We don’t expect this update to come anytime soon, but I’d like to see it happen before ATLANTALE 2018, if we’re lucky.

Remember, we’re still looking for a Grillby voice actor, you can apply here if you think you have the golden voice: https://www.castingcall.club/projects/underfell-55688907-df98-48e8-bb22-c32fab93dc16

~4~ The Loving Human’s Help

It was a failure from the start, he knew this. But still, he couldn’t handle the disappointment swelling inside him. With a dark chuckle he said, “I warned you this might fail. So determined to get back to your deranged skeletons when it was their fault you all died.”

The butterflies flew about, angry, confused, afraid. The possession of the bodies had been a failure. One of the bodies had shifted ever so slightly before a soul flew to the ground, too tired to try and get back up.

He growled and walked back to his blueprints and notes, shoulders trembling. “Why didn’t it work?!” He all but shouted. Not long after, Frisk came in, gently wrapping his arms around G in an attempt to calm him. “What’s troubling you, love?” At this point, she knew what he was striving towards. She supported him the whole time, even if she couldn’t see the souls, even if he warned her of the futility.

G felt himself slowly calm down and at the same time tense up. “I was right; they can’t possess the suits. The first to try exhausted her soul immediately. They don’t have enough strength or determination to take over the bodies.”

Frisk frowned, looking down in thought, all the while impulsively rubbing his shoulders. He couldn’t deny; her hands felt like heaven.

She felt like heaven.

After a moment of silence, she asked, “Would extracting any of my DT help?” G immediately turned around, gripping her wrists and glaring down at her a little too harshly. “Are you mad?! I refuse to use you for anything more than helping to find a cure! I will not utilize your precious DT for a pathetic project such as this!”

Harsh, again. Frisk flinched a little, nodding as she exhaled. “That’s okay. It was just a suggestion.” G visibly relaxed, his grip loosening as he brought one of her wrists to his teeth, clinking her skin gently.

“I use you far too much,” he whispered. “I won’t use you for this.” For a moment, he’d melted. For a moment, she saw Him. It faded quickly, as she expected, and he let her go, turning around and looking back at his blueprints. “There must be something I’m missing,” he muttered.

She sighed and smiled at him. Frisk was used to this, but she didn’t love him any less. She then looked at the bodies. ‘Incredible,’ was the only word that came to mind. She approached them, caressing a face that looked just like hers. Delicate, sweet, but so lifeless, unlike her so. She wondered what would happen if one of them became possessed.

She then glanced at the last one, the fourth. It was different from her. Chara was the female, she was told. It was mighty uncomfortable for him to make that one; it was easy to tell.

It was even harder to approach Papyrus about it. G refused to let him know of why he needed to see pictures of Chara, but Papyrus seemed pretty laid back, if not a tad suspicious of G’s approach.

But it was worth it. She too, was finished, and just as beautiful, if a little more rugged than the rest. It was weird, knowing that others like her were dead. They were haunting her lover, begging for an unlikely second chance. To be so determined to see their soulmates and daughters again-

Frisk’s eyes widened in realization. “Honey,” she started, “I have an idea.” She turned to find he was staring at her with a mix of interest and love.

Oh how it made her heart flutter.

She blushed but continued, “I was right about the DT extract, but I was wrong.” She placed a hand over her heart. “You said they don’t have enough to determination, right? They seemed to only manifest because of their daughters, at least that’s what they told you.” Frisk frowned. “So if Mercy and Kindness are what manifested them, brought them back, then maybe their daughters could assist with bringing them back.”

G frowned, looking thoughtful. “But there’s no way to extract from them, especially because of their fathers.”

“But,” Frisk said, looking a little more excited, “maybe if their daughters were cheering them on, giving them their own confidence and determination in spirit, maybe that in itself would help them to possess the bodies.”

G blinked his one eye several times in silence before he burst into crazed-like laughter, suddenly yanking his soulmate close, placing his bandaged forehead on hers ever so gently. “That idea is insane. But it just might work,” he muttered.

Frisk blushed, holding his boney hands in hers. “I wonder where I got it from,” she teased. He chuckled, beaming in something close to happiness.

“You really are my Soulmate.”

What is Determination?

Sounds weird but I bring you a theory that might be something you’ve never wondered before. It’s something I’ve been researching for a while and I had assumed things that were only farfetched theories until now… I think I’ve figured it out for the most part and I can actually call this a theory.

So… first you gotta ask yourself, does red mean DETERMINATION? It is true that it never defines red as determination, however it is heavily implied by all the times you save and die and it sends a message “You’re filled with determination”. But never once in the game it colors the word “Determination” with red. In the genocide route when we save after killing all monster in the area it says determination colored in red, but since this route is when chara is more active while interacting with all all the words said by them are colored red so that’s not something I felt I could use as a solid proof to say “yes red means determination”

This question led me to research for a line in game where the other souls are mentioned, how do we know the other colors like orange and blue for example, mean bravery and integrity? So I was remembered of the small ball game at snowdin, that’s where the answer’s gotta be.

To my surprise, only after winning every single one of the flags we get this message

This is where we can confirm what eacch color means. But… where’s the red?

This is the only message that we get after the definition of each trait

“Ball game”?? Determination is not a ball… much less a game… right?

Now… why exactly is that colored in red? What does it represent?

Going back a little, when you first encounter this ball game, when you approach the hole it gives us this message:

So now we have HOLE colored in red.

The reason of why it took me so long to realize what this meant, is because you have to think outside the box to figure it out in a way it made sense. And then the answer clicked insids my brain.

What if the combination of all traits, is what makes determination?

The text is implying that once the game is won, only then you can “win” the ball game and get the RED text. But you can only win the game by getting all other traits first. As the text mentions:

“Using these you were able to win at ‘Ball Game’ ” having the words “Ball game” colored in red.

Now let’s apply this in game.

The first time we play, we all mostly got a neutral ending, wether we screwed up the begining by killing a single frogit since we thought this was a normal rpg (like I did…) or by just not getting all the “dates” with papyrus, alphys and undyne.

Tecchnically the neutral ending is made to leave us, as players, unsatisfied, we want a better ending because we know monsters deserved better, we want them to be free, so we look for a way to make that happen.

Through our journey in the underground we make friends and have unforgettable experiences with monsters, ssometimes we get a neutral ending because we were kind but lacked integrity. Maybe we befriended everyons in our oath but forgot to persevere and missed alphys’ date… but… only, and ONLY after achieving all these dates and only after befriending everyone is that we can truly “win the game” getting our beloved pacifist ending.

Only after being patient with toriel at the start, only after being kind to the people we meet, only after being brave against undyne, only after having the inyegrity to spare flowey’ life after everything he did to us, we persevered through the underground trying to find a true ending something that we might have misses to give monsters the freedom they deserve because that’s what we think is FAIR, we want to bring them justice.

Only after all that we manage to face asriel dreemurr who is literally infinite times more powerful than us, and through our determination (both frisk’s and chara’s) we manage to get our pacifist ending.

This is where I was singing victory, like “YES I FIGURED IT OUT” but then I thought if this is supossed to represent the game and is supossed to imply that by getting all the traits in that we get determination… then what’s up with the genocide route…

There’s nothinng kind, or fair, or brave about the genocide route… so… how can determination be a combination of all traits.

This is where I was stuck for a long time, but I kept my theory and assuming I was right, if I was in the right track, I was clearly missing something. I just had to found what was it… and then I found it.

The FIRST time you get the red flag you get the rainbow text, as shown above, it defines that by gathering all traits you get determination and won the game.

But what happens when you get the RED flag a SECOND time… something different appears:

It doesn’t say like.. “DETERMINATION” in red with a definition. Of course, we already stated that determination was a combination of all traits, so what does this mean? And why only after the second time we get the rainbow text does it change?…

Well, this is the game’s way to represent our “true nature” we are, sadly, very curious, and usually after doing a pacifist route, we go to make a genocide one, or not only a genocide route but we go and experiment with the game, killing whatever quantity we feel like, getting to the end with a certain amount of LV to get a different line of text, we lose all consideration for the characters and just see them as a way to get a different line of text, not as our friends, but as tools.

So… this is where my speculation became theory:

Determination is both, a combination of all traits and the mere desire of being determined enough to get as many “red flags” or “endings” as possible so we can see all different lines of text we continue to being ourselves but not in a good way, we simply reveal our curious nature and desire for more.

Determination can be used for good or evil, but both count as determination wether it’s used to revive once and again and again only to get a different ending, or to refuse death and survive an attack with infinite stats. Though I have to say, the good kind of determination sounds more powerful to me.

Sure we get determination for the smallest littlest things but the TRUE determination that will allow us to make the impossible possible, is gained by either gathering all traits, or just having the desire of keep going forwards not taking into account your intentions

If there’s one thing I like more than skeletons besides magical girls, it’s talking about the morality of said skeletons.

So here’s the Morality Meter. It’s based off of these 5 things:

Willingness to kill 

Willingness to harm others

Enjoyment of killing

Enjoyment of harming others

Overall scumbaggery

Also, sorry if I missed your favorite AU, I just did the ones that are important to me.

Except for Dream!Sans and Nightmare!Sans. I like them, but I’M MAD AT THEM FOR WASTING A PERFECTLY GOOD OPPORTUNITY OF MAKING IT DREAM!PAPYRUS AND NIGHTMARE!SANS! I mean, I can’t be the only one that thinks this? Like, an optimistic brother and a pessimistic brother? Why exclude Papy, my guy, and just make two Sans? Sans is too popular smh.

Oh also forgot Murder!Sans, just stick him somewhere inbetween SF!Gaster and Error!Sans.
