hi tumblr I love the dreemurrs 🌼
Feather, big fan of your art and especially your characterisation of Asriel.
But I was scrolling doomscrolling while extremely out of it and I saw this image and for a split second I thought that you got hired by Toby to be an official utdr artist and I was losing my mind.
A fan of a fanartist can only dream😔
LOOL duuude omg. I wish 😭
mr fox hit me up save me i work at a grocery store save me
ty btw <3!!
This is referencing an analysis video I saw on Poppups ads, but considering that Asriel has that how to draw dragons book with the uhh. Particularly dressed purple dragon woman on the cover? I have the feeling Susie’s reaction to his room might have something to do with that
yeaahhh I remember that damnass book...
please let him beat the allegations please god 😔 in my heart. it's just susie making fun of how much of a dork loser he is and I will stand by that
your art is like a window to 12-year old me's sick and twisted mind. goat boy with tragic backstory and badass star rainbow powers? you best believe i was holding him like a squeaky touy. and subconsciously absorbing into my own designs, apparently, some of them to date still have leftover stripes.
even now as a grown, arguably not responsible adult, every time the asriels appear on the dash i do my most collected impression of man on window saying yes... Yes.......
so i guess thank you for existing and making someones inner edgelord very happy /pos
man. ty this makes me very very glad <3 its all a window to my own mind when I was in middle school and obsessed with him LOL. some force took over me and I decided to replay the game and all of those ancient middle school thoughts came back to me at once. I'm in a chokehold
Hi again! Fan of Chara here!
Do you think Chara still cared about Asriel and his family despite theIR love for efficiency and maximizing everything?
They did say in the newsletter that once they became invincible, "nothing can hurt anyone anymore."
Just love to hear your thoughts if it's no trouble at all.
oou interesting question!! thank you very much I looove when ppl ask me about characters teehee
I actually draw chara a bit more charitable than I actually see them, tbh..
the way I interpret it is that chara DID care for the family, certainly. someone who doesn't care doesn't make a pink "mr dad guy" sweater, assuming that was made by them lawl, but also... I don't think chara was the nicest individual tbh. I always thought the small bits of characterization we get of them before death is very indicative of someone who probably wasn't treated very well, and thus has warped perceptions of what a loving environment should be and how to reciprocate these things
specifically, in the true lab, even though we don't know directly what they say, the tapes very much imply that they probably belittled asriel for things like crying, showing weakness (which certainly did NOT help his mindset down the line) and that they seem to bring his faith in them into question as a way to goad him on when he showed hesitation ->
not that I'm on the "chara popped out a villainous monster" train ofc, I very much think these things are even more evidence they didn't have the best life ever on the surface. and that's pretty much confirmed with asriels dialogue from the pacifist ending where he says chara "hated humanity" and climbed the mountain for an "unhappy reason"
and speaking of that dialogue, I think it very strongly implies that the reason chara made asriel pick up their body and bring it to the surface was because they knew he didn't want to do this, and wanted to force him into a self defense situation. I know that sounds like an unfairly cruel analysis, but there isn't really any other reason we would've been given that information in the way we were, just like.. narratively speaking. I believe that they either DID want to actually free monsterkind, or, less charitably, destroy the humans they held a grudge against (i could accept this either way because i dont think the core reasoning is actually integrally important to how the events ended up playing out, and its fun to keep things flexible here). in any case, I believe they definetly prioritized the plan over asriels safety, which isn't all that surprising considering they prioritized it over their own life.
overall I think their drive for efficiency and getting stronger is a product of the more than likely poor environment they came from, and maybe they want that strength to ensure some kind of safety for themself or the ones they love (nothing can hurt you anymore, nothing can hurt anyone anymore etc etc...). I think that whole attribute is a sort of vessel through which they show how they care, but it gets twisted into something more heartless through the genocide run. anyway this is long as hell. my god
