Nightmare!Sans Fanfiction
DreamTale AU

 There's a saying that the eyes are the window to the SOUL. 

    And when I look into her eyes; I question myself...

    How can a SOUL so beautiful love a NIGHTMARE like me?

                 ☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽

    Everyone loves a good fairytale. Where the hero's are loved and the villains despised. The good guy beats the bad guy and saves the day; sometimes they'll get the girl or guy of their dreams. But, have you ever wondered if there is another story behind the main one? Where it tells the villain's side of it?  Have you ever wondered what really happened? 

    "Sure, those golden apples are beautiful... but I always found the darkness of those black apples more appealing."

    "My mother once told me that every villain has a story."

"How can Cupid... how could you be so cruel?" I curse lowly. Who could have imagined something like this happening to me? It had been so long since everything happened, but somehow the pain in my heart never left. The memories starts to flashback into my mind as I start to process what is happening in front of me, and why my past heartbreaks are all gathered at the same place. Nightmare, my childhood friend and first love. My first ever heartbreak. I tend to find him in everyone I have loved. He was cold and unpredictable but he was also warm and considerate at times... He was complicated but I loved all of him. Error, the one I chased over and one I was not willing to give up. He stood up from the rest and gave color to my world. All my poems were dedicated to him and him alone. Dust, possibly my other half. He felt like my soulmate. Everything about him made me feel like we were meant for each other. We shared the same interests about everything but I was wrong about one thing. We didn't share the same feelings. His heart belonged to my best friend. Killer, a flirty guy who people often rumored as the playboy. Most girls had fallen in love with his charm and personality. I was one of those unfortunate ones who fell right into his trap. But I... I saw something in him that other people couldn't see; there was something beneath those sweet grins. Horror. My comfort. My home. The one who filled the gap. The one who I think of every little nice thing. I love him so much to the point where I feel like the pain that would come with it would be worse than death. It had to be avoided. Cross. I was always drawn into him. He was my best-est friend. The one who I can count on everytime. The shoulder I can lean to when needed. The one who made me feel like I am the best thing that ever happened in his life. He was perfect while I am just... me. So why did I have to see them again? Why now? Love is not something I want to go through again... never again. <\3
Expectations and a Golden Stitch-A DreamError/Insomnia Fanfic by HappyWriter62
50 parts Complete
Dream always felt the weight of expectations on his shoulders and they've only grown worse now that he's a Star Sans. Save this AU, rescue that person, stop Nightmare over there, and make X person smile! It's a never-ending cycle of tasks and he gets asked more about why he hasn't done it sooner or defeated his brother yet than thanked for what he accomplished. He feels trapped in this position and doubts if he didn't have his positive aura that anyone would care for him. Most like him for the joy he brings or what he can give them. Nobody around him ever feels genuine without a doubt in his head. Add in the stress of protecting one Star Sans(Swap) and keeping the other(Ink) from starting trouble and you have a positive guardian ready to break under expectations. Then you have Error, the destroyer of AUs. His reputation speaks for himself and builds all the expectations he needs whenever he steps foot into another AU. He's as bad an omen as a black cat crossing your path. Others assume he is bad because of his "freakish" or glitching appearance. He has accepted these but it gets tiring when he already has the voices bossing him around or Fate reminding him that he should do more destruction. But he doesn't limit himself to destruction. He watches UnderNovela, admires the stars, and appreciates what he can. He pushes the limits of what is expected of him or disregards them completely. A trait that Dream eventually finds himself admiring in him, the known enemy of his friend. He knows that Error's feelings are genuine since he doesn't change in his presence(still an angry manchild). So when Dream gets wounded and stuck with Error on a whim, where will it take them? Will it be a mistake remaining in a hatred of enemies or will it change them both for the better? Could this admiration open Error up to corrupting Dream or will he be the influence Dream needs to against expectations and live for himself?

I have always been unlucky with love huh... I'm the 'Unrequited Love Repeater' that's right. It's almost like Cupid himself hates my entire existence. I met them again. My failed romance stories. The people who made me learn from my mistake. The people who taught me how to love myself. The people who broke my heart and mend it back. The people who made my smile brighter. The people who made my heart warm. The people who took pages from my book. Pages of happiness, sadness, anger, and well... past memories. Nightmare, my childhood friend whom I had always admired when I was young. He loves me but it was the type of love I didn't yearn for. Killer, the playboy who made me laugh the hardest. I wanted him in my arms but he wanted to be in her arms. Dust, my bestfriend who I resonate with a lot. Same music taste. Same vibes. Different feelings. He fell in love with my bestfriend. Error, my 'rival' at academics. I did everything I could to acquire his love. I guess you already know who lost between us. Horror, my guardian angel. Not literally. Comfort. He gave me comfort. He made me feel special but at that time I was already too tired to even try. Cross, my online bestfriend. My feelings on him are uncertain. I don't think I'm ready to address that yet. But after all these years, I still love them. Someday I will be brave enough to mutter the words "I still love you". ___________________ ↷I have the rewritten one published!

His Summoner || Demon! Nightmare Sans x Reader by StrawberryMilkSnake
74 parts Complete Mature
When a demon summoning goes wrong, a rich and powerful man's son gets killed and (Y/n) is forced to team up with the Demon King that did it to survive the ensuing attempts on her and her family's lives. But the King will only do it on one condition: he gets her soul. So with no choice but to die for her mistake, His Summoner promises him her soul when the job is done. | - Demon! Nightmare Sans x Female Reader - A little bit of a reverse harem with plenty of Bad Sanses x Reader moments (with a canon reason for it :D), but ultimately, (Y/n) is Nightmare's - Honestly you could read this with no prior knowledge of any of the characters and you'd be just fine - Kinda a slow burn? But don't worry, I throw in so many subtle/not-so-subtle intimate moments with all the Sanses that it makes it worth the wait :D - I'll throw in some bonus chapters with the other Sanses for extra (non-canon) fluff that doubles as a breather from the story, too - Is the relationship toxic? Maybe. I mean, this is canon Nightmare after all. But that's the beauty of a fictional story, no? - A lot of the symbolism and hidden meanings aren't obvious, so you might have to be on the lookout to see them (and keep in mind: Night doesn't openly show many emotions, so the devil is in the details) - I'm not going to spoil anything, but for all you anxious readers out there like me, I'll divulge I'm a sucker for happy endings *wink* - It's my interpretation of the characters (kept as canon as possible)
💜The Unexpected Truth💜 ~Dreamswap Fanfic~ by HimeOfShyness

"Everyone was beginning to see that something was off about Nightmare, especially Dream. He was acting in ways that weren't typical for him. Even though Dream really wanted to stop caring about his "not-so-related-brother," he just couldn't help it. What Dream doesn't realize is that Nightmare has a huge secret he's kept hidden for a really long time-maybe even decades! Will Nightmare share his secret with everyone, or will he keep it a secret forever?" Same thing as the events of Dreamswap but has a twist in it. I had this idea for a very long time now ever since I read numerous fanfics of DS. So I decided to turn it into a reality and write my own. Bare in mind that this is the first Undertale AU, I'm writing unlike other fandoms I wrote. Like TMNT, CountryHumans, Ninjago and etc. In this story, it is canon that DS!Nightmare and DS!Dream are not related. This is confirmed by the owner of the AU. "Dreamswap Dream and Nightmare weren't even created by the tree spirit they were literally just snatched as babies to be guardians and had magic blobs made by the tree spirit, yeeted into them that made them immortal and are being specifically stated to have different parents." 💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜 Disclaimer: I have no ownership ties to Undertale or the AU. Except for the inside this book which is written by me. I want to thank to my friend, P3RISHABLE for the beautiful book cover. 😍 Dreamswap belongs to this amazing and talented person: OneBizzareKai 😎

Erebnisse - the experiences, positive or negative, that we feel most deeply, and through which we truly live; not mere experiences, but Experiences ( This is my Alternate Universe built off of Dreamtale, Dreamtale and its characters belongs to Joku, all characters in this story are part of a different humanized multiverse. ) A long time ago, there was a sapling. This sapling would grow into the most splendid and important tree in the multiverse. Alongside the sapling was a child, as the sapling grew, so did the child. Once the sapling was a big sturdy tree, with apples of 2 colors and feelings, the child was a woman, a guardian of the tree. The tree was a powerful tree, it held all the feelings of the multiverse in its fruit, its apples. The golden apples on one side of the tree held all the positive feelings, and whoever ate it grew extremely happy. These golden apples could cure any illness, even illness that would lead to death. The black apples on the other side of the tree held all the negative feelings, whoever ate it grew extremely depressed and negative. These black apples were rumored to kill you if you ate it, or cause harmful injuries. One day the guardian died from a fatal wound, and 2 new guardians were made... A sickly being and a healthy being, how will this story play out? Will these 2 beings find peace within their turmoil or will it bring their downfall?
