#experiment gaster

Sans watched silently as Papyrus talked to the blind skeleton floating in the tank before glancing back down at the data on the tablet. HP: <unknown> Attack: <unknown> Defense: <unknown> Subject 0-G’s information fluctuated too much to get an accurate reading. Sans sighed, he knew 0-G wasn’t going to last long outside of the tank, and leaving him in there felt wrong. “Papyrus.” He finally spoke, “Come with me.” The tall skeleton looked at him, then back at 0-G, “I’ll be right back, I promise!” ‘O-K-A-Y’ 0-G tapped out on the glass. Papyrus smiled and then followed Sans into the other room, “What is it, brother?” “Pap…I don’t think 0-G can survive outside the tank.” Sans said frankly yet delicately, “His HP keeps changing…it’s unpredictable…I’m afraid if we take him out, he might get hurt…or die.” Papyrus’ smile fell a little, “Oh…W-well, maybe he’ll stabilize once he’s outside of the tank!” “The clones I made didn’t even make it out of the tank, Papyrus…I’m certain he’s not too far behind them.” “Clones? I thought those samples you took from his hands were to correct his instability.” “They were at first, but…that proved unsuccessful…” Sans put his hand on his brother’s shoulder, “It’s only a matter of time, Pap…we should think abo-” “Sans, don’t you dare finish that sentence! I’m not going to give up on him! He’s made it this far, what makes you think he can’t pull through?” “Because the data doesn’t support it.” “To heck with your data!” “Papyrus, don’t yell at me.” Sans said seriously, “I’m upset too, but would you rather let him live his life in that tank for all eternity? If we ever got out of the underground, we couldn’t take him with us.” “Sans, you haven’t even given him a chance to live outside the tank!” “Papyrus, please, I don’t want hi-” The argument was interrupted by a loud explosion sound coming from the room with the tank. The brothers looked at each other, then hurried back into the room. The tank was shattered, bits of glass and metal littering the soaked floor. Sitting hunched over where the tank once stood was Subject 0-G. He looked toward them, a hint of purple light shining under the bone on his skull. He reached out for them, wobbling slightly as the light died down. Papyrus rushed over and caught him as Sans looked at the damage. “Alright…” Sans closed his eyes, turning off the tablet, “He’s earned his chance…”

Working on the illustration for the next log entry in the 0-G Experiment log ( @subject0-g ). It’s inspired by Mewtwo busting the tube he was in from “Pokémon: The First Movie”.

((Sorry for being so inactive on here, work and getting my cosplay ready for SoDak Con has been taking up most of my time. So here's some more 0-G expression drawings.))

Despite my best efforts, Subject 1-G has dissolved in the tank. Cloning Subject 0-G has failed. I'd rather not risk taking another piece from him to try again. His HP keeps fluctuating...I got lucky with the two pieces I took from him for 1-G and 2-G, but I don't think I'll be able to have that luck again. I still haven't told Papyrus that 0-G is most likely going to fail...I hate seeing him upset...But I know it'll have to be talked about soon...

Subject 0-G sat quietly in his room, looking at the wall. He didn’t really like being alone for too long; isolation made his mind restless. ‘I hope the doctors return soon….It’s been a long time since I’ve seen them….’ he thought, ‘Did I do something wrong?’ He looked at the ceiling and noticed a track. The brow bone on his good eye furrowed. He had never noticed the track there before. Curious, he levitated himself up to the ceiling and tapped it, falling back to the ground almost instantly after he finished. Levitation wasn’t his best ability. “What was that?” A voice said from outside the room. 0-G didn’t recognize the voice, but he could hear a mechanical whirr coming toward him. “Hello?” It called again. The frightened skeleton closed his eyes, attempting to listen for a soul, but he couldn’t hear one. “Oh…oh goodness!” The voice was above him now, “How did a child get in here?” 0-G screamed and opened his eyes, looking around frantically. “N-no! It’s okay! I’m not going to hurt you!” The voice insisted, “Calm down!” The skeleton finally noticed the strange, round robot hanging from the track above him. <Who are you?> 0-G asked in his strange font, <Where are the doctors?> “Ummmm…I-I didn’t get a word of that….sorry…” the robot said. 0-G sighed; everyone told him that. He held out the hand with his ID plate on it and pointed to it. The robot looked it over, “Oh, they made you too, huh? I thought they only made machines, like me. You’re…wondering where they are?” 0-G nodded. “Well, that’s a good question…I don’t know either. Maybe we can go look for them.” 0-G nodded again. “Alright. My name’s GR1778Y. Well, that’s my serial number anyway.” 0-G pointed to his ID plate again. “Just 0-G, huh?” Another nod. “Alright then 0-G, shall we start searching?” More nodding. GR1778Y’s lower eye panel went up to signify that he was happy, “Then let’s go.”

Subject 0-G and Core GR1778Y Inked and ready to color!
