WAIT A SECOND. I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING THAT PROBABLY HAS NO IMPORTANCE AT ALL.

TLDR:

There's a lot of inconsistency between the fates of the fallen children and the fates of their shoes.

Full Version:

The Fallen Child with the Blue Soul probably doesn't have their shoes in the box in that room of Toriel's house in the Ruins, since the Ballet Shoes are actually found later on in Waterfall.

...Come to think of it, how did any on the kids' shoes end up in Toriel's house in the Ruins? Their coffins are all the way over in New Home. And Toriel says she can't keep a single child in the Ruins, so they all left the Ruins. Therefore, I believe there are only three major possibilities: 1) All of the kids (except the one with the Blue Soul) took off their shoes at Toriel's house and then for some reason continued through the rest of the Underground barefoot; 2) Most of the kids (potentially including the one with the Blue Soul) brought multiple pairs of shoes with them into the Underground; or 3) All of the kids (except the one with the Blue Soul, unless they brought multiple pairs of shoes), upon dying, had their souls absorbed by Asgore (or whatever he's storing the souls in), had their bodies put in the coffins in New Home, and had their shoes sent back to the Ruins, where they were put in that box. If the shoes were brought back to the Ruins, it must've been the work of either a ghost, a spider, Toriel, Flowey, or something/someone that can dig into the Ruins, because they are apparently the only things that can go in and out of the Ruins. But why would they do all that? Why must the kids' shoes be brought back? Or why would the kids leave barefoot? Or why would they bring multiple pairs of shoes?

...Friggin' shoes, man. This is why I wear slippers everywhere, like Sans. Also they're more comfy.
