"It's Toby Fox's Twitter. If it's meant to be joking, it'd be obvious. The reply is obviously joking, whereas the parent is not. Toby Fox tends to joke a lot on his Twitter, but it's always more or less obvious when it is."

The "lol"doesn't prove anything,it could mean literally anything.As i said perhaps he's mocking the player's lack of imagination.But something that's certain is that any name is valid since he said that it's perfectly okay to name them after your cat

"When?"

Well in the tweet about naming them,other than that he refuse to talk about this character at all

"Exactly. But simply misleading the player about which character they control can be done without allowing the fallen child to be named,"

How??In many rpgs you name the character you control,Toby just wanted to subvert the trope and mislead us.

"o it's clearly meant to be because the fallen child's character fully depends on the player and their interpretation because it it's a representation of the player and their interpretation."

Depending on someone # being them.After all,Gaster is completely us to interpretaion to,does that mean he's the player??

And perhaps we should name Chara because Chara took another name when they fell in the underground as it was a new start for them or maybe it's simply to mislead us

'Having your actions directly attributed to your name forces a mental correlation between the two."

"its me [Name](...)It was you who pushed everything to its edge,it was you who led the world to it's destruction"

See?The character you name clearly atrubute all wrongs doings towards a geno player.They distance themselves with the player.

"Why do criminals often wear masks? Why do people act differently on the internet when they're anonymous? Because if their words and actions aren't associated with their own identity, they don't need to worry about their identity being associated with words and actions that society deems immoral, and they can act as they please without guilt."

Again the character you name directly accuse you for doing all bad stuff and causing the world's destruction,so it's irevelant.Plus Frisk is our avatar in the game,the one that lack of personality,race,etc..just to allow projectiom

" Just like Nastablook,Ice wolf,monster kid,Frisk,mad dummy's cousin etc...

(the point of that last bit was just to express annoyance with all the people in this thread referring to them with she/her pronouns)"

That's not my concern since i always use gender neutral pronouns for them
