Reborn as a baby Xtale Gaster

Gaster POV
I opened my eyes wondering when I fell asleep. I looked around when I realized that I was starving, looks like I'm in a crib. I jolted when I saw everyone I saw earlier, plus a few new faces, like a spider lady, two goat people and a robot and the tall skeleton was missing. All of them keeping up with the black and white theme. The spider lady was the first to speak "Are you sure he lost all of his memories? He looks like he could make a good pie~". "I don't think he did lose his memories but Papyrus has already decided he's going to be raising him." The human with white hair replied. At that point a much more serious sounding discussion broke out about weather to kill me or keep me alive, and if I'm kept alive weather or not this Papyrus person would raise me. I turned away not wanting to hear what's going to happen but wanting to learn more about this Gaster person whose body I was now in.

I quickly found myself listening intently as I had managed to sit up. One benefit of listening while watching was figuring out whose names where whose and how Gaster had hurt them and well as who I should avoid, try and win over and was going to be my friend as soon as walking and talking where back on the menu. So far the spider lady, Muffet was on the avoid list from the will turn me into a pie comment despite that she would have been on the try and win over list. I looked towards the door as I heard footsteps approaching. The others didn't notice it whatsoever. They likely would have if they weren't so engrossed in their argument. A few like the Short skeleton, Sans, The tall goat man Asgore and Torial the goat woman noticed as the door opened. I smiled and giggled as Papyrus the tall skeleton walked in. Papyrus looked over as he held up a bottle. Food! As Papyrus walked over everyone noticed. He easily picked me up as he gave me the bottle. I happily bit down and began to drink it.

I watched as Torial walked over before she spoke. "Papyrus, are you sure you can take care of him?" Papyrus nodded before Torial continued "What will you do if he remembers? What if he tries to Overwrite? Or back to his old ways?" Well considering I'm not Gaster that's fairly unlikely. Papyrus looked away from me clearly scared before his face hardened "I- I would kill him. He did so much harm. If he goes back to his old ways I will not hesitate to." Torial nodded as I looked at her.  I gave her a sheepish smile as if trying to say 'Don't worry I'm not evil I'm not even sure what the fuck is going on.' Torial laughed when she saw my face as I finished eating.  I looked around as Papyrus carried me out of the room.  I was doing my best to learn the layout of the house.  I looked up at Papyrus as he set me down on the couch which had a nest of blankets and pillows which was very comfortable.  I leaned back as Papyrus decided to hand me the remote.  Jesus crisp he has no clue how to parent.  I internally sighed as I noticed the remote was nearly as big as I was.

I looked at Papyrus wondering if I should try and convey I shouldn't have any clue how to use it.  Should I try and eat it or button mashing?  Papyrus luckily realized this so he picked up the remote and began to scroll the channels.  I watched the channels and leaned forward when a really interesting documentary about the development of the nuclear bombs and the Manhattan project.  Thank the heavens Papyrus noticed and set down the remote keeping it on.  Papyrus than walked out of the room and into what looked like a kitchen.  Sans and Torial shortly after walked into the room.  Torial saw the documentary and looked like she didn't approve but decided to do nothing about it as the documentary was educational and could easily be worse.  She sat down on my left and Sans on my right.

An hour passed and the documentary ended.  Around the time that the newest documentary was starting, one about the perils of Victorian life where I had to hide the remote from Torial Papyrus left the kitchen and called for everyone to the kitchen for dinner. Torial got up as Sans grabbed me. I squirmed around trying to watch the documentary still as I was led to the kitchen. Sans chuckled at this as he sat me down in a high chair before he spoke "Looks like G is keeping his love of learning." Chara rolled their eyes "Great, he's still the same person." I looked at Chara while internally sighing. I was a Toxicologist not a whatever the heck this Dr. Gaster was. I've honestly heard everything but I think he might have been a physicist from what I'm guessing.  Maybe a mathematician? Those tend to be evil and are often mistaken for scientists.

Torial looked at me before she spoke.  "Papyrus, do you know how old he is?  I can't tell."  Papyrus looked at me before he spoke "A baby.  Less than a year old.  Can't eat solids but can eat soft foods."  Torial blinked confused before she spoke "How can you tell?  I'd say he's even younger than that.  Asriel was even larger at that age."  Papyrus shrugged before he spoke "Skeletons rely on teeth to tell as bones can only give you a general age.  So he's anywhere between 4-8 months old."  Torial nodded as a cup of applesauce was placed in front of me.  I looked down at it and pulled it closer to me and grabbed one of those thick plastic baby spoons.  It was a purple color.  I smiled as I managed to hold it properly and began to eat.  Undyne was the first to notice that I was eating properly.  She stared at me for a second before she spoke "Once baby Gaster is done eating can I talk to him?"  I froze once she spoke and immediately switched strategies for eating.
