But okay, you won't agree with that. It says in the game that monsters can't absorb other monster souls. Humans can't absorb human souls. But flowey absorbed the souls of humans AND monsters. Therefore he is neither.

"ENTRY NUMBER 7

We'll need a vessel to wield the monster SOULs when the time comes.

After all, a monster cannot absorb the SOULs of other monsters.

Just as a human cannot absorb a human SOUL...

So then..." Ironically, I completely agree with your bit on Chara as I subscribe to the narrator Chara theory. Asriel's merge with the monsters was clearly imperfect as they began to influence his mind in a way the 6 human souls never did.
