(Artist's rendition) Entity 007: Bowlina Physical description: Gift box toon with (typically) red wrapping paper and (typically) green ribbon. Bow is upside down and positioned around the neck.

Background: Created for a holiday special of the show “Daisy Bell Playtime” titled “Joyful Jumble”, in which the characters celebrate Christmas, Chanukah, and Kwanzaa together. Bowlina mixes up the name tags on the presents she made for everyone and has to figure out which gift goes to who.

Abilities: High endurance. Can change color to be more vibrant or blend in with surroundings. When overworked, prefrontal cortex activates what is recorded as “play mode” and ███ ███████ █ █████ █████, ████████ ████████████. Entity 013: Batthew (‘Batt’) Physical description: Juvenile orange batlike toon. Wings are purple and resemble a cloak. Tail resembles an arrowhead.

Background: Created for a holiday special of the show “Daisy Bell Playtime” titled "The Tale of the Black River", in which the characters go trick-or-treating and Batt brags about getting the most candy. The others ask how he did it and he dares them to cross a river with a haunted mansion on the other side, being the first to cross himself. A ghost ship full of pirate ghosts appears on the river and the characters rescue Batt, who reluctantly shares his candy with them.

Abilities: Echolocation. Exceptional hearing. Night vision. Could potentially fly, but brain scans show no flight experience. Memo to staff: I know he isn’t the same as a real bat, but test 013 for zoonotic diseases just in case.

...well let's just... take a deep breath and try not to panic.

Batt: UUUAAAHHHH!!!! Bowlina: Shh... shh... take a deep breath... Batt: (snif) Uuu.... (hic) Bowlina: There, you got it all out. Do you feel better? Batt: A little... Bowlina: Good! Nothing wrong with a good cry. Batt: Are you gonna cry too? Bowlina: Don't worry about that. You're being very brave right now, okay? Batt: Okay...

i never said You were scared batthew. i said, others might be and its okay to be scared. and fear can be more complicated than one might think. like... you probably think people just hide and run when scared, right? there's actually way more things people do. ...for one... sometimes someone scared seems to freeze up. they can't run. they can't talk about it. sometimes one gets so frightened... they can't even think about the frightening thing. so its seems like they forgot. ...but it's more like they just need time to process. they can't think about it yet. can't speak yet. So... if you see someone scared like that... be patient with them ok?

(Batt quietly glances at Pounce as he's taken to be examined.)

A man with a metal arm is the first to come into the building after it opens and sees Batt. He looks at him for a minute before going to one of the staff.

"That's the bat kid who my brother has to test for illnesses on?" He asks. Seems like the company hired outside help.

(The staff nods and hands Batt over to the man.)

Batt: I'm... not scared!

Batt: I-I... I'm... I'm not scared...
