TL;DR - I don't like edgy AUs and think ones that make no sense are funny.

I don't understand most of the AUs out there where Sans and Papyrus suddenly just hate everything and become a "stereotypical teenager", if you will. I don't really like them. (Or from some videos I've seen, where Papyrus becomes addicted to drugs.) Undertale isn't a game about recovered drug addicts who have wasted their lives. It's not about killing everyone just because you felt like it. (Well...) And it isn't about some monsters who act as if they're some sort of tough, ruthess mercenary.

However, I do like AUs where it's just strange or downright silly. For example, everyone is a robot except for Mettaton now. That's just the weird nonsense that appeals to me. Undertale just has that sense of humour anyway, and it just fits right in with more pure nonsense of some AUs.

I think that yes, Undertale has a deep meaning and some more mature content, (Which is unrelated but I'm too lazy to delete that) but that doesn't mean that characters need to be edgy or something like that. Undertale's random sense of humour seems a perfect way to lead into nonsense AUs where everyone is secretly a werewolf. (Tf did that come from?)

Anyway, that's just my opinion.
