"A:if thats the case then why is frisk the only red trait other than chara who we know has a bit of a psychopathic personality to start with. So wouldn't chara be hate since that's there personality trait at the end of geno or are we just supposed to assume chara is still a blank slate even after they killed everything that exists."

When I said "blank", I meant it from Rousseau's point of view. Like, an unborn baby. Not a child who already has personality traits. And red isn' t "neutral" as in NO trait, but no trait does result in red becoming dominant, as it becomes the only trait there is. As I said before, whichever trait is the greatest wins-Red's default only because by definition, you MUST have at least SOME determination. Otherwise, you're not alive. You can still have traits and stay red, as long as you're more determined than you are anything else. Like Frisk and Chara.

"when would we know were just stuck the same way forever if we change or don't change our trait? I mean you guys established that once a trait always a trait based off the dominant trait. Well, don't human beings get REALY mad or REALY sad or REALLY kind sometimes,making that the dominant trait."

It's more the case of "It doesn't matter if you have other traits, unless that trait BEATS OUT the other traits." Also, "mad" and "sad" aren't actual traits. As for "kindness", it's less how one is on a short burst, and rather, what their current, consistent nature is. In order for a SOUL trait to "change", you'd have to change your entire personality, and possibly way of life! Yeah, there's a reason why that doesn't happen much.

C:"if were just able to change the easy we think and act then wouldn't that right there be abolishing the whole theory on soul trait Bering on dominant emotions and if so then that would prove that its based on fighting style. And if not then wouldn't the whole fighting style theory be abolished anyways?"

It's not emotions. It's our consistent personality traits. In Frisk's case, it's determination, something they're filled with across their entire journey. Fighting styles can be an extension of that.

D:"if fighting style is the dominant theory than wouldn't my fighting style change based off what mood I'm in? Or is frisk just whatevs all the Tim when they fight?"

It's less "Whatever", and more that they're filled more with determination than anything else. As I said over and over again, 'the most abundant trait wins.
