If you spare Papyrus in genocide he does say "HOW LUCKY OF YOU, IF I HAD USED MY SPECIAL ATTACK YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN BLASTED TO-" or at least he did in that version of the game. He is reffering to his own attack, not saying sans would take revenge. if he was the "if i had used my special attack" would not make any sense at all. 'Blasted' is a very clear hint. and this isnt a coincidence. this is all coming from Toby, and he had already invented the gaster blaster idea. also, just because Sans uses it doesnt mean it is exclusive to Sans. it is named after Gaster after all. I can see papyrus not using a Gaster blaster as he is to nice too, but i dont see why he doesnt have the ability to summon one. I was gonna bring up my headcanon/theory that Gaster is actually Toby Fox but it’s not that relevant to this

I’m just wondering why it would be Papyrus’s Special Attack if it’s a normal attack for Sans. How could a Special Attack be a normal attack for another character? I don’t know. Sans’s special attack is literally nothing (He says it himself), and Papyrus never got to use his because of Toby. Unless Toby Fox gives us an answer or something happens in Deltarune, we have no idea on what a special attack is like. I guess we know Papyrus’s special attack looks like a bone (or at least Toby was biting on a bone and Papyrus said it was his special attack and it happened when Papyrus said, “BEHOLD...! MY SPECIAL ATTACK!”... that bone looks nothing like a Gaster Blaster

(Sighs) Toby.... why can’t you bestow your Undertale knowledge on us for one day at least? thats the one problem. it could be a blaster was planned to be his speacial attack. not sure if that line is still in the game. he might still be able to use one though... Uhhh... I don’t think I understood. Could you please word that better? sure. when papyrus said "good thing i didnt use my special attack, you surely would have been blasted to-" he seems to be reffering too a gaster blaster. but maybe not. also i dont think this line is in undertale anymore. so it may no longer be canon. the bone the annoying dog steals is the biggest proof that its not a gaster blaster anymore. K. Think I get what you were trying to say

The reason I didn’t get it before was probably due to the wording

I’m not against Papyrus using Gaster Blasters, but I don’t think they’d be his special attack since Sans uses them as a normal attack and basically doesn’t have a special attack (he literally said his special attack is nothing and is never gonna be anything either) I get it. although we have to admit, Sans does seem a lot more powerfull than Papyrus. it may just be a normal attack to sans. but it could be harder for Papyrus.
