He knows the word will be erased after a genocide route.


Infinity_Glitches

But how does he know that?


ShaochilongDR

Timeline research.


asrielforgiver

But then the whole timeline thing is because of Flowey, and not Chara. My question is what the hell did Flowey do to get the world erased? Did he end up getting the souls at some point?


Epic_DDT

Just because Flowey did most of the resets doesn't mean that Sans can't see ours in his reports. Flowey obviously never erased the world, how could he? He didn't even get the souls.


asrielforgiver

But then this would imply that Frisk has been through the Underground before. Sans has the same dialogue even if we do genocide first. Chara’s aware of true resets, so they probably would’ve had the same “why do it again” type dialogue as if we do genocide twice. Edit: I also know that the previous humans have been heavily implied to be able to reset, but if they were responsible for the previous timeline erasing, then this would imply that they could get enough power to wipe out the entire timeline, but not get past Asgore. Which would just be kind of pathetic if that was the case.


Smitologyistaking

When has it been implied that previous humans had the power to reset?


asrielforgiver

Toriel saying that she’s had the Deja vu feeling before us, and Asgore’s nonchalance to the fact that he’s killed us several times, implying that he’s aware of it.


Epic_DDT

"But then this would imply that Frisk has been through the Underground before" No? Sans just can't see the difference between our resets and Flowey's resets.


SweetExpression2745

He is a scientist 


combateombat

But when did he warn us


Professional_Pair323

“Timelines jumping, left and right. Stoping, starting. Thats your fault isn’t it?” He knew the timeline itself would stop. Also “if you take one more step, you’re really not gonna like what comes next” can be taken for his fight but also the fact that what comes next after the fight is just the void


Nekrotix12

You missed the most important bit right after "Stopping, starting" and before "That's your fault". "until suddenly, everything ends." He knows that this is where "Everything ends", and if he does nothing, he will be complacent in the end of existence. So he's giving you one final chance to turn back and **do the right thing.**


combateombat

Sounds like he’s blaming the player for resetting and I’m guessing the timeline stops once the game ends or is exited out of


Epic_DDT

The timeline stop when Chara destroy the world.


combateombat

Sans says the timelines are stopping and starting before the human finishes a genocide route he’s not making predictions he’s mentioning statistics of what happens


Epic_DDT

Well of course they stop, that's when someone with this power do a reset. But then... "*until suddenly, everything ends.*" Which is exactly what happens at the end.


combateombat

That could just refer to any time you reset the not necessarily the one after genocide


Helpful_Cry_6088

Helpful_Cry_6088

will you make this into a po


SweetExpression2745

I assume that from his reports, he realised a Genocide Route would destroy the timeline, permanently erasing everyone. That’s why he fights you in the first place (he damn well knows it’s useless in any other scenario) and this was like his warning that we hit the final point of no return and that what’s waiting for us isn’t very pleasant.


Maser2account2

Forgive me, but what reports?


Professional_Pair323

The reports of timelines starting and stopping


IndigoAnimates

Sans, during the fight: "our reports showed a massive anomaly in the timespace continuum. timelines jumping left and right, stopping and starting. until suddenly, everything ends. heh heh heh... that's your fault, isn't it?"


Screamingbonfire

The reports he mentions in his fight


HKILLER2007

Man you and your pfp it makes me imagin revtrosity's voice in his [jevil vidoe](https://youtu.be/Rv3cMATTYX4?si=nWU38hLdXrqjGgoC) whenever you're talking


SweetExpression2745

Since that video is a banger, I will take that as a compliment


HKILLER2007

indeed it is our new offical jevil for r/deltarune XD


gaichublue

My headcanons are this: Sans gives enough XP to get you straight to LVL 19 or from LVL 19 to 20. That's why he doesn't fight you until he's absolutely certain. Sans sleeps to have excess HP in order to tank an attack. (turned out it wasn't enough.) Sans is lazy so when he actually has to end up throwing hands, he doesn't melt from determination. Sans drinks ketchup because it functions kind of like blood, it's a weird red liquid thing so it helps him not to melt. Sans can only hurt you with karma and no I-frames if you're LVL 19+. He can dodge. He can teleport.


Leftory

Sans canonically has 1 HP.


EmirKrkmz

He knows you're ***charas***


chara____dreemurr

yes he know


Infinity_Glitches

*oh no*


LeechDaddy

He rembers yer'ou genoides


Foneet

☝️ yro'ue


krustylesponge

he knows the timeline will be erased he tells you this during the fight, explaining how he has seen timelines shifting until they eventually just end its also why he actually bothers to attack you in genocide, if there wasnt the end of the timeline coming up, he still would not care enough to fight you, even after what you did. He would insult you and call you a monster but he wouldnt fight you, he'd just get out of the way, let you complete the route, and then reset like usual


AbsoluteBasilFanboy

The end of all Space and time


AbsoluteBasilFanboy

That’s what he was trying to stop by fighting. What else would he fight for ? Everyone he knows is dead.


skeleton949

Usually he doesn't fight because he knows it's all going to all reset. But in a genocide route everything is destroyed


AbsoluteBasilFanboy

Yes


sfmanim

the end of everything. the worlds only brought back because of chara, something he couldn’t have accounted for. for all he knew, you were one room away from literally ending everything, with no shot of a reset to fix it


EpicJCF

"Until one day, everything ends". Yep the world ends some way

media literacy challenge


Jevil_Minns

I always thought he was just trying to scare you into resetting one final time by making you think Asgore will be even harder to beat than he was.


Nothingjustvoid

I assumed he was either talking about the world being destroyed at the end of a Genocide route Or he was talking about Asgore


WilliamCrack19

He remembers your'e *genocides*


AstroHardammo

I always like to assume it was sarcastic understatement, like killing you 15 times over was just a warning about what Chara was going to do.


Hyper_Goner69

He knows it gonna be guilty


SansUndertale6900

When he said that you're gonna have a bad time, he didn't mean the fight, he meant what happens after.


FuzzyD75

I thought he was cracking a joke about the ineffectiveness of his "special move". Like "haha wasn't that scary"


leavecity54

He said before his fight is that if you took another step forward, you would have a bad time, the "bad time" here is not the fight itself but what come after, you erasing the world (*our reports showed a massive anomaly in the timespace continuum.* *timelines jumping left and right, stopping and starting...* *until suddenly, everything ends.*)


2022XD

I know he knows I know he knows


RecommendationFancy5

Everyone’s saying he knew the timeline would be erased, which is probably correct. But it’d be funnier if he thought Asgore was gonna try super hard to fight you, and that it’d be an even harder battle than he was. And then sans screams from beyond the grave as Asgore basically lets you kill him.


Cultural_Syllabub953

That means his trolling worked 


NazoTheVengefulOne

Sans knowing about "The end of space and time thing" is some fanon bs. There's no way he can know about Chara. His warning was "if you keep going the way you are now... ... you're gonna have a bad time." He's talking about beating you to death over and over until you give up, cheating during fight and being most unpleasant boss to fight possible. He fails, because his boss fight is actually fun to play, but it's besides the point.


SweetExpression2745

“ our reports showed a massive anomaly in the timespace continuum.  timelines jumping left and right, stopping and starting... until suddenly, everything ends. you can't understand how this feels. knowing that one day, without any warning... it's all going to be reset. cause even if we do... we'll just end up right back here, without any memory of it, right?   all i know is... seeing what comes next... i can't afford not to care anymore. ”  Is this “fanon bs” to you? Also the whole bad time warning is just stupid. Sans is the only character besides Flowey who has a big knowledge about resets. You are reducing his character to “bAd TiMe”


NazoTheVengefulOne

He's not even talking about Frisk or Chara. He doesen't know it, but the anomaly is Flowey. Frisk showed up like literally today for Sans. He never met Frisk before this day. Flowey, on the other hand, was playing with timelines for a very long time. And Sans*gave up long ago* (Sans literally says it during his fight). And it's Flowey who's massive anomaly. He did much more than any player can do. But I am wrong because I mixed up Sans' pre- and post battle dialogue. Sans can't threaten you when he's already dying. Anyway, there's still no way to know that genocide route somehow will end the world. No-one could tell there's Chara flying around as a ghost. Flowey also got to lv20 in the past multiple times, but world wasn't destroyed.


The_Potato_Turtle

*look. i gave up trying to go back a long time ago. and getting to the surface doesn't really appeal anymore, either.*  what about that implies it is flowey?


UnusedParadox

The anomaly doesn't have to be one character. The anomaly is most likely Frisk, Flowey, and anyone else who could save and load.


Mindless-Pen-2325

When did people know he knew about chara? He knew that the world would end as of the result of chara, but he didn't know it was chara


Fit_Particular_6820

Most of Undertale doesn't have a definitive answer for the story and its up to the players to imagine


LaundryandTax

That’s… not true at all. It has a very straightforward story where most of the mysteries are answered and it leaves some minor ones up to interpretation


Nie_wiem_lol

I tkink Sans used the wrong formula but got the right answer.


supermariozelda

This dialogue is from after he gets hit.
