Day 6! OMG KET ME TELL ME HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS TROPE-

Papselfship Week // Prompt: Accidental Hand Holding

@selfshipperapproved

Just a quick one shot kjfdhgkjdfg I wanted to draw this out originally but I was taking too long so I wrote it out instead :'>!

Eek! I didn’t mean to. Day 7 of Papyrus x Self Ship Week 2023 is Accidental Hand-holding

Thoughts wandering along with your hand? Grabbing popcorn at the same time? Or did you get whisked away with the emotions of the moment? Falling asleep and your hand betrays you? Whatever reason you point the blame at, it’s time to lock fingers!

And day 5! Only 2 more days to go

Day 6 of Papyrus x Self Ship Week 2023 is Only One Bed!

Did the hotel mess up your booking? Did Papyrus pull a page from that questionable dating book of his and orchestrate this situation? Regardless of how it happened, it looks like the two of you are stuck with only one bed! Whatever are you to do (but cuddle up and get close)?

Day 3! Enemies to lovers-

Been dying to use this audio and I finally have an excuse to

WHOOP WHOOP a pap self ship week? Sign me up!

Wowie! Typical Tropes is here! Day 1 of Papyrus x Self Ship Week 2023 is Can't tie his scarf/tie!

Is he too sleepy from a long night up? Does he simply just like you tying his scarf up for him? Or is he trying to pull the wool over your eyes by pretending to not know how to? No matter the reason, let's get together to wrap up our tall skeleton man's scarf and straighten those tricky ties.

Wowie! It’s our first ever Papship week event! We all love our tall, lanky lad and we’re staying true to his Dating Guide as we’re off exploring Typical Tropes! That’s right, those tropes that you read again and again and still want more of! From Kabedon to the classic Coffeeshop AU, let’s have fun exploring the age old favourites.

If you’re unsure what Papyrus x Self-ship week is:

It’s a week-long event to celebrate shipping yourself (or your OCs/Sona) with Papyrus. That can be good ol’ Classic but you can also go with any variant: Underfell, Horrortale, Dreamtale, your own personal AU—you name it, you can do it!

Fan fic and fan art are both allowed, as are NSFW and Dark fic works, we only ask that you tag things appropriately to give readers a heads up on what to expect! Please note that we will not be accepting any explicit underage content. Please tag your posts with #papselfship, @selfshipperapproved, or even submit your works directly to us so we can see and reblog what you create!

Due to Tumblr’s restriction on NSFW visual content, you are more than welcome to post images to the Ao3 collection we have created specifically for this event, which can be found here: Papyrus/Self Insert Ship Week 2023. Simply click the little button to the right of the collection that reads, “Post to Collect”. Remember that you will have to host your art on an image hosting site before you can embed it in an Ao3 work. Additionally, if you post your work on Ao3 for this event, we encourage you to add them to the collection!

Since this is specifically aimed at Self-Insert content, we will not be accepting Frans, Papcest or Fontcest content, though you are more than welcome to use these prompts for other characters and ships.

With that all said and done, have fun and we look forward to seeing what y’all come up with! ✧ Not interested in this year’s prompts? Check our prompt masterlist for the previous years!
