Okay I don't know if you understand
I don't watch trailers or promos so I don't spoil myself - so going into ATSV I had NO IDEA who spiderpunk was
And the whole time I'm watching this I'm going along with Miles likes 'yeah who the FUCK is this Hobie he can't be all that'
Could you IMAGINE my reaction when he started speaking. A BRIT?? And then he took off his mask???
AND HE'S BLACK?!! AND HOT?!!!
could you imagine my face in that theatre when he winked at miles. my brain restructured every one of my neurons in that moment

Someone read the first, like, 15 chapters of my fic today and left a few hate comments about Remus' characterization (they didn't like how much of a pushover he was, or that he felt bad for being mean while in a pain flare up at one point lmao) and Sirius' characterization (he was too stuck up and self absorbed)
They then edited each their comments to add even more hate (one edit was just adding "daaaaaammmmnnnnnn" after a rant about Sirius being a douchebag)
And then, apparently, they realized that leaving hate comments on an author's fic because you disagree with the characterization is a really shitty thing to do, and they deleted all the comments.

My attempt at rationalising who the rare pair could be:
The characters must follow at least one of the following criteria-
Very little presence in game, likely not extending beyond a scene or two in person.
Has a more common ship, or the characters they are shipped with are more commonly found shipped together.
Very little external presence, either in merch or fanworks.
The characters likely have to have some crucial information either "hidden" (e.g Alphys crushing on Asgore being... concerningly not know about) or revealed after the main burst of Undertales popularity.
And from this, I have gathered my closest guesses as to who it could be.
Mad Mew Mew X Asgore:
Maddie was revealed in the switch port, long after the initial spike of popularity.
She was revealed to be crushing on Asgore in Deltarune, a fairly hidden piece of dialogue that lacks her face, matching the above criteria.
Most commonly shipped with Undyne + Alphys (OT3 fr)
To most players, only appears in YouTube playthroughs and has no merch of her ( I think?)
Asgore has little to no merch, owing to his reveal at the end of the game.
Only really shows up in one scene (two if you count Neutral Fight and True Pacifist ending as different scenes)
Has more common ships, like with Toriel (Asgore, I love you but you gotta let it go man) and Gaster ig (Kingdings is a fire ship I'm ngl)
Do I need to go into how little the fanbase acknowledges this man's existence?
Do I honestly think that people are shipping Maddie and Asgore enough for a whole two fics to be made?
I wish No, no I do not.
Is It still fun to think about this logically?
Yes.
Does it make more sense to be Alphys X Asgore with the given criteria?
Yes, but I Stan maddie too much for her to not get this chance.
... I'll be damned, that does only have two fics. BUT. 1) saying this with all the love in the world do you really think I'd care enough about asgore for this kind of thing 2) they are both fics by my good friend tali and i know for a FACT their writing kicks ass. so I'd never say anything negative about em
in conclusion: nice try. but you can try all the combinations you want... i never said there were only 2 characters

I think I accidentally inflicted some sort of psychological terrorism onto a friend of mine lmao. Basically, she's a full on atheist, but she still heavily dislikes demonic imagery due to religious trauma.
Anyway, she came across some Amazon Prime advertisement for Hazbin Hotel and she suddenly got very spooked by the sight of Alastor. Not just because she genuinely finds his design terrifying, but rather because he looked so eerily familiar. So she starts panicking about why the fuck this spooky cartoon demon from a show she's never seen before seems so familiar to her, wondering if he's some kind of remnant left by religious introduction haunting her from the depths of her psyche until she finally realised that she knew Alastor because he's my god damn WhatsApp profile pic.
