Ralpunzel part 4: “You can always rely on a friendly me… to make you free!”

What if their eyes reflect their Soul?

(I've run this poll twice before, expanding it significantly for the second run. With about a year passed since that second run, I thought it was time to add another couple hundred names to the list and have another go.)

please reblog to get this poll out of my bubble, i want reach

This JUST occured to me, and could be nothing, but in examining the Dess Red Soul theory while replaying the game, I can't help but overthink everything. It is an aobsrvable trend that flavor text changes in tone chapter by chapter. It's like chapter 1 is trying to trick players into thinking they are Kris, until they break out, and then as the chapters go on, the flavor text gains more and more personality and distance from kris. Compare the examining mirror lines, from "It's only you" in chapter 1, all the way to chapter 5, where the flavor text narration asks who the person in the mirror even is. My addition/observation to this is... What if, instead of the proposed years of Kris+Dess alliance until we take control of the soul... Dess was *silent*. Kris had a new soul, but not a new personality/voice? It served to keep them alive but there simply was no Dess? It would add to Kris avoiding Noelle and self-isolating, not because it's Dess controlling Kris, but Kris guilty because she is gone and they blame themselves, and it's entirely them choosing it. What if Dess's voice coming back is part of this processes, even key to Dess's revival? If our leveling up, our getting stronger, is somehow repairing Dess's soul, giving her life and restoring her voice, with the goal of returning her soul into her body stored somewhere else, like in the shelter? This could open up new permutations of knight theories, like the knight being similar to a messed-up duskner, but for a human corpse that craved being a deer monster, not just a dead monster revived by someone who did not know them, like the old man statue. The extra tagedy here, then, is that perhaps just as we cannot hear Kris, they cannot hear Dess's narration to us, so they don't know how the plan is progressing, if at all; She is coming to life to us but cannot talk to Kris? I dunno. This idea provides me an important amount of motive for Carol and Kris to not only have the red soul around, with us in control, but to let us explore dark worlds and get stronger. That's been missing in a LOT of theories and the overal analysis of the narrative; why, is this allowed to happen? Why are we being presented obstacles to clear if our opposition is the ones setting up the obstacles? If our guidance is bringing Dess's soul back to life that gives me a better sense of motive for just about everything. But as the person who introduced me to this idea, maybe even came up with it, what do you think, @shattered-cage ?

Lastly this bit about an “amputation of the mind” could connect to the Dess hand trauma stuff we keep running into. Could explain why Dess says “i'll never play again” and also messes up the piano in ch4. however, this brings into question why Kris can still play guitar in ch3 if dess is the one allowing them to do so; is Dess simply 'back' enough by that point to carry us through the minigame? Could this just be a literal red herring? The USB mic at the computer in Chapter Five Asriel used for webchatting with Dess is clearly from Rock Band, and the Tenna minigame is adjacent to that. Tenna mentioning Dess and the song being Desspilled as shit and the Player/SOUL playing 'Guitar' specifically sure as shit makes it seem like Dess's skill is carrying us through, but it could just be that Kris is cracked at Guitar Hero lmao

In case my message got muddled by the confusing way I go off on tangents and then forget my original point XD I absolutely agree we are not Dess. The player is a new entity, brought in by Gaster, to take control of the soul, and puppet Kris as a result. I was suggesting that unlike the proposed "Kris and Dess had a good relationship until Dess was unexpectedly wiped and replaced with us", my own proposal is basically "Kris was largely in control of themselves, acting 'normal' enough to avoid notice, until chapter 1 begins and for the first time, is puppeted by another consiousness in the Soul. Dess *is* in there but has been waking up due to the progression of our efforts/level, appearing as flavor text narrator" Let's augment this post with, as I've thought about it since, two possabilities that make enough sense to be. Let's call them A and B. Leadup to both senarios: Kris is a human, Dess is a human. Both raised in hometown, both weird and rebellious, and as neighbors and the adopted children of adults who are freinds, become fast friends themselves. Obviously Dess and Asriel had their own relationship (which might not have been romantic both sides, IDK if love letters in a drawer mean they were explicitly dating or that Dess returned or even knew about his feelings, but that's not the subject matter here) and Noelle... was there. Fanon likes to interpet it that Kris and Noelle *were* close as kids, and they only iced them out post-events, but TBH noelle not remembering Kris *ever* complimenting her in their lives, combined with her inability to determine if her and Kris are friends, to me doesn't read "we were loving friends until DA ACCIDENT" it tells me things weren't simple. Kris is a little weirdo and even if *they* were fond of Noelle in their own way, I'm not sure Noelle ever took all that pranking as friendship. As she says, they were the neighbor. Even her dad calls them, the weird kid next door. IM GOING ON A TANGENT AGAIN In both senarios, Dess and Kris, alongside an unknown amount of people, at the very least Catti, participated in a demon summoning, during which Catti lost her nerve and fled, which if it's the event that set things off... good call. This is not GARENTEED to be the un-Dessening but it's the best assumtion we got. A demon summoning, maybe the presence of FRIEND or Gaster or Dark Papyrus, whatever it was... the point is, the unkown incidident which may or may not involve the creation of a dark world, the first known apperance of the knight or another such entity that has these abilities (I take stock in Ralsei the living prophecy's confusion at the notion that the Knight is not a new presence. Ralsei knows puzzle solutions and gags by heart before they encounter them, there's a good chance in my mind the source of the black shard that day, and the Knight we know now, might not be the exact same entity.) All of this to say what we KNOW is shakey and what we ASSUME might not be right but anyway... on to the senarios. IDK if it's Tumblr as a whole or just my PC but I can't type as long of posts as other people? it glitches out. Senario A in a reblog.

You seem hung up on a narrow understanding of the word 'boss' and find the idea that Gerson is akin to characters like Tenna and Queen to be a new notion you are bringing up, when... The outlier Ruler is King. King is the only ruler who has not considered themselves aligned with at least one lightner, and while yes Gerson doesn't turn and attack the party due to a misunderstanding or personal anxiety, he *is* a secret boss fight? Like how split of hairs are you looking for, and why is your perception that this isn't... Obvious information?

Obsessed with Kris looking at the camera and doing a mario peace sign when confronted with the fact they flirt with everyone. Gotta win...

Noelle it’s been five minutes are you serious 😭😭😭

This sentence is what you put on a trap to spesifically catch me. I've never seen a sentence so compactly hit so many of my interests in 17 words/Acronyms. Also those Miis look GREAT. Susie in particular is impressive to me, as is Sans. I suck with the draw tools.
