AutisticAnglophile chapter 5 . 6/25 Bruh. On the one hand I want to feel bad for Frisk, considering all she's been through, but on the other hand I can't help but think that maybe Chara had a point after all. She really can't help herself, and her nature will probably destroy the friendships/trust of anyone who gets close to her. I mean just imagine Frisk and Asriel right after their wedding. They go to Snowdin and have a wonderful time together, and then once Asriel goes to sleep Frisk decides to take a walk through the town and somehow manages to find a way to screw everything within the city limits. It's just not sustainable, at some point her and Asriel's relationship would definitely have fallen apart. Who knows, maybe that already happened in one of the reset timelines? This version of Frisk is a genuinely tragic character, she's like a leper. Someone who your heart breaks for, but at the same time know you can never save and shouldn't even try to save lest she drag you to hell with her. I can't even imagine what Sans is going to do when she finally corrupts Papyrus. This is just so dark, and so well written, and so thought provoking that I can't help but love it. |
Dragonjek chapter 5 . 7/10/2017 Yay! Frisk didn't do a death! And nice setup for Frans shipping. |
Dragonjek chapter 4 . 7/7/2017 Hm... nymphomania, it looks like. Considering how much self-loathing (to say nothing of the outside punishment!) she accrued over her activities and the ease of Chara's seduction (oh, how I wish that qualified as rape. But he never really blackmailed her or anything, just... reduced her self-esteem to the point that she'd even accept him), it doesn't sound like normal sexual urges. Damn old lady. If she'd given a damn about the kids, she'd have gotten Frisk some actual help-therapy, moderate libido-reducing medicine, etc. But then again, there will always be people who look at someone with a mental illness and see someone to shun. And the person with it has to be willing to accept help in the first place... which I doubt the following sicko ever would. And Chara is pretty clearly a psychopath. He understands how people work, can get into their heads to manipulate them, no empathy, easily angered or made jealous, shallow emotional attachments, flagrant dishonesty... almost a textbook case. Still, plenty have progressed to become regular, if somewhat cruel, members of society. I think he pretty clearly didn't love her-even leaving aside that killing who THEY love isn't remotely considerate of their feelings at all, the way he deliberately went about shattering every bit of positivity she managed to accrue over her stay in the Underground and callously killed off his own family (effectively hers by this point, as well!) to get her is even a bit worse than what you'd expect of a yandere's affection (sure, the murder would be there, but they'd verbally treat Frisk a lot nicer. For all the shit good that would do...). It looks like jealousy and possessiveness, an obsession (perhaps related to another disorder-mental illnesses often come in packages, causing or being related to one another) carried over from his time on the surface, perhaps? I would be interested in seeing why he fell down. Although I certainly want to know more about Frisk. This story already has such a terrible ending, I can't bear for it to become even worse (er, happiness-wise. Nothing to do with your writing). Chara probably isn't going to die in there, or he'll find a way to break out. He hasn't RESET yet, so it seems that Frisk has more determination at the moment (I hope. Otherwise this will just go on forever... although I wonder how she would. Determination to change? To survive? To defy Chara? To try to make up her perceived failing towards the Dreemurrs?). Would she be the one controlling and remembering the next RESET? |
