[@imnightmare101]

This song made me remember once again how deep Sans as a character is, and how misunderstood he usually is. What I'm talking about specifically is how he reacts to the death of his own brother, Papyrus. And this song perfectly reflects that situation, along with the animation this music comes from. In most fanon Undertale content, upon seeing his brother's demise, Sans has an emotional outburst, crying and throwing a fit, and instantly declaring vengeance against the killer. It's definitely how most characters would react to seeing their brother die. However... Sans really isn't like most other characters. The way Sans reacts to it in the animation this song comes from is much closer to how the canon Sans would have acted. He's just taking a calm, quiet walk through Snowdin, thinking to himself, and taking in everything around him. But it's only when he walks a little further, he spots something. The dust of someone that meant everything to him. And, instead of falling to his knees and crying, he just stands there, silently mourning the loss of his brother. Sans, being as levelheaded as he is, instantly takes it at face value. He doesn't try to deny it in any way. And he certainly doesn't run off to tell anyone about it. He instead reflects on the situation, pondering that in another timeline, Papyrus is alive and well. He just continues to stand there, trying to come to any kind of proper conclusion, but he just can't. He's in too much pain to do that. Eventually, he walks away, accepting the fact that his brother is gone. And the part that hits me the hardest in the animation is as Sans is walking away, he sees a brief hallucination of Papyrus. But he immediately dismisses it, knowing that his mind was just playing tricks on him. And with that, he is shrouded in complete loneliness. I think one of the most relatable parts of Sans as a character is that while he may come off as extroverted when he's around other people, he keeps to himself. Sans loves to entertain others with his bad puns, but deep down, the true Sans is an enigma. He knows so much more than he's supposed to, and yet he doesn't tell anyone. Papyrus is the only person to pick up on this, saying that 'SANS NEVER TELLS ANYONE ANYTHING!', which shows how secretive Sans really is. He doesn't tell anyone else what he's going through, even his own brother. Most of the other characters know Sans as the goofy prankster, but only Sans truly knows how he is when he's alone. Through small breadcrumbs left in the game, it's so clear that Sans went through some kind of horrible incident, but whatever happened to him is an absolute mystery. Because no matter how much Sans is suffering, he refuses to tell anyone else about what he's going through. Because that's just the type of person Sans is. He lies not out of malice, but because he doesn't want to trouble anyone else. Many Undertale characters are open with who they truly are, but not Sans. There's an entire side of him that he keeps locked away. And no, I'm not talking about the side of him where he's all powerful and he has a glowing eye. No, I'm talking about who Sans truly is deep down. The part of him that had ambitions. The part of him that didn't give up yet. "just give up. i did."

[@R8MIX]

In light of this, it’s sad to see how Sans kind of just…well, threw in the towel, wether he gave up due to the resets, or to something else.

[@un_nown4x4]

Bro this comment is way too underrated. It explains his character well and you perfectly describe what we think he’s going through. I really do feel bad for him, even if he is a silly fictional skeleton

[@Ninjacat429]

This soundtrack definitely speaks about the acceptance of the present situation that Sans went through after his brother passed away. Unfortunately though, even though in Undertale their apparently exists a lot of timelines, what if there was only just one world? I still feel Sans would calmly reflect on the situation and wouldn't tell anyone because he knows that no one would be able to understand his pain. But inside he would be filled with sorrow mourning the loss of his brother.

sans instead of going at the player instantly. he waits watches and observes almost as if he's giving you a chance to go back on your genocide to maybe quit? once he sees that's not a possibility he Confronts you in the Last Corridor also Known as Judgement Hall where he begins your judgement. He reveals that EXP and LV don't stand for Experience points or level they stand for execution points and Level of Violence. A way of measuring someone's capacity to hurt. The more you kill, the easier it becomes to distance yourself. The more you distance yourself, the less you will hurt. The more easily you can bring yourself to hurt others. now he never fights you unless you have LV 19 in the if you have any number lower, he just either humiliates you or Roasts or insults or gives you a good luck. LV 1 with EXP `` huh? what's with that look in your eye? did you go through and kill someone... just to see what i'd say about it? wow. you're a pretty gross person, huh?`` LV 2 ``lv2... seems like you messed up the slightest amount. welp. that's pretty sad. you probably weren't even aware of what you were doing... and when you learned, it was too late. nah, just kidding. who gets to lv2 on accident? get outta here`` LV 3 ``lv3... 3's just an ok number, i guess. i'll give you a C+. you can do better, right?`` LV 4-9 ``hmmm... over lv3, huh. you killed some people on purpose, didn't you? that's probably bad. though, maybe some of it was in self-defense... i don't know. help me out here. i wasn't watching. anyways, don't do that.`` LV 10-14 ``hmmm... over lv9, huh. that's over halfway to lv20, the maximum. but don't think that means you're still 50-percent good. 50-percent, 20-percent. those are both still failing grades. besides. chances are... i've already tried to steer you in the right direction. so what can i say? what can i say that will change the mind of a being like you...?`` LV 15 and over ``hmmm... over lv14, huh. well, hmmm... judgment-wise... you're a pretty bad person. you wander around, looking for people... killing them to take their money. that's just plain messed up. and what's worse, is that as bad as you are... you aren't anywhere near as bad as you could be. you pretty much suck at being evil. honestly, it's super embarrassing. but maybe you'd be better... at not killing anyone? crazy idea, huh? let me know how that one goes.``. LVL:19 ``heya. you've been busy, huh? ... so, I've got a question for ya. do you think even the worst person can change...? that everyone can be a good person, if they just try? (Player takes a step forward.) heh heh heh heh... all right. well, here's a better question. do you wanna have a bad time? cause if you take another step forward... you are REALLY not going to like what happens next. (Player takes another step forward.) welp. sorry, old lady. this is why I never make promises. `` Sans acts as the Judge in the game. he sees right through your facades. Sans unlike the rest Doesn't let you have a fair game he gives KR which is karma or karmatic Retribution. you get 0 i frames, and he attacks first. in one of his Dialogue, he states. ``to be blunt... it makes it kind of hard to give it my all. ...or is that just a poor excuse for being lazy...? hell if i know. all i know is... seeing what comes next... i can't afford not to care anymore. ``. sans is a whole lot deeper than you think. he's not this emotional fanon weirdo skeleton he's this secretive Nihilistic judge who acts like a Funny man whose just lazy but that's just the surface. he CARES about his Friends and his brother but hes just face value Ps. dont ever let me write this long again lol

I always come back here every now and then. This song just gives the vibe of "hopeless" or something leaning toward that kind of feeling. Like when I'm drawing, then I search up references just to see AI perfectly replicate that certain character I'm about to draw, but with much better composition, lighting, just better everything. It makes me lose hope, as if all that drawing and practice over all these years had just been wasted, and I would just have been better off studying anything else than art. The more this happens, the more I simply become more discontent with drawing as a whole, and feel even worse when I see one of my favorite art content creators' style just get completely ripped off by AI. I just feel worse and worse every time this happens, and it may as well just get me to the point where I drop art entirely. And it's even compelled me to type this out in the first place.

It's like everything is over and you're there reflecting on the things you did throughout your life and how that led you to your current situation. The decision you make is up to you, but be glad because there were good moments, even though they were few. Yes, life is horrible, things don't always go the way we want, we experience disappointments and failures. I admit it, I gave up a long time ago, I know that things will never be the same and nothing I do will change because I am insignificant, in this world I have no purpose. Every night I start to remember and the truth is they are not good memories, I hate all this. I thought the friends I had could understand me, but they didn't care. In the end I end up being forgotten by everyone, nothing I did mattered, I'm tired of all this. I am alone and abandoned, surrounded by an immense darkness that sooner or later will consume me. I won't do anything to change my situation, I already did a lot for myself and I still failed. No one I know knows what I go through every day if they could understand what it feels like, but I am indifferent to them as I write; They are probably enjoying their life.
