day 2 of this account, wooooooo… (i’m exhausted.)

[craftboxsys]

”I can’t keep doing this, Princess…”

she had her book open, i could see the map.. i felt horrible, she was crying the entire time after we left after that last case.

“You can’t just… leave me here-.. Really? After- After all we’ve been through together..? This is where you end it?” i didn’t mean for it to sound so… guilt trip-y.

“You know I love you.. And I want you to be happy and safe?”

i do. er.. i did

“I don’t understand..! You being here with me is what makes me happy! You make me feel safe!”

she looked at me, up from her book… she didn’t say anything for a bit, just stared sadly. i’m sorry i never apologized. i should have been faster with my words, it should’ve been more clear than it was in that moment… i should’ve known better.

“I hope you get your life together, and that you do somehow manage to live a long time.. Maybe when you’re out of the dangerous things we can live with my papa..?”

and then she left me there. left me to deal with my problems alone again, it’s not like i really had anyone else to turn to. maybe that was the dangerous part at this point… maybe if i’d tried harder she could’ve stayed. maybe if i got into trouble a little less…

[craftboxsys]

i don’t even think i solved the case after sh3 left, i just caved and turned in my badge

[craftboxsys]

i remember my last case being really, really major. it was supposed to be… “easy”? that’s what they said anyways, and uh… it really wasn’t.

it was trying to find the source of who kept tampering with dip and shipping it in bulk to C.O.G.S inc. cause at a certain point the manufacturers started getting fed up with toons. they wanted toontown paved and cleared out of all the goofy shit, and i guess it turned into a huge extermination thing to toons outside of toontown.

actively witch hunted them (heh… yeah, nod to prester in my district) — the override bug was transferred to a lot of them save for a few i can remember like buck [natural psycho], belle, graham, and i think someone else? these were just all the documented ones. there was a huge file i was uh, given at a certain point. i didn’t read through a lot of it, mostly skimmed it.

pancake was fully involved in the last case, since it revolves around chip as well since there were two halves of the case.

first half: figure out who keeps sending the dip and exterminating toons, equipping new cog models with weaponized dip in the manufacturing plant, etc.

then the second half: situate the cases that keep coming up of toons being attacked by cogs with the override bug.

it was… a lot, and a majority of the agency was already out doing their part of checking things out. i took pancake to cosmo’s and flint was puppy guarding the street for us. uhh, told pancake to stay in the pizzeria part of the place while i went to go talk to the guy himself. let’s just uh… say it didn’t go as planned? i whispered the information to pancake and got caught, threatened, and we had to book it. pancake did tp taxi get away to the central playground for safety purposes. uh…

some more things happened and she hit me with the “i can’t keep doing this, princess..” and she left me…

district memories of managers master list

because like, two of my friends were actively curious and encouraged me to talk about my memories of the managers, so! i guess we'll start with the more tame of the two sets of memories. also heads up, these are mostly just for people i actively remember being around a lot or have actual memories of. uhh, people like cosmo, belle, tawney, holly, etc. aren't included because i was never around them enough to have an actual input on them as cogs.

anyways! memories under the cut. it starts with clash mems in green then my district in red.

benjamin biggs; very into sharing drama with people, i've listened to him maybe 5-6 times just go off about a set of cogs and then told me about rain & derrick man. outside of that i didn't really talk to him much? i've heard more from other toons if anything like how he's a bitch to fight because half the time he just taunts people then gets really loud with the stupid ringing.

buck ruffler; i more ran into buck a lot because we both had a mutual attachment to gambling. like, we became friends (sorta) over me running into him to play slots or something. quack was really fun to be around, really loud like me. we both matched each others energies really intensely and if anyone else was around they'd get annoyed super fucking fast. uhh buck didn't really give a shit that i broke the filter and thought it was really funny, we'd get into cussing matches in the server when it was dead so i didn't get caught by pete /silly

chip revvington; was NOT a fan of me by any means, i'm a horrible influence on pancake so he'd get really annoyed when he found out i was hanging out with her a lot. not to mention i was her SISTER FIGURE? outrageous! uhh, chip tended to be really quiet and reserved when we were alone though, it was really awkward but there were a few times when i was upset that he actually dropped the "i hate you" act and just kind of awkwardly asked me if i was okay and if he could help at all. i didn't really know what to do but it usually lead to just me being held. even if he hated me he kinda sucked at it /silly

dave brubot; really weird friendship with this guy. i hit him with a golf cart, he emoted, and slid/ran off for a good couple weeks before i'd see him again. uhh, met up again after i'd tripped and got squashed by a flowerpot? i got scooped up, dusted off, and set back down on the ground like nothing happened. can't remember what he said to me but it was probably something something are you okay or something. not quite like that, that's not the brubot fashion but yeah. he left again when i was sure i was alright, gave me his number, and i just kind of held onto it for a couple months? i didn't do anything with it, i just focused on my tasks for the most part before getting to the kudos board for mezzos melodyland and really just kinda went "huh. i forgot i had this." to the number? called it on the phone later that night and nobody picked up. but i think that was because he was performing, i later got a whisper from pancake about it asking if i called hymn. and uh, yeah. i got teased for a while about having his number and all that but we became really close friends. i'd go and visit him out of the blue during the day since his shows were at night. we just did a bunch of useless shit together a lot of the times, it was really fun... kind of domestic. i miss hymn, he's goofy as hell.

misty monsoon; i don't remember a whole ton about misty but i do remember us not liking each other at all for a period of time. uh, we sat down eventually and just started talking on the docks together. talked about exes, life goals, what we want to see out of the world... kind of just deep conversations. i asked her about mary since they were together and she told me about how their relationship is. i got advice from her about some other things and got told to never change who i am for anyone else. people'll love me if they see past all my dumb shit anyways and stick by my side if they really do care.

graham & flint bonpyre; the two of them were married in the clash mems i have, they're very very closeknit with each other. i used to steal stuff from graham's place in spite for like, the LONGEST time. pancake and flint both had to keep convincing me to bring things back myself and apologize in person, but then graham would go and taunt me about it. so, we kind of had this on/off frenemy situation going on. shakes my fist, clash graham you're a bitch!!!!!! as for flint he was generally really nice to me, he and pancake were in a qpr with each other so i saw flint more than graham. we'd chat with each other from time to time but otherwise i really didn't run around or into him too often. i'd stop and say hi if i saw him on the street over time because of pancake.

cathal bravecog; barely remember cathal but he was cool, we'd hangout pretty often just to play video games or just watch tv. i had a tendency to just pass out on his floor or the desk when we were in the middle of watching a movie or something on the longer side of things for time frame things. shrugs, would have to say? pretty cool guy tbh.

and now... onto the general gist of my district managers. i'm not typing out individual things like i did for clash memories because my head's starting to hurt trying to force myself to remember this stuff, but: like i said in the one post before about them all being their own brands of insane? yeah. that's really not far off. so far the only one i've really typed up anything for is graham because i was in and out of lullaby lane a lot since it connected to mezzos melody land.

graham, holly, prester, etc. were all programmed to be more of promotional kinds of bots. like, living... walking talking advertisements for human corporations or the idea of human corporations abroad. graham was more humanoid compared to the rest of the managers because he was meant to be like, a physical model or representation of humans to the toons since humans didn't frequent in toontown enough for everyone to be aware of them.

i don't remember exactly what all corporations they were promoting but it was probably a mix of a bunch of bullshit. i think a majority of my memories were just being involved in maybe one or two of their personal lives (chip and flint through pancake) and anyone else i hardly knew outside of running into them on the off chance i was out and about in their assigned playground districts.

i wanna say out of all of them i've seen mary the most? we're friends (ish) because of the one case i had that weaponized a cog with dip and was blasting toons with it in barnacle boatyard. it was contaminating the water so i had to work with a group of other people in the detective agency to figure out what the fuck to do to get this thing out of here. then mary rolls up and blasts it with a shit ton of water when it's core was exposed. so yeah, good relationship with mary at the very least. that and i wanna say dave and i were on really neutral terms in my district.

i'd swing by from time to time like clash mems but we didn't do much, it was more to just check if anything new happened related to a really long open case. uhh, i think i saw more of the managers after i stopped the detective things but they were all literally so fucking crazy at times it was a little off putting & scary.

not to mention there was a weird bug floating around for a while that transferred override codes to a couple of the other managers. chip didn't mean for that one to happen but it just did, he wasn't programmed with the override to begin with. if i remember right, he had something put in him when he was taken out in a fight maybe once. the details were really limited on that.

anything else relating to them were from things i'd heard on the offhand.

additionally for stuff with buck since i'm pretty sure people know from the past posts i've made on him that i have strong feelings towards my districts buck because, well uh... he's tried to kill me a decent few times.

[craftboxsys]

I love mediating system situations.. /Nsrs

[craftboxsys]

he’s from my district. i shouldn’t be too surprised because of how he acts but from the sound of it he’s been here before i actually even processed i was and i’m not sure how to take this.

[craftboxsys]

shoutout to pancake cuddleroni, the best big kitty protector a gal could ask for

[craftboxsys]

sooo instead of freaking out about stuff i'm just gonna ramble about some memories i have with my sister.

i don't really remember how pancake and i met, i think it was just pure coincidence we ended up on the same street at the same time with each other (lullaby lane). she caught me trying to go into the fast asleep - all star suites as a low laffer because i liked the vibes of the place after running around all the playgrounds for the day.

uhh, she kind of just started chatting me up? small talk... dumb little questions that were really awkward coming from her but she seemed genuinely curious about me. h3r questions went from "what's your favorite color?" to "why are you even out here yet?" and uh. she took me from the street, by the hand/wrist really gently like "do you want me to help you with tasks for a little while?" -- but this is more primarily from... clash memories.

that portion of meeting her is so... it's a little similar in my district but i more got lost in mezzos when i was working on helping one of the detectives with a case. i liked uh, learning information about the history of toontown and the human world outside of it and everything. i didn't really leave myself except for maybe once? it was really overwhelming. pollution's just normal, and i mean. it's normal for toontown in some parts, too, but it's just not natural? and it's so dark out there, so uh.

i digress-. but uh, i just kind of bumped into pancake in mezzos in my district. she kept apologizing to me because i hit the ground really awkwardly, got up, dusted myself off, and just kinda looked at her a little funny? then uh, turned into us being friends for a month and i dropped the "y'know, you're kind of like my only family right now." and she stopped, turned and looked at me like... sh3 was gonna cry really hard because of... something? that parts fuzzy, but i think it's because i'm this... really loud and energetic person who bounces around all the damn time and i'm. like, i describe myself as a "lone wolf" half the times and to -- i guess? -- have that dropped on h3r was really surprising but uh... touching? maybe?

uh, to date if we go off of district timeline for me i haven't seen her in 2 years. i miss h3r. i miss h3r a lot and i wish i had the opportunity to properly apologize to h3r for getting myself into so much trouble over the time we were friends, and i get that i wasn't always right with pursuing the crazier options in life around her. i wish she'd come back and hear me out tbh... i know she cared about me a lot and that that's why she had to leave but, still. i wish i had the chance to fix it

[craftboxsys]

every other buck in the world is fine i love you guys you're so dumb /aff.

get that bread!!!!!! /stupid

[craftboxsys]

this is the one time i will post buck slander because otherwise buck's fine from my district? but yeah no he is actively fucking insane i'm pretty sure. like straight up psychotic levels, and i'm also PRETTY SURE the buck insys shares my district SO.

[craftboxsys]

"corporate claims" is really loose btw, cogs were more like walking talking advertisements for industries in the human parts of the world or uh, outside of toontown.

[craftboxsys]

What breed of insane is Mary?

Should I be scared?

OMG MARY... tbh? mary wasn't THAT BAD compared to some other cog managers from/in my district. uhh, mary was pretty hardcore when it came to fighting back toons that did go out and pester her. he was just really fed up with a lot of it because most of the toons that did would get greened so hard they didn't wanna go back to fight her AGAIN for the FIFTEENTH TIME but like. i think mary was mostly just getting irritated 9 times out of 10 over toons pestering her constantly.

i never explicitly fought him because i didn't really see a need to? i kinda went against a lot of the resistance that was pushing to fight back. i think it was just me and pancake who were sympathizers for the most part cause i mean, i get they came in to take over and all that but in my district they didn't even explicitly do anything? they were made by humans to expand corporate claims into toontown or whatever

i actually would chat with mary from time to time about it cause i am/was super fucking nosy about what all was going on. i know for sure like, tawney wasn't a fan of it and really didn't care for it but then there's OTHER PEOPLE. (COUGHS BUCK COUGHS).

[craftboxsys]

i kind of want an excuse to ramble about my district cog managers

[craftboxsys]

crazy shit goes down when they think they aren't being recorded, little do they know they;re always being documented /j

like liddol lab rats.............. we are all in a TEST TUBE.

ft. an extra pancake & princess

[craftboxsys]

on my way to go kiss dave brubot (real) /stupid

[craftboxsys]

look at how autistic i am. clash princess never change /stupid
