This effectively makes me the oldest monster alive! And I've spent most of that time trying to get out with help from everyone I knew who is still alive! You, Undyne, Sans, Papyrus, the King and the Queen, even Gerson when I thought that maybe he knew something! Through all of the resets, none of you have been able to do anything! That's why I'm a downer and why I gave up! I could even tell you everything you and anyone else tried to do and almost every reason why those tries failed! The only reason I don't is because it will take up too much of my time to list them all and you'll forget IMMEDIATELY after. I should know, I tried that, too.

Then why not guide us? Each trial and error has got to be worth something. You as a scientist should know that. Isn't the saying, I haven't failed, I've just found a thousand ways that didn't work? I'm sure that applies here too, Gaster.

True, but there's also a point where you have to realize that what you are trying to do is not far enough within the realm of possibility yet to pursue it. The timeline jumping sets us back a lot, and since I actually can't do my own research anymore, you would have to extend your research further than both of us ever had before, probably in less time too. My research could be done at a leisurely pace, and to a degree so could yours, but this is a race against the clock and neither of us is prepared for that.

Grrrr you're just so frustrating! You're like a depressing version of Sans!

Well sorry I can't be all rainbows and butterflies after I've seen everyone I know die time and time again, just to have the timeline skip backwards and start over from the beginning. I'm sorry that I just gave up after watching my entire family be slaughtered one by one and had no way to help. And as for being a depressing version of Sans, I'm glad you can see the family resemblance. And you haven't seen Sans when he was pushed to his limits, because he's worse than me. I guess it runs in my family.

Maybe if we infused you with one of the souls you'd be anchored.
