Undertale: Ten Years After

Summary:

Ten years have passed since the destruction of the barrier and human and monster relations have been going very well. After a shit-ton of resets, routes, and pain, everyone’s able to live their happy ending. Even me. The Players who made us go through that hell of a killing spree are gone. Asriel has his soul back, Mom and Dad are happy, Godfather and Frisk are okay and safe, and I’m alive again. We all have you to thank for that, Frisk. I hope we can have a chance at a new beginning for each other, but I’m worried that I will screw up everything and be hated and abandoned again. My name is Chara Dreemer and this is my story.

Chapter Text

What is Undertale: Ten Years After?

“Ten Years After” is an AU that takes place after the True Pacifist Route. In this AU, all the characters are ten years older, so relationships will be different from the actual game. Also, while a complete Neutral and No Mercy run did occur, Frisk and Chara resetted both to ensure that they got the full Pacifist run.

 

Who are the characters?

Main characters

Chara Dreemer - twin-sibling-figure of Sora, Adoptive brother of Asriel and Frisk’s “more-than-just-a” friend. This whole thing will be told mostly from Chara’s perspective. They were resurrected and have their soul somewhat restored, thanks to Frisk and Alphys. They have a serious and enormous crush on Frisk, but they’re incredibly embarrassed and nervous about confessing to them. They are currently going through college and have taken some self-defense knife classes and have been taking mixed martial arts since they were 18. Also, they have a motorcycle license and some understanding on how to do magic. They’re currently living with their godfather, Jackson, whom they and Frisk admire very much and usually visit the Dreemers residence to spend time with Frisk and Asriel. While they are pretty much unemployed at the moment, they do serve as Frisk’s and Asriel’s bodyguard during ambassador work (they, at least, try to balance their time spent with their family and friends, but mostly spend time with Frisk). Also due to bodyguard work, they have a few scars along their back and chest. There are also a couple on their legs from falling into the Underground and several bunch of them their wrists are from self-harm, which Frisk is trying to talk them out of. They also suffer from slight PTSD due to constant bullying from the neighborhood they grew up in before the Underground and have some panic attacks; none of which were caused by their family. They have a large understanding of the Undertale multiverse, thus knowing about some alternate universes, though never seen anyone from them. They (like in-game Chara) are a singularity point for all AUs and timelines. They’re were designated male at birth and go by non-binary pronouns. They’re 21 to 22 years old and are 5 ft. 10 in. which they take advantage of to tease Frisk (it’s the cutest thing ever to them). Due to taking MMA classes, they’ve become quite fit for their size and age; gaining toned muscle and a somewhat-visible six pack. (As a member of the CharaDefenseClub, I can assure you that Chara is NOT, I repeat, NOT EVIL NOR WILL THEY EVER BE IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM AT ALL; nor will I accept any bashing of the character. THEY LOVE THEIR FAMILY, OKAY!?)

Frisk - Ambassador between Humankind and Monsterkind relations, Asriel’s best friend, and Chara’s “more-than-just-a” friend, also their crush. Like Chara, they’ll be going to college soon and just finished high school. They, also, have a very large and serious crush on Chara, but feel that it’s sadly a one-sided thing on their end. When they’re not doing ambassador work or schoolwork, they’re seen, spending time with Chara (they also, at least, try to balance their time spent with their family and friends but mostly spend time with Chara). Frisk is selectively mute in this AU and knows American Sign Language. They can speak depending on the situation, but rarely do so. They, too, have some self-defense experience, thanks to Chara teaching them and also have gained quite a fit body for their size (not as toned as Chara, but enough to gain a slightly-visible two pack). They, like Chara, also suffer from slight PTSD due to constant bullying and child abuse from the neighborhood and family they grew up with before the Underground (but is somewhat more controllable, unlike Chara's). They also have some scars, but they're from the many fights during the Routes and have a large understanding of the Undertale multiverse, thus knowing about some alternate universes, though never seen anyone from them. They (like in-game Frisk) are also a singularity point for all AUs and timelines. They’re were designated female at birth and go by non-binary pronouns. They’re 18 to 19 years old and are 5 ft. 4 in.

Asriel Dreemer - Chara’s adoptive brother, best friend to Frisk, and prince of Monsterkind (though most of the monsters treat him as a great friend rather than a prince or king). He was saved by Frisk and Chara and, with Alphys’s help, has his soul restored. The unforeseen side effect of this is that he has to constantly battle Flowey mentally, as Flowey is now Asriel split personality, though Asriel does have help from Jackson, Chara’s godfather, who has experienced this himself. Like Chara and Frisk, he’s in college. He’s VERY supportive for Chara’s and Frisk’s relationship and wants to help them get closer together. He’s 20 years old and 6 ft. 3 in. His height annoys the hell out of Chara a lot.

Jackson (My Persona) - Chara’s godfather and one of Grillby’s friends. He is a Human-Monster hybrid from the Human-Monster War, which he single-handedly ended. His reasons for this are generally unknown, even to Grillby, the Dreemers, and the rest of the monsters. Due to him having both human and monster abilities, it caused him to have a second persona materialize in his mind (no one really knows who or what this persona is). He is an anomaly; he’s not supposed to be in the multiverse of Undertale, but he is. His second persona gave him power to either create, restore, or destroy any Undertale universe he wishes. While he refuses to use this power because he doesn’t want to be a god, he’s more than happy to restore universes that have been or at RISK of being destroyed by natural or unnatural causes. Beside, he lets the second persona take care of all that. He has an extremely nerdy attitude (possibly more than Alphys) and a kind demeanor towards his family and friends. Also, he’s MORE than willing to fight and even KILL to protect those he cares about. (Just don’t EVER hurt his loved ones in ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM! Don’t even mention or talk about hurting them.) He is also INCREDIBLY supportive of Chara’s and Frisk’s relationship. He’s physically 20 years old.

Sora (Pancake-the-Pikachu) - Chara’s twin-sibling-figure (whom they care for very much) and Artist-chan’s great friend with benefits. They’re a great artist and currently live with their other siblings, Ryan (another great artist) and Amanda (an amazing writer). They also take care of their adorable dog, Otto (and he IS absolutely adorable, believe me). They’re very supportive for Chara, Frisk, and Asriel and trust Jackson immensely. They usually spend time with Artist-chan.

Artist-chan (CNeko-Chan) - Sora’s great friend with benefits and the queen of sins. Her twin sister is Kitten. They’re a great artist, like Sora and Ryan as well as an incredible writer, like Amanda. She cares for the Dreemer kids and Frisk like siblings and trusts Jackson with taking care of Chara. She’s usually seen spending time with Sora, their siblings, and Otto.

(If you need more info about Sora, Ryan, Amanda, Otto, Artist-chan, and their characters, please go to their respective deviantart accounts linked by their names. They will be the same age as they currently are in real life. As a member of the CnekoDefenseSquad and SoraDefenseSquad, here’s a word of advice. PLEASE BE KIND TO THEM, OKAY? Also, for those who ship Sora and CNeko-Chan like Ryan, Amanda, and myself, this AU will NOT feature that ship. I do not have permission to do so and I won’t violate it. I apologize if this disappoints some people.)

(Note that I’ll be doing more detailed bios for Chara, Frisk, and Asriel in the future. Also, the bio here for my persona is only for this AU. I’ll be doing my persona’s real-life bio in the future too.)

 

Supporting characters (Note that these specific characters are VERY similar to that in game, thus these bios will be short.)

Asgore Dreemer - Asriel’s father, Chara’s adoptive dad, and former king of Monsterkind. Currently a professional gardener.

Toriel - Asriel’s mother, Chara’s and Frisk adoptive mom, and current headmaster/principal of the school she teached at.

Kitten (CNeko-Chan) - Artist-chan’s twin sister.

Ryan and Amanda (Pancake-the-Pikachu) - Sora’s siblings. Ryan is an artist and Amanda is a writer.

Sans and Papyrus - Uncles to Frisk and Chara (Well Papyrus is a fantastic uncle to Chara. Sans still doesn’t really trust them, which annoys Frisk and pisses off Jackson to no end) and sons/creations of W.D. Gaster (Papyrus treats Gaster like a father, while Sans is a little skeptical, even though they both have barely any memory of him). Papyrus is Mettaton’s proud lover.

Undyne - Fiancée to Alphys and badass aunt to Chara and Frisk. Currently works in the Human-Monster military.

Alphys - Fiancée to Undyne, creator of Mettaton (treats him like a younger brother), and cute nerdy aunt to Chara and Frisk. Currently works as a scientist and part-time robotics expert.

Mettaton - Best show host, actor, dancer, and singer. Creation of Alphys (treats her like a sister), uncle to Chara and Frisk, and Papyrus’s lover. Really wants to marry him at some point.

W.D. Gaster - Alphys’s former lab and current scientist partner and father/creator of Sans and Papyrus (originally treated them as lab tests, but thanks to Papyrus’s mercy, he was finally able to see them as his sons). He’s currently working with Alphys to find a way to return him to his natural monster state before the creation of the Core and a way to separate Flowey’s persona from Asriel.

Grillby - Jackson’s and Sans’s best friend, father of Fuku Fire, uncle to Chara and Frisk, and manager and head chef of his restaurant, Grillby’s. He loves his daughter’s company and trusts her lover, Ska. He trusts Chara because of Jackson and how well they get along with Frisk and Asriel.

Fuku Fire - Grillby’s daughter, Ska’s lover, and currently in college. She loves to help her father with the restaurant and spending time with Ska.

Ska (Skateboard Girl) - Professional skateboarder and Fuku Fire’s lover. Likes that Grillby trusts and is kind to her. Goes to the same college as Fuku.

Monster Kid - Good friend of Frisk and Asriel. He’s honestly not sure what to think of Chara yet, but he think he can trust them.

Six Human Souls- Chara and Frisk want Alphys and Gaster to find a way to resurrect the other six fallen humans before Frisk.

 

Antagonists

The Players (No-Mercy Route)- Some of these people controlled Chara and Frisk and played through the entire No-Mercy Route. All they think is that Chara, Frisk, and everyone else are just characters and the monsters do not deserve anything, but death. When Chara appeared, they UNJUSTLY placed all the blame for their actions on Chara, thus making the child a scapegoat. Thankfully, there were those who knew that Chara and the monsters were innocent and deserved to be saved. These kinds of Players (Neutral and True-Pacifist Route) stopped the genocidal players and freed Chara and Frisk from their control. That’s how Chara and Frisk were able to do the True-Pacifist Route.

 

What are the shippings?

Main ships

Charisk (Undertale OTP) - This will THE main ship of the AU that the story will revolve around.

Alphyne - Undyne and Alphys are getting married in this AU.

Secondary ships

Papyton - Mettaton and Papyrus want to get married at some point.

Fuku Fire x Skateboard Girl - These two are an established couple.

Asgoriel - Chara and Asriel want their parent to get back together.

(If you don’t like any of these, then I’m sorry. Also, this is a hater-free AU, so I won’t except any hateful or harassing comments towards and against the characters and shippings.)

Notes:

Rules

You may make fanart and fanfics based off of this AU, so long as you follow these rules:

Make sure that you credit all creators for all the characters and AU/s featured in your works.

Make sure that the relationships, shippings, and personalities of characters are accurate and canon to the AU/s.

No character or ship hating/bashing.

No inclusion or mention of Error! Sans, unintended or otherwise (I’ll give a proper and AU canon reason why later).

You are allowed to make pics and fics for characters that haven’t been shipped (ie: Sansby, Gaster x Grillby, and others) so long as you understand that the ships won’t be canon depending on certain circumstances. As for SoraChan and Asriel x Artist-chan fans, PLEASE ask permission from Sora on Pancake-the-Pikachu and CNeko-Chan to make pics and fics of them paired with each other or a character that hasn’t been shipped yet.

Anyone who breaks these rules will have the works flagged and reported.

 

And that’s it for the general info. For now… I may go back and fix, change, and/or add things later, depending on circumstances. But as of now, that’s it! I hope you like this! I’m still fighting writer’s block and still having trouble with writing the next chapter of “I love you to hell and back”, my RWBY fanfic. So, do not expect the first chapter to be up anytime soon. As usual, constructive criticism is heavily appreciated. Flames will be used to roast the haters. Until then, I’ll see you later!
