Nightmare found a young child a long time ago. When they fell into a coma it sent him over the edge. several hundred years later the child wakes up in a castle of darkness, surrounded by people, er... skeletons, that they don't know. Now they are being raised by murderers, cannibals, and world destroyers. Oh yeah! And their Uncle is the god of Death. Fun. WARNING (but not really): This story has been known to give people heart attacks and possible death from wholesome cuteness. I am not responsible for said medical emergencies or deaths. Read at your own risk. ~~~~~~ || Few things. 1) The first couple of chapters are going to basically just be Nightmare, but it's for plot reasons. 2) Dream is definitely going to be a little ooc. Don't like it, don't read. This is just for fun. 3) Like I said, this is just for fun. So, updates are when I feel like it. 4) I'mma try to keep the pronouns for (Y/N) gender neutral, but I may just drop that at some point. Depends mostly on what you guys prefer. 5) any art or videos added are not my own unless explicitly stated. Cool? Great. Let's get started.Complete

Lost Among Realms (m|m cast version)
1 argument, 1 inter-dimensional portal sucking in the 6 main characters, and 1 enemy within the various dimensions travelled. I'm kidding. There's more than 1. This is (or should be) the mostly men main cast version. There's also a mostly women main cast version. Throughout this series, six characters develop their powers and their relationships with friends, with siblings and with romantic and sexual partners. They travel through time and to alternate dimensions both by accident due to a lack of control over their powers and intentionally due to being summoned to help save their world or a time line. The series is light and the individual novellas can be read on their own in terms of the story itself. I try to recap any important relationship stuff that isn't clear and anything relating to previous novellas (I may have missed 1 or 2 things but I tried).Complete

Y/n was and/or is a very sweet child, unfortunately for them they weren't treated very well by their mother or father, Y/n was abused and didn't have anyone. Fortunately one day y/n got scared and ran away from their parent that was abusive. Y/n's au is Dreamtale While the second part of this story will be inside a different castle... Partially, this story has abusive and angst. Y/n had no friends, they did not go to school, nor did they have any Familiarity's with the outside world. It was all dark for y/n. The only thing y/n could do was see outside the window, and even that wasn't good enough for them. The door was aways locked and there was no way for y/n to get help from anyone... Until one Day...Complete

A What Now? A Nightmare X Reader Story
HEY there will be cussing in this - you have been warned. This is my first ever Undertale-related thing, and no, there is nothing lewd here. Yes, this is a xreader story, don't sue me. The protagonist (you) isn't the happiest person in the world. You're an outcast, a loner. You lost everything before you were adopted by US!Toriel and made friends with the skelebros and Chara. But even with your new family, life wasn't perfect. One day, your school bullies take it too far... I am doing my best to keep it entirely gender neutral, the pronouns I'm using are they/them, and if I slip up please let me know. You also probably won't see descriptions of yourself very often, and when there are, it will be like, soaked, beaten, bruised, flushed, ect.Complete
We Don't Choose Our Time
"We don't get to choose our time. Death is what gives life meaning. To know your days are numbered, your time is short." - The Ancient One Ben had been happy once upon a time. But that was a long time ago. That was before his world was torn from his claws, leaving behind a broken, angry shell. Now a mercenary, he only seeks to endure the rest of his days trying to forget his misery. But that all changes when a client charges him with looking after a young girl. - I wrote this a few years ago, thought I'd give it a whirl online. It's pretty short, not quite novel worthy, but enough to get the job done, I think. And yes, this is basically The Last of Us, but with wolves (mostly different, but the plot is very similar). If I ever write a sequel, I can assure you it will be nothing like the actual sequel.Complete

AU Sans Oneshots
Just a heads up not the greatest at creating stories. Anyway you'll be a different reader each time but with a different Sans. I won't upload much but I'll try to upload as much as I can. Warning: there will be smut, kissing, maybe some sexual content, swearing, anything traumatic like abuse, and you being a hybrid reader like a Neko. Also none of the art is mine, all credit of art goes to the artists. So try and enjoy my terrible writing. 😄
