[It's been a while since Alphys was on the network just on her own- she doesn't tend to get on video in front of a bunch of people except for emergency situations (like when the Null flooded the city last year). But now the feed starts with her hands pressed over the camera as she arranges her phone, pulling back after a few seconds to show her more in frame. Seems she was still setting up the recording. She's sitting at her desk in the Lab, the chalkboard behind her blank, giving a little wave.]
So uh, h-hey there, Hadriel! This is Alphys. Or well, I'm Alphys. Dr. Alphys, but just Alphys is fine, uh--
[She pulls at some papers on her desk to try and make herself look busy. Why is doing announcements so hard?]
Anyway! So some of you might, uh, know me in that I run the lab here. Kind of. I help run it with a lot of people! But uh, m-my specialty is actually in mechanical engineering, and uh, more specifically robotics. And uh, I've noticed recently there are actually a lot of robots here? All of a sudden?
[She waves her hands in front of her, palms out from her chest.]
Not that it's a bad thing! And I, uh, totally want to help- I've done repairs on plenty of robots here before and I have some, uh, s-spare parts and stuff like that, but... I was wondering if anyone else has experience in, uh, that sort of thing? I used to know a couple of people, but I think, uh... just about everyone's gone home.
[Alphys looks down for just a moment, her head spines wilting, before she perks back up with her trademarked lopsided smile.]
So uh! If anyone knows anything or just wants to lend a hand or is a new robot and needs something just let me know!! I'm down at the lab! So! Yeah! Bye!!!
[And then there's a few more seconds of her grabbing her phone and just kind of squeezing it until the feed cuts. Might've been nice to know where the lab is, but. She tried.]
[ooc: Please feel free to put action prompts in here of characters coming down to see her as well!! Just trying to keep it all in one space.]

[Which she looks embarrassed to say.]
All my research on the Door, and now this, I haven't thought about the Null in a while.

[He has no clue what Alphys is up to in the lab these days. He supposes it makes sense, though. They haven't had new developments in the Null situation for a while.]
Do you think there's anything more to be gained from the Null research?
no subject
I mean... I think there's a l-lot more I could learn about them. But the parts I have are basically gone, and short of getting to interact with a live one that isn't going to kill me, there isn't a lot more I can do.
[[Name] notwithstanding, of course.]
Plus, as much as I'm a robotics person, I'm not a w-weapons expert. I don't think I could help anyone there other than rerouting power sources.
