Chapter 0: The Guardian
Core has been walking in that hollow dimension for quite some time, their sole company being the echo of their footsteps on the immaculate ground of that ever winding space, before they decided to call for a halt. They had no doubts left, this place was dead empty. They had really found a timeline that cannot be accessed from anywhere in the multiverse… Well physically at least.
“I might be the first one to be here.” They thought aloud, a glimpse of excitement in their voice, although received by none but their ears.
Many thoughts seemed to rush through them at once: What use could this place be for? And how could they exploit it for the greater good? They could use it as a safe house for the people bound to die from a Genocide Run… Or a way to contain hazardous threats. So many possibilities this place hosted that they felt like they still had a heart and it was pounding against their chest.
They felt surreal. The way here wasn't easy, that was for sure. But despites all the suffering they endured, Core strangely felt at peace. They held no regrets, no sadness… Only hope.
Smiling at themself, they continued to walk while putting order in the river of thoughts that rushed through them. While still in their pondering, they came across a very odd spectacle.
“Huh?”
Their surprised tone was greeted by a most queer display: Right in front of them stood a range of doors, rising without a wall to hold them, all having the same size, but never the same frame or handle or even color. In addition, they seemed to go on and on without being able to catch the end of the gallery in their sight.
What was the meaning of this? How come such a hidden place would have an arrangement of wooden doors standing neatly on their own?
Their curiosity got the better of them, despite their hyper-awareness of the multiverse, there were places, like this timeline, they still had trouble perceiving. Who knows where those doors could lead to? Maybe another place they couldn't properly see!
Their grey childish form approached one of the doors slowly, raising their arm to its round dark blue handle, it was cold to the touch… As they were about to twist it a stern and hard and massive voice from behind made them jump.
“I would advise caution in handling that.”
Their pale figure turned to face the newcomer. They were so deep in thoughts that they hadn't realized that someone entered this realm!
He didn't look human, but had the same silhouette. He wore a white hood falling into a cloak, streaks of red on its right ends and of blue on its left ones. Under it was a grey shirt and brown jeans separated by a golden belt. Red blue and gold ribbons decorated his black boots.
His face, which was completely shadowy, had no feature but his eyes, which were matching his style: The right one was red and the left one was blue, but both looked penetrating and seemed to look deep into them.
They noticed that some of his clothes were a bit torn, and he had an axe and sword hung on his back, betraying his familiarity with battle.
“Oh! Hello!”
Core greeted him, but he only nodded as an answer. He asked in a deep voice:
“How did you find this place?”
“Oh… It's a bit of a long story…” Core answered quietly, still unsure if that stranger was a friend or a foe.
“I can tell” He calmly said, “Your presence feels quite atypical. I can see you and talk to you, yet it feels like you're not here… Or actually, that you're a part of here… And everywhere… How odd. I assume that's how you found this place.”
Core was slightly taken aback. How could he tell what they were?
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. I was just curious. In three millennia you're the first person to find this place, besides me of course.” The stranger told them, his voice becoming warmer.
Three millennia!? He was old enough to know this place for three thousand years!? How many more surprises this individual held!?
“Are you perhaps the inhabitant of this world?” Core asked with interest.
“Not really. I merely use it to hide when my presence isn't needed in the multiverse. Although I came from it, I do not own it.”
“Who are you?”
Core asked this last question without thinking, their curiosity grew too impatient, and the words left their mouth before realizing, but they didn't care. They wanted to know who this mysterious monster was living alone in a confined timeline.
“I could give you my name, but I assume from your face that you'll be left very unsatisfied.”
“Mhm” A cheeky grin on their face, Core nodded enthusiastically. They were eager to hear his words.
“I am what you could call...a guardian of order. Not of destruction, nor of creation. But making sure the balance between the two stays in equilibrium."
"So you protect AUs from threats?"
"Yes.... And no.”
Seeing the child’s puzzled expression he thought for a moment before knowing what to say.
"Creation is something that must be ensured in continuity. In short, let's take a single world as an example. New generations must be born, new crops harvested and new cities built to preserve global peace.
“But let's pretend some crops got infected by some disease that can be passed to the people eating them. These crops must be destroyed to preserve the said global peace.
"Unfortunately, such a concept is so complex that often people disagree about when destruction is needed and when it's not. And of course, there are still greedy buffoons who simply care for themselves and send this balance to the trash.
"I make sure that when people mess with this balance, I teach them, by any means possible, to leave it be. But at a multiversal scale.”
"But where were you when multiple timelines got destroyed because of Genocide Runs!?" Core exclaimed suddenly.
"Such events do not compromise multiversal stability. Destruction of mere timelines is like removing a sand piece from the ocean. However if such destruction were to spread across the multiverse. That's when I must interfere.”
"Isn't it hypocritical to choose who to save and to not to like that?" Core asked, the distress clearly visible in their voice.
“Hypocritical or not, this isn't my purpose. I have no rights to interfere in AUs like that or else... Let's just say that the consequences are not worth it.”
Seeing that Core still had a severe expression on their face, he sighed in defeat before saying, a hint of sadness heard in his voice:
“Listen, It’s not that I don’t want to help those in need but… Think of me like a program. A program that makes sure that the balance of the multiverse stays stable. But that program can’t activate itself unless said balance is endangered.”
“Oh, I see… Kinda like how an antivirus program can’t work unless it detects a virus!”
“Exactly.”
“But isn’t it distressing to know you can’t help many people that need to be saved!? That so many lives were lost even if you had the strength to save them!?”
The warrior looked at the little childish figure, an ancient pain clearly visible in his mismatched eyes. Slowly, as if the word came out with difficulty, he responded:
“I…try to console myself by saying that saving them doesn't necessarily mean doing them just justice.”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, imagine that you saved someone from a difficult situation that could have claimed their life. They would be safe, but what if they become an evil person in the future and ends up performing atrocious deeds, while your action was driven by good intent, was altogether a good deed?”
Core thought of his words for seconds… While they could see the reasoning in them, they weren't fully convincing.
“So what you're saying is, you never know what the consequences of an act, good or bad, could be, right?”
Seeing his nod, they asked, a little smile on their face.
“But isn't that just overthinking it? When you do your best to be a good person, can you really blame yourself for unforeseen events?”
The warrior’s eyes dilated in astonishment, and, to Core's surprise, had a small chuckle that lasted for a moment. He had no visible mouth, yet Core guessed he was smiling at them when saying.
“Maybe… But when you're three thousand years old, you don't find yourself short on thinking time.”
In front of his unexpected answer, Core couldn't help but giggle at their turn.
“I can't argue with that. My name is Frisk, but you can call me Core. How about you? Do you have a name to go by mister program guardian?”
He looked at their dark eyes, and spoke a word he himself never thought he'd heard for a very very extended amount of time.
“Nitham. My name is Nitham.”
A.N: Drawing by ZoiesCreator, my incredible lil sis. Kudos to her. Special thanks to her(I'd tag her but she has yet to make a Tumblr page.)
Thank you for reading the first chapter of Nitham's story. Any feedback or questions are most welcome.
And thanks to those who subscribed already: Cookie, Assioux and Mewo.
I don't own Core Frisk, they're the property of DokuDoki from the comic CoreTale
Again, thank you for reading.
Stay tuned.
Waddap gang, Icehorse2007 here.
Welcome to my Tumblr blogs where I'll post the story of an Undertale AU OC.
His name is Nitham (means order in Arabic), a guardian of the multiverse. His role is to ensure that the balance between creation and destruction doesn't get compromised. He has no right to interfere with its continuity unless its stability is endangered.
There will be references to other AUs but I'll make sure to point them out and their respective creators.
The story will unfold as a... Well written story lmao, with bits of drawings here and there. I dunno how to make comics
Hope y'all will like it. Criticism is open.
This is him:
Drawing by the amazing Yaya!

biography of crystalbrain
summary:
crystalbrain is a foolish idiot brain. they are composed only of the finest sugar, salt, and perhaps more illegal things, perhaps not…crystalbrain tries to maek a thought, but a thought owns them they think. they think to theirself "why do i exist" but then smells their armpits. crystalbrain sometimes says he, sometimes they, but 100% of the time is an idiot god brain. crystalbrain refuses to belieeve that the romans didnt pay their soldier dudes in salt, becuz crystalbrain doesn't want to admit they're wrong. crystalbrain rules over the entire universe and this is why the universe is so fucked. crystalbrain never got very far in parasite eve but thinks he's a "respect mah authority" on this game. crystalbrain has more video games than books in their brain. crystalbrain won't shut the fuck up and thinks stupidity is still stupid because he's stupid or maybe smart in that respect.
crystalbrain heard that if u took a piece of shit and threw them into space they would eventually turn into a crystal due to entropy, or maybe this is wrong. crystalbrain spent their youth doing speed enemas in their brainus. crystalbrain has never had a husband, a wife, or any kids that grew up to be little crystalbrains. crystalbrain has no electricity in their neurons but just really cool lightning shit that is the domain of enlightenened stupidity.
in the beginning…
…there was a tv. this tv got fucked in the ass and decided to give birth to a brain. this brain was in the fetal state inside the tv tube. after growing on disney, the maligignant semen created by priests who jack off in confessionals created quanantum shifts in reality that caused tv to explode, and one of these broken tv shards was crystalbrain. he was lodged in teh brain of an infant but no one ever knew, and having caused brain damage to this infant created a negative feedback loop of complete stupididity. the child didn't know it, but his subconscious did, that he would have to rise up and get revenenge on the priest who jacked off in the confessional and created the abominatation that is himself. this was a life-long task and there were all kinds of hurdles to complete, includuding not getting molested by anyone, learning how to avoid doing basic arithmetic, making sure that he grew up with proper non-heterosexual orientation, programming dick pics in QBASIC, and smoking copious quanitities of marijuana, crack cocaine, and meth.
part 2:
crystalbrain read the book naked lunch by william s. burroughs but he was 2 stoopid 2 understand it, even though it was written on drugs. he had hallucinations from the movie blade runner and modern society seemed to open up to him and make him a king in his own mind. the only problem was that he was aktually in rehab for going psychotic from doing lots of drugs. this was an unfortunate side effekt of being the kind of guy who smokes crack all the time, and he found taht the best course of action would be 2 make noise music. so he did this and set up a set of speakers 2 blast merzbow in front of the archdiocecese of some city or another. this caused priests 2 roll on the floor in agony clutching a knife and cutting off their pedophile genitals, but only a few boys were saved from being completely groomed and molested by catholic priest guys.
the nuns did not approve, but fortunately crystalbrain had artificial intelligence training on how to deal with nuns with machine guns. was it he that had the machine guns, or the nuns who had the machine guns in taht last sententence? it may have been both because the nuns advanced on him with machine guns and virginity on their minds but he totally wiped out like a squadron of nuns and they were black and white and red all over. this was a monumenental acheivment and he went on 2 become the king of the church for 2 minutes until the national guard arrived, but using telepathetic mind control powers he was able 2 maek the national guard become on his side, so they went rampaging through the cities leik a bunch of methed up guys with machine guns, which they aktually were since he gave them all glass pipes and huge chunks of crystal meth to smoke. anyways they were going 2 taek over whatever city but they ended up having homosexual intercourse instaed. this was expected because dudes with guns aktually want 2 fuck guys in the ass but they're too dumb 2 realize this so they shoot ppl i guess.
crystalbrain wandered the streets liek a manic preacher, telling people the gospel of drugs, but he really had kind of ruined his life because now everyone wanted him dead. so he sort of shifted down into an alternate dimension on the darkweb where there was a metaverse where dudes were selling acid and he met a dude with a bunch of cryptocurrency and they had lots of drugs. so now crystalbrain went into the school playground near the place he grew up and started telling ppl that taking LSD is fun becuz he felt bad about the idea of selling meth to kids so he just sold them acid so they would hallucinate lots of gaping maws of infininity swallowing their minds and sanity in a psychedelic void.
to be continued…
part 3:
doing hard drugs took its toll on crystalbrain but he had magical powers 2 heal his body and mind he got from a ghost in a graveyard. he had stayed up for 4 days and realized that reality was bullshit and that he had the power 2 heal his wounds liek a greek god or something. then he went 2 try 2 stop a train with his bare hands but no matter how much crack he smoked the train always knocked him out of the way. he decided 2 taek a bunch of thermite and melt the railroad tracks on a train in russia and this indeed caused a crash but it wasn't as satisisfying as making it crash by standing in front of it and punching it. he had a vision, a goal in his mind taht he would one day punch a train and it would fly into the sun and burn up. this was a dream he held on to for dear life.
one day he discovered pcp and this was indeed the cure for his ailment of not being abel to punch a train into the sun. he smoked some marijuana that was laced with pcp and suddenly he was the most powerful being in all of eternity and it felt really great. he found a train and punched it so hard that when it hit the sun it caused a solar flair that heated the earth by 10 degrees fairenheight for a couple minutes. if u ever felt hot maybe u were in his reality where this happened (in some other realities he did not succeed in stopping the train and got hit by it and died i guess but this is the good reality we're talking about where crystalbrain punched a train into the sun and maeks NFTs still).
No bc in the theater i watched it at the moment andrew took that mask off everyone screamed, a full on high pitched scream that only dogs could hear and then when tobey appeared he got a whole ass round off applause but that is only a quarter of what they deserve ngl
nothing will ever be as beautiful to me as an entire theater full of teenagers and grown ass adults shrieking their asses off when andrew garfield appeared on the screen during no way home and then the same theater full of teenagers and grown ass adults shrieking their asses off AGAIN once tobey maguire appeared as if that wasn’t the logical conclusion to andrew’s appearance
my favorite go to TTRPG character, i play him in multiverse conceps too; his name is always Valdo Udvardy except in certain universes the first name changes; hes an eccentric wizard design is based on Eugene Hütz from Gogol Bordello
Dr Strange and Wanda: hey yeah so there's a multiverse and-
Peter:
What if, in the spirit of the multiverse, these incidents are massive species from another universe crossing into ours and leaving an impression on your physical universe as a cloud?
could you please update the top!spock tag? (I just like me some bottom!jim <3) THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING <333
The tag has gotten lo’s new fic since this ask was sent. Also the pon farr tag is mostly Top!spock stories.
Prehensile: An Alien Love Story by Pamdizzle
That trust was the only reason he was here, Jim reminded himself. Spock had come to him, unlearned in the demands of physical need, and confided that he could not seem to ‘alleviate the symptoms’ of his physical arousal on his own. He’d come to Jim for pointers, for Chrissake.
Call Me Brother by Deanna Gray
Based on the TOS episode “Whom Gods Destroy”. When Kirk tells Garth that Spock is his brother, he has no idea the connotations of that word when it comes to Vulcans. But he’s about to find out.

Emergency Sex Pollen Contact by TheShinyLizard
“Yes, Spock?” Kirk asked, drowsy with sleep.
“There is a message on my terminal, asking me to be your MDM-Alpha2b emergency contact. Please clarify.”
Encircled by Rynne
Spock has a ring kink, which doesn’t exactly help his control when Jim decides to buy a wedding ring. And wear it. In public.
Prime-fix-it tag update? I'm begging on my knees here, if that helps?
Some of these are more generations fix-it stories

Warnings: brief suicidal thoughts
THIS. It is one of the Spock Prime Big Bang fics, has wonderfully original plot and is so well written. I had the honour of doing art for this in the big bang.
Starlight by Brian J Christopher (ikudou)
Spock always considered trying to locate the Nexus illogical, and futile. He didn’t come looking for it; one universe over, it found him. And it was hungry.
Never Parted by Tlema
What if Picard managed to revive Jim Kirk before Spock set out to save Romulus?
I was so sure I had recced this already, but realized I had put link for different story with this summary. The shame…
Since I love crossover so much, I decided to make a video on my TikTok then post it here. This will become a thing one day, I don't know when but I'll make one day. I already have a name for this crossover but it's still secret just wait for it😊😊😊. Right now, have a Springtrap complaining to his Boss Devil ALOT👍👍👍
Holy shit, Loki just made every other marvel film and TV canon to the now Marvel Cinematic Multiverse. We can have the Fox X-Men show up In the MCU and have it be canon without having to retcon either timeline.
The Difference between Timelines and Alternate Universes
I’ve been hearing these words timelines and AUs being thrown around and use interchangeably as if they are one and the same when that’s anything further from the truth. Which is why my pretentious ass is gonna try to explain the difference a timeline and an Alternate Universe as well as how to tell the difference.
First off, we have to mention that Undertale clearly possesses a multiverse -an Underverse if you will- in which every Universe resides in and within each universe is a timeline. Unlike the multiverse though, which can contain an infinite number of alternate universes, a universe may only have one timeline active at a once. The only way for a new timeline to become active is through reloading or resetting back to a previous point in time. Meanwhile, a new universe is always created due to the actions of transdimensional beings who reside outside of the Under-verse (aka: us). It is impossible for anyone that resides within the Under-verse to create a new universe by themselves without the help of a transdimensional being. At best, they can create new timelines, but that’s it.
So since we establish the basics, let’s get down to the key difference. Timelines are essentially the variables of a universe. They can be radically different from one another, but so long as they are a possibility within a universe, they can exist. For example: Chara never falling into the underground, Asriel and Chara both surviving, or the war never occurring in the first place. While the results may sometimes be radically different from another, they are all possible.
As for alternate universes, they are essentially the non-possibilities of a universe, no matter what, it is physically impossible for them to exist as a timeline in Undertale. Generally, Anything that operates under different mechanics and universal laws then Undertale or radically alters or swaps the souls of characters counts as an AU. Note: just because characters have a different personality than in canon, that does not always mean their soul: IE, their subconscious, inner self, or whatever, has been altered as well.
For example, let’s say Alphys decides to build a body for Napstablook alongside Mettaton as well. This event will effect and alter their personalities from that point forth, but who they are inside remains the same, plus that action is a possibility so it would count as being an alternate timeline.
If it was something like Sans always had the personality of Papyrus, vice-verse, or whatever. So long as they possess zero or barely any similarities to their Undertale self, then they exist within an alternate universe. Like if Monster Kid now acts exactly like Joseph Stalin or if Toriel acts like a crazy Florida lady that hates children, then that change would count it as an AU.
Now I mentioned before how only one timeline can be active in a universe at a timeline. Which may have some of you thinking “Doesn’t that mean all the different fanworks of Undertale are alternate Universes then even if the change is rather minor?”
Just because only one timeline can be running at once, it doesn’t mean that other timelines can’t exist alongside it just in a sort of limbo mode. Take for example a race between twelve different horses. The people within the active timeline perceive horse #3 as the winner, while we can perceive any of the horses winning or none at all, we just have to choose the outcome we want to see and we’ll see it.
So no, not every fanwork is an alternate universe. Some are AUs and others timelines, which are which, you decide because I honestly don’t have the time to go through every single one because there are literally thousands. I’m just doing this because I find it fun applying logic and rules to a world with spaghetti loving Skeletons and Metrosexual ghost-bot David Bowie.
By the way, do you want a theory/view on souls or determination next?
omg omg random thought. you’re laying in your backyard, or on a field or something during the summer. just laying down. it’s nice and breezy. the weather isn’t too hot, and there is a nice, cool breeze. then suddenly, you feel a gust of wind, which is colder than the others have been, and you open your eyes, to see that you’re not in your reality anymore.
Trainers in Mulvera will pick one of three starters, and it's time to meet them! Kittack is your Mulveran Grass type starter! With energy for days this pokemon may run you ragged, but put in the time and effort and you'll find an invaluable partner for life! Yeah I know we ARE getting a canonical grass cat starter with Sprigatito, but would you believe I've had this design before the announcement? Kittack is based on tiger cubs and energetic kittens.
