Times up on page 95!

This isn’t a video game!

The comic is back with page 82, and it is the next day after Chara asked Asriel for a favor...

Given that there is very little information, we don’t exactly have a theory, but we do have a speculation. You can check it out here.

The reblogs are appreciated! :)

Chara consumed the buttercups.

Research did go into this. Buttercup poisoning is rare since they taste acrid and blister the mouth, deterring consumption. Just the same, even small quantities are extremely poisonous, and symptoms progress as such:

Stage 1 (within 1 hour)

Irritation and blistering of the skin Ulceration of the mouth and digestive track

Stage 2 (after 4 hours)

Gastrointestinal damage: nausea, vomiting, bloody diarrhea Kidney damage Confusion, dizziness, and headaches Breathing difficulty, coughing Paralysis

Stage 3 (within 24 hours)

Convulsions Asphyxiation and circulatory failure Death

Page 82 depicts the last stage of this awful poisoning. Since most of the damage of buttercup poisoning is internal, it was important to show the effects of the damage in an external way. Sunken, dark eyes and skin so pale the veins are visible shows dehydration and low blood circulation. The lips and nose are inflamed because of contact dermatitis. While a full body rash was not explicitly stated on the toxicology reports, I opted to include it because buttercups are a severe skin irritant, and ingested plants that cause a histamine reaction usually cause rash outbreaks all over the body.

Yes. There actually is an account of a man drinking a juice made of buttercups and dying the next day. It’s mentioned in our post regarding how long Chara was ill.

It was very important to us that Chara not look peaceful on their death bed. After all, poisoning is a horrible way to die and an awful thing to witness. 

Here, Chara’s skin is even paler than normal, and the circles around their eyes include not just purple, but yellow and red as well. The red rash on their skin helps emphasize that pale complexion, which is pushed to the limit with the veins showing through their skin, giving Chara the appearance of being nearly transparent. 

Chara and Asriel arrive at the scene of a terrible accident on page 78! It seems someone did not make it...

Chara isn’t running towards the explosion site. They are heading for another part of the lab.

Of course, they remember Dr. Gaster! After all, who can forget such irreplaceable genius?

In all seriousness, there is nothing in the game that states Gaster was forgotten by everyone. The fact that Asgore took so long to hire a new Royal Scientist and the followers speak about Gaster is pretty strong evidence that Gaster is remembered. No one else mentions Gaster in the game, but there really is no reason to, is there? His existence isn’t pivotal to Undertale. Yes, he did create the Core, but that is extraneous information -- it does not forward the plot. His inclusion in the game is simply an easter egg.

Chara has been getting a lot of hate lately, so I think it’s high time we post some of the love! (And some love for Asriel too.)

We call that look Ruins Chic~

Knaifu waifu.

Maybe you’re attracted to DANGER

I’m not sure which page this is referring too, but Chara’s last-panel expressions are usually a bit foreboding!

Chara would be thrilled by this answer. Someone finally prioritizing Chara over the new kid!

Chara absolutely would look at you like that, you just have to get that pesky body out of the way...

wait how’d this get in here

This counts as love, right?

Phew, we almost had to direct you to the other blog.

There was one thing many people commented on from page 66: Asgore’s beard!
