#when chapter 1 came out I thought Kris didn't like themselves very much

[ariadnesweb]

Pretty sure Kris likes their soul

Kris steps back in fear once Spamton shows interest in their soul.

(Notice how Kris changes places from being in between the two posters to standing at the edge of the first?)

Legendarily DO NOT like the Hearts Donut, which seems to mimic a soul.

Have hearts on their roller coaster

(Both Susie and Ralsei have straightforward caricatures of their preferred selves - Susie is fierce and on fire, similar to how she likes her cars, Ralaei is cutesy to the point of being weird.)

Have the noted trait of pointing and hearts appearing

(the other trait is eating moss, which they seem to like.)

All of the above seem to point that Kris values their soul,

like alot,

like,

wouldn't trade it to Spamton for freedom a lot

Two main explanations for this, as I see it:

1. Kris has experience being soulless, considers it extremely unpleaseant, to the point they'd rather have it on, despite controlling them

2. Kris's soul belongs to Kris. They value it because it's a part of them, and they don't want it to get hurt, because that's a way they get hurt too.
