History WMG / DeltaruneTheLightners

In his stream, Toby said "What is the deal with this place anyway? Why does he have bushes in the freezer like ice cream?". One column of Asgore's freezers is bigger than the others and covered with plants. Asgore blocks it with his body, preventing Kris from accessing it. Noelle sometimes opens the freezers in Sans' shop, connecting Dess' disappearance to freezers. Berdly's frozen corpse does not turn to dust, so a monster body hidden in a freezer wouldn't dust. Asgore is hiding Dess' body in that freezer. Perhaps he even is hiding a living Dess in a Walt Disney-style arrangement.

There's a book about how to take care of humans in the library, so there could be multiple humans in the town. It's never mentioned that the Dreemurrs were the only people to take it out. It also wouldn't make sense for a public library to buy a book which only one family in the entire town has interest in. Noelle was scared when Kris once faked bleeding while another monster in the town is implied to be unfamiliar with blood, so it could be that Noelle knew what blood was from Dess. Dess is implied to be somewhat of an {{Expy}} of [[VideoGame/EarthBound Ness]] (who is human), her (nick)name is [[WebVideo/GameTheory only one letter removed from "Ness"]], and they both are examples of BatterUp. In ''Undertale'', Sans calls Dess "the antlered girl's sister", implying that Dess doesn't have antlers herself. Noelle sometimes freezes like when she is scared when staring at Sans' freezers, which implies Dess died from frost and that Noelle was present at her death. It also would make sense that Dess would be declared missing instead of dead if her soul was absorbed, since human souls can't be destroyed or decay unlike corpses, so a dead human's soul must be absorbed or hidden for a NeverFoundTheBody scenario to occur. Noelle is inexplicably powerful in the dark world and monsters with a human soul are very powerful. At one point in the Snowgrave route, Kris and Noelle are filled with power at the save points instead of just Kris, which implies that Noelle also has some of the power that allows Kris to save, which could be human levels of determination like in ''Undertale'' or another power that comes from human souls. Noelle seems to be possessed by something at times in [=SnowGrave=] and the Queen mentions her having "awakened", which could mean that Dess's soul is dormant inside Noelle but is awakening through killing, perhaps similar to Chara in ''Undertale''.

It's implied that the troubles of the Dark Worlds will spill over into the Lightners' world - particularly with Undyn complaining that the town is too peaceful and quiet; a sentiment that is usually followed by a disaster in a BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor kind of way. Kris, Susie, Noel and Birdly, plus anyone else the party picks up in the meantime will get to battle in full view of everyone, in the process proving that Kris can be a leader, Susie can be compassionate and Noel can be brave. In a comedic moment after their victory, Alphys will declare that all four of them get passing grades on their collective group project. Birdly is confused, and Alphys explains that the propose of group projects is to foster cooperation and teamwork, which the four of them clearly show they'd learned by how easily they came together to save everyone. Kris and Noel are pleased, Susie is amazed (maybe asking what that 'little cross' next to the A is about), and Birdly - who had essentially wasted time actually doing the school project - is annoyed.

The setup of Kris unleashing a Dark Fountain inside their house at the end of Chapter 3, where the only other people there are Toriel and Susie, seems to imply that Kris has no qualms with putting his mother in close proximity to the Dark World. This may mean that Toriel will have a greater focus in Chapter 3, and will likely get a Dark World redesign like Noelle and Berdly did. Though, whether or not she could be a player character like Noelle, a menu character like Lancer and Rouxls Kaard, or an enemy character like Berdly remains to be seen.

[[WMG: Catty and Catti's dad is the King.]]
If you look at King's sprites, you'll notice that his right arm is never visible (It's visible in Kanotynes' original card deck, but given how different Queen looks, it's probably safe to assume it's not canon). The cat sisters' dad has no right arm. This theory practically writes itself.
