 Gaster focuses mainly on interacting with him via his menus, where the user can ask him questions, give him things, or use different actions. His dialogue varies wildly depending on what you've done or said to him, and he has many, many unlockable features, paths, and secrets. He tends to be distant and standoff-ish, but with effort the user can get in his good graces.  Gaster focuses mainly on interacting with him via his menus, where the user can ask him questions, give him things, or use different actions.

 Alternately, the user can mistreat Gaster if they prefer. The easiest way to do this is to hit him, which has instant and noticable effects on all the user's interactions with him. Hitting him will lock off several different dialogue paths permanently for that run. Otherwise, the user can do other irritating things to bother him, such as nitpicking him or slapping cigarettes out of his hand. The more the user annoys him, the more options will appear for annoying him further. Actual violence is required for the most negative path, however.  Alternately, the user can mistreat Gaster if they prefer.
