* NoSell: When the Knight spars with Papyrus, the latter tries to use his trademark "[[blue:blue]] attack" on them, trying to turn their soul blue. However, because the Knight does not have a soul in a traditional sense, they are left completely unaffected by the attack, much to Papyrus's confusion (leaving him to use just a "cool not-turn-you-blue attack").

* NeatFreak: Papyrus is really unappreciative of uncleanliness. In Part 2, he refused to let Sans and the Knight into the house simply because they both had a very strong garbage stench, and even sprayed them with water from the waterhose just to wash off their smell (though [[LamePunReaction Sans making garbage puns didn't help matters]]). Lampshaded by Sans in Part 3, when he apologizes to the Knight for Papyrus spooking them out, explaining that he's just very stubborn when it comes to cleanliness.

In the original ''VideoGame/HollowKnight'', the Knight possessed no emotions and was an empty being devoid of personality.

'''Warning: Unmarked Undertale and Hollow Knight spoilers below! You have been warned!'''
''Hollowtale'' is a {{Crossover}} {{Fan Webcomic|s}} based on ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' and ''VideoGame/HollowKnight'', set after the True Pacifist ending of the former and during the incomplete lategame progress of the latter. The comic is run by its artist, [[https://twitter.com/TheJessofMess TheJessofMess]].
The story revolves around the Knight mysteriously ending up in the world of ''Undertale''. Having no idea how they got there or how they could return into their homeworld, they were found by Sans on the garbage pile on the street. After the slightly heated first meeting, Sans brought the new visitor into his and Papyrus's house, where they decide to take the Knight under their wing to help them adapt to the new world. As the bond between them grows and the skeleton brothers learn more of the Knight's nature, the dark secrets of two worlds are slowly being uncovered, and a malevolent being from the Knight's world is slowly making its presence known in the world of ''Undertale''.
The comic can be read on the creator's [[https://www.deviantart.com/thejessofmess/gallery/73422205/hollowtale DeviantART]] or on [[https://twitter.com/TheJessofMess Twitter]]. Formerly, it was accessible on the creator's [[https://thejessofmess.tumblr.com Tumblr]], but they ceased the publication there due to complications with the platform (though they still publish links to the pages on DA). The series also have [[ApprovalOfGod officially-approved]] [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHTCwNomyi9Opuljoc3CBsJNM02ZEh7wW comic dubs on YouTube]], provided by Revtrosity.

* HandSignals: Because the Knight is TheSpeechless, Sans teaches them [=MoSL=] ([[FunWithAcronyms Monster Sign Language]]), allowing them to communicate through hand gestures.
* InnocentSwearing: Done non-verbally, in both cases;
** In [[https://www.deviantart.com/thejessofmess/art/Rude-Gesture-845377988 one side comic]], [[TheGadfly Sans]] decides to teach the Knight some "advanced signs" that aren't in the [=MoSL=] book, and tells them to sign it to Papyrus. Eventually, they come to Papyrus and [[FlippingTheBird flip him off]]. Papyrus is...less than amused.

** In [[https://www.deviantart.com/thejessofmess/art/Bad-Unfluence-847462404 the later comic]], they innocently ask Papyrus about other rude gesture Sans taught them (a [=MoSL=] sign for "asshole"), right in the middle of Papyrus calling out Sans on being a terrible incluence on the Knight. Cue Papyrus giving troubled Sans the DeathGlare, with the next panel showing Sans being put into the corner, warded off with "do not cross" tapes and wearing the DunceCap with "BAD INFLUENCE" scribbled on it.
* LetsYouAndHimFight: {{Downplayed|Trope}}, as Sans does not really fight back and dodges instead, but the first meeting between him and the Knight ends up being violent, due to the latter initially seeing Sans as a threat. Thankfully, the conflict dies down very quickly as Sans calms them down and offers to peacefully talk things out.
* PungeonMaster: As per canon, Sans loves to make awful puns and cracks them constantly over the course of the series, [[LamePunReaction much to Papyrus's chagrin]].
