Toriel isn’t herself, and neither is the strange human man in the vest. She’s not aware of either of those things though - she’s only aware of the rotting zombie shambling up towards him.

She charges at it on all fours and knocks its head clean off in a single smack, then raises herself up and bellows.

Only then does she turn to the human, and speak.

“Foolish.”

Oh, great, another dork, is what Peridot would normally think about the strange black-haired man in the vest.

Oh, great, another dork! is what Super Peridot thinks about the strange black-haired man in the vest.

She flies down in front of him on her broom, as purple and cosmic as the rest of her outfit, and smiles smugly even by her standards, holding out a hand and causing a star to form in her palm.

“Hey, nerd. Want to see a magic trick?”

The Only House That’s Not On Fire (Yet) - Lemon Demon

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsUmFCosuU0

yeah yeah i know. i know. (disclaimer, most of the songs im pulling this are from... a pairing playlist.... so it is Tainted by that...) This actually came on a while back entirely randomly on spotify radio, and some part very quickly clicked. From what I’m reading from the song, it feels like it’s about making the best out of an undeniably bogged down and exhausted situation; picking out the little pieces. Some lines hit a note (haha), though it does tie heavily into my ridiculous and complicated pre-canon HCs. There’s the feeling of taking on an extremely different and artificial mantle for the sake of others; even if it’s uncomfortable and unnatural. Stuck doing something even though to signed yourself up for it; knowing that you could easily sever that tie and be free on your own; waiting for it to end, but knowing disaster’s coming along the way. Idk, there’s a lot from individual parts but I don’t feel like breaking everything down entirely ghghgh...

Get Rhythm by Johnny Cash

So the fun thing is, this song is actually referenced directly inside of Dead Cells itself- a quote from the song is the description for the Rhythm ‘n Bouzouki weapon, which is to say this is apparently what’s churning away in the machinations of Prisoner’s mind when he’s killing zombies with a guitar.

Taken at face value it seems inappropriately jaunty for someone who has quite frankly been through hell but considering Prisoner is the type to lie through the teeth he doesn’t even have anymore about how much of a problem he might be having this one landed its place on my inspiration track for the pure fact of this is basically Prisoner’s dissociating schadenfreude anthem.

(incidentally other songs of Cash’s fit more ‘sincerely’ for Prisoner, since it’s hardly like every one of them’s just a jaunty little guitar tune)

You might be in a horrible situation but absolutely nobody can stop you from having Johnny Cash stuck in your head I guess?

Death Cab for Cutie - No Sunlight

When I was young, lying in the grass I felt so safe in a warming bath Of sunlight Of sunlight.

Vast open sky Could do no harm Like an embrace From mother's arms In sunlight In sunlight.

With every year that came to pass More clouds appear until the sky went black And there was No sunlight, No sunlight. And there was No sunlight, No sunlight anymore.

A lot of people apply this to Undertale for rather obvious reasons, but I think it applies to Toriel specifically in a really sad way. “Like an embrace/from a mother’s arms” is especially a Toriel-relevant lyric, but just the idea that she has hidden herself away, deep underground, far from her ex-husband or her role as queen or anything else from her old life, to live in the past and watch her adopted children die over and over and over...

Well, it’s enough to make anyone cynical. She was a Lost Soul after all.
