    Summary

    "See, all we have to do is put our savings in this here jar! Eventually, we'll have saved enough to buy anything we set our minds to!" Partitio declared proudly.

    Osvald, at last, spoke. Perhaps his silence had been forcibly broken by exasperation, because the professor's voice was even more brusque than usual. "...One hundred thousand leaves. For a boat that has yet to even be fully built."

    Either Partitio failed to notice the tone, or he was willfully ignoring it as he merrily patted the jar. "That's right!"

    "That is–"

    "What a wonderful idea." Temenos interrupted serenely.

    Summary

    Dr. Liu,

    Got your final report yesterday on Project LV-426. I'm amazed. Great work all around. It's been forwarded to the Chair, our friends at the Pentagon, the Defense Appropriations Committee, and DARPA. The acid-resistant armor is something that should really catch their eye.

    We're expecting some big grant money from this.

    Burke

    Burke,

    Did you read even the executive summary of my report? There are some interesting biomaterials that we could work with, but I stressed, multiple times, that this creature is far too dangerous to even consider using in military research projects. It's aggressive, stupid, vicious, aggressive, impossible to train, and did I mention aggressive?

    . . .their limbs work on hydraulic principles and operate under pressure, which is why they splurt like a popped water balloon when they get hit in those Marine camera feeds we saw. A slight wound to a limb takes them right the hell out of commission, and now your troops have to deal with an insanely aggressive and stupid xenomorphic K-9 unit that oh by the way IS BLEEDING ACID.

    Summary

    The barrier of underfell is broken. It's been a month, and monsters are finally allowed to move into the city. You're staying in a small cheap apartment waiting for your newest property to finish, when you get a rude noisy neighbor. Does he really have to play his music so loudly. It's not even good music. You're sick of this. You're not listening to him stomping around, yelling or… playing video games. Oh wait, you know that video game . Time to put special plan "get back at your jerk neighbor" into action. Just because your a vampire and stay up all night, doesn't mean he can be a jerk.

    A story about developing friendship, good laughs, and teaching Sans the meaning of friendship and love, when all he's known is the horrible world of Underfell.

    Not just another "Sans lives next door to Reader" story, the emotions in this one are handled deftly and with non-stop humor. A great read!

    Summary

    Underneath the skies of New Ebbot, one star shines brighter than most. Plucked from nothing into fame, the one voice that graces radios all around croons its suffering and romance to eager ears, dances to complete abandon to hungry eyes.

    That's not you.

    You are the unfortunate Private Eye hired to track down and locate said starlet, and make sure he doesn't cause an uproar in every venue he's supposed to sing at by showing up drunk and half-naked.

    Sans "Red" the Skeleton is going to be the death of you, eventually.

    A great twist on the usual mob AU formula: Underfell Sans is a Frank Sinatra-esque singer and Reader is a hard-boiled private eye. Can't wait to see where it goes!

    Summary

    You went to your late-Grandpa's lodge to get away from everyone and everything so you could spend the weekend recharging instead of having a melt-down. However, you never expected to find it filled with zombies!

    Oh wait.

    Those are just skeleton monsters. Turns out, they've been squatting in the neglected lodge for a while. And after the weekend, well.. you're going to need a place to stay, and the lodge is looking more and more appealing.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Although I usually have no interest in most of the AU skeletons, this story made me care about them! It's both wish fulfilling happiness that's pure pleasure to read, and also a thoughtful portrait of what it looks like to develop healthy relationships and emotional resiliency. Wonderful series!
