Ralsei had never dared to dream that he could be loved by anyone, so when he and his two best friends fall into a whirlwind romance, he can hardly believe his good fortune. But in the days that follow, the darkner prince finds himself wondering if everything might just be too good to be true, and that he could be nothing more than a mere accessory to his lightner partners.

With his head in the clouds and his heart plagued with doubts, can he reach out to his newfound loves and convince them - and indeed himself - that the love they share is worth preserving?

A Kralsusie story told across multiple short chapters, each told from Ralsei's POV. Some mild angst with a happy resolution, and lots of cuteness and wholesomeness along the way.

Chapter 2! Whereby there’s a big underground fighting tournament going on right under the Prince’s nose, he and Susie bond a bit while watching people fight, and Ralsei get a WHOLE lot more than he bargained for!

With hope crossed on our hearts

Ooh, that's interesting! I especially like that idea in the context of Ralsei struggling with his identity issues versus his assigned purpose as a darkner. Perhaps he reaches a point where his very sense of self is in danger of fragmenting and, as you put it, floating away...

But his connection to Kris and Susie through the SOUL prevents that from happening, and turns Blue so that he is literally grounded. You have to be more active when the soul is blue, jumping to avoid obstacles you'd normally float over, timing those jumps to ensure you land on safe ground. That could reflect his needing to put conscious effort into fighting his identity issues, needing to put in the hard work so that he can navigate those treacherous pathways and come out the other side, perhaps not fully formed, but with a stronger sense of who he is, and what truly matters to him.

Really interesting idea, thanks for sharing it with us!

Okay, about the blue soul,

firstly, it's important to note that I haven't fought Gerson yet,

but I feel like If the soul turns blue next chapter, it might be not because someone did this to us but because it would benifit us in a way.

I imagine it's turning blue to keep whoever needs it grounded/ from flying away or something.

'Berdly... you've tried so hard to fill the role that was given to you. I can understand what that's like, struggling against your ordained place in the world. But, when things go right, doesn't it make you feel so... fulfilled? That's your purpose calling to you, Berdly. You saw winning that spelling bee as a happy accident, but maybe it was destiny... putting you where you needed to be, like a block slotting neatly onto a switch.'

'A block... I'm like... a block puzzle...?'

'...everyone is, to a greater or lesser extent. And perhaps you just... haven't quite found your switch yet. But you'll get there one day, I'm sure of it. So, keep going, no matter how painful it gets. Because despite the hardship and the doubt... this is who you're meant to be, Berdly.

'And it's the only way you'll ever be truly fulfilled.'

I may or may not be thinking about a scenario where Ralsei WAS around to give the moral lesson to Berdly in Chapter 2.

I may or may not be thinking about how badly that could have gone.

update on my ralsei design

[patchwork-crow-writes]

"baaaa~"

Still thinking about that soft, gentle "baaaa~" that Ralsei makes when you push him in Block Forme... like, he's so happy to be pushed by his good friend Kris. They're such good Pushing Buddies you guys 🥹

"baaaa~"

Deltarune really is a story where every single ship is emotionally devastating, like

Krusie is like “I have barely known you for three days but I would happily die if it meant I could protect you. I regret every second we spent thinking we hated each other, because now that I see the real you, it’s the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. You are the one person I can truly rely on, even if I have to keep the most devastating of secrets from you that will bury me in the end. I see you, and I love you.”

Kriselle is like “I haven’t had a conversation with you last more than five minutes in years and I can still remember every word we’ve said to each other. We were the closest two people could possibly be without literally sharing a body and now I don’t even know how to talk to you. I pretend like you don’t mean anything to me because admitting how much I still love you terrifies me to the core, and I feel insane guilt every day over the fact I broke us apart. I hope one day you can forgive me for being a terrible friend.”

Suselle is like “You are everything that I am not that I so desperately want to be. You hide your true self away under these layers of facade but I can see the sparkling gem underneath and it is such a beautiful sight, I don’t think I am worthy to behold it. I want to steal every moment I can with you and I will fight to do so even if fate itself attempts to tears us apart. I don’t know if I will ever deserve you but I will still reach out to you, and I will find a way to keep you.”

Susei/Ralsusie is like “We are polar opposites in every way I can imagine and it only brings us closer together. You complete me in ways I did not know I needed to be completed. When everything and everyone told me that I did not matter, you told me I am important not in spite of but because of who I am. I will take every blow and every injury if it means protecting your smile and keeping you safe. I will even destroy my own heart if it means giving you the happiness that I know for a fact you deserve.”

Kralsei is like “What if you met the person that was literally made for you, and that all the world was pushing you together, but there was something wrong? What if the person you were born to fall in love with was an unflattering, bitter depiction of who you are and who you used to be? What if your honest to God Soulmate was keeping secrets and undermining everything you have dedicated your life to do, not out of cruelty or malicious intent, but because it was genuinely what they needed to do, what they were always going to do? And what if, in spite of all of that, you fell in love with each other anyways?”

Kerdly is like “I don’t know if I can call you my friend or say I care about you, but you still define so much of who I am, intentionally or otherwise. I don’t have many people who would give a shit if I live or die, and I don’t know if you’re one of them, but I still need you to be in my life. I will fight you, I will hurt you, I will defy everything you want if I absolutely have to, but when the chips are down I will do whatever it takes to keep you safe. I don’t know if I love you, I don’t even know if I like you, but I still need you, whatever that even means.”

Dessriel…I mean, do I even have to explain that one? Whatever happened, however things went, you already know.

ANY adult Holiday/Dreemurr ship is like “We were once something special, closer than anyone could possibly imagine. My home was your home, and yours was mine. Even outside of what the world might accept, we were one family. Then everything went wrong, and now we’ve fallen apart. My life is crumbling down around me in ways I didn’t even think were possible, and yet I still care about you. I still love you, even as we rapidly approach the end, and the world crumbles down around me. I don’t know if we’re still a family, but you will always be my home.”

I mean, fuck, right?
