"Your dominant trait, what you have the most of, is what determines your color. If you're 40% Kind, 30% Determined, 25% Brave, and 5% Justice, kindness is your trait."

You are making the assumption that the traits mix. State that as your head canon next time.

"By the way, the other humans remind her of Chara. You know, another human who fell into the RUINS, climbed the moutain despite (or because) of the legends, and was brought into HOME?"

I don't think Chara was Toriel's "friend". Toriel speaks of the other children the same way the other characters speak of us when we talk to them after resetting, after we befriend them. And since there's nothing to counter this theory, I'd say it's a point made, and should be taken into consideration as the base lore. Just like the things such as Flowey being Asriel (lots of indirect evidence, plus his own words), Chara having a red soul (the coffins), Alphys starting the DT experiments (there's a theory that attributes this to Gaster, so not even this is a solid assumption in the fandom). But we gotta base our further research on something, isn't that right?

"and he tells us not to reset:Unless Chara really is the one who reset"

That entire segment of the game is really sketchy and we should not jump into conclusions when analyzing it.

"then how was Frisk, and ONLY Frisk, able to overake Flowey's determination?"

You said this is assuming the power isn't exclusive to the underground, which I don't find relevant. But nevermind that. Here's my counterclaim: they never did. Omega Flowey lost, because the souls rebelled against him and Asriel lost, because we convinced him to stop fighting and embrace his true identity.

True, the fact that we can load by closing the game is still a thing in the final battle, but as I postulated above, it might be because Asriel didn't save in that fight. That is currently the simplest explanation for this fact.

"giving Frisk the determination of TWO SOULs"

Correction, Chara has no soul. This has been clearly proven in the game, by stating that a human cannot absorb another human soul, and by the plot hole of Asgore not taking this soul away (as he did with the others), that would arise, if this were true (and I don't think Toriel hid it away from him from the very beginning, as I see no motive for such action, at that time at least).

"By the way, red text indicates mood."

Could be, but mood is also indicated by other colors. In contrast, this seems to be an exception for the ball game. And examining the "hole" is the only place where the narrator speaks red (if I recall correctly), so maybe it's because of the ball game, not because of a mood swing.

"Is the Pink trait of Fear a real thing after all?"

I know what you're hinting at. But boy, are you bad at it! Pink is not fear in that AU. Read the lore, man xD

"Also, if they gained their own trait, and red was no trait, their SOUL color should change to reflect that. If they become kind, their SOUL should turn green. Hmm, why doesn't it?"

Well, DID they ever gain their own trait? Based on this statement of yours, it would imply they didn't.

Other than these points, I agree with you.

Also, I am voiding all of our previous discussions. I grew tired of them.
