Ash Wednesday!

(ash wednesday is today, if you didn't know.)

How are you? I have a question- does anyone actually look up my recommendations? If you don't, I don't see the point in recommending anything. Please let me know in the comments- feedback is appreciated!

Today, dear viewers, I'm going to talk about Sans the skeleton. From the video game Undertale. I feel it's best to not continue if you:

• abhor spoilers (I'm gonna spoil stuff)
• haven't played Undertale, and want to play it without spoilers
• have played Undertale, but haven't played it more than one of the routes (or in the case of Pacifist, all the way through True Pacifist) and don't want spoilers

So yeah, continue if you DARE. If you wanna comment about the post but your comment contains spoilers, please preface it with [SPOILERS] so people don't get the game ruined. (I take the highest precautions in making sure you don't hear info you don't want.) If it contains spoilers and isn't prefaced, I WILL have it reported as spam. Please be careful, okay? HEY HEY! BUT WAIT! I'll put a line of red where the spoilers end, because I'm gonna talk about some other stuff, 'kay? Just go there for not-spoily stuff and my stuff.

So yeah. Sans. He's pretty awesome. I'll talk about the happy parts before the sad parts. He's the laziest bag o' bones this side of the planet, and always, always wears a blue hoodie. But then again, you probably knew that. If you didn't, LEAVE NOW and at least look him up on the Internet. Anyways, he's really amazing. Sometimes, too amazing. People have been known to have crushes on him or Papyrus, and I've seen a lot of Tumblr fanart that I don't wish to describe. (it was a dare, okay?) I'm not gonna lie, if I encountered him IRL, I'd probably want to date him. In fact, I do indeed have a crush on him. Buuuuut that doesn't justify what people have done to him on the Internet through fanart. I'm not going to say anything, or it would ruin the family-friendly approach I try to take on this blog. (Look it up on your own time if you really want to know. Please don't.) I really like the fact that he's taken so many different forms through AUs, and each type of Sans is different and special. The Christmas Party AU is a good example of this; it's by @loverofpiggies, who's my ultimate senpai. Christmas Party is basically where all the sanses get together for a Christmas Party, accompanied by three Papyri (Papyruses?) and one Gaster. So far, there's Scientist AU, Classic, Underfell, Underswap, Reapertale, and Genocide, although I anticipate more. I'm excited. Too excited, in fact. loverofpiggies is too amazing. They have made approx. half the AUs in the fandom. Seriously. Everything they touch turns into an AU. Anyways, enough about le senpai. Back to Sans. I'm not saying that I have a favorite Sans, because that would be favoritism. (Although I find Underswap unbearably fluffy and want to put him in a big ol' fluffy sweater.) They're all amazing skeletons. Now for the sad parts. Sans is sooo identifiable because, like him, I have undiagnosed depression... and it really isn't fun. I find it unbearably sad that out of all of the characters, Sans never really wants to hurt you. Everyone else only fights you because "humans must die" and all, or because it's for your own good. Sans? He only fights you because you killed Papyrus. Even then, since he knows about the timelines, he recognizes the fact that you were friends before. He even wishes "they" didn't make him do this. It breaks my heart when I watch someone fight him. I'd also like to note that he's really strong, but his HP is only 1. This is because HP doesn't stand for Health, but HOPE. He has barely any hope left after seeing every timeline. But something doesn't fit. He's too strong for one HP. This is where his laziness comes in- sleeping heals HP above max, right? What does he do every day? SLEEP. Anyways, yeah, he's reeeeeally hard to beat. Never gonna play Genocide because I can't handle killing the bae. Sorry not sorry. On the plus side, someone started Cheer Up The Skeleton Week on Tumblr, which is all about cheering up Sans! (we're right in the middle of the week right now, actually.) It's super amazing because he's being happy and cheerful again, and I just want to scream from how happy that makes me. And I identify in so many ways with this guy. We both have younger siblings that we would quite literally die to protect, and die to swear vengeance on who killed them. We're aware of things that never happened (see: my brother being a disembodied spirit who isn't alive or anything), and yeah. Anyways, Sans. Cool guy! End of rant!
