THERE COMES THE POLICEEEEEEEEEE
WARNING! THE TEXT BELOW IS EXTREMELY BORING!
I headcanon that, while swapfell is set after a neutral run in underswap, this run not only ended a good part of the population but also created a huge gap in economic situations. The human that caused this had made a neutral-almost genocide in the areas of Snowdin and Waterfall and were later stopped by the guards in Hotland. So now there are three kinds of monsters, the ones who lost everything (snowdin & waterfall), the ones who lost some of their things and family (hotland), and the ones who lost nothing (new home). ((I’m not counting the Ruins because Toriel was there, and probably told them about the other humans’ fate, thus, encouraging the mass murder))
So, after this event, the price and/or rent for houses and flats went higher since “If another human fell, the chance to survive was greater”. and with more income in those places, the guards got paid better and would DO their job.
Most monsters wouldn’t help them and the guards sent to that area were trainees that, due to the economic crisis in the area, weren’t paid or paid properly. Being just underpaid trainees, they didn’t do well their job and those places became the n°1 hotspot for drug dealing, hiring a hitman, or just to find the cheapest prostitutes. Families rebuilt each other in these conditions and learned to call it home. All of their income would go to hotland either in taxes or basic need products such as food. The shopkeepers also got most of their stuff from new home so buying anything in these areas was a bit more expensive than doing so in hotland or new home.
After reaching the surface this didn’t change much, Gold had more value on the surface but unlike Hotland and NH, who could afford a place and hold on until finding a job. Waterfall and snowdin had to find cheaper alternatives to survive, this being buying a prefabricated house and living somewhere rent-free, so, hills near the city.
About Alphys and Undyne:
Theirs is a specific case. Undyne originates from Waterfall but got a special place in the labs for being the royal scientist.
Alphys comes from hotland but despite this, she often goes to waterfall and rarely snowdin to see how messed up their guard system is.
Both are in a “secret” relationship, and everyone knows. Mainly the waterfall monsters, they know everything about it.
Most people are intimidated by them.
Papyrus isn’t because he and Undyne were friends in Elementary school.
Sans isn’t scared of Alphys because that blow to the head left his sense of fear a bit messed up.
Alphys tried to improve the guard system once and as soon as she entered snowdin she saw two guards smoking weed.
Though Alphys is from Hotland, she doesn’t have a house of her own and lives in the building the Royalty pays for the higher class (most skilled) guards, where she now and then sneaks some people from the streets.
Something general:
Monsters have their family name AND the place where they were born, for example, Juan Woodlock from Snowdin
This is what most of the time determines if they get to work or not, is a class thing.
About Papyrus and his brother:
Papyrus is “Papyrus Graphite from Hotland” while his brother is “Sans Graphite from Snowdin”
Sans was born in hotland but they moved to snowdin a few years before the human fell, thus, his father registered him as a Snowdin citizen. Papyrus had already lived and studied in hotland before Sans’ was born, that’s why their documents are different. Neither of them minded though, they didn’t even notice until AFTER they had to get new documents on the surface.

Swapfell: Brother, can swapfell (refereing to swapfell red sans) stay over? Swapfell (the brother): No Swapfell (the red): I’m staying over *grabs swapfell’s hand and runs upstairs* Swapfell (the red): *Shuts doors and curtains* Tonight *last curtain closes for dramatic effect* Tonight I’m teaching you what no one has before... ... Swapfell (the red): and that’s how you brush your teeth without using your limbs, it seems useless now but when the goverment demands our limbs to experiment on our especies, you’ll thank me for having the most gleaming teeth in monsterkind
Day 4, giving swapfell(purple) a break, hello swapfell(red) (firealpaca keeps moving the colours and ruining stuff, i’m upset, this took so long because the colours KEPT MOVING.)

Nonetheless I hope you enjoy it! Make sure to take care of yourself as well! Also btw this isn't proofread so I apologize for any mistakes!
TW: smoking
Swap Papyrus!! Stretch
He's a skeleton who likes dates to be indoors but unlike Cash he likes walking around and going on fun outings. He's often outside with his brother or watching over everyone anyway so he's developed a love for things like picnics, walking at night, stargazing and the like.
His fear of the world resetting again often causes him to close himself off. I mean, for him it doesn't matter, right? Cause it's just going to start back at square one. But that day never comes. He knows that it won't happen again but it's still a huge worry for him. So I think it'd be hard to get on his trusting side first, no matter how much he likes you in a romantic light.
When he starts to warm and loosen up around you I think he'd be a really sweet date mate. He likes to lean on you a lot, not in a mean 'poking fun at your height' way more like a 'he's tired and likes the warmth' kinda vibe/beat.
He does small things that don't really seem like a big deal but are caring and endearing like blowing smoke the other way (unlike Cash), offering you food and drinks (even though he mostly consumes honey), and just small miscellaneous stuff kinda like sharing blankets and lending you clothes.
Stretch most definitely, enjoys seeing you in his colors. Or even shirts for that matter. It's like you're carrying a part of him everywhere that way! He'd also be a bit corny with his puns and get a little embarrassing but he continues to make them because you laugh at them. Also because his brother groans dramatically and he thinks it's funny.
Loves taking naps with you. Also lazy dances in the kitchen at night make him smile very wide. He's not immune to flattery as well though so I think Stretch would also get kind of flustered at small intimate acts. Definitely tries to play it cool and fails.
Tells you stories about his underground in exchange you tell him stories back. Enjoys the cultural exchange and likes hearing about your experiences too. He often ends up staring at you very clearly not listening when this happens and you just tend to playfully roll your eyes.
Cash!! Swapfell Papyrus!
Pretty lazy skeleton who likes low effort activities, greedy and lazy. So like, dates and stuff would be typically in doors where he doesn't have to do much. I.E. movies dates, dinners and typical gaming sessions that turn into hang outs. Stuff like that.
Cash most definitely has commitment issues. He's not used to a constant relationship with him and his brother disagreeing so often and his relationships with other people tend to be either flings or people he's robbed.
With that being said, he would like to hang out often once he realizes you're not going to up and leave him so quickly and I think he'd get pretty clingy. Likes to have an arm around you and enjoys physical touch. Cash would probably like to be lazy with you and annoy people with you around. You have interesting perspectives and reactions to things so he'd like to mess around and get kinda mean with his pranks, whether that is towards you or other people just depends on the day.
Side note but because he's a greedy skeleton in general I don't imagine he'd let you wander off far from him too much. Cash values your time a lot and can get petty when you start to get busy without clueing him in too. He likes to be a part of what you do.
Definitely the kind of guy to fuck with you by doing small annoying shit like blowing smoke your way and getting overly possessive over you and what you're doing. Again, his greed gets the best of him very often. Oh also definitely the type of guy to put shit higher on the shelves so you need his help. (<-- this backfires when his brother gets onto him about it)
Swapfell Papyrus! Mutt/Rus
The feeling of his house suffocates him a lot so I think he'd like to be more out and about. So dates would typically be at events like aquariums, carnivals, walks, lantern festivals/Diwali and things of the like. He doesn't have to do too much but he also gets to enjoy new sights and get out of the house.
Mutt! He's a very quiet and stand off -ish skeleton. So I think even beginning a relationship or friendship with him is going to be a challenge within itself. He doesn't typically reply back in conversations and is very curt and straight faced.
I think the beginning of your relationship would start with either his brother taking a liking to you or you making it your goal to at least get him to crack a smile.
Because his brother is very.. well, demanding and strict he doesn't like being caught slacking. So when he quietly laughs at something you said he immediately cringes and tightens up, judging by your open mouthed and wide eyed expression he assumes you notice and quickly retreats to his room.
I think he starts to learn to relax a little around you. Lots of leaning on you for support and pulling you into his lap, while he mumbles incoherently about his day or people around him into your shoulder. The romantic feelings start very late, he's a sucker for casual intimacy so he doesn't really pay attention to the implications of being so close and around you 24/7. He just enjoys the soft comfort of your presence a lot.
Once that feeling of yearning sets in, it takes a while for him to confess to you. Out of fear of losing the few soft people he has around him. But you guys eventually start dating! Which includes a lot of small domestic acts like sewing up his jacket, cooking for each other and just generally being close with one another. Totally softie.
Especially likes to lay down in your lap and just.. lay there as you idly run a soft and gentle hand down his skull, soothing his troubles. Much like the trend of taking naps with your partner I think he especially likes to wrap his legs and arms around you, caging you in to nap.
Much like how he is with his brother, gets over protective as well with you. Includes a lot of glaring and holding you closer. Sometimes he even growls lowly, which, you didn't even know how could do.
Thanks for reading if you did! Sorry I didn't include the pet peeves part aaaa, might turn that into a separate post.. requests are open!!
Swapfell Papyrus AKA Cash headcanons and thoughts
Tws: none! Just cash being a meanie.
Cash treats you like a cat. It's both kind of funny and so, so annoying. For example :
You can't yawn around him. He's so quick to stick a finger in your mouth, even when you try and block it he manages to disrupt your yawn by moving you around.
Often times, he comes up behind you, even when you don't need any help in the kitchen and picks you up. By the armpits too. This is especially a habit if you're being firm with him, having to look up at him, so he brings you to his height and laughs at you struggling to kick around before just slumping and glaring at him in his hands.
It's either that or he bends down to his knees and stares at you with a grin, only acknowledging that he's being a dickhead with puns and a wide, pointy smirk. As you pause mid way through your angry sentence to stare in disbelief at him.
"You motherfucker."
"Wha?"
"You know 'what', you fucker."
"No clue whatcha' on 'bout.."
He also coos at you. Way too often. He passes it off as getting cute ness aggression. He smooshes your face together and shakes you around, not too harshly just really heavy handedly. He pets you by placing a hand at your forehead and sliding it down to your back. Rinse and repeat.
You noticed he likes squishing you. Not like a fidget toy but enough to raise an eyebrow at him. Typically raises his hands to squish and un-squish your arms and torso. Something about the body tensing up and down that makes him laugh.
He likes imagining you as an annoyed animal. Always swishing your tail and side eyeing him but not totally pushing him away. He could practically see the puffed up tail on you now! Maybe even a pair of ears that are pinned back in annoyance. Gah! He just needs to shake you around, flexing and un-flexing his hands he reaches over and starts to slide a hand down you as you groan at him to stop.
Thanks for reading! Requests are open! Feel free to share your thoughts and ideas!
Here's a little doodle of the idea lol :))
Drabble thingy wingy ingy I wrote before work
Swapfell Papyrus is called Mutt here
Tws: none I can think of :))
Waving off the last customer before closing you smile when they finally turn and leave, exhaling the pent up tension from the work you lean on the counter and close your eyes.
It was peaceful. It wasn't a busy day but you weren't well adjusted to talking to people yet. Tiring work but it had you productive so you didn't mind. You sit up, putting on a strained smile when you hear the bell on the door jingling - a customer coming in right before closing. Looking towards the door you immediately dropped your friendly employee smile and frowned.
He was a jackass and a bit of a handful with his teasing attitude and lazy snarky comments but you both considered each other friends.
"Heya there, thought you.. ya know.. are supposed to ***work*** here. Not lean 'gainst the counter and look so glum" Your friend, Mutt, drawled with a lazy grin. He had a thing for getting on people's nerves. And he especially enjoyed getting on yours. For whatever reason.
"Hi to you too Mutt. I do work, I just finished my chores early, now what do you want?" You sighed, placing your elbows against the counter and lean your head in the cupped palms. Looking at him with a soft glare.
"Is the 'finished chores' in the room with us right now?" He shot back, tipping a cup on the counter off, luckily it was empty but you reached up and flicked it to roll and hit him.
"Well, anyways, got bored and wanted ta' come say hi" He continued - picking lazily at his sharp teeth with his pinky, looking around the store.
"Bored? Of sitting and dozing off at your station? Wow your work must be really difficult.." Rolling your eyes at him he laughed at what you assumed was your annoyed response. Despite the low chuckling you added :
"You know you just wanted to come bother me. Bitch."
Maybe it wasn't mature of you but you felt like he needed to know what he was being. Besides it was almost closing time and he was your friend, you know he wouldn't get offended and yell about wanting to talk to your higher ups.
"Awe, caught me. While that is true.. M'lord came by and ordered me to drop this off for ya." Mutt reached into his baggy pant pocket and pulled out a small brown bag that was folded at the top but had wrinkles, showing that someone was rough with it - probably both him and his brother.
When he dropped the bag on the counter he leaned back on it and you reached for it before stopping and giving him a quizzical stare. Asking him silently what was in it.
"Wha? I dun' know what's inside. Probably leftovers if I had to guess." Shrugging at you he tapped the bag and pushed it closer with his index finger.
Accepting that answer you push the folded top up and open, seeing a purple sticky note on top of a container. He was right, it was leftovers. Opening the bag up further to try and read the note, the store's florescent lights shined a little into the bag allowing you to see what his brother wrote.
"Make sure to eat it all." With a very angry frowny face next to it. His brother was nice, to you at least. You only met him a few times he seemed to warm up to you being his brother's friend quickly. Apparently the rest of Mutt's acquaintances were all weirdos who - and in his words - "didn't have anything going for them in their sad, miserable lives.". He was definitely mean and a hard ass sometimes but meant well.
Mutt admitted a while back to telling his brother about your eating habits and something about him being upset. So he started forcing leftovers into bags and giving you them occasionally. He typically delivered them himself but he was a busy man.
He wasn't the greatest cook but his pasta dishes were actually super well done. And it's not like you can complain about how food tastes when all you eat is greasy junk food. Which his brother has been very vocal about disapproving of - but the gesture made you smile warmly it felt nice to have someone care about you in such a way that they'd send you food.
You look back up to Mutt after getting lost in your thoughts, taking notice of his fox like eyes and wide chesire grin. He looked like that often.
"Thanks. Tell your brother I said thank you to him too."
The taller skeleton sighed dramatically and groaned quietly to himself before nodding. "Yeah yeah, I'd tell em that anyway. He'd get on my ass about your manners if ya didn't say thank you."
Softly laughing at that you turned and opened the door to behind the counter and moved to give him a hug. You know he likes hugging people, said he enjoys the warmth more once or twice before. So you made sure to at least get him some jackets and the hot hand things.
You felt him pause and hesitate before chuckling lowly again and reaching down to wrap around you too.
"You'll let me come into tha' kitchen and eat sum of that food right? M'lord's culinary is killing me, bein' his gennie pig."
Patting his back and punching softly in the shoulder you sighed and moved back to the door, holding it open for him as he quickly grinned and slinked right past you. Making a b-line for the back to steal food as you followed behind him, making sure to grab your gifted dinner for the night.
Thanks for reading it you did :)) feel free to request or add onto what you thought of the post!
