I think that it's a good thing that there aren't any High School AU's. It means the Under Tale community has more creativity then that.
I mean, to be fair, I've definitely seen high school-setting one-off joke comics. If stuff like Undynetale or the Undertake Telenovela count, then I'd say those should count too, right? :p
The fanfics are AU because the game's verse is extremely self-contained; Developer's Foresight means most "what if the protagonist did this nstead" feel mapped out. To a ludicrous degree.
"THIS IS THE TRASH CAN. FEEL FREE TO VISIT ANY TIME." How does he come up with those lines?!

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.Besides the A Us, Undertale is also the only fandom I've been part of that has such a tremendous about of Reader-Insert fics. It kind of boggles my mind, especially since 95% of the characters are non-human. I guess that's the appeal? LOL.
Or maybe the fanfic scene has changed over the years and writers would rather just write straight up reader-insert over creating their own OCs?
Reader Insert fanfics were also fairly popular in the My Little Pony fandom for a while, with some being rather squicky.
Probably the latter. Undertale isn't the only fandom where there's a lot of these, and Mary Sues aren't in vogue anymore so why bother with the middleman when it comes to shameless self-indulgence.
So, remember that link to the dub series Smart Girl put out on Saturday? The newest one... okay, go to 2:11 of this and just watch.
Jason has come back to kill for Mommy.Yes, thank you Moth, I was thinking of precisely those.
I love the way that artist draws Toriel.
@Dub series The first time I tried to click on it, my computer crashed. That's how truly epic that was.
Currently writing something. Currently procrastinating.Thats some quality high school AU
Forever liveblogging the AvengersI ship Sanriel.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.If you mean Sans/Toriel, then that's no surprise at all that's a very popular ship and is also named Soriel not "Sanriel"
No, it's called "Skeletor".
Shipping those two is a good way to make my sister slightly upset
Personally I prefer Toriel as a mother figure for Sans but to each their own.
That's a possibility too.
Or maybe they're just really good friends. But they are tight, those two.
Poor Asgore... he's a great deconstruction of the meek king...

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.I now have weird ships thanks to that 'ask Frisk and company' thing: Frisk/Monster Kid and Gaster/River Person.
Jason has come back to kill for Mommy.Both sensible. Tralalala...
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.That reminds me of my favorite Gaster and River Person art.

I ship Toriel/Asgore in AUs where the Terrible Things That Happened To Them didn't happen (for example). Which has also led to me kinda sorta shipping them in canon.
I ship Asgore/Toriel no matter the occasion
They're too perfect for each other
I acknowledge that they were back before the Chara debacle
