what is your personal take on frisk-centric angst? I love a good creechur silly goofy frisk, I hold them very dear, but then I think abt an unattended child who falls into a mountain and? Has nobody to go home to after escaping?? It would seem? And I think ohh... poor kiddo.....
yes yes yes YES YES. listen i understand people who want their faves coddled and cozed and who feel bad when they suffer, but i am of the olde schoole of torture your darlings so i eat that shit up!!!! though instead of frisk-centric i usually prefer to see their angst through the lenses of another character acting as an observer. sans or toriel or papyrus, or flowey and chara too.
i like to hc that frisk was homeless before climbing mt ebott. not orphaned, their parents are still out there, but either they were abandoned or they ran away from home. if chara's abuse was more actice/violent, then frisk's was passive, out of neglect rather than brute force.
honestly it's been a while since i did anything with the sans rp blog, but the way me and tali set the conflict up for that version of frisk was that because of their neglect, they had no mental concept (or well, experience) of what a parent is supposed to be. that concept is abstract to them, if not completely alien, so they approach toriel being their mom kinda... laterally? like "okay, I'm gonna call you mom. now, to figure out what that means to me..."
which went to add to Toriel's own gripes and baggage with HER motherhood, and sans' own issues with commitment and responsibility. disfunctional little family <3 but the best part was, that didn't stop frisk from being creechur and silly goofy! they're not realities that have to contradict each other, that can just be their personality. besides, being funny and charismatic is a very useful trait to have when you're on your own out there.
they're a little street rascal, like someone out of the irregulars from the sherlock holmes books. that's the way i like to see them :]
