Noone smacks THE FLUFFYESt Goat BOY only for 32$ plushie, that's what [Best salesman since 1997] for.
But still, Chara Narrator is kinda big difference from what we have in Deltarune. Chara were more of an growing influence the more violent we were.
Kris on the other hand is... i wanna say little fucker, but I'll say "flawed" narrator.
They have their own "show of character " with each chapter, chapter 4 is basically biggest we saw them being themselves somewhat. We have moments where they disobey, change or do something else with commands we give (I'm not counting snowgrave , it's something i don't wanna touch at all but still, in there we have more influence on the world and more of Kris's hatred and resentment towards us for our actions there).
...Ok to be fair i lost track of my thoughts in text above Erase all above, i kinda wanted point couple of things towards "Kris is flawed narrator" First is absence of narrative whatsoever in Noelle house when soul is stuffed in a gift box because soul itself can't narrate, only observe.
Second is most of chapter 4 save points text change's after first interaction or when we try to unlock the "knights door" but all Kriss does is turning the knobe.
I fully agree with the fact that Kris decides the specifics of how we perform an action. Like that's just straight up canon with the door and with how often they can resist a choice you make. And yes! I also agree that we lose our ability to interact with the world without Kris! That's a super interesting thing, and I've been thinking about that a lot. We are pretty helpless without a vessel! It was one of the big things I was trying to emphasize during this fic.
I guess my hangups on Kris being the narrator (or anyone being the narrator for that matter) is that some of the narration doesn't feel like their current opinions?? Of course, we don't KNOW that. The plushie thing feels wack considering how they will actively go against your wishes if you try to be mean to Ralsei. They clearly care about him in their actions, so it's weird the narration is a little mean there? Also Kris being spoken about in the third person whenever they perform an action rather than us feels odd to me.
I can see it being true! I wouldn't mind if it was true. I think I just try to only use theories I think I'm 100% certain on in my head. I'm a little wobbly on Narrator Kris at the moment, but I totally agree with everything else about their show of character.
I, personally, am 100% convinced that whomever the narrator is (if it is even someone diegetically), it's not Kris.
Number one, the narrations is incredibly dehumanizing of Kris, the narration really treats them as a unthinking vessel of ours.
Number two, that old Andrew Cunningham video really makes me think that the narrator is probably not a person in story at all, or if they are it's someone like Gaster.
