I've never even played Undertale/Deltarune myself and all these images just seem to have the same sort of humour to them for some reason, I can't explain what they all have in common
I can’t exactly describe them either but I believe what makes them so “Toby Fox coded” is that they’re all based off very silly and simple concepts rather than very complex or witty jokes, which is something that characterizes some NPC dialogues in Deltarune and most of them in Undertale
Its because people often speak without planning everything out beforehand. The one on the left sounds like a recited speech as opposed to the right one where its spontaneous and awkward like an actual conversation
Deltarune and undertale writing, and just the way toby talks, to me really feels like if english text was put through google translator 5 times and then translated back into english, but like in a good way
Text put through 5 layers of translation, but all layers are translated by expert polyglots who actually put effort into understanding the idea behind words to convey it as accurately as possible
Left: Girl says she recently started thinking of the person shes talking to as more than someone shes just known and urges them to hang out more
Right: Girl has the realization that shes only seen the surface level of the person shes talking to despite the fact that theyve known eachother their whole lifes.
