Not a problem at all! I like these two, as well!
Also, I’m so sorry I’ve taken so long with these eek! I almost forgot about them, and then I went through one of those ‘no motivation’ slumps. So this is just me trying to get back into the swing of things. Hopefully I’ll have more content for you all soon!
From this shipping ask meme. (From like, a month ago.)
2. “How’s their team work? Do they share well?”
I think that, rather than working ‘as a team’, these two would try and challenge each other. Even on small things. Sans might try to irk Razz by “making things difficult for him” (not to an extreme extent, but more in ways that might set the short-tempered skeleton off, much to Sans’ amusement). And Razz certainly wouldn’t sit by idly and let it happen. He’d do everything in his power to get back at Sans. Sans is a difficult skeleton to figure out, but Razz is very determined, and once he’s able to determine Sans’ peeves, he’d take full advantage of them.
When it comes to sharing, Sans isn’t very fussy. But naturally, this annoys Razz. He sort of thinks that Sans should care that Razz got to choose the movie twice in a row, or that Razz had the last slice of cake, or that Sans offered to sleep on the couch when there was only one bed. Ultimately, they’re both pretty selfless when it comes to trivial things.
3.
“Are they open about their relationship? How do they feel about public displays of affection?”
The short answer? Absolutely not.
To elaborate, neither of them are very accustomed to displaying affection. Razz is especially pent up, and might worry that any kind of feelings for Sans would be a sign of weakness. And Sans is no better. He likes to play himself off as the cool, carefree comedian, but he struggles a little around Razz (partly because Razz throws him off a little, and he often feels like he needs to step in to keep him in check).
As time goes on, they might grow a little more used to each other’s company, and small gestures might become instinctual without them realising it. Still, if either of them catch themselves doing it, they’d immediately stop.
8.
“What do the like best about their partner?”
Razz likes that Sans is a bit of a mystery to him. At first, this aspect of Sans’ personality would definitely teeter him. From a survival perspective, not knowing someone who could potentially be your enemy is a very dangerous thing. But Razz grows to like this. He normally tends to find the Tale ‘verse skeletons boring, but Sans is just the right amount of “creepy” to keep him on his feet – while providing him with some relief from the harsh demeanours of Fell monsters.
As for Sans – at first – nothing. He doesn’t trust Razz. He doesn’t like how unkind and tart he is. He doesn’t like the way Razz walks – that stupid strut and the way he sways his hips as if he’s trying to irritate Sans. Or that stupid smirk of his. Or the way he sounds when he actually laughs (especially when it’s at one of Sans’ jokes, which he certainly doesn’t make just to try and make Razz laugh). Or…
Okay, there are some things Sans likes about Razz. But he’ll never admit them to himself. He might claim that he dates Razz ‘out of spite’. Deep down though, he does see a small part of Razz that he admires. Razz isn’t kind, nor is he generous, or compassionate… or at least, he tries very hard not to be. Sans isn’t normally very competitive, but he almost takes it as a challenge to make Razz – who is normally so cold and stony – laugh. He really likes Razz’s laugh.
23. “How do they hug? Kiss? Tease? Flirt? Comfort?”
As I stated before, displays of affection aren’t really their thing. Their hugs are few and far between, and the ones that they do share are often brief. But… every now and then, Sans can tell that Razz needs a little comfort – and vice versa. In those rare cases, their hugs are long, quiet, and gentle.
Kissing is a bit of a weapon for both of them. Before they start dating, they might try and kiss each other to throw each other off. The novelty of ‘the surprise’ wears off pretty quickly though, and they soon start kissing just because they enjoy it. Razz likes rough kissing, but Sans is the opposite, and he’s pretty good at getting Razz to wind down and take things slowly.
Razz thinks he’s the ultimate tease, but in truth, his flirting isn’t quite up to scratch. He might have a few dirty one-liners ready to throw Sans’ way, but he gets flustered too quickly when Sans throws them right back at him. Sans is a surprisingly smooth flirt, he just seldom brings it out. He’s a master of manipulation, and could have Razz eating out of his palm… if it didn’t take so much effort. Mostly he just compliments Razz’s ass (and it’s enough).
39. “Who initiated the relationship? Who kissed who first? When did they realise they were in love?”
Neither of them really initiated the relationship. It sort of just… happened. If you really had to pick one of them, I’d probably have to say it would be Razz, but perspectives differ.
Razz was extremely persistent. (I sort of wrote a bit of a drabble about this a while ago), but I like to headcanon that Razz asks Sans out as a dare, and Sans goes with it out of spite (and partly because he finds flustered Razz very amusing). And as far as their first kiss goes, neither of them are really sure who initiated it. Once again, it sort of comes out of a dare. Razz is very spiteful, and would never back down from a dare. However, he’d probably get nervous at the last minute and try to back out – but Sans would help him take that final step.
When it comes to love with these two, I don’t think it would be a ‘realisation’. They might quietly admit to to themselves, but it’s unlikely they’d voice it for a very long time. The occasional “I love you” might start slipping into their conversations, but there would never be a “confession” as such.
As I wrote this, I realised that Rottenjoke is sort of the Spicyhoney of Sanscest. Good Ship™. Thank you!
(I just have one more to go now, I’m sorry I’ve taken so long with these!)
