Floweys line “you get used to it” UGH. I feel that line could apply to a lot of things- a place not “being a place for a flower”. he is certainly othered from everyone else in the game because of his abilities. He’s a monster, a cog in the machine, that “gained sentience” in the way he could control the world before Frisk.
THE AMALGAMATION REVEAL HAD ME AUDIBLY GASP LMAO I really really like the use of memory head in this already, theres so much to discuss- BEST BELIEVE IM GONNA TALK MORE LATER, but first the stuff I just have little notes on
Flowey would have said “WHAT THE FUCK” If he was brave enough.
Flowey immediately starting a fight is really interesting narratively just cause it really fits with his character, but also stylistically cause the black and white just looks really really cool… Reminds me of when Wingdings summoned those bones way back when
Oh yes and then the EXPRESSIONS here are just so incredible, Papyrus taking them away, the distressed, annoyed, anxious, worried- CRACK of a smile is SO GREAT- AUUUGGGGGHGHHH
Come on, Papyrus! Flowey’s just showing Memory Head his friendliness pellets :( calm down dude…
I can feel Papyrus as a whole getting worse the longer they spend down here and im kinda worried he’s gonna explode at some point from holding it all in 😭 speaking of Papyrus, his whole thing about the amalgamates and not calling them “things” is so in character.
This frame with Papyrus embracing the gaster-blaster-esc form IT MAKES ME EMOTIONAL, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY IT MAKES ME THINK. SYMBOLISM!!! Im still so curious how Gaster Blasters are gonna be involved cause- seriously, huh??? What is Wingdings gonna walk in one day and be like “look what God ordered”
I actually hope thats the case cause that’d be really funny-
Trying to get into Wingdings’ head/his plan here…What is his purpose…in making an artificial attack. Because its called a Gaster Blaster im gonna also assume its gonna be waaaaaayyyyy later till ANY of this is answered, BUT I LIKE SPECULATING! THIS IS NOT A SECRET!
ALSO ALLOW ME TO TAKE TIME TO ACKNOWLEDGE STILL, WHERE DID THAT NAME EVEN COME FROM??? He’s so trans coded for that
Papyrus’ reaction to the garbage noise got an AUDIBLE SOUND OUT OF ME- IM INSANE
Once AGAIN. More examples of Papyrus just getting more and more uneasy- I CANT IMAGINE HE’S FEELING ANY BETTER ABOUT THE THING THAT HAPPENS NEXT WHICH IS THE THING I HAVE A LOT TO SAY ABOUT!!!
The fact that the memory head can communicate through phones is…its a lot to think about. Especially when considering the fact that Wingdings cant do that. Theyre SWAPPED?? “Its a real get together.” Brother. what the fuck are you talking about. Thats a really good line and it makes me very interested but WHAT ARE YOUTALKINGABOUT
Im also going kinda crazy, how in the prologue, we very clearly established that Papyrus had a phone- THATS SUCH TASTY STORYTELLING RIGHT THERE.
Thats all I really have in terms of pages. MEMORY HEAD WISE I HAVNT A CLUE- WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT I’m RIDICULOUSLY EXCITED for the next pages because HOW is this going to unfold??? Theres so many interesting factors- Papyrus being very uneasy, Flowey being completely ignorant to the situation, and Memory Head.. what do they have to say? its a real get together?? are they like…talking about how there hasn’t been any people- let alone TWO down here for quite some time, so its like making a sarcastic remark…?
Its also kinda hilariously a pun. Get together? they’re…together? and also constantly falling apart? HA???
Just- okay. What. Is With. The Garbage. SOUND. They’re all melty like Gaster has proved to be, but that sound is also a Wingdings thing right? maybe? I mean we only saw the tape the way we did because we were from the perspective of Alphys, not a skeleton, so I suppose we’re seeing this from Floweys perspective now?
WAIT HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE SO IF IM CORRECT IN THAT THEN PAPYRUS UNDERSTOOD THE GARBAGE NOISE? Wait but then why did he act surprised when they could understand it through the phone?
GARBAGE NOISE. AUGH. HOW DO YOU WORK- ON A SCALE FROM PAPYRUS TO GASTER WHERE DO YOU WING YOUR DING???
I’m going to throw all of that speculation down a laundry shaft and forget about it like I forget my favorite t shirts are down there. DOESNT MATTER RN CAUSE WHAT MATTERS IS THE PHONE TRANSLATION SHITS
It’d be so funny if Sans called while all of this was happening LMAO WAIT
Okay im just unscripted yapping at this point- I HAVE A LOT OF THOUGHTS AND THIS TIME, 0 CONFIDENT ANSWERS- WHATS UP WITH ME
In conclusion. Papyrus. You make me sad. Flowey. You. Memory Head. I love you already.
i mean like this picture and the memoryhead in general.
I did notice the vague Papyrus shape of the memory head a long time ago, I WONDER IF I CAN FIND A 17 HERE-
Well the bad memory is already related to 17 so I have no free lore to give, I've tried counting the faces on memory head but it depends on what counts as a face and there's no specific number that stands out.
The idea that Jevil and Spamton are there is fun, though!
