Hello! My name is Briar Rose, and I run a little antique store in draag! I also do have a past with them, and I may give you answers. Please do be respectful whilst in my store despite my... physical form.
Mod note: mod is a minor, so no NSFW, just dont be rude
[After a couple days of nothing of any range of activity, Briar decided to go out to a park, with flowers in full bloom and a nice view. Their newly acquired cane made it a lot easier for briar to traverse to more places. They had also planned to meet a friend there, Gentleman. Of course, Briar was the last one there. So they carefully sat down on the bench next to them, which happened to be in front of a bed of roses. Ironic.]
Oh- sorry I’m a bit late… but it’s a nice day out isn’t it?
[ @fix-yourheart ]
[The breeze softly rustled the flowers- It was one of those rare days in which the sun was out, and he was grateful for the such. he was simply staring off into space, dreaming about. . whatever. It's not relevant. for such a picture - perfect day, he could hold off thinking about anything for once.]
[They moved their cane onto the side of the bench before allowing themselves to take in the atmosphere. It was nice, hopefully it could just be like this forever.]
How have you been? I mean- as good as you can be around here..
[he needed a change of scenery by now. He’d simply been carrying on as normal- but “normal” isn’t always the best, at least not in his world. Luckily, however, there wasn’t anything noticeably bad. He wouldn’t mind if it stayed like this forever.]
Yeah, um that’s good. I’ve just been having these- dreams- not dreams- they’re too vivid for that- oh. memories. I’ve been getting memories that sometimes aren’t pleasant… it’s fine… gives me something to do especially since I’ve got no company at the shop.
Yeah- that happens. It’s normal- at least I believe it to be. . At least- at least it is once you don’t have much to do- and. . Something was bad. It- that happens to me.
[He sighed, and didn’t meet their gaze for a bit. Was he suddenly like death- at least in a way? Explaining that sometimes things just happen and it’s all up to trauma, and regardless, he’ll be there for them? Was that even true? No time to question it now.]
Yeah- it’ll probably be a chance of me doing something… because my shop usually doesn’t. Well- I’m starting to just think more about myself… I don’t really know myself, I mean who I am.
[Their gaze happened to avert from their friend as well. Of course, he probably wasn’t the one to dictate their emotions, but maybe he could guide them?]
I just- don’t know who I want to be anymore… all these thoughts have been corroding me, and yet- I don’t really know..
[Their mind was never good, especially not now. That meant that sometimes Briar would give into some thoughts. Never fully believing them of course, but it still felt like a part of them was forever missing. Another Jane Doe to the world.]

[As Briar sat down on one of the various shelves in their store; Briar Rose’s Antique Emporium, their mind began to think of another time.]
[Briar, better known as “that doll” at the moment, was again, for the millionth time this week- or month- they didn’t know the time anymore- on the ground, watching children squirm and play around their body. Maybe if they kept like this they would-]
“Hey! [unknown]! Look at this thing! It’s so…”
“Creepy?”
“Yeah, actually! More weird though… what’s it doing just… lying there?”
[Just then, interrupting Briar’s own worries against these children, some worker, who Briar was somewhat familiar with, began to speak, whilst they held up Briar, who was limp with a shy smile.]
“Oh this? This is Briar Rose; a wonderful storyteller, and even more, a resilient mind! It will take so much play, you won’t even tell they- no- it, are hurt! Why don’t you have some fun with it?”
“Okay! Come on, dolly! We’re gonna have SO much fun!”
[At this point, Briar decided to go to sleep in their mind, as much as they don’t want to be awake for such an event as roughhousing. Sometimes, they would hear their voice, a reminder of their voice box gimmick.
(SNIP!)
…
When they awoke, their body felt objectively worse than usual, which wasn’t a shock along with whatever was on their outfit. The real shock however, was that their bangs were… short? Their buttons and stitched face were fully visible, which was the issue, since the bangs were meant to hide that. Somehow, a CHILD, had gotten access to scissors, and seemingly did a horrific haircut on Briar. How would he respond to their looks? That’s the whole reason they woke up like this, to impress the Grand Immortal Dictator, without looking like a complete “freak show” according to most workers in the confined lab they were in.]
“No- No, no, this can’t be happening! I need to be perfect! I can’t be this stupid trashy object! Please… please fix me.”
[Of course, someone was listening, there always was. Briar would get their wish, not in the way they would truly want however.]
VERY long story friend…! But um to keep it simple I’m like a human doll… yeah they used to like me for useful purposes, then they didn’t ! I think it’s because of my looks and that whole experiment thing…
I didn't like them at first but they're growing on me! Also in my experience the Clerk and the Director can be a bit mean yes, but the Clerk as a fun side to him as well!! I miss him oddly, he was so silly and would dance and dance when I was around....
