"It's gone, gone. Baby it's all gone."-

Here's a sneak peak on what I have been working on in the last couple of weeks.

No audio until I finish roughing out the next part

OOOOoooohh boy! You know I am!! I was excited from the moment Mia found my blog tbh. I had looked up to Mia in a sense and now I’m glad to have a chance to crossover with her and be considered her friend. I know it’s gonna be a while (I believe Mia said she was planning on having the crossover with AtDFF happen around the time AFAC crosses over with Ask Drunk Chara story wise) but I am so, so, so excited. 

I am also excited to see the ACAF and AFAC crossover (which I’m presuming would happen around the MWSIH crossover in ACAF’s story and after the current wrestling arc for AFAC). It will definitely be interesting to see ACAF Chara meet Charakterny skele Chara (AFAC Chara). One because, Skeleton Chara. Very cool. And secondly because well, you have to admit a Chara in the role of Frisk (often times a nicer, sweeter Chara) meeting a Chara from a classic variant (to the Swap Chara, it’d be like meeting a version of themselves that acts like their Frisk, however the audience actually knows that the Swap Chara is the one who acts differently from the standard of the Classic Chara) would be interesting. Anyways, I’m rambling.

Also even in Ish Chara likely won’t ever meet AFAC skele Chara (she likely won’t even meet a skele Frisk), it would be interesting if or when she did. Ish Chara might have been to some different AUs, however she’s never meet a skeleton version of themself or Frisk. I can’t wait for Ish Chara and the rest of the DF kids to meet ACAF Chara and the rest of the ACAF crew. Sometimes I imagine a few possibilities of how it could go when I let my mind wander. 

Anyways, sorry for the long answer. I’m just really excited. Yee.

(Frequently asked questions and other information)

What is this blog?

It's an underswap ask blog comic based on @askfriskandcompany . From the beginning I got Trash Queen's blessing. Many themes story elements, back stories and characters come from there. It's not a direct remake in swap style. The broad strokes are the same, but due to the nature of ask blogs and the fact that the askers know things ahead of time, I expect certain things to turn out differently. That's the fun of it!

Undertale is by Toby Fox.

What will the swap be like?

My goal is to keep the core of the characters the same (ie: Chara likes chocolate) while moving them around to a new destiny. To see how putting a character in a different situation would change them, and in turn change the situation. Kinda a nature vs nurture deal.

The ships remain the same, because everyone's heart/ attractions are the same, and I think it would be weird to do it some other way.

Not everything in the world is swapped, (mostly because that would be super complicated) but a few key things are, things that might be funny or interesting. But History (besides some dates and maybe names due to interference from the monster war) is not swapped. All the wars and things happened the same, ended the same, and had the same impact on the world.

List of swaps I have so far: Chara/ Frisk, Sans/ Papyrus, Toriel/Asgore, Alphys/ Undyne, Asriel (Flowey, Maverick Chaos Dragon)/ MK (Tem, Maverick Kayos Drake), mettaton(hapstablook)/ Napstablook(napstaton), nicecream guy/ burgerpants, Bratty n Catty/ Otto n Owen (RG 1 and 2), Grillby/ Muffet, Shop Bunny/Hotel Bunny

People I don't think I will swap: Onion-san, Gerson, Jerry, The Royal Guard Dogs, Mad Mew Mew(mad dummy), Amalgamates. However small details about them may have changed for example, Gerson "hit the jackpot" and became an eccentric millionaire and bought whatever Chara sold him, sometimes randomly changing the price on something he "had to have." You can also choose to donate to his scholarship program for Rowdy teens and after 1000 G the college sends him exclusive historical armor which he will sell to you at a discount if you have died in battle a lot. (It's not like you paid for the armor, your donations were a small percent of his donations)

Will there be a dub/ can I dub it?

Yes!!! I'm doing a dub now, on my YouTube channel miamouse!

If you or someone you know would like to dub it, I would love to hear it!!! I ask you to let me know ahead of time, credit me as Miamouse with a link back to the blog. Maybe send me a link to your video if you can! I wanna seeeeee!!!!

Fanart?

Same rules! I would love to see it!!!! Tag me, either with this blog or @miamouse-va or you can submit it directly. I would not like to see heavy gore or sexual content. Don’t do it. Don’t be weird.

Memes are ok. Go for it!

How do I send an ask that can be in the comic?

Please use the ask feature. There should be a link on top of the blog. Not submit, not in the notes, not fanmail, not YouTube comments. I'll do my best to answer questions from there, but the ask feature has the format I need for the comic, ya know?

Try to keep it current to what is going on. Make sure you read the whole comic before asking! Try not to get too off topic as well (a little is probably ok) changing the subject is fine in moderation.

It's ok to send a couple variations but please don’t spam the same thing!!

Keep it clean. Minimal swearing, please. Nothing weird or gross.

Keep in mind that I may not be able to use your ask, even if it meets the criteria. I can only use so many. Or maybe I'm saving it for later. Just gotta get lucky, I guess.

Crossover with AFAC????!!!

TQ said she was down. It would be some time after her current arc, and sometime after Blue Echoes (current arc). We've discussed some ideas but obviously I can't say much because spoilers!

Other crossovers?

Sorry, no Man Who Speaks In Hands or Ask Drunk Chara. I don’t want to do that to either Rei or Hawker. They are both done with their comics and burnt out on Undertale. It wouldn't make sense anyway. Ima let them rest. I did get permission to use Afac Harlow Garamond, but that's a different matter entirely.

I am also planning one with @askthedreemurr-fontfamily !! (Please read their comic!!! And Ask Young Chara too)That one has a good vibe and they have portals and visitors to their world so crossing over is not such a stretch. I dont know what the crossover would be about or when it could take place, but we'll talk about it later. There’s a lot to figure out. (I'm thinking it would serve the same purpose as the drunk Chara crossover)

Other crossovers besides that? Maybe. Crossovers are hard.

Send stuff to characters??

I have a chocolate pile in my corner of the 4th wall zone where askers can send normal (technically magical, and can be various degrees of dark) chocolate bars. Up to 10. That I may send to Chara's fridge one at a time as needed and in a way that is not suspicious. No other chocolate please. No matter how clever. They can't stand out!! I'm at 50+ right now. [CHOCOLATE BOX IS CLOSED]

There is also Toriel's Recipe Binder that you can add recipes to!! You can send as many cleaver recipes as you want! (Just not duplicates, for example I revealed that Frisk likes strawberry cake and I got a couple of those, in which case I will take the first one) It works because her binder was made so that anyone from the house can put in their own recipes so it could be a compilations. So new recipes that suddenly appear there, aren't much of a surprise.

Other things should be sparingly. Like the nicecream someone sent Hermann. Something simple and not too big, expensive or OP. I don't get them from the garbage( a personal choice) my Character Mia Mouse is a Therapist and buys them with her money. So it should be things that are reasonably affordable and easy to obtain that exist in that world.

Asker powers?

Since when were you in control? For real though, you have some limited powers to say things, mage hand stuff. send minor things. influence the course of events. but anything you want to do is always over-ridden by Miamouse powers. i drive this crazy train. I can allow or deny whatever i dang well please.  

Update schedule?

>_>; once a month or more often if I can. [Though sometimes I lose track of time all together,] I don't have a consistent day or anything. I go at my own pace, and that tends to be kinda slow. I have 2 real life jobs that takes a lot of my energy. I also have the dubs to do. Also I get distracted by video games frequently. This is a fun project/ hobby and I'm not gunna let myself get overwhelmed by it.

Commissions?

Possibly! Message me @true-miamouse for details. 

Fowey the Flowers?

They live in a greenhouse and Asgore tends to them. they’re not much for conversation and won’t play much of a role.

Why no Grayscale?

Technically, it was never AFAC that was black and white, it was the askers who were colorblind. That changed when Alphys poked the portal while MWSIH Asriel was busy Being rainbow hyper death, (this effected several adjacent universes!)

One Watsonian explanation could be that this event also effected ACAF universe but it is on a different time scale than AFAC so it changed the color blindness prior to Chara getting a blog.

Another Watsonian explanation could be that Erica who controls the AFAC camera, was blind in life and possibly colorblind as a ghost?,(not physically nothing afflicted her anymore,) but she just didn’t realize she was missing anything before that event. In ACAF, Paolo controls the camera, and with their glasses, they can see fine.

The Doyalistic reason is that Trashqueen chose not to color the comic early on, and changed her mind later. And I simply chose to have things colored from the beginning. In the end, it’s just a personal preference.

Name all the characters favorite XYZ!

this kind of question is hard to answer. especially all the characters at once.. maybe i should make stat cards with heights, age, b-day, favorite color, song, food, Disney movie, game, anime etc. but for now, please don’t be sad if this type of ask doesn’t get through. it’s just that it’s overwhelming.

Why isn’t this like other underswaps? 

it’s not supposed to be. i wanted it to only loosely be the idea of under swap. not any particular canon. for example: Napsta Blook became Napstaton instead of Napstabot. why? because that’s just the name they wanted when they became a robot. Alphys wields ninja tools instead of an axe. why? obviously it’s because she’s a weeb. Sans doesn’t like to be called Blueberry. things like that. i want this to be a little more me flavored, ya know? 

Is the underground different?

A little, here and there. but mostly it looks the same. each area has a new name because Toriel named it tho. Home= Timeless Gardens, Snowdin=Winter Wood, Waterfall= Glittering Falls, Hotland= Sizzling Springs, The Core = El Nucleo, and New Home = Quiet Gardens. One interesting difference is that Blue Echo Flowers do not exist, and instead, Red Echo Flowers live near lava.

Link to the Discord here!

So funny thing is! Gentster and MWSIH Gasters are two different characters in the Echo Video, so purely because of time restraints I picked @man-who-speaks-in-hands‘s Gaster and will be drawing Gentster another time.

Thank you for the ask Anon!
