BACKTAGGING: Oh lord yes, I try to tag back quickly but I'm very flexible and open to backtagging.
THREADHOPPING: Yeah, of course! I'll mark a thread private if it's not open to that.
FOURTH-WALLING: Sans is essentially a fourthwall character, at his core, but not so much outside the fabric of his own universe. So I guess let's talk about it?
OFF-LIMIT TOPICS: I'm easy and can't think of anything that comes to mind, but general rule of thumb: if it makes you wonder if it's okay, maybe ask first. Best judgment, we're all adults!

FLIRTING: By all means try, if your character is into weird bone monsters! He'll flirt right back. Just be comfortable with the fact that he's definitely doing it as a joke.
FIGHTING: Unless your character has done something really, really, really, really awful, I can't see Sans summoning the energy to fight back. Tho fair warning: Sans has a semi-godly ability to dodge. If it's hard to land a hit on him, I promise I'm not trying to godmode you, seriously! You kinda have to take him by surprise.
INJURY: Related to the above... hitting Sans (even just once) with intent to hurt will probably kill him. For the purposes of not making people accidental murderers non-lethal hits without intent to harm will not kill him. Let's just talk it out first, he's fragile!
MINDREADING: Sure! Tho there is a lot there under the surface that Sans will almost never discuss openly and he will be seriously uncomfy to have anyone probing around in there, so let's chat about it first
MAGIC: Sans is made of magic... like literally! He's just a bunch of magic and dust. So any other magic characters, come on down!
IC LIMITS: None that I can think of.
WARNINGS: Sans is kind of depressing, nihilistic, and has a serious apathy problem... but he doesn't have to be, and won't be with most people! If that kind of defeatism stresses you out, just let me know and we can keep it light!
POWERS/ABILITIES: You can see his abilities here inmy application. Please read & reply to the form below to give me an idea your mileage with Sans' abilities!

PERMISSIONS FORM
Okay, so, Sans has a few abilities that hinge on his observational skills of others and a few more associated with his magic. I'd really appreciate it if you could fill out this form for your characters, just so I can know whether to hold back and/or how Sans should read them! For examples of how others have filled out this form in the past, please see the comments on my former permissions post.
Form Guide:
[ OOC ]
Comic Sans?: Sans canonically speaks in comic sans ms, except for when he is being serious and/or threatening. I will handwave this for speaking, but when typing I intend to have him use his usual comic sans. If that's a little eyestrainy or just plain offensively ugly (believe me, i'm a graphic designer, i get it), just lemme know and I can handwave its presence!
[ IC ]
May Sans pick up on your character's LV? If so, what is their LV?: In Undertale, "LV" stands for "Level of Violence" and marks the amount of killing someone has done in their life. However, more accurately, it measures how comfortable a person is killing another person and how detached they feel from the "act" of killing. Sans canonically is very good at picking up on this through observation.
If you're fine with Sans picking up on this, give me a number on a scale of 1-20 for your character! 1 being 'has never killed ever if they did, it would be fairly traumatic' and 20 being 'would feel nothing killing a child if it was in their way/feels nothing about killing in general.'
NOTE: Don't worry if your character is from a video game and may "technically" have a huge kill count due to gameplay that does not match their true relationship with killing -- I'm not here to scold you for ludo-narrative aspects of your canon, just go based on your character's personality!
May Sans teleport your character?: Once Sans gets the layout of a location memorized, he will eventually start teleporting around it. He's capable of teleporting others as well, and objects. He tends to do this fairly abruptly, so lemme know if you're open to him doing this midthread! He'll usually ask, but he tends to do it anyway regardless of the answer.
NOTE: I've discussed this ability with the mods and there are places Sans cannot teleport to and/or magical barriers will block his teleportation from time to time. This is not hard at all for me to justify ICly, but just know that I know how gamebreaky this ability can be and I won't be abusing it!
May Sans magically affect your character?: Unless your character is actively threatening the fabric of the universe, he will almost certainly not attack you. However, Sans has the ability to manipulate gravity on a person -- levitation (that he controls), increased gravity, etc. If you're open to him using that in certain situations, lemme know! Also let me know if your character has an inborn resistance to this.
Any observations Sans can make about your character? Sans was a scientist a long time ago, and takes extremely careful note of his surroundings. As a result, his observation skills are sharp -- right down to reading the amount of times he's killed someone by looking at their face.
For the sake of adding a little fun to my time in game, I like to believe that observational habit extends to the other characters he meats in game. If there anything about your character he'll be able to intuit by sight, please lemme know!
And if for any reason, you would prefer not to have Sans (and by extension, me) keep tabs on your character and record their doings, please let me know! I won't have him "see" anything beyond threads that would realistically be observable to him (such as network threading or public conversations where he is also present), but if even that's too much please don't hesitate to opt out!
