Undertale, how I was brain blasted
Yeah I got into Undertale in late 2015 through comic dubs and playing the game myself and my life was changed forever. I honestly truly give it a lot of credit to the person I am now; it taught me a lot about kindness and created safety for me in a time when I very much did not understand how other people worked and got in trouble for it a LOT. Undertale was also the reason I became especially active in online spaces (outside google plus and roblox LOL), I made a tumblr account to interact with ask blogs and make my own and I met a lot of really cool people. Early on in a lot of my friendships in middle school, I connected with people through Undertale! My friends and I gave each other roles on discord assigning each other certain characters (I was Chara), and we would dub fan comics over voice chat on Skype LOLLL it was a lot of fun. I still absolutely love this game and I totally always will. It's very important to me I genuinely have no idea who I would be without it. My favorite character is Papyrus, his overwhelmingly positive demeanor and relentless belief in the good of others has always just made me really happy. He's so cool.

Deltarune, and Tenna
I played Deltarune the night it came out, Halloween 2018! it was the first time I did absolutely nothing for the holiday (don't remember why), and I was just fucking around on my computer when suddenly I saw everyone shouting about the survey. I installed it and wow! video game! Deltarune for a long time didn't really strike me the way Undertale did, which makes sense since it was just starting out as opposed to an entire released game. and it still isn't done! In all honesty, even after chapters 3 and 4 came out I didn't pay them much mind because I had a bunch of stuff going on, my interest had been much more casual. BUT, one of my friends began to absolutely love tenna and it ended up hitting me as well. I absolutely fucking love tenna. his joy and whimsy make me incredibly happy and he's really fucking funny. his mental state and struggles as someone deeply neglected and the ways he acts out as a result of this hit me personally in a way that makes me really wanna curl up on the ground and scream. and I'm grateful! it's let me realize a lot of things about my own personal life that I've had a pretty bad habit of denying the reality of. I want wholehearted safety and kindness for tenna, I'm making it happen in my mind.
