TESTING TESTING 123
Did i finally make a pinned post? Possibly
My name is Elias though i also sometimes go by Fiddle or Fiddlesticks (among many other aliases).
Pronouns are He/Him. This page is used by a digital artist who enjoys uneasy horrors and nuanced fictional characters
My Artfight
HOLY SHIT WAIT. CAVE PAINTINGS DRAGON. everyone hold your horsies I will be back
hi. had dinner. it was really good I had a mustard incident. back to the dragon I hope you are all still holding your horsies for me
thank you for holding your horsies. now check this horsie out. almost burst into tears drawing this. felt like I was part of something. hi humanity!!!!!! let's make art together!
they're fine, don't worry. they're a deity of human survival. they are the joy of the hunt and the feast, they are the wonder of art and human connection, they are the stories on the wall. and they love humankind.
I imagine they can be as small as a horse or as big as a blue whale. they're impossibly graceful. spotting them in the far distance means your hunt will be easy and successful. they are as solid as rock but their fur is soft and warm like a boulder in the sun. only a few humans have ever met them face to face, and those who have are allowed to add their hand print to their tail.

CAN ANYONE HEAR ME???? WHY IS HIS TEETH SO DETAILED IN THE NEWSLETTER
Green + yellow + orange is a highly underrated colour combo
Look at her don't you love her
Angel Crystal theory
here is my stupid theory so you can make fun of me
We are the source of the shadow crystals:
(Jevil) all alone in our freedom, everyone else participants of our little game
(Neo) a body of our making, discarded, hope making it powerful, yet all alone in the abyss
(Knight) our power going against fate even if it can't change
(Gerson) the white pen of hope, our hope so bright, that it can override the dark
(pink) stuck with a body that does refuses to obey
The pure crystal is pure because it's whole
it's divine, our hope, our love just waiting for the right thing to shine bright
"Does it make sense to mourn something that never existed. Something that has never known love. Never known light or dark. Discarded before it even knew what it meant to be. To mourn what could have been is natural, What I am mourning now... simply cannot be."
The Relationship between Susie and the Player... (Deltarune Analysis)
I had a sudden realisation when Susie talks about her experience with piano. This scene is an obvious nod to Susie's experience with learning healing, but... I think there's another, far deeper meaning to this scene.
What Susie experienced with the piano... is actually EXACTLY what happens in that earlier Piano scene when you attempt to solve the puzzle yourself.
If you were to ever to do ANY attempt on the song to unlock the door... Kris makes sure to mess up your notes before you even have a chance to finish. They forbid you from playing. The same exact way Susie was forbidden to play.
And so they had someone else play. Someone better. Kris.
Susie describes her past experience with piano as an attempt to further connect with Kris. But ironically, Kris was the one who was better. The one who basically took over the inexperienced one after they were told they weren't allowed to play.
Kris never let's us get near the piano, and makes sure to always fumble up the notes, "A Concert For You."
Susie's experience isn't a parallel to Kris at all. It's a parallel to the Player.
And we further connect this to the Healing arc with Ralsei. Where Ralsei teaches Susie to heal, but never actually let's her do healing when it's actually needed.
In Ch 4, Kris allows us to play piano, but further prevents us from trying when it's truly needed or when it's something complex.
But this also shows us that not all things are so simple. Kris is someone that truly loves piano, so it makes sense that they don't want someone else in their body to command them to play, for Kris, playing piano is their freedom, and its not something that they want someone else to take.
...Yet at the same time, there's nothing wrong with you wanting to play, even if it sucks. Because maybe, just maybe, it might become someone else's freedom too.
Neither are in the wrong in this matter. Between Susie and the better piano player that took her place, and between the Player and Kris... no one is necessarily wrong here. Things here are a lot more complicated than that.
This isn't the first time where Susie's character is aligning closer to the Player than Kris and Ralsei, with her becoming the one to speak for us for certain things when we're unable to, such as her vocalising the frustration of having people keep secrets not long after Ralsei and Kris kept hiding secrets from the Player.
Also the fact that the Ch 4 extended scene where you struggle against Kris in Dess' closet has Susie accept BOTH Kris and the Player equally rather than preferring one side over the other. She just doesn't realise it's two seperate ppl at once.
Not to mention how the Player and Susie are actively synergizing with each other in the best way possible.
Susie is the only one whose abilities you can directly enhance midbattle. Rude Buster's dmg gets raised by z spam (ch 1 + 2) or z timing (ch 3 + 4). And her healing gets enhanced the more you allow her to heal.
And it just so happens that Gerson' fight is also essentially TRAINING THE PLAYER to use these mechanics. It teaches you the z mechanic to parry. It forces you to let Susie heal to enhance it. It wasn't just training for Susie. It was also training for YOU to learn how to work with Susie as a duo.
Its really funny cause Susie's heal isn't a "Prayer" like other healing spells. And yet, Susie's heal requires a higher being's interference to raise its effectiveness.
If you think abt it, both the Player and Susie are similar in the sense that we're both outsiders to the grand scheme of the narrative, and are both trying to figure out what the heck is even going on in this town. You fought Kris in Ch 4 to help Susie while Kris is working with the Knight.
Even though everything abt Susie should make her clash with us (her ability to override choices, ignore our commands), she's the one who is the most aligned to us in terms of how we feel and experience the events of the story, and she is the one whose dynamic with the Player, has been nothing but purely beneficial to each other.
Not many people fully analyse the relationships between the Player and other characters outside of Kris (and sometimes Noelle for Weird), and I think Susie's dynamic with the Player is one that should really be looked into.
I was right?!?
What the "Field of Pink and Gold" may each represent;
I wanted to figure out what the "Field of Pink and Gold" was actually referencing in this chapter if not the fat cat itself directly. The one and most abundant answer seems to be Mad Mew Mew (Pink) and Flowery (Gold) both being what the "Field of Pink and Yellow" was about.
And if the two of them were placed as a dichotomy that means that there should be a connection. And I think this here is it in the form of an old FRIEND theory that has gained a whole lot more sense in my eyes since then.
That being that FRIEND's Pink and Gold eyes represent two different concepts at the same time: VALUE and LOVE. Value in the sense of statistics and therefore the intricate knowledge of the world of Deltarune and Love in one's ability to form and understand the nature and power of bonds of love, family and friendship. And in this context Mew Mew and Flowey would be basically a Yin and Yang dichotomy of these two values.
Flowery would be rather obvious in how he constantly breaks and twists the mechanics of the game to his will as seen with all his maxed out Values/Stats and possesses deep knowledge of its mysteries.. While Mew Mew wholly lacks them on every level, despite her nature as a secret boss (which only emphasizes its absence).
And Mad Mew Mew in turn is a boss fight all about Love, her battle's mechanic is literally showering her with love until we get to go on a date with her and the main gist of her story is about her learning to accept the love of others but also love herself... Meanwhile Flowery's main struggle is that he fundamentally does not understand Love beyond a surface level.
He and the other flowers truly and genuinely love Asgore and want to repay him in his kindness... But do not understand his struggles, they do not understand why he cares about his work with his "conspiracy" and his family, if both make him experience "bad" emotions. Why doesn't Asgore just do "fun" things to feel "good" emotions? They are trying to make Asgore by giving him "happy" things and experiences without understanding what he truly wants... Because this is in the end, are just the dreams of a Flower.
And flowers only understand love through exclusively giving someone a gift.
More on the Noelle & Asriel/Flowey connection
Flowey and Noelle express similar frustrations that the people around them are video game characters.
Flowey exhausting all the dialogue options.
Noelle noticing townsfolk don't notice things they should.
Flowey & Noelle noticing everyone around them are locked into paths.
Both jaded from their self-awareness, with a human offering freedom.
FUCK.
I have a feeling that a titan's form depends on who summoned it, just as a darkner's does.
Titans are the fear of the dark given form.
The Roaring Knight summons a titan at the end of chapter 4. Is this what their fear of the dark looks like? ...because I don't know if it's just me, but this titan...
strongly resembles a tree.
Here are the titans from the prophecy, for comparison:
I've been reading way too much into everything about the Knight and one thing that immediately caught my attention was the way it poses. I think everybody agrees that its weapon is either Dess' bat or Carol's katana but both of those are supposed to be used with both hands so the poses don't match the way either of them are used. People are joking about auramaxxing but genuinely, it seems almost like it's a dance. And then it hit me. We know that Dess plays like. every sport. She's particularly associated with baseball and hockey (thanks Kris for beating me up with a hockey stick) and we know for a fact she has at least two pairs of ice skates - one in her closet and one under her bed.
So what if the skates aren't just for hockey. What if she also does figure skating? Look at the Knight's poses next to figure skaters.
And obviously ice skating is a winter sport so it really matches the Holiday theme.
this legit made me stop believing in knight papyrus
