Fanontale is an AU that takes inspiration from Undertale fanon perceptions by using it to influence the roles the beloved characters take, as well as manifesting in-universe, affecting the characters and their stories.
This is not an Undertale AU about "What if Undertale fanon was good", but rather one that seeks to answer the question of "what if fanon perceptions had direct consequences for the lives these characters live?"

Reader (Y/N) takes Chara's role. They're the narrator, and from now on, they've promised to be a bit nicer, perhaps even helpful, because they know Chara'll need all the help they can get. While it's entirely possible for them to fall back into their old habits, they're trying, and that's what matters. Who knows, maybe they'll start to get along a bit more!

"Thanks for 399 followers!! wow. you can divide this number by three now. we're merely a dozen numbers away... from hitting 999 digits. i love seeing all the wonderful fan responses and all the theories and the positive feedback, its so much fun. just the sheer outpour of joy and love and enthusiasm for this project which... i never really expected to take off like this? just. thank you." - Penny

"Holy shit, can't believe we're already at 399 followers! Penny and I have had a really good time working on this and I'm glad to see people're interested in what we've got!! We'll get to even more good shit real soon, promise. Thank you all very much for showing interest ^-^"

Reader (Y/N) takes Chara’s role. They’re an esoteric and cryptic being whose very nature is shrouded in darkness, yet they’re someone who seems very acquainted with the nature of this world. They seem to behave as if they know all of the people here, being especially familiar with Chara’s “evil nature”. They therefore act as Chara’s narrator, making snide comments and sometimes on a rare occasion actually being helpful. Though Chara didn’t ask for help. And doesn’t appreciate being called evil.

PREMIERE | Sherman C. - If I'm Ok [RCTD003]

In 2021, Eastern Michigan University Archives lecturer Matt Jones began documenting the story of Ypsilanti’s Human Rights Ordinance #1279 in an effort to explore the ways in which local queer activism has evolved multi-generationally in Ypsilanti. What began as a refusal of service by a local print shop to a small EMU student group quickly turned into a years-long battle over who was deserving of basic human rights. To the LGBTQ activists and community members documented here, they had always been present in the community: working, paying taxes, painting their houses, mowing their lawns, attending council meetings, and even serving on council. This ordinance battle was about more than just LGBT rights—it was about protecting the human rights of all Ypsilantians. On March 21, 2022, Jones talked to outspoken activist, community organizer, and participant in the ordinance campaigns, Charles Duty. Born and raised in Ann Arbor, Duty found himself in Ypsilanti in the 1980s, when life was becoming more and more expensive in his hometown. At an early age he was taught what discrimination is, and why it is wrong, and he continued to carry those lessons into adulthood. In Ypsi, Duty became familiar with local organizations and city officials, working with them to change the quality of life for everyone. After hearing about the print shop incident, he took the initiative to become an outspoken and highly-visible advocate for the ordinance campaigns, learning how to keep marching and living authentically. In this interview, Duty shares some of the finer details of LGBTQ life in Ypsi before and after the ordinance, expands on his connections to political figures and groups, and reiterates the importance of standing up for oneself and others.

Charles Duty, Oral History Interview, 2022

I tried to read between the lines
But u were never really mine
Baby girl what is your type
Define someone you really like

Your silence cuts your silence burns
The Knife in my heart that you turn
I know your secret deep inside
I see the truth behind your eyes.

Between The Lines

Between the Lines explores the intersection of local and national issues. This episode discusses Newburyport's gentrification -- its positives and negatives, and what it means for the city's culture. We also discuss cultural evolution on a national scale, and why despite objectively positive change, people always seem to long for the past.

Host: Eben Diskin
Editor, The Townie

Guests:
James Charles Roy is an author and historian with 8 books to his credit, and a new one coming out this fall. He's also written articles in both academic and popular journals. Some viewers might remember him for his biweekly newsletter, The Newburyport Liberator, that he launched mainly to annoy the then mayor, which he succeeded in doing. He has been deeply involved in the community: he sat on the board of the Newburyport Library renovation committee; spent thirty frustrating years as chair of the mayor's Parking and Traffic Committee, whose triumphant finale was the creation of the downtown parking garage, the whole point of which was to remove cars from the waterfront. Today's wonderful park by the river is the direct result of that effort. And he co-chaired the committee that created Newburyport's only Local Historic District.

John Giordano is a visual artist, writer, and coach. He started Ramp Coaching in 206, while he was a professor at Merrimack College. He has started numerous community-based educational access programs in Philadelphia and Boston focused on college access for first generation college students. He has served as board president of Theater in the Open, and has volunteered for many arts education organizations, as well as local political campaigns. John is the co-founder of Indivisible, a Newburyport area group focused on strengthening democracy. He is currently working on an initiative to create access to coaching for a wide array of people.

The Underground has been overcome by a dangerous prophecy, one that has spread like wildfire. The Absolute will come- and they will usher in a new era. Some think of them as the end of the world, the final nail in the coffin for monsterkind, and others idolise them to an absurd extent, heralding them as their new god. 

Watch Chara, the fallen a̶n̶g̶e̶l̶ human, have to fight their way out of these perceptions and distortions, and maybe uncover the truest version of themselves along the way.
