Prophesized events will always happen, but there's no restriction on what happens before and after.
I am currently leaning towards the idea that Chapter 5 will be the 'end' of the prophecy and 6/7 will be us in our actual vessel saving the day. I think we are a rogue element messing with the timeline, the only reason we haven't already changed things significantly come Chapter 3 by determinationing The Knight is because our vessel is actively working against us to keep us on track. (Kris slash theory is real)
Kris will cage us at the end of CH 5 and cause the roaring, unwittingly letting us enter a dark world as our own vessel, giving us a chance to really break Deltarune wide open.
Gaster is on our side, don't forget. He WANTS us to change things. If there was only one ending it would squander all the set up.
Erm. Kris
is nonbinary? Consult the
47 citations, if you will. Boy, I bet you feel silly now, huh.
I will simply download the Kris pronouns he/him Nexus mod.
but what do you guys think?
Pretty unlikely since the player as an entity in universe has been a thing since Undertale. The thing with Kris is that some part of him DOES enjoy doing bad things / hurting people. This is reinforced all the time when people mention he is a fucking delinquent who bullied Noelle a lot specifically.
Some part of Kris DOES enjoy what is happening in Snowgrave, he likes pushing Noelle around, he likes manipulating her and scaring her, he always has. Him crashing out about it is twofold that he feels guilty about that AND that it's crossing over into seriously hurting her.
The person who calls Spamton when you visit his shop (as in possessing him) is Dess stuck in the dark. (The same person in the code)
Dess being lost in the code and apparently quite terrified and confused is a big reason I'm leaning more towards Rudy Knight these days.
Unless The Knight is Dess' physical form she is unlikely to be a villain and scared as fuck about being lost in the code, begging to be heard. More likely that Rudy and Kris are working together to save her.
