Alphiel

"Hey, why didn't you tell me that the queen was this cute?"

- Alphys

Alphiel is the femslash ship between Alphys and Toriel.

Undertale
Due to Alphys being hired as the royal scientist after Toriel left the throne, they are some the only main characters who didn't have any interaction before the plot of the game started. Alphys seemed to have been aware of the existence of a Queen, but has never met her in person.

In one Neutral ending, should the player befriend Papyrus and Undyne without killing anyone and "dated" Alphys, Undyne will mention to player that Alphys is working even harder than she ever did under Asgore, since Toriel is much stricter. Should Alphys be part of the call, she and Undyne will agree that they should let Toriel talk to the player next time, thinking it would make her very happy. This the best possible Neutral ending with Toriel still alive, other endings instead imply that Alphys was pushed to her very limit due to the player's actions and disappeared.

The True Pacifist ending reveals that Alphys has recordings of the Dreemurr Family in the True Lab, detailing how Chara convinced their adopted brother Asriel to absorb their soul by weakening themselves with buttercups, giving base explanations on how Flowey came to be. Since Alphys does not recognize Toriel later, it is implied that Asgore gave her these recordings in hopes of helping her revive his son.

Alphys finally gets to meet Toriel, when everyone comes to the child's aid before they either kill or get killed by Asgore. The former queen happily greets her, asking her if she's a friend of the human. Alphys is confused about a second Boss monster, but confirms that she is indeed a friend. When Alphys sees Asgore all sad that his ex Toriel rejected his apology, she and Undyne try to comfort him by telling him there are plenty of fish in the sea, but that leads to some awkward tension between her and Undyne. Mettaton pops in, urging them to kiss already, they would've done so if Toriel didn't remind them that a child is watching.

However, when the group questions how all of them knew to come here, Papyrus told them that "a little flower" helped him, which only sets off alarm bells in Toriel's head. Speaking of the devil, Flowey ensnares all of the monsters present (implied to be the entire Underground), revealing himself to be Asriel Dreemurr to the human. After defeating Asriel by reminding their friends of who they used to be, weakening his grip on them, Asriel willingly releases them back into the room he got them from. Talking to Alphys reveals that she thinks Toriel is cute, but since she has Undyne now, she will stop pursuing either Toriel or Asgore. She even admits that she hopes they get back together, planning to write fanfiction about them.

Backtracking to Snowdin has the Bear villager tell the player that Alphys had to open up about her failed experiments on the monster SOULs to Asgore and Toriel. Though Asgore forgave her, Toriel didn't and fired her on the spot, Alphys does not seem to upset about this.

Deltarune
None of the events of Undertale seem to have happened in this universe, instead of royalty, Toriel is a regular schoolteacher, with Alphys as her coworker. Talking to the receptionist in Chapter 1 reveals that Toriel is responsible for Alphys getting the job in the first place.

Their only direct interaction so far in Chapter 2; in a hidden event, should Kris go deeper down the hallway with a ball of junk on their head (long story), they will catch their mom and Alphys have a little chat about them. Toriel will ask Alphys if Kris is doing okay in their class, aware of her child's strange behavior. Alphys will notice Kris staring at her and will lie through her teeth about Kris being "normal" to their mother. Relieved, Toriel gives Alphys a few words of encouragement.

Fanon
Alphiel was never a popular ship in the Undertale fanbase, due to interfering with not only the canon Alphyne, but also popular Toriel ships Asgoriel and Soriel.

Since neither ship is set in stone in the Deltarune universe, some have played around with the idea of it becoming canon without interfering with with other ships.
