I'M BACK BITCHES

Brown “Grizzly” Bear at the Woodland Park Zoo

- The way the attacks slow down as Undyne fades away  - Your soul is GREEN during the entirety of Undyne’s fall - This means you’re shielding yourself from her attacks, not avoiding them - This means also means you’re not allowed to flee the battle (a mechanic that is mentioned at the start of the fight + solidly established by the Pacifist fight) - Her keeping your soul green, despite any damage she sustains, is also a  testament to her willpower to fight/hinder you as long as she can - She fades away, even when you stop fighting. This implies that her death would’ve been inevitable either way, but by keeping you green, Toby is MAKING you watch and face the consequences of the fight. - In the True Lab, it was established monsters with too much determination melt… and we actually get to see the process of that happening, first-hand. That’s a level of continuity I can admire and appreciate.
