Wing Ding Gaster, Royal Scientist, confidential records. Recording Entry Three of the research decreed by King Asgore Dreemur, progeny of the Great War Lord Eyamba Dreemur. The projected total number of entries is as of yet unknown.
It has been three days since my previous entry and the human's recovery is proceeding satisfactorily. As it was confirmed that they are still able to feed themself with their uninjured hand, supervision has been reduced to twice a day with an accessible call button for the human to use. Physical examination indicate that their fall could not be a physical cause for their lack of speech. Possible causes now include unrecognizable trauma based on lack of understanding of the human body, psychological trauma that could have been caused by or before the injury, or injury in an area outside of the throat and chest affecting their voice.

The first human we've encountered in generations and they can't even tell us anything of the surface world.
The human currently spends roughly four hours awake with the following ten to twelve hours spent sleeping. Though this may be normal for a human, monsters tend to exhibit the same sleeping patterns during illness or injury. We may need to do another breathing test to ensure that sleep apnea is not causing this extended lethargy. Once the human appears to be in better health, I will again attempt to ask them questions, this time giving the human some paper and a pen. If their speechlessness continues, perhaps their kind has an understandable written language.

little assistants have expressed great interest in this historic event. I have decided to carefully supervise their limited involvement in this research, giving them tasks such as carrying medicine to the human and dictating my notes. The human expressed alarm when they regained consciousness and saw us, requiring sedatives for us to cast their arm. Their reaction to my assistants was more of surprise than fear, possibly helped by the fact that they all have a similarly small frame. If the human does not respond to my questions, perhaps they will feel more at ease speaking with Sans and Papyrus.
End recording.
