Sleep Mode
It's pretty cute in Sleep Mode. ^u^ I think it runs snoring noises so kids won't freak out if they find it inactive like this.
More Headcanon material~ Sun/Moon is technically the first of the "face character" robots Fazbear Entertainment LLC finished for the Mega-Pizzaplex, and as such it turned out was the most expensively built. Post-completion of the Daycare Attendant, the head honchos cheaped out big time for the Glamrock Band and other character attractions in various ways. Along with neglecting to implement the same advanced autonomous Security Protocols as this skrunkly in the other robots, they also majorly curtailed the power capacities and recharging methods available (at first, only for profit-saving shenanigans, but then later as a means to better control the Glamrock's behavior by ensuring they couldn't rebel or leave as they'd shut down aka die if they tried to function without the souped-up Recharge Stations for more than 2.5 hours or so).
As such, the Daycare Attendant is the only robotic entertainer to possess a proper Sleep Mode, alongside three different methods of charging its (much more efficient and high-tech) batteries. Sun/Moon can use the Recharge Stations, yes, but more often will either plug itself into an ordinary extension cord or, funnily enough, replenish the fluid reservoir inside the generator of its... sugar batteries... YES. Sugar batteries are a real frickin' thing by the way, and they actually are waaaay more efficient and store waaaay more power than even the modern-day lithium-ion batteries. Their voltage latency is much lower, though, just about requiring this fun robot friend to enter Sleep Mode while the new sugar-liquid charges the batteries back up, which takes maybe an hour, sometimes two if it's especially worn down. Of course, it can run and run and run at peak function for like... 16 straight hours afterwards, so it's a fair trade-off.
GEE, I wonder what it prefers to use as the glucose-riddled fluid. XD There's a reason it brings up the Fizzy Faz... though it is technically only supposed to use a plain mix of water and the crude maltodextrin-riddled Fizzy Faz Syrup base... Yeah, that sounds like something this company would do: Feed your kids cheap sugary swill that is technically fit for human consumption, but more appropriate being funneled into literal machinery. XD
