So i don’t see how it’d be any different when it comes to Frisk and Chara, they both use they/them pronouns and Toby has never confirmed that their gender is up to the player. Just beacause they are refered to as they, doesn't mean that they are genderless. Napstablook has a 99.9% of being male, because they show no femininity. Frisk and Chara are were never confirmed to be non-binary, and Toby wants all of their traits to be decided by the player. Napstablook almost shows no signs at all of being either feminine or masculine. Besides, just because someone’s more masculine doesn’t mean that they’re a dude.. and yeah just because characters are refered to as they doesn’t mean they’re genderless BUT why would toby even make these characters that specifically use they/them pronouns if he intended for them to be male/female? Why wouldn’t he just use he/she pronouns if he didn’t intend for the characters to be non-binary? Of course nothing has been confirmed so i don’t see why people can’t just use the characters’ canon pronouns.
