#atsy rambles

i quote her to my parents almost on a daily basis (although they don't know i'm quoting her, they just think i have a sudden potassium desire or something) and she makes chapter 2 my favourite chapter so far

speaking of chapters, here's my ranking list

1. C2

2. C4

3. C3

4. C1

none of the chapters are bad or boring, but i placed c3 and c1 at the bottom mainly because c1 feels rather lacklustre compared to the rest and the pacing of c3 makes it rank lower, but i love the story in both

chapter 2 has just always been perfect to me. the amount of comedy involved combined with the actual storytelling and it somehow balancing each other out? HAND IT OVER. plus, acid tunnel scene is in it. what more could i ask for?

i'm VERY excited for chapter 5 as well. knowing asgore is gonna be the main boss fight (his prophecy file name says 'boss3' i think) that means we'll probably be getting more kris lore and i LOVE that! i'd like to know more about their childhood and their relationship with dess and how they used to interact with noelle. AND AND AND knowing we had huge ralsei development last chapter, THATLL PROBABLY CONTINUE INTO C5 AND WE GET TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HIMMM AND WE'LL GET MORE ASGORE LORE AND MAYBE SOME MORE INSIGHT TO WHAT HAPPENED DURING DESS' DISAPPEARANCE AND HSJSJDKFKKFF

Spoilers for the new episode ahead!

spoilers below! i'm not gonna say as much as i want to since im in the car right now so i want to focus on the road as much as possible ugh

so i had a dream that i was watching solarballs and then some ad popped up for a weird cooking game and it turns out they had collabed with this random niche game and absolutely no one was happy about it except me so i just played this game no one had heard of for like an hour

then the dream changed and i was suddenly in my old house and there was a weird fucking deer that kept appearing in the doorway and i had to shut the door in order to make it stop appearing, then i went over to the kitchen to sit on the ominous scary counter where it was really dark and also a bunch of analog horror entity faces kept popping up whenever i went into the kitchen and while it was scary i also just kind of accepted it

i went back on the floor and realised "holy shit am i dreaming" and it turned into a lucid dream where i started making faces appear in mid air but for some reason they all turned into spaghetti of various different colours and i really don't know why but the fucking analog horror faces kept appearing again and turning into spaghetti. since i found that so annoying i just gave up and went to sit down on the couch and genuinely forgot i was lucid dreaming so none of what happens next happened to me willingly

AFTER THAT my good friend mr fish messaged me and we were talking in some strange fancy fonts from an app that i actually downloaded in a previous dream that for some reason continued to this one (said dream being about me installing this app and getting a ton of viruses but not thinking they were real viruses) and whilst we were messaging i began to get the virus popups again and i went onto the app store where there was a discord logo and it said over and over again "YOU HAVE A VIRUS! YOU HAVE A VIRUS! YOU HAVE A VIRUS!" and only then did i start to realise "ok. maybe i do have a virus actually"

this was what the virus looked like

once i realised that i put on solarballs AGAIN on my tv and shouted for my dad who i realised was awake (probably because i also at the same time realised he was awake in real life because he is) then he came in and i was like "dad, i have a virus." and he said "oh. well what do you want me to do about it it's not that big of a deal" and i replied "dude it's a fucking virus this sounds like a big deal"

we got into a bit of an argument about it and remember that deer from earlier? yeah it came back. and it started no clipping through my couch and kept on reversing into me and it wouldn't let me run away and my dad was just really nonchalant about it saying things like "ohh the deer is backing into you what a shame what are we gonna do" and not actually caring at all that this DEER WAS IN THE HOUSE DOING WEIRD THINGS AND HARASSING ME

i finally managed to run away into another room where i sat there for a few seconds before the dream ended
