Understaged Mettaton (Artiste if necessary, but he prefers Mettaton)

a true triple threat performer in a world of artists, he can do it all! Despite his diva exterior, he's still kind of.. insecure.

he and Alphys designed a humanoid body first, but couldn't decide on a face for the longest time- and by then, they'd already publicized the helmet head (there is no copyright infringement underground, sorry d*ft p*nk)

he likes the face a lot but what about his BRAND.. 

(what if everyone hates it...) 

instead he just keeps asking alphys for new pairs of legs. sir you dont need 15 pairs of legs yes yes i see them theyre great but

this is his idol outfit, the wings detach for alt. fashion.

Understaged: lab team unite..! 

well, calling sans + mettaton a team is a little much, but anyway here’s the major resistance standing against the force that’s playing around with their world like they’re toys

... it’s underestimating them. they’re ‘actors.’

(alphys is not part of lab team because 1. she doesn’t naturally have metaknowledge so she’d have to be fully read in every loop again and 2. she really can’t take any more stress staged sans tried but once they started getting towards double digits in flowey’s loops she was collapsing)
