Just SING | Sans X Reader

author's note

i told myself i would never reinstall wattpad again but here i am bc of a stupid post that reminded me this story exists and it's as if i went through the 4 stages of grief in 2 minutes, 4 because i'm excluding acceptance

don't know how many people are gonna see this part but who cares honestly, congrats if you're still here i guess??

i'm 17 now btw lmfao imagine, i wrote this dumb fic 5 years ago and now it has 200k views and i guess y'all were just forced to read this bc you ran out of sans x readers to read?¿¿? idk lol

i re-read the story last night and i want to share how fucking pissed i am at my pre-teen self because of this book that i've unfortunately written on this god-forsaken app

first point:
why the fuck did i have to make frisk a girl in this story??? i vaguely remember thinking that i would make frisk a girl because i wouldn't know how to use they/them properly when referring to them in a situation where there are multiple people. surprise surprise i did know how to use they/them, shown in multiple instances throughout this book 😭 referring to toriel when the character's name wasn't revealed yet, referring to the snowman (i think?? i was skimming), i just. what the fuck. i was so stupid?? i'm sorry 😩 also this is a little off-topic but i've come to realize i identify as non-binary and i use any pronouns (most preferably they/them) happy pride month

second point:
there are lots of spelling and grammatical errors in this book that could have been avoided with just a little bit of proofreading istg I EVEN CONFUSED "PUNCHLINE" WITH "PICKUP-LINE" I DIDN'T even bother to search it up goodbye 🛸🏃 and y'all wouldn't leave me alone with that one spelling error i made with the word "great", i wrote greag instead PLS

third point:
i made problematic scenes in this story. like at least one. y'all probably know which one i'm talking about. i'm so sorry what the fuck. 2017 was not a good year for me (i don't think it was a good year for anyone)

fourth point:
i told myself i wanted to make a slow-burner with plot and fluff. this book definitely isn't a slow-burner cause holy fuck that shit with frisk and the hug deal 🧍 and hugging in bed shit more than once 🏃🏃🏃  just because it has 30 parts doesn't mean it's slow, 12-year old me!! like each chapter was more or less 1k words and that's not a lot if you think about it!!! it took me one night to read the whole thing (i was skim-reading some parts tbh but you wouldn't spend more than a day reading this if you read everything in one sitting) i'm just 🧍🧍🧍 🛸🏃 goodbye. all this was was filler, cheesy moments, and ugh i'm sorry 🧍 though i might get back into writing again. all i've been doing is art, baking, and playing games. i need to find another fandom so i can practice my writing skills once more 👍 no i don't want to get back into dsmp/minecraft youtube i fucking hate twitter i'm done with that shitty app

fifth point:
i'm so confused why i made alphys sans's ex. why? why????? why was that neededd????!!! huh?? i don't think it would make sense for sans to have multiple relationships (all failed in the story but still) i mean have you SEEN the guy jesus christ

sixth point:
yeah i got confused too about the humans vs monsters war on the 8th birthday of the reader when that war was a long long time ago like i guess i just wanted to make drama?? that did not make sense, my bad but i am pretty sure i was writing the story as i went and it's hard to make a cohesive plot when you're immediately publishing and writing as you go. i was taking inspiration from a lot of other sans x readers i read in the past like i think i really loved "hello, doll"? i forgot the name. too lazy to look it up again. but it was a g!sans x reader and the writing was so good to me. i also took inspiration from when two souls meet?? i think that was the title, as i said i can't be bothered to look it up but i loved that book so much

seventh point:
toriel was such a bland character in this story or is that just me?? it was so boring to read her dialogue hfbskawvsc like all i did was lift lines from the game i think??? i didn't bother to make her character more dynamic?? i really just wanted to skip to the "good part" huh 🛸🏃 bye

eighth point:
why was there a need to fuse sans and gaster towards the end?? i forgot. i think it had something to do with like.. all the sans x reader fics i wrote were connected with eachother and they're just different timelines sorta merging together?? cause i wrote a g!sans x reader idk if i finished that but i'm just fuck idk i didn't think that through 🧍

ninth point:
i don't think i wrote frisk as a great character either. actually i don't think i wrote anyone as good characters?? they (frisk) were just a device to ship reader and sans. a lot of characters just existed to further their relationship. frisk didn't seem to have any dimension to them except "#1 fan of sans x reader ship otp" like how does it make sense that they would want a good relationship for sans if they were also not on good terms with sans because of the genocide shit?? huh?? like bruh what. sans was not a very great character either like i wrote that he makes such terrible decisions despite living through so much, you would expect he would have a mind to make better choices

tenth point:
i'm so sorry for not making the reader's gender ambiguous. i made the reader specifically female. i think i was really just writing this as a self-indulgent piece. i didn't take into account that readers could have different genders, hair styles, heights, body types, and even skin tones bruh i'm just 🧍 when i wrote this story i was a 4'10"-11" kinda chubby pale-skinned asian with long hair and then some time while writing i cut my hair to shoulder length irl. so the reader in the story was myself. which is why i think the hair became short in the reader drawings i inserted into later chapters but at the start of the book the hair was long?? idk if i remember that correctly. i also didn't research sans's canon height if there actually was one i just made him "a couple inches taller than the reader" and that posed issues for a lot of people who were really tall or really short 🛸🏃

eleventh point:
i hate myself because of the soul "weird feelings" part. self explanatory. god

maybe i missed some things that i was pissed off about while reading, i probably did. i was cringing and near crying tears of embarrassment from reading. pain.

overall i don't like this book. at times it was okay i guess but mostly it was not okay?? a lot of this book is just cheesy and nonsensical filler (i even spent one whole chapter just lifting lines from a john mulaney skit come fucking on that was cheap) the reader in the story is kind of overpowered with all the "special abilities" of their soul and it didn't make sense for them to have that many abilities. why would faith of all traits be overpowered? explain??? and i didn't even explain why their soul was like that in relation to the plot like why would reader have such a powerful soul?? what was their significance? family history? lore??? am i not seeing something????

if you like this book then good for you! that doesn't mean your taste is bad. everyone has different tastes and opinions and my opinion is that this book could have been so much better, i learned about so many things that i should not do again from reading this

* i might start writing an original book or fanfiction on ao3 i can't remember if my username there is "artsyyy" or "alsoangle" but yeah ask me anything ig.

MAYBE i'll write on wattpad instead but is wattpad even good anymore?? i remember leaving this site because they changed so much stuff like you could only have 2 books in your offline library ??  i'll do some research about that later, i'm still doing art commissions rn lmao my instagram is "angle.pt" if ur interested in looking at my art, aight goodbye
