Either Grillby Has A Really Long Lifespan, Or My Crack Theory That It Actually HASNT Been That Long Between

either Grillby has a really long lifespan, or my crack theory that it actually HASN’T been that long between each human’s fall/death and everyone in the Underground just has a terrible perception of time (like how the day in the Underground we fell felt really long) and anyways in this essay i will-

Based off the Undertale lore about Grillby that was recently released as of this writing. Can be found here: https://toby.fangamer.com/comics/grillbys/

As for if Grillby can live THAT long? I did have to ask around about that but @under-lore pointed out to me that there is merch saying that Grillby’s was established 200X. And we know Chara fell in the underground in 201X. Thanks again Underlore!: https://www.fangamer.com/products/undertale-grillbys-mug

But toby tweeted that merch aint canon soooo…..(shrugs) Also here’s a close up picture of the two kids who built Grillby’s Snowman.

Edit: Wow! I didn’t think I get this many likes and reblogs for this. Thank you all so much!  I actually do a lot of Undertale (and Deltarune) arts so if you can, I would love it if you would check out my other stuff: [Masterpost Link] 

I also created an Undertale comic that takes place after the post-pacifist ending of Undertale : [LINK]

worst part is if i ever acquire minors i’ll probably do this

love how parents and adults get frustrated at their kids for not understanding some reference from their childhood and act like it’s the kid’s fault for never learning what that is lmao

POV: you’re about to make aventurine cry

NO ONE knows how to use thou/thee/thy/thine and i need to see that change if ur going to keep making “talking like a medieval peasant” jokes. /lh

They play the same roles as I/me/my/mine. In modern english, we use “you” for both the subject and the direct object/object of preposition/etc, so it’s difficult to compare “thou” to “you”.

So the trick is this: if you are trying to turn something Olde, first turn every “you” into first-person and then replace it like so:

“I” →  “thou”

“Me” →  “thee”

“My” →  “thy”

“Mine” →  “thine”

Let’s suppose we had the sentences “You have a cow. He gave it to you. It is your cow. The cow is yours”.

We could first imagine it in the first person-

“I have a cow. He gave it to me. It is my cow. The cow is mine”.

And then replace it-

“Thou hast a cow. He gave it to thee. It is thy cow. The cow is thine.”

The swapped AU would be so interesting. Aventurine seeking out (ex) Doctor Ratio because some of his old research could help with Aventurine’s. Ratio agrees to help if Aventurine beats him in a game. When Aven does beat him and learns of the situation, it activates Ratio’s drive for knowledge and understanding despite him swearing off such pursuits.

gambler ratio would lowkey get an obsession for kakavasha at first because of his luck, mentally noting every little thing he does to see what makes him click and eventually evolving into something more personal
