One Of These Days

One of these days

Headcanon time!!

Sooo I've been thinking. What if after he became a flower, Asriel's voice didn't change? It's not like flowers are normally capable of speaking, so the only reason this particular flower can is because of magic (and determination, sure, but we have no idea what would happen to a random flower that doesn't have a dead person's essence. maybe it wouldn't become alive in the first place. so yeah, magic it is). And since the flower had Asriel's essence, when the kid was reborn in this new form, the magic made his voice sound the same as when he was alive a monster. Because — I'm reminding every single one of you — Asriel and Flowey are the same person. So why would the voice be different?

Anyway, time passed. My personal headcanon is that he started to use the name Flowey very early in the timelines when he was still helping people, but it was like an alias. Later, when he started doing bad things (not kill-everyone-i-once-loved bad but what-if-i-ruined-someone's-whole-life bad), "Flowey" became an excuse. Because "Asriel" was associated with kindness and all that stuff and he didn't want to ruin that image for himself. And it helped that by that time he was good with voices, so he made a voice for this villain to add more differences between "Asriel" and "Flowey"

And then one day he killed someone (I'm thinking either Toriel or Asgore). And was like "Oh well, Asriel Dreemurr is truly dead now. I destroyed him with my bare vines. Just look how bad and irredeemable I am!" And if he's very much not Asriel anymore (again, according to Flowey himself, not to me), the "villain" voice became permanent. And after some time, he got so used to it that it was harder to do his previous voice that the new one

BUT!! In the moments of extreme emotions, when he "breaks the character", he uses the Asriel voice!! Like at the end of No Mercy run when Flowey begs not to kill him, the voice clip changes to Asriel's!! I think it's not intentional, he just slips. Yeah, you could say he was trying to address Chara's better judgment and make them remember he was their best friend so they'll spare him, and that's definitely an option! I think he does an impression of Asriel in the Pacifist when he's calling you! But not in No Mercy. He's too terrified to make any impressions

Fun fact!! This headcanon came to me when I was listening to Undertale the Musical, the No Mercy (nope, I'm not saying the other word) Package specifically. And there, in Floweytale, I kept hearing some sort of really fast transition from Asriel to Flowey when he says "Nowadays it's all the same". Like.... WHY? The voices aren't even similar and yet I still hear that every time I decide to suffer and listen to that Package. But ok, it gave me an idea for a headcanon (and a heart attack when I first heard the word nowadays in a much more Asriel than Flowey voice), I'm not complaining

I have no fear

This post: *exists*

I have one fear

ok so its 4am and i cant sleep and i cant stop thinking about how in deltarune almost every single established relationship in undertale seems to be more distant or even completely inverted. the royal guards are just bros, undyne and alphys dont know each other, and bratty and catty just outright hate each other, the list goes on and on

so basically what im saying is that im fucking terrified of whatever dynamic asriel and papyrus might have

Susie: Okay, so

Susie: You’re trying to tell me that Kris has a brother that I just… never seen before

Noelle: Yeah… you moved here just a few weeks after he went to college.

Susie: And this brother is just this wonderful and perfect guy that everyone in town just LOVES

Susie: And he JUST HAPPENS to look exactly like my best bro Ralsei

Susie: And his name is literally just an anagram of Ralsei’s name

Noelle: Yeah, that’s what’s so w-

Susie: And you expect me to believe

Susie: That this “Asriel Dreemurr”

Susie: Actually exists???

Noelle: ??????????????????

Susie: I mean, this is a prank right? You’re trying to prank me, right???

Susie: Oh yeah, Kris’ “Older Brother”, everyone knows Kris’ “"Older Brother”“, Kris’ famous ”“"Older”“” “”“Brother”“”

Susie: This super perfect guy that EVERYBODY knows and loves but he’s not here right now, he left just before you moved here AND he just happens to look exactly the same as Ralsei??? I mean, if you’re trying to fool me, you could have at least gone with a less stupid idea.

Noelle: ??????????? SUSIE??????????? IS THIS A JOKE

Susie: *YOU’RE* THE ONE TRYING TO CONVINCE ME THAT ASGORE AND TORIEL ACTUALLY NAMED THEIR SON “ASRIEL” I MEAN WHO DOES THAT

Hey everyone!! I just realized I really wanna see Papyrus and Alphys being friends so if you know any good fanworks centered around their relationship, I'd appreciate it if you shared them🥺 I mean, they'd have such a cool dynamic, I WANT IT EXPLORED

It doesn't have to be only platonic btw, romantic is also ok. I mean, I'd prefer platonic more, but everything is alright

Remembered we still haven't seen Papyrus in Deltarune and now I wanna cry
