at times, it might be easy for others to overlook the struggle tommy had been handling for so long. there were moments where he had moments where he seemed off, not really present or acting just a little different, but otherwise, seemed to handle it well. never fully losing himself to the glitch. well, at least, until now.
it's hard to pinpoint what caused the shift. maybe it's because he's been losing sleep. maybe it's the stress. maybe the glitch has just gotten stronger. but she had stepped out for a second, and that's when it happens. when a switch is flipped in his brain and he grabs the switchblade. she comes back, and he's off, moving towards her with the blade.
he lets out a soft laugh at her words, "is that really what you're going with, charlotte? i would have expected more." there is a slight pull at her words, the stirring of tommy in his brain. there's another step forward—not enough to close the distance, but enough to be a threat. more than he was already, at least.
"i have to give you credit, you've definitely caused quite the problems for me."

Mike hadn't put a lot of effort into his costume. At all. He was too old to trick-or-treat, and didn't have many friends his own age to invite him out to parties or movies to celebrate the spooky season, so what was the point in putting effort into a costume he couldn't show off?
But he had to admit, he was starting to wish he'd gone for a little more than just your typical bedsheet ghost for this outing...
"I wouldn't mind being part of a matching set." Mike agreed with a laugh in his voice, exaggerating his shrug as dramatically as possible to be seen from beneath his sheet costume. "What did you have in mind, exactly?"

Awh. Shame about the Jammy Dodgers and Jaffcakes. ❝ What about crisps? ❞ As he pads out of the door he looks up towards her. He scratched his head as Charlie spoke, not so sure what a Baozi was but upon hearing it had chocolate in it and was likely sweet he seemed more enthusiast. ❝ HuH! Ok! ❞ He ran towards the kitchen.
⋆ ★ ❝ Yum-yum! ❞ He knows what chocolate tastes like and he can already test it though he is yet to learn what all the other bits goes into this newfound snack.

@cantfixyou asked: ❝ fuck you, man. i didn’t ask for this. ❞ ( from the last of us prompts? 👀 ) // the last of us starters
DID ANY OF THEM? Did anyone who ever even simply stepped foot in one of these restaurants ever ask for what came of it all? From the children barely involved to the underpaid employees to the victims to the two families at the start of it all... the blood soaking every restaurant hidden behind banners and birthday decorations has never been kind to anyone since the first accident. Michael KNOWS that, but she makes him stall in his words anyway. It's true, that neither of them asked for the way this place has stained them... but there is an unequivocal difference that separates Michael from the rest. He deserves it.
Blood remains on his hands, forever sewn into the decayed cracks of his palms. He shouldn't even be talking with her. Keep himself separate, never let them see too much of everything. If he has to be an asshole to keep her off his tracks, so be it.
He seems to jolt back into his body ( hah, it hasn't been his for years ), shrugging his shoulders as he avoids her gaze. "You're still here, though. You know you could quit any time if you hate it so much, right?" Maybe the night guard shouldn't be endorsing other employees to quit, but really, she'd be better off if she did. "If neither of us want to be here, there's no reason for you to get yourself involved in whatever doesn't get you your paycheck."

HE DIDN’T SPEAK UP OFTEN; he had never been good with words, even back when he’d been a human. He didn’t have many memories of that anymore, but every now and then, he’d run into an old drawing of his, and it would bring him right back. It was scary, and he didn’t like it. But he’d gotten more used to it than before, so he just dealt with it.
But something about BEING A WOLF gave him… almost some type of sixth sense. He could smell changes in the air, changes in emotions. He was always told that dogs could smell fear, and he knew for a fact that it was true now. He’d smelled it probably a thousand times over by this point, but the scent was EXTRA STRONG right now, so strong that Boris hadn’t even thought about it before reaching for her hand.
He wanted to protect her. She deserved protection. Charlie was his FRIEND, one of the only friendly creatures in this godforsaken studio. She was GOOD. She could save them… she could save them all. He would protect her at all costs. He smiled a little as he gave her hand a gentle squeeze back.
“I’m okay.” His voice, as usual, was quiet and shy, words spoken meekly, barely above a whisper. He was afraid of being overheard — by the Searchers, by the Lost Ones, but most of all, BY BENDY HIMSELF. If he was overheard, it could put them BOTH in danger. He looked down at their hands, then back at Charlie’s face. “Are you okay?”

OREL GENTLY GETS DOWN TO HIS GOOD KNEE, TAKING HER WRISTS, offering to help her stand. ❝ Are you okay, lady?❞ He doesn't usually find a face he isn't familiar with around her so naturally he had noticed her. Just in time too she didn't look so good.
❝ Here. Have some water I was going to drink it but you need it more than me.❞ THE BRUNET BOY OFFERS HER A FLASK. No doubt everyone else here had just walked right over her. Strangers weren't exactly greeted with kindness. Then again no one was. Orel, son of the callous, hunter-mayor himself, at least cares enough to stop when he sees someone in need. / @cantfixyou starter

🌙 ( ooooo about bendy and joey in particular? 👀 )
send ‘ 🌙 ’ for my muse to talk about their father // not accepting
deep breath in. bendy expected this topic to come up in conversation eventually. slow exhale out. there are so many things he could say about that man. with none of them being good. manipulative. full of himself. delusional. so many different layers, all intricate && hidden well behind the guise of a hardworking animator.
dreams come true! you just have to keep on dreaming.
the phrases are enough to make his stomach churn.
❝ ...I hardly saw the man. He wasn't present when they created me with the machine, the first person I ever saw was some mechanic, ❞ he swallowed thickly. ❝ I did meet him later on, an that didn't go well. ❞ that is the understatement of a century. but delving into that was not what he wanted to do today.
❝ You can look around an see what he caused. What he inflicted upon others all in some futile search fer fame an money. ❞

@cantfixyou sent: this is real , i’m real . look at me . ( from the dire situations meme, for leia, if you're feelin' it? 👀 )
she'd had bad trips before but this was like nothing she'd ever felt before. it wasn't just bad, it was a creeping dread that felt so heavy it felt physically overwhelming, trapping her in place. she could see and feel that there was someone in front of her, even being able to see the movement of lips, but any sound fell on deaf ears as the rushing noise in her ears drowned anything else out.
' i can't-- i can't understand what you're saying. ' leia squeezed her hand into a tight fist, finding some sense of sensation coming back as she dug her nails into her palm. maybe it was starting to calm down. ' i've got... it feels like cotton in my ears. '

@cantfixyou: “ do you remember anything at all? ”
question prompts / accepting
"what do you mean?" at the very least, she doesn't remember the part of it charlotte is referring to. her previous time at other locations. the more paranormal aspects of the franchise. the fact that shes dead.
"like...in general? i remember quite a lot, actually." it's a drop in the bucket compared to what she's seen, though. "or are you talking about something specific?"

@cantfixyou asked 🍔 - go to a fast food restaurant ( for the date meme, for maria and charlie!! 🥺 👉🏻👈🏻 )
“This is so good,” Marai said, biting into the burger as she leaned back in the booth that they had found, her legs propped up on the rest of the unoccupied seat. She didn’t know if the burger was actually good or if she was just starving from being in the car for so long. She wouldn’t normally consider this to be a date, just going out for fast food while chasing a animatronic serial killer. But she thought that this counted, because she was enjoying spending time with Charlie even if it was a little stressful. And she honestly just wanted a reason to make this moment sappier than it already was. “Try this,” she said, holding out a hot fry to the other.

💬 + tommy, you're afraid to get close to anyone because of what's going on with that glitch in your head
Send 💬 + a rumor and my muse will react to it. / accepting
"Yeah, I mean, of course," he responds, letting out sigh as he halfheartedly tosses a hand up. "I'm scared of everything. I don't want to hurt anyone." Not his family, not his friends, not strangers. He doesn't want any of this. "It just feels like I'm on borrowed time with this."

“It’s big, it’s cold, and no-one can hear you scream in it.” Mike replied with a cheeky smile of his own. He knew a decent amount about space, between his favorite space-set shows from childhood and his sister’s budding fascination with constellations, but the joke made a good opening for Charlie to elaborate. There was no faster way to learn than listening to someone passionate talk about their favorite topic, after all...
And after he’d made her sit through his musical choices for hours three and four of the drive, he owed her a captive audience.

Green eyes fluoresce as they catch her eyes, they are not the same as how she had found them, humming of fresh batteries thrive in their chest. The consequence of such is knowing. The ability to know and understand things that has happened to them - if they can remember - his small, felted hands taken in an attempt to comfort him.
He uses his shoulder to wipe at his face. Hair on his head suddenly full and neatly smoothed back. He seems less confused, more stressed as though they were capable of more than a single thought at a time, that their head was filled with thoughts and maybe that was the problem.
They could at least find some gratitude and relief in the fact that they were not alone right now. It didn’t make it any less terrifying. It didn’t stop their little body from shaking uncontrollably.
Words were hard to force out but when they did it was evidently not as difficult to form a sentence than usual.
⋆ ★ ❝ I- Just remembered something about where we came from. ❞ The other him must have stumbled upon some batteries in this house, else he wouldn’t be fronting right now. They would still be clueless and confused.
⋆ ★ ❝ I can’t- it’s not very clear but I’m worried about my friends. I’m worried that I- ❞ They look down at felted arms, as they slowly retrieve them and place them on their battery pack. ❝ It was a voice. She said that I can’t stay away from home, or rather - THAT HOUSE - for much longer. She’ll put me back somehow. Or she’ll use my friends as a bribe. Something like that - or. Sorry, this isn’t even your problem, is it? You didn’t ask for all this you just took us home, which thanks for that, but I don’t know how much longer I can just stay here knowing my friends are still suffering or how long I- we can be free; here with you you to begin with before it...oh! ❞ He’s frustrated. Why was his memory still terrible? ❝ Goes back to the way it was before. ❞
He would scowl at the wallpaper even with his mind so clear it was still impossible to say something Charlie would understand, it was just too complicated to explain. Eyes softening as much as eyes such as his could. ❝ Not that we don’t want to stay here. We do. You’ve been kind to me - to us. I suppose you just didn’t expect us to come with so much trouble. ❞

✟ Ƒ Ƒ。✟ - ❝ OOooooh don’t be that way! You’ve got love the classics! ❞ If it isn’t evident by the ever so crazed look in his eyes; he’s enjoying this. ❝ I know I do. ❞ . He may have accidentally been a bad show man and repeated a line twice to many. Call it excitement. He always brought all of his energy to this show. If she managed to escape? It would irk him some and yet GLASS HALF FULL; he’d be able to apprehend her all over again.
Still he turns the voltage up a notch just for a little added heat. ❝ Ooops too late, French Fry. And you really are going to FRY ❞ He did notice the wobbling, a small scowl on his face. He’d better fry her quick and get it over with before she finds any way out.
There was not much he could do from out here aside from take action if the little weasel did some how pop and go. No. He would have to be careful the voltage didn’t interfere with HIMSELF if that happened.
Funtime Freddy was one of the scarce few animatronics here who refused to use the charging station.He found other means to charge himself. Suppose it was really projecting all this encasing people within such a confine space filled with electrical currents surging through them.
✟ Ƒ Ƒ。✟ - ❝ What will you do now, pet? Tell me how it feels. Do you feel all the electricity cooking your brain yet? I hope you didn’t think I’d make this easy for you after our little talk about you being a hero. Why you can’t expect to be the hero without someone who intends to make it difficult for you to do your job, little lamb. No. I think I made my word clear last time. I won’t kill you. I’ll just mangle you until you beg me to finish the job. You can’t do anything about those souls, face it, my dear. It’s not in your control. It’s all arbitrary whether this encounter kills you, despite my intentions to torture you, or not is out of my control, really. It depends on whether you get lucky. It makes no odds to me whether you die now or later. ❞

@cantfixyou - continued from here.
HOWEVER COMPOSED HE WANTED TO REMAIN, HE ALSO KNEW FAR BETTER THAN TO UNDERESTIMATE THE POTENTIAL REPERCUSSIONS OF POSSESSION. Indeed, he himself had endured it once before, and though it hadn't presented much in the way of immediate problems or significant harm, the psychological effects had lingered for a little longer than he would've liked. It'd been a dawning realisation, the fact that however equipped he was on a physical level, he was still human, and thus vulnerable in many other ways. Thus, in an effort to offer a slight balancing of the odds, he'd managed to achieve the remarkable feat of rigorously training his mind and conscience, the desire to render himself immune to such forms of attack and manipulation driving him almost obsessively - and, against all odds, he'd succeeded.
WHILE HE HAD NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT IN THAT REGARD, THE SAME COULD NOT BE SAID FOR HIS COMPANION. That wasn't to say that she wasn't a strong, formidable character - more than once, he'd found her unwavering resolve remarkable; admirable, even - there was only so much assistance he would've ever been able to offer her in such a short space of time, the secret to his own protection having not been included. Perhaps, once they were both far away from this mess, he'd change that - but for now, all he could do was remain close, his hand reaching for hers as an immediate response to her command, his other arm wrapping itself around her shoulders, fingers coiling around her arm and forming a strong, supportive grip.
❝ Not if you wreck its shit first, Charlotte. ❞
IN ANY OTHER CIRCUMSTANCE, HE'D HAVE BEEN AS UPFRONT AS POSSIBLE. However, as he witnessed her already-struggling form, he couldn't have hoped to hide the mild terror that was deeply etched onto his features no-matter how hard he might've tried. For now, at least, she didn't need the truth - she needed strength. As much as she could muster.
❝ It's going to be difficult - but I need you to fight it. As hard as you can. You'll know how. ❞
HIS VOICE REMAINED FULL, EVEN IF, INTERNALLY, HE WAS STRUGGLING. Possession was a far less predictable experience than he ever wanted to admit, and the fact that, at this stage, he was practically powerless to intervene did nothing to ease the churning mixture of grief and anger that bubbled away within him.
❝ All you have to do is force it out. I can do the rest. I'll put that bastard down for good, I promise. Just keep your eyes on me, alright? I'm not going anywhere... ❞

@cantfixyou - taught ♨️ - my muse offers your muse a warm beverage ( from the wintertime / seasonal prompts ! )
'A tea! Make it a tea! A touch of milk, no sugar.' He insists. Sugar makes the beverage taste more like it should be for an adolescent and having it black often burns his beak. With the cold biting at his fingertips, the offer of a warm drink is very welcome.
