TW: mention of abuse/child abuse and mention of suicide

haven't seen many people talk about chara's potential need for "purpose." like:

"At first, I was so confused. Our plan had failed, hadn't it? Why was I brought back to life? … You. With your guidance. I realized the purpose of my reincarnation. Power. Together, we eradicated the enemy and became strong."

how many people would come back to life and think, "what am i supposed to do with this?" instead of "why has this happened and what do *i want* to do with it?" purpose is a very specific word choice here.

it makes me wonder if chara is someone who is defined by a lack of autonomy in their life. probably linking to the angel prophecy, though also probably going back even further to their original life on the surface world. assuming they were mistreated, this hints they were very closely controlled by their human guardians. and then to fall down, be accepted by a loving family, and then hear of the angel from the surface who's supposed to set the monsters free?

this makes sense as to why they'd even kill themselves to help set monsterkind free. because it's their grand, prophesised "purpose." and, failing that but coming back to life, surely there must be a "purpose of [their] reincarnation"?

well, watching frisk/the player at work, they can either learn to trust in kindness, mercy and love, forgiving asriel and hopefully forgetting the whole "purpose" talk (hm. susie deltarune quote) OR be shown that they were not only right to use violence, they in fact should use it against everyone, they have been wronged and humans and monsters must suffer for it, they must attain power so they can eliminate this wretched world.

and they can't unsee what you've done, the purpose you've shown them, so they will use your soul to carry it out again on a post-no-mercy pacifist run.

thinking about it, they do also talk in a very grand way. not like flowey, who acts menacing and sinister and taunts you constantly. they talk very calmly (in a no-mercy playthrough) thinking about the world in a very "the grand scheme of things" way, a rotten thing that needs to be destroyed. i think, if someone believed their purpose was to destroy an entire world, they would come to speak about it and talk and think in that sort of way.

i think it adds a lot of depth to chara. they're not just an angry kid who can be swayed so easily by what you show them. they're someone who has defined themselves by a need for purpose, to do whatever they were destined to do.

it also shows, that no matter how calm and confident they seem, that they are a kid who latches on to whoever shows them love or alliance.

in my most recent game of team defense fort 2 i was banned from a 24/7 hightower pony rp server for screaming ‘incoming gamer!’ into my mic every time i respawned or charged as demoman. and i have to say, nothing really prepares you for the sensation of hearing a grown man say with no hint of irony in his voice, ‘mr sex goblin, if you dont stop saying that im banning you from ponyville forever’
