The storytelling is so damn good that we’ve forgotten to ask how Kris came to live here in the first place. No one, not even Susie at her meanest, has said a word against them about being human or a freak or not belonging. Monsters are so much better people than humans

dess is the knight. here's why

so, i keep seeing people arguing and being unsure who/what the knight is. lots of people saying that it's carol, or that it's actually none of the holidays and is just connected to them somehow. meanwhile i'm 99.99999999% certain it is in fact DESS. and you know what bumped my certainty levels up from like 75% to that 99.99999999%? gerson.

the dark world was able to use his dust to revive him for a time. he was perfectly himself, and he was in this sort of... limbo state of being a darkner and a lightner. but his funeral rites were followed correctly, minus actually burying his urn. so let's ask ourselves: what happens when the funeral rites aren't followed correctly?

what if they CAN'T be? what if the death is so sudden and horrible and her dust is lost? ... what if a fraction of her dust attaches itself to an object that does not correctly resonate with her soul? what if that's all that you have left of her? this incongruent amalgamation of her-but-not-her? do you throw the object away? no, that's your daughter. your childhood best friend. you're going to cling to the little bit you still have of her and try to bring the rest of her back. let the world end if it must; she's more important.

knight carol immediately falls apart for me for two big reasons, and one is simply that this is not what a lightner would look like in the dark world.

this is a lost, twisted being. this is the other side of the scale gerson was on, of near-simultaneously being a lightner and a darkner.

the other reason i can't buy into knight carol is that the knight was already waiting for susie and kris in the dark world while carol was at home grounding noelle. can the woman teleport? exist in two places at once? no. it's just not her.

anyway, plotholes in knight carol theory aside, there are SO many visual clues that the knight is at least a fraction of dess. if you weren't paying close attention - and good chance you weren't because you had bullets to dodge - you might have interpreted the knight's sword as just a sword. and then later, in noelle's house, you run into carol's katana and it's like, woah wait a SWORD?! that is intentional misdirection. the knight's sword is not a Sword. it's a bat.

here i have a handy and very painstakingly detailed chart just for you

real life + in-game katana vs the knight's "sword" vs real life bats. note the bottom of the knight's sword jutting out in one direction and how the real life black bat does the same thing.

katanas are also not wielded with one hand. the correct posture is with two

now, look how the knight swings her "sword":

if you manage to "win" the fight in chapter three, susie attacks the knight head-on, and chips the sword

and, oh, huh would you look at that-

interesting coincidence. also, the knight turns into a baseball-looking ball multiple times

one more thing. this stained glass window design in the church. it's dess standing below the titan she now shares a body silhouette with

(pardon the shaky outlines i refuse to turn on my tablet right now but hopefully that helps you see what i'm talking about if you couldn't at first)

and this isn't even getting into how dess's song is incorporated into the knight's battle theme. we finally met our girl, guys. it's her

Hearing “Hopes and Dreams” when I first played Undertale in 2019 was the first time in a long time that I felt - like, way down deep in my chest, really felt - that if I tried to be a good person and do the right thing, then things might actually turn out okay. The jury’s still out on that, but that feeling is a gift I’ve very rarely experienced before, and I don’t think I’ll ever forget it.

figured i would post this here too….. Love this dialogue so much. Top 1 transgender protagonists

my fave writing reminder

honestly, this phrase has been on my mind more times than i can count. i've kidnapped it, taken it as a hostage with no ransom money because i need it to live permanently in my head.

[ikustioa]

The story will be done by the end of the month, I say not out of brazen ADHD overconfidence but because it’s 70% written already

Chapter 39 of 40

We're almost there, folks

Taken almost a full year later. Shoebill still don’t care

My elbow still hurts. The second cortisone shot caused far more pain than it alleviated. Womp womp, mfer

Hi. I have a condition called “golfer’s elbow,” which sounds comfortably old-Caucasian-dude but is in fact an inflammation caused by overuse. This is putting a serious crimp in my writing because it hurts and I can’t just power through it or I will hurt myself further. More on this story as it develops

The shoebill has no relevance. His refusal to look at me or my boyfriend less than three feet away simply amused me

This is very very good

Hullo dear Fellow Fictional Man Enjoyers. Remember this post where I talked about making a poetry film?

Well uh... here is the link!! I just posted it on youtube. I am unceremoniously dropping it at your feet like a dog showing you something its been carrying around all day

This is a very personal project I've been working on pretty hard for quite a while. I'd mega appreciate any interaction on it, comments or likes, anything at all! Even just clicking on it helps, the views go toward my grade. I'd also be eternally grateful for any reblogs on this post 🙏

Thank you very much everyone ❤️ now back to posting about guys that make me feel unwell

What’s the fun of playing pretend if you’re not going to be silly

I humbly beg the forgiveness of all Sans fangirls and guys I completely understand why you’re in love with him, he’s a wonderful character but you have to admit some of the hyper-sexualized fanart out there is pretty hilarious considering his canon depiction is that of a fat little ketchup-swilling turd DEFINE IRONY: BY CREATING THIS PARODY OF SINNING, I HAD TO SIN IN THE PROCESS LOOK AT THAT LEWD DRAWING every day I drift further from god’s light

Frisk is having a very long day

Yeahhh I wasn't kidding this time

Here's chapter 38 already, brought to you by Ikky Is Going To Finish Something For Once In Her Goddamn Life

[ikustioa]

The last three chapters are like 70% written in total already

I’m leaving the epilogue for a bit bc it is last and also a tearjerker

But it’s going to be a separate little thing, not the last chapter of the story, which keeps my promise of a happy ending

Chapter 37

Here it is
