Did you have trouble beating Muffet? I literally can't even beat her.
((UNDERTALE SPOILERS))
It’s a battle that if you want to mercy her, you just have to survive long enough and the battle will end on its own.
HOWEVER: You can end the battle on the first turn if you saved a Spider Donut or Spider Cider from the ruins- eat it on your first turn and she’ll realize you don’t hate spiders and you can skip the battle. Otherwise, you just have to survive until a spider from the ruins walks in and lets her know you’re not a dick. ovo;
* It makes a joke about spaghetti. It hates its own joke. * It tidies up the place, then immediately scatters everything again. * Its eyes flicker as it wraps its arms around itself. * It works very hard at giving up.
It can’t be blood because Monsters don’t bleed. While it’s possible it’s ketchup I don’t think so.
He’s bleeding DETERMINATION.
We all know that in the true lab, a DTE was built to take DETERMINATION out of the human souls, but we never got to actually SEE what DETERMINATION concentrate looks like.
Let’s take a look at the ball game.
These are the colors of the six souls that died before. Each soul color is linked to a specific trait. Chara and Frisk’s soul are achingly similar, despite having completely different goals and perspectives. So what links them together?
DETERMINATION.
And what color is Frisk and Chara’s souls?
RED.
Determination has a very emphasized point in the game. Being able to persist after death(even for a short while), being able to influence the world, being able to go as far as manipulate SAVEs and time itself. Seeing as how the kids are all dead, it’s obvious that they didn’t have enough DETERMINATION(or a high enough concentration) to keep fighting, and we don’t know if they were even able to SAVE or not.
Flowey alone was able to do this until Frisk came along, and Chara was able to destroy the entire world once they had full control of Frisk’s body. Frisk was able to save everyone. Undyne was able to become The Undying.
and Sans is capable of manipulating time or/space. You see this in the game in all paths, even though no one’s sure how.
My theory: Sans and Gaster are a lot more involved with the DETERMINATION experiments than we believed.
Sans and Gaster’s connection is obvious(even if we don’t know just HOW they are fully yet) so I’m not gonna bother with that, instead focus on the True Lab logs.
We have no proof that Alphys made the blueprints for the DTE. There is nothing before leading up to it and nothing about it. Just “using the blueprints.” Where DID she get them anyway? And why is Entry 17 all in WingDings?
And why does the DTE not only look like Omega Flowey, but also have a vague resemblance to the top of a certain weapon we all know and link to Sans?
A concept design perhaps of one of Gaster’s plans that he never got to fulfill and moved on to use it in a different project?
While Gaster doesn’t get credit for naming the soul power, I wouldn’t be surprised if he died during or before his own breakthrough with it. While Sans, and maybe even Papyrus, were caught in the crossfire. Perhaps were even experiments themselves?
After all, Papyrus DID manage to last long enough to monologue even after you gave him a killing blow. Who knows what Papyrus was capable of if he wasn’t so nice and loving
