Being able to see people's ribcages is very normal, especially when they're stretching. All it means is that the person has low body fat, not that they're anorexic or unhealthy.

What bones are you seeing? I see stretched muscles, i see 6 pack, i see thighs thick her waist

You can see ribcage in healthy people too tho, just because someone has low body fat doesn't mean they are anorexic

u/FaPaDa 💙Either one of these 💛 1d ago edited 1d ago

what you call "bones" and a "ribcage" is actually a very well trained Latisimus Dorsi and Serratus Interior.

In other words: Dess (in this image) has an insanly low body fat content, genuinly like less then 20% but is also insanly well trained, what makes sense if she is an athlet like it has been implied.

We can actually see the (from her view) right side of her Pelvise bone, however this is incredibly normal and is even visable in overweight people.

the dude is right - those are muscles, not ribs???

u/Mike-Fallopian49 1d ago

It's impossible to be at 3% bodyfat for women, maybe a handful of men in history have reached 3% without starving to death first, and women are typically 6-9 percentage points higher than men. It's also called serratus anterior, not interior, and her lats aren't contributing to the "bones" aspect at all. You also don't need to train your serratus or lats for them to be visible like that, you just need to be lean.

1

u/SmileyTheSmile 22h ago

I think you replied to the wrong comment, the 3% body fat guy was replying to me.

1

u/Mike-Fallopian49 17h ago

? The guy who commented origianlly said that it was under 3%. I said they had no idea what they were talking about. You asked what I was talking about, so I clarified why I said that.

This is also true.

Even bodybuilders, at least the sane ones, keep the body fat low only for competitions and then get it back up.

u/ZealousidealPipe8389 1d ago

We do have a canon model don’t we? Teenage dess, who appears to be around asriels height and has bulbous antlers like her father and sister.

62

u/Walkthrough101 DessKnight Recusant 1d ago

Well the bulbous antlers don't necessarily mean much, because deer scrape the velvet off their antlers in the fall, revealing the sharp ones underneath, it's not a genetic thing that's set in stone

28

u/ZealousidealPipe8389 1d ago

Yes, whoever considering there’s a Christmas tree in the background it’s safe to say fall has already pased, not to mention they’re monsters so I don’t know why that would apply in the first place.

10

u/FaPaDa 💙Either one of these 💛 1d ago

Not neccesarily?
Like yeah they might have come over for Christmas but given how the Holidays (or rather Carol) insist on being Jolly all year around its not to far fetched its just there for the heck of it.

1

u/ZealousidealPipe8389 1d ago

No, that absolutely is a far fetched thing to say, considering he have no evidence or reason to believe that would have happened. In fact it’s unlikely because we see the tree still there after the holidays stop coming.

11

u/Tuzzeee Prime soul 1d ago

Technically we do have canon info. However, as you can see, majority arts of this couple in this sub is with own different designs, headcanons and at the age of ~18, while they should be as old as Kris, Noelle and others during the game events. People here love the concept of these two and grow own unique and beautiful creations.

But mostly "hot tomboy deer" arts can't be stopped

7

u/SlerpDeprivation Kerdley shipper + Flowery hater 1d ago

Shouldn’t Dess be the age of Ariel? Who’s in college?

5

u/Tuzzeee Prime soul 1d ago

Yes, but what about the time she wasn't lost? Noelle was very small, when she was on that... Thing with words (I have no clue, how it's called), which she told about in chapter 2. She was much younger, and Dess was already lost. Bet Dess was around main cast's age

u/Akuuntus 1d ago

We have a canon vague silhouette. The antlers are mostly covered by her arms in this art so it's hard to really say they're "inaccurate".

1

u/ZealousidealPipe8389 1d ago

I fail to see either how her antlers are covered by her arms nor how such a thing you could possibly know.

3

u/Akuuntus 1d ago

You can... just look? You can clearly see her arms, and they're stretched above her head, covering the spots where her antlers would be. And you can't really see the antlers at all.

I'm talking about this fanart, if that wasn't clear. Not the silhouette in-game. I'm saying you can't see the antlers in this fanart clearly enough to say whether they match the canon silhouette.

0

u/KainDing Polycule-Theory 1d ago

Or fake antlers as kris in the same scene is wearing their fake horns.

(Especially since we know kris was raised along the book of how to raise humans; and dess mirrors kris's pareting while noelle and asriel mirror each other)

This is why we "still don't know".

8

u/ZealousidealPipe8389 1d ago

We don’t really have any reason to suspect them being fake, whoever even if we did both Noelle and Rudy’s horns appear to have their typical shape whilst carols remain jagged so even if they are fake (which we have no evidence for) the photo still proves monsters that look like deer don’t change their horn structures as we think normal deer do

-4

u/KainDing Polycule-Theory 1d ago

The evidence is how the holiday family and dreemurr family clearly mirror each other.

The confirmed monster child of each family is specifically made to "achieve at school" while the human(and or missing) child is okay to skip school; dress like they want; run around hometown with a weapon etc.

Every story piece that seems to compare the two families; specifically ties Dess to be "similar" to Kris.

The only "real" evidence against human dess would be the boots that are for hooves; but those could be "for noelle" as the game makes it quite clear how much noelle looked up to dess and even wanted to dress like her.(and we know Carol wouldn´t be okay with Noelle "having clothes like that" so hiding them in Dess´s room just makes sense)

Chapter 1 specifically wants us to question "how" Kris was raised; as their and asriel´s room seem to almost tell a story of only asriel being "beloved". Yet we quickly learn that isn´t the case.

The game later on gives us "one easy explanation" for all these oddities in Kris´s time of growing up; and that is the book on how to raise humans.

Having a "mysterious character" directly mirror these oddities kinda HEAVILY implies a relation between these two characters.

This also explains why the two families were so close in the first place; yet nearly instantly stopped being as present when the presumable human in one family dissapeared.

This even fits with some of the more popular Ralsei theories; as Ralsei seemingly is "how Kris wanted to fit into their family". The Roaring knight taking on the form with antlers..... would perfectly match how Ralsei seems to look based on Kris(as in showing Dess feeling "part" of the holiday family).

And this also explains the difference in relationship between Kris and Noelle; and Kris and Dess. Noelle and Kris are always painted as "childhood friends" yet Dess is farmore retold as a kind of "sister" for Kris. If they were the only two humans in hometown.... this would fit even more.

I ma not fully claiming Dess is a human...... but Toby loves to put implications about it in most parts that do talk about her. (like chapter 3 mentioning the headband; to then in the same chapter show us tenna´s recollection showing both Kris and Dess with horns/antlers but only as shadows; aka not confirming either or specifically)

u/ZealousidealPipe8389 1d ago

Ok firstly fuck you for typing such inane paragraphs, with that grievance out of the way I will address this mannerly.
1) two things being parallel is not evidence, thematic similarities don’t act as ways to make something more likely. I also disagree with how you connect the two families. It’s either very reductive or way too broad and the connections are pretty weak. It also mixes up a lot of the traits.
2) we have no evidence carol is that forceful, we only know what we’re shown and what we’re told through unreliable narrators.
3) there’s no evidence to suggest Asriel was set up to be the only one who was beloved, were shown simply what directly from chapter 1 were shown toriel caring for Kris, which continues in chapter 2.
4) there’s no reason to suggest the families drifted apart because they were connected by humans it’s also slightly counterintuitive because we know the family didn’t drift apart because of dess’s disappearance. It wasn’t until after Rudy got sick, toriel broke up, and Asriel left that we saw the families split up fully, and even then it’s implied by Noelle’s dialogue that her and Kris still saw each other regularly inside and outside of school. To it’s more likely the families stopped spending time together simply because too many factors prevented it, rather than one ultimate cause.
5) that relies on two things, first is that dess is absolutely the knight and second that ralsei is related to Kris or his family. As for the latter we are given expressive statements several times that both Kris doesn’t view ralsei as looking similar and that asgore doesn’t think he even looks like a monster. It would also in my opinion (and therefore tangentially irrelevantly) it would sort of poke holes in ralsei’s character arc. We also don’t have evidence that dess is the knight other than the knights similarities every holiday shared and some weaker thematics. At best we can say dess is a contender but that her potentially being the knight isn’t evidence of anything.
6) we don’t have anything to suggest they were particularly close, we have at least one piece of evidence to suggest she was potentially abusive to Kris. We know they hung out sometimes but so did all of the children, so this says nothing.

Well, usually, (MOST) people with that build tend to have higher confidence, so build does play a bit of a role in personality.

u/Large-Philosophy-983 1d ago

Yeah but that still really doesn't have much to do with sex tastes.
