There is not much context. It's dialogue from Deltarune when our main character Kris looks into a mirror. It could be interpreted in different ways as MC is non-binary, uses they/them pronouns and is a prison cage for us the player. It could be simple typical weird phrasing of Tobyfox, Kris' discomfort with their body both regarding gender identity, and losing agency over their own life because of us as a mere puppet.
I don't think it does. I don't exactly remember entirety of Deltarune, but I think the second text box is from Undertale where it's not as clear if MC and us are separate beings.
