the final headcount for the Deltarune Secret Boss group is so funny because they are all so wildly different.

as someone who’s lost far too many friends, this is more right to the reality- dramatic final moments are rarer than you’d think, what’s more common is not knowing it’s your last message- being too busy to dig or press and then you hear about it later, once it’s long since done
As someone who works in a DV Shelter, I've always viewed abstraction in TADC less as death and more as psychological collapse.
When people experience prolonged stress, trauma, isolation, or hopelessness, they can lose their sense of self. Abstraction feels like a metaphor for reaching a point where the mind can no longer sustain the pain it's carrying.
What stands out to me is Pomni's empathy. In trauma-informed practice, connection is often a protective factor. Pomni doesn't necessarily solve anyone's problems, but she consistently tries to understand others and see the person beneath their behavior.
Sometimes empathy isn't about fixing someone. It's about helping them feel seen before they reach their breaking point, and continue to even afterwards.
