So I took a shower today.
Which by now you should have realized is code for "I went on a fucking long ass rant."
Tokay's rant was a theory about how in Undertale you don't ever actually play as Frisk until after you beat BEST OC Asriel. No matter which route you take, you're actually playing as Chara in Frisk's body. Chara isn't the narrator, Frisk is. Frisk either didn't have a colored soul which means that Chara's spirit overrode it and made it red, giving Chara control from the start, or Frisk died from the impact and it was actually Chara's determination that brought Frisk back but only as a spirit. So then in the end of Pacifist Chara either returns control and Frisk's soul goes back to colorless or Chara gives Frisk their soul to replace the one that was shattered upon death.
I need to replay Undertale a bit to be able to confirm if this is even possible because the mirror plays a HUGE part in this. The same mirror that made everyone believe that Chara's the narrator.
I also got it in my head that I should name Chara "Toby" and then do genocide 100 times in a row and hopefully he'll have some code in there that detects it and has the dog show up and be like "So I see you really like the genocide route... And under my name, too. Are you trying to tell me something?" because then I'd fucking save a video of that and tweet it and a LONG rant at Toby Fox about how yes I'm fucking trying to tell him something I'm trying to tell him that I'm pissed that you can't save Asriel and Chara in the Pacifist route and that Toby made a world where Chara got fucked over so badly by his best friend and so I'm going to repeatedly destroy this world he's made under his fucking name until I've destroyed every single instance of said world so that there is no longer any world where Chara gets so royally fucked over by Asriel and THAT is my goddamn DETERMINATION you fuck.
Because seriously, Asriel is the cause of literally every bad thing that happens in Undertale. Not Flowey, not Best OC Asriel, Asriel with a soul as a child. He is literally the cause of EVERY SINGLE BAD THING in Undertale.
Reference list of how bad he fucked over Chara, to hopefully help me remember my rant if needed:
- Asriel agrees with Chara's plan, knowing full well that it would result in the deaths of at least six humans
- Chara sacrificed themself to free the underground and get revenge for whatever made them hate humans
- Asriel takes Chara's body to have it buried where Chara had wanted and as an excuse to collect the souls to break the barrier
- Asriel does not take six human souls
- Asriel does not let Chara do the one thing they want most other than freeing the monsters
- Asriel does not bury Chara where they wanted to be buried
- Asriel does not defend himself from the humans
- Asriel returns to the underground on the verge of death and still with Chara's body
- Asriel dies, resulting in his parents splitting up over Asgore's new policy on humans
- Asriel dies, causing Chara's soul to shatter to pieces so it can't even become the first of seven to break the barrier
- Asriel calls Chara a bad person after Chara at least forced Frisk to save him and possibly literally gave their existence in order to save him
This little fuck is responsible for every single bad thing in Undertale, and Chara STILL forgives him unless the player and Frisk actively make Chara lose their mind and become so hateful towards monsters instead of just humans that they stop caring about Asriel at all.
Chara literally would have prevented all the shit that happened if Asriel had just let them fucking do what they both planned to do in the first place.
