@calmdad should probably enjoy reading this! :>
I love how gentle Goat Dad is. Like, everybody knows sees it... Monsters love Asgore for just how involved he is in keeping everyone happy! He tries so hard... Even.. when youâre getting ready to meet him? Youâre so scared and stuff? And you expect this big hulking scary monster to try to kill you? ... You see Asgore and he instantly throws that image of him off...
He sees you, speeks gently, and then frowns, taking a sudden step back... he doesnât want to hurt you.... He doesnât want to do any of this.... It is his flaws that makes him âcarry out his dutyâ to harvest your soul.. and thatâs a shame... but, this flaw comes from Asgore caring about everyone so deeply. He doesnât want to hurt you or hurt anyone... He just wants everybody to be happy and he doesnât know what to do....
I love that... when you go to fight him.. he tries to comfort you.. âJust think of it as going to the dentistâ... because youâre a kid, and dentist appointments nobody wants to, but you have to do it anyway... and this is how he feels about it, but he tries to put it in perspective for you because... well, itâs just as equally fair for you as ... itâs fair for you to want to kill him.
I love that he destroys the mercy button. Not out of malace but... actually out of his own care for you and for all his people. He will not allow you to try to talk him out of this. Heâd rather you kill him..
Thatâs.. some resolve there...
which makes sense seeing as heâs caused harm to all these other humans.. It makes sense to me that...he doesnât want mercy.
I love Asgore. Asgore is so important. He just wants everyone to be happy and.. thatâs.. important he just.. got really caught up in his own flaws and... I love Asgore. Asgore is as deserving of my love as everyone else.
