Underlust: Papyton - His Prince
18 parts Complete MatureIn Underlust, where almost every monster is hypersexual due to being injected with lust in order to increase the monster population, Mettaton is an outsider. As a ghost, he was not injected with the lust substance, and as a result, he is completely different from everyone else in the Underground. He feels out of place as an anxious bookworm who has little interest in sex and is losing hope because his quiz show is unsuccessful. But Mettaton might not be as alone as he thinks. A certain skeleton loves Mettaton's show and wonders if anyone in the Underground shares his rare capacity to prioritize love over sex.
UNDERLUST DISCLAIMER: I think it's important to acknowledge that there are some problematic things about Underlust and that I absolutely do not condone those aspects of the AU. However, Mettaton's story in Underlust is important to me, so any senseless hatred of him or of the AU is not appreciated.
CONTENT WARNINGS: Graphic descriptions of sexual assault and attempted assault, PTSD, depression, self-harm, and suicidality. If you don't feel comfortable reading about those things, I'd highly suggest not reading this story. Please stay safe and take care of yourself!
