And the places that you know seem like fantasy
There's a light inside your soul
That's still shining in the cold with the truth

Don't forget, I'm with you in the dark

btfo the prophecy by pretending to be a they/them instead of THE GIRL

>>715925294
he's probably going to get increasingly more desperate to keep what he has the closer we get to the prophecy's deadline
i think kris is scared of time moving on, he'll take new things like susie in stride, but actually moving on with life scares the fuck out of him and he wants to go back to how things were like when he was a child

The entirety of Undertale is a Dark World that will be created by Asriel stabbing his own computer with his game design files in a secret post-game cutscene if you've collected all the eggs by the end of chapter 7.

This is ass.

>Dess was living in Carol's house and pretending to be Noelle's sister to be close to her son
>began dating Asriel at some point
>Toriel knew Dess is actually much older than him so she killed her in a fit of rage
>Kris is distancing himself from Noelle because she began to fall in love with him, not knowing he's her cousin

Assuming the player is the ANGEL, and HEAVEN is paradise, then banishing the ANGEL'S HEAVEN would just mean rolling the credits right?
In other words, the world of Deltarune is where we wanna be because it's better than real life. But finishing the game means our paradise is gone (unless we replay of course).
What do my fellow schizos think? I spent 30-45 sec making up this theory.

>>715929601
This made sense before Chapter 4 but the prophecy not censored by Ralsei says that "The Angel, banished, will finally meet with its desire".
So if we are the Angel, our banishment will lead to something we enjoy.

>>715929703
Black Ralsei's portraits are so cute

>>715929812
wonder if we'll get him back in chapter 5. Given his stark similarity to Asriel, I can imagine him not wanting Asgore to see his face.

>>715929601
>Assuming [dumbshit]
The player isn't the Angel. Catty says the prophecy comes from the Angel, iirc. Gaster is the Angel.

>>715930078
There you are. Can you answer me here? >>715928794

Let's talk it out. C'mon. Let's figure out a solution.

We are /pol/ now, actually.

>>715929893
I really really don't think so. It was explicitly stated that his original hat was gone forever.
>* Oh, Prince Ralsei! Look how many hats I've racked up!
>* ... Ah? Your original hat? Oops... I seem to have lost it forever.

>>715930103
Player Angel BTFO.

>>715930160
Well I mean Ralsei's clearly capable of doing a lot more magic than just healing. He probably can just conjure another hat.

greetings fellow nonbinary people

>>715930325
I still don't think we'll ever see him wearing the original hat, otherwise I don't think they would have said it'd been "lost forever". Maybe he could get a different one.

>>715922815
Ralsei is actually Dess' miscarried baby that she tried to dispose of in the bunker

>>715930232
>trusting Catty to accurately retell the story
To be fair though, "time and space" is a bit sus in DR context but also just a generic phrase that's used in plenty of fiction.
Whatever the angel is, it was at least grotesque or shocking in some way to Susie.
It's not a normal looking monster or anything Susie has seen before.

>>715930538
I don't think Catty would make up the Angel making the prophecy. Gaster being the Angel would explain why the picture is fucked up.

>>715930232
>there's one with horns

Told ya, faggots, my man Ralsei isn't gay.

>>715922815
The Knight is Kris' severed hand, wielding Kris' knife. Undyne is in on the whole Knight plot with Kris and Carol, also she made the initial church Dark Worlds using Kris' hand and was the person hiding in the closet at the end of Chapter 4.

>>715930103
>>715930232
>the angel HAS a cool prophecy
>foretold BY TIME AND SPACE
Are you guys ESL? She's saying the prophecy is associated with or attached to or owned by the Angel, but is actually prophesied by "Time and Space" (ie Gaster).
There is no definition of "has" that means "originated from", unlike foretold which is literally what the word means, "prophesied".

This thread gave me the idea of taking a book that is in the public domain and turning it into a Visual Novel using those DAZ Studio models that people use for erotic games...

kris is/ was supposed to be the second hero/ the girl
hits are the requirements, uses swords, wears ribbons, hope crossed (out) on heart, LOVE/ love has found it's way ((you)/ susie)
all that's missing is the explicit conformation of kris being female
there are a couple clues that can hint at it if you squint, like kris being the only one able to wear the delicate princess ribbon gloves, and more more iffy things like the refusal to use the boys shampoo and apparently being unhappy with their clothing choices
it would also tie into kris' identity issues perfectly, and make her feel more like a freak due to having a period in a family where that's not something that happens (goats don't menstruate so toriel is useless here)

>>715922815
Dess is a human girl who was adopted into the Holidays the same way Kris was adopted into the Dreemurrs. She loses her SOUL when she disappears, and that SOUL is what the player uses to play the game.

The correct way would be a single page for the illustrations instead of shoving it mid text

>>715931826
I like the illustrations mid text, it's like in Alice in Wonderland, which is obviously a huge inspiration for Deltarune.

Getting scattered across time and space would certainly make it hard to put you back together again.

>>715931310
>kris lets you do the guitar minigame because dess can play the guitar

>>715932553
>(You) being able to play the guitar easily is because you're playing Dess's song
But that doesn't really hold up, considering Dess was also apparently a piano prodigy as well according to Tenna. So we should've been able to play it fine as well.

>>715932693
>>715932553
You never played the guitar in game. You played the rock video rhythm game.
Even playing the piano is very hard with a controller.

>>715930901
The way Catti used it would imply that the prophecy is associated with the Angel and not that it is owned by it. This is actually very clear in that line, since there is a clear grammatical distinction between two subjects where one "has" the prophecy (the Angel) and the other "foretold" the prophecy (Time and Space).

Regardless, it seems incredible to argue that the player, or at least the Soul, isn't the Angel after the imagery of the Soul getting trapped in the Angel doll and the repeated use of its Light to solve problems in the Dark World. Gaster has never been associated with Light once, and he certainly doesn't light anyone's way, except possibly through us.

>>715922815
the knight is a cat named michael and they were horrifically modified by gaster to become the knight.

>>715932693
When was this said? I'm searching through the transcript and I'm not finding anything
>>715932783
> You played the rock video rhythm game.
A simplification due to the fact you're playing as something that know how to play guitar so it's made easier.

>>715925294
kris is spitefully jealous of asriel's success and made a deal with a psychopath. kris gets to be a big shot and in exchange they help them get into the bunker.

but now kris has real friends and isn't feeling so suicidal anymore, but they're locked into the deal and there's no way out.

>>715920734 (OP)
i love this

>>715933040
>A simplification due to the fact you're playing as something that know how to play guitar so it's made easier.
Doesn't sound consistent at all to me. It is clearly the player who plays in the rock video game, and it's the player who messes around on the piano too (after Kris played the melody properly). Susie even comments on how you suck compared to Kris.

Also I'm not that guy but I don't think it was stated that Dess was a piano prodigy. She probably did play the piano though, and she might have been the one who taught Kris how to play.

>>715933850
imagine how messy their first kiss would be.

>>715925294
>feels guilty about something that happened in childhood
>is helping one or probably two adults do bad things
>made some kind of promise to these adults that they feel the need to hold over him, presumably to ensure his compliance
>but he still agrees with the goal enough to maintain the illusion and even mess with the Soul for his own entertainment
My current theory is that Kris was involved in whatever made Dess get lost (duh) and that the Knight and friends are trying to find her, making Kris suffer by hosting the SOUL mostly because of the Prophecy but also partially out of spite for him "losing" Dess.
This also plays into their violent reactions regarding Noelle in the Weird Route. It's not only rage at how we're treating her, but also their attempt to stop us from turning her into a weapon against the Knight and friends, something that can actually beat them in what may otherwise be an unwinnable, possibly prearranged, battle somewhere down the road.

>>715934146
it would probably barely count as a kiss and look more similar to susie shoving kris' head in her mouth while slobbering all over his face with her tounge (kris is also giving her tongue)

>>715934386
Kris is such a lucky guy

>>715922815
If Dess is Knight, what if she tried to kidnap Toriel not because of the prophecy stuff, but because she has some personal beef to settle with her? We know how protective Toriel was towards Asriel, and from what we've heard from Tenna, I don't think Toriel was happy with Dess being a bad influence on her kids. I can totally see them locking horns constantly.

>>715932947
I do like the far more likely theory of FRIEND being Noelle's fuck up, she made from modding her cat game so hard it went full creepypasta, then after entering her layer of reality, did like Noelle taught it and *PAINFULLY MODIFIED* her sister, or something along those lines. It's just really funny if it's all Noelle's fault.

holy shit i almost never found this thread,

>>715935959
We need better dogwhistles for hiding from jannies

>>715935498
FRIEND isn't from noelle's cat game, that's just where she met him, just like how susie met FRIEND from her evil chair, and kris most likely met it summoning demons. FRIEND is a pervasive evil lurking in the dark.

>>715936206
We aren't entirely certain on the specifics. I like the "chesire cat face that can just apply itself to stuff" idea though.
The circles the "pointed tail" is made of being the same as the style described in Noelle's cat game does make me think it *started* with Noelle fucking with shit, and then it just kind of started persistently haunting the town.
Also Susie's chair doesn't make much sense because it implies her room became a dark world, which I'm doubtful of?
My guess is it was some random piece of Gaster or something that ended up in Noelle's game either because of or causing her connection with weird game glitches, and then she just taught it *very* bad things which it started doing when it "hatched"
But again, we know nothing.

>>715936407
it's not gaster's prophecy though...

>Chapter 4 has you go through a bunch of Sanctuaries
>the song name for the Titan is "GUARDIAN"
>in other words, the final boss for Chapter 4 is a Sanctuary Guardian
TOBYYYYYYYY

>>715937523
Why is it called guardian anyway? What could it be guarding?
Why is it surrounded by angelic wings? Why does it look like a human figure before it is revealed?
Why do the titanspawn look like human fetuses?

>>715937897
Considering Gaster's experiment centers around humans (both Kris and the player), the Titans could be explained as results/byproducts from the earlier experiments Gaster did before he made his DELTARUNE.

>>715938074
This made me have a thought.
>Gaster gets CORED/Humpty Dumpty'd/Whatever
>After being retconned from ever existing ever, finds himself *lost* in "The Dark"
>Unlike what fans suspected, was not suffering in hell for eternity, and has instead just been continuing his science for a timeless eternity in the game equivalent of the backrooms
>Has in fact experimented *so* much that said fucked up experiments fucking *leak* back into realspace through the smallest cracks available
>Overall having a great time otherwise though
I mean, he does seem pretty jovial at all points when we do hear from him. Seems he's having fun.

>>715939036
I wonder if Gaster "falling into his own creation" can be taken metaphorically as well as literally, being so lost in his experiments he lost sight of why he was even doing them in the first place (presumably to help break the Barrier without human SOULs or some shit). Being "lost in the Dark" can also be taken to mean being so lost in the escapism the fantastical Dark Worlds provide that you don't want to come back to the Light World. Susie, Noelle, and Berdly come to this conclusion during Chapter 2 before Ralsei snaps them out of it.

I like the idea that the prophecy just is somehow a part of all media in Deltarune. Obviously Dragon Blazers and Lord of the Hammer, but even other things. Cat Petterz pulls the circle creatures from the prophecy the same way Lord of the Hammer pulls from the chapters of the prophecy.

>>715940430
Most likely Carol's, that's why she is helping her so much.

Let's not die, the other two threads fucking suck.

why does so much fanart have Kris with the red horns
did i miss a dialogue

>>715945046
Canonically, Kris only worse those for "months," but they're a good visual motif. Plus it makes it makes it easier to distinguish Frisk and young Kris if an artist draws them with similar appearance

Kris Dreemurrwitz

>>715945046

It's probably just cause some of it comes from what >>715945185 said and some come from the speculation on whatever the hell his headband is, if we've even seen it yet

>>715945291
You know I think it's kind of fucked up that Toriel looks at Kris going through a serious existential crisis just like 10 years before. A crisis of questioning if he even belongs in their house. If his parents even love him. If he'll ever fit in with everyone he knows. And Toriel is giggling about it like, "Wow you were such a fucking stupid kid!"

>>715945558
How can one man be so autistic and based at the same time?

>>715948643
Yep, I just found some more Russian artists by checking VK.

>The Angel has a prophecy foretold by time and space.
Very clear to me the Angel is the one behind the foretold prophecy. Accusations of being "ESL" doesn't really matter when you're retarded enough to use the Angel Doll NOELLE made as proof for your retarded theory. The only evidence is the player light, and even so, if you believe Gaster is the one behind SAVING, he's also associated with light.

Is this related to deltarune other than the name?

Bump. Any thoughts on what Asgore will do in Chapter 5? On what his flowers will become in the Dark World?

Kris is nonbinary btw

>>715966594
Wrong!

>>715966405
In chapter 1 we see a barricaded door in his back door. I'm wondering if it's something like his very own Dark World that he falls back to whenever life's shit. Maybe an overspill of that Dark World onto the entirety of Flower King, whether caused by Asgore himself or a third party, could be the focus of the Fifth chapter.

Other thread got force-archived the moment people started shit talking Suselle. The conspiracy theorists may be right about the true motivation for the janny's endless tantrum

>>715968484

>Other thread was archived.
Thankfully, we still have this bunker. Dead bunker, but still.

>>715968484

Wtf Janny's based for once?????

>>715968731
Isn't that interaction for his basement that's accesible from the side of his building?

>>715968890
The perspective is kind of fucked in the flower shop, but I'm pretty sure the stairs lead you down into the basement, and that there isn't actually a second floor. The blocked room would just be another part of the basement.

>>715968484
I still believe the flowers will mirror the dead kids and be the actual main bosses, not Asgore.

>>715959032
Kris got what he wanted but not HOW he wanted it; Noelle's attention, affection and company. Instead he got some creepy sado-maso couple doing blood sports.

There's another lesson here alongside "no one can choose who they are in this world", and that is "no one can shape chance and opportunity"

After beating Deltarune you will have the opportunity to complete The Gauntlet and play as Drizz't

>>715959032
Ah yes, she's definitely talking JUST to Kris and not to (You) as well.

>>715969813
Wrong, I FULLY enjoyed and the Mantle knows. She's talking to Kris here trying to get under his skin.
