named another smile to connect to other menacing grins like kris, eram, friend, the TV, and such, being seen as antagonistic.
1. the holy trinity. deltarune has many parallels to the bible. the god being toby, the son being the puppet master (ill explain why later), and the holy spirit as the soul, the angel. this makes me think gaster is a conplete seperate entity that is unintended by toby, that is probably just watching to gain information for now, maybe they'll do smt later but for now gaster is an observer.
2. The main antagonist will shift from the knight to another existing character or a new threat. i believe this puppet will actually be a main antagonist ALONG with someone else.
3. The ARG question stating: "How long did it take for her to smile?". most people ASSUME its noelle, but i think it is carol. as we should all notice by now, toby tends to make something incorrect as an obvious theory and people are NOT learning. i believe it is carol and i will explain later.
4. I believe dess and asriel will appear chapter 5. tobys writing style makes him reveal major things much earlier that expected, such as knight in chapter 3, then the main villian shifts to someone other than the knight.
5. I believe the knight is the Vessel. the vessel wants their soul back (betrayal is great motivation, also take flowey for example. missing soul, becomes antagonistic bc they want freedom and control over themselves, a new soul.) Kris gets their freedom and lives normal again, and carol is in this, because i think she is actively finding dess thru kris and noelle, through the snowgrave, which may be connected to how dess became lost, because as we can see noelle is losing grip on herself. carol believes that if noelle does the same, noelle can lead her to dess. which adds on to my carol being the ARG question. Carol probably loved dess, but when noelle was born dess changed, and focused more on noelle rather than carol, and this is why carol hates noelle, so shes using her to be happy again. the 16 years theory for the arg could be reframed to mean that carol hasnt truly smiled since noelle was born.
6. also puppet master is the guy thats controlling or manipulating spamton and jevil.
7. "proceeds from the Father and the Son." proceeding. proceeding can mean creation from nothing, like how carol is creating her own path to dess with breaking the game. snowgrave is also an anagram for wrong save.
8. More proof for gaster just being an outside experiment and observing. the eggs are placed by gaster, which is not intended. when you interact with the egg, there is an issue bc gaster isnt supposed to exist exactly.
9. carol saying this: "My apologies about just now, Kris. As you know, YOU are welcome here any time." carol isnt helping kris to help kris, she is using kris to have the soul. she is welcoming the soul for her purposes rather than killing it, which is more proof that carol knows about dark worlds and such, and using YOU for your snowgrave. kris probably knows this but goes along anyways bc its a win-win.
10. The vessel, like flowey, lacks a soul. So they do what flowy does, twisted atrocities, not out of malice but in an attempt to feel something, as they lack souls. more proof for why they work toghether.
11. Based on the ARG, we figured out that noelle is around 16 years old. that makes sense bc noelle is in high school.
12. Carols office is described as have AC on full blast, and since dess vanished, the family felt like they were buried in freezing snow. Snowgrave isnt just a spell, moreso a representation of the accumulated family trauma. Carol using noelles snowgrave is carol trying to recreate that, to recreate the perfect enviroment to open a way to dess.
13. In the Goner Maker, The character speaks all caps like gaster. the vessel was gasters experiment, but was hijacked by presumably the son (puppet master), rather than toby, because its describe that the son is the one who carries out the actions of god.
