Description

challenge can be found here!

when he realizes he's been an ass to his friends and family, he goes to apologize to them. i mean yea, he might have forgotten what was really important to him, but once he remembers, he goes to make up for it immediately.
and yes, the king mtt ending is messed up in so many ways, but you see the way he gets when he talks about being unable to find alphys however hard he looked. he WANTS to be a better friend to her. and in the epilogue, he goes and reconciles with blooky. (let alone that his facesprite when blooky hangs up and the one when he talks about alphys on the king mtt ending are the same if i'm not mistaken ;A; )
he has flaws, yes. everyone does. but he cares for his friends and family much more than he lets on at first sight.

Yeah, that's exactly how I read Mettaton. It's worth noting also that, when Frisk is fighting him in the Pacifist route, he more or less asks Frisk, "Why are you doing this? Don't you understand that I want to save humanity?" He's got a legit reason for working against Alphys; from his standpoint, she's interfering for selfish reasons and risking an outcome that will prove disastrous to humanity. So even when he's trying to kill you, he's got a better reason than just fucking with you for the sake of good television.

I want to write a big tearful reunion for Mettaton and Alphys where she apologizes for her questionable manipulation and he apologizes for being oblivious to her loneliness. I like to think they become much better friends.
