fear me mortals, for it is my day of birth
This is Toby Fox’s website and we’re just living on it. For more than seven years, his games have cast a spell on Tumblr, stealing the hearts of fans with their winning combination of storytelling, innovative gameplay, and characters filled with heart and determination. Our first look at Toby’s world of monsters and humans came in 2015 when Undertale was released. We learned the meaning of mercy and that while talking through conflict might not be the easiest path, it’s always the right one. When the first chapter of Deltarune came out in 2018, absolute chaos ensued. We met Kris, Susie, and Ralsei and set off on a brand new adventure where you fell in love with the Undertale universe all over again.
The second chapter came as a complete surprise and was one of the best gifts Tumblr received in the past year. You immediately latched onto the continuation of some of the best lore in gaming and memed the living heck out of it. You also spammed our dashes with a tiny little man in pink and yellow sunglasses—so much so that he ended up becoming the #1 video game character on all of Tumblr this year. Spamton had a chance to become a [[big shot!]] and, boy, did he take it.
And he wasn’t the only new character Deltarune threw into the mix. As a game with a combat system based almost entirely (if you’re playing correctly) on social interactions, its characters are key. They’re relatable and make you want to root for them. Even, and often especially, for the bad guys. We can almost hear you yelling, “I can fix him!” into the void, and we believe you! Remember that one time you talked about the Deltarune villain, Queen, so much you skewed the tag data for one of the biggest bands of all time and the actual Queen of England? We sure do. And when Noelle Holiday joined the party, your team was finally complete.
This year marked the first anniversary of Deltarune’s second chapter, and you celebrated with every post type Tumblr has to offer. You survived the Tumblr Sexyman poll and the Spamton Sweepstakes, and for that, you all deserve the shiniest gold ribbon.
All of this to say that Toby Fox wins Tumblr. Undertale, for Tumblr, was a total cultural reset, and its impact is still felt even seven years later. It first appeared on our weekly video games list way back on September 21, 2015, just days after the game’s release—and it has been on every single list but one since then. So we’ve always known that Deltarune would find a loving home on Tumblr, and it truly has been so loved.
it’s the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century.
you can only reblog this today.
i've been reading through this and i
i feel a sense of impending doom
Well, Hubert, there's a first time for everything! Including seeing the Petrov side of the castle!
“Indeed... Dmitri always freaked out whenever I asked if I could visit. He didn’t want me to come over, for some odd reason. We just usually hung out in the royal garden, which my family owns.” Hubert explained quietly as he observed the other side of the castle. There were painted portraits here and there of Dmitri’s father and mother but no Dmitri, as if he was completely disregarded or removed. Neither parent looked happy, although it was surprisingly dark as Hubert progressed forward. It was hard to see the details of the portraits, even if Hubert stopped to observe them closely.
Jack observed the portraits closely. With a flap of his golden wings, he ascended slightly into the air so he could get closer to one of the portraits. Dmitri’s father looked outright angry, with glasses tucked snugly over the brim of his nose and his eyes narrowed as though staring at the observers. He had black hair and pale skin with a thick beard that curled over his mouth. Dmitri’s mother had clothing that showed a lot of her skin but covered just enough where it wasn’t unsightly. She had long hair that flowed over her shoulders, although some of her hair was tied messily back by a red ribbon. She wore cherry lipstick and almost looked... amused? Jack didn’t like their faces already.
When the spirit noticed Hubert had continued onward, Jack quickly landed to follow and stay abreast of Hubert.
Me apathetically scrolling passed all the iOS censorship disaster discussion knowing full well nothing will make me abandon this website as my base social media platform in favor of subjecting myself to the cognitohazard that is Twitter
//hey y'all who still care abt this account! check out moni and his stuff!! trust me it's super good and i love it-
Hey guys. In between my chapters, I want to write little stories for content for you guys so you don’t have to wait so long. This next chapter (chapter 3) is going to be super long so it’ll be a long ass while.
Any ideas for stuff to write? Specifically about my ocs since I don’t write about fandoms necessarily in case it’s out of character.
There’s a list of ocs I could write about. The ones linked together are separated by ‘/‘ :
Xander/Lazuli
Irri/Levac
Irri/mystery oc
Adharan/Serapth (Serapth is nicknamed “Hades”)
Folmar/Nym/Sana
Ester
Kotori
Nesira
Ianu/Khufu
When a friend sends this to you, you know youve done something right
