So, I think Ralsei's persona is probably fake? In every other card suit, the creatures look the same. Lancer looks a lot like his dad, the King. The low and high tier diamond/heart enemies look alike, as do their respective kings (see image).
Ralsei does not - you can specifically see the King of Hearts here, who looks totally in line with the hearts archetype. Which is not Ralsei.
re: deltarune
I'm specifically noting hearts here, because Ralsei claims to be a prince, and wears heart iconography. His whole story of "I've lived here my entire life waiting for you" is shaky at best, and actually contradicts his own legend that "Three heroes appear at the world's end"
Also, I don't even think he's a Darkner:
re: deltarune
At the very least, I'd have expected the three kings to at least *recognise* him if he was a dark world prince, even if he's not actually a card suit.

Sorry if I'm being insufferable about this. But one more deltarune thread for the night: "Do not" and the removal of choice.
In UNDERTALE, the stabby ending ends with the choice to destroy all of existence ("ERASE") or not do that ("DO NOT").
But at this point, it doesn't actually matter what you choose - the First Human has already taken over. If you try to choose not to end the world, you get dialogue like "DO YOU THINK YOU'RE THE ONE IN CONTROL HERE" and it ends anyway
re: deltarune, undertale
@SomeEgrets hee, you don't need to worry about being insufferable
that's what's cool about cws--anyone can just glance and say "ahh, nah, not right now"
heck, you're not even posting to the local timeline
besides, it's fun to read. i played through both games, but never really got deep into speculation (minus some reading) which is why i've been blindsided when some of it turned out to be true
re: deltarune, undertale
@thingywott I do kind of wish there was a better place for this stuff, where it would maybe have a wider audience and contribute more to ongoing speculation/threads.
But like, without dealing with large internet rando communities, especially in games.
re: deltarune, undertale
@SomeEgrets maybe hashtags? because AFAIK, they aren't the spammy-looking things they are on twitter
i actually use one for dream journals!
alternatively, this stuff is probably fine on the local timelines too (actually, pretty much anything is, as long as it's tagged with a cw)
re: deltarune, undertale
@SomeEgrets that's fair!
i try to CW anything that's could negatively affect someone's mental state, spoilers, and things linking to twitter
i kinda just got a sense for it because i watch the local timeline too
re: deltarune, undertale
@thingywott yeah, my default privacy is set to "unlisted" because just, in general, I'm mostly here to interact with people I know. I'm not to keen on posting to a shared timeline by default.
Also helps because:
a) I'm not great at knowing what to CW, and when
b) worried about the twitter xposter posting a tweet that should have a CW, but twitter doesn't support those, so...
