[ Now it all comes together. While Steve doesn't entirely understand why Alphys decided to make a robot, Mettaton answers that question when he explains his purpose as an entertainer. Alphys must have been looking for a while to brighten the lives of her fellow monsters, and this is what she'd come up with.
It's pretty depressing when Steve thinks about it like that, but Mettaton himself seems content with his purpose. Is that something that's programmed into him? Just how much free will does he have? Those are questions Steve should probably ask Alphys...
It doesn't surprise him to hear that Alphys can be reclusive, but Steve smiles and shrugs. ] Yeah, I spoke to her when she first got here and we've talked a few times since then too. She's got a lot to offer if she can move past her hang-ups about her skills. I'm grateful to her for helping Bucky with his arm, too.
[ Now her ability to provide that service makes even more sense, if she has experience building an entire robot. What would one arm be after that? ]
