lightrises:

even now i’ll sit back sometimes (like.., today) and reflect on the fact that alphys – the exact sort of non-protag whose narrative would 9 times out of 10 shaft or diminish her or carelessly impinge on realizing her potential bc she’s not ~The Right Type for that – not only got a sympathetic portrayal that alternated between funny and sweet and sad and thoroughly gut-wrenching, it’s also super easy to make the “meatiest and best-written character in the whole damn game” argument for her

like. i’m so used to characters like alphys being relegated to joke and plot device status and yet here she is in ut, being complex and fleshed-out and integral and getting the girl holy shit. she’s not let down by her narrative and that still makes me ridiculously happy

I think there should be more science-y Alphys stuff. The determination experiments didn’t go well, obviously, but she is still a competent scientist otherwise, having created Mettaton’s body, a jetpack phone with interdimensional storage, the Undernet, and most likely a lot of the general technology in the underground besides the Core. I love cute stuff, otaku stuff, and Alphyne, but I also want more Alphys inventing things, Alphys experimenting with human technology, Alphys helping Frisk with science projects, etc.
