We Hold You In Our Souls, And Now So Does The Sea by CraftyGirl005 (CrypticLoach)
Fandoms: Undertale (Video Game)

Summary
Slowly, he trudges across the landscape. The sand makes no sound as his feet displace it; or maybe he just isn’t paying enough attention to hear it. Either way, the only thing he can focus on is the waves sloshing up the shore.
Killer always loved the ocean.

Summary
Seriously? ‘‘April Fools’’? Why? Why must there be holidays? No, actually, he gets why there’s holidays. The question is: why do his subordinates feel the need to celebrate them? And drag him into it? Why?
— — —
In which Nightmare is nearly pulled into another holiday but instead leaves his subordinates home alone on April Fools Day. This fic is part of a series, but it’s not necessary to read the previous one. Although you probably should because there’s a few references to it in this.
Ch. 1 is Nightmare’s PoV, ch. 2 is Horror’s PoV, ch. 3 is Cross’ PoV, ch. 4 is Killer’s PoV, ch. 5 is Dust’s PoV.

Summary
“My ecto-o isn’t unsummoning.”
He kept his gaze firmly locked on the carpet, refusing to look the other God in the eye. The tentacle in his grasp curled around his radius and ulna, and he squeezed it.
There was an awful, crushing silence for a few moments, before his husband spoke: “…you don’t think..?”
*----*----*
After their mating cycles lined up, the "evil" Gods of Destruction and Negativity find themselves in quite the predicament. They must figure out how to balance their dangerous work with the task of ensuring their baby's development is healthy. That, and they have to ensure the Council does not find out.
No matter what, Ink cannot find out.

Summary
When a child thought they were alone in their darkest hour, strange things happened. Aliens pulled them from the brink, learning lessons no one should have to learn. Now, the adventure of life, the horrors of war and the absolute strange beauty that is Cybertron meet head-on. For better or for worse, Optimus Prime learns how to share his burden. For better or for worse, the human he befriends learns to trust another in ways few have dared to try.
This story began fifteen years ago and lay unfinished, collecting dust. After a massive information loss-and-recovery, I've been re-working it. And it has grown into its own behemoth: A series, and a tie-in ancillary series.

Summary
Dust was on his couch after yet another long day at work when he saw a blinding flash of light in his garden. Getting up he slowly approached the bay window to take a look outside... and saw four strange skeletons dressed as a viking, a noble, a knight and a Roman yelling in foreign languages at each other.
He didn't know why he opened the window nor why he invited them inside, but he did, and by doing so he sealed the beginning of a very weird adventure with his four new roommates...
Dust - Modern Time, speaks English
Horror - Scandinavian Viking, speaks Old Norse
Killer - Ancient Roman, speaks Latin
Cross - Medieval Knight, speaks Old French
Nightmare - 17th cent French Noble, speaks Classical French(Cross-posting on Tumblr ! @/mikimakiboo
Basically a story about the boys coming from different time periods and time traveling together
Short chapters but it allows me not to burn-out too fast :')
Also, time being what it is, I should specify that I did NOT use AI for anything in this story, the languages all come from long researches to translate word by word in some cases, I did it all myself without the use of AI)
