Original Thread here. Making this as the Staff didn't remotely read my arguments, so I'll make this CRT so they'll be forced to read them this time.
The thing is that Frisk has now resistance to Soul Absorption due to them apparentely not being affected from Photoshop Flowey trying to absorb their SOUL with the "light" (link on the profile is broken so here's the fixed one), which seems pretty clear on-paper... if you do not look at the context.
The thing has several problems:
The arguments against this were made in the thread I linked, and are pretty poor in themselves. Let's see them all:
Plus is a massive reaching to say that, he only wanted to beat up Frisk over and over until they surrender and their control of the timeline gets to Asriel as he would be the one with higher DT if he won. Not such complicated shit, he already had the power to TRUE RESET after all.
Bonus: Asgore has this on his profile:
Official promotional material suggests that Asgore killing Frisk is one possible outcome
That's not canon, so yeet that from his AP justification, thank you.

The thing has several problems:
- Flowey has planned in advance to take just the 6 Human SOULs and the Monsterkind ones to achieve his true form, he never has involved Frisk in this.
- Flowey said he planned to use the power of 7 SOULs to play with Frisk forever.
- He implied that he could take Frisk's SOUL if he wanted to when he was Photoshop Flowey.
- The light he used to absorb the SOULs can be manipulated, as it literally was used to knock a door. That wouldn't have happened if it was automatic.
- A human explicitly needs to be defeated in order to take their SOUL, so of course Frisk was not affected from this.
- And most importantly, Asriel never said anything about "Chara" resisting his supposed soul succ.

- "Asriel planned to take Frisk's SOUL and then release it when his plan was achieved."

- "He could absorb the monsters without defeating them, meaning he'd be able to absorb Frisk's SOUL in a similar manner."
