DAY 3 - Fairy tales: The Emperor’s New Clothes + childhood friends to lovers

--------------

Sans was snipping away at nothing in front of him. Scissors flying back and fort gracefully as they cut through the resistless nothingness, dancing around in a magical display of skill.

Only a complete fool would think he was actually cutting nothing! Of course not! Sans was one of a pair of the craftsmen in the Fell kingdom, their work impossible to be seen or appreciated by the foolish or incompetent. While Sans cut away at the magical cloth, his partner was busy waiving the cloth for their most important victim customer, the King of Monsters Fellgore.

Sans and Red met young, barely old enough to totter around on their own, and quickly became friends, doing everything together. They punned and pranked, played tricks and spooks, and every other kind of mischief on the monsters around them since they could talk. Now they were here, doing what they were best at the highest level this kingdom had to offer.

Lost in thought as he contemplated how successful their newest endeavor seemed to be going, Sans didn't notice it had gotten quiet behind him. The clicks and clacks of the loom coming to a halt, filling the large room they were using as their workshop with silence.

Suddenly, a piece of the finest silks covered Sans' skull from behind, making him yelp and jump, causing him to drop the scissors. Before he could panic, a loud booming cackle filled the room, and all Sans could do was chuckle along.

Red got him again.

The edgier of the pair was leading in his pranks now, so Sans would need to put in some more effort to get him back. No matter, they had all the time in the world given the nature of their current venture.

Instead of shaking the silk off him and throwing it in Red's face, Sans quickly turned around and caught his partner in crime around his waist. This time it was Red who let out a surprised squeak as he grabbed Sans' arms to steady himself.

They stood like that for a few moments, only the thin fine silk between them, eyelights glowing bright enough to shine through the thin material. Their teeth were so close to touching, they could feel each other's breath, undeterred by the thin barrier.

Sans could see a soft red light start to dust Red's cheeks, but only for a moment, as a skeletal hand suddenly filled his vision.

"get off ya bonehead," Red stuttered growled as he pushed Sans' face back.

Sans only laughed at the rejection. It didn't matter.

He knew Red would soon be his, since the success of this venture carried an important promise with it. A promise Sans was working his bony ass off to achieve. And a promise Red was working just as hard on, no matter how much he pretended he wasn't doing anything to contribute.

The promise would finally tie Red to him as more than just childhood friends. And while he wanted that to already be reality, Sans was a patient monster, he could wait however long was needed to get his greatly coveted prize.

After all, mates were a forever thing.

HIII COG 👋👋👋

i (very obviously) love drawing the skeleton brothers the most!

but i love drawing the humans second, and the dreemurrs third!!!!!! they are soooooo fun to draw

as for tropes, i don't really have a particular one i like in terms of classic? i more of enjoy just drawing my favorite parts of it over and over again

for more emphasis on the last line, i have multiple pieces that is literally centered around the sans fight. not in terms of the black and white sprite scenes but more of reimagined in the judgement hall! (it was my only motivation to draw backgrounds)

for style ive been enjoying rendering my flats (or cel-shaded work) which is......very Not Good but i find the cleanup process fun and satisfying!!

looks: somewhat attractive | eh | not really my type | pretty | handsome | beautiful | stud | gorgeous | SWEET LORD MERCY

The sense of style does it for me again, albeit reluctantly. I’m not ashamed to say I love the look of a fucker who crawled out of Hot Topic but I do kind of need him to tie his shoe laces. I can’t imagine moving past the cool zipper and the teeth, but also, the red eyeliner. Absolutely perfect. There’s also the fun fits that the creator has drawn him in which are equally interesting! Handsome boy. I’d probably have the same rating for the different varieties fanon breeds.

relatability: no | not really | somewhat | yes | they are me

I understand some of the motives/behaviors he has.

date/befriend if they were real?: total bros | friends | best friends | date | become their steady boyfriend/ girlfriend | neither | i don’t kno

For @sin-cognito , Whose tag isn't working properly for some reason. You wanted me to post this one, despite how short and silly it is. I added 3 sentences for you, for all your sweet comments! <3

Blue looked down at his feet, following closely with Sans' movements, trying to stay focused. "How did you get so good at this?"

Sans only huffed and Blue looked up to a small smile as he was pulled closer, their foreheads pressed together. Their dance slowed down to a sway as Blue wrapped his arms around Sans' neck. "i don't know. which probably means...”

He buried his face into Sans' neck and closed his eyes. "Don't think too hard about it."

"heh. alright." There was still a tenseness to his body, but his thumbs stroked the edges of Blue's hip bones. He could find ways to pull his mind back to the present... Blue shivered as he chuckled, leaning forward to rest fully against Sans.

I slapped these two together since brothers, and same palette, plus I love drawing them together. So, here they are! The Short King, and Trash King ❤ 

Mermaid Doodle - Day 12: Eel mermaid Alphys

That’s a very cool idea and I always liked the headcanon that her magic/power/soul was somehow connected to electricity. An electric eel was a very fun thing to draw, especially with how its big fin is mostly on the underside. Somehow she turned out golden and I like that effect!
