Summary
"In this world, perseverance is the most reliable thing you can have." The king wearily laughed.
Ink stared at him as he tried to comprehend the words. Perseverance? Although it made sense, it only seemed to contribute to his rising alarm. How could he possibly thrive if perseverance was the most reliable aspect someone could have; an aspect he woefully lacked?
(My very own AU idea. I suck at titles. And creativity. Took me forever to finally come up with a title and I'm still unsure about it. I hope you enjoy the story anyway, despite all the problems. Also, I am a veeery slow writer, so please keep in mind updates will be slow. Most of the characters go to their respective owners.)

Summary
Apocalypses have a way of sneaking up on you. You could turn around one day, and oops, there it is; a cataclysmic event that ends life as you know it. Other times, it's gradual. You feel it coming. But whether because of cowardice or a simple acceptance that you can't do anything to change the outcome, you turn a blind eye; choosing to live life in the present and pretend as if everything is okay. At least until it all ends.
Well, Error doesn't have time to dwell on regrets or vain thoughts of what he could have done differently. He's got a mission. "Project Save the Multiverse" rests solely on the shoulders of him and Ink. But Error isn't scared. If anyone can save the multiverse, it would be them! All he has to do is have a little bit of faith and a whole lot of patience. With Ink by his side, Error knew they could do anything.

The Good, the Bad, and the Magical Doomsday Device by PastelAspirations

Summary
Having a mortal enemy is so tiring. Imagine, you have a very super special, important job to do that is absolutely imperative that you do not mess it up. You have to succeed, failure is not an option. Then, imagine, the worst guy ever who makes it his life's mission to screw you over shows up, then absolutely throws all your plans out the window and now, you are mega failing when you were mega succeeding.
Or, imagine you are just minding your own business, having a rather peaceful day, then all of a sudden, the most annoying, scatterbrained twerp you know comes and ruins it. But he's acting strange. He's all jumpy and weird. Would you tell him to screw off or would you investigate? You have been kind of bored lately... Why not have a little fun?
That is the conundrum that Error and Ink find themselves in. Now, it's a race against time to find this strange little doomsday device before the other one does. Which one will win? Which one will come out on top after everything is said and done?
Well, may the best god win.

Summary
They say writing letters can help. Sometimes, just getting the words down on a page and out of your head can bring people catharsis. It may allow them a chance to somewhat come to terms and heal from the grief that won't leave them.
Ink doesn't understand it. But what the hell, he might as well try.

Summary
Having a family brings about unforeseen challenges, but Error and Ink worked out a system. A system that works well for their charming little family, anyway. Error stays home and watches the kids while Ink does his ever-pressing job, and vice versa on the rare occasions Error has to clock in. Error doesn't mind; the more time he gets to spend at home on the couch, the better. Even if his bunch of kids can give him a headache sometimes.
One day, this flawless system comes to a screeching halt when Error realizes he completely forgot about his promise to the vengeful King of Darkness. It's just his luck that the day he is all alone with the kids is the day he has to go help a fickle guardian with this week's malicious heist plan, huh?
Well, you win some, you lose some. "Bring your kids to work day?" Bringing them to a heist you completely forgot you promised to do counts as "work" too, right?

Summary
So, basically, this is where all my fluffy stories of the UTMV will be if I write them. Imagine. This is a big ball of fluffy, pink cotton candy, with only smudges of black soot sprinkled on top and throughout it. It is still mostly the ball of a pleasing, gentle pink color, and the black soot is just here and there, giving the cotton candy some "depth."
The cotton candy, in this metaphor, is sweet, wholesome, heart-fluttering fluff. And the soot is sad, perhaps crushing, heart-sinking angst. So, to sum up, the stories of the Undertale Multiverse included in this series will mostly be cute fluff, with some angst sprinkled in for some character development. :D
(Obligatory warning that "Not all stories included in this series will have continuity with each other. Some might, but please do not assume that all the stories will be in the same multiverse or continuity." These are only included in the same series because I do fluff so rarely, that it seemed fitting to put them in a place where people can easily access them smh)

SCUA (Shattered Cinematic Universe Apparently) by PastelAspirations
Fandom Undertale (Video Game)
25 Dec 2024
Summary
This is the connected "cinematic" universe that will contain all my Shattered one shots that are connected with each other and share the same faulty, out of character headcanon that I have for him. The correct term is "connected literary universe," but putting "cinematic" is way funnier. THIS WASN'T INITIALLY PLANNED, OKAY, BUT. SHATTERED JUST HAS MY BRAIN IN A CHOKEHOLD, SEND H E L P-

Summary
"There's only two things in this world you can be, the one that perseveres, or the one whose body is left for the beasts." The stable hand stated weakly.
Ink curled up beside him and tried to ignore the sounds outside his little sanctuary, the rattling of his shaking bones doing little to cover them. He picked at the spaces between his phalanges and stared unseeingly into the stalls across from them. Perseverance? The concept felt so foreign to his young and shaken mind.
How could he possibly persevere when it felt as if he was unraveling?
(A swap au of my dear friends' multi-chapter fic, Perseverance. Detailing a scenario where Asgore had not found Ink on that last search party, and Ink was forced to survive outside the kingdom walls. You do not have to read Perseverance to enjoy this fic.)

Bookmarker's Notes
AAAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCKKKKKKK, LET'S GOOOO, IT FINALLY HERE-
A swap au of my fic that explores the idea of what if Ink was never found by Asgore and some people found him instead? And what if Error was the clueless, fish out of water, "can't catch food to save his life" dum dum on the outside?? M m m m, juicy idea heheh
This fic does take a few creative liberties from "canon" or how I would have written a Perseverance swap au. If I wrote it, everybody would have swapped. Everybody inside of Kingdom Ivy?? They on the outside now and vice versa. Dev said that was too ambitious. And honestly, understandable-
BUT ANYWAY, YEAH, IT TAKES A FEW CREATIVE LIBERTIES. For instance, Ink is more animal-like in this fic than I would write him, Error is a Catcher when I probably would have kept him as a Couloir, and Ink is surprisingly a better namer than I make him. Canon Perseverance Ink would have named Sablewren "Cookie" or some crap, 100% I swear smh
But y e e. This fic is good to read when you want more Perseverance au brainrot. Just remember, kids; it's not a Dev au unless Ink has a tail and digitigrade legs! ;D

Summary
Ink's always been incredible at worrying about things that don't matter and seeing things that aren't actually there. But when Error falls sick, it is almost immediately obvious that Ink is not imagining the severity of his condition.
Now it's up to him to make Error see that.

SCREEEAAMMMINNGGG, OH MY GOOOOOOSSSSHHHH, MAN. FIRST GIFT FIC, LET'S GOOO ;_; And first not privated bookmark lmao. N o, you guys aren't seeing my bookmarks, man. Those are only between me and God-
Freaking amazing story inspired off of mine written by the maddest of lads, best friends ever. I am being thrown for a l o o p here. An angsty AU of Perseverance that explores what might happen if uh... Error got infected. >:) WHICH IS SO VERY INTERESTING, SO THANKS FOR THE IDEA, HONEY- Just kidding. Enjoy, love and cherish this fic please, like I did. It explores an idea that mine won't ever really... follow as I have no plans of turning Error, despite how deliciously angsty that would be. (Rejoice, Perseverance enjoyers. Canon tidbit from me, Error won't be turning. There are ways I can hurt him without turning him into a beast.)
Overall, 10/10 fic, will be rereading and cherishing for all of time. <3 Like, literally. I am on my way to reread it right now, do not test me-
