i have a little question. Would you rather reffer to Ink as a ''soulless being" or 'person who lacks a soul"? (saw this discussion a while ago and apparently there's a different with both terms)
This is weirdly timed due to me working on a video talking about what Ink’s soulless identity could be metaphors for…nice job anon /gen
I have a small section about this in my video, but I won’t mind adding it here and expanding on it. The only reference we have of a monster who is soulless is Flowey, but what most people tend to forget about Flowey is that the reason he is who is he is due to the determination inside him as well. Unlike Ink who is capable of feeling genuine emotions, even if they are technically artificial, Flowey feels nothing but animal instincts and a drive to survive. I see some people say Flowey CAN feel some emotions, and while I want to agree with that, it’s clear this is through an animalistic way. Flowey “feels’ fear when his life is threatened. He cries when the last bits of his good memories, the memories his determination latched onto, are brought up due to the influence they have over his remains. He doesn’t truly feel things like love or empathy, so he fits the criteria of a ‘soulless being’ a lot better.
Where the problem had risen in the fandom is people using their knowledge of how Flowey acts for a baseline of what Ink is like- using terms like “soulless being” to describe him and making him cruel and overly rude. It’s confirmed that Ink is a selfish prick, but it’s also confirmed he CAN feel love, and feels love for his dads. He can also mourn and feel genuine connections to people due to his vials and the lack of determination serving as metaphoric survival instincts. He CAN love, and he can cry over losing someone. That requires empathy and compassion- and due to his vials serving as his soul, he’s still a person.
Flowey is more of a vengeance spirit in a way- haunting the narrative until Frisk holds him through his turmoil and reveals the soul of Asriel. Though it’s hinted he will become Flowey again, I like to think that Asriel REALLY means that his soul can move on, and Flowey will be all that remains, which will be an empty flower. Without his soul and lasting strings, nothing can hold Flowey together. That’s not exactly the means of a person- just fragments stitched together by determination and past memories.
Ink is a person- even if everyone and himself doubt it. He has the capability of care and love and has a drive that isn’t just connected to survival. He’s able to maintain positive connections and make enemies at the same time, upholding both in a way that’s reminiscent to others. Even without his soul, his vials are his support- almost like how people get mechanical legs after losing one. They are foreign and not in the shape of a soul at all, but they were given to him as a replacement and to keep him going. They will never be on the same par of an original soul, but they hold him together anyways. That’s the structure of a person who just seems to have a disability- not a completely separate being.
TLDR: I think the term a person without a soul fits- however, basing Ink off of the one other soulless character we know of (even though he isn’t a good comparison due to the immense differences between them and their situations) is what drove so much of his mischaracterization throughout the years, and we need to remember Ink had a artificial soul in a way and shouldn’t be considered a completely soulless and empty person when he has things to support him.
