more doodlez, this time of the pink and yellow beans!
capitalism is a hard game
Everyone in Undertale has a very distinct relationship with one another (not necessarily love). It is very obvious that Sans and Papyrus are two brothers that care about each other. It's obvious that Toriel and Asgore are former lovers. But what about Sans and Alphys?
While trying to speak to Alphys at the end of the True Pacifist Ending, there's a short conversation between Undyne and Alphys, and Sans tries to make a joke. But Alphys interrupted him with the same pun. So obviously Alphys knew Sans well enough to guess what he would say in that situation. But where did they know each other?
We know that Dr. Alphys was a scientist before she became the Royal Scientist. She did experiments in the True Lab using DETERMINATION and recorded entries in there. But one particular entry stuck out to me.
ENTRY 5
In this entry, Alphys used "blueprints" to extract determination from the human souls. But what are these blueprints? In fact, the only other time the word "blueprints" is mentioned in-game is in Sans' workshop.
Since this is literally the only other time "blueprints" is mentioned, we must assume that these are the same ones Alphys mentioned. So if Alphys and Sans both have or had the same blueprints, and they were about scientific experiments, that could only mean one thing.
There is actually more evidence that Sans was a scientist because of the items that he owns in his house.
We must assume that this is Sans' book, because it was hidden away inside of a joke book. I highly doubt someone would read a quantum physics book for fun, unless they could actually understand what it means.
Now that we know that Sans and Alphys were both scientists, and probably worked together, let's see what other information we can find about the blueprints. If you interact with them, it says, "You can't read the symbols they're written in.."
Symbols? What symbols? Nobody writes in symbols!
Nobody except the author of Entry 17, widely speculated to be W.D Gaster, the old Royal Scientist. But what is Gaster saying? Well, he isn't speaking gibberish. He's actually speaking through a font called Wingdings, which can be translated. The exact translation is:
Dark
Darker
Yet Darker
The darkness keeps growing
The shadows cutting deeper
Photon Readings Negative
This Next Experiment
Seems
Very
Very
Interesting
What do you two think?
Now that is very cryptic, but it also gives us a lot of information. For example, if these are the symbols used in the blueprints, that means Sans and Alphys could understand Wingdings, and possibly worked with Dr. Gaster.
It's very possible.
However, how close were Sans and Alphys?
Alphys was most likely alone when she conducted the experiments on the fallen down monsters, and unfortunately turned them into Amalgamates. She seemingly didn't tell anyone about this and fell into a spiral of depression. But did she tell the one person who could have understood what she did? Did she tell her old coworker?
When you call Papyrus outside of Alphys' lab without befriending Undyne, he and Sans say this:
Now Sans could be joking, but a lot of Sans' "jokes" turn out to be serious, so what if this was also serious? Does this mean that Sans knew about the Amalgamates? It's highly possible, especially with this dialogue:
I highly doubt that Sans was trying to eat healthier by eating dog food, but why would he give the bag to Alphys? For all we know, she doesn't have a dog. But she does have another "type of dog." That's right, Endogeny the Amalgamate. It's pretty likely that Sans knew about the Amalgamate Experiments, and if Sans is the only one she told, it's obvious that these two were very close.
But what did Sans do as a scientist?
And how do these two know Dr. Gaster?
I guess we'll never know...

Today on âHey Tech looks likeâŚâ Hunter and Omega for funsies!
Clonet Cadet Crying Headcanons
Iâve been in a weird place lately, so that means you all get some late night thoughts I had while drawing sad bois. (Warning its long)
I don't really see the Bad Batch crying too much as adults. (not to say that they don't, just that it takes A LOT for any of them to even begin to cry). I get the feeling that showing emotions was highly discouraged on Kamino.
None of them have *really* cried since they were kids.
Hunter tried very hard to not show weakness around his brothers. He was the leader after all, and it had been drilled into him that leaders kept their emotions in check. If you couldnât control yourself, then you had no chance of controlling a squad. That's what he believed anyway.
When he did cry, it was typically due to overstimulation. The kaminoans would push Hunter's senses to the breaking point during his training. His head and body would hurt so much that all he was able to do was cry.
He tried to hide it and suffer in silence. Typically finding a secluded area where he could cry in peace and quiet. He thought he was sneaky enough. But strangely whenever he came back to the main room, the lights would be dimmer, the outside halls would be free of foot traffic, and there would be a suspicious amount of pillows and blankets on his bed (including a certain stuffed Tooka doll). His brothers never said anything, and Hunter appreciated them for it.
Wrecker was a big kid and had even bigger emotions. When he was really young, he would cry all the time. Cried when he was left alone for too long, cried when he was hungry, cried when he was tired, sad, mad, or scared. Which doesn't sound too atypical for a child. But it was absolutely unacceptable for a military clone.
He was more or less forced to grow out of it.
But things did get better when he was given Lula. Tech had made it for him after he started having night terrors. Lula helped him feel safe and not so alone at night.
A Kaminoan once tried to take her away. Wrecker had cried non stop for days. After it became clear that it was more trouble than it was worth, Wrecker was given his doll back. And she has been with him ever since.
Tech already worried about his worth on the team. He felt like he could easily be replaced by a droid, and because of his deep rooted fear of being outmatched , he would tirelessly try to be as useful as possible. He was constantly upgrading, fixing, and modifying their weapons, gear, and home. So when something just would not work and he couldnât figure it out, all those insecurities would come bubbling back to the surface.
Tech typically would only cry when he was beyond frustrated with a project. When he had been awake for 72 hours and couldn't see straight anymore. He would suddenly throw his tools across the room and just break down. Hunter was typically the one to lead him away from his desk and force him to sleep. Tech always fought him on it, but as soon as his head hit the pillow, he would be out.
Crosshair has only cried a couple times in his entire life. And when he cried itâs typically because he was mad. Mad at the world, the Kaminoans, the regs, himself. He knows the world is against him and his brothers. And because of that, he expects near perfection from himself. He will stay at the range for hours upon hours until he can barely feel his arms. He knows that they have to be the best, or they risk being âdecommissionedâ. He can't allow that to happen to any of his brothers.
Once during a simulation, he misses. And because of it, Tech gets hurt. He is so upset with himself that after he checks to make sure Tech will be okay, he disappears for several days.
He runs away when he cries, he doesn't want a soul to see him break. He cant afford to be fragile, not when has to help protect his brothers.
By hacking into Undertale's files, you can find a secret room named Room 123 in Waterfall. By moving through the grass, you can encounter a monster trying to catch a bug. If you continue to talk to her, she'll ask you to "do something about your friend."
After examining this dialogue, I've come to the conclusion that this could match 4 different people. But who are they?
Sans is frequently implied to be following you throughout the game, and he is constantly smiling. However, when I think of this:
I don't think of it as creepy, I think of it as jolly. His smile is supposed to put you off-edge, which makes it even more surprising when he fights you at the end of a Genocide Route. You might be thinking, "What if he's doing his bad-time face?" That might be a possibility, but I doubt he makes that face all the time, especially if you're doing Pacifist at the time.
So we can officially rule out Sans as a suspect.
Flowey's smile can definitely be described as creepy. However, like Sans, he doesn't do his "evil face" all the time, especially not while he's following you. And, like Sans, this face:
It's not supposed to scare you, it's supposed to trick you into thinking Flowey was friendly. So unless the bug-catching monster was all-seeing, I doubt she would have noticed Flowey was evil. So we can eliminate Flowey as a suspect.
It is almost confirmed that Chara would be following you around the Underground. And Chara's face can DEFINITELY be described as creepy (this doesn't necessarily mean they're evil). As for the fact that the monster can see Chara, this room is only accessible through file-editing. So it would make sense that this monster cannot really be considered as an Undertale Canon character. So I think we can put Chara as Suspect #1.
This one requires a bit of inferring. If we assume that this unknown monster is Gaster:
Then his smile could defintely be seen as creepy. Considering the fact that this room can only be accessible through file editing, and Gaster is seen in almost every file-edited room, it would make sense for him to be the "one with the creepy smile".
Who do you think it is, Chara or Gaster? Or maybe Sans or Flowey? Maybe we'll never know...
can we have a smol Tech pls thank you!!!!
i dont normally take request (sr i'm bz) but this one i just have to xD
In the English version of the Bad Batch, the "reg" clones make fun of the Bad Batch by calling them the "Sad Batch."
In the French version of the show, they're normally called Clone Force 99. I give you the French insult:
