"Well, on the bright side... even though I am a completely hollow, replicable nonperson, if Wonderland ever does destroy me completely and replace me with another of its summoned copies, you won't have to say goodbye any of that, right? You won't actually lose me at all."
Maybe that's... laughing it off a little too hard? Not funny. The kind of humour that actually just makes people feel worse. Instead of conveying "see, this isn't such a big deal, we can get over this," it might just convey "I'm mocking your efforts to fix the problem." They never were too great at knowing when to QUIT.
"If it can make a Chara who has all my memories, then they'll remember getting to know you, too, I mean. If I ever..." If they disappear again, then you won't have to miss them or go through the trouble of starting all over again on the "not treating them like a terrible consequence" thing!!
Okay, yeah, that's definitely not going to cheer anyone up.
"They'll probably love you, too."
Every Chara that Wonderland has summoned, they're positive, has loved Frisk, for all the fearful weight that word may carry.
"Maybe it is just narrative function inherent to every fallen human ever named, but I think if there's one thing that's always been constant, then it must be that "Chara" is always trying to look out for you. It doesn't need a definition of its own. It doesn't need things to be arranged so you can't live without it. It just... it's enough that you have memories that you can cherish, you know? It's enough if your journey was a little easier to bear."
So why keep going in circles looking for lofty concepts like proof of identity or a reason to live? You could probably spend your whole life vainly pursuing things like that. It's enough to have this, right? To know you'll be remembered by someone. To know you were there. To just be able to be someone who was their friend for a little while.
