It Was a Translation, Not a Confession (petty imagines #1)
this oneās for all the bilingual/polyglot bitchez out there:
[Y/N is good friends with him, but heās crushing, hard. So is she]
Youāre working on your laptop with him sitting right beside you. Heās listening to music through his headphones. Thereās a comfortable quiet between the two of you. Then, all of a sudden, he lifts up one of the earpieces and turns to you.Ā
āWhat does [______] mean?ā He asks curiously.Ā
You finish typing something out and glance up at him as you respond.Ā āI love you,ā you tell him, without much thought behind your words.Ā
If it was... :
Sans:Ā āuhh... right. thatās--ā He seems to want to look anywhere but you.Ā āiāll uh. iāll just use google next time. you--donāt wanna distract you from work,ā he chuckles nervously.
āHey! Iām a way better translator than google, are you kidding me?āĀ
āyeah no, youāre pretty--pretty handy! but i got it.ā The more he explains himself, the less sense he makes, and the more strained his attempts get. Now that the topicās come up, though... Unfortunately, the way you just casually toss up a date suggestion for the both of you seems to have broken him entirely. The chronically unflappable skeleton is at a loss: a stunned, blue-flushed, blank slate. A glitch in the matrix. This is a win, right...?
Thereās a lot of flustered rambling you canāt bear to interrupt, despite your face growing exponentially hotter. After much external monologuing, he eventually comes to the very solid conclusion that that it is extremelyĀ flattering to be the object of your affections and that okay, potentially, possibly, yes he does seem to have the most curiously strong affection for you as well, and maybe, no, surely, the only solution to all of this chaos is to fix it by promptly going on a date. After your work, of course. You donāt even bother correcting him. The date goes beautifully.
Red:Ā ā...and what does [___] mean?āĀ
You hum thoughtfully, looking back up at him again to answer.Ā āBasically, letās fu--ā
You cut yourself off before you can finish the accidental proposition, blushing hard.Ā āIām going to punch you.ā
āās that what it means? huh. what were ya gonna say bāfore that, though?ā
Edge:Ā ā.......H-HMPH. WELL. ITāS ABOUT TIME YOU REALIZED.ā
āWait, what--ā
āI FORGIVE YOU FOR TAKING SO LONG. I SUPPOSE WE CANāT ALWAYS BE IN TUNE WITH OUR EMOTIONS. I... I AM VERY FOND OF YOUR COMPANY AS WELL. MORE THAN MOST.ā
You flush a deep red as Edge pats your head with affectionate stiffness. Thatās not a misunderstanding you even want fixed, at this point. Continuing work has never been more difficult.
Blue:Ā ā[_____________],ā he responds, with perfect pronunciation. You gape at him. Was he always.... Fluent? Either way, you definitely canāt go back to work, not after youāve just been enthusiastically confessed to like itās any other day. Blue seems content to flip his headphones back on and gives you such a beaming smile that you canāt help but splutter at the audacity. You canāt just--What just happened?
Stretch:Ā āand with you as well... comrade.āĀ
You blink at him. He blinks at you. A lot of blinking ensues. Something about the distinctly chill nature of the skeleton is off this time, disturbed like a ripple in a pond. Workās hard to focus on when you feel like he keeps glancing over. You canāt catch him in the act, though, so...
Slate:Ā ā......thanks.ā He seems satisfied. You go back to work until he asks again. Heās forgotten what it means--you should probably remind him a few more times. And then a few more times after that, too.Ā
Basil:Ā āI LOVE YOU TOO!ā
āWhat? No, I--No--ā This panicked backtracking is really not helping your case.
āNO..?ā Oh my god. You canāt just leaveĀ him looking at you like a kicked puppy.
āI mean--yes!!! Yes, I.. I love you.āĀ
And thatās that. Leave it to Basil to melt through your defenses with pure affection.Ā
Wild:Ā āNO!āĀ
You jerk back from your laptop, startled.Ā āWhat the fuck, Wild?ā
The misunderstandings get worse from there. Itās really only resolved when he sets up his perfect confession to you later to make up for the ill-timed, inadvertent one. Whew! His plans were nearly ruined. Good fast thinking.
Cash:Ā āwe havenāt even had our first date yet.ā
āHar har, very funny,ā you retort, rolling your eyes.
āso this friday, then.ā
???
āour first date. grillbyās. iāll pick you up at 4.ā
???????????????????
āfine, fine, youāre really pullinā my femur here, but... itās on me.ā
āI, I, that, okay, but--Cash, what th--ā
āperfect. donāt stay up too late thinking of me, babe.ā
..............Youāll try your best, you guess..?

omg lol u donāt have to reply to this but itās me again š the one who sent like a million asks before. No i am not in fact dead and i still check ur profile pretty frequently 2 see if youāve posted so š hi ššš
OMG OG ANON!!! HIIIIII
I hope you've been well! Very glad to see you aren't dead haha
thanks for checking in <3
Hi there! Iām a new reader and let me just say, both your old and new writing is absolutely amazing. Itās all so natural and I love the dialogue, itās very grounded. As someone who writes on occasion I know how it feels to be nit picky at your old work but I think itās always good to look at it and still find some form of appreciation in it! Anyways yeah thatās it, keep up the amazing work homeslice š«¶š«¶
HI HELLO thank you very much for this ask/comment
That is so relieving to hear, made my heart feel warm <3
'ppreciate you anon homeslice hope you have the best day wherever you are!!!
āThereās still magicā is probably one of my favorites, but Iām sure youāve already heard of it, haha.
āLiving in a storybookā by āExultantIcarusā is one Ive read more than once. It was last updated last year on October 11th, though, so Iām not sure if itās still ongoing.
āRotten to the Boneā by āartificial_voidā is also good! It was last updated pretty recently, which is another thing I like.
This one isnāt exactly a reader insert, but itās one of my favourites. āFull Deckā by āSons_of_Sirensā will always have a place in my heart.. š„²
And of course, yours. Iāve re-read it a few times now, and I love the ranch scene. And the scene where MC lies about her sister to Red. And like, the entire thing.
Okay, thatās all! Cya!
fav author is a title I absolutely do not deserve but wow thank you so much for saying so alkdfjalsdk
And for these recs!!! I've been wanting some solid reader insert undertale fics recently so this is perfect.
if anyone else has any to rec please send em in!!! frothing at the mouth at all times for a good read
it's definitely going Ź ā¢į“„ā¢Ź
hope you and everyone are doing well!!!
I have an insane headache rn but music is keeping me going--what do y'all like to listen to? I'm curious >.>

Yo i hope you are having a sans-ational day, I was just wondering if you are coming back for āitās best served coldā Iāve literally been obsessed with it since I first found it like last year, and I just wanted to know if itāll be updated any time this year?
Hi I just read your other ask as well and I am very flattered you liked it enough to come on here and ask T^T
Tysm for your patience and kind words--I will finish it someday I swear--general update schedule doesn't exist for me but I'm planning to update BSC this month!
Hi Petty! I hope you don't mind long comments. Just thought I'd ask because it varies from author to author. And I may or may not have accidentally went overboard with my comment in BSC.
Hey!! Absolutely do NOT mind how long comments are :-)
Glad you liked it enough to write a long comment! Actually (super sercret), long comments are my favorite kind bc I get to see more what you guys are like and what you're thinking! I love interacting with readers <3
The only thing I ask for comments is to please be respectful--no hate speech, cursing me out, being rude, or generally awful things. I will not hesitate to block you^^
petri⦠itās me⦠the same anon who sent those asks from before⦠iām still here š„² iāll wait for u forever baefy . your writing is too good for me to give up on
Hahaha... Hello to everyone who has been occasionally sending messages and checking my posts on here, and apologies for my online death since 3 years ago
Let's just say college people are some freaky mfs.
The most commonly asked question! Will BSC and Home be continued??! YES d( ̄ā½ļæ£*)
Yes, they will be--despite my updating schedules being all over the place, I still plan to finish both fics eventually: so sorry to keep you beautiful people waiting.
I've been struggling to update them bc atp my own writing feels so foreign to me. Every time I reread things I wrote years ago I get so nitpicky and want to change everything up;;; (Which is why I've been active on ao3 recently, working on new fics to get myself back in the groove of posting and writing chapters)
Thank you for your patience and support friends! (I'm going through my asks immediately after this)
ALSO! (sry for the spam :cry:) do u happen to have any good anti-harem recs ?? ive SCOURED ao3 for fics and have read like all the ones i could find on the anti-harem tag. since u are a good writer ive deduced that you must also have good taste !! if its not too much trouble, could u list some fics u like if there are any ?? if not thats also ok i love you petty ( i had to take that from ur profile. before that i was referring to you as petri .. as in like, petri dish - in my head. sorry )
haha no worries! hmmmmm I love the idea of anti-harems, but unfortunately I've not gotten the chance to search in-depth for them... If y'all have got recs, PLS send them in (I'm always happy to fuel my obsessions hahaa)
I mean I have fics that I've enjoyed, but I don't think they're anti-harem ones T^T I'm sorry (except for There's Still Magic, which Best Served Cold was inspired by):
These are our Days by Rehlia (and the accompanying fic, The Days Between) --my god what a satisfying fic to finish. *chef's kiss* this changed me. not an exaggeration
The Party Incident and Other Embarrassing Anecdotes by poubelle_squelette --the humor in this is outstanding.
It's Raining Somewhere Else by clueless_nameless --gghghh talk abt tENsIon
Aggre(g/v)ation by Llama_Goddess --goddam the FEELS
The Glitch by LazyRainDancer was recommended to me but haven't had time to read it yet :'[
Dirty Laundry by popatochisp --god this one's so good.
Broken Souls by Willowwind101 --very interesting premise!! kinda addictive

ahhh!!!! i read both ur stories a while back andsaw youd been inactive on tumblr for a while :( !! i used to check in nearly daily cuz my dumb brain didnt know how to turn on post notifications but i slowly stopped after a while. for some reason, i decided to check in again and saw that you posted ?! TWICE?! i am SOO hyped ! u are like my fav author and i lovelove LOVE ur stories ! im glad bth stories r still ongoing and im excited to see what'll happen!! frm your BIGGEST FAN ! srz othr anons ;)
!! aww, yeah. I haven't been posting stuff for a while on here (though I do have some unfinished post drafts lool) but I do my best to respond to all asks asap! so if you wanna talk/ask sth, tumblr is ur best bet :-)
that being said, gahhhh TYSM for all the lovely words!!! it's really nice to hear that ppl still wanna see what'll happen next^^ I'll do my best to make it interesting!!
Hey! I was a little hesitant to send in an ask at first, but I saw that you replied to the other ask soo.. here I am! Iām here from your Ao3 account as well, but from the other story (though I definitely enjoyed āBest Served Coldā as well š), āHomeā. Is that story ongoing as well, or has it been discontinued?
On a seperate note, I hope college isnāt working you to the bone (Ha ha). Remember not to let yourself get too carried away with assignments and such! You need a break too!
Woah!!! Thank you so much for deciding to ask! I didn't realize people were still reading 'Home', to be honest. Regardless, it's definitely ongoing because I still have so much I want to write for it!! The progress, like 'Best Served Cold', might be quite slow because of other stuff I'm going through, but both of the works are absolutely not going to be dropped. :-)
