To wildkitten:

"SORRY, THAT WAS POORLY WORDED. WHY DOES CHARA CONTROL YOU (KINDA) IN GENOCIDE BUT NOT REALLY IN PACIFIST? I THOUGHT CHARA WOULD GET MAD AT YOU IF YOU DIDN'T KILL ANYBODY? AND BE HAPPY IF YOU KILLED PEOPLE?"

Ohh okay. You're thinking of the fanon idea that Chara takes over Frisk's body in Genocide and fores them to kill. That's not the case, Chara explicitly states they're partners. And they don't want to murder everyone from the beginning - it's actually quite the opposite in a lot of checks, "Don't pick on him", "Greater Dog just wants affection" "(Toriel) Knows best for you", "This monster is too sensitive to fight...", they actually make excuses for some of them fighting you because they think monsters can't do anything wrong. "It's so excited it thinks fighting is just play."

'''if chara is the narrator, which I'm assuming is the case, then they actually seem like a fairly nice and funny person, because i love the narrations. but who killed asgore, flowey, and sans? also, it seems kind of uncleear whether chara is happy or not when you do genocide, and espescially if you do pacifist?'''

"SO LAUGHING IT OFF IS A THEME OF UNDERTALE? WHY DIDN'T ASRIEL DO IT?"

Not everyone's going to do the same thing. Frisk doesn't either.

'''i never realized that was a theme. it's pretty cool.'''

"SO I'M ASSUMING CHARA HAD 0 LOVE WHEN SHE WAS IN THE GRAVE?"

Their name is on the stat screen, so assuming it's their stats they had 1 LV, which Sans says is the minimum.

'''wait a minute, when you exit the ruins on a pacifist run, flowey says "you didn't kill anyone THIS time." obviously he means chara, but this assumes he must of killed someone. right?'''

"THAT'S NOT WHAT MABIAN SAID" ...What did Mabian say?

that flowey solves none of the puzzles

EDIT: "also i just realized, whether you spare everyone or kill everyone (but one monster), alphys has the same reaction either way when you enter her lab. and when you kill everything, monsters evacuate? that doesn't make sense"

I KNOW RIGHT THAT MAKES NO SENSE, you can literally have been genocide until like monster kid and Alphys's still like "yeah I was really rooting for you!"
