🚂 .. doesn't really notice when he's regressed but it's rather obvious to everyone around him (especially tangerine of course)
🚂 .. tangerine is his comfort person and older brother figure
🚂 .. talks even more about thomas the tank engine but instead of wisdom and metaphors it's random plot points and character fun facts ... trails off into mindless babbling more often than not
🚂 .. gets really grouchy and whiny when he's sleepy and has to get forced into bedtime/a nap
🚂 .. sleeps better with a plastic toy instead of a plushie
🚂 .. obsessed with stickers and sticker reward charts
🚂 .. is not interested in using a paci but will definitely suck his thumb - especially if sleepy, concentrated or upset
🚂 .. since thomas the tank engine is a rather old show him and tangerine often scour ebay for old vintage toys and magazines
🚂 .. also likes other old low-stimulating shows with strong morals like bear in the big blue house or adventures of the gummi bears
🚂 .. LOVES these activity sheets you get at restaurants or long train rides (tangerine always carries crayons/colored pencils for him)
🚂 .. loves cuddling and curling up in someone's arm
