☄ First Impressions

♚ VISUAL: It's Sans.
♚ DEMEANOUR: Sans acts incredibly lazy. He slouches, his clothes are a mess, and he doesn't seem to put effort into anything except maybe bad jokes. He gives off the impression of being a total lazybones.
♚ SOUND: Here he is.
♚ SCENT: Smells like ketchup and bones.
♚ MENTAL INFORMATION: Sans doesn't have mental shielding, but he's very observant, and if he gets any idea that you're poking around in his head he's going to be upset and stay away from you. If your character is going to read his mind, just let me know so I can tell you more of his thoughts.
♚ MAGICAL INFORMATION: As a monster, Sans is made of magic (and bones). He feels a lot more magically powerful than you'd probably expect, considering his attitude...

☄ OOC

♚ BACKTAGGING: I'm fine with this unless it gets really old. If it's not plot-important I might drop it, but you can always ask me and we can work out OOCly how things would have ended.
♚ THREADHOPPING: This is fine with me as long as the post is open and it's okay with whoever I'm threading with and whoever made the initial post, if that happens to be a different, third person. You can always threadhop on open posts I make!
♚ FOURTHWALLING: In general being like "I think you're a video game character" is fine. I don't want people knowing Sans's life specifically, though, because being secretive is kind of his thing.
♚ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Sans isn't really a touchy-feely guy, though he might allow a hug under certain circumstances. He feels more round than a skeleton has any right to be, incidentally, unless you push hard enough, and then it's just hugging a skeleton and it's weird and also rude?
♚ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Okay, so--if you intend to hurt him and hit him even once, Sans will die. He's only got one hit point. If you're not intending to actually hurt him--if you accidentally knock him over or if you're just play fighting or something--then he'll be okay, albeit maybe a bit bruised up (metaphorically...), and doing something like that is fine! But Sans is very aware of his limitations and he does not want to fight you or get hit by you, because for all his issues, he doesn't want to turn to dust.

If you attack Sans and he isn't upset, he's going to dodge. This is usually done via teleportation, though he's quicker on his feet than you'd suspect. If this is just a sudden, random fight, having him dodge everything will be necessary to keep him alive--I'm not trying to make your character seem weak. He'll try to disengage, either by calming the other character down or just by leaving.

If you and Sans are in a serious fight, Sans will aim to ruin you as quickly as possible. He will attack with as much overwhelming force as he is capable of as fast as he is capable of it, he will dodge as much as he can, and he will cheat in any way he can think of. He isn't here to play fair, he's here to get this over with. The chances of your character getting Sans this upset are extraordinarily slim.

If you want to kill Sans, please talk it over with me first. I'm not against it, but I like to know how that sort of thing is going to work out ahead of time. As a monster, Sans turns to dust when killed.
♚ RELATIONSHIPS: Extremely unlikely. Sans isn't in the right headspace for it without further development that could very well never happen, so don't expect anything. He won't recoil in horror from flirting or anything, just don't expect him to take it seriously.
