Tier 5 of the Dummybots! Desk Drummer and the Specialist Work Martyr!
Theyre based off of instruments and plushies!
Desk Drummer: someone who taps or drums their fingers on a desk or other surface, often as a sign of boredom, impatience, or fidgeting.
I would think, a school house would have a bit of a music room! this one is made out of a Timpani, Tambourine, A microphone (in the chest) and a speaker! (in the leg) ive made this one the most accidentally coglike after the whiz. which is funny considering i think this one doesnt work at all! Making a desk symphony is much more important. i wanted to use percussion instruments to highlight this.
Work Martyr: someone who puts their job above their own well-being. They may feel guilty taking time off, and may work long hours to compensate.
i think this one being the most toon-adjacent to be fun. its still.. not actually a toon. actually its just has the head of a plushie.. and the body of one too. i wanted to invoke the traditional iconography of a martyr. or a sacrificial lamb. but i didnt want to get weird and religious and i found the bunny to work really well as its ears follow the book flaps! the paper is part of the cog, i like the look of it being a much smaller, more pathetic being thats being crushed under the work load.
