So overall, Bestie and I are so excited to share our world with you! We really hope you enjoy the ride!

The WCU is all about finding hope, light, and love in the midst of darkness and strife through the support of family and friends. The ultimate message: you are never alone.

Rest assured, though: as much darkness as there is throughout the WCU, the majority of the time, things always end okay, or at least with hope.

I want my works to be as accessible as possible, so I plan to list all the major content warnings at the beginning of every fic necessary, along with more specific CWs at the beginning of chapters where it’s needed.

Now BIG warning: the original Walls dealt with heavy topics such as abuse, sexual assault, and mental health issues, among other things. Though nothing is overly graphic, some of the events planned throughout the WCU are pretty rough.

After that, Bestie officially became a co-writer and illustrator, and together we developed the extended universe surrounding the story of Papyrus and Mettaton. While there’s still a large focus on those two, others will get to shine too.

I had taken to telling one of my besties (who will be referred to as Bestie for the foreseeable future) all my ideas for the new Walls. At one point I joked about adding an OC of theirs to the universe… and it ended up becoming reality.

Around mid-late 2022 I had some new ideas that I really wanted to implement but couldn’t do so because I was too far into the story, and I was also unhappy with some of my earlier creative decisions. So that was when I decided on a rewrite.

Some background: Technically the WCU started with my (Jess) fanfic The Walls Around Our Hearts, originally intended to be a fluffy Papyton slow burn and that ended up as the angstiest and longest (the final outline had 192 chapters) Papyton story in existence.

What is the WCU? Simply put, it’s an expansion of the classic Undertale universe—stories about what happens after True Pacifist, along with backstories (and maybe even some alternate timelines!).

Meanwhile, my main account is @papyton.bsky.social. My DMs are open if you want to talk to me privately for any reason.

Anyway, I hope you all are doing well. With any luck, good things are coming for all of us!

The amount of stress I’m currently under is very bad for the creative juices—big shock, I know. But hopefully at some point soon we will be able to pick back up with illustrations and eventually new chapters for "responsibility."

They are still working on the WCU with me, but they will remain anonymous from this point forward.

Beyond that, I know it's been a while since we last posted anything. I (Jess) have gone back to school and am still working part time.
