SUNSESTART

We’re doing exactly the same thing we did with Chara. We’re making Noelle stronger.

In Asriel’s letter, he says, “If everything gets high enough, you become invincible. Nothing can hurt you anymore. Nothing can hurt anyone anymore.”

And from Chara themselves, “We eradicated the enemy, and became strong.”

That’s the conclusion Chara came to when we dragged them along the path of genocide.

And, it’s EXACTLY the same one Noelle is coming to herself.

The main difference (at least, narratively) is that we didn’t get to see Chara’s progression from apprehensive, to slight enjoyment, to participation, and finally taking the lead themselves at the end.

We are obv in the same position as before, but it’s far more.. eh, intimate, I guess you could say?

I believe this is intentional on Toby’s part, to make no mistake that it is US who is doing this. WE are leading Noelle along this path, just like we did with Chara.

And while they stayed confined to Undertale, we erased that pointless world, and moved on to the next.

PARALLELS, PEOPLE! PARALLELSSSSSSS

We are going to see Noelle’s transformation, unlike Chara.

Just like them, she’ll come to the same conclusion.

I would NOT BE THIS PAPYRUS-BRAINED if he was just your regular background character since chapter 1 or 2

BUT THEY KEEP TEASING US WITH HIM

I keep getting more and more excited about WHY they hide him and WHY all these references to him exist

I've also noticed them, but have been too lazy to compile them and I keep forgetting some of them cause they're like, subtle things

⚠️BIG FAT SPOILER WARNING FOR CHAPTER 5⚠️

Flowery is a thousand percent trying to invoke the image of Rudy.

His smiling sprite and hairstyle are similar (though the hair is going in the opposite direction)

Claims to be Asgore's college roommate and best friend, a role that is VERY Rudy-specific

Calls him Gorey, something which we know Rudy called him from Asgore quoting him in the undertale alarm clock dialogue

And generally has the same body shape, a thing which i found most apparent viewing their sprites from the back.
