I think there is a certain Tragedy that Gerson was the exact teacher Susie needed most when she arrived in town, but just had to pass away before they could meet.
Throughout the chapter, Gerson is shown to see Susie for who she is and, most importantly, fully accept her for it. While Toriel and Rudy do act respectfully and nice to Susie, there is a degree in which Toriel's opinion of her is painted by Alphys (Toriel knows from Alphys that Susie has a bad rap and her dialogue with Kris at the end of Chapter 2, when Susie is off-screen, suggest she doesn't fully trust susie as a result). Meanwhile, as nice as Rudy is, the same problem with Noelle applies here, he is extremely limited how supportive he can be when he is trapped in a hospital bed.
Not Gerson. He isn't just respectful of Susie, he is encouraging of her He joins her and helps her. He laughs with her. He endorses her brand of antics and comments he finds kids who are not afraid of causing chaos and trouble more agreeable than "nice kids" who always seem to do as they are told.
And if he had not passed away, as Alvin says, he would have been Kris' and Susie's teacher.

susie's story (esp in ch4) is so deftly realised. so often you see the "character who thinks little of themself is encouraged to pursue their True Value" storyline unfold in a way that has the character redirected away from "unfitting" desires, like a physically weak character who wants to be physically strong learning to value their personality instead or whatever but susie. susie who is - mechanically, in her stats in the game - best suited to hitting things with an axe, who "doesn't look like she should be playing the piano", is encouraged to pursue a skill she doesn't have because an educator took the time to get to know her and realise what she has genuine passion for. and she's not automatically great at it! she has objectively bad spelling and grammar in her letter to alvin, it's not like she unlocked some secret hidden talent - storytelling and communicating and creative expression in general is something she cares a lot about and genuinely enjoys, but it's something she has to work for. there's a reason why the gerson fight is so long and gruelling. but through this hard work and better understanding of herself we see susie learn how to reject imposed frameworks that occlude her actual personality - she literally shatters the tapestry that tells her the one and only way her story can end, and in doing so prevents Kris from ever having the chance to think of her in that position, whatever it is. it's her story, and she's learning how to tell it.
AND all of this is done without for even a second implying she needs to be even the tiniest bit more feminine than her rough and rude masculine self. hell, from the way she and gerson mirror each other in their loud and abrasive laughs, her unapologetic butchness is presented as a trait that aligns her closer with him and from there with her truest self

I could NEVER be one of those ppl complaining about the classic undertale characters being “irrelevant” in deltarune. I find the way deltarune highlights each of their flaws through their much more mundane lives so fascinating

So far in LA an Australian news reporter has been shot in the leg by a rubber bullet, a British reporter has been shot by a sponge bullet and sent to the hospital for emergency surgery. A NY Post reporter has been shot in the head with a rubber bullet and went to the hospital for a large bruise on his forehead, whiplash and neck pain, and CNN reporters were handcuffed and escorted away being told to not come back or they will be arrested BECAUSE they are reporters.
It seems like all reporters there to give the real story are being targeted by police/ICE/military in LA.

Here's an idea for a fanfic, for those who can write.
Jaune (Arc), Rabbit-Faun.
Semblance: "Rabbit Hole" — Allows to open dimensional wormholes to and from his own dimension, which appears as a large room or box. However, Jaune's Semblance does not allow one to hold onto living people for long if they resist. When resisting, the aura is used up faster, which is how Goodwitch got out. Jaune named his Semblance "Rabbit Hole" after the White Rabbit, one of the characters from the fairy tale "The Girl Who Fell Through the World".
I couldn't decide what weapon he would have. I have 3 options: 1. Chains. 2. Two short but wide swords. 3. Gloves and boots with gravity dust.
Jaune's fighting style: Both close and long range. Close range is preferred due to his physiological advantages and Semblance.
While his mother's beast trait was rabbit ears, Jaune gained a rabbit tail in addition to his natural speed and agility. From his father, in addition to his Aura reserves, he inherited a potentially powerful physique, blue eyes, and blond hair.
______________________________________
The council of the great Arc family, who adhere to the tradition of pure (human) blood, decided to exile Jaune due to the fact that he was born a Faunus, after his irresponsible father left the family due to disagreements. At the time of his exile, Jaune was 8 years old, his Aura was unlocked and, due to his bloodline, the volume was huge, as in canon. Jaune unlocked his Semblance when he started stealing food on the streets of Vale, where Roman Torchwick noticed him, noticing the boy's potential, the redhead took him in. Jaune spent 7 years in Torchwick's gang, training under the guidance of Neo, who infuriated him with her attitude.
Yes, he participated in Roman's affairs, being a living transporter, transporting both people and objects in his Semblance, but he did it only out of a sense of duty. A couple of years later, on that very mission with the White Fang at the docks, confronting teams RWBY and JNPR (J - Jeanne Arc, who is a couple of days older than Jaune. Her Semblance is based on plants, she creates them from Aura and these are mainly vines), as well as Goodwitch, who was the main threat to Roman. Jaune prevented the huntress from destroying the Bullheads with the rest of the gang and Roman with Neo, sending her to his dimension, allowing Torchwick and the others to leave, thus repaying the gang for saving him in the past.

Cursed at birth to reject all healing magic, you were never given the luxury of injury and no party accepted you to join. So you trained harder, fought smarter, dodged everything. You couldn’t afford a single mistake. Now, they whisper your name in awe and fear—the Untouchable.

Star Wars really said "Anakin Skywalker had issues rooted in childhood trauma that was not his fault" but also "Anakin made his own choices as an adult for which he alone is responsible" but ALSO "In spite of the truly evil things he chose to do Anakin was still capable of being loved and redeemed" and I think that's important.
