Part 2 Daycare

Huh. This place is really impressive. And it seems even bigger now that there are no more visitors roaming around. It's suddenly so much quieter that you could almost believe you've landed in another reality. "Sure. I'm the last person in this world. A lost soul doomed to wander around this halls forever," you joke to yourself, smiling. You will surely get used to this sight. In fact, it's not so bad after all. You walk up the escalator, which has already been turned off, to get to the upper area. Some of the staff bots are already on their way, armed with mops and buckets of water, to do their daily… nightly work. They're followed by a smaller group of wet floor bots, each equipped with a round pair of ears on their little monitor heads. Whoever came up with their design did a great job, because the sight of them definitely makes you smile. You give a quick wave to the bots you pass. You have no idea if they even notice you much or are able to understand you, but ignoring them when you run into each other also seems wrong. If they were human colleagues you wouldn't ignore them either! Now and then you can still hear an automatic message being played over the loudspeakers in one of the areas you pass. But the music you heard during the opening hours has long since fallen silent. So let's see. From up here you have several options how to continue. Either by elevator or… you could also take a closer look at the daycare area. For some reason, Jeff left that out of your tour. You fold up the map again and put it in your side pocket of your uniform jacket, walk around the photo booths to the right and towards the passageway that leads to the daycare and the playground.

From here on, you can't possibly get lost. The colorful lettering with the cute drawing of a rainbow and stars appears again and again on the doors and walls and shows you your way. Here and there you look what is hidden behind certain doors. However, it's mostly empty restrooms where just a few of the little wet floor bots hang out and stare at you curiously out of their yellow eyes. "Hi, didn't mean to bother you," you murmur to two of them, before gently pulling the door shut behind you again and keep walking on. You pass a small fountain whose water is still running. Wasn't it supposed to be turned off by now? It seemed like a waste of electricity to leave it running after hours. Not to mention that the lights on the artificial palm trees were still burning. Well… it wasn't your job to tell the company how to spend their money. Hm. You pause. You notice the posters and drawings on the walls. A cartoon sun and moon are portrayed on them. "Sundrop and Moondrop?" you read aloud. You're not sure if these are the names of the characters or if it's just an advertisement for the candy pictured on them. Although… wait, a moon? Could that be an illustration of the safety program? Jeff had mentioned that he worked at the daycare. Right? Clearly curious, you walk through the last door that leads you into the reception area of the daycare. You freeze for a moment as you see the huge construct in front of you. What the…

It's more of these gold-painted statues. On your tour, you've already seen the ones representing the band members. But the ones before you don't show the band, they show the figures from the posters. Haha… wow… the two statues looked a bit intimidating, which was probably due to the poses. Standing right in front of them, you feel like they tower over you in an ominous way. If they started moving right here and now, you'd probably get the scare of your life! You look at the two figures for a while. They are dressed in slightly peculiar clothing. Their style doesn't really seem to fit in with the rest of the Glamrocks. Must be a conscious decision when the company designed them. "Let's hope that the real ones aren't as big as these," you say with a halfhearted smile and head for the barrier gate at the stairs. Through the grid you can already make out the first details of the playground. The hall is truly spacious! You can't wait to take a closer look at the facility and step towards the gate, which automatically opens for you when you get close to it. It seems that it also reacts to the chip in your name tag. Cool. At first glance, you didn't see anyone down there, but that doesn't mean much considering the way everything is so laid out that it's hard to see in every nook and cranny. You jog down the stairs, sometimes taking two steps at a time instead of one until you reach the bottom. Large glass window fronts give you a first glimpse of the place down here.

The daycare somehow reminds you more of an oversized indoor playground than a classic nursery or kindergarten. Everything is colorful and bright and filled with a wide variety of fun playground equipment. You have no doubt that the kids are having a great time here. Curious, you peek inside through the open wooden gate. It's probably not actual wood but looks real enough. Wow, the jungle gyms don't look bad at all, and you're almost itching to climb to the top of one of them to see what kind of view it would give you of the rest of the area. It still doesn't seem like anyone is here. Despite the lights still being fully turned on. Maybe the cleaning bots will come to mop through later? You think about calling for someone, but you don't know who to call. You could just go in and walk around a bit. See if everything is okay. After all, this is your new job!

You grin a little, want to take your first step, and stop. You notice the play mats that cover the floor. You frown. Can you just walk in here with your shoes on? They're not really dirty - you've taken extra care to put on a clean pair for work that isn't covered in dirt - but there are usually a lot of kids in here. Maybe even some toddlers that still crawl around on their hands. So you unceremoniously take off your shoes and leave them in front of the gate. On socks - your favorite ones with the flower pattern - you enter the playground with a clear conscience and start to look around with great interest. In addition to all kinds of toys and play equipment, you also discover a few scattered stuffed plushies of the local mascots. It is logical somehow that they use their own products in the daycare center. Probably brings the kids to beg their parents for an own plush toy of their favorite band member. You continue walking across the mats, discovering a ball pit connected to a slide. Oh, so that was the hole you saw on the upper platform at the reception. Definitely a fun way to get in here. As a kid, you would have loved this! You turn around and see what looks like a counter some distance away, a little different from the rest in here. You recognize several computer screens and other technical stuff. Most likely, the place over there is for the staff from this area. Maybe an attendant or supervisor working with the animatronic. Jeff did mention that the moon worked here. Maybe that includes its counterpart, the sun as well? You run your left hand over the bars of one of the many jungle gyms. The bars feel like they're sheathed in rubber or something. A little flexible, but firm. Each of the large jungle gym complexes has several exits and entrances. In this one, you can see slides leading from the top points back to the ground, or small tunnels and tubes inside connecting the different sections.

During the day it must be quite busy here. The image of a cartoon Roxanne smiles at you from above the jungle gym. You gently tug on one of the bars. It is absolutely tight, though, and you don't doubt that it would hold the weight of a child or your own. There is still no one around and again the urge rises inside you to just give in to your childish impulse. "Oh well, why not," you mutter, giving in to it. You slide your foot between the more than large enough gaps between the bars and climb all the way to the top without much trouble. "Hah, piece of cake." This is nothing compared to a climbing wall or the countless times you've climbed up some trees since you were a kid. The bars make it so much easier for you to get a good grip. As you reach the top, you push yourself over the edge. You're careful not to accidentally slip off of the bars with your feet to not end up caught in one of the gaps. Instead, you just sit down and enjoy the new panorama with a cheerful smile on your lips. Yep, you like the view from up here. For a while, you simply take in your surroundings. The ceiling lights shaped like clouds, the small "stone wall" surrounding the ball pit. The platform attached to the wall with the curtains and the tower drawn on the wall around it. You wonder what it's good for. It doesn't seem to be possible to get up there from this side. But it looks way too elaborate for a mere decorative element. Suddenly you hear a movement. It sounds like someone is dragging something through the area. And with every passing second you can make the noise out more clearly. Confused, you crane your neck and try to pinpoint where the sound is coming from.

A… a giant plush version of Freddy emerges from behind the jungle gym with the Monty display. Your hands clasp the bars to your right and left a little tighter. You lean forward a bit, squint your eyes a little, and see only two thin arms wrapped around the stuffed animal from behind. Looks like someone is here after all… The teddy is carried another step forward and it looks like whoever was carrying it is half buried under it. The person abruptly stops. Doesn't move anymore, but doesn't put the stuffed toy on the ground either. You tilt your head a little to the side. That thing must be awfully uncomfortable to carry alone. "Need some help?" you call out from your elevated position to the figure hidden behind the plush Freddy. You don't get an immediate response. It takes a few seconds before the stuffed bear is set down on the ground. And to your surprise, it is not a human face that appears behind it, but a yellow sun! For a moment you stare down at it in surprise. Somehow you had assumed to meet a human being. But that is no human down there. It's… an animatronic. Like the one on the poster. Oh. Oooooh! The statue! Of course. You're so stupid. That's why the two statues were placed up there! So the moon and the sun both worked here at the daycare. Well… that made some sense. Kind of. Maybe. From here, you can only see a pair of white eyes staring up at you. At least, that's what it looks like, because his face has lifted to point it in your direction. But it's hard for you to make out finer details from this distance.

"Hi," you smile at him a little sheepishly and raise a hand to wave at him. Your feet dangle a little in the air. Okay, now you do feel a teeeeeeeny bit silly for sitting up here. Especially because he still hasn't said a word. Maybe he's overwhelmed and doesn't know how to react to a situation like this. It's probably not often that a strange adult sits on one of the jungle gyms after closing time. Or at all. Yep… that could be the problem. To your surprise, he just leaves the plushie and comes closer to the climbing frame you're sitting on. His head tilts… no, rotates slightly to the side. His gaze is still directed straight at you. "I'm the new guy from security," you explain as it occurs to you that maybe you should introduce yourself properly so he doesn't think you're some crazy intruder, and you call out your name to him as well. His head now rotates over to the other side. You see what looks like individual spikes moving slightly around his head, retracting and then extending again. The sight is a bit strange and you're not sure what it means. "I… um… wait a minute, I'll come down," before you continue talking, you might want to climb down to the sun-shaped animatronic first so you can look each other in the face properly. You don't wait, and climb back down from the jungle gym almost as fast as you made it up. No problem at all! When you feel the soft floor of the play mats under your feet again, you spin around to face him. "Hi again," you say, throwing a smile at him. Wow… now that you're standing here in front of him like this, you realize just how darn tall he is! Thankfully, not as tall as his golden counterpart. To be honest, you like his real colors a lot more, too. They have a friendly look to them? Cheerful? Something along those lines.

"You… are the new guard?" Thank god! He finally talks. It had started to feel a bit awkward that he stayed silent for so long. Still, he sounds a little surprised while speaking. Well, no wonder considering the circumstances. His gaze falls on your name tag, then on your face. You have the feeling that his eyes, which strangely enough have no pupils or iris at all, look brighter for a moment than they already do. "Ah! Ahahaha, I see! Right, right. I forgot we had a new face to welcome here with us today!" His voice almost sounds a tad too excited. Like he's going out of his way to sound overly cheerful. But since this is the first time you two speak to each other, you can't tell if that might be normal for him. Instead, you notice that he begins to gesture much more noticeably. His hands are literally whizzing through the air while talking. No comparison at all to before, where he had seemed almost as stiff as an oak.

"Yeah. That would be me, then. It's my first day… or more like my first night here," you confirm with a bit of an embarrassed grin. "Sorry if I startled you a little," you point to the climbing frame behind you with a small nod of your head and look at him with an apologetic smile. "Not at all! It's no problem! Not in the least! It was just… surprising! That's right, a teensy bit surprising! I didn't expect to find anyone up there! Doesn't happen usually, does it? The little ones aren't allowed to climb up the outside of the jungle gyms, you know. Not at all. That's a big no-no. After all, they could fall and hurt their tiny little selves. And we wouldn't want that, right?" It's impressive how normal he sounds. The way he moves. Bringing his hands together and nudging his fingertips together in turn in a thoughtful motion before pulling his hands apart again and waving them around. Like a real person, it occurs to you. You stare at him, fascinated. It's honestly your first time interacting with an animatronic or something comparable. You've heard here and there how real the Fazbear Company animatronics can appear, but you didn't know if people were exaggerating or not. But experiencing it for yourself is something else entirely. It feels incredibly real. Maybe today's A.I.s kind of already were. And if they weren't, it felt like they were damn close to become real beings.

You realize that you have completely forgotten to say anything. So you make up for it as fast as you can. "Sorry again about that. I just… couldn't help myself when I saw how easy it was to get up there, I guess. But I solemnly vow," you stand up a little straighter, place your hand over the place where your heart is as if to make an oath, and put on your most serious face. "Never to do such a thing in front of the children here, so you don't have to worry about them turning into a bunch of copycats," you finish, grinning a bit from the silliness. Surprised, you notice how his smile seems a little wider. Either he liked your performance or he's laughing at you. You could live with both.

"I hope we will get along well," you add with a smile and hold out your hand to him. However, for some reason he hesitates to take it. The rays around his head move again. Just a tad. A little confused you lower your hand again as you realize that he is probably not a friend of handshakes. That's okay, too. No big deal... "Sure! Sure we will! It's always nice to meet new friends! And," he extends his hand in the air, index finger raised. "Your oath has been heard. Still, you shouldn't be climbing around up there either. It's simply against the rules. Too dangerous. It would be a shame if you fell and we had to scrape you off the ground," you grin a little, laughing at the last part of his sentence because you didn't expect him to make such a joke. "It's not half as hard as going up a climbing wall, but fine. Your playground your rules," you add with a smile, raising your hands in mock surrender.

"By the way... Can I ask for your name?" He stares at you in surprise. Then his hands shoot up to his face to make his surprise even more obvious. He gasps theatrical. You can hear a soft tinkling of bells as he moves. "Oh no! How could I have forgotten! Today just doesn't seem to be my day! How terribly rude of me! I haven't even introduced myself yet! That's no good. We must change that immediately. Forgive me, friend. You can call me Sun." Again, you grin a little. "Sun. Got it. That's pretty easy to remember." It's not hard to guess why he was named like this, of all things. And at least now you know that Sundrop must be the name of the candy then. Your eyes linger on his face again. The engravings in it give it a lot of depth. There are small indentations on his nose that, with a little distance, look like freckles. A curved line that runs below and above his right eye like a tiny vine. Bright yellow spikes that are probably meant to represent rays of sunlight. Your eyes move on to the red puffy collar around his neck. It’s all warm colors with him, isn’t it? Your gaze travels further over the joints of his shoulders, along his arms and down to his wrists with the red ribbons around them. Oh, there are the little bells you heard as soon as he gestured more wildly again. His fingers look quite flexible. His body has a bit of a wooden puppet to it. The one that artists sometimes use as a reference. Only he looks much more detailed. His outfit has something of a jester. Everything about him somehow radiates warmth and cheerfulness. Absolutely not intimidating, even though he's so much taller than you. But the way he towers over you like that… The flat, round face, the long rays sticking out from his head like petals, he reminds you of… one of the sunflowers from your garden! The thought makes you smile on the spot.

"Soooooo… to come back to my first question. Do you need any help with that big fellow over there?" you ask, pointing back over to the stuffed toy he has left lying around. Curious, you look up at him. Ready to help him out. His gaze wanders from you to the plush Freddy and back again. "That's mighty kind of you friend. But please do not bother yourself with it! It's my job to clean up the daycare as soon as all the little ones are picked up from their parents. Cleaning, tidying up, putting everything back in order! All done in no time! Not a problem at all for silly ole me!" You look at him with a tilted smile. Is he trying being considerate of you? "Honestly. I don't mind lending you a hand for a bit. I'm quite good at carrying heavy stuff around!" you assure him, and it is true, after all. "Besides, just between you and me. You'd be doing me a huge favor if you said yes. I'd would give me a good excuse to hug a giant Freddy plushie without it hurting my reputation. So basically you would be helping me", what kind of reputation that should be, you don't really know. You are just looking for a reason to offer him your help without making him feel bad about it. And if you are honest, you are a little curious about how this oversized teddy bear feels.

You try to keep a serious face as you look at Sun, whose face has come a little closer to yours. He seems to be examining you carefully. Maybe he suspects what you are trying to pull off. If so, he doesn't bring it up, because as he stands back up and puts his hands together, he says: "Perhaps a little help wouldn't hurt, indeed. It would go a lot faster. Easier. All right, friend! You've convinced me", he starts to move with big steps and waves you to follow him while his face remains turned towards you the whole time. Without hesitation, you follow him. "Where do you want him to move?" you ask, and Sun points to the jungle gym with a row of children's chairs and tables in front of it. "Over there, please." The face of Chica's cartoon self is attached to its frame. "Okay, alright!", you give a motivated nod and line up behind the big plush Freddy who, oddly enough, has a different design than the one you've seen in the pictures of the website. Whatever. You put your arms around the plushie's belly and lift it up. It feels super soft and cuddly. Okay, you could definitely imagine yourself burying your face in the plush toy or using it as a pillow for a power nap. However, good Freddy here is also heavier than he looks at a first glance. Sun helps you out right away by putting his hands around the bottom of the stuffed bear and lifting it up. Together you can carry him much easier to the place where Sun wants him to be. Together you carefully set him down and lean him against the play structure so that he sits upright in front of it. You would offer Sun a high-five for your good teamwork if you didn't kind of suspect that it would end up like your offer for a handshake. Instead, you stuff your hands into your jacket pockets to avoid the temptation in the first place. "Thanks for the chance to cuddle with your friend here," you say instead. "Don't you worry friend. Your dark secrets are kept safe," Sun retorts, and it sounds almost teasing. You laugh softly at that. "Okay. Good to know. It would be absolutely horrible if anyone ever found out," you emphasize as much as you can, smiling at him. Well… it's probably time for you to slowly head back out of the daycare.

"I guess I should move on now. I've only just started my round. And from what I've seen so far, I've got quite a bit more legwork ahead of me." "Oh yes. The Pizzaplex is indeed very large! Very spacious! Packed full of fun attractions for the whole family! There's so much to see! Have a great time while exploring, friend!" You chuckle softly. "You do realize I'm here to work, right? Even though it might not have seemed that way earlier," you admit, clearing your throat slightly, not able to stop smiling, before taking a few steps towards the exit. "Well, anyway, I'll let you get back to cleaning up in peace instead of standing in your way. I'm sure I'll see you again soon though! I'm on night shift the whole first week. So… see you Sunflower!" you call to him over your shoulder with a bright grin and leave the daycare center through the gate, where you slip back into your shoes. You no longer see him staring after you with a puzzled smile. Or how the fingers of his left hand dig firmly into the ribbons of his right wrist.
