can we all just appreciate how blatantly in love Undyne and Alphys are with each other throughout the whole game? when you’re with them, it’s so hard to find something that they do that doesn’t involve the other person. 

the only reason Undyne has soda at her house is bc of Alphys. Alphys brings all the gifts she wants to give to Undyne on her date with you. Undyne always calls Alphys cute, and before they officially got together, Alphys was like “LOL PLATONICALLY, RIGHT?? HAHAHAHAHA SHE’D NEVER BE WITH ME!!!” Undyne called Alphys to ask her about the weather as a poor excuse just to hear her voice when there is no fuckin weather in Hotland oh my god. Alphys watches Undyne fight and i fuckin bet you she just sits there going “god she’s so hot”. Undyne only lets Alphys into her bedroom. i can only fuckin assume that Undyne got that dress Alphys had, and when she saw her wearing it she was like “whoa! you look really cute!”. when Undyne and Alphys first met, Alphys was staring at the abyss in the garbage dump, and a lot of people have suggested (bc of the different neutral endings), that she was considering suicide, and that at that moment when Undyne began to talk to her, her entire fate just changes. 

also, the entire roleplay scene. also when Undyne says the garbage dump is a great place to pick up girls. also when Alphys freaks out when she forgot to watch the fight you had with Undyne. they’re both huge embarrassing nerds. gigantic nerds. 

i’m so glad for these girls. these nerds. i’m so happy for them. i literally. i’m so glad.

#also can i just add that i love the match-up in character types #it’s the nerd of the team and the big tough scary muscle #but unlike in most fiction they’re both women?? #and they’re in love?? and there’s no shitty nerd/jock dynamic where they initially dislike/disrespect each other #they just love and respect each other from the beginning even though they’re super different and they’re both women on top of it #frick yes #das some good good shit

So, there’s been a bunch of fighting in the Fandom recently over whether or not it is OK to portray Frisk and Chara as a binary gender. I prefer my blog conflict free, but I feel strongly about this so I’m going to weigh in as briefly as I can manage.

Frisk and Chara are canonically nonbinary. I’m not going to argue this. @saveloadreset already has. 1. 2.

Now, I think it is everyone’s right to enjoy a work of fiction in their own way. If that means writing a genderbent AU, then so be it. I may not be interested in it, but that just means I won’t read it. The existence of an AU that breaks from the canon doesn’t harm the canon or the original experience.

Please, consider the lessons taught in Undertale. Show some mercy to these creators and let them be.

That being said, nonbinary characters are EXCEEDINGLY RARE. And to a nonbinary individual seeking representation, inclusion in the fandom is of deep importance. 

So if you are planning a fanwork, before you start slapping binary pronouns onto nonbinary characters, I would ask that you please consider why you are doing this. Is it necessary? Or are you just doing it because you can?

And if you have the power to make something inclusive, if you have to go out of your way not to, don’t you think you have a responsibility to do the right thing?

Well. Just think about it. That’s all I ask.

#agreed #please be good to people who choose to interpret something differently #but also try to understand that misgendering in the canon sense can feel very invalidating to others

Someone’s headcanon doesn’t take away from anything; this is a case of addition, not subtraction. Literally basic math.

desbian:

Y’see, normally headcanons are fine. It’s when a character is canonically a part of a minority, and someone has a “headcanon” to take them out of that minority group, that there is a problem. It takes away representation, which NB folks especially don’t get a lot of in media. And especially in this case, someone calling Frisk or Chara a boy or girl sends the message to everyone who sees it, “if someone goes by they/them pronouns, it’s perfectly okay for you to disregard that and use he/him or she/her pronouns for them instead”.
