[All of the exciting Midousuji-isms Mettaton gets to miss out on... How theatrical, he'd remark, not at all put-off. He lives among a race of monsters, and always has.
Humans are just expressive like this, he'd claim.
But Mettaton hums again and shakes his head more fiercely.]
Not that, gorgeous. Of course there's little purpose to be found here!! As a TV star... [Mettaton's fingers drift from their nest of hair to rest upon his pink-plated chest, nails clicking upon metal;] do you think I have very much TV to appear on, in Aefenglom?? Come on. The best they have are these watches with sepia-toned cameras, and few people own them! I can become famous... But that's not enough for me. I wanted to be a global sensation. My ambition to reach for the stars can't possibly be made reality here, without TV, livestreams, or internet!
[These are not things he likes to say. At all. But he does, and he does it easily: it's a fact.]
What I meant, is... what is your goal at home, that you can't see to fruition here? What purpose have you lost, in being uprooted from your existence?
