What Undertale means to you?

I am bitter sarcastic and nihilistic person. I have had a unique blend of good and bad things happen to me. I didn't have a happy family but my mom is the best mom in the world.(Better than goat mom.) And before I played undertale I met someone just like Chara. Well, not just like Chara I am projecting my feelings but still. She didn't really grow up happy and we shared many things in common. She is nice and sweet with the people she cares about. But she is also tough as nails if anyone bothered her. She treasures her friends dearly and would do anything for them. She also hated being betrayed...Oh lord if you did that no matter why you were dead to her...And above all no matter how bad things got she would always try to put on a strong face and laugh things off. We dated for years and we both had our depression issues. She even tried to take her own life twice but we pulled through and she even got out of depression a bit after that. We were quite happy until a car accident took her away from me. I couldn't even be mad at that point because that is just life's kinda funny. I was in a really bad place after that. I found out about undertale through the co-optional podcast. I personally really loved meta-narrative and forth wall breaking so I got it right away. I played it and I loved the game.(I only beat it once though. I got the TP ending and I stopped.) I didn't think much of it at the time but a while after when I was online reading the wikis and stuff that's when I found out about Chara. I dunno why but it just felt right. like something in my brain clicked. I begin writing fanfic and stuff about her. And it helps me cope with this. Again I might just be projecting how I feel. but I feel like she is with me when I write and imagine stuff. So yeah. Writing about undertale helps me cope with loss and issues.
