They.. just showed up one day, and asserted themselves.

Gaster is likely a skeleton, just like Sans and Papyrus, and every time we've seen different characters of the same monster "type", they've been related. This even includes Snowdrake and Chilldrake:If Chilldrake was looking for Snowdrake ever since he ran away, he must have noticed this.. Chilldrake and Snowdrake are likely siblings. We have Sans and Papyrus, Toriel and Asgore.. And Asriel of course. Muffet has a buisness for the other spiders.

Now that we've established that, we can now start our connection between Sans and Gaster-And this too, has evidence. First off, we need to look at Sans' Lab. There's a ptcure of Sans and people you don't recognize. (No, they're not automatically humans. Monsters would be considered people too.) But.. Who are these people? More than likely Gaster and his followers, because of the note attatched:"don't forget". Why would it be so easy to forget, yet so important not to? What about these people having no longer existed, their very past wiped from the timeline? Then it would be quite hard NOT to forget, since in the timeline he's in, Gaster NEVER existed. That would also explain the strange symbols that we can't read-They're written in Wingdings. As for the machine? ...Well, that requires a lot more speculation, but here you go..

Sans has been trying to "go back". But, what does he mean by this? We know it's not the Surface, because of the VERY next line. What if he meant to go back to a world with Gaster, and that's why he was trying to fix the machine? Entry number 17 speaks of an interesting experiment with negative photon readings, and the darkness growing. This could be referring to the void, with the machine being a passageway through different timelines-One Sans could use to go back to before Gaster fell into his own creation. Now that I've read that all, I can add my part of the story I really can't say there's anything wrong with yours unless saying "That's speculation" is even a valid argument.

The Machine yeah it could be a Time-line Machine (Not to be confused with a time machine). I'm not saying that it is NOT, but let's see what ELSE it could be. First off let's start with the most simplest, similar, and the theory I've already mentioned! A Time Machine! Why!? It could be a Time Machine, because Sans want's to go back in time and warn Gaster about the experiment failing and to resort to some other experiment.

This one is a little far-fetched but, not as weird as some other theories. This wouldn't get Sans to help with the problem, but rather to MONITOR it. In the Sans fight, he says.

"Our reports showed a massive anomaly in the space time continuum.  Timelines jumping left and right, stopping and starting...  Until suddenly, everything ends.  heh heh heh... that's your fault, isn't it?" Then the pieces of dialogue ALL connect from there, but after that, it really get's off topic for this machine.

He could be monitoring what he calls "The space-time continuum" with the machine saying the huge anomaly (you) are causing a big trouble in it. Could it possibly be that at the last few moments of the game he fixed the machine and straight away found YOU making big differences in it? He gave up finding Gaster at this point probably and went to the Judgment Hall to fight the player.

Now the last one is REALLY stretched, but it's really a theory, nothing can be wrong or right. Let's say Sans already knows what timeline, where he is and that he's alive (just for this circumstance just say he is alive) that machine could well enough be used for sending digital messages (not email's, but just out of no where a hologram base shows up in front of Gaster and heck, there's a hologram message on it from Sans.

And that's it. I've spent 45 mins on this wow I gotta go.
