Lavender In The Limelight

Hi, I'm Lavender: the writer of this... blog, I guess? I write headcanons for Sans AUs mostly, and some one-shots on the side!

I'm pretty open to requests, but here's my few rules:

I like to keep my readers gender-neutral (I do write for things like period comfort, pregnancy, etc.)

If you want romantic or platonic, ask specifically or I'll take some freedom to pick myself

No non-medical drug use, alcohol, poly, or smut requests, please! It makes me uncomfortable.

If you're not sure if your ask is too spicy, feel free to send it and ask me, I'll be happy to let you know!

The more AUs you ask for, the longer its going to take for me to write them! I have not forgotten you, I'm just working on it. That, or it will be one of my 'grouped' headcanons, which aren't as detailed as individual headcanons

My ao3 name is LavenderInTheLimelight, if you want to look for my longer Fics.

Oh, and, yes. I know I will write an answer or make a statement that sounds weird/blunt/robotic/formal/other-word-for-unusual sometimes. It's just how I talk.

Bye 👋

Edit: Can’t believe I have to add this. Do not ask me about political debates or anything similar. This is an entertainment blog where I make headcanons about fictional characters. Not a place for you to debate with me or anyone else about things they’re not comfortable with discussing.

Killer! Reader x Sans AUs (8/16)

Hi! 👋 This is so late I'm so sorry!!!

You are collectively nicknamed Dumb, Dumber, and Dumbest (you are Dumb)

He hates your crazy behavior, but will never actually discourage it. He secretly loves knowing that you and your siblings are close.

You thought he would play mom-friend? Hahaha, no.

This ass is actively either telling you all to shut up and let him work/sleep, or he’s egging you on just to see how entertaining you three can get

Your siblings weren’t so sure about him at first, but they’ve definitely come around 

Geno was tired.

You distinctly looked anywhere but his face while being sandwiched between Dumber and Dumbest on his tiny, deeply uncomfortable office couch. Dumbest looked mildly amused, while Dumber was completely unashamed despite being covered in mystery goo.

"Why," He asked dryly, "Does today feel like take your kid to work day and not a simple visit to pick up my student's homework?"

You mumbled out something he couldn't hear, still not making eye contact. Dumber started trying to separate the goo from their hair unsuccessfully.

Geno could scold you for messing with unknown chemicals. He could get huffy about the mess you three had caused. Or he could pretend it never happened and get back to his show, perhaps even finishing the season before dinner...

He leaned back in his chair, "How on earth did you even get into the chemical supply in the first place?"

Dumbest held up a lock pick with a smug expression. You cringed next to them like a five year old in the principals office.

No problem! I was already working on them, so you just gave me the motivation to keep going!

Red

He convinced you to move to his AU since you needed people who could stand against you when you went all ‘tornado soul’ (his words)

Practically your full time bodyguard whenever you leave the house. Will scare off anyone who looks at your Soul for longer than half a second.

People in his AU are very familiar with Determination, so you end up being a bit of a pariah to the average masses.

Edge, however, decided he likes his creepy looking sister-in-law long before the two of you start dating 👍🏼

Red x Killer! Reader

“Well, hello there.” a voice purred far too close to your ear, carrying the smell of dead fish and breath mints. The figure loomed far too close to you, fur lightly brushing against your shoulder. “Someone's fre-aky, care to be freaky with me?”

Worst. Pick-up line. Ever. You sighed to yourself, too tired to even muster up the now common disgust. You swallowed the coffee you’d been savoring and wondered when Edge was getting back from picking you out a new winter coat. “Nope.”

“Aw, co-” the rest of the annoying knat’s attempt to ‘convince’ you was disrupted by his muzzle meeting the picnic table with a loud, wet sounding crunch and a wail. 

It seemed Red was early.

“Hey, pal!” a skeletal hand came down to rest on your shoulder. “Sorry ‘bout that, my hand slipped.”

The figure leaking magic-blood on your boots didn’t do much more than groan pathetically.

“You’re early.” you hummed, sipping your coffee slowly and ignoring the way the injured monster’s friends dragged him away with mumbled apologies. To Red, of course, no one cared if somebody with their Soul hanging out gets harassed, but if that person’s already taken then it's a big no-no.

Hypocrites. 

“Beat it.” Your self assigned guard dog growled, quickly occupying the seat across from you, if the screech of the chair was any indication. “Yeah, clocked out a little early, the next shift offered to take an hour from me.”

“That's nice of them.” you hummed, “Edge’s still trying to figure out which color best suits me.”

“Why?” Red gripped, and you could almost imagine him shaking his fist at the air in exasperation. “It’s not like you’ll know if it looks bad anyway.”

You shrugged lazily, “I’ll just be glad if it fits.”

~~~~~~~~

You blinked off into the distance with the expression you always got when you were eavesdropping on a conversation across the room. The steam from your coffee had stopped a handful of minutes ago. Red was almost grateful you were even more blind than ol’ Smiley. He could stare at you as much as he wanted and you’d never know. 

…okay that sounded creepy even in his head.

Distracting himself from the weird whispers of his brain, Red cleared his throat and grumbled, “Well, if Boss is gonna take ‘is sweet time, we might’s well eat before we get booted out.”

You hummed in agreement, head dipping forward slightly. “There anything good?”

“No idea.” He sighed, earning a snort of amusement from you. “Not exactly my scene.”

It really wasn’t. The bougie cafe Edge had sat you at was so different from Red’s usual haunts that his bones were crawling. All smooth jazz and posh chatter, everyone side eyeing the two of you like they didn’t know looking twice could get their teeth knocked in.

“They got anything with marshmallows?” you hummed, abruptly bringing his attention back to you.

“Uuuh,” Red scrambled through the menu on the far wall. “S’more Cake?”

You took a long and obnoxious slurp of your coffee, making the two teens behind you cringe, and slid your card over the table. “I’ll get that. You pick whatever.”

You little- “I ain’t takin’ that.”

“Take the card, Red.” you deadpanned right back at him.

He folded his arms and scowled, not that you’d be able to tell. “I got my own money, thanks, Sweets.”

If he could see your eyes under the seven layers of sludge, he got the distinct feeling you’d be rolling them. Impressive. “And I don't break my back not to buy my own damned cake.”

Red grunted disbelievingly, “And you’re not insinuating that I buy my own junk on your tab?”

“I don’t have a tab at this place.” you drawled avoidantly, entirely too smug for someone whose expression hadn’t so much as twitched.

“Take yer damned card back before I eat it.” Red grumbled, standing up with a pained groan. Not even middle aged and his back was already going to the dogs…

You sighed through your nose and swiped back the offending plastic. “Extra cacao powder.”

(totally not based off my own dog, he loves going everywhere with me and growls at strange men getting near me when we are in public, we are working on that tho because he can't just growl at random people)

Loves the dog and is very approving of the protectiveness 

Killer, Shattered, Swap, Blue, Heart, Cross, Reaper, Swad, Syrah

A little scared of the dog, but warms up eventually

Cherrybomb, Dream, Ink, Ccino, Passive, Template, Fresh

Picks up the dog and moves them so he can hug you without them in the way. Puppy’s not happy about it.

Horror, Nightmare, Pale, Swan

Neutral towards the dog. Will warm up eventually.

or try to at least

🤣 it makes me think about if the reader had a job in cleaning and they just got home and did it on instinct instead of kissing them on the head or something!

“What was that?!” Chases you down.

Red, Geno, Syrah, Ink, Swap, Ccino, Horror, Error, Swan, Template, Bill

The most adorable confused face. “Did I have a spot?”

Blue, Heart, Reaper, Plum, Outer, Dream, Cross, Passive, Swad, Shattered, Pale

Dodges.

Thanks so much and take care of yourself!!!

Hi! 👋

I’m doing pretty good! My prescription sunglasses finally shipped so I’m super happy about that!

Why are you working? He can take care of everything. Stealing or buying, he’s got it covered.

Plum, Fresh, Reaper, Syrah, Nightmare, Dust, Error, Swad, Shattered, Bill

Same. He hates his job. The only reason he works there is for the benefits.

Red, Killer, Cross, Swan

You could come work with him? It may not be your dream job but at least you’ll be in good company.

Outer, Cherrybomb, Swap, Ccino, Horror, Passive

Pats your back reassuringly.

Take a break

Read something happy 

May I request Sanses with a s/o that is a restless sleeper?

Hi! 👋 You too!

You ain’t moving. He’s too tangled around you. 

Passive, Swad, Swan, Shattered, Nightmare, Killer, Dream, Outer, Geno, Fresh, Syrah, Red

Ditto. You two are always waking up with the blankets, and sometimes yourselves, on the floor.

Comic, Blue, Cherrybomb, Ink, Swap

You drive him insane until he gets used to it. It takes him three months.

Got another silly ask here

The Sanses with an S/O that can pull off insane trickshots, an example that comes to mind is that one episode of Gumball where Richard sets off a series of items to have a slice of pizza fly into his mouth xD

Hi! 👋

Begs you to do it all the time. Thinks it’s so cool.

Blue, Heart, Cherrybomb, Ink, Passive, Template, Pale

Tries to out do you and usually fails spectacularly. (Which gets you to laugh so win-win)

Red, Comic, Fresh, Killer, Outer, Bill, Swan, Swad

Calls you irresponsible. (He’s jealous)

Geno, Syrah, Nightmare, Ccino, Error, Shattered

You two have a running competition on who can do the best trick shot.

It is his mission in life to get you to ease up a little. It is your mission in life to get him to at least follow the ‘no murder’ law. 

Plum, Fresh, Nightmare, Killer, Horror, Dust, Swad, Shattered, Bill

Finally someone who understands!

Cherrybomb, Dream, Ink, Blue, Syrah, Template, Cross

He’s slowly chipping away at your strictness and your sanity. You remind him so much of Papyrus that he can’t help but mess with you.

Red, Comic, Heart, Outer, Geno, Reaper

Watches you act out your high strung standards with vague amusement, only redirecting you if you start stressing yourself out over all the rules you follow.

Hope your doing well, anyways, a request! The boys and their s/o are at a picnic with s/o family and one of the really bad and troublesome kids (lovingly) just fell face first into dirt, who's laughing, who's mama hen ASAP, and who's like 'eh, they'll live'.

Hope your resting and eating well, and hopefully your coffee machine got fixed❤️❤️

-🎧

Hi! 👋

Pretty good, actually! Should be completely better soon I hope I got a new coffee machine since the old one was just straight up dead, so I’m appropriately caffeinated for the first time in weeks!

Fussing over them. The little trouble maker has his heart in a death lock. He dotes on them so much.

Cherrybomb, Heart, Dream, Swad, Template, Passive

Laughing his ass off. The stunned kiddo’s face right after they picked themselves up is the funniest thing he’s seen in days. Made the whole picnic worth it.

Geno, Red, Fresh, Error, Bill, Nightmare, Killer

Trying not to laugh. The kid’s surprised hiccup as he sat up and looked around in shock is hilarious, but he doesn’t want to be mean to the kid either.

Reaper, Plum, Outer, Swap, Swan, Cross

Picks them up, brushes them off, sends them on their way with a snack. He’s practically on autopilot.

Syrah, Comic, Blue, Ink, Ccino

Ignoring the whole thing. You barely managed to convince him to come in the first place. 

He hates your frequent apologies and polite nature, but he loves how passive aggressive you can be. He will make fun of your accent for sure.

Red, Geno, Bill, Killer, Horror

You two get along remarkably well. Maybe you just happen to be relaxing to be around? 

Comic, Plum, Cherrybomb, Outer, Dream, Swan, Ccino, Cross, Passive

You two have like, zero outright arguments. You just passive aggressively wash dishes at each other until you feel ridiculous and make up.

Blue, Swap, Dream, Swan, Comic

Finds you unfairly charming. He just wants to make sure you have the most non-problematic life possible.

Heart, Fresh, Reaper, Syrah, Swap, Ink, Pale

Your existence inexplicably annoys him, yet you slowly grow on him like fungus he can get rid of.

-🐝

Hi! 👋

Wow, that’s awful. I’m so sorry that happened. I’ll be praying for you.

You’re going to have to stop him from going anywhere near your neighbors house if you don’t want them and their dogs dead. He gets very attached to him pets, and the fact that their death obviously causes you distress as well only makes the pain worse. He’s also likely to try convincing you to let him bring the chickens indoors to protect them. You’ll need to remind him that it might make them morestressed if he does that. Of course, convincing him of any of this might be hard considering he’s wrapped you completely in blankets and is aggressively trying to soothe you while working himself into a tizzy.

Killer, Dust, Cherrybomb, Error, Shattered, Horror, Ink, Swap, Swan, Pale

He immediately files a report with animal control and the police. And he most definitely has a very strongly worded conversation with your neighbor about keeping their dogs in check. Afterwards he’s frantically bouncing between slathering you in aloe vera, reinforcing the fence, and balling his own eyes out while cuddling you. You’ve found him soothing the chickens in his free time.

Dream, Blue, Cross, Outer, Heart, Red, Comic, Fresh, Cross, Passive, Ccino

Your neighbors will be about to experience several mysterious unlucky events which will result in the loss of their house, the re-homing of their dogs, and probably some emotional damaged. He’s piiiissssed. You’re sad. The little fluff-balls he became reluctantly attached to are dead. And it could’ve been avoided if the damned people had trained their dogs to not go digging through people’s fences.

Spite is a reason

Reality is weird, which is why we are all weird

Swad’s mentality is essentially ‘a person who is trying to adopt/bond with a stray cat but is using dog-owner logic’

Blue is great at flirting as long as he can keep his feelings out of it. Once he’s crossed that line, he’s a mess.

Cross is mostly only anxious internally and with trusted individuals. Externally he switches between formal knight behavior and grumpy dork

The first few weeks of having a genuine crush, Killer is absolutely terrible at flirting. 

How about the Sanses with a S/O that loves to talk about them to just about everyone. The neighbors, the family friend, the random stranger they bumped into, they even do it to the skeleton themselves! S/O cant help it, they love to gush about them! (Gosh help the skeletons if their S/O was on TV)

And if you already potentially done a similar request or would like something different...how about a S/O who has a nervous habit of hiding behind people they are comfortable with. So let say someone comes up to S/O and startles them (unintentionally or not) so S/O yelps and runs right behind the Sanses.

Oh! Oh! And final idea! S/O that baked a delicious dessert of your choice, the dessert is so good the Sanses cant help but always want it, but surprise! It was a trap to get them to come into the room to get scolded for something they did (also your pick on what they did to get scolded for lol)

Thank you, I really enjoy your writing style, have a great day! 🩷

Hiii! 👋

I couldn’t choose, they were all fun!

Covers his face with his hands and tries to melt into the ground. “Can I die now? Can the embarrassment finally kill me please?”

Fresh, Comic, Outer, Dream, Passive, Swap, Ccino, Template, Red

Thrilled about it. Knowing that he takes up so much of your thoughts is definitely a confidence booster for him. (Especially the possessive ones)

Reaper, Syrah, Nightmare, Killer, Horror, Dust, Error, Swad, Shattered, Bill

Smiles through their suffering and dramatically complaints to you in private. He wants to remain unknooowwwn. Please stop, at least three people have walked up to him, knowing who he was before he’d even opened his mouth.

Blue, Heart, Geno, Cross, Swan

“… that’s not normal?”

Plum, Cherrybomb, Ink, Pale

—————

Thinks it’s the cutest thing, and it definitely soothes that need to be seen as your protector.

Fresh, Reaper, Syrah, Plum, Cherrybomb, Ink, Swap, Killer, Swad, Pale, Template

If you’re just startled, and not in any actual danger, he snickers about how much of a scaredy cat you are. If you are genuinely afraid (especially of a person), he goes full guard dog mode.

Red, Nightmare, Horror, Dust, Error, Swan, Shattered, Bill

Slightly worried that your little habit might be a sign of abuse or something, but he’s happy to be your shield if it makes you feel better.

Comic, Blue, Heart, Geno, Outer, Dream, Ccino, Cross, Passive 

————-

Stars have mercy, he’s been bamboozled! Takes the trick in good humor. Can he have some dessert as a reward?

Comic, Outer, Dream, Swap, Ccino, Killer, Horror, Swan

Sulking the whole time. Staring at the floor and kicking his feet like a grumpy teenager. Can he at least have some of the dessert you tricked him with?

Blue, Red, Ink, Passive, Heart, Fresh

He’s pouting. So disappointed that he doesn’t get dessert that the scolding almost doesn’t register.

Error, Cherrybomb, Shattered, Template, Pale, Cross

Deeply amused by your trick. Steals the dessert and escapes his scolding.

Thank you for your work!
