narrachara:

first off, wow, okay then, hello to you too. 

second off. i have never????? said that chara is completely innocent??? they’ve hurt a lot of people, yes. i know that they were willing to kill at least 6 humans. i know and fully admit that they manipulated Asriel into going with their plan + staying quiet about it. i know that asriel’s death is their fault. i know that the complete loss of hope in the underground is their fault. i know toriel leaving + her subsequent loneliness is their fault. i know that asgore having to kill 6 children to give his kingdom an ounce of hope is their fault. believe me. i know.

but they were a child. and i fully believe that they thought that what they were doing was right. they did it wrong. i’ll fully admit that. they were too young to be taking on that responsibility. but i also believe that they didn’t do it with a cruel intent. they weren’t intending for any of the above to happen. if their original purpose was to drain the underground of hope or to gain power or to kill every monster, they could have done it with a lot less pain. they could have easily killed the Boss Monsters, who obviously loved + trusted Chara, and then moved on to kill everyone else. but they didn’t. because that wasn’t their intent.

as for the deaths that occur in any no mercy run, yes, they are committed by chara. but not fully. the blame isn’t on them. it’s on the player, who is as much an influence + presence in this game as any of the characters. flowey addresses you directly and chara does the same at the end of a no mercy run. and here’s what chara has to say about being brought back from death:

it’s your influence on chara that turns them into a being bent on gaining power by killing every monster they can find. you woke them up, gave them a purpose. and they complete it. 

they even say –

honestly, even the game tells you that the blame is placed on you. you’re their PARTNER. at the absolute least, you, as the player, are equally to blame. chara is just a tool you used, a tool that became wrapped up in it’s mission.

and even that is shaky.

if you complete a second no mercy run, chara says this:

even the tool that you formed to complete this mission begins to question if murdering everyone, gaining power, is truly worth it.

tldr: chara has done some terrible things, but with either the right intentions or the wrong influences. have a good life.
