You also think Asgore had a crush on Rudy? Though i doubt you have much interest in it, im just surprised. Maybe i missed something in deltarune? I was not surprised by the fandom interpretation though
This interpretation actually comes from the Undertale Alarm Clock dialogue, with lines like "he... was my Rudolph. I ... was his santa." though it is corroborated by Rudy calling out Asgore as a fruit in Deltarune lol. That dialogue in the Alarm Clock already had everyone go "OH?" so, in this case, I don't actually think it's an overreach! It is also Funny. I don't feel this interpretation is exclusive To fandom goggles, I see Normal Gamer Guys find it funny.
When any dialogue occurs, I think, "why was this placed here?"
It is present enough in Toby Fox's mind to occur across the scant interactions we have of these characters, so it feels worthy of note. I Think Toby loves this kind of sticky morass, especially with Asgore of all people who is wishy-washy in his decisionmaking. It enhances the dynamics for me, even if I'm not "interested in it" beyond the intrigue and how it adds to the perspective on relationships in a small town. The last thing I would want to see is 2 dads doing anything. But I respect.... ball....
