FRIEND is a DEVICE, it was created by Gaster, that's like the one thing we know with 100% certainty about it
If Gaster, or one of Gaster's creations, was responsible for luring Dess and Kris into the Shelter and causing everything that happened as a consequence of that, it explains why he's seemingly taken a personal interest in Kris and the others (who he calls "VERY, VERY WONDERFUL") and brings YOU in to create a better future for them

FRIEND got its role in the story basically confirmed already but FRIENDschizos never fucking talk about that because they're all former Mikeschizos who can't let go of him being The Knight or some other stupid bullshit and they're butthurt that Toby made fun of them
