did u get the name kris from deltarune when it first came out , because if you did ...... real 🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️
wheezes-- I didn't, actually! Kris having the same name as me was like.. a complete surprise to me.
I did choose the name for myself, pulled it from my deadname, about 15 years ago in middle school bc I was tired of my birthname being constantly misspelled and mispronounced by teachers and family, etc. Worked out when i started transitioning 4 years later lul.
When Deltarune first came out as "survey program" in 2018, I remember getting it downloaded the day of since I've been a fan of Undertale since the week it came out. I've been here in the trenches man lmao. my art from that time is still on this blog.
but I didn't play it right away. I wasn't heavily active on social media at the time so I wasn't worried about spoilers. Didn't see the need to rush. What actually prompted me to open it and start, however, was a couple mutuals/friends of mine messaging me the next morning stuff like "wow I can't believe you're in toby fox's new game lol". I figured at the time they meant like, a character that reminded them of me bc it happens lmao.
so, I played it. I went through the fakeout character creator. I named my vessel "Kris" and I got a response like "Interesting..." and it asked me to name myself which I didn't. wasn't really expecting so I was like okay I'm also Kris and I got a response like "Of course, of course..."
so it opens with the whole bit of throwing away your design bc your choices dont matter, etc etc. then the opening bit happens with "your name is.... Kris!"
... it still didn't click for me. (i'm so serious).
at the time I thought it was some weird fakeout?? bc i'd expect anything from mr. fox. I went about my whole play session that day thinking "oh so it kept my name anyway. alright. sure."
it wasn't until I went through twitter later and started seeing the fanart and discussions finally being posted after the 24 hours of silence toby requested that I was like........... Oh. huh. (i realized as well that that's what my friends had meant earlier.)
so, yeah. no, I've always been Kris. and I'm very cheesed to have Kris Dreemurr be my name twin. so, that's why you'll most likely see me call them "twin" a lot, bc it's a habit now. heh.
TL; DR: I've been Kris since I was 14 and Kris Dreemurr having the same name as me was a delightful surprise and I love sharing a name with them #MyTwin
