#Deltarune: Dark-Insert

[dork-a-doodle]

Cringe is dead and I’m redesigning my old UT/DR OC/Self-Insert: Echo (she/they)

Info dump about them below the cut!

So I originally made them in the wake of Deltarune’s release, when the whole “we, the players, are possessing Kris 😱” thing was very fresh and the whole Undertale Multiverse was still going strong. So naturally they started out as basically a self insert, the version of me that played Undertale and later Deltarune.

So a quick rundown of their lore (btw I make no apologies for the Mary Sue aspects of this):

They originally controlled Frisk, doing several different Runs, endlessly curious about the world

At the end of their most recent True Pacifist they find their way back in the True Lab and into a part of it they hadn’t seen before

While exploring they accidentally activated a machine from before Alphys’s time and get Gastered

…kind of

Instead of being fully “shattered across space and time” they’re just… slightly fractured across space and time

Tbh I like to think of it like they got hurled full force at the 4th wall and got stuck in it like jello

Not really breaking the 4th wall so much as jiggling it aggressively and gaining an new kind of perspective

This had some interesting consequences, including (but not limited to):

separating from Frisk (who runs out of the Lab in fear) and gaining a physical form of their own

the ability to slip into different universes at a whim

the inability to talk normally, now effectively “speaking” in text box noises (lmao get Animal Crossing-ed idiot) and thus can’t be understood by most people (with a few exceptions)

the ability to posses objects and other people (which they do feel the need to sometimes as their true form is off putting to most, though they try not to possess people if they can help it)

others probably? haven’t quite figured that out yet

Which these newfound abilities, they decide to explore the multiverse and see all the interesting things it has to offer

But first, they decide they want a traveling companion, so they don’t get lonely

And they know the perfect candidate, someone who understands what it’s like to have unfathomable power and the want to explore all possibilities with that power for your own entertainment and curiosity’s sake

Someone who really doesn’t have anything left to seek in this world

And damn it if Flowey isn’t very interested in that offer

This arrangement is a strangely balanced symbiosis

For Flowey:

traveling the multiverse gives him a kind of clean slate he could never achieve on his own, especially with the loss of his reset powers

the multiverse is also very interesting and fun to explore

they know what he’s been through and what kind of a person that’s made him better than anyone else. they understand it, and they know to judge him for it would be hypocritical

For Echo:

so long as Flowey is attached to them in some capacity he can understand their strange “speech” and frequently acts as a translator (they are also learning sign language to ease that burden)

he’s far more experienced in battle and frequently acts as protection in more aggressive universes

re: the point about mutual understanding

Flowey is also unable to absorb their soul, which means his power over them is limited and if he crosses a line they’re fully able to ditch is ass in any universe they want

It’s notable that while Echo’s curiosity can occasionally override their morality, they’re still more inclined to chose the kinder option

I consider them to be chaotic neutral, leaning towards chaotic good

(I also personally see Flowey as somewhere between true neutral and chaotic neutral, occasionally slipping into chaotic evil. What can I say, he’s a nuanced guy)

Anyway, they travel the multiverse together, experiencing new things, seeing interesting sights, causing chaos

Eventually they find themselves in the Deltarune side of the multiverse

The universe they end up in is one where the entity possessing Kris is an incredibly malevolent one

Or I should say, the entity that was supposed to be possessing Kris

As Echo senses the Bad Vibes approaching this random human child, they say “absolutely the fuck not” and possess Kris themself to block the entity

This does mean they have to drop Flowey to do this, so he’s just kinda in the background for the time being

From there it’s basically just Chapter 1 until the point when Kris rips out the soul and goes to eat some pie

While they’re distracted, Flowey climbs in and breaks open the cage so Echo can unpossess the soul and leave now that the malicious entity is gone

They do decide to stick around and check out these Dark Worlds

Luckily for them, while they were busy dealing with the classroom Dark World, Flowey took the time to explore the town and found this perfectly good empty vessel that someone seems to have discarded

Deciding not to question it, they possess the vessel and wait for a new Dark World to open so they can explore it together

And that’s the basics of their story (or as much of it as I have ironed out lol). Hopefully this hyperfixation stays with me cuz I’d love to explore their character a lot more 😁

AU Progress: Design WIPs

Featuring Susie, Ralsei, Noelle, Berdly and Pinkle (OC).

WIP fullbodies of the DR-SIM mains. There are still some things missing like Ralsei's eyes robe additional patterns, the colors of Pinkle's sword, details on her crown... just wanted to know what impression they give since it's been so long I've been working on this artwork and now it just.. looks wrong to me.

YES I am aware the stripes on Susie's coat are the wrong color. I just noticed and now it bugs me too, lmao.

This is a way better redesign, I don't know why I decided to redraw it. Ralsei's hatless redesign is next to her, but I'm not exactly proud of it enough to show it yet.

Pinkle was supposed to have a dress/skirt, but I figured baggy shorts were better next to her comrades. Ralsei already has the dress silhouette. I've been thinking on giving her this tail too, but it would serve more of an occasional feature than a main one on her Dark World form.

This deserves a post of its own, but I have tried my hand on drawing the lightners and doing my little spin on them, and even if the lineless style looks pretty good, this isn't exactly what I'm looking for.

This is a sprite for Ralsei if I ever make sprite animations, lol. It helps with his robe patterns, especially the ones in the back. DR-SIM Ralsei is very decorated.

Angel Halloween costume for Noelle.

Letter Event [innactive now]

Send your favorite character a letter or message for Valentine's Day, and they'll send a letter or message back! It can be a declaration of love, a time and date to meet up, or anything else you can think of! Feel free to get as creative as possible!

Thinfs to Acknowledge...

Everything will be posted on Valentine's Day, on February 14th 2023.

Send 'Letter Event' letters/messages into my ask inbox or as a personal message before Valentine's Day.

In your letter/message, please be sure to include the character you're addressing, as well as your name (or a fake name) so the character knows who to write to. If you don't put your name, that is perfectly fine; at the very least, include the name of the character you're addressing.

For this event, you can ask for any character to write for you! If it's a character that isn't on the pinned post, please include what fandom they're in so I know who you're talking about!

Get creative as possible! Whip out the good ol' camera and take a picture of a letter you wrote IRL, or go to ifaketextmessage.com and 'send' (screenshot) a message to your beloved character!

If you do write something by hand, please be sure that it's mostly legible! Or, send a transcript of what it says off to the side.

Example of what an ask may look like

💌 Hi there! This is for the event. The character I'm writing to is SpongeBob from the SpongeBob SquarePants show. (Dear Spongebob, I think you're very cute! Can we meet up? Love, Egg.)

[ebtnoob]

made a dark world concept design of random characters.

the characters are michiru, trollface, and EBTnoob (me)

also my design is getting a new render

[patchwork-crow-writes]

Thinking about JRPG final bosses... about how so often they act as physical embodiments of the greater ills of the world they inhabit. Defeat them, the logic goes, and the major obstacle to solving those problems goes away. World peace follows shortly thereafter.

Now, circling round to Deltarune: the "final" bosses of each chapter we have so far are like stand-ins for problems the Fun Gang are experiencing in the Light World. It's generally agreed that King is analogous to Susie's relationship with her own parental figure(s) (presumably dad, but we don't know for certain), and Queen is a cipher for Noelle's mom and her controlling, domineering attitude when it comes to her surviving daughter. We overcome and defeat these darkner manifestations of maladaptive parenting, and both Susie and Noelle are developing into more well-rounded people as a result...

...but crucially, defeating King and Queen has not magically resolved their situations in the light world. It might have given them some guidance on how to better navigate the issues in their lives, but it demonstrates quite clearly that whatever happens in the dark worlds will have no material effect on anything that happens the light world.

All of this to say, I don't think Kris drawing their mom into a dark world is going to magically make things go back to the way they were. Nor do I think that it'll somehow allow Noelle to cure her father's illness. All the dark worlds can really do is help these struggling teenagers to reframe the things that are happening to them, the things that are entirely beyond their meagre control, in order to better cope with life's adversities. That's what I think Deltarune is building up to, honestly - only you can engage with your own problems, and only you can take the action necessary to do so.

To assume that they can turn back the clock, or cure terminal diseases, or magically make people more agreeable, is the trap that may well draw the desperate deeper into the darkness; leaving reality behind altogether to pursue a dreamlike "perfect" scenario where nothing can ever go wrong, and everything that has gone wrong can be fixed without issue - leaving their real-life situations to become worse and worse, which in turn drives them yet deeper into the comforting fantasy of the darkness... a feedback loop that can only really end one way.

Insert something poignant about the Roaring here. Idk I kinda ran out of steam lmao

Valentine's Unknown Sender

A couple of people don't find the Valentine sender's speech in tandem with Gaster's, which I completely agree with! However, not everyone can see what we mean, so let me show you. But before we continue, I should clarify that I'm not a fluent Japanese speaker and am just going off of what little I know about the language.

Now, let me show you the two (out of three) Japanese writing systems: hirigana and katakana.

It helps me think of hirigana as 'squiggly' characters and katakana as 'stiff'. The last one, kanji, you'll recognize immediately, as they can be confused with Chinese characters due to their complexity (and, well, origin).

One of the points I've seen is that the style change is simply due to informality of the letter. Someone also said that it was written this way so we couldn't recognize who was speaking. To get the latter possibility out of the way: during the release of DELTARUNE, the name of the account was blurred out, making them appear as a seemingly unknown person (everyone knew it was our lovable silly goober). Though, they still had a recognizable.. style. They spoke in stilted kanji + katakana. No hirigana anywhere, which is a strange mix. Kanji + hirigana? Sure. But excluding katakana instead of hirigana is weird. Katakana is used for names, loan words (and can also be used to show a foreigner speaking Japanese), names for species, emphasis, and also to indicate unnatural speech, often used for robots (which is the case for Queen, by the way).

Now, the Valentine's person? No kanji. They only use hirigana and katakana. Excluding kanji is very weird, too. But JRPGs at the time (which Toby loved deeply, as there are countless references to them in the game) had hardware limitations, so this choice was somewhat of a tribute. This also applies to the Light World in DELTARUNE, which resembles Undertale heavily. However, in the Dark World, kanji is used. This stranger who people believe to be Mike would have to be a Lightner to speak without using kanji. Which makes me doubt that this is Mike at all. He has an affiliation with Spamton, with Tenna. They go a long way, before the fountain opened. And a Lightner can't enter a Dark World without one. More on that later. Back to the letter, the grammar mistake is not accidental. In the Japanese version the sender writes "サラ ば!" which should be either in full katakana (サラバ) or full hirigana (さらば), not a weird mix. Also, 'goodbye' in Japanese is one word and should not be separated like that. So, same thing with the letter. While we're not told who it is, their speech still has distinct features. 🎉 PRONOUN TIME 🎉🎉 Who uses what? (I've highlighted Gaster in bold where needed.)

I: watashi (わたし) by both You: kimi (キミ) vs anata* (アナタ -> あなた) [* -- kimitachi in Entry 17] We: watashitachi (わたしたち) vs ware-ware (ワレワレ -> 我々)

Watashi is a regular formal first-person pronoun. Kimi (+tachi for plural) is a more casual second-person pronoun, can either be used by a superior to refer to a subordinate or one's equal. Anata is a respectful second-person pronoun. Ware-ware is a first-person plural pronoun used by either ancient beings or just someone old and important. The download page for DELTARUNE in 2018, the SURVEY_PROGRAM itself, the SAVE menu, the GAME OVER screen -- all of them share these same speech quirks, mannerisms. Gaster isn't just "formal", he speaks very slowly, often separating a sentence in two parts by starting off a new line. He uses very peculiar wording and it's as if he's struggling to speak. Picture an alien trying to communicate in our language, or a human that knows this 🤏 much [insert language], trying to form a sentence.

Gaster's quirks are also present in Japanese, the localization reflects what I just talked about. He's unnaturally stiff. He also never uses commas, and it's not about formality -- it's a distinct feature of his.

(For the Love of God Can You Embed Like a Normal Video)

Also, there have been suggestions that it could be another piece of Gaster. We already got a glimpse of what he was like pre-accident, and it's ENTRY 17. It lines up with the Gaster that accompanies us throughout chapter 1. And that means we are dealing with the most cohesive 'piece' of him. Why would, then, there be such an opposing part of him? It doesn't line up.

Personally, if this was about Gaster, I wholeheartedly agree with carlyraejepsans's take. And the only case which I'd agree on is DR Gaster.

So, here's the "later". The person knowing about the DELTA RUNE could line up with them being a Lightner, since they do have it plastered everywhere in the town, don't they? Only the Angel is ever mentioned in the Light World, but I'm sure that just like in Undertale, it's called DELTA RUNE by the Lightners just as it is by Ralsei. It seems to me that only the contents of the prophecy are different, but the name stays the same throughout worlds.

Though, funny how the prophecy is inverted.. I didn't notice it until now. In Undertale the focus is on the triangles and their salvation, while in DELTARUNE the focus is on the winged orb and its condemnation.

"You free the banished" vs "You banish the freest" hehheeh Anyway, it's not about the game, but the prophecy, so the person doesn't have THAT much knowledge. And I doubt they know about Ralsei's version of the prophecy, because other Darkners besides the prince himself don't seem to be aware of any prophecy. All they know is the Knight, which makes sense, since Asriel's doppelgänger stayed at his castle in wait of the Lightners all alone, without spreading a word about it. Neither Darkners nor Lightners know of it. Though, the phrasing does feel odd. Waiting for what exactly? DELTA RUNE? Also, the Japanese version having the name merged kind of bothers me. So, is it DELTARUNE or DELTA RUNE? The translation team does distinguish the two. Why not here? Was it intentional or not? Well, I'll leave it up to someone else to figure out, right now I'm too tired for that.

tl;dr(?): It's not UT Gaster, nor Mike (it's not a Darkner at all). It's a Lightner and possibly DR Gaster.

Something people never mention:

Pshh, hey you... Look at these screen caps i took.

Notice something? He said, "GOD" Then paused, and finished his expression of frustration with, "DAMMIT".

So, you might be wondering, what am I getting at here? Well, you see... He said, GOD dammit, and it occurred to me...

How does darkner know of the concept of God? How would they even find out that information? Now there are plenty of darkners who know bits and pieces of knowledge about the dark world, this is to be expected as they are actually objects, and when they became sentient, perhaps they carried knowledge of what they're object form overheard to they're new body.

But like... The town doesn't HAVE a god, they're religion is based off an angel, so i doubt there would really be any conversation involving God that a random card in a school supply closet could overhear.

This doesn't mean i don't think the deltarune world doesn't have the concept of God, it's a whole world, there's probably some other religions around the world, but that the town of deltarune SPECIFICALLY, wouldn't be a town where a mere card could learn of such a concept.

To me, this means one of five things:

Perhaps, although there is an angel at the heart of the towns religion, there is perhaps a god aswell, after all, angels an gods are connected, but this would bring into question would the higher form of power, the god, is not worshipped instead of the angel. Maybe the god is evil or something, or maybe the person who created the religion only knew of the existence of the angel and not the god who could've created it.

Darkners have more knowledge then what they just hear, allthough it is logical that they would only know what they're object forms heard or witnessed, perhaps they have other random knowledge as well, certain npc's like the bosses of each chapter, jevil, and sean, know more knowledge then you would expect them to, so perhaps they are just born with this knowledge inside of them, although people like queen still don't know about the roaring, despite the fact that you would think someone like her would, so this knowledge is pretty inconsistent.

Perhaps he knows about is, due to his knowledge as a retainer to a king, kings are appointed as such by God some would posit, so perhaps as a card darkner, he is just aware of such beings.

Maybe Rouxls is just fricking weird, dude is hella sus so it wouldn't surprise me if he had knowledge like that for actually unknown reasons.

Toby just thought it would be funny and didnt think about it too hard, this is probably the most likely one, (Insert joke about utdr theorists overthinking the games), not everything has answers, toby is just a regular dude, and expecting everything he puts into the game to have meaning and nuance is an unrealistic standard

Let me know what your thoughts on it are, have any other explanations about how rouxls know this? Agree with one of my theories? Found a counterpoint or piece of evidence or something I'm missing? Let me know, reblog, comment, all that stuff.

[canadiancryptid]

So I started thinking about the game on Asriel's computer, and now I can't stop thinking about the possibility of Asriel and/or Kris being the ones to create Undertale. I mean, if Gaster might have created Deltarune, why couldn't they have made Undertale?

I mean, its clearly supposed to be a reference to the Asriel fight, but I started questioning if there might be more to it, and here I am.

They way this has been piecing together in my brain, I see it as more Kris picking up what Asriel started and never finished some time after the events of Deltarune, with every intention of having it played by the same entity that controlled them.

All of the similarities between the games can easily be things that were based of their actual adventures and people from Hometown. What I'm interested in are the major differences.

- Most of the magic used by monsters could be based on what little magic they can use in the Light World, as well as magic used by both Lightners and Darkners in Dark Worlds.

- Frisk and Chara being so similar to Kris makes perfect sense if they were inspired by them. They both share a ton of traits with Kris, but Chara seems to have the most. Frisk is the player character based on their experience while under the player's control, and Chara is the self-insert that fills their role in the Dreemurr family, but is also one of two characters in the game who directly speak to you as the player.

- Gaster and all his mysteries could be based on whatever entity we've been assuming IS Gaster in Deltarune. They never fully found out what was going on there, but they knew putting in references to it would drive the curious players insane.

There's something about the idea of Kris creating Undertale because of the events with the player in Deltarune, only for most of us to find Deltarune in the first place because of Undertale.

The one major part of this theory is how Asriel is depicted in Undertale. I guess it could be explained as Asriel's edgy OC from when he was working on it getting reworked for the story, but that might be stretching it a bit.

Do I think any of this is even close to canon? Not for a second. Pure crack theory. But I can't stop thinking about it and it makes a concerning amount of sense. There are a bunch of other smaller things I can think of that could be looped in, but these are most of the main ones. I don't like how deeply this has infected my brain.

[starburst-selfship]

Here’s my redesign for my Deltarune self insert, now digitalized lol. I’m gonna have to try and design her lightner form as well bc I never actually finalized it before. Ig before that I can tell yall more about him

Her name is Bry (or Bryson it can be interchangeable) and he’s the biological older sibling of Kris. Originally he was gonna go to an art college out of state, but since Asriel left for his education, Bry decided to stay home to work as an assistant teacher for Ms Alphys’ class, that way he can keep Kris company while also keeping an eye on them.

In the dark world, Bry is a lot more protective of her little sibling than normal, especially in Cyber City, but still tries to not be a helicopter sibling regardless.

Commission Update - Partnership

I've partnered up with @tvccreator, and we both will be working on writing commissions! For commissions that have already been made before this announcement, I'll still work on them alone (unless otherwise requested). I can also continue to work on certain commissions alone and I'll ask before inviting them to work on a new commission with me, but here are some pros to having us both work on a singular commission together;

Commissions will be completed at a very fast rate. It usually takes around a month for me to finish a 3k word commission alone, but partnered with @tvccreator, those commissions could be done within a week or so depending on schedules.

Currently, there are no extra fees when I partner up with them. So the fees seen over here will stay.

Unless asked to change, general writing format and layout will remain the same.

Ellie (@tvccreator) knows a lot about demons and the like, and would certainly love to write about them. (Examples incluuude: Lucifer, Asmodeus, Mephistopheles, numerous Greek deities, Leviathan... and even Dracula!)

However, there are a few minor differences and changes that come with two people writing for a commission that should be noted;

Writing style will be different than how I normally write. Here's one example of us writing together.

Payment can be a little whacky. It's split 50/50, and Ellie has a Paypal while I have a Cashapp and a GoFundMe page. Though, we've agreed on having the full payment sent to me and I'll send her the half, so it's nothing to worry about.

Ellie has a few things she won't write, which includes Dead Dove aspects, graphic rape/non-con scenes, and extreme degradation. However, she can write Original Works/Non-Fandom fics, and writes for almost every fandom and character listed in my pinned post. A couple main exclusions/fandoms/characters she won't write are Invader Zim (fandom), Minecraft Storymode, SCP-049, Krobus, and a few other characters. If you're unsure if she'll write it, don't be afraid to ask!

If you'd like to commission us (Guidelines and prices can be found here), send either me or @tvccreator a message!

Some less-lore-oriented Gaster Thoughts(TM)

y'know, i don't imagine this is anything New per se, especially in terms of like. theorycrafting for lore, but. for a perspective of looking at undertale through a literary lens, maybe it is you ever think about the parallels between gaster and toby himself? I mean, both use the official undertale twitter, and... gaster is like, this super powerful plot device used to explain certain things. it feels like in a way, gaster is tobys real self insert. ive even heard rumors that his easter eggs were added as a way to make sans powerful and make that make sense

but i've been thinking about gasters fate, tobys history with UT/DR, and how it mirrors what dark fountains and dark worlds seem to be attempting to deconstruct, what they're literary metaphors for

For some reason, I remember always thinking that... "falling into his own creation" just. Literally meant he fell into either the core or... shoved himself in the DT extractor. But I mean, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what that can mean. To fall into something can be to get absorbed in it in every facet of your life, to be thinking about it lots, or... just letting it take you over, in a way. To fall into ones own creation is to obsess over it. Was he obsessed in his research into... ah, we're getting into actual lore. Whoops Anyways, it would be odd for toby to have written this if you think about it as a parallel to the absolute success of undertale, since hes very humble and didn't expect a huge success... but when you think of it in the context of how much he, not a thriving community, was absolutely absorbed in his own creations? How he stopped the development of deltarune to make undertale? How hes still working on making that one dream he had years ago come true?

I think it pieces together as... quite poetic. I wouldn't say it was enough to make me believe it was intentional, though. When I piece that together with the brilliant theory that Andrew Cunningham posed in his video about determination in deltarune, though? Well, specifically that... deltarune is aiming to deconstruct our relationship to escapism, and that dark worlds are metaphors for creating fiction... Maybe gaster really was the first one to create a dark world, and. well. what happens when you go into a dark world? you fall into it. Perhaps gaster made himself more than just a simple dark world, but the entire world of deltarune, and thats why hes the... narrative god or whatever, at the beginning. Whether he made one or not, I cant say for certain. But I think I can say that toby may have made one, and thats one thing I'm curious to hear insight into after deltarune is all said and done. Was it always meant to be about a creators relationship to creations? about getting absorbed in fantasy? And how might this narrative have changed, as his own work became as loved and famous as it is? Only time will tell, won't it? Mr. brilliant White Dog ...
