specific mortals who may have been mistreated in some way or another (pretty much whichever character became her own personal scrunkly skskskekeksmdmsmsmdm)... let's just say stories like the collapse of Error's multiverse far predated it.
