The 2 Faced Soul AU: A Comprehensive (and Lengthy) Guide

The 2 Faced Soul AU is an alternate universe of the game Deltarune, where the game is slightly altered to include 2 players instead of the canon 1. This post will summarize the overall concept up to it’s current point in time.

(As of now, this AU only goes up to the end of Chapter 2.)

With Deltarune having come out a few days ago, is it possible for the Two-Faced Soul AU to be revived? Will we get to see Red absolutely shredding it on the guitar? Will Blue get beaten up with a hockey stick? Will both struggle to play a game within a game at the same time?

I can't really say for certain.

A lot has happened since I started the AU, and while it was fun sharing the experience my best friend and I had, a lot has happened in my life that slowly became updating the AU a chore. And given the state of the world right now and me doing my Master's degree, having the time to work on the AU would be outright impossible for me.

I will also admit I've....just kinda fallen out of love of the AU. It kinda got to the point where it got more popular than I expected, and I felt pressured to force myself to work on it so as not to disappoint people, (despite the fact I wanted to move onto new projects) and with little planning given only 2 chapters were available.

My best friend (the girl who's the irl person for Blue) and I plan on playing Chapter 3 and 4 together sometime for ourselves. If I get a hit of interest to make some deltarune art I may do something small, (again if I have the time) but I'm scared to touch it again given both Blue and I were doing it casually for fun and not as a mainstream deltarune AU.

TLDR: Likely no. Due to life events and shifting interests the AU won't be revived.

This pretty much sums up their personalities

what about a weird run variation

While a weird run/genocide run isn't canon to this AU, it does make you wonder what would happen if Blue was removed from the picture huh?

matching shirts for you and your bff

Blue's no good, terrible, babysitting session

[2facedsoulau]

God it took me freaking forever but I got the comic sketched up now and it's pending for Blue ReviewTM

[thelooniemoonie]

yknow I had to do it to them

[2facedsoulau]

Since Red and Blue did Undertale together when they were teenagers, has their play style or perspective change as they began adventuring through Deltarune, now that they are adults? Like has Red become more hardened, especially post genocide run.

Ps. I love your content

Sorta! They both have indeed mellowed out now that they've grown up, but more or less their play styles have been the same, if not improved! (Although they both still have their issues...but at least they're less volatile. Tbh it's kinda hard to make a comparison because no adult humans exist in either Undertale or Deltarune akdjhg)

Blue has definitely become more stable since Undertale, to be honest if we're comparing on a run-by-run basis she's become more bold, with her previous interactions in Undertale being more cautious/anxious but more confident when interacting in Deltarune. She's really excited about exploring the world itself, really, (especially since. yknow. she's not really in any direct danger of monsters taking her soul this time) She's still....wondering, what exactly is going on? But that's not really stopping her from having fun.

Red has also mellowed out, they're less of a lil shit surprisingly enough, but still a lil shit and since they do carry forward their experiences from Undertale, Red is more experienced and balanced when approaching battles, especially so since they don't want Blue to get hurt along with them. While they did adventure together in Undertale, moments where Red was alone they kinda just threw themselves at danger until shit worked or crumbled under force. (perhaps it's also due to Kris being here now that they're not doing that as often?) Hardened of course, but they're... having second thoughts about their genocide run. And if it was worth it.

[thelooniemoonie]

okay so my drawing tablet is not turning on and not connecting to my computer despite it working literally last night.

I'm gonna see if I can get some technical support but if it turns out i need to replace it uh

let's just say don't expect any digital art from me for the next while

[thelooniemoonie]

update: good news, i managed to troubleshoot my tablet and got it to work again! turns out the USB port was being weird and wacom's cables just are really picky.

Oh yeah in case it isn't obvious the next comic will be Blue-centered. The script for it is currently done, but we're just giving a heads up on the progress.

[2facedsoulau]

Imagine if we go to a doctor in a future chapter and the doc says something like “Alright physically, you’re healthy. Mentally, inconclusive but looks like depression. Spiritually, it seems you’ve got Split Soul Disorder. I can recommend a therapist but until then say hi to your new friend.”

I mean there are hospitals in Hometown, but given they can't quite catch something is wrongTM with Kris I doubt it, but that would be hilarious to imagine

"Yeah you're technically fine, but you're gonna be hearing some new voices in your head and you're running on QWOP controls. Would you like a prescription for Ibuprofen?"

Is there anything better than the ruined knight aesthetic? To me its the coolest form of visual storytelling, chipped armor, tattered cloth or cape, broken weapon stained with the blood of countless foes, arrows or weapons left sticking in the armor, just the best

[2facedsoulau]

Not gonna lie the name-flavored tea item in the game is pretty cool that it makes you wonder if there can be player-flavored teas? But since their flavor also changes depending on the person/relationship of the person drinking it it's fun playing around with the idea

"Kris" flavored tea:

Red thinks it tastes like some sort of spiced tea? Like cinnamon or cardamom. Blue thinks it tastes like Toriel's apple pie. Both of them agree it does taste kinda watered down and could use some more sugar. (Blue +40 HP, Red +50 HP)

"Suzie" flavored tea:

Blue thinks it tastes like a grape slushie! Red thinks it tastes like a monster energy drink. (Blue +120 HP, Red +120 HP)

"Ralsei" flavored tea:

Blue thinks it tastes like a vanilla milkshake. Red thinks it tastes like marshmallow milkshake. Both of them agree it's a little too sweet. (Blue +60 HP, Red +50 HP)

"Noelle" flavored tea:

Blue thinks it tastes like hot chocolate. Red think it's mint mocha coffee. (Blue +60 HP, Red +70 HP)

"Red" flavored tea:

Blue thinks it tastes like the best cup of coffee. ([phone] HP)

Kris has no comment. Just that it seems to warm them up from the inside. (+70 HP)

Noelle thinks it's a watered down chai tea, but recognizes the aftertaste is similar to Kris' tea. (+25 HP)

Other characters simply taste water.

"Blue" flavored tea:

Red thinks it tastes like the boba they had when they were a kid. ([phone] HP)

Kris has no comment. It seems to be quite refreshing. (+60 HP)

Noelle thinks it's a watered down cold citrus soda, but recognizes the aftertaste is similar to Kris' tea. (+25 HP)

Other characters simply taste water.
