Your thoughts on a human that thinks they're worthless?

For some reason Tumblr WOULD NOT let me post the reply to this, so I’m doing it this way @briarwyn

I chose the Frisk boy!

Yeah, I want to ask who is Edgar, Vargas, Scriabin, and the boy in your latest comic? I believed that this is/was a bog about the Handplates AU.

Edgar and Squee are from an indie 90s comic called Johnny the Homicidal Maniac by Jhonen Vasquez! Although really, most of the stuff I draw with them is from a fic I’m writing called Vargas, which is also where Scriabin comes from.

This blog is for anything I feel like posting, it doesn’t really have any kind of unifying theme other than whatever I’m interested in drawing/writing/creating at the time. Sometimes it’s Handplates or Undertale in general, sometimes it’s Vargas, or L4D OCs, or Ace Attorney, or Half-Life, or Mother 3, or any number of the many many fandoms I’ve gone in and out of over the years. If you just want Handplates stuff, you can follow it on comicfury, or look in the Deviantart folder for all the little side comics and such, or just only look at the handplates tag on here.

Would DeltaRune Chapter 2's Cyber-Queen happen to be Lancer's mother, by any chance? I was hoping to see more of Jevil in Chapter 2, I was disappointed. If we players ever do get to see DeltaRune Papyrus, he might be so different than the Undertale version of him. He could be a 12 year old skinny eyeglasses wearing nerd.

I do think Queen is Lancer's mom, or GirlDad. She knows Spade King, and she did say she would take care of Lancer because she is his mother.

It was left kinda ambiguous at the end, but Lancer and Spade King both accepted her as Lancer's new parent regardless, so yeah she's Lancer's mom.

Also off topic, but Lancer keeps collecting parents who are blue. I wouldn't be surprised if Sans ended up on the list later, either as Lancer's brother or uncle or Lazy Dad.

And yeah no Jevil :/

Spamton mentions clowns in his dialogue, so at least we got a few Jevil references. I hope the secret bosses do become recurring characters later on though. It seems like a waste since they're connected to Gaster. The items they drop might become more relevant later on in the story.

Jevil's speech about the Queen returning was also correct.. I didn't think he literally meant a Darkner called Queen though ff.

I don't really expect Papyrus to be the same as his UT self since everyone (besides Sans) has changed. Papyrus has also been inside his house for two days in a row. He seems less physically active than his Undertale counterpart (or maybe he's busy moving boxes).

But I am in deniallll of Papyrus being a preteen. Especially with most of the Undertale cast being aged up. I'm more leaning on him being a teenager since Deltarune is possibly a prequel to UT. I know its definitely, definitely possible Papyrus is a preteen. . . but then idk why Sans would want Kris to befriend his brother when there's other monsters in Papyrus's age range.

Chara, how do you feel about veggies, either cooked or raw?

I LIKE THEM MOST STEAMED WITH A LITTLE SALT.

In all this time, has Our Ciel or Real Ciel met, or have been introduced to their grandparents? Where are the grandparents? Are children as familiar with their grandparents in the Victorian era, as they are in the modern era?

The grandparents

Claudia/Cloudia died in 1866, about 9.5yrs before the twins were born. I think the twins have met their paternal grandfather, but they don’t know it’s him... since I believe Cedric K. Ros— is Undertaker. Our earl definitely doesn’t know it, and I don’t think real Ciel does either... considering how he asks Undertaker to be his butler... and calls Undertaker “useless” for not knowing how to run an estate.

Rachel’s parents seem to exist only as the parents of Rachel and Angelina... and as an explanation for how the girls inherited their hair colors. We have no idea if the twins met their maternal grandparents. Possibly when the twins were very young, but it might not be important to the story.

There’s a good chance that Rachel’s parents are gone. Otherwise, you might expect them to pop up from time to time. They might have had Rachel and Angelina a bit later in life (hard to tell from what little we see); they might have had poor health. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Life expectancy wasn’t terribly high then, and we don’t know what their lives were like.

Were they even in the peerage? Both girls might have married “up”. Baron is the lowest title, and earl is two steps up. If they were not in the peerage, they might have kept to themselves and simply felt pleased with their accomplishment to marry their daughters into noble families.

Ch10 is the only time we see the person who is supposed to be Rachel’s father. He had arranged to introduce both of the girls to Vincent Phantomhive, meaning Rachel didn’t introduce Vincent to her parents... which suggests that their father was looking to marry his daughters “up” in society. It was common to marry the daughters off in order of birth, but Angelina apparently thought she had a chance, once Vincent gave her a compliment.

Hard to tell from the panel, but he’s supposed to have red hair, like Angelina. Their mother has never been shown, we just know that Rachel takes after her appearance.

The only clue that we might have about their status in society is they must have servants, and the servants call Angelina “Lady”.

Perhaps their father was a Baron or Viscount. But it was possible to have servants even if you were not in the peerage. Take a merchant like Harold West into consideration.

We know their parents both lived long enough for Angelina to get her medical license, but only because she did so against their wishes.

This would have been even more looked down upon if they were in the peerage, but they could have been against their daughter becoming a doctor, either way.

I’m not sure whether they had ever intended to marry her off, like they did Rachel, but she did end up marrying a man of her own choosing. We don’t know whether her parents were still alive by then. Perhaps not. If they were alive, they were probably just happy to see her married at all.

But I’m getting off on a tangent.

TL/DR:

If the twins ever met their maternal grandparents, we will likely never know, and we are to assume it’s unimportant.

They couldn’t meet their paternal grandmother... in her lifetime.... 👀

But I think they interact quite frequently with their paternal grandfather... and they just don’t know it.

Do you imagine Papyrus as a mastermind arch-villain?

Hm... maybe a particularly dramatic one! One that mostly does the villain thing for attention! And maybe to show off his puzzles to whatever hero shows up!

Is Finnian oaky? Where is he now?

He should be investigating at this orphanage in Norfolk, together with Snake.

I suspect we’ll get to see what they’re up to after Bard’s investigation in the sanatorium is over. But if Bard’s current case takes as long as Mey-Rin’s it might take a while before we see Finny and Snake again. ;^^
