Gaming I hate Trans Ralsei Theory

Post image

Even if we ignore the numerous times he has been referred to as he/him, a boy, a guy, a dude, a prince, we must also realize that just because he isn't traditionally masculine, he isn't transmasc (or transfem)

There is no Easter Bunny, there is no Tooth Fairy, and there is no Princess from the Dark.

'Oh but Deltarune is all about breaking free from fate' I can hear exactly two of you say in your heads (I can read your mind,) I know one thing, and it's that I can't break free from the fate of going through Undertale 2 and finding that both routes lead to the same goddamn ending of Gaster Friend Inside Me Penumbra Phantasm Big Shot World Revolving Jarona Shadow Crystal Always Bet On Papyrus Knight.

ZHOTAN!

(Also, I'm not transphobic, before you try to spew that label onto me)

Not why Tralsei theorists think he's trans

Oops! Seems you dropped some context. Here it is:

Because the blue/pink drink lines up with the trans flag, and he immediately gets called "Princess" afterwards. While the entire conversation is about breaking the prophecy, which states that he's a "Prince".

So what if blue/pink isn't trans exclusive? It can still imply the trans community. And Ralsei's "Princess" was given a boop and its own text box.

More than one thing can be relevant to a character. Also that kinda impostor syndrome is very similar to dysphoria.

Also, what does that final line mean? Genuinely. Kris is not in that scene.

"Kris he's our main character"

I don't care that you don't think the theory is true. I care that you threw away context and reduced it to "He likes blue/pink drink so he's trans!" and "He's not traditionally masculine so he's trans!"

You can't just dismiss all evidence then go "See! Told you their only reason was cause he's feminine!"

Literally. You can't. Even if all evidence pops out of existence, it would just be nothing. Cause that isn't a reason at all

Source: Chapter 1 and 2. Nobody theorized Ralsei was trans then, cause none of the evidence existed yet

Literally all evidence for any theory could mean multiple things.

Do you even know what a theory is? If any evidence meant one thing, it wouldn't be a theory! It would be undisputed canon
