Kinlist I made a few months ago for some reason. I don't think I for real "kin" anyone in the way some people mean that, but I do currently related and feel connected to Dave and Terezi much more than these other characters. Really Rose should be on here too but it seemed excessive to have three characters from the same story on my arbitrary 3x3 grid. Harrow is basically part-Rose anyway, given the obvious inspirations. It's not organized in terms of any priority aside from trying to make a nice looking image. From the top left:

K. Roth Binew from The Living Wake

Gideon Nav from The Locked Tomb

Dave Strider from Homestuck

Nanami Kiryuu from Revolutionary Girl Utena

Terezi Pyrope from Homestuck

Mo from Dykes to Watch Out For

Rei Ayanami from Neon Genesis Evangelion

Harrowhark Nonagesimus from The Locked Tomb

Kipper from Kipper the Dog

Tried to pull from things that I liked during different periods of my life for variety. I remember when I was first making this I had Yuki Takeya from School Live! but I replaced her with Kipper because I felt I should represent something significant from when I was a little kid. Also I made this before I watched this movie, but if I remade this now I'd probably put Jacob Maker from Wax or The Discovery of Television Among the Bees on here somewhere.

I dunno if this has enough to do with the themes or whatever. I just do think that the game going harder with the incest implications of Noelle seeming to like Susie because she shares traits with Dess also might imply that all the uncomfortable shippy choices the game gives you for Kris and Ralsei are also something you are eventually gonna be guided towards feeling gross about in retrospect. And that works better if Ralsei is more concretely Literally Asriel, rather than some manifestation of Kris's own desire to be more monster-like. Also I guess per Undertale that would imply Asriel being really powerful since he'd be a monster with a human soul. Perhaps this explains how he seemed to be super popular in high school despite being described as a wimp? Being 1/6 of the power of his hyperdeath form it merely made him somewhat hotter and more confident. Don't listen to me.
