As I slowly work through exploring Dream’s canon character, I suppose the purpose of this comic was simply a brief introduction to his relationship with Love, (no not LOVE, though the title is definitely a pun for Killer too). There’s a lot more to explore than just this comic, but let’s start here.

Dream is demiromantic asexual. We were never really told his gender specific attraction beyond the fact he was only ever shipped with men, but for the sake of this comic I will use my panromantic headcanon. This will have zero bearing on anything. The demiromantic part is somewhat of an unfortunate orientation to have when you travel universes constantly, can’t spend long periods of times with the same people, and have almost no friends. Kind of narrows the possibilities to like… 2 people, feel free to guess who LOL.

I have never really considered love a singular emotion, and I’m pretty sure it isn’t really considered a singular one either, so I imagine Dream gets told a very wide range of emotions he can feel are “love”. Sometimes people say they’re in love and feel nothing. Sometimes people say they aren’t in love and feel very strongly. Sometimes people say they are in love and feel negativity. Whatever is happening in their head to make this happen, Dream just doesn’t know. He also doesn’t understand ANY of the cultural norms around love, as they differ wildly between universes. Additionally, any talk he has about it, he doesn’t even consider for a moment that little extra detail of sexuality because he is a sexless being with zero sex drive who had zero sexual education. So when Dream says he would still like a relationship one day, that part of it is definitely not included. He doesn’t even know he’s asexual.

some other fun details: some more minor Dream grammar errors (you know, they may make it hard to tell, but if there are unintentional errors you can tell me and I will fix them), him eating with his gloves still on (hey, listen, they’re hard to take off, he has two sets of them, and luckily monster food isn’t messy like silly human food), and of course sneaking in his canon vegetarianism, yes I am confident it is vegetarianism, there was one post on twitter we think said vegan (i mean, twitter got nuked so I can’t even confirm that), but I am very confident this was a translation error based on other info. He doesn’t like eating meat because he doesn’t need to eat and eating animals seems unnecessarily cruel. His favourite food also includes ice cream so we can probably figure it out his actual habits from there. Vegetarian, final answer.

Moving to original Underswap lore, not much here, but Sans doesn’t just make tacos, it was actually tacos AND burritos specifically, and mexican food in general. He prefers riddles instead of traps/puzzles. And, lastly, he says Wowzers instead of Wowie. Almost got me on that one, but I source check too often to slip up like that, sorry.
