Hapstablook also known as Mettaton on TV. He stumbled across Alphys in the dump, they got to talking and this led to a friendship! One day, Alphys came to Hapstablook in a bind, and he agreed to help out. Posing as a robot she 'made' to aid her reputation and save her job, and it worked! Mettaton is a robot preacher, spreading the Angel's good word through the broadcast, it also monitors the cameras, at least Alphys got that working. All Hapstablook has to do is play the part. He loved the part, no doubt about that, he loved the attention, he loved putting smiles on monster's faces. But it felt.. Fake.

Hapstablook's shell is malleable, he has better control over its shape then most. But his form didn't feel right, it didn't feel like him. He's changed before, but they rarely felt like him, and when they did the monsters around him were confused and critical of it. So he stopped. Sticking to the form his parents gave him, only changing in the comfort of his home. He became a recluse, unable to leave home without the fear of being judged. Then he met Alphys, she introduced him to human things, anime, magazines, and games, and a certain game caught his eye. And suddenly something clicked. He found every bit of material relating to the game, and something took shape. Something that felt like him. Of course he couldn't leave the house like that.

Papyrus was a weird guy, but he and Hapstablook got along. They got close, close enough for Hapstablook to show Papyrus what he had been working on. A human like form, and the clothes to pair. It wasn't perfect, but it was him. Papyrus was inspired, and may have gone overboard to make Mettaton a new body, so his friend could feel like himself on stage, even if it was behind a different name.

P1-104 (Papyrus) was always much more defiant than his brother. Of course this was because of ██████ (Riverperson) who planted seeds of doubt and was the father Gaster never was. ██████ gave him human books, taught him things about the world, and treated him like a son instead of a test subject. Because of all the things ██████ was saying about Gaster, Papyrus grew to hate him, hate what he stood for and his obsession. It was only after Papyrus accidently got ██████ fired that Papy started to act, sneaking around, finding out the truth and trying to save his brother despite their strained relationship. He tried running away plenty of times, but it only resulted in his legs being broken time and time again. he never stopped though.

As much as he despised his creator, he picked up a few things from him. How to lie, manipulate and gaslight, he learned to observe, pick apart what made someone so insecure so he could use it against them, something he commonly does to S2 (Sans) he hates doing it, but manipulating his brother to feel guilty buys him time. Even if it causes S2 to retreat into himself more often then not
