[ID: A 2-panel comic. The first panel shows two buttons directly next to each other, with a hand tentatively hovering between them. The first button reads, "Getting diagnosed to receive necessary accommodations and treatments to improve my QOL." (QOL meaning Quality of Life). The second button reads, "Remaining undiagnosed and deteriorating to avoid risking the loss of my rights at any moment under 47." The second panel shows the man to whom the hand is attached, sweating and dabbing at his head nervously with a cloth. He is labeled "Disabled person who knows what they have and just needs it put on paper." End ID]

yuka isnât just a monogendered trans woman also. thatâs a weird thing to reduce a non-binary personâs gender to. thereâs a whole plot point of them feeling forced to start pandering to cisheteronormative standards by both acting more feminine and exclusively seeing men.
âThere are, on the other hand, two kinds of injustice â the one, on the part of those who inflict wrongâŠâ
âFor he who, under the influence of anger or some other passion, wrongfully assaults another seems, as it were, to be laying violent hands upon a comrade.â
âBut in any case of injustice it makes a vast deal of difference whether the wrong is done as a result of some impulse of passion, which is usually brief and transient, or whether it is committed wilfully and with premeditation; For offences that come through some sudden impulse are less culpable than those committed designedly and with malice aforethought.â
âInjustice often arises also through chicanery â that is, through an over-subtle and even fraudulent construction of the law. This it is that gave rise to the now familiar saw: âMore law, less justice.ââ
Passive Injustice
âThe other [kind of injustice is] on the part of those who, when they can, do not shield from wrong those upon whom it is being inflicted.â
âHe who does not prevent or oppose wrong, if he can, is just as guilty of wrong as if he deserted his parents or his friends or his country.â
âThe motives for failure to prevent injury and so for slighting duty are likely to be various: People either are reluctant to incur enmity or trouble or expense; or through indifference, indolence, or incompetence, or through some preoccupation or self-interest they are so absorbed that they suffer those to be neglected whom it is their duty to protect.â
âThere are some also who, either from zeal in attending to their own business or through some sort of aversion to their fellow-men, claim that they are occupied solely with their own affairsâŠBut while they steer clear of the one kind of injustice, they fall into the other: they are traitors to social life, for they contribute to it none of their interest, none of their effort, none of their means.â
Final Note
âIt is not an easy matter to be really concerned with other peopleâs affairs.â
But justice demands we try.

I'm currently going over the first 10 pages in preparation for uploading. Making small fixes, doing some last proofreading. I'm hoping to be done today, but I've had some distractions.
In the meantime, this is the preluding post to Handplates. Keep reading for the foreword!
Foreword:
Iâll try and not be too much a fanboy and keep this short!
Itâs a great honor to be able to work with zarla on this! Iâm doing most of the legwork while zarla just double-checks to make sure everything looks fine. Whether she realises it or not, the Handplates AU was a massive game-changer in terms of fanfiction and fanon within the Undertale community. It helped spawn several dub channels, inspired many to begin writing their own AUs, and ignited multiple curious lore-hunters into inventing science behind Souls in Undertale! It was also one of the first long-term AU projects, and one of the longest that ended up being completed. In my opinion, Handplates is definitely one of the main reasons Undertale found its home on Tumblr.
Handplates will always hold a special place in my heart, and I hope this transcription will do it justice and serve as my love letter to this eight-year project. Hereâs hoping it wonât take me as long to undertake this transcription!

P.S. I am absolutely writing every word of this with the Gaster Ukagaka (Link here: zarla-s gaster ghost post) hanging out on my desktop.Â
Key:
[Italicised brackets will include environments first when applicable, then the actions taking place.]
Character: Spoken lines will have the characterâs name then the line after a colon.
Character: (Internal Monologue) Internal monologues will be like spoken lines, except written in italics and will have âInternal Monologueâ in parenthes for the first of that page, and âIMâ every instance after.
Gaster: (signing) Gaster gets a special set of rules! If he is speaking in cipher around those who understand it (Subject 1 and Subject 2) it will be a spoken line. However, if it is around or to those who need sign language, the indicator âsigningâ will appear. Imply that he is always speaking when signing.
Gaster 2: (in cipher) Sometimes Dr. Gaster wonât sign when speaking to those who need it. In these cases, his lines will be preceded with âin cipherâ in parentheses. Again, while we the reader know what heâs saying, those heâs speaking to canât understand him.
Other notes: For the time being, I intend on writing events of panels in the order that makes most sense. For instance, sometimes in a panel, a character will be reacting to something said in the panel, so I may write the line first, then the characterâs appearance.
Last thoughts:
I am NOT a professional! Iâm doing this completely voluntarily and on my own time! Iâm keeping things easy on myself with relatively lax uploading schedules, as well as having a bit of wiggle room with more pages prepared.
That being said, I would love to accept your criticism! If you use a screenreader or often require text descriptions, PLEASE tell me what Iâm doing wrong or right!
If you like and support what Iâm doing, hit that like! Hit that reblog! Let me know, share the love!
