Yummy!! Marshmallows!!

but i think this scene with orange hints at it, too. ralsei is pretty mean to orange and even tries to rope susie in on it, and i think this is because they're carrying this same mindset over into their conversation with her.

So she joins a group of flowers, afraid that they'll reject her because she isn't a "real" flower. Just a ghost of a Lightner living a half-life, putting on pretty pink clothes so she can look like the flowers.

But contrary to her fears, the flowers happily embrace her. Despite everything, she's a flower to them. They're all happy she's there! Even if she wasn't born a flower, she's a flower to them.

Mancountry. The pizza deodorant. Watching your dad do bonding activities that are for "the pals" and "the boys" only. The way the weird route puts Kris into the role of Groom in an abusive partnership, bestowing a ring onto their childhood friend in a white dress.

It doesn't invalidate the character, or anyone else, to pick up that there are gendered expectations placed onto them - even if it's not explicitly said by another character, there's a spectre in the air around all of those things. And that spectre is coercive gendering!

* Armour that doesn't fit you

* Commendations you neither want nor need

* Your transfem friend, forced into a closet.

blue genuinely has so much nuance to him, man. he all but confirms that he doesn't believe in flowery's ideology, but plays his role anyway as a show of love for asgore. he's the one to explain how the petal items work in the pink coin room saying that they know we should have them, and he also says hes okay with dancing for his own sake even is asgore won't see it, and he's the one to heal flowery and kris, and also he is down bad for the cowboy and i love this for him.

say nothing of how he gives us the indicting ribbon and makes us go on trial. my interpretation of this is that he understands we were not malicious in tricking yellow, and also wants to present us with the idea that not all misdeeds are born of malice while also making yellow feel better by letting him be a cowboy finding justice. for integrity, he really has a lot of goddamn ulterior motives!

I stand by my statement that Cutie Mew Mew Magic is the greatest song ever
