(flowey originally got his name from asgore during a past run, and kept it out of remembrance for who is father used to be)
Yes mister I-killed-literally-everyone-multiple-times-because-I-was-bored, you sure have a right to judge someone for something like that.
I don’t think the comic was setting Flowey up as someone with the moral high ground; I think Frisk was just saying that it was okay for Flowey to be severely pained and upset over the man his father turned out to be, hence “my feelings about him are mixed, too.” Frisk is acknowledging the goodness of Asgore with that sentence while also acknowledging the pretty horrifying at the same time.
Children look up to their parents more than anyone. If this comic series is about Flowey gaining his (for lack of a better phrase) humanity back, then it stands to reason that he now suddenly has to deal with the fact that his father murdered six children, at least one of whom was murdered in retaliation for Asriel’s death, and if circumstances were different, may have even murdered his own sibling, the one who Flowey was closer to than anyone else until Frisk came along. That’s an agonizing realization. And he’s definitely looking at this from that point of view; “Good dads aren’t supposed to hurt kids.” Not good people. Good dads.
I don’t think Asgore is morally bankrupt (that would, in fact, be Flowey for 98% of the game) but he also has some very heavy things to answer to, more than just about anyone else. and both the in-game characters and the players are allowed to decide how far their forgiveness of him goes. This comic is exploring how far Flowey is currently willing to extend forgiveness and is more of a character study than a callout comic for Asgore’s sins.
i love this commentary! this comic received mixed responses (as i’d expected) but i think this explains my thought process behind it well
HUGE SHOUTOUT TO DARE BRITT FOR PUTTING PASTA IN HER WACOM PEN AND SAVING MY LIFE
(yes the picture above is done using a spagetti for a nib and it works)
yes it bloody works, we can finally be poor artists
A recent meme post actually confirmed you can use spagetti as nibs for your wacom and it works just fine! it actually fucking works and wow.
By far, this is one of the best life hacks an artist could find.
yes, this means you won’t have to worry about buying new nibs for your wacom, horray!
THIS NEEDS A BOOST
WHAT THE FUCK
This pen is ancient
They don’t sell nibs for it anymore and I’m SCREAMING
Pressure works
TILT WORKS (!!!??!!!)
REBLOG TO SAVE A LIFE
HOW ABOUT WE DON’T?
Taken from user Cinnabees:
Guys, I keep seeing that post going around about putting uncooked spaghetti noodles in your tablet pen to work as replacement nibs, and I know OP means well and stuff, but PLEASE DON’T DO THAT.
Pasta, no matter how smooth it is, is still a product of dry flour, and rubbing it down on a surface creates micro-sized grit that will scratch up your screen faster than any tablet nib, and they wear down even faster, so it won’t even be worth it. Also, it’s so brittle, if it breaks inside the pen, it will be difficult to clean it out.
Tablet nibs are a pain to replace and buy, but buying a 10 pack of them for $7-8 on Amazon is going to be a better choice than having to pay a heftier sum to repair a scratched up tablet surface/screen.
Spread this post if you can, because I’d really hate to see someone accidentally damage their tablets this way.
YEAH HOLY SHIT DO NOT FUCKING DO THIS TO YOUR SCREEN TABLETS UNLESS YOU WANT DEAD PIXELS AND MICRO SCRATCHES ALL OVER YOUR SCREEN CREATING ACTUAL DEAD ZONES WHERE YOUR PEN WONT ACTUALLY DRAW ANYMORE like that’s a fucking LIGHTNING FAST way to destroy your 1000-3000$ piece of hardware
