Lily: Just wanted to let everyone know that I managed to make a DJ x Freddy blog so that people can leave asks and have conversations with us!
Hi there! This blog is to better help our work see the light of day and better interact with people within the community! There might also b
I'll be the one handling that blog, and the content me and my friend makes will still be posted here first. I'll try to be as active as I can with that blog, so if you have any questions or comments. Let us know there!
D&F: Here is the last of the three fics! Hope you enjoy it!
Lily: And happy April Fools!
Map bot never minds helping DJ and Freddy with their romance. Heck, sheâs a sucker for the whole thing. Even when itâs a secret affair. Fazbear Entertainmentâs policy forbids romance because of how nasty the altercations can be when something goes wrong. Sheâs seen some of them: the notorious Romeo and Juliet employees whose âquietâ relationship blew up into a fierce argument that divided the human staff for a few weeks. The food employees whose subtle romance at the food court turned sour one day and begin sabotaging each otherâs stations. Oh, and there was also the music departmentâs fiasco that was a âwarâ between employees! All of it dating back to two humans who were in a relationship âon the down lowâ, and one of them decided to steal the otherâs work for a raise.
Map finds them interesting, more so than the ones that the humans watch in the break room. She loves watching the affection, the caring nature that blossoms between lovers, and the cute little things they do for one another. The bot even got to play a part of them. Mostly delivering, coveringâŠand cleaning.
SoâŠso much cleaning.
Although Map bot isnât one for disasters, seeing the disasters of these romances were fascination. The ripple effects they had on the work force, the destruction it creates, all to suddenly fade away as if they never happen. Love is a complicated thing that can either become a beautiful scenery, or a violent spiral. So, for DJ to reveal that he and Freddy confessed to each other. WellâŠshe has done EVERYTHING to keep such a sweet relationship safe and whole.
One of them is helping these two with their long distance problem.
Map had researched everything on long distance relationships. The chances of them being successful areâŠnot particularly high. In fact they have a veryâŠVERY low percentage. From higher chances of cheating to occur to simply falling out of love. While neither Freddy or DJ will ever cheat on each other, or stop being in love, it was something the bot didnât want to leave to chance.
âDone!â
The S.T.A.F.F. Bot stares up at the grinning music man. The disc jockey had been working on a new song, humming out certain parts to see which instrumental tune would fit best. Even playing it over to the staff animatronic for opinions. Map bot had been leaning against the stage, pondering for a while. âFreddy is going to love this one!â Map botâs eyes widen. Of course! âWAIT.â She gazes up at the robotic spider, âWHY NOT ADD SOMETHING ELSE TO IT?â DJ tilts his head, âAdd something else?â
âA GIFT CARRIER!â suggests the bot. The animatronic spider blinks, âGift carrier?â
âA GIFT CARRIER DELIVERS THE GIFTS THAT YOU WISH TO GIVE TO THE PERSON OF INTEREST FOR YOU!â
Map remembers seeing those carriers coming in the megaplex, bringing gifts and handing them to the one of the employees with a song and a smile. âNeat, but uhâŠâ The music man hesitantly scratches his cheek, âI can just send the song I made through text.â
âBUT THAT IS WHAT YOU ALWAYS DO!â Map bot raised her voice. Her hands animate as she continues, âYOU SHOULD MAKE THIS MORE INTERESTING THAT WILL DAZZLE FREDDY!â Seeing the surprise on the giant animatronicâs face made the S.T.A.F.F. Bot calm down. âA-AT LEAST FOR TODAY!â She added. DJ rubs his chin as he thinks on it. âYeahâŠI guess I should!â He smiles, âHereâs the music!â
The worker animatronic receives a message with the music attached. Yes! Now to get this in motion! âI WILL ALSO MAKE SURE HE RECEIVES IT IN THE MOST ROMANTIC WAY WITHOUT DRAWING ATTENTION.â Map bot promised. The disc jockey chuckles as he watches her rolls away with a thumbs up. He then pause as he realize something.
âJust remember not to draw attention to yourself!â
==============================================
Map bot understands to keep things on âthe down lowâ. As a S.T.A.F.F. Bot, staying out of everyoneâs attention is simple. No one pays that much attention to the staff animatronics, they are basically invisible. Anything they do go unnoticed, unless one does something serious enough to warrant that attention. Like glitching out, getting destroyed, ruining anything, things that donât happened too oftenâŠWell the âdestroyedâ part does, but thatâs totally different topic. Point blank, a S.T.A.F.F. Bot can easily get away with doing anything without drawing any gazes to them.
Which is why she rolls along to Fazerblaster with six heart shaped balloons in each hand.
Freddy happened to turn around just in time to notice her. âOh! Hello, Map bot!â The orange glamrock greets, âAre you delivering all of this to someone?â The bot may not have a mouth to visibly show it, but her happiness just radiates from her. âYES.â She beamed. âTO A VERY SPECIAL BEAR, FROM A LOVING ADMIRER!â The animatronic worker even did the twirl she remembered seeing a carrier do one time. To add a bit more to the flare, she decides to play the gift for the lead singer.
He gasps, âThis music!â His ears wiggle as excitement sparkle in his stare. Now to finish it off by giving the robotic bear his gift via text message. âFOR YOU!â Map said. The look on Freddyâs face as his cheeks flush, she couldnât help but feel pride. âThis is so sweet!â The botâs chest puffs up the more she listens, âAlthoughâŠâ Her eyes opens, catching the hint of confusion on his expression.
âHe could have just sent the song to me through text.â
The S.T.A.F.F. Botâs eye twitches. âHE WANTED TO DO SOMETHING INTERESTING.â She answered with annoyance. The glamrock bear quickly raises his hands, âI know, and I appreciate it!â He then begin fiddling with his fingers. âI am a bit moreâŠsimple, is all.â admits the bear animatronic. All Map bot could do is stare at him. All that hard workâŠgathering spare balloons, finding the machine to blow them up, even the strings used to tie the balloons took a while to obtained. Yet, the lead singer still prefers simplicity. Her shoulders slump.
Freddy blinks, âMap?â The bot doesnât reply. Instead, she shoves the balloons into his hands. âENJOY.â She said. Dejected, the staff animatronic heads out. âWait.â Map bot stops. She glances back at the concerned glamrock. âIs something wrong?â He asked. The S.T.A.F.F. Bot wonders if she should tell him the reason. What if it ends up causing the animatronic bear to feel insecure about the relationship? Then again, she didnât want him to continue worrying about herâŠâI WAS THE ONE WHO SUGGESTED IT.â Map bot reveals, âAS A WAY TO HELP.â
âHelp?â Freddy tilts his head. Sighing, the animatronic worker turns to him. âONLY THIRTY-ONE PERCENT OF LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS ARE SUCCESSFUL. MEANING THAT THERE IS A SIXTY-NINE PERCENT CHANCE OF FALIURE.â She explained. The bot drops her head in shame, the one time she decides to fully insert herself in a relationship willingly and she messes up. A hand gently pats her shoulder. Surprise, she gazes up at him.
âMap bot, thank you for your concern.â The robotic bear warmly smiles at the staff animatronic, âHowever, I can assure you that our relationship will not fall apart so easily.â A sad expression appears on Map botâs face, âI AM SORRYâŠâ The glamrock leader chuckles, âDo not be sorry! It was actually a very interesting gesture to suggest!â Seeing the happiness radiate from Freddy gave the robotic worker assurance that things are still well.
GoodâŠ
âIn factâŠâ the orange glamrock smiles, âIf you do not mind, I wish to use your service for today as well.â
=============================================
âNo way!â
DJ couldn't help but be happily surprise at the sight. Map bot had returned to the DJ Arena, wearing the space gear from Freddy's attraction as requested from the glamrock leader himself. She even has the fazer-blaster in hand! âFROM THE INTERSTELLAR DELIVERY SERVICE, YOU HAVE A MESSAGE FROM THE SPACE RANGER HIMSELF!â says the staff animatronic as she poses. She then plays it out loud:
âThank you for sending me such a lovely gift, my dear Titan! I hope that you enjoy mine!â
The music man burst into laughter as his hands covers his deep red face. Itâs the first time the bot has ever seen him like this! A warm feeling within her swells. Once the laughter dies down, the disc jockey lowers his hands for her to see his bashful gaze. âMaybe doing this wasnât so bad, after all!â He chuckled.
In the end, the two animatronics came to an agreement to let Map bot do her gift carrier idea. Albeit, only under special occasions and for them to be minimal. She gladly did so whenever the opportunity arrives. Though, with how extravagant the Pizzaplex tends to be on the holidays, she finds herself going a bit overboard during those times. Still, the S.T.A.F.F. Bot is thankful to be able to help the two romantics in any way she can.
D&F: Here is the second out of the three fics! Hope you all enjoy it!
DJ calmly hums as he chills on his stage. He had finished a party earlier, letting him enjoy a nice break. Freddy should be going on stage right now, the disc jockey even sent an encouraging message to the glamrock bear. Itâs always a shame though, that the music man couldnât be there to watch the glamrocks perform. The thought of being able to show support while listening to his dear bearâs voice made his lip twitch.
A silent sigh escapes the animatronic giant, his size truly makes simple things a hassle sometimes. Even if the robotic spider could leave Fazcade, he is sure that an oversize animatronic like himself will attract a lot of attention away from the glamrocks regardless.
StillâŠ
DJ opens his eyes. He would have love to experience the sight. Chica and Monty ripping their guitars, Roxy weaving the notes from her keytar, and FreddyâŠwhose movements and voice that shapes a stage into a magical scene that dazzles all that witness it. A small, sad smile emerge from the spider animatronic as his gaze wanders to the wall in front of him.
If only there was a flat screen for the music man to see the showâŠ
âDJ!â The disc jockey turns around and spots the familiar S.T.A.F.F. Bot. He grins, âHey, Map bot! Youâre on break too?â The animatronic spider pauses when he realizes the bot wheeling in something onto the dance floor. Isnât that the television set from the storage room? His eyes squint as he tilts his head. Odd, she usually doesnât suggest movie time during work hours. âUhâŠâ DJ begins to ask, but is stopped by the raise of her finger. Confused, the music man continue to watch the animatronic worker in silence.
Pulling out a cord from her head, Map bot plugs it to the back of the tv. She then presses a button. As the screen turns on, they are greeted to the visual of the atrium. A full house of people cheering and roaring as four figures appear on the big stage. âHello everybodyyy~!â exclaims a voice from the screen. The giant animatronicâs eyes widen.
âFrâŠFreddy?â
The image zooms in close enough to show the glamrock leaderâs signature smile as he waves to the audience. âThank you all so much for being here!â He greeted. DJ couldnât believe it, he leans in.
âIs that-?!â
ThisâŠthis is the glamrocks performance! LIVE! One the television screen! HOW?! âHE REQUESTED TO HAVE IT BRODCAST TO YOU.â said Map bot. WaitâŠso Freddy got the S.T.A.F.F. Bots to work together for the disc jockey to see? âBefore we begin,â The orange glamrockâs face softens. They way the robotic bear stares ahead, it feels as if he is looking right at the music man.
âI just want to dedicate this song to a very special person!â
The excitement dies down as he begins. The first notes glide from his lips and onto the crowd. It's soft tone guiding the those that listen to a untold journey. From the skies, through the stars, and into the vast unknown. As the intonation grows stronger, the sounds of instruments starts to play. Chica, Monty, and Roxy all play in rhythm of the wonderful ballad.
DJ covers his mouth his hand. He knows that song! HE sung it personally to Freddy weeks ago! Now here is the glamrock leader; his band playing it in front of an audience with lyrics to match! The animatronic giant couldn't help but deeply blush. ââŠFreddy, you sly bear.â He uttered with a grin.
As the music ends, the crowd loudly applause. âHappy Birthday, Ryan!â exclaims the glamrock bear. The robotic spider watches him wave happily in the direction of the cheering audience, knowing who the gesture is really for.
âNow letâs ROCK!!â
DJ witness the band bring the atrium to life with their song and dance, grinning from audio to audio.
D&F: Here is the first out of the three fics made! Hope you all enjoy it!
Lily: Sorry for taking so long to post! We've been busy as of late, but we're still making stuff! Don't worry!
The glamrocks are preparing to go out to do their performance, and as always the lead singer is the earliest one to be ready. Freddy letâs out a sigh. This week had been more hectic than usual. So many birthdays and parties had been booked almost back to back that break times were barely possible. Irritation is at an all time high, and itâs starting to show. Arguments are happening more often, a few fights occurred in the utility tunnels, and everyone just feel incredibly exhausted. Even the other animatronics are feeling it.
âChica donât eat that! You're going on stage!â
The robotic bearâs finger started twitching.
He can already feel the invisible pressure growing in his head, making him subconsciously rub the side of his head. The overworking of the CPU as it tries to manage tasks that seems to fail, due to so many things going wrong somehow. The rise of panic that builds the longer things continue getting worse. To animatronics, it's a warning sign of a potential overload, but to humans it's known as stress.
Stress that can easily cause glitching to trigger in Freddy if he isn't careful. Checking his interface, he notice an unread message:
[ Break a leg out there, my Melody Bear â„ ]
The orange glamrock couldnât help but smile as he reads it. He and DJ donât always get to do their date nights regularly. Not just because of how long it took for their dates to get set up, but also due to their busy schedules.
The glamrocks are the ones that the guests come for, their performance brings the megaplex income outside of the attractions and shops. As a result, whenever the pizzaplex receives a busy week, the robotic bear usually ends up far too preoccupied to spend time with the giant animatronic.
Which is where the messages come in.
They were DJ's idea, sending these words of encouragement before the performance. Every time the lead singer would read these messages, and he would always send a short response back thanking the robotic spider.
The bear animatronic's smile fades as he hears the commotion increase. Monty's aggression have spiked thanks to growing tension. Not enough to do actual harm, but the bassist had already broken a list of things over the course of the week. Roxy's obsession with her looks have also gotten worse. As much as wolf animatronic refuse to admit, the stress was getting to her that even a strand of hair being out of place will set her off.
Sadly, the two glamrocks are clashing with one another. Probably due to the keytarist's constant use of hair spray before she steps onto the stage piece. Some of the employees are trying to de-esculate the situation to the best of their abilities. As for Chica, she is trying take back the small food from the human worker. While the guitarist finds any opportunity to eat, getting worked up like this makes it worse. She would need to stay calm, and eating fulfills that need. Unfortunately, it can also cause her to experience performance problems with the devoured food clogging up her insides.
Freddy's eye twitches. Too much yellingâŠnot enough time to take a step backâŠso much stress. He can feel his body going stiff. The robotic bear's notification alerts him of a new message and checks it.
[ Try this before you head on stage đđ. ]
Along with it is an attachment. Curious, the glamrock leader opens it. What enters his audios is the gentle notes of music. It takes the bear animatronic by surprise, then a warm smile forms. He allows the soothing string of song to flow, brushing away the rising stress. The chaos around him had been silencedâŠtime feels like it is slowing to a halt. The robotic bear closes his his eyes as his form relaxes. It's as if DJ is right here, singing this beautiful melody to him.
Freddy can envision that wonderful grin on the disc jockey's face, the loving gaze trained on him while spinning the tender pieces of harmony. Every note constructed from the animatronic spider's voice, is like his own touch caressing the lead singer's cheek. Everything is so serene, and not a single care in the world could break it.
As the song quietly ends, Freddy calmly opens his eyes. His band mates are stationed on the lift, annoyed but less frustrated. As it raises, the animatronic bear states.
âWe can have a sleepover tonight.â
The group turn to him in shock. Mostly because he isn't one to suggest things that would clearly break night protocol. However after today, security will be lax and the staff isn't going to be hung up on anything minor for a while. PlusâŠhis friends need something to enjoy themselves, so doing the one thing they all had expressed great interest in seems like a good idea. âIn my room.â adds the robotic bear. All the irritation evaporated from the other glamrocks as excitement took over.
Freddy quickly sends a reply to DJ before the group arrive on stage.
Lily: Finally finished it! Oh my goodness, it took too long to finish this! I lost progress on it TWICE, but thankfully third times the charm! Oh, and D&F's family member sent me this background to use!
D&F: Here is the last fic out of the three! Hope you all enjoy it!
DJ was amazed upon entering the basement. The decorations, the wallpaper scenery, it all felt like he had walked outside into the docks. Though, he couldnât help but wonder why Freddy looked a bitâŠhesitant. âI really love what youâve done with the place!â The music man grins, âI can even see a carnival from here!â The animatronic bear chuckles, âI am glad you love it, the S.T.A.F.F. Bots worked hard to arrange this setting for us.â
The disc jockey stares down at the casing in the glamrockâs hands. âIs that the movie?â He asked. The sense of nervousness made its return within the lead singer upon hearing the question. âAh, wellâŠyes.â He averts his gaze, âItâŠit is a horror movie.â A horror movie? Thatâs new, wonder where the robotic bear got his hands on it. âI know it is strange, I meant to grab a romantic one to match everything here but I wasâŠdistracted.â There is a hint of disappointment as Freddy explained. Almost as if he had already ruined their date.
DJ lowers himself down and offers an assuring smile. âHey, thatâs cool! Iâm excited to check it out!â He said. The smaller animatronic looks up at him, âYou do not mind?â The robotic spider lets out a small chuckle, âNah, it never hurts to spice things up.â Couples tend to watch horror films on their dates. At least, thatâs what he picked up on from overhearing the casual conversations of the employees. Besides, heâs curious as to what the movie has in store. Freddy couldnât help but return the gesture.
âAlright. However, at any point if you ever feel afraid to continue watching, let me know.â
The animatronic spider tenderly wraps an arm around the glamrock leader. âThatâs very sweet of you, but if you feel scared, know that we can end it and Iâll be right here to comfort you. â He replied. The orange glamrock laughs as he nuzzles against the music manâs cheek, âThank you, my brave Titan.â The robotic spider returns the gesture.Â
âAnything for my Melody Bear.â
================================
OhâŠwow.Â
The movie started out slow at first, like all horror movies usually do. Getting to know the characters, setting up the scenario, and the whole foreshadowing thing that will make the terrifying scenes more interesting. Freddy found himself favoring the older scientist, who seems to have an interest in space-related research. DJ gravitated towards the space station pilot with a love of music. The cast was likable enough, besides one that was obviously the jerk of the group.
What the two didnât account for was how GRUESOME the scenes would be. Small monstrosities crawling all over the human victims, the way the victims are devoured offscreen, even that scene with the pit was a lot. It didnât even help that the monsters of the film are spider-like in design, which cause a chill down the music manâs endo. The robotic bear sits very close to the animatronic giant, leaning against his cheeks while glued to the screen.
âI did not know spiders could do thatâŠâ mumbles the glamrock. The disc jockeyâs hug tightens a bit. âMe neitherâŠâ DJ agreed. They both jump as another jump scare occurs. âAhâŠfake out.â He chuckled to lessen the tension. The glamrock bear places his hand on the robotic spiderâs other hand, âThe-they have done a fantastic job on the outer space sections of the movie.â The music man can feel the smaller animatronicâs grip massaging his finger.
âYeah, Iâm learning a lo-â He begins but is immediately interrupted by another horror scene, âNO, NOT CARRIE!â The sudden attack of one of the crew mates caught the animatronics off guard. The previous victims were at least hinted to be next, but to see this one yanked away by one of the creatures was a shock. âNooooâŠ.â Freddy whines, âPlease, let her live.â The disc jockey took notice of how much the orange glamrock snuggles against him. Itâs comforting in a way.
âŠNow that DJ thinks about this. This must be what the employees were talking about. Wrapping around the date when they get scared, being a sign of comfort, all of it to get closer in a romantic sense. He glances at the distracted lead singer. What else did the human workers say? Just act all tough and brave, and one can easily get to some kind of base? Whatever that âbaseâ is. He opens his mouth to speak when another jump scare startles the both of them.
Maybe heâll try again when the movie takes a break from the terrifying stuff.
============================
In the end, the spider animatronic didnât get his chance to act tough or brave. He was so absorbed in the scientistâs explanation in destroying the monsters that, by the time he stopped conversing with Freddy on the effectiveness of it, the movie had returned to the action. Since then, each attempt led to constant failure as DJ held onto the glamrock for dear life.
âThat was incredible!â exclaimed the bear animatronic. While the smaller animatronic was afraid at first, he grew more and more excited after the plan devised by the remaining crew started to work.
âYeahâŠâ
âAnd the way they vanquished the monsters without destroying the space station was amazing!â
âYepâŠit was.â The robotic spider sounds a bit disappointed the more he replies. The lead singer takes notice, âIs everything alright?â DJ snaps out of his thoughts and forces a smile. âI am.â He answers as the smaller animatronic frowns, âReally.â The orange glamrock didnât buy it. Sighing, the music man scratches his cheek.
âI remember hearing some of the employees talking about acting tough to impress your date, andâŠI decided to try and do that during our movie watching.â
He lightly laughs, âI just realize how silly it was now that I said it out loud.â More than silly, the attempt was pretty dumb. He should have just enjoyed the movie like he originally did. The giant animatronic pauses when he felt a gentle touch against his face. âYou did not need to impress me by acting tough.â Freddy stated. His face softens. âEverything that you have done for our relationship is impressive.â a genuine smile forms as the animatronic bear continues, âFrom the gifts you had given me, to all of our dates!â
The glamrock plants a kiss on the disc jockeyâs nose, âYou have given me so much when I asked for so little.â DJ blinks as he takes in everything that the smaller animatronic said. Blushing, he tenderly pecks the glamrock leaderâs forehead.
âThatâs because you deserve the world.â
Freddy giggles as his cheeks flush. âI am not sure about that.â his ears wiggle lovingly, âWhat I am sure about, is how lucky I am to have you.â The music man caresses the smaller animatronicâs face.
âI feel the same.â
The robotic bear raises his eyebrow. âIs that a line from the movie?â He asked. The animatronic giant smirks, âMaaaybe~.â The two chuckle as they snuggle together.
D&F: Second fic out of three! Hope you all enjoy it!
Lily: Sorry for being late in uploading it!
Freddy wanted to do something special for DJ. The giant animatronic had always worked hard in setting up and arranging their dates, with the help of the S.T.A.F.F. Bots. Though, such hard work tended to leave the robotic spider more tired than usual. It was something that the glamrock began noticing in their recent dates. Unlike the other animatronics, the music manâs size makes it impossible to use any of the charging stations littered around the pizzaplex. Which is why sleep mode is so important for him, itâs the only way for his battery core to properly recharge.
So, the lead singer offered to handle their next date. DJ can relax, while Freddy takes care of the arrangements. When the animatronic spider agreed to it, the glamrock bear made sure to find Map Bot the very next day. He informed the worker animatronic that heâll be handling the upcoming movie night instead of the disc jockey and require some help getting it together. To say she happily accepted to help was an understatement. It became clear to the robotic bear that setting up a scenery is pretty difficult. Not only did it need to look good, but it has to be done with the limited resources that the bots can get away withâŠâborrowingâ for the time being.
In a way, it made the glamrock appreciate the hard work that the giant animatronic put in their previous dates even more. Luckily, Map already had a setting in mind. The basement will be decorated with the wallpaper that had been ordered by one of the employees as a mistake in the latest shipment. Along with using the lights and a few heart decorations to accompany the plastered scene of a quiet night at the docks with the glowing display of a carnival in the distance. Apparently, she had always wanted to suggest a more romantic scenery to DJ plenty of times. It just never happened, due to it needing a particular romantic movie to complete it.
And it just so happens that the movie is available right now.
How the robotic worker found out, the lead singer can only assume she was eavesdropping on the conversations of the human staff. Nevertheless, Freddy offered to retrieve it while the S.T.A.F.F. Bots went to work. After all, he didnât like the idea of just standing by and doing nothing. Movies played within the megaplex are all kid friendly, since their target audience are children. That didnât stop the employees from sneaking certain movies inside to watch in their free time.Â
Not that the glamrock leader had any problem with it. As long as those films stay out of the reach of children, then heâs perfectly fine with it. He enters Customer Service, the most hated workstation in the buildingâŠat least thatâs what he heard. Neither bot nor human enjoy working here, it was seen as more of a punishment than a work area. Why, the bear animatronic can only assume it was due to always the number of customers lining up to complain and the calls the station receives. He has dealt with angry parents and troublesome guests, but the thought of having to deal with that throughout the whole dayâŠOn second that, the animatronic bear can kind of see why this area is heavily disliked. Â
He starts searching the cubbies, Map Bot said that the movies were hidden in one that looks dirty and unused. Only problem is that there are a good number of them that fit that description.
Guess the orange glamrock will have to use process of elimination to find the right cubby.
================================================
Twenty cubbies later, and Freddy is no closer to finding the right one. He tried the locker combination that Map Bot gave him on every one of the cubbies that match the requirements, yet each one proved to be the wrong locker. It also made the lead singer realize how messy some of the workers are, or just donât use their assigned cubbies at all. He jiggles the lock after inputting the code.
Wrong again.
âFreddy!â
The sudden call of his name causes the bear animatronic to slam against the lockers as he whips around. Chica stands in front of him, with an eager smile on her beak.
Oh no.
âThere you are! I was wondering where you went!â She said happily. NoâŠno Chica canât find out what heâs doing! Romantic relationships are forbidden in the pizzaplex, due to the complications that can occur from them. Itâs in the policy itself! âCh-Ch-Ch-Chica,â The glamrock leader forces himself to smile back, âyou wereâŠlooking for me?â Calm down, just relax or she WILL notice something is wrong.
âWell, not at first! I was heading back to my green room after being cleaned up, but I noticed that the curtains in your room was closed.â
The robotic bear mentally kicks himself. He went through the trouble of fabricating an excuse to Monty and Roxy after practice that he forgot to message it to the animatronic hen! She had to be absent to have the food clogging up her insides removed.
âSo, I messaged you to see if you were okay and I didnât get a reply! Which was strange, cause you always make sure to reply!â
He quickly checks his messages through his interface. As the guitarist stated, there are five unread texts from her. The bear animatronic winces, he was so focused on finding the cubby that he ignored them. âThatâs when I got curious!â Chica continues, âAnd I looked around until I found you!â This is bad, very bad, and the orange glamrock has no one to blame but himself. She inches closer to him, then tilts her head.
âSo, whatcha doing?â
âI-!â Freddyâs eyes frantically dart around, âI, uhâŠâ An excuse, think of any excuse to satisfy the white glamrockâs curiosity! Sadly, heâs desperation is picked up by the robotic hen.
âLooking for something? We can go get Roxy to help-â
âNo!â blurts out the robotic bear. Her surprised expression made him aware of his outburst. âI mean, thank you for the offer but I can find it for myself.â He said as calmly as he could muster. Unfortunately, that only fed into Chicaâs ever growing suspicion. She narrowed her eyes, âAre you checking the lockers?â Freddy fiercely shakes his head.
âNo! That is a violation against the privacy policy, section-â
âYes, you are!â interrupts the robotic hen. âI am not!â The glamrock bear objected. She points at his ears, âYou are! Your ears wiggle when you lie!â His hands cover his ears on instinct. He wanted to say otherwise, but the look on the white glamrockâs face says she wonât believe it. The glamrock leader doesnât want to reveal his relationship with DJâŠThinking it over, he sighs. âI amâŠlooking for a movie to watch.â He admitted. Hopefully spilling a little bit of the truth doesnât encourage his friend to dig deeper.
Chicaâs eyes light up as she gasps. She looks around for any prying eyes, before continuing. âYou mean the movie stash!â She whispered. Freddy nods. The guitarist beams, âOh, then I can toootally help you with that!â She casually walks over to a dark corner. There, the hen animatronic stops in front of a cubby. Messy and unused, just like in the description. Even the lock on it shows signs of rust. âHow did you know where they were?â asks the orange glamrock. Chica begins working on the lock, âSome of the employees would ask me to sneak in here and bring one of the movies to them sometimes in exchange for food!â
That explains it. Although, the last part had the glamrock leader wondering if her recent visit to Parts and Service was the result of that. âHere we go!â She said as she removed the rusty lock. Opening the cubby reveals a whole stack of movies: Action movies, comedy movies, so many movies of different genres. âThank you, Chica.â Freddy smiles, âThough, can youâŠkeep this a secret between the two of us?â
âSure!â
The robotic bear spots the specific movie and pulls it out. The white glamrock audible gasps, âYOUâRE GOING TO WATCH MUSIC ON THE DOCKS?â Freddy pauses. âUmâŠâ He stares down at the casing, âYes?â
âOh my cupcakes, that is SUCH a good romance movie!â
Like a flip of a switch, the robotic hen went straight into gushing. âThe music is fantastic, and the love between She-â She abruptly stops, âAlmost spoiled the movie for you!â The lead singer prepares himself. There are a lot of things that Chica enjoys, and romance is one of them. He had caught her trying to stealthily watch the romantic dramas that were on tv within the break rooms. She would even talk excessively about certain romance shows with Roxy. âJust know, that it will leave you going âaawwwwâ the whole time!â giggles the guitarist.
Her body twirls as her mind drifts away. âLike, the scene where they sing on the docks-youâre going to love that one-â
WaitâŠthe docks?
âIt is so dreamy! The way the two danced and sang about how the power of music brought them together!â
AâŠmusical?
âA popular musician and a local DJ!â Freddyâs eyes grew wide. The glamrock hen sighs, âOne pressured to be the perfect singer of the band that is loved by everyone!â His grip on the case tightens. âWhile the other is lovable, sweet, and wants to spread the beauty of music to the world!â She finished, oblivious to the horrified face of her friend behind her. ThisâŠthis sounds too much likeâŠhim and DJ. Oh stars-THATâS why Map Bot insisted on the movieâs importance! The bear animatronicâs hands start to shake.
âTwo different worlds, brought together by the very thing that defines them!â
His face is burning red as a slew of emotions hit him fast and hard. Too many implications, this movie might end up exposing the glamrock without him needing to say it! Even if Chica doesnât pick up on it, thereâs still the filmâs plot! ItâŠitâs just too personal! This movie night is supposed to be enjoyable AND relaxing! From the sound of it, it wonât BE relaxing at all! Freddy can easily imagine the embarrassment that will come from watching those scenes, having to deal with feeling confronted by the film itself! He gazes down at the casingâs rating:
Rated M.
NOPE.
âA-actually,â The robotic bear swiftly put the movie back, âI picked the wrong one!â He didnât bother to look as he pulled another one out, âThis is what I was looking for!â The guitarist stops and stares at him. âAhâŠare you sure?â She asked. âYep! I have to go!â He dashes out before the animatronic hen could comment any further. She blinks, before giving off a shrug. âI didnât know Freddy was into horror movies.â Chica mumbled as she closed the miniature locker.
D&F: Here is the first of the three fics made! Hope you all enjoy it!
Lily: Hey, originally this was suppose to come with a picture, but I wasn't able to finish it in time. I will edit to include it when I do. (Edit: I added it!)
DJ awaits for Freddy.
They'll be finally alone tonight, surrounded by the beautiful stars that twinkle up on the ceiling. He stands there in the huge room that is illuminated with chandeliers and wall lamps. A mixture of hesitation and excitement fuels the music man as he tries to stand still. His hand reaches up and tugs at his collar. This is a first for the robotic spider. He doesn't want to mess this upâŠ
He can't mess it upâŠ
Sounds of instruments begin to play. DJ looks up. His eyes met the animatronic bear's gaze. All of the disc jockey's anxieties melt away as he watches the glamrock descend from the staircase. A red suit that glitters as though the lead singer was from the starry sky, with the jacket open to reveal the light blue vest underneath. Freddy looksâŠstunning. Everything about the outfit compliments the orange glamrock's charming smile and wonderous complexion.
Which says a lot about the spider animatronic's purple suit, laced with a yellow ruffle. His outfit didn't do much to make him stand out, just enough to make him look good enough. Still, the robotic spider felt his body being drawn to the glamrock leader. As Freddy took his last step to the clear surface of the floor, DJ extended his hand to him. An inviting grin upon the animatronic's lips, offering to do the one thing he never thought he would do:
To dance with another.
The robotic bear takes the hand, and let the disc jockey guide them to the center. A gentle pull to close the distance as the spider animatronic's arms embrace the glamrock bear. Only his hand, that continues to hold Freddy's hand, remains in place. DJ felt the lead singer calmly rest his other arm on him.
Right, the giant animatronic will take the lead.
The steps are slow, ensuring that the music man avoids stepping on the robotic bear's feet. The orange glamrock happily beams as they dance. Such a feeling is contagious, the animatronic spider couldn't help but do the same. Over time their movements increased until they were in sync with the tempo that played around them. Lost in each other as their bodies sway with grace masterful skill.
As if the two animatronics have danced beforeâŠTogetherâŠas one.
âDJâŠâ Freddy uttered for the first time since they began. The soothing nature of his voice was comforting for the disc jockey. âDJâŠâ the glamrock repeats again. This time, he pulls his hand from DJ's hold and tenderly touches the robotic spider's cheek.
âDJ, wake up.â
The animatronic giant slowly blinks his eyes. Staring back at him was glamrock leader, wearing no suit, just his normal attire. âYou fell asleep.â He informed. The spider animatronic examines his surroundings. The extravagant ballroom had disappeared. Instead, they were in the basement decorated with makeshift items to give the illusion of a starry night outdoors. The television that S.T.A.F.F. Bots helped roll in displaying the credits on its screen.
The movieâŠDJ fell asleep while watching the movie. âOhâŠâ guilt starts to form as the music man frowns, âSorry, didn't mean toâŠâ The bear animatronic shakes his head, âNo, it is alright, we are staying up a lot longer than usual.â True, Freddy the gang had to do some extra practice for an upcoming performance. He didn't want the smaller animatronic to feel bad for missing their movie night, so he stayed up longer to make sure it happened.
Honestly, the disc jockey should have known better, since his battery core needs the sleep to recharge. âStill, this was my idea to not reschedule and I left you hanging.â replies DJ. The smaller animatronic nuzzles against his cheek, âYou still kept me company regardless.â The robotic spider smiles, the orange glamrock always knew how to cheer him up. âThat's very sweet of you to say.â He said as he returned the gesture.
It is then that Freddy's face perks up. âHow about I handle tomorrow's movie night? That way you can get a bit of rest while I'm busy.â He suggested. The giant animatronic blinks in surprise. Well, he was the one to set up the arrangements of their dates. However, that was mainly because of how restrictive the music man's situation is for them. YetâŠfor the glamrock to offer like this feltâŠnice. A genuine smile forms on the animatronic spider, âOf course.â
It wouldn't hurt to let the lead singer take the lead of their little song and dance.
Lily: Finally got finished with this on time! I wanted to do something for Halloween, so I made this...Sorry for the background being amaturish. I couldn't find a background maker to handle it, so I made it through a website that only operates by mouse. Hope you all enjoy it, regardless!
D&F: Here is the fourth and last fic! This one was done differently for fun! Hope you enjoy it!
The tunnels are an interesting thing.
To travel within them is like traveling into another world hidden away within the pizzaplex. Each tunnel leads to somewhere in Fazcade, yet the curves, the turns, the ascent and descent all creates a fascinating venture.
He peeks into the entrance of one of another tunnel. Where does this lead? Up? Down? Left or right?
His ears twitch, the ground begins to rumble softly under his feet. He whips around, the rumbling is growing stronger.
âHeâs coming!â
Looking back at the entrance, he pokes his head inside. The tunnelâs pathway goes upwards. The structure is far too smooth for climbing, at least for him. He needs to go another way. The area is shaking now, he almost loses his footing from the fierce vibrations.
Thereâs no time.
His mind tries to think of a plan. As his eyes gaze down at his hand, he notices his blue-painted nails. It hits him, maybeâŠStaring at the structure again, he steels himself, and digs his claws into the metal. It surprises him how easy his nails broke through. He expected more resistance. Then againâŠthe companyâs knack for buying cheap materials shouldnât surprise anyone at this point. Regardless, he climbs up into the tunnel, leaving holes behind. The vibrations have grown vicious, almost causing him to lose balance. He clings to the metal for dear life to keep himself in place.
âŠAnd wait.
The large rumblings slow to abrupt points, until they regress to the soft motions of before. A giant figure carefully enters the section of the tunnel outside. Large black eyes scanning for any sign of life. He froze, donât draw attention. Stay still. Be quiet. Itâs clear that the searcher is listening for any movements through those headphones. His eyes widened when the head started to shift.
Donât look this way!
Please, donât look this way!
He isnât sure how well hidden he is in this tunnel. For all he knows, the glow of his eyes could be enough to allude to his presence. The head stops midway. A deafening silence loomed around them, waiting for one of the participants to react. To make a sound, a small movement, anything that triggers a scene. Normally, this wouldnât bother him. He has plenty of patience and can wait a good number of hours if he is allowed.
This, for the first time in his existence, made him anxious.
The head finally turns away, and the searcher resumes his advancement deeper into the other tunnel. The vibrations left behind betray the massive size of the pursuer. That alone raises his awareness of the situation. Though, this is DJ Music Manâs territory. The giant animatronic has gone through these tunnels every single day, they are practically made for him. So, the stealth approach works deceptively well in the robotic spiderâs favor. Once the vibrations cease, he carefully trails down and exits the tunnel.
He canât go further ahead; DJ will be there and might be in hiding. He has to tread back the other way. He speeds the opposite way, his footsteps light as his feet expertly rushes across the floor.
Find another tunnelâŠ
Find another tunnelâŠ
He stops in front of another entrance and hops in it. Itâs darker than the previous tunnels, it must lead down-
Something squeaks.
He froze. He stares down at his foot. Slowly, he raises it. A Glamrock Freddy plush doll stares back at him as its body noisily returns to its former shape. Where� He spots more plush toys of the other glamrocks scattered about the tunnel. All of them can make noises if pressed.
His mouth opens with a silent gasp. TrapsâŠthere are traps within this tunnel?! Why-when?! HOW did the spider animatronic find the time to set this up?! His ears twitch, again. The rumbling is coming at high speed. Panic takes over as he scrambles through the plushies. The softness of the upcoming vibrations only fuels the distress as he steps on another one that lets out a noise. No time to be stealthy, he dashes deeper into the tunnel.
The shakes are firm, and the faint sounds of the mechanical limbs are getting close. He halts, the path leads down. He sees another entrance in the middle of the descent.
The music man is drawing closer.
Taking a few steps back, he runs towards the edge and jumps. Gravity yanks him down the tunnel at a faster velocity. He prepares his claws, ignoring the pressure of the fall as he digs them into the wall. They tear into the metal as he skids. The speed decreases only slightly as he closes in on the entrance. The screeching noises emanating from the action only alerts the disc jockey of his presence. The vibrations quicken, the animatronic giant is catching up with him.
He canât get caught.
Not now.
He flings his legs back at the moment his body reaches the opening and throws himself right into the other tunnel, pulling his hands out as he does so. He flips his form forward and tucks into a ball as he makes contact with the floor. A short roll back to his feet, he continues to run. The rumblings arrive a bit after. Not good, the spider animatronic is gaining up on him. He makes a sharp turn into another tunnel, thankfully one that is straight. He runs faster, eyes darting for another tunnel entrance.
Come onâŠ
Come onâŠ
His eyes grew as one entered his sight. He jumps in, making sure his steps are light enough as he enters the tunnel, and presses his body against the wall. The shaking comes in, the enormous frame rushes past the tunnel he hides in. He keeps his eyes shut. Wait. Donât move. Any sound, no matter how small, will bring the robotic spider right back. The rumbling distances, growing more and more faint until itâs gone. Tension lessens in his body. He carefully checks out for the animatronic. âNo sign on him.â He thought. He tip toes out of the entrance and jogs the opposite direction. So closeâŠheâs almost out of this tunnel.
A hand grabs him.
The move is sudden, a loud gasp escapes him as the hand pulls him back. He helplessly reaches out the entrance as it stretches further and further away from him. Soon, his feet are no longer touching the ground. Lifted into the air as he comes face-to-face with the music man. A wide grin appears on the disc jockeyâs face, sporting his keyboard teeth.
âGame over, Freddy.â says the animatronic spider.
The shock on the glamrockâs face turns into a smile. He chuckles, âIt seems you have won the game of hide and seek.â Leaving a kiss on DJâs nose, the bear animatronicâs ears wiggle warmly.Â
âCongratulations, my Titan.â
The music manâs face turns completely red as a goofy grin sets in. He places the glamrock leader back down. âThough, I have to ask.â Freddy questions, âWhere did you obtain those plush toys?â The robotic spider blinks, before nervously scratching his cheek. âOh, those? I, uh, got them as presents from the S.T.A.F.F Bots.â He said. The bear animatronic beams, âOh! I did not know you collected them! If you want, I can bring some more for you next time!â DJâs body suddenly becomes stiff. His eyes glance away from the smaller animatronic.
 âIâmâŠIâm good. Thanks.â
The orange glamrock raises his eyebrow at him. âDJ, are you alright? Is something wrong?â asks the robotic bear. The animatronic spider turns to Freddy with a forced smile. âNo, no Iâm okay! I justâŠletâs talk about something else!â He insisted. It only made the lead singer more concern, âThere is nothing wrong with having a toy collection-â
âFreddy!â He shouted. He stops upon seeing the shock from the smaller animatronic and quickly backtracks, âPlease, justâŠlet it go, okay?â The lead singer was taken aback by the sudden outburst. A first for the giant animatronic, as he is usually calm about these sorts of things. Did Freddy overstep some kind of boundary? Before the glamrock bear can get a word in, the music man adds.Â
âBesides, you left scratch marks on the walls!âÂ
âI-!â Freddy begins but stops. DJ is right, what the robotic bear did was inexcusable himself. The amount of damage his claws did to those walls are going to take weeks to fix. Probably more from where they are located. His eyes fell to the floor in shame, ââŠsee your point.â Guilt quickly takes over the disc jockey. He had no right to act defensive towards the glamrock leader. After all, Freddy was just being nice. It isnât like he felt ashamed about having a collection or anything, itâs justâŠ
âHow about this?â The animatronic bear looks up at the robotic spider, âIâllâŠshow you some of my plushies, and in return I wonât mention how those scratches appeared?â The lead singer smiles. He walks up and hugs the giant animatronicâs face. âI would like that, thank you.â He answered. DJ happily pecks the smaller animatronic on the side of his face, âAnything for my Melody Bear.â As the music man carries the glamrock out of the tunnels, a frown grows on Freddyâs face.
He canât help but wonder if DJ is hiding somethingâŠ
Lily: Okay, here is the last part of the third fic! Hope you enjoy it!
Map Bot rolls a double and moves the piece up the board, landing on a property. DJ grins. âOh, looky here~!â He sang with a wide smile. Freddy froze, his eyes fell to the particular spot that the music manâs token landed on.
 âDJ.âÂ
âAn unclaimed property~!â smugness is written all over the spider animatronicâs face, âAnd itâs an orange one too~.â The glamrockâs eyes grew. He stares at the disc jockey as he feels a sense of panic, âDJ, NO.â The animatronic giant lowers his face, his eyes taking in Freddyâs growing distress. âDJ, yes.â He uttered, almost in a whisper. Pulling back, the music man turns to the bot.Â
âI buy it.âÂ
âYOU-!â The lead singer cuts himself off. He groans loudly as he watches the property he needed be added to DJâs stack. The robotic spider chuckles, âAn animatronic once warned me about all that gloating I did. Maybe, you should listen to that advice.â Freddy narrows his eyes.
 âI will get you, just you wait.âÂ
âI donât see how,â The music man gestures to the board, âAll thatâs left is this yellow property, and I-â He then proudly points to himself, âam going to claim it.â The robotic bear glances at Map picking up the dices. He had forgotten that the giant animatronic rolled a double, which means an extra turn to roll again.Â
It takes all of Mapâs willpower to not cave under the intense stare from the glamrock leader. She knows heâs watching the dices in her hands, but it just adds on to the pressure that is already on her to roll a good number. With a desperate shake, the animatronic worker releases them. They land on the board and offer a four. She moves the dog piece to the stops on chance. Not again, the bot sighs. Is this going to be a good chance, or is this going to leave one of these animatronics gloating and taunting each other even more kind of chance? Either way, Map Bot is getting the short end of the stick. She pulls out a card from the deck.Â
âYOUR BUILDING AND LOAN MATURES, COLLECT $150.â She reads. DJ happily beams as the animatronic worker places the fake currency in his stack. âYour turn, Freddy.â says the music man. The orange glamrock takes the dices. As he shakes them, his eyes scan the board. Probably-no, the bear animatronic IS calculating the number of moves he needs. Her eyes gaze down with curiosity. She had been keeping track of the properties bought in her CPU. There is still a yellow property that has yet to be bought. Knowing Freddy, he might be aiming for it. With confirmation in his gaze, the glamrock bear releases the dices.
A three.
He frowns, moving his hat token and landing on a railroad that he owns. âMy turn.â DJ stated. Map rolls the dices, they land and give a seven. She moves the token. Freddy watches, until he notices how close the piece is getting to the unclaimed property. His eyes widened the closer the token became to that very spotâŠuntil it landed on it. The robotic spider rests his head in his hands, âA yellow property, my lucky color.â The glamrockâs brows furrow as the helplessness sinks in. âNoâŠâ is all the robotic bear can say as the bot gives the music man a confirmed nod.
DJ has enough funds to buy it.
âI like to buy this property, maâam.â The animatronic spider smirked. He won; he has the game in the bag. Once the property card is in his deck, the disc jockey is going to sing his victory-Â
âYOU CANNOT.â
The words snap him out of his feel-good moment. He looks down at the animatronic worker. ââŠWhat?â He asked, dumbfounded. She nervously clarifies, âYOU DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT FUNDS TO PURCHASE THIS PROPERTY.âÂ
âI DONâT?!â His shock finally breaks through his calmly smug demeanor wide open. It causes the robotic bear to burst out laughing. DJ whips around to the smaller animatronic. âSTOP LAUGHING!â He growled, trying to keep the volume from rising any further. However, that only made the glamrock laugh even harder. The disc jockey tries to cover his cheeks that are burning red as the wonderful sounds of Freddyâs laughter fills his audios.Â
âSORRYâŠâ
The two stop and turn around to the bot, âI MISCOUNTED.â Both animatronics rush to her side. âPlease, do not blame yourself, Map. It was a simple mistake.â assures the animatronic bear as he pats her on the back. DJ nods. âRight, thatâs on me.â He gives her a gentle smile, âI was being reckless with my money; I shouldnât have been so hasty.â For once, the animatronic worker felt the tension dying down. Almost as if things might return to how things were at the beginning of the game. âIt is nice to hear that you have learned a valuable lesson.â The lead singer replied, with that subtle hint of taunting. The robotic spider stuck his tongue out at the orange glamrock in response.Â
Map sighed.
Some time has passed, and Map Bot is tired. The game has gone on longer than she could even fathom, and every time she glances at her internal clock, she feels time is mocking her with how slow the minutes have gone by. The two animatronics have been at it in their insistence to win, neither of them backing down and at this point she had tuned most of their taunting. âWeâre tied.â That brought her back to the game. Both DJ and Freddy, staring at the board for any unclaimed property left. Map goes over the results:Â
Freddy had just snagged the last yellow property, leaving both of them with incomplete sets of all the properties available. âAre there any property left?â questions the glamrock leader. The music man squints his eyes, searching for any remaining color. Maybe, this is itâŠthis might actually end with a tie. The thought alone begins spreading a sense of relief for the bot. An end to this horrible game that she will NEVER bring back up again. In fact, the animatronic worker might throw it in the trash compactor afterwards. She doesnât care how angry the human employees will be if she goes through with the idea, this thing needs to be vanquished so that no other-Â
ââŠYes, there is!â The animatronic spider points at the corner where the Go spot is located, âThe blue! The blue properties havenât been claimed yet!â All eyes lean in to see. Indeed, two blue properties close to the go square. They had completely forgotten about them. The bot groans as the two animatronics lock competitive eyes. She picks up the dices and lazily shakes them. âCâmonâŠcâmonâŠâ chants the eager disc jockey as Map drops them down. She didnât bother to keep track at this point, she just wishes for the game to end. âYES! GOT A PIECE!â the happy cheer from DJ is all the animatronic worker needs to take the fake money and add the property into his stack.
âShoot!â Freddy said, an indicator that missed the other blue property. The rolls keep going, and the pieces continue moving across the board. Both missing the last blue property that sits right next to the go spot. Please, let this be over. Map Bot promises to be less annoying when offering maps, just let. This. End!
A token finally lands on the last blue property. A dog token. âAt lastâŠthe last blue.â DJ grins from audio-to-audio like a mad animatronic, âAnd this time, I HAVE the money for it.â The bear animatronicâs shoulders slump, his head drops as he accepts his defeat.Â
âBut, you know what? Iâm willing to trade it off to you.â
Freddyâs head shoots up, âR-really?!â The smugness of the music man returns. âSuuuure, trade me your orange property and Iâll hand over this blue property to you.â He points to the one specific orange property. That property had a hotel and house tokens on it, jacking up its price to ludicrous numbers. The lead singer had turned the property into a financial death trap for the disc jockey to strip away his remaining fake cash. If given to himâŠit would be the glamrock who would suffer. DJâs smirk confirms the robotic bearâs growing suspicion:
He wants to make Freddy broke.Â
The giant animatronic is willing to prolong the game a little longer to bankrupt the glamrock leader. Freddyâs smile fades as a serious frown plants itself firmly in his expression.Â
âNo.â
The robotic spider innocently tilts his head, âAre you sure, my Melody Bear?â
âIf I give you that property, I would be financially ruined if I fall on it.â The lead singer stated. His stack of cash isnât as only enough to be a few dollars above DJ. He canât afford to put himself in jeopardy. Sitting straight, with his chest puffed up with pride, the glamrock bear stares the music man in the eyes.Â
âI would rather lose with grace than suffer bankruptcy.â
That strong sense of resolve, the giant animatronic would be lying if he said he didnât respect that. It actually causes a genuine smile to break through his smugness. Though, he has to cut the moment short. He can congratulate the smaller animatronic on such dignity later. âOh well, I offered.â DJ turns to Map Bot, âI would-â
âTHE BANK IS BROKE!!â
DJ blinks, âHuh?â Map Bot starts gathering everything and stuffing them back inside the box hastily. âTHE BANK IS BROKE! THERE IS NO MORE FUNDS! IT IS A DRAW!!â She exclaimed. The two animatronics stare in confusion at her sudden âMap, wha-â before the robotic spider can ask, the bot rushes out with the board game. The bear animatronic reaches out to her. âW-wait, Map!â He called out. However, the animatronic worker is gone, leaving the two alone.
âIâŠthink we went a bit too far.â The music man uttered. Thinking back on their behaviors through the game, they begin to realize that they maaay have taken it too far. At least, when it came to the poor botâs expense. âI think we didâŠâ agrees Freddy. Though, remembering the sheer ridiculousness of their taunts and attitudes during the game causes both of them to laugh. âAh well, guess thatâs that!â says the giant animatronic. As he adjusts to a more comfortable position, the orange glamrock gets up and sits close to him. âI did not expect you to turn so competitive like that.â The robotic bear said. DJ gently wraps his arm around the smaller animatronic, âI wanted to spice things up a bit, she looked a bit bored.âÂ
âAnd now, she is horrified.â The lead singer noted, with a hint of worry. YeahâŠthe spider animatronic should have toned it down when she started showing signs of nervousness. The problem was that he got caught in the moment, it was actually fun to exchange snarky remarks. âDonât worry, Iâm sending her an apology message right now.â He replied. Through his interface, the animatronic spider had written almost a whole essay number of apologies for scaring the poor bot. He knows that next time she comes to see him, Map will surely give him an audio full for putting her through that. However, the music man sees it as a well earned punishment for all of it. âThough, YOU surprise me.â DJ gazed down at the glamrock bear, âI didnât think you could be so ruthless.â
The animatronic bearâs ears wiggle as a light blush forms on his face. That was something Freddy had usually kept in check. He knows how incredibly competitive he can be at times, the high scores displayed on his arcade machine in his green room were once filled with nothing but his high scores in the past. Way before the VIP children were given permission to play it. What separated the glamrock leader from his two competitive peers is his need for things to be fair. Most of the games built within the pizzaplex are rigged by design, their purpose to force kids to shell out as much money as possible. As a result, the robotic bear found himself pushing his needs aside to focus more on allowing others to have a chance to win.
This was the first time he played a game that wasnât designed to be rigged. The first time he let loose and allowed himself to be a player and less of a guiding handâŠIt was nice. A smirk appears on the lead singerâs muzzle. âLooks like you still have much to learn about me.â He said. The animatronic giant smiles. âWell, considering that Iâm the winner-â
âIt was a draw.â Freddy reminded. âDebatable.â DJ lowers his head and nuzzles the glamrock in his arm, âHow about we chill like this for the remainder of our time?â The robotic bear lovingly returns the gesture.
Lily: Here's part three of the third fic! Is a little short, but we hope you all enjoy it!
This was becoming more competitive the longer this board game continued for Map Bot. Like everyone else, she thought that Monty and Roxy playing against one another would be tense but thisâŠthis is making her rethink that thought. Freddy has managed to gain an extra turn from rolling a double and is making it to the other side of the board. Meanwhile, DJ tries to get a doubleâŠand fails. âOh dear, no double.â a calming smile graces the robotic bearâs muzzle, âBetter luck next time, my dear Titan.â The orange glamrock isnât fooling anyone, heâs enjoying the animatronic giantâs struggle. It didnât help that said animatronicâs flushed face is brighter than the dance floor.
When it was the lead singerâs turn, he rolled the dices and received a six. He moves his token down the board, passes go, and lands on a property. The animatronic worker hands the glamrock bear his fake $200, when he notes.
âOh look, a purple property.â
The music manâs eyes grew at the announcement. That property hasnât been purchased yet! âFREDDY DONâT YOU DARE-â The disc jockey shot up from his spot. Thankfully, the game was undisturbed from the sudden movement. Unlike Map, who jumped. Once again, Freddy continued as if he wasnât being stared down by the spider animatronic. âAnd look how cheap it is!â He said with glee. Taking out the amount needed, the animatronic bear hands it to the startled bot.
âI would like to buy this, please.â
A low bass sound erupts as DJ lays back down. Though his irritated gaze did not leave the smaller animatronic. Map Bot quickly exchanges the money for the card to the collected bear animatronic. âThank you, Map.â says the lead singer. His grin is ever so cheerful, but the reason behind it made it all the more vicious. She nervously glances at the giant animatronic, âAH-â
âTHE DICE. PLEASE.â
She grabs the dices as swiftly as she could, nearly dropping them in the process. With a fierce shake, Map Bot drops them on the board. âStill no double,â Freddy frowns, âit seems that luck is not on your side right now.â Another groan from the disc jockey.
Another turn trapped in jail.
Freddyâs turn, he rolls another double. His piece moves all the way to the chance slot. Map takes out a card and reads, âTHE BANK PAYS YOU $50.â The glamrock beams, âHow lucky! It seems I am on a roll! Do you agree?â DJ could only drop his face into his hands. At this rate, the glamrock leader might actually win. Another extra turn, another roll, and the robotic bear receives a four. As he moves his top hat token across the board, he pauses on the jail slot. The smaller animatronic gazes up at the robotic spider, waves, then returns to finishing his turn. The savagery isnât going to stop, is it? The animatronic worker can only watch, baffled by the behavior that is coming from them.
âKeep on FreddyâŠkeep onâŠâ is all DJ utters at the response. The piece finally lands on a lavender property, one that has a little house token on it. Now, it was the spider animatronicâs turn to be smug. âHah! pay the rent!â He said. The robotic bear shrugs. âThat is alright.â He gives the fake currency to the bot, âConsider it my sympathy pay for the struggles you may endure once you are free.â She never knew such a kind animatronic could come up with these kinds of takes. The disc jockey smirks, âOh sure, from one convict to another. How generous you are, Jail bear.â
The reminder is enough to wipe the smile from Freddyâs face. He crosses his arms as he narrows his eyes at the animatronic giant. âSticks and stones, DJ. Sticks and stones.â The bear animatronic replied, earning a chuckle from the robotic spider. DJâs turn arrives, and Map Bot rolls the dices. Everyone watches them in anticipation as they land on the board.
They offerâŠa double.
âYES!!â The music man threw his fists in the air, âA DOUBLE!! IâM FREE!!â He realizes his excitement made his voice too loud for the smaller animatronics as they cover their audios. âSorryâŠâ He apologized. He lays back down with new vigor. âNow, itâs time we end this!â Map can see determination sparkling in the disc jockeyâs eyes. Freddy smirks as a chuckle slips out, showing just as much determination in his stare.
âHm, I hope you have enough money left to try.â
Things only grew more tense from here on out. DJ continues to buy more: a purple property, another yellow property, and the water company. Freddy swiftly blocked the robotic spiderâs every move by buying the properties he needed to finish his colors. The orange glamrock bought the last lavender property, the last green property, and even snatched up another railroad along with the electric company. Map Bot nervously watched the feud unfold, shrinking back as the two animatronics glared each other down.
Sheâs beginning to regret ever introducing them to this board game. All itâs doing right now is turning the kindest animatronics into the most vicious beings imaginable. âYour move.â states the spider animatronic in a stern tone. The lead singer takes the dices, shakes them, and throws them onto the board.
A ten.
The glamrock leader moves his token, passing the red properties and the railroad. Counting the paces in his head as his piece continues down toâŠHis movements slowed as his eyebrows furrow. Two steps awayâŠfrom jail. DJ notices and starts smiling.Â
âWhatâs wrong, Freddy? Whyâd you stop?â
The bear animatronic narrows his eyes up at the music man, before turning his attention to the bot. âIs thereâŠ?â He begins to ask, only for the animatronic worker to shake her head. âTHE ONLY WAY TO AVOID JAIL IS BY A âGET OUT OF JAIL FREEâ CARD.â She informed. âThenâŠâ Freddy looks down at the space. DJ cups his cheeks with his hands. âFreddy is going to jail?! Oh, Freddy!â He fakes a gasp, âI never thought I would live to see the day when you, of all animatronics, end up behind bars!â The glamrock bear rolls his eyes, âJoke all you want, DJ, I still have more money than you.â
âAnd yet none of it can help you get out of it right now.â The robotic spider chuckled. Unfortunately true, Freddy will have to wait for it to be his turn again for the option to be available. For now, it meant that his token would remain in the jail slot for the time being. As the lead singer reluctantly places his top hat piece in the prison corner, the music man motions the animatronic worker to grab the dices. âMy turn.â He announced smugly. Map Bot shook them and letâs go. They land on the board, both sporting a four. âOh sweet, a double!â DJ grinned.
She moves his piece through the board and lands on the jail section where the bear animatronicâs token is sitting. The bot sighs, here comes the taunting. âHeeey, jail bear~.â The disc jockey lets out a sing-song taunt. Though, the musical tune sounded weirdly flirty to her for it to be a taunt. It even gives the spider animatronicâs smirk an oddly romantic feel to it. He leans close to the smaller animatronic with half lidded eyes. âI guess I know why this cage bear sings~.â He sings. Freddyâs face reddens, whether from embarrassment or frustration the animatronic worker couldnât tell. The glamrock leader looks away as his ears wiggle fiercely, âWould you move?!â DJ chuckles and pulls away. âSuch sweet sorrow~.â Map can hear a noise from the lead singer, who still refuses to stare at the animatronic giant.
Is he irritated? Is he touched?
She canât tell.
Regardless, the bot takes the dog token and continues to move it past the jail section. It eventually lands on the community chest. Map Bot picks a card from the community card deck. Her eyes widened. âC-COLLECT $50 FROM EVERY PLAYER.â She reads. The animatronic bear whips around in shock. âWHAT?!â His wide eyes gaze at the laughing disc jockey, âNO!â The return of the lead singerâs desperation only made the music man enjoy the sudden luck even more. He gestures over to the nervous animatronic. âCâmon, Jail bear, pay your dues.â He tells the orange glamrock. Freddy grits his teeth, but he gives the amount to the bot.Â
âAaaah, this is so sweet, too sweet.âÂ
The glamrock leader shoots an annoyed stare at him. âI would be careful with all of that gloating. Luck has a way of changing on a person.â He warned. This is starting to get out of hand for the animatronic worker, and the robotic spiderâs taunts aren't helping. Speaking of DJ, he shrugs nonchalantly.
âWell, Iâll just savor your time in prison.â
Map Bot eyes the two animatronics, the tension in the atmosphere growing around them. Itâs the glamrockâs turn. âY-YOU CAN PAY THE $50 FINE TO GET OUT-â She starts but doesnât finish as the lead singer swiftly places the fake money into her hand without breaking eye contact with the animatronic spider. Her gaze fell at the money, shocked at how fast he managed to give her the exact amount. Was Freddy always that fast, or is his determination to win this game heightening aspects of his motor skills? Whatever it is, the robotic bear had already rolled the dices on the board way before she realized it.Â
 A nine, he grabs his piece and heads up the board. He lands on an orange property that hasnât been claimed, and quickly counts his currency. The speedy bear animatronic begins to slow down as he finishes. As a frown sets in on the smaller animatronic, DJ tilts his head. âYou donât have enough to pay for that orange property, do you?â He asks even though he already knew the answer from Freddyâs expression, âItâs okay, Iâll buy it in memory of your efforts in the future.âÂ
The orange glamrock doesnât say anything, resisting the urge to pout as he hands Map the dices to do the music manâs turn. She rolls them, a five. She moves the token and lands on chance. Picking up a card from its deck, the animatronic worker reads it.
âŠAnd goes completely silent.
The two wait for her to read the card. When she doesnât, the disc jockeyâs eyebrows furrow. âSomething wrong?â He questioned calmly. She shot up at him, panicking. âUHâŠUMMMâŠâ The sudden sense of calm only made it worse. How is he going to react with this card? Should the bot even read it??? The bot jolts upon feeling something touching her shoulder. She turns to find the lead singer offering her an assuring smile, âGo on, what does the card say?â Map Botâs shoulders slump, giving them one more look before closing her eyes. Might as well get it over with.
ââŠG-G-GO S-STRAIGHT TO J-JAIL.â
DJâs eyes grew as her words registered. âEXCUSE YOU???â His voice raised, but not to the point of screaming. Still, the animatronic worker braces for the worse when she hearsâŠlaughter. Actual laughter. Her eyes open to the sight of the glamrock bear laughing hysterically, clutching his torso. âMy, my, have the tables turn!â says Freddy as his laughter continues. The robotic spiderâs usually chill demeanor breaks. His face grows red the longer it goes. âStop taunting!â The animatronic spider growled in a struggle to keep his voice in check. The robotic bear soon calms down.
âMe?â Freddy motions to himself while giving the most innocent look, âI did not say anything mean.â A few more chuckles escape him. DJ narrows his eyes at the smaller animatronic, âLaugh it up, while you can. I WILL get out.â The glamrock points at the small amount of fake money next to Map Bot. âI am afraid you do not have the financial means of leaving the jail cell.â He stated. The bear animatronic spoke the truth, the music man had been focusing on buying property that he was low on funds. Meaning, that freeing himself by payment is out of the question. The giant animatronic turns to the bot. âMAP.â the sense of irritation and distress in his voice can be heard. He didnât even need to finish the sentence for her to know exactly what he was asking.
âDOUBLES!â She quickly answers, âY-YOU MUST ROLL DOUBLES TO LEAVE OR SERVE ALL THREE TURNS!â DJ lets out a low noise in frustration, most likely a groan. He really should have been more cautious in his spending.Â
âYou have such a lovely voice.â
Freddyâs smile seems sweet at first glance, but there is a subtle hint of smugness hidden within it. âI can hear it all the way from the prison walls.â The robotic bear said, lovingly. An obvious flush form on the disc jockeyâs cheeks, yet his feelings somewhat remain the same. âEnjoy the small victory, Freddy. I will be back with a vengeance.â DJ warned. The glamrock leader isnât fazed, his happy expression becoming a bit smug at the comment.
D&F: Here's the third fic out of four! This one's on board games!
Lily: This one was broken into parts, due to how incredibly long it was. So, enjoy part one of the third fic.
The human employees have loads of games hidden within the break rooms. With how overworked they tend to be, it amazes Map Bot that any of them had time to play. She noticed that DJ and Freddy had been trying to entertain themselves, and it was always nice that they included her. WellâŠthinking on that, they kind of have to in order for the giant animatronic to participate in most of the games. Though, that isnât the point. The point is that one of her robotic colleagues found a board game hidden in the security office they were cleaning and gave it to the animatronic bot to deal with it.
========================
âA board game?â Freddy tilted his head. DJ grins, âYeah, itâs a game about economics. Seems like it can be fun.â Map begs to differ, but she wonât voice that out loud. âI HAVE SEEN THE HUMANS PLAY THIS.â She admitted. Actually, this one is played the most by the human workers. They usually end up incredibly emotional and even ready to get into conflicts over it. She has been curious over the reason behind it, but that answer is most likely going to be unanswered considering who will be playing. âAlright, we can play one game.â agrees the glamrock bear.
===========================
Whatever excitement one would expect from the run of the game is nonexistent with these two. DJ and Freddy are the two friendliest animatronics in the whole pizzaplex, neither will stir up a fuss unless they are pushed into it. Map Bot lazily watches from the sidelines. She was automatically made into the banker to manage the important aspects of the game. Since the board game is constructed to be played for however long it can until all players go âbankruptâ, everyone agreed to shorten the game to whoever gains at least all color property first. If a player ends up running out of money before accomplishing the goal, then that also counts as a loss.
It also made the robotic worker realize how surprisingly cautious the two animatronics are, Freddy more so than DJ. They both still have a good chunk of money on them, despite their spending: The music man had already gotten two lavender properties, a red property, a yellow property, and a green property. Freddy managed to get an orange and a light blue property. Both of them have purchased a railroad, with the disc jockey recently obtaining a second one. If one had asked the bot, it seems that the spider animatronic was more invested in gathering a whole property set than the glamrock leader.
Freddy had been more focused on not getting in the robotic spiderâs way. Every time he landed on a color property that DJ needed, he refused to buy it. She silently sighed, maybe introducing them to this game was a bad idea. âYOUR TURN.â Map groaned to the animatronic giant. The three of them sat on the music manâs stage. He winks at her, âCan you kindly do the honors?â She picks up the dice, shakes them, and lazily throws them on the board. The two dices landed and offered a seven.
Map Bot grabs DJâs piece, a dog token, and moves it along the board. It passes GO, receiving $200 dollars in the process, and lands on a light blue property. âWOULD YOU LIKE TO BUY THIS PROPERTY?â says the animatronic worker. She already knows itâs going to be a no from the disc jockey, so-
âYes, I would.â
She paused and looked up at the music man, âWHAT?â
âI said I want to buy it.â He clarified. Freddy blinks, âDJ, that is a light blue property.â
âAnd?â
The glamrock shows the animatronic spider the property card he already has, âI need it.â
âIâm sure you do.â DJ said. The lead singer looks even more confused, âThenâŠwhy are you buying it?â The robotic spider gives the smaller animatronic a smirk. âCause, I wanna win.â He gestures his cards to the bot, âPut the card in my pile.â She blinks, astonished by the sudden ruthlessness that the music man displayed so casually. What happened? Is Map Bot dreaming right now? IsâŠis the effects of this game starting to take hold of him? Regardless, she deducts the amount of money needed to buy the property and starts to take out the card until the glamrock bear stops her. âW-wait a minute! That is not right! We are supposed to be playing fair!â Freddy argued. The disc jockey rests his head in his hands, âWe ARE playing fair, Freddy. This is how the game is designed.â That is unfortunately true, in a game that is based on the financial side of life it is going to be brutal. âHE IS CORRECT.â She added.
The poor animatronic bear stares at the two in distress. âStill-that is preventing me from progressing!â He stated. The bot turns to DJ who isâŠactually enjoying the robotic bear struggle. âAwww, I guess you should have been a bit luckier in nabbing some more color properties.â He teases with a chuckle, âItâs okay, we canât all be winners.â She whips around to Freddy. The lead singer had gone silent, even he is shocked by the giant animatronicâs reaction. Yet, it fades away as a firm frown sets in. A blank expression that oddly feels stern to her. Grabbing the dices off the board, she hands them to the orange glamrock. âYOUR TURN.â She tells him.
He doesnât break eye contact with the smug music man as he takes the dice. âThank you.â the tone is as emotionless as his face. The glamrock leader shakes the dices in his hand and throws. They land on the board and give him a four. Freddy finally looks away to move his piece, a top hat token. Fitting, since he wears one himself. It passes the free parking space and lands on a red property. âI would like to purchase this one.â He said before the animatronic worker could ask the question. DJ frowns, âFreddy, thatâs a red property.â The animatronic bear glances up at the robotic spider. âI see that.â He then let out an obviously fake gasp as he points, âAnd look, it only required you to obtain all three to have the full set.â
Oh no.
âYeah, soooâŠâ The disc jockeyâs brows furrow, âI need it.â For the first time since Map Bot has seen these two together, Freddy IGNORES the giant animatronic. No acknowledgement of what was said, not even another glance. He hands her the appropriate amount of fake money, âHere is my money, Map.â The worker animatronic hesitates, before slowly taking the currency from the orange glamrock.
âOKAY.â
âFreddy!â
She winces from the slight boom in DJâs voice. The robotic bear remains unfazed. âOh, I apologize, do you wish to have it?â He calmly questioned. The spider animatronic narrows his eyes down at him, âYes! I made it obvious that I need it!â Map turns to the glamrock bear. He extends his hands to the music man and simply states, âThen trade me MY property that you bought up.â The disc jockey froze, his face sporting a static expression as his body calms. âIâm not giving you MY property.â He uttered in a serious tone. Freddy retracts, âThen, I am afraid the feeling is mutual.â She nervously hands the glamrock the property card.
Map Bot has a sinking suspicion that things were going to be intense from here on out.
Lily: Sorry for this one being late, I was busy yesterday and didn't have time to post this properly.
D&F: This fic is less lovey-dovey. Though it was fun to make and different!
Card games are weirdly complicated yet provide the most exciting fun in a competitive sense. Monty isnât big on card games, heâs a golf player. Though, heâd be lying if he said that it didnât get his wires surging with adrenaline. The looks on everyoneâs faces when he manages to win a round, and the amount of gloating he can do after it.
âŠToo bad those moments are rare.
Hence, why the animatronic gator isnât too keen on playing card games that much. He almost always loses. Almost, as the bassist had a win here and there. He HATES playing against Roxy because her competitive streak comes out in full force.Â
Sheâs a sore loser AND a sore winner.
Whenever he manages to beat her, the robotic wolf would go off on him. Very colorful insults get thrown that, even with their censor program on, did little to block such phrases that clearly used no swear words or anything the dumb thing considers offensive. If she wins, the keytarist rubs it in Montgomeryâs face HARD and will still mention his defeat for weeks in the most subtle ways. Which is why the green glamrock had been secretly practicing his card playing skills online.
Some humans within the staff managed to set up a private card game online to play on their break. It can be played alone, or with others through servers. Monty always played on the private server, as he doesn't want anyone to know he is using it. Here, he felt like he was getting a hang of the gameâŠwith the help of a tutorial. Slowly, but over time the robotic alligator was understanding it. To the point that Montgomery is able to get a few wins off of the computer.
Then comes GARY.
Gary, the online user who suddenly sent Monty a request to play together. It startled the glamrock gator, no one was supposed to be playing the game during work hours. Much less be using the very server he was logging into. Yet, the bassist played along and agreed to play with the user.
That ended up being Montgomeryâs biggest mistake.
Every. Single. Game against Gary ended with the robotic alligator losing. The guy was just too good, and the animatronic alligator hated it.
He was determined to beat Gary by any means necessary. Every free time that the robotic alligator had was spent on mastering the cards.
Now, Monty is ready.
Logging on the server through his interface, the gator animatronic is greeted by two other users: Geologamaps and UrsineStars135. Geologamaps is on the left with a squared image of a globe, while UrsineStars135 is placed on the right with a squared image of a starry night. âA full houseâŠâ Montgomery crossed his arms. Itâs closing hours, but a few of the workers remained to finish some business within the shops of the megaplex.Â
[ So, what should we play? ]
[ Goldfish? We havent play it in a while. ]
The bassist ignored the text bubbles, he was more focused on his target. Gary. âWhere is he?â The robotic gatorâs tail switches impatiently as he walks around the miniature golf table, âHe better not have left early.â A ping catches the robotic gatorâs attention.
: GaryvEEE65 HAS LOGGED IN :
âFinally!â Montgomery exclaimed. He quickly sits down and texts.
[ Ur late GARY. Wat took u?! ]
A square-shaped image of a smiley face appears across from the glamrock gator. [ Ah KajuIn1O. Nice to see you again âș. ] reads a text bubble above the smiley picture, [ Ready to play? ] Smug as always, the cheeky user. The green glamrock huffs, [ Watevr! Just choose a game already! ] Heâs ready, tonight WILL be the night that Gary is going DOWN. Another text bubble appears above the other user.
[ Hey Ursine! Lovely night weâre havingâ„ ]
Monty groaned. There Gary goes flirting with Ursine, again. He ALWAYS does this! It annoys the robotic gator, because all of that flirting takes up time from the game! And URSINE, whoever this user is, it is SOO clear that they like Gary. Every single flirt the guy throws their way receives a ââ„â at the end of their sentences. Itâs cheesy, it makes Montgomeryâs eyes roll, and it irritates him. That, and Ursine keeps bringing up space facts. Which reminds the green glamrock of FreddyâŠ
His eyebrows furrow. Has Ursine been hanging out with Freddy? Would make sense, the bear animatronic seems to be obsessed with that kind of stuff. Or, maybe Ursine is a Freddy fan-
[ Earth to Kaju! Weâre waiting for you to accept âș! ]
The bassist notices the message from Gary. At the bottom of the screen is a pop-up message that reads, âAccept the game? Yes / Noâ [ Oh. Sry. ] Monty texted before pressing the yes button.
The game begins.
Geo is selected as the dealer to deal the cards on the virtual table. âOkay, Monty,â the robotic alligator cracks his neck, âtime to beat Gary. Once and for all.â His hand raises up in front of him: Two queens, two fours, two twos, a seven, a six, an eight, two jacks, a nine, and a five. HuhâŠa bit more cards in the animatronic alligatorâs hand than usual, but whatever. Another message suddenly appears, before the glamrock.
âHow much will you bet?â
Weird, why would the game ask that? Isnât the betting feature turned off? With a shrug, Montgomery looks at his choices and chooses ten. Each text bubble reveals what everyone betted. Geologamaps bets three, UrsineStar135 bets three, and finally Gary bets three. Hah, only three? Losers. When the green glamrockâs text bubble appears to show his bet, the reactions from everyone confuse him. [ Um, Kaju, maybe you should redo your bet. ] texted Ursine. Despite there being no audio behind those words, it is clear that the user wrote it with concern.Â
[ Too high. Go down :( . ] Geo texted. [ Yeah buddy you have it too high. Lower it to a reasonable number for yourself âș. ] texts Gary. Monty snaps out of his confusion. [ Wat? U think I cant win 10 points or smthn?! I show all of u! Just watch! ] He angrily texted. Heâll show them! Getting ten points will be a breeze for the bassist! In fact, the glamrock gator will get far more than ten! Like, a hundred points or something!
======================
âŠâŠWhyâŠis Montgomery LOSING?!
He doesnât understand, heâs playing the game, right?! Right?! Then, why does the robotic alligator only have ONE POINT OUT OF TEN?! Geo had gotten all three points, Ursine had gotten FOUR points out of three! Gary? âŠThat cursed user has FOUR. POINTS. OUT OF THREE, TOO! Monty sat there in shock. Heâs down one card.
The jack of spades.
âI donât get itâŠâ He muttered as he stared at his point again. One. Just one point out of ten. The dread begins to sink in, the green glamrock is going to lo-NO! He fiercely shakes his head. Montgomery can still win this! Just play this last card and hope for the best! âCâmon cardâŠâ He utters to himself, âhelp me win.â Ursine sends out a nine (â ), and Geo throws out a four (â ). When itâs Garyâs turn, the user uses a six (â„). Montyâs eyes grew.
He has the stronger card!
The bassist sends out his jack into the pile, and the stack is automatically given to him. âYES!!â The animatronic alligator cried out with excitement. His body jumps off the couch as his fists punches the air. He did it! HE finished the game! HE WON the game! HE BEAT-
The results pop up.
Montgomery eagerly reads the verdict. The scores are tallied up, and according to it Monty and Geo had gottenâŠ-38 total points. His toothy grin shrinks as the enthusiasm within him fades.
âŠWhat?
âYou lost.â the text reads at the top, âYou did not collect all of your bet.â
âŠ..He lost?
The glamrock reads further. Gary and Ursineâs total points are 62 points.
Freddy can hear a muffled scream from outside of his green room. He knows the reason behind it, Monty is about to have a temper tantrum in his green room. Thankfully, the girls were hanging out in Mazercise, so they are far away from the upcoming mess. The robotic bear sent a message, [ You could have gone easy on him. ]
[ Sorry! I got caught up in the game âș! ]
A small smile appears on his face as he leans back against his couch. [ I know âGaryâ, but you need to learn to have some restraint. ] The glamrock bear was introduced to the game by DJ, who had a fun time beating the employees under his online disguise. He didnât even find out about the online rivalry the bassist had with the music manâs persona until the robotic spider brought it up in their casual conversation. The lead singer pauses for a moment, [ I do not think Monty even knew we were playing Spades. ]Â
Spades, a trick-taking card game in which spade cards always trumps. It can be played in pairs or alone against three other players. The rules revolve around being able to succeed in filling out oneâs bet. Each player sets the number that they plan on collecting before the start of the game. That becomes their goal in how many âtricksâ, or piles of cards, they need in order to win. Each player throws a card into the center of the table. The card with the highest number in the pile, goes to said player that used it. Spade cards are the strongest, and easily overpowers any card that isnât another spade. In pairs, the player and their partner must help each other meet their set number before the other team. The game is over when all players have no cards left in their hand.Â
The game isnât played by the staff, mostly due to the majority not understanding how to play the game properly and the others not wanting to be accused of gambling during work. However, it was found in the list of games that was available, and DJ was eager to try it out after playing it solo for a while. Though, the glamrock leader will admit that it took some explaining what bet meant in the game for him to be okay with playing it at all. [ Well we did try to tell him. ] texts the music man, [ I mean weâre playing in pairs. ] True, Freddy was paired with the robotic spider while Geologamaps, who was Mapbot, was paired with Montgomery.
[ He made me lose >:( . ] texts the animatronic worker. The poor bot got the short end of the stick when it came to choosing partners. The disc jockey had begged her to let him and Freddy pair up. Being a good friend, and fellow supporter of their relationship, Map agreed. What no one expected was for Monty to royally screw up at the game. He played almost all of his stronger cards, first. Then used up the rest of them without even realizing it. It was luck that the glamrock alligator managed to win at least TWO piles in the end. Sadly, that mattered little when the robotic gator failed to gather enough bets to meet the quota, he himself had set up.
[ We know, Geo. ] texts the robotic bear. Truly, he feels for the S.T.A.F.F. Bot. She was trying so hard to get Montgomery to listen to her in the whole ordeal, yet the gator animatronic had tuned everyone out. [ He. Made. Me. Lose. ] She texted. The emphasis alone tells the orange glamrock that Map is still furious. [ I am sorry, I will pair with Monty next time. ] He offered. It isnât much, but itâs the least that Freddy can do.
[ Better >:( . ]
[ Hey now don't be so harsh on him, itâs a game. Live a little âș. ] The glamrock leaderâs ears wiggle as he reads DJâs text. His hero. Another text bubble pops up, [ Okay sheâs giving me an earful so I gotta go. ] OhâŠsheâs personally there with the giant animatronic. That canât be good. His ears pick up a muffled sound of a large object coming in contact with a solid surface. Oh no. [ I have to go, too! Monty is about to wreck his room! ] Freddy frantically texted before closing the game. He rushes out of his green room to stop the enraged glamrock alligator from decimating as many things that are within his reach.
Looks like DJ and Freddy ended up being the real losers.
D&F: Here's the first of the four fics that is made! Hope you enjoy it!
When it comes to games, there are very few that DJ can participate in. Despite all of the arcade machines that litter his attraction, the music manâs size prevents him from playing any of them. The buttons are far too small for his gloved hands to handle, and the screenâs size is difficult for him to focus on. The spider animatronic is also restricted in where to go, so visiting the other attractions are a no go as well.
Not that it would matter anyway, since the disc jockey is, again, too big to fit any of them.
However, DJ was okay with watching Freddy play. The skills that the orange glamrock display with the games fascinate the robotic spider. Fast precision, unbreakable focus, and the fierceness in the animatronic bearâs eyes. The disc jockey only caught glimpses of those moments on rare occasions when he crawled along the walls, but they are ingrained in his CPU. Thatâs why, when the music man caught the robotic bear playing an arcade machine during his casual wandering, he immediately crawled over.Â
DJ made sure to be careful as he descended down the wall. Freddy seems to be playing Furyâs Rage, judging from art that decorates the sides of the machine. He slowly leans close. The lead singerâs eyes are glued to the screen, his fingers mash the buttons at a breakneck speed that it shocks the music man. Peeking from the bear animatronicâs side, the robotic spider can make out an orange fighter fiercely fighting a giant black blob. The only orange fighter that is present in the game is the fighter version of Freddy. He smiles, cute that the glamrock leader is playing himself. Speaking of the glamrock bear, he has yet to take notice of giant animatronic. It amazes the disc jockey that the smaller animatronic is able to tune everything out.
âŠSo, why does DJ have this urge to mess with him?
A frown forms, the music man really shouldnât. Who knows how long it took for Freddy to reach this level. And yetâŠthe urge is growing. DJ shakes his head. No, fight it, do NOT mess with the robotic bear. The spider animatronic opens his eyes to continue watching, only to find his hand is already reaching for the orange glamrock. Itâs too late to stop, the finger is already inches away from Freddyâs back. He bit his bottom lip as the touch connected.Â
âŠNo response.
The music man blinks. The animatronic bear continues playing as normal, no twitching, no recognition of the move. A few more blinks set in as the animatronic spider retracts his hand.Â
Now, his curiosity has completely taken over.Â
He carefully pokes the glamrock again, and again. Nothing has changed from the lead singer, who continues playing. Soon, the pokes turn into one long touch that went down the robotic bear's back. Finally, Freddy's body stirs. It then shifts under the finger and leans into it. The robotic spider pulls back, and the glamrock leader ceases. Strange, the music man tilts his head.
Does Freddy know he's there? To answer this question, the disc jockey let out a little noise. The orange glamrock's ear twitches to the sound of the musical note, but nothing else. The giant animatronic lets out a longer note, both ears twitch. The music man releases more notes that form together into a short song, watching the lead singer's head sway along with the music. It didn't take long for the humming to follow right after.
However, Freddy's eyes refuse to look away and his hands show no sign of leaving the button controls. This is amazing, the glamrock bear's ability to focus is far beyond the spider animatronic's imagination. He can probably do whatever he wants to the animatronic bear. A mischievous grin appears on DJ's face.
He extends his gloved hand towards the smaller animatronicâŠand plucks the small top hat from the bear animatronic's head. This usually gets a reaction out of the robotic bear, due to how much he treasures his hat. Right now? Not even a glance. The giant animatronic takes his other hand and begins rubbing Freddy's head with his index finger. The ears wiggle calmly to the gentle action as the head leans into it. DJ chuckles, this is cute, too cute.Â
Finally having enough, the spider animatronic returns the hat. Just as he retracts, the glamrock leader suddenly throws his arms up in the air. âYES!!!â He shouted, startling the music man behind him. Laughter escapes the robotic bear as his arms drop to his sides, âAaaah, I did it! I finally beat him!â Freddy happily turns around, only to find himself face-to-face with the robotic spider. The lead singer yelps.
His body jumps back in shock, before his CPU can register what was in front of him. He trips and falls into the comfort of the disc jockey's hand. When their eyes meet again, DJ gives the smaller animatronic a sheepish smile. âSorryâŠâ He apologized. The orange glamrock snaps out of his daze and shakes his head. âN-no, no! I should apologize! I was causing such a commotion that I disturbed you!â replies the frantic glamrock bear. The music man glances away, âActually, I was kinda the one doing all of the disturbing. I noticed you were playing and IâŠdecided to mess with you for a bit.â
The robotic bear raises an eyebrow. âMess with me?â He asked. âI picked up your hat from your head,â DJ confesses, âgave you head pats, and poked you a little.â Well, more than a little but the giant animatronic decided not to delve into that one. As he tells the animatronic bear, a flush forms on the other's cheeks. ââŠ.Oh.â utters the orange glamrock. The disc jockey didn't mean to cause Freddy to feel any kind of humiliation from this.Â
âLike I said, sorry.âÂ
âDo not be! I did not notice them at all!â the glamrock leader assures, âAnd I still won the game, so you did not do any harm!â The robotic spider beams as he helps Freddy back on his feet. âWell, let me offer you my congratulations for winning the game.â He said. The music man leans in, lifts the glamrock's hat, and leaves a kiss on his forehead.Â
âCongratulations, my Melody Bear.âÂ
Freddy's entire face turns a deep shade of red as he gazes up at the disc jockey. âThank youâŠâ He smiled. DJ happily points to the other arcade machines, âHey, wanna play the other arcade machines? I promise I won't mess with you while you play.â Excitement sparkles within the bear animatronic's eyes.Â
D&F: Here's the final fic out of the four fics finished! More will come in the future! Just have to focus on the other fics on Ao3 for now!
They have been dating for a long time now, and things are great between the two animatronics. The two spent time together, made songs together, and even shared a kiss. Yet, it was always Freddy who had to do a lot within the relationship. Freddy was the one who brought the games that they played, the gifts that DJ kept, and made the effort to come visit.
The music manâŠcouldnât do most of those things.
The games he could suggest either required the assistance of the S.T.A.F.F. Bots or were simple enough that they could be played by children. His gifts to the glamrock were songs that, while they always came from the heart, sometimes didnât feel like they were enough. However, the one thing that bothered the disc jockey the most was that he couldnât visit Freddy.
The portions of the pizzaplex were too small for the giant animatronic. Which further limits his existence to his attraction. Rockstar Row was not built to let in a two-story animatronic, nor did it have the entrance for one to squeeze into. DJ hated it, it felt like his size did nothing more but hinder himself and everyone around him.
Including Freddy.
He ponders on the problem. What can the spider animatronic do? How can he properly show the robotic bear his affections? DJ sighs, lazily lying on his stage as he browses through his private collection. Pictures of Freddy posing for the music man, some genuine poses while others are rather silly for fun. A smirk crosses the disc jockeyâs face. Being with the glamrock leader always led to learning something new about him. Yes, Freddy can be kind and helpful, but he can also be funny. Heck, there were times when the lead singer got a little mischievous with DJ despite how much of a boy scout he can be.
The animatronic giant stops on one image of the orange glamrock. In it, he displays the brightest smile the music man has ever seen on the animatronic while holding a poster in hand. That was during the time a field trip was occurring in the nearby observatory and the company offered to let the class enjoy some fun at Fazer Blast for a discount. Freddy was so excited; he went on and on for days about being able to hear some of the lectures about the planets from an actual astronomer that accompanied the class. It was a wonderfulâŠtime.
DJâs face lit up.
===========
Freddy sighs as he finally arrives at Fazcade. Band practice ended up being a lot longer than usual due to the new choreography confusing them. Chica and Monty found themselves bumping into each other, while the animatronic bear and Roxy ended up in each otherâs spaces every time. It was clear that overtime will hit them in future practices as the company RARELY, if ever, reschedule or delay a stage performance.
Once he sees the giant animatronic waving at him, the stress withers away. âI am so sorry I am late.â Freddy gives the robotic spider a tired smile, âPractice did not go so well today, so we will be very busy for the rest of the week.â He honestly wishes that wasnât the case, because it meant that the lead singer will see less of DJ during the remainder of said week. Still, it is his duty to bring smiles and excitement in the hearts of those who come to the pizzaplex, and that is something that the robotic bear values deeply. The music man grins, âThen itâs a good thing youâre here now!â The disc jockey lays down as he extends his gloved hand to the smaller animatronic. âGet on, I want to show you something!â He instructed. The glamrock leader blinks. âAlright.â He said as climbs onto the hand.
DJ boosts the glamrock up, allowing the bear animatronic to get on his back. âSo, what is it that you wish to show me?â Freddy asked. âItâs inside of the tunnel.â answers the allusive music man. The orange glamrock is even more confused. âInside theâŠtunnel?â He repeated. What could possibly be within the tunnel that the spider animatronic wants him to see? DJ glances at him, âYep, hold on my sweet Melody Bear.â The robotic bear blushes profusely at hearing his nickname, earning a warm chuckle from the animatronic giant as they went inside.
============
The tunnels are surprisingly dark the further they venture. Even when there is still light from the entrance, the darkness is all encompassing. Now that Freddy thinks about it, this is his first time being in the tunnels. As the built-in highlights turn on, his eyes examine the enclosed surroundings. Everything feels soâŠnew, like he is journeying to an unknown area of the megaplex. No, this is part of DJâs world, one that only he alone has access to. The glamrock leader looks up and notices something on the ceiling. Itâs small, yet it glitters despite the illuminating highlights that dampens the dark. Then another one catches his attention.
âŠAnd anotherâŠand anotherâŠ
Together, the little lights formed a shape that is all too familiar to the bear animatronic. âIs thatâŠâ His eyes widened, âThe Big Dipper?!â He isnât seeing things, that is actually THE Big Dipper! The robotic bear had to hold himself back from standing up and attempting to touch them. Hearing the thrill from Freddyâs voice causes DJ to smile, âOh, I see you noticed.âÂ
âAnd there! The little Dipper!â The lead singer points to another glittering formation on the ceiling. The disc jockey paused. With his eyes, he gestures to the one little light that is a different color than those present around it. âThatâs Polaris, or what is commonly known as?â He glanced at the fascinated Freddy. âThe North StarâŠâ utters the orange glamrock. Constellations, visible constellations hovering above them with the shine that the darkness itself could not fully engulf. The glamrock bear gazes down at DJ, âHow?!â The music man grins.
âWeâre just getting started.â
Deeper into the tunnels introduced more constellations as they continued: Ursa Minor the Little Bear, Virgo the Maiden, Summer Triangle, Cygnus the Swan, Aquila the Eagle, and Lyra the Harp to name a few. So many different star alignments all decorate the ceilings and upper walls as the two animatronics travel. They arrive at the center point of the tunnel ways; all entrances to the various tunnels connect. Though, what greets them is not just more constellations, but a whole diagram of the solar system. All of the known eight planets, plus Pluto, sparkle as they orbit around a bright sun. âI cannot believe thisâŠâ Freddy muttered, covering his mouth.
âI had some help from the S.T.A.F.F. Bots, and Sun and Moon, to get this all made for youâŠas a gift.â DJ reveals, âSorry about this part being so cluttered, I wanted them to surround the image of our solar systemâŠbut we kinda ran out of space.â The glitter on the planets was done by Sun with the very glitter glue used to glue them up on the ceiling. The stars are glow-in-the-dark stickers, leftover from an employeeâs mistake in ordering too many in shipment, which were borrowed by the worker bots to create this spectacle. Moon used his acrobatic skills to put them all together. The disc jockey aided them in every way he could, from giving them a boost, carrying the materials, to instructing them on how it should be structured.
All of thisâŠjust for the glamrock bear.
Freddy is speechless, he never would have dreamt to be given something like this. DJ gave him a replica of space. One that can only be found within the confines of the pizzaplex. âThis is so beautiful!â He hugs the back of the spider animatronicâs head, âThank you! Thank you, I love it!â Heat rises in the music manâs cheeks. He closes his eyes to bask in the feeling of the embrace, âIâm glad.â As long as the smaller animatronic enjoys the gift, the robotic spider is happy.Â
âAlthough, there is one thing that is missing.â
The animatronic giantâs eyes shot open. âThere is?!â He frantically looks at each of the hand-made constellations, âW-which one?! I thought I got them all-â DJ suddenly felt a small peck behind his head. He froze. âMy dear Titan, you have forgotten yourself.â Freddy tenderly rubs the back of the disc jockeyâs head, âI appreciate this wondrous gift, just as much as I appreciate you.â A warm smile appears as he leans against the music man. There are so many things the glamrock bear wishes he could say, to describe just how deeply DJ means to him. The gift, the love, everything that the robotic spider gives the bear animatronic is beyond anything anyone has ever given in an entire lifetime. Yet, the words that float in his mind were never enough to represent the feelings deep in his battery core. SoâŠhe settled for three simple ones.
âI love you.â Freddy spoke.
DJâs eyes grew, before they softened. All of the robotic bearâs emotionsâŠthey resonate inside of the giant animatronic from those words alone. He couldnât help but beam as he replied, âAnd I love you.â Together, they look up at the ceiling and gaze at the stars and planets around them.
