I'm trying to FOCUS but he just has to be a CUTIEPIE IN THE CORNER OF MY PAGE. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

Sometimes you just gotta 🦐 in a chair, put on the Creep Cast playlist, and make your phone catch on fire from drawing too many prompts that speak to you. Such is the way of the worm. This is a lovely place ❤️

(if anyone wants the original prompt image for any of these, feel free to ask)

Her post about the egg started blowing my mind for completely different reasons, but THIS one in particular took me down a smaller path of follow-the-bouncing-vaugepost moments in game.

I always thought it was weird that Spamton got away with partnering up with a darkner from a completely different world. Aside from that, they really should be incompatible. A CRT and a spam email??? Regularless of romance or business, they have a connection. And that connection might be symbolized in that pipis.

(There's someone else that connects with Kris and the proof of the connection happening is the egg, something that is universal. But that's another man's treasure)

I do think the combo of Spamton and Tenna together was a threat to something. Them being punished for it so a connection could never happen again? I think that's very plausible.

It's also interesting that Tenna hid the pipis. Whether out of embarrassment or not, he did keep it even if it's something he's ashamed of. As far as I'm aware, he only leaves it if Spamton is presumably dead/frozen. The connection, though faint, is severed. There's no point.

After the encounter where Spamton doesn't pop up to reconnect, he takes it to hide it again, so the connection does still matter. Obviously. He's still moping about Spamton in the Mike room in chapter 5.

The animosity seems to be what's in their way now, and if they were cosmically punished for making a connection that something deemed dangerous or problematic, then yeah. Making them misunderstand what happened, blaming eachother, wanting each other dead. That's the way to instill the message. They can never be reunited.

Who done it? I don't know. Most people would probably say Gaster, but the old man seems pretty chill about choices and making new futures. Someone else, on the other hand, likes telling us who we are, and they can take over Gaster's handiwork. Someone else really likes the weird route, the red eyes flickering like pretty little flames. Someone else had a very conveniently damaged and clearly controlled puppet that facilitated the path of ice magic. He's not allowed to talk about the Knight. He's not allowed to say ***something***. He's always talking about pain and death. He quotes taking a vacation to hell which is only said by Burger Pants under specific circumstances...

It's probably nothing

There's nothing wrong

There's nothing WRONG

He needs to bring enough for the whole class

📺 :... Huh... Reminded me of little Azzy...

I didn't do the weird route, but I did get all the eggs..... Am I still cooked??? TFYM ITS EVIDENCE FOR SOMETHING I'LL FIND OUT LATER!? (cue the "I'm so scared" meme)

(In all seriousness, keep the theories coming. The more perspective, the more chances of finding any foreshadowing Toby left us that we've misunderstood or overlooked until now. Lookin at you Noelle page about the weird white egg that has a name she forgot and it left because of happiness)

Puppets beware

Oh yes~

I was replaying chapter five and made sure to do EVERYTHING before leaving Castletown and I was actually quite stunned by three things plus one bonus that all came together in my head as I was doing so.

1. The darkner in the church can cure poison. My S. Poison I bought from Spamton like a maniac was turned into S.Potion and it heals 200HP and it says it's an energy drink with a car brand...

2. The True Tie. Combining the Tenna Tie and the frayed bow tie I also bought a crap tone of and kept one from Spamton combine into Spamton's actual original tie...?

3. "ALL YOUR FRIENDS, [[Abandoned you for the slime]] YOU ARE?" - Spamton

"I can never... forget the slime" -Tenna

... Tenna says he could never forget the slime... He could never forget Spamton. And he says it like he's mourning.

Bonus: (this will be relevant in a moment) The Addisons can't stop thinking about him. They copy him, yes, but he's on their mind, and they felt guilty in the trash zone. Business is business. Its all about bigger bigger better... And they keep coming back to him. They can't forget him either.

The only item left FROM him that hasn't been healed in some way is the broken sword (which I'm also hoarding)...

Can his friends restore him too...?

They haven't forgotten. They won't. They've TRIED and yet here his items are being turned not just into useful items, but HIS items. Restored.

His parallels to Kris, and Kris getting worse and worse with us puppeting them even in the pacifist run, I think friends will matter a lot to bring Kris from the brink.

I normally would think Spamton being restored would be poor story telling. Him not being accepted as he is in his hroken state and all... But in THIS story, with the connections between him and Kris... I think it would work. I really think it could work. (And I'd probably cry like a baby too, but that's besides the point.)

Everytime I've second guessed this hunch because it seems too happy-fun-times, I keep being reminded his items are being restored by other darkners. Restored to HIS brand, HIS clothes... Why can't they work together to restore him too...? All his friends care. They all remember him.

He thought he was alone, abandoned and forgotten.

He promised in the pacifist fight that he'd live for himself and his friends. I think that scope will grow. I don't know when or how, but those items... Those bits of dialog...

The lost being found, the isolated reintegrated, and memories being a source of healing, and after the encounters with the flowers, maybe even dreams....

I think there's foreshadowing being laid down here that the two Darkners that we found and who gave themselves up for us can be reunited with the darkners that miss them and whom they themselves miss.

And what that might mean for Dess?...

And don't me started with the dearly beloved Dr WD with this concept (and forgotten man)

I'll leave it there. Have fun with this idea, because I can't shake the feeling restoration will be a big deal in the future one way or another.

(okay I was about to post this when I remembered ONE OTHER KINDA BIG THING. Love. Can't even say the word. His view of it is so twisted after his experience with being cut off so severely the man can't even say it, Level Of ViolencE OR love. But the flowers talk about it constantly. CONSTANTLY. They work together the entire time. They rely on it. Is that all just for the Susie Noelle stuff, or does it apply more broadly? Love isn't exclusive to romance. Care isn't just about people smoochin'. The flowers express the romantic, the friendly and the familial loves. Love can be healing, and Spamton wants [Hyperlink blocked] so he can be a big shot. Maybe that's exactly what he needs to get that, and the players fawning over him in the real world won't fix what's wrong. He may have given up on the other darkners, but they haven't given up on him in their hearts and minds. Clearly.

Guys... He's on my face. Come get yer boy.... And then give him back when you're done. His stats are amazing, I swear he can come home after our adventures. He has a 9 to 5 as my sick shades. I want him to have "aided in the world being saved" on his resume. Then he can retire to his preferred 9 to 5)

This time... I live for myself

Watch me fly

"Tell me to grow wings...

And let's fly out of this stupid town"

Toby did it first so idk if this is out of bounds or naw. If it's too much lemme know. This moment just really REALLY got to me...

Tenna getting his vengeance from yesterday

Pass it on

When Toby posted it I started playing around in bandlab immediately to recreate and play off it. Deltarune tomorrow fr 🎉

Idk if thats a typo on the actual text or a pun i don't get yet but dont at me about "refreshmen" XD

He's making me feel bad

If we get Azzy in chapter 5 and I still have no Papyrus to show for it, he's officially gained my ire. DONT YOU "MABEY" ME BONE MAN. PUT THAT WINK AWAY. HAND OVER THE PAPY-ROOS AND I WONT SUMMON THE SHIBA-INUS
