Can't believe I went from hating that man to loving him. Toby I love your beautiful mind for combining anime twink with sitcom dad's cool friend. I remembered this iconic gif and had to recreate with Flowery.

I have a video file right here. If you want to use this in videos, streams, forums, etc. You can, just remember to credit if it's for a video. If you put this into gen AI, I will kick your ass. Somehow I'll find a way to do it.

i want to do a more proper analysis of this because it interests me as a potential aspect of a transfem egg ralsei read, but i feel like ralsei's hatred of flowery is being read as a very direct "because he sucks," and while i don't think it's inaccurate to say that he sucks, i don't think that's entirely why ralsei hates him. flowery is a darkner(-adjacent) who projects self-actualization very confidently, and ralsei tragically sees this as shameful and thusly feels a strong sense of shame regarding their own want for self-actualization. hating flowery, from what i can tell, is very much a way of expressing self-loathing for ralsei. and there's some irony here, too; flowery is a mirror to ralsei in a lot of other ways, devoted wholly to the lightners above himself, trapped in an archetype that he seems to take on largely for the approval of an authority figure who doesn't like that he's become a person, unable to truly live for himself. ralsei doesn't recognize this because flowery doesn't recognize this, and because they see only the want for self-actualization they feel so ashamed of, but his ending is a reflection of what their ending could be if they let their own fate consume them; in the end, only a simple object. it's interesting to me that in the end, for reasons ralsei cannot identify, ralsei finds themselves crying for his sake.

[tvlandofficiall]

this dynamic between the two of them; ralsei projecting their shame and self-loathing onto flowery's confidence in his ability to defy his own fate (and flowery intentionally provoking ralsei to try and get them to see his way); is fairly self-evident, i think;

but i think this scene with orange hints at it, too. ralsei is pretty mean to orange and even tries to rope susie in on it, and i think this is because they're carrying this same mindset over into their conversation with her.

[tvlandofficiall]

strangled by their roles as the lightners' servants. wanting, at the same time, to actualize outside of that, to do what darkners(-adjacent) aren't meant to do. flowery being unaware of just how little of their own he and his friends have, ralsei seeing the little of their own flowery and his friends do have and finding even that to be too much to bear, too sacrilegious. dramatic irony, ect. these two sicken me.

[tvlandofficiall]

because their dynamic has taken over my mind as of late; flowery is occasionally insensitive to ralsei, especially when he's first getting to know them. he shoves them aside repeatedly and makes them cover their face to get them to see his way; that asgore doesn't need to be reminded of the past; and to try and show them that there are some things they shouldn't take lying down.

but like everything about him, this insensitive behavior is a mirror reflecting ralsei. after all, ralsei has the exact same habit of doing insensitive things to others to try and make their point, and it really, really shows, especially in earlier chapters. ralsei's insistence on following fate is clearly flawed compared to flowery's far more altruistic proposition of fate-defiance, but the point still stands. they're not as different from one another as they think.

(this isn't at all to frame either of them as saints incapable of harm nor irredeemable monsters, mind, just to further establish a shared quirk that i think adds to the read of flowery as an embodiment of both the want for self-actualization ralsei loathes themselves for and everything about their mindset and the hierarchy they live under that they don't realize is only strangling them. flowery dies before he can have a chance to realize that he can never truly help ralsei so long as he's strangled similarly by his need to be the kind of person asgore would approve of; with any luck, ralsei won't suffer the same fate.)
