the fan depictions of [whatever incident happened between kris + dess] that interpret it as coercive on dess' part are sooooooo interesting. your brother's cool teenage friend takes an interest in you and leads you into Something Bad. deliberately or accidentally. or maybe she's going through Something Bad and leans on you in a way you can't really understand or fulfill but you try anyway. or maybe you're both going through Something Bad and she says we can't ask for help and you believe her. no matter what happened it's the different levels of agency they have that gets me. they're both kids but one of them is smaller. they're both at risk but one of them thinks she has control of it. and so on. the dynamic has teeth is what i'm saying. there's meat here

I think you gotta make Dess Holiday a little uncool. She can't be too awesome I think she needs to be a little cringe. Just to remind yourself she's a teenage girl who did stupid shit y'know?

more dess holiday being a kind of shitty person who was rude and beat people up and pissed off her friends but everyone cared about her anyway ok. less of dess being a normal, mildly rebellious and whimsical girl whose only role is to be the Cool Older Sister. im no longer asking

flowery should've had a voice clip where he goes "Wing Dings Gaster!" and it gets used exactly once on a line of dialogue completely irrelevant to gaster and nobody acknowledges it and it never gets brought up again
