Summary
“Mr Montgomery...” you try again, taking a brave step forwards into the room, only to freeze in your tracks when a guttural growl travels through the darkness and cuts straight into your chest like the roll of approaching thunder.
“The Hell're you doin' in here, lady?”
Isn't that the million-dollar question.

Summary
The premise is as old and used as the dirty old rag you’d find squished behind the pipes under the kitchen sink. But it’s been on my mind since I first read “The Soldier and the Carnal Skeletons” by Writers_War_Z0ne and others inspired by their work. It’s occupied me so much, in fact, that I decided I’d like to take a crack at it.
You're the plucky Reader/Protagonist. There's an island. There are skeletons. Shenanigans ensue.

Summary
Underneath the glowing eyes, a great maw opened to hiss at you, baring several rows of needle-like fangs, wicked looking and sharp and also glowing in the blacklight. As the thing hissed, the cries started up again, more frantic this time, and accompanied by- it almost sounded like scratching?
And it was coming from behind you.
The bleeding creature had never been the one wailing.

Summary
'What you're looking at is...
Well, quite frankly, it's impossible.There's a face hanging above you, Lovecraftian in proportion – taller and wider than you are long, with features about as adjacent to a human's as one could possibly get.
For the first few seconds, you remain frozen to your spot, unblinking, half expecting the grinning visage to fade away as sobriety takes you back into its safe, sense-making embrace.
A pair of milky, white eyes peer down at you, hanging in the expanse of yellowing skin, like twin pools of alabaster paint. You'd hesitate to even call them eyes, but then, the damn things b l i n k.'

Summary
In Book 2: The Skeleton Crew, we see our Reader break out of her shell and accept that she is Soulmate to three complicated skele-boys. The boys must learn to share. We’ll find out what happened to Skull all those years ago and why Sans isn’t happy about it. We’ll eat Nice Creams and watch Mettaton and stage a little bit of a prison break.
This is the second story in a series. You could start here… but honestly, you’re going to miss out on a lot of backstory and world-building to our gang of four, Reader, Sans, Red and Skull. I’m going to do my best to fill things in where I can, but it would be better to start with Saving Three Ex-Cell-ent Skeletons.
