Has anyone done something like this?

hello Deltaruners

I’m only on chapter one so if these are wildly inaccurate then please don’t publicly execute me

I'm just saying, I was not expecting the answer to "how come Spamton became associated with the concept of Divorce in the Fandom even though there's nothing directly relating to it in his lore and actual game appearance" to be "Tenna took the Divorce with him in the Divorce"

deltarune chapter 6 prediction

SUSIE: Wait, guys, we have something the Knight doesn't... FRIENDSHIP!

(RALSEI majestically transforms into Stool Forme R so that Susie can use him as a pedestal of friendship.)

SUSIE: Bet you can't do THAT, dipshit!! I have friends to stand on!!

(KNIGHT grabs IMAGE_FRIEND from thin air and promptly stands on its head.)

KNIGHT: Dude. I have a friend who IS, like, actually a chair. And it's my friend so much that its NAME is Friend.

SUSIE: ...

SUSIE: (D-damn it, Ralsei... We're gonna lose the aura battle...)

Spamton is simultaneously shipped with so many other characters SPECIFICALLY to say that they got divorced. First Jevil, then Queen, and now Tenna.

Do you guys think that, like, just maybe, Spamton just mightve been dating all of them at once.

Like not in a polyamorous way but in like a cheating way. He pulled ALL THE BAGS when he was a Big Shot and fumbled ALL OF THEM.

Not the biggest Spamton fan myself, but I can just see the vision of Tenna, Queen, and Jevil all standing around comparing what they experienced when they were with him and whatever lies he told them to get away with his ruse for so long.

I also don't ship any of these, but it's just funny to think about because Spamton is like that ex that all the other characters talk about but he's never with anyone during the actual events of the game.

Jevil: What are two talking about, about?

Queen: Oh We're Talking About Our Shared Ex Who Cheated On Us! Look!

*Queen shows Jevil a picture of Spamton*

Jevil: Hey, hey! I was dating him before I was set free, free!

Tenna: Really?

Jevil: Yes, yes! That was before I found out he was cheating on me, cheating on me! What a jerk, jerk!

I seriously need to study how Toby Fox builds characters because I'm uterly amazed at how genuine and beautiful Susie, Ralsei and Kris' friendship feels.

They care so deeply about each other, and they have such a complicated dynamic that it even feels romantic at times? (with them blushing at each other and longing for each other's presence, showing also lots of physical affection) but it's really not, they're just teenagers that are building connections during a traumatic situation where lots of complicated feelings can get involved.

(With this I'm not trying to invalid any of the ships, in fact they all work super well because of this. The fact that Roulz mistakes them as a throuple tells you so much about how their intimate relationship feels from the outside).

At the end of the day, the root of their feelings is loneliness, and how their relationship resolves this. It goes beyond simple siblinghood or romance or friendship, it's so fascinating.

I actually think it’d be so cool if Dess was actually a human as well.

Ik she has the antlers in that one flashback but idk maybe she wore them like Kris did to make them feel less alone?

It's interesting to think that, like... The Dark Sanctuary Dark World in Chapter 4 is the first Dark World we've seen that has no real connection to the theme of 'abandonment'.

Like, Card Kingdom is based on an unused classroom filled with abandoned toys. The entire plotline there revolves around King's anger and resentment at being abandoned by the Lightners and his desire to take revenge.

The computer room that became Cyber World is usually very frequently used, but.... because the Internet is down it's not at the moment. And Queen is driven by the anxiety of being abandoned if this internet shutdown continues, synthesized through her ego in a very "what would the Lightners do without me?" way.

And TV Land is the heaviest on this theme. With Tenna being driven by the grief of falling into disuse due to both technological advancements and the Dreemurr-Holiday Family Unit slow dissolution and the fear that this will get worse and he will be thrown out.

But then in the Dark Sanctuary... The Church is often used by the people of Hometown, this doesn't seem like it's going to change anytime soon and we see no Darkner be anxious about, like, the canceled Choir practice or anything like that. The closest thing we have to a 'leader' in that Dark World is Gerson/the Hammer of Justice, who is clearly a precious and well-loved Monster-Equivalent-of-an-Urn. If anything, his main worry is about him not being there for his Lightner son!

And, like, I said the Hammer of Justice is the closest thing we have to the 'Dark World Leader' slot in the formula seen in the previous three worlds, but that's also not quite the case.... cause he's also the Shadow Crystal Bearer of the same world. If the Hammer is like the Jevil or Spamton of this world, than it doesn't really have a King/Queen/Tenna for itself?

I remember when Chapter 2 came out, I already noticed this 'Abandonment' Pattern and I wondered whatever a Dark World created from objects that are not neglected or abandoned would just be far too.... content to actually have an adventure in it. Like, there would be no one to fight cause all the Darkners would just be chill and happy they're fulfilling their purposes.

And I also wondered if the Dark is, like, attracted to objects which were abandoned or neglected, gives them bigger importance or power in the Dark World. Hence a 'TV Land" instead of a general "Dreemurr House Land", the TV is the most abandoned thing there and so it is granted more focus.

And on that same topic I wondered about the fact Kris deliberately turned on the TV before opening that Dark Fountain. Like they were intentionally trying to aim for a TV Land Dark World.

Obviously the first idea, that non-abandoned Darkners would all just be benign NPCs has been disproved by the Dark Sanctuary, which has it's fair share of enemies to battle. But I think the idea that the Dark gives extra power and importance to things that have been Abandonment might have some merit. Not just with the Dreemurrs' living room being ruled and controlled by their disused old TV but also with the fact there isn't a clearly equivalent to Tenna (or Queen or King) in Dark Sanctuary.

And again, it makes me think of Kris' reasons for turning on the TV... Was it because their plans is to deliberately invoke the prophecy as much as possible and a TV Guy being slashed by the Knight is mentioned so they had to make a TV Guy?

Could they intuit that the Darkner that would be created from the Television would probably be desperate for attention and obsessed with Toriel and thus easier for the Knight to manipulate.... and also maybe that the Abandonment it feels will make it stronger?

(Notable perhaps that they also slightly opened the house's front door before turning on the TV and making a Fountain. In light of the events of Chapter 3, it seems like it was Kris laying a trap to pull Undyne to the Dark World so that the Knight could kidnap her)

Have Kris and/or the Knight have been deliberately seeking out abandoned and disused places that will therefore have stronger 'boss' Darkners that are easier to manipulate towards the Knight's goals?

And if that was the case, why did they stop with the Dark Sanctuary?

Did they just kinda... ran out of obviously abandoned places/things around Hometown?

Was it simply a matter of following the prophecy?

Was it a desperate attempt to re-capture Toriel via the choir practice?

Was the Knight just desperate to open a new Dark Fountain... somewhere and went with the Church as their first opportunity?

Was that pattern I noticed just a coincidence and doesn't actually mean anything?

A lot of things to think about...
