Child Reader Goes to the Factory

Reader is twelve or thirteen in this. Reader’s parent is also gen neutral, but reader refers to them as both ‘mom’ and ‘dad’. Parent feels really empty and overly formal.

- Today was supposed to be Take Your Child to Work Day, but after last year when you accidentally walked in on the other night guard putting on a bloodstained bunny costume, you decided to opt out.

- After your dad left for work, you decide to explore their room. You find an unopened package with a tape and a letter inside.

- You knew that your mom worked there (Mostly because they complained about how they got fired a week in because they missed a day), but not much beyond that. You glance at the well-loved Playtime Co. toys sitting on your dresser. You’re always down for some adventure, and maybe you can finally get a Poppy doll to complete your collection...

- By the time you get to the factory, your legs are burning and you don’t want to look at another bike for a year. You force your way inside the building and immediately take note of the blood everywhere.

“...This is gonna be that damned pizzeria all over again, isn’t it?”

 - Deciding to keep a look out for potential murderers, you grab a too big grabpack, enter the main building, and see...

Huggy Wuggy

- You run up to Huggy and give him the biggest hug you can- manage.

- Holy crap, he’s just as soft as your own Huggy! Oh, and you remember when yours was still this blue. You want nothing more than to hug him for the rest of the night!

- But alas, you came here for a reason, so you let go of Huggy so you can go fix the power.

“I’ll be right back,” you say, partially as a joke. “Don’t go anywhere.”

- Of course, you freak out when you realize he’s gone.

- Throughout the night, you keep seeing glimpses of Huggy. On the one hand, it reminds you of when you were little and pretended to hide from your toys in Hide and Seek. On the other, you’ve seen enough horror movies with your friends to know that you’re probably going to die tonight.

- The chase eventually ensues and you jump into the vents like there’s no tomorrow. You almost take a few wrong turns but you manage to get away from Huggy. You see a large crate sitting above you and try to hit it with your grabpack.

- You miss by a mile, and Huggy slams through the vent door and races towards you. You scream as he grabs you, but you calm down when you realize you’re still alive.

- Once you’re calm, you look down and see a series of catwalks. You ask Huggy if he wants to come with you, but he points back at the vents. You’re unsure if he’s telling you to leave or that he can’t come with you.

- You do eventually get what he’s trying to say and promise to come back for him. But in the meantime, you ask him not to kill oh god has he been killing people or just roughing them up so they’ll leave hurt anyone who comes into the building, just in case your dad comes, too.

- After Huggy leaves, you find a door with a giant Poppy flower painted over it. The warnings around it worry you, but you didn’t come so far just to give up now.

- Eventually, you find a glass case, and inside of it is...

Poppy Playtime

- When Poppy first sees you, she’s confused. The factory has been closed for years, so what’s a kid doing here?

- Originally, she had planned for whoever came back to help her stop The Prototype, but now she wants to get you out of here before you get yourself killed.

- At some point, she hears you say that you’ve always wanted a Poppy doll. She’s worried that you’re going to take her home and treat her like a normal toy. When you find out, you wholeheartedly assure her that you think she’s just as much a person as you are.

“Yeah, it’d be nice to have a Poppy doll to complete the gang, but that’s not what you are. You’re my friend, and you’re just as real as me or my dad.”

- And just like that, you’ve become Poppy’s favorite person. You were already in her top five for freeing her, but you just became number one.

- She tells you about all of the reject toys and you both laugh over some of the silly things she’s seen Huggy do.

- Simply put, she’s your buddy, and you promise yourself that you’re not leaving without her. You’re still not sure how you’ll explain her and Huggy to your mom, but your sure you’ll come up with something.

- And when Poppy is snatched up, you jump into the pit after her without a second thought...
