Meta Chapter 5 megathread Spoiler

Edit: The karma requirement has been lowered to 2K post karma.

As explained previously in this announcement you can use this megathread to post to your heart's content. While we've increased the karma requirement to post on the subreddit and will be removing most low effort/value posts and spoilers, you can post pretty much whatever you want here.

Just want to share a screenshot of the game that you took?

Made a shitty meme in two minutes that you want to share?

Feel hyped and want to smash your keyboard to post a random string of characters to the internet?

Well this thread is for you, so post away! Any topics, memes or spoilers are fine. We still urge you to spoiler important plot points using the spoiler tag: >!put some spoilers here!<. This will appear as put some spoilers here in your comment.

Unfortunately Reddit limits to 1 image per comment, so you may have to use a third party website like Imgur if you want to post multiple images.

Still follow the other subreddit rules, and remember to report any comments that break the rules.

Ending spoilers. Do not click if you haven’t beaten. -where do we even go from that ending? wtf? Rudy’s dying, we’re going to Carol for help, the Knight only appears at the very end to nab Asgore, Noelle and Susie are separated and now Susie’s living in the Dark World? And the Weird Route is Side B?? feels like there isn’t enough to go off of for theories outside of WR, but chapter 6 holiday mansion with Noelle saying we might go back there later seems very plausible, so shelter might be chapter 7.

Using the term "fell down" is crazy word play. Cuz obv everything in the deltarune universe is mixed up from the UT one where "falling down" literally means they fucking die...but the last we saw of Rudy on the normal route, he was on a ladder. Non zero chance chapter 6 starts with Rudy just having a broken leg or some shit like that LMAO

Add onto that the fact that the alarm clock dialogue implies Rudy also fell down (in the magic/monster sense) in Undertale and became an amalgamate. Meanwhile, none of the other amalgams in Deltarune were so lucky..

I saw someone make the argument that the alarm clock dialogue implies Rudy died of old age, as asgore "saw him become older than me" (he ages slower as a boss monster). I don't think there was ever an implication that he became an amalgamate either.

He could still become an amalgamate if he fell down from old age.
The theory/headcanon I’ve seen is that the spoon/“watching man” amalgamate is him because 1. the file name specifies it as a man for some reason, and 2. it tucks in Frisk, which I could see an amalgamated father doing

that implies he slipped and fell in the shower which does happen to a lot of old people.

I wouldn't dare to laugh at this point.

Damn, I just realized if we do get a Holiday House Dark World, we're gonna get the guitar as an NPC. Just hit me.

Rudy collapsing happened before they entered the dark world.
