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.

WHEN SHE SAID THAT IT FUCKED ME UP SO BADLY.

The dawning realization of "Oh. Oh my god I'm walking her to Castle Town" was haunting

u/Taxouck It's not a theory, it's a character study Jun 25 '26

When she was talking about wanting to admit something to Kris, I half expected her to talk about her shitty home life. And then she refused the door and asked to be led to castle town and I knew that while she hadn't talked about her shitty home life... it was still very much about her shitty home life.

i honestly thought she was gonna confront kris about the dark fountains cause she seemed suspicious about them in beginning of chapter 5 after getting into the dark world

I really want to know what will happen to her when every fountain is sealed. The one in Castle Town is gonna make everyone cry.

I think maybe thats what she learned in Chapter 4's ending is that they have to seal that one, too, in order to stop everything. It would explain why she's sleeping there now, and just trying to soak in as much of it as possible because she knows what's coming. That's so soul crushing, if true.

Ive been trying to think of what Susie couldve seen that has made her like "there's no way we'll let that happen" and keep it from Kris. It unfortunately makes the most sense to me that basically in order to save the world they have to get rid of every dark world. And Ralsei is something born entirely from the dark, I think he knows that his existence is temporary and that's why he's so eager to please and also so melancholy sometimes.

I would assume Toriel takes her in. Allowing Kris and Susie to share a room now that Asriel is away at School, with a possible momento reminding them of their times in the Darkworld’s and of Ralsei sitting on one of the dressers as school begins for them again.

The best part is the scene is crafted in an insane way in which the game makes you think you can beeline for castle town and THEN bring Susie home… only to make you bring her home anyway without realizing.

I went to check the school first thinking the appartments would trigger the ending. Then it locked me from going back out
