After trying everything he could to stop time loops from ruining his life and universe, Sans has finally figured out the truth. As a last resort, he finds out that he has no more choice… but to ask for help.
May 1st, 2016. Undertale has existed for half a year, and its fandom is raging at its full potential. But then, a Player disappears.
![]() | Can You Really Call This TVF's Official Server, I Didn't See Any Temmies Or Anything |
![]() |
![]() | Guys, did any of you hear about Gartiply's last twitch stream? The one where he does some sort of weird magic trick for no reason and then nobody hears from him again so he just lets us try to figure out what happened? :/ |
![]() | Dude That happened like forever ago right? Personally i never watched him but uh Whatever if he wants to get some attention by doing the creepy mysterious stunt and making himself victim of some sort of cheap creepypasta what do you want me to say Are people still talking about it??? |
![]() | I don't know, my tumblr dash is still clogged with some theories and stuff about it every now and then and when I did some research about what that was about it looked like a serious thing ._. |
| |
![]() | Oh hey Lys! By any chance, do you know some stuff about Gartiply's "ghost livestream" that was never recorded or uploaded? |
![]() | Hahaha HAHAHA! |
![]() | uh |
![]() | ? |
| |
![]() | ok |
![]() | Hello to you too, Lys :') |
![]() | Oh, there we go. |
![]() | Guys, I did it! I finally DID IT!! |
| |
![]() | It appears that Doppler is finally divulging to the wide world the dormant mad scientist who dwells threateningly in the meanderings of her mind. Take cover, everybody. |
![]() | Isabel, please... |
![]() | Oh shut up already, Quill. Not now. This moment is too perfect and I don't need you to ruin it. |
![]() | What's the matter, Lys? |
![]() | Just 2 mins in and i already have no idea what's going on anymore Like wow |
![]() | This is FINALLY happening, guys. I'm not kidding. |
![]() | Now I'm the lost one. What have we been allegedly "hyping" for? |
![]() | Dawn. She's finally doing it. |
![]() | OMG |
![]() | Whaaaaaat? |
![]() | Noo... Really? |
![]() | Still in the dark here. |
![]() | Oh Glob, I'm so proud of you right now. How did you do it? |
![]() | Sometimes blackmail is for the greater good =) |
![]() | Aaw, geez... :') |
![]() | And now she HAS to play it \o/ |
![]() | ON LIVESTREAM! I WANNA SEE THIS OMG |
![]() | ... Right. The "Plup Game." Oh boy. |
![]() | LET'S START THE CALL RIGHT NOW! |
![]() | Yosh, she's not even online yet x) |
![]() | THEN WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? LYS JUST BRING HER ALREADY! You're in her house now, right? o3o |
![]() | Nah, we had lunch together but now I'm back home with my laptop and all. But she should be here in... Maybe a few more minutes? |
![]() | Guess again, Lys. I was stalking. |
![]() | YUIFDRTDKJBVFGFJGH |
![]() | ... Oh. |
![]() | A WILD PIPLUP APPEARED!!! |
![]() | And I |
![]() | Don't worry Dawn, it's safe. C'mon, you can trust me! I'll take good care of it ![]() |
![]() | That's exactly what I fear... |
![]() | It's alright, Dawn. She'll give back... whatever it is she took from you. |
![]() | Yeah yeah, whatever. btw, hi joystick |
![]() | HIIIIIIII SO ARE YOU DOING THAT LIVESTREAM OR NOT??? :DDD |
![]() | ...°sigh° I guess I don't have a choice uh. |
![]() | no u don't ![]() |
![]() | ... welp Lys, do you mind if I use your Steam account and reset your game? |
![]() | You know I don't :p |
![]() | heh I hate yall. Cant believe youd betray me like this. but eh why the heck not Well, I'll see you guys in a few minutes I guess. In the meantime you can prepare the popcorn or whatever |
![]() | eeeeeeeee I can't wait!!! ![]() |
![]() | Well, I'll be off and leave you to... whatever it is you're about to do. For my part there's still a chapter I'd like to finish today. |
![]() | Oh nice!! Will you review my fanfic too when ur done? |
![]() | ... No. I was about to type a sarcastic comment about the relevance of your writing style, but then I realized it probably wasn't worth the effort. |
![]() | Duh. Not everyone types in chatrooms the same way they write novels, Dickens. Especially when they're on their phone lmao |
| |
![]() | Agreed. Phone keyboards are the worst <_< |
![]() | btw Artie, I ![]() |
![]() | ...uh... |
![]() | ... Why. Just why. WDG, care to explain what this is? xD |
![]() | Looks like Lee made another autocorrect bot without telling me. Let me check ... Yeah, can confirm, he added love to the list of words to replace with random code |
![]() | Did he take it from a new meme or something Better question is does he think it's funny |
![]() | if it's just a dumb ref to STY i swear aaaaaaaand dang it the song is stuck in my head now. Lee, if you read this, I hate you. How do you two even find the time to code that stuff in lmao |
![]() | Well, coding it isn't that hard, it's basically the same bot as the one that replaces italics and bold text with the yellow and red from Undertale and changes the font of member names to Determination Mono. But to answer the "why"... I guess he probably did it on a whim at a time when he was tired enough to find it funny, as usual. It's fine, I'll deactivate it :') |
![]() | Better yet, just delete it. |
![]() | Yeah, remove that bit of code from the server's bots. Let its pestilent plague be consumed by the blazing anger of cringe. Seal it within the fandom's darkest depths forever, where it belongs. |
![]() | You can just say you want to see it burn in hell |
![]() | ... Dude I was trying to be subtle don't ruin it |
![]() | Anyway thanks yosh You didn't think the megalovania part was too much? |
![]() | Eh, don't worry about it. You know how it works with fanfics... No matter what happens, you can always find worse than you ![]() |
![]() | Um, Lys, no offense, but Isabel is definitely the best writer I've ever seen :/ |
![]() | Well it's not that she's a bad writer. What I mean is that her FANFICS are terrible. I mean ok she writes like if she was the reincarnation of Tolkien or something. BUT. Have you just. READ her stuff? |
![]() | Of course I have. I was always amazed by her work ![]() |
![]() | It's well written, ok. But she's so attached to the canon, she rejects When you limit yourself so much, how can you make your story interesting? If there's literally no surprises EVER? No secrets? No imagination coming from HER? |
![]() | Haha, good point |
![]() | Ok she writes wonderfully and she knows how to make ANYTHING sound badass when she writes about it, but... Her stories are just so boring BECAUSE she follows the canon to a T. Because we all know the canon game in depth, we can always see from a mile away what's going to happen :v By now her writing only makes me snore honestly. At least if she's going to write something and we all know how it'll end, can't she make it SHORT? |
![]() | ![]() All hail to the one who could review calliope's fanfics lol |
![]() | HAHAHA BOW BEFORE YOUR FANFICTION MASTER MY PRECIOUS SLAVES ![]() xD Seriously though someone really needs to get her off her high horse one of these days |
![]() | She brags so much about how writing stuff can only be done her way or else it has to be crap lol You think she's trying to compensate on some other thing she's lacking? ;p |
![]() | That's enough, you two. Please leave her alone with this. If you want to discuss that kind of problems, then talk about it in private, and definitely not behind Isabel's back. |
![]() | ... yes ma'am |
![]() | Anyway... Don't you think it's been a while since Dawn's last message? How is her run going? |
![]() | ...true ![]() |
![]() | Hey, she's not bailing out NOW is she? ![]() HEY |
![]() | That's weird, I don't think she would just leave us just like that... It's true she looked really attached to that music sheet I found :o It looked like she was feeling embarrassed about it so I guess she composed it, but I can't read shit on musical stuff so it's not like I could understand what's wrong with it lmao But don't worry, I'm sure she's fine. |
![]() | She's dead ![]() |
![]() | She was a bit upset an hour ago, so maybe she just F4'd and now that the game's on full screen she forgot everything that's going on around it? idk You know how she gets when she's deep into something u_u The rest of the world just "magically disappears" and there's nothing you can do to get her out except smack her in the back of her head or whatever |
![]() | At this point I wonder if she'll be the first one to prove that it's possible to die during Flowey's first fight or something like that... ![]() |
![]() | No but seriously you think shes past Toriel yet? XD |
![]() | Getting past Toriel isn't the biggest problem if her health is lowered down to 2 HP within the first few turns x) I'm more concerned about the rest of the Ruins honestly If she finds a Vegetoid she might get into a bit more trouble... |
![]() | Pff at this point even the first froggit will kill her lmao |
![]() | Oh my GOD guys, have some faith in her dammit! |
![]() | Heh. I don't know, Jocelyn... Dawn and I have been childhood friends since I don't know how she does it but she just always finds some sort of way to literally I mean, why did YOU think making her play Undertale was that much of a big deal? :p |
![]() | Excuse me what |
![]() | I can't believe you joined the Plup Game without knowing what it was |
![]() | Hey come on, you know me! I just roll with the flow xD And since it was a joke with Dawn at the center of course I couldn't just NOT join lmao |
![]() | Pff ok I know Dawn always says she sucks at video games and that she's so bad there should be an award for that but a CURSE??? lol |
![]() | I'll admit I don't remember this thing about a curse either... But I guess that if YOU are saying this, then you already have evidence stacked up in order to prove your point? :p |
![]() | Oh you have no idea, my case is FULL of it. Here's a random anecdote: there was that time when she was playing Pokemon Platinum and she found a freaking SHINY ABSOL on the FIRST TRY. It was hailing so she had to be extra careful not to KO it and all, so she decided to give it a status condition that'd make it easier to catch and then wait for the hail to weaken it. So during the first turn, she paralyzed it, and then the plan was to keep switching out until it was close to the red. |
![]() | On the first turn, right after Dawn's Stun Spore, luckily the wild Absol is paralyzed and doesn't do anything. As expected at the end of the turn, the hail hurts both Pokemon on the field. But that's with the second turn that things got insane. |
![]() | Ok now you |
![]() | A shiny absol? Now I don't think you told me that one but it HAD to be gold :') |
![]() | Second turn, Dawn decides to switch out. The wild Absol uses Pursuit and nearly OHKO's Dawn's Pokemon, since that move does double damage when you try to switch out. Still, the switch occurs. And then that's when the festival begins. Each Pokemon is somehow hurt EVERY TIME by their Both Pokemon faint. The end. |
![]() | but how did she |
![]() | That was even better than I expected x'D |
![]() | bruh what the fuck??? |
![]() | ... Oh my. |
| |
![]() | Press f to pay respects to the kamikaze shiny absol |
![]() | f |
![]() | Later on I heard about that "acid rain glitch", but wherever I looked people were adamant that the glitch was only supposed to activate when it was the PLAYER who used the Pursuit move, so if it was the wild Pokemon then it wasn't supposed to happen. (f yes you should've seen our faces back then OOF xD) ... Besides, the damage wasn't supposed to be that strong, at least not nearly strong enough to get an OHKO out of both Pokemon in just one turn. So, my conclusion is, "???" |
![]() | F² |
![]() | ... f I think I heard about it a few years ago, yeah. Apparently it affected the HGSS games too. But it's true that this case looks weird... I wish I could look into it more. |
![]() | f |
![]() | Then again, what ELSE is new with all the experiments you led that involved Dawn and video games being in the same room? ![]() |
![]() | I know, right? XD Anyway, I won't tell every single story separately, but long story short, Dawn has a record of LITERALLY breaking every single videogame she comes across, and nobody knows how she does it, ESPECIALLY NOT HERSELF. |
![]() | This is concerning... but hilariously fascinating x'D |
![]() | The most common way she does it is that she activates glitches in the game that nobody knew about, or ones that are known to be insanely hard to accomplish... Except she manages to pull it off completely by accident half the time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
| |
![]() | ![]() sorry i had to |
![]() | ... |
![]() | Haha oh shit this is too powerful |
![]() | oh boy :'D |
![]() | Joss I hate you Nobody can criticize perfection but I still hate you |
![]() | Welp, I can't believe I didn't predict that you'd pull another MSPB on us xD Congrats on doing it so fast, too! Your drawing skills are actually getting pretty good now o: |
![]() | Haha, tanks~ Guess it's just years of experience in shitposting 8D I wish degrees in shitposting were a thing, then I'd know what to do with my life lmao |
![]() | Anyway... Back to the point, if you'll allow me :p NOW, do you have ANY IDEA what could happen if we tried this with ![]() |
![]() | ... Oh my God she's so screwed. |
![]() | I tried to warn you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Then again, ok, I still have to admit she's been improving. I recently tried to train her with some random rhythm game, because who's Dawn without her passion and amazing skills in music, RIGHT? And uh. After a week she managed to actually finish the first level? Hey, at least she even taught me something in the end. On that day I learned that the rank "G" somehow EXISTS on that game??? |
![]() | Oooh right, that one xD The infamous "Backwards Secret Rank for |
![]() | PFFFFFT XD Who wants to bet she'll get that glitch where Sans walks out of the screen? x) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVyhRfDXGxQ well either that or magical glass everywhere haha |
![]() | Magical glass? |
![]() | https://imgur.com/a/EkwlF Still, it's too bad... I wish we could see her progress ._. |
| |
![]() | Oh, hello! |
![]() | Hi folks! What's up? |
![]() | You won't believe what happened. Dawn is playing Undertale! |
![]() | ... DUDE. YOU'RE NOT SERIOUS. |
![]() | THIS IS 100% SERIOUS ... Well we don't get to see her play for now, but I'm sure she'll have some stuff to say later :p |
![]() | Ugh... I wish I could've been the one, I was working on a plan to make her play too! Oh well. Who's the lucky winner? |
![]() | This girl right here ![]() What was the prize again? I think we talked about a special rank at some point Oh and you all owe me a UT gift for the ConnectiCon meeting. I want my merch =) |
![]() | There, done |
![]() | Oh, you mean the rank? ... DANG IT LEE |
![]() | ![]() |
![]() | HOW DID YOU EVEN MANAGE TO MAKE AN ABSOLUTE GOD OF HYPERDEATH RANK XD |
![]() | Pfft, nice one xD |
![]() | Oh come on x) |
![]() | x) Wait Steven You're STILL online? It's like 7:30pm something here, doesn't that mean it's literally the middle of the night for you? I swear you're online more and more often at the US time now Doesn't that mean you're online at very weird hours for the Australian time? |
![]() | Ehhh, it's just a habit of getting up early and going to bed even earlier by now x) |

![]() | Nope :/ |
| |
| |
![]() | BWAHAHA OH NOW I SEE WHAT IT IS XD CALLIOPE NOW LYS HATES YOU SO MUCH SHE CAN SENSE WHEN YOU"RE ABOUT TO ARRIVE LMAO |
![]() | ... Can somebody explain what |
![]() | Nobody knows but your timing was perfect XD |
![]() | Why does Doppler have...? Actually, I'm not even going to ask. |
![]() | That's her prize for winning the Plup Game x) |
![]() | ... In any case. I finished the newest chapter of |
![]() | Nice! I'll try to read it tonight whenever I can. But for now I'll have to leave too... ^^' |
| |
![]() | Sorry Isabel, I still have to read the last three first haha Your chapters are so long it takes a while to read them... |
You're new to server, aren'tcha? You must be so confused. The work around here! | |
| |
![]() | Hi everyone!!! |
![]() | Oh hi! I think I recognize your pfp You're one of the TVF members from last month, right? Sorry every time there's a new patch on the game there's a huge wave of new members so it's hard to remember everyone |
![]() | yee = ^ . ^ = oh i see your talking about fanfics!! Which is great because i wanted to post my first ever fanfic on the forum today i'm so excited!!! |
![]() | Hey that's great! You probably must've heard of our Official Fanfic Reviewer, haha Come on Calliope, say hi to your new apprentice! ![]() |
![]() | ... "Greetings." |
![]() | Aw, she's being shy 8D Looks like you'll make it out alive after all, heheheh |
![]() | uuuuuuuu?????? q-q |
![]() | Don't worry, I'm just joking with you. Noobies tend to scare her :p |
![]() | You do know I can also "kick" you whenever I want, Jocelyn. |
![]() | Psh, you really have to develop a sense of humor one of these days xD Remember that half the flavor text in the game is made of jokes and puns!! Chara loves puns and that's canon, whether you like it or not :p |
![]() | The "Charator" theory was never confirmed. |
![]() | DUH, between "99% canon due to the insane amount of evidence" or "explicitly Word-Of-God confirmed", you're practically the only one who still sees a difference :/ ANYWAY! So, dear new padawan, what's your fanfic about? :p |
![]() | oh! Right!!! Uh I think I need some time before I can write a summary cause I don't wanna spoil! but in the meantime what's your favorite AU? ^ . ^ |
![]() | ... |
| |
![]() | ... Ooooooooh boy XD Wait just a bit, I'll get her back :') Don't worry, it's not your fault, you didn't know XD |
| |
![]() | ???? oki???? :( |
![]() | Well Lys isn't answering my DMs for now, so... Hi there! It's your first time on the server I think, right? |
![]() | ye but whats wrong with calliope quilil did i say something wrong??? |
![]() | Just don't worry about it, it's nothing against you personally x) |
![]() | She'll come back in a few seconds no worries :p |
| |
![]() | Come on now, Calliope. Just like we practiced =) |
![]() | ... Which "AU" is your fanfiction about? |
| |
![]() | Oh oh oh!!! It's an AU I created actually! |
![]() | Oooh, even better!! :D |
![]() | ye!!! Its called UnderShwift ^ w ^ |
![]() | You're enjoying this way too much, Jocelyn. |
![]() | I AM AND I WON'T HIDE IT THIS IS TOO GLORIOUS XD |
| |
![]() | ... First of all, |
![]() | its because it's a mix between Storyshift and UnderSwap... :( but then Sans has to travel through AUs because of the Resets and hes trying to find a solution and he asks help to other AUs but he doesn't realize that because he did that he made Error Sans angry and now his AU is in danger!!! |
| |
| |
![]() | ??? T-T |
| |
![]() | Alright. You are new here, and your description in the forum shows you're only eleven years old (which by the way means that you probably should not be here, but I am too tired to open this can of worms...), so I will give you the benefit of attributing this to an error of the youth. So, please listen very closely. |
![]() | uuuuuuh ok? ^^' |
![]() | As you may have noticed by now, I am pretty intolerant of "AUs", but there is a very rational and sound reason behind this behavior. The reason is, we all love Undertale! Why would people create entirely new universes which are not only unoriginal, but also completely abolish the meaning and depth of the canon characters as well? The only kind of "AUs" I would perhaps tolerate are the ones that find their source directly from the canon, but diverge from it only because of a "what if" scenario. And in Undertale, the only ones I could think of right now is "What if Gaster's incident never occurred?", or "What if the humans did not attack Asriel and Chara when they arrived in the village?", for example. But since we don't know anything whatsoever about either Gaster and his incident's whereabouts or about the surface anyway, such fanfiction could never come even close to canon, which makes it pointless and utterly ridiculous either way. |
![]() | Ok so first off, I'm pretty sure you're confusing the concept of AUs with Canon Divergence. And second off, OOOOO BOI Actually, that's the point in a fanfiction, right? You create a story. Your own personal story. If it's not canon then it just makes it more personal and more related to you! |
![]() | And no matter how hard you try Calliope, your fanfics are never going to be canon either So it's literally the pot calling the kettle black ![]() |
![]() | Maybe, but you don't need to recreate the whole universe just for that! Why do you see yourself as an Undertale fan if what you're writing has nothing to do with the game? Just write an original story then, not a fanfiction that will most likely disrespect the original content. |
| |
![]() | she's nOT AT HOME SHE"S NOT AT HOME FUCK |
![]() | Wrong chat, Lys |
![]() | FUCK I"LL JUST SAY IT HERE |
![]() | Wait what? What do you mean are you talking about Dawn?! |
![]() | ?????????? WHO????????? |
![]() | Ok on a scale from one to ten how serious is this? |
![]() | SIXTY STEVEN HER PARENTS CALLED THE POLICE WHERE THE FUCK DID SHE GO WHAT DO I DO |
![]() | Whoa Lys calm down!! o_o |
![]() | Joss is right, you need to stop panicking D: I can't do much from where I am, but how's the situation? She just LEFT? |
![]() | O_________________O |
![]() | I don't know! She's just GONE When I saw her room her PC was just open on her desk with Undertale on it! Her chair and some stuff around were on the floor, but THAT'S. IT! Charlie said he heard weird noises at some point but nobody saw her leave the room She didn't jump out the window, did she?! |
![]() | what is happening????????? |
| |
![]() | Isabel what the heck?! |
![]() | I apologize. I assumed we needed some privacy for this. |
![]() | I hand't realized she was THAT upset! I didn't think she'd take thaht so seriously Oh my god buys is this my fault? did i make a mistake by telling her to play? THIS WAS JUST A GAME COME ON WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WHY DID SHE DO THAT?! |
![]() | Doppler, you need to stay focused. If this is so serious, we need to know what happened. When did you last hear from her? Do you know any places she could have gone to? Maybe we can find her fast enough. She left the chat less than an hour ago, she can't be too far. |
![]() | What the FUCK Are you being serious right now? THIS IS NOT ONE OF YOUR SLUSHY FANFICTION THRILLERS, QUILL! |
![]() | Lys, calm down! I know you're tense but we'rejust trying to help! |
![]() | You DO know that both my father and Sally work in the Virginia State Police, right? Pennsylvania isn't our jurisdiction so they legally can't do anything for now, but I can always ask them for advice on how to handle the situation. |
![]() | WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I WANT TO LISTEN TO YOU WHEN DAWY COULD DE ANYWHETE RIGHT NOW |
![]() | Lys what the fuck??? o_o |
| |
![]() | Good thinking, Steven. Hopefully her timeout will let her cool down and think more rationally about this... |
| |
| |
![]() | Oh God |
| |
| |
![]() | Hey guys! What did I miss? Did Dawn finish her first run? ...WHAT THE HELL STEVEN??? |
