User:CaveJohnson/Blog:My theory on WD Gaster's backstory, and the origins of Sans

Hello peeps!

So for anyone who read my last blog, (which was posted shortly before I began work on this, so you probably haven't had time.)

I mentioned a belief that WD Gaster is the true brother of Papyrus, with Sans being a human put in his place.

Allow me to explain, but before I do, let's put down a list of reasons it is widely believed WD Gaster is a skeleton.

and Sans is a human.

WD Gaster is probably a skeleton because:

Speaks in a different font.

Name is a pun on that font.

has a possible sprite that resembles a skeleton.

Reasons Sans is a human:

Bleeds. (don't believe it can be ketchup, it comes out his mouth.)

Never see him turn to dust.

dodges. (Only Frisk/Chara is seen able to dodge.)

Is the hardest boss in the game.

(Humans are stronger than monsters.)

Is aware of the ability of time travel.

(Though I don't believe he has this ability himself...

more on that later.)

With that out of the way, let's begin this theory.

It is said WD Gaster was working on a machine, and then he fell into it.

many have speculated this to be a time machine, I don't believe this to be the case.

I believe WD Gaster was working on a transporter.

Throughout all of the series, we never get a direct explanation as to what happened to the soul of Chara.

All we know is Asriel asborbed it, but when he died, it shouldn't have ceased to exist, as it was a human soul.

and Frisk's soul isn't Chara's, she makes that clear after completing a Genocide room.

I believe as the former scientist, WD Gaster used the power of Chara's soul to power a transporter, that was meant to transport every monster THROUGH the barrier.

But when testing it on himself, something went wrong.

he didn't just transport himself out of the transporter, he transported himself in the place of another human, and that human, in the place of him.

and then the machine exploded.

that human, was Sans.

Sans then works with the Gaster followers, who were literally that. 'Gaster followers'

to help them rebuild the ship, and not only bring Gaster home, but also take himself home.

Unfortunately, while they manage to rebuild the machine, and teleport Gaster back.

he splits into a million pieces, and destroys his followers as well, eradicating his memory from everyone who knew him.

then Sans becomes the guy we know as 'Sans' pretending to be Papyrus's long lost brother, and naive Papyrus didn't even question it.

So what do you guys think?

Do you guys think this is a possibility?
