I pirated Deltarune because I was dirt broke and wanted to play the new chapters. I'm in a better position now, and would like to actually buy the game. Does anyone know where the saves would be stored? I want transfer and back them up, then load them into the Steam version. I played it on the Steam Deck then loaded it through Proton, and I'm not used to messing with Proton/Wine nonsense very much, so I don't know how the file stuff works.

Don’t own the game personally to check if this is accurate, but my go-to place for game configuration/save files is the PCGW. Here is the page https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Deltarune#Save_game_data_location

Can you just buy it, but not load the legit version?

Nah. I have to find the location of the saves if I want to play it on anything but my Deck, anyway. I'd rather play this thing on my real PC when the next chapter drops. I really don't want to have to go through the whole game again to get my gear and all the secret stuff again.
