"Huhehehehehe..."

[PT: Huhehehehehe... ]

Welcome to my Frickbear's 3 Fritz Smith parody/RP blog which is owned by Beatrice/Mortality/Goof(aka, @fleeglefazbeagle ).

Things to note:

•This interpretation of Fritz goes by it/he/that pronouns.

•This blog and its characterization of Fritz is canon divergent which means that while there are some elements of his source counterpart, there will also be headcanon and even AU(Frickbear's: Fricked Up) elements, so bear in mind.

° Elaboration on that here.

•While comedic in nature, there will be mature things in it(don't worry, there will be trigger warnings and don't worry, there won't be anything NSFW).

•The DNI and fandom/creator blacklist from my main blog also applies to this blog too.

Rules:

•No god-modding for Christ's sake.

•When interacting, remember to be kind and keep the interactions SFW.

Associated tags:

• ♡The Ratman speaketh⁠♡ = When in-character.

• Locking in = When out of character, aka, when it's me talking.

• Friend for Fritz? = When answering asks.

Ey Fritz watcha think of the idea of people forming a polycule between them and their yumeship that's of the same characters for both

I'm planning on spreading it across the social medias

"I-I is in a polycule, I'm a-aware, I no mind at all aaas long as it's consensual, obviously."

"Also, uhh.... Vannabelle likes f-fictional characters and s-selfships and I'm ok with it."

"To a-adds to it, I...hehehe...."

(Fritz giggles at the thought of machinery with the wires and stuff as he twirled its hair.)

"I...l-likes things-es sometimes..."

[laflecheduciel]

" Meow meow meow meow meow "

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrrrrrrrah!"

[laflecheduciel]

" Meow!!! "

She's so :D after that awww

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr-ah, mrrrrrrr-ah."

[laflecheduciel]

" Prrrrmeow "

If she still had a tail, it'd be wagging like crazy right now

[talesoftheratman]

"Brrrt!"

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SUFFER BECAUSE H-HOW YOU WERE BORN! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LIKE TO LOSE YOUR MAMA AND DADA TO A F***ING BEAR! YOU DON'T KNOW W-WHAAAT IT LIKE TO LOSE Y-YOUR AUNT DUE TO AN ILLNESS! YYYYOU... DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO...G-GET BEATEN UP WHICH LED TO MY B-BRAIN DAMAGE, YELLED AT AND CAGED BY YOUR UNCLE B-BECAUSSSE YOU "WEREN'T A NORMAL MAN" AND WAS "TOO HYSTERICAL", A SMALL DOG CAGE MIND YOU! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIIIIIKE TO BE BETRAYED! YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SPEND YEARS BEING HOMELESS AND HHHHHAVING TO DEEEEEAL WITH A**HOLES THAT BERATE YOU, TH-THREATHEN YOU, MOCK YOU OR ACT LIKE YOU'RE THHHHHIS....FREAKSHOW ATTRACTION J-JUUUST BECAUSE YOU ACT THE WAY YOU DO! DON'T G-GET ME STARTED ON THE MURDER A-ATTEMPT I HAD TO DEAL WITH YYYYEARS AGO WHICH LED TO ME AND H-HUDSON DEVELOPING PYROPHOBIA! THERE'S ALSO TH-THIS TIME I GOTS HARASSED BECAUSE I WORE A DRESS, A F***ING DRESS, I FELT F***ING SICK BECAUSE OF THAT INCIDENT TO THE POINT OF WANTING TO DIE AT ONE POINT!"

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

We just leave you to it then. Come back to the Pizzeria if you need anything, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz slightly whines a bit before curling up into a ball.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm.. okay, fine. You can stay here. Just for one night, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks up in confusion. "Is that actually allowed?" It thought in his head.)

[frickingnightguards]

Dude? Are you sure?

Look, Mike. I own him for making him feel the pain and despair.

But what about the Animatronics? And The Boss.

Daisy will be okay. Jeremy will help him get through it.

If you say so.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz tenses up a bit at the mention of The Boss considering, ya know, that version of The Boss doesn't seem as fair as the one from its universe.)

"N-nevermind..."

[frickingnightguards]

But.. okay.

[talesoftheratman]

"I s-sorry... :("

"D-do you waaaants the b-blanket back, it yours?"

[frickingnightguards]

No, you can have it. I have extra blankets back home.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the blanket, looks at the other Vanessa and then back at the blanket.)

"M'kayyyyy...."

[frickingnightguards]

Consider that as an apology gift.

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma...."

[frickingnightguards]

So what now?

It's almost 12:00 AM. You should head back to your home before animatronics wake up.

[talesoftheratman]

"Okayyyy, byyyye...."

(Fritz says as he shambles away whilst clinging to the blanket like a child with a security blanket or a plushie.)

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SUFFER BECAUSE H-HOW YOU WERE BORN! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LIKE TO LOSE YOUR MAMA AND DADA TO A F***ING BEAR! YOU DON'T KNOW W-WHAAAT IT LIKE TO LOSE Y-YOUR AUNT DUE TO AN ILLNESS! YYYYOU... DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO...G-GET BEATEN UP WHICH LED TO MY B-BRAIN DAMAGE, YELLED AT AND CAGED BY YOUR UNCLE B-BECAUSSSE YOU "WEREN'T A NORMAL MAN" AND WAS "TOO HYSTERICAL", A SMALL DOG CAGE MIND YOU! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIIIIIKE TO BE BETRAYED! YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SPEND YEARS BEING HOMELESS AND HHHHHAVING TO DEEEEEAL WITH A**HOLES THAT BERATE YOU, TH-THREATHEN YOU, MOCK YOU OR ACT LIKE YOU'RE THHHHHIS....FREAKSHOW ATTRACTION J-JUUUST BECAUSE YOU ACT THE WAY YOU DO!

THERE'S ALSO TH-THIS TIME I GOTS HARASSED BECAUSE I WORE A DRESS, A F***ING DRESS, I FELT F***ING SICK BECAUSE OF THAT INCIDENT TO THE POINT OF WANTING TO DIE AT ONE POINT!"

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

We just leave you to it then. Come back to the Pizzeria if you need anything, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz slightly whines a bit before curling up into a ball.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm.. okay, fine. You can stay here. Just for one night, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks up in confusion. "Is that actually allowed?" It thought in his head.)

[frickingnightguards]

Dude? Are you sure?

Look, Mike. I own him for making him feel the pain and despair.

But what about the Animatronics? And The Boss.

Daisy will be okay. Jeremy will help him get through it.

If you say so.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz tenses up a bit at the mention of The Boss considering, ya know, that version of The Boss doesn't seem as fair as the one from its universe.)

"N-nevermind..."

[frickingnightguards]

But.. okay.

[talesoftheratman]

"I s-sorry... :("

"D-do you waaaants the b-blanket back, it yours?"

[frickingnightguards]

No, you can have it. I have extra blankets back home.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the blanket, looks at the other Vanessa and then back at the blanket.)

"M'kayyyyy...."

[frickingnightguards]

Consider that as an apology gift.

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma...."

[laflecheduciel]

" Meow meow meow meow meow "

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrrrrrrrah!"

[laflecheduciel]

" Meow!!! "

She's so :D after that awww

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr-ah, mrrrrrrr-ah."

[laflecheduciel]

" Meow meow meow meow meow "

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrrrrrrrah!"

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out.

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

We just leave you to it then. Come back to the Pizzeria if you need anything, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz slightly whines a bit before curling up into a ball.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm.. okay, fine. You can stay here. Just for one night, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks up in confusion. "Is that actually allowed?" It thought in his head.)

[frickingnightguards]

Dude? Are you sure?

Look, Mike. I own him for making him feel the pain and despair.

But what about the Animatronics? And The Boss.

Daisy will be okay. Jeremy will help him get through it.

If you say so.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz tenses up a bit at the mention of The Boss considering, ya know, that version of The Boss doesn't seem as fair as the one from its universe.)

"N-nevermind..."

[frickingnightguards]

But.. okay.

[talesoftheratman]

"I s-sorry... :("

"D-do you waaaants the b-blanket back, it yours?"

[frickingnightguards]

No, you can have it. I have extra blankets back home.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the blanket, looks at the other Vanessa and then back at the blanket.)

"M'kayyyyy...."

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

We just leave you to it then. Come back to the Pizzeria if you need anything, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz slightly whines a bit before curling up into a ball.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm.. okay, fine. You can stay here. Just for one night, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks up in confusion. "Is that actually allowed?" It thought in his head.)

[frickingnightguards]

Dude? Are you sure?

Look, Mike. I own him for making him feel the pain and despair.

But what about the Animatronics? And The Boss.

Daisy will be okay. Jeremy will help him get through it.

If you say so.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz tenses up a bit at the mention of The Boss considering, ya know, that version of The Boss doesn't seem as fair as the one from its universe.)

"N-nevermind..."

[frickingnightguards]

But.. okay.

[talesoftheratman]

"I s-sorry... :("

"D-do you waaaants the b-blanket back, it yours?"

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SUFFER BECAUSE H-HOW YOU WERE BORN! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LIKE TO LOSE YOUR MAMA AND DADA TO A F***ING BEAR! YOU DON'T KNOW W-WHAAAT IT LIKE TO LOSE Y-YOUR AUNT DUE TO AN ILLNESS! YYYYOU... DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO...G-GET BEATEN UP WHICH LED TO MY B-BRAIN DAMAGE, YELLED AT AND CAGED BY YOUR UNCLE B-BECAUSSSE YOU "WEREN'T A NORMAL MAN" AND WAS "TOO HYSTERICAL", A SMALL DOG CAGE MIND YOU! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIIIIIKE TO BE BETRAYED! YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SPEND YEARS BEING HOMELESS AND HHHHHAVING TO DEEEEEAL WITH A**HOLES THAT BERATE YOU, TH-THREATHEN YOU, MOCK YOU OR ACT LIKE YOU'RE THHHHHIS....FREAKSHOW ATTRACTION J-JUUUST BECAUSE YOU ACT THE WAY YOU DO! DON'T G-GET ME STARTED ON THE MURDER A-ATTEMPT I HAD TO DEAL WITH YYYYEARS AGO WHICH LED TO ME AND H-HUDSON DEVELOPING PYROPHOBIA! THERE'S ALSO TH-THIS TIME I GOTS HARASSED BECAUSE I WORE A DRESS, A F***ING DRESS, I FELT F***ING SICK BECAUSE OF THAT INCIDENT TO THE POINT OF WANTING TO DIE AT ONE POINT!"

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

We just leave you to it then. Come back to the Pizzeria if you need anything, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz slightly whines a bit before curling up into a ball.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm.. okay, fine. You can stay here. Just for one night, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks up in confusion. "Is that actually allowed?" It thought in his head.)

[frickingnightguards]

Dude? Are you sure?

Look, Mike. I own him for making him feel the pain and despair.

But what about the Animatronics? And The Boss.

Daisy will be okay. Jeremy will help him get through it.

If you say so.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz tenses up a bit at the mention of The Boss considering, ya know, that version of The Boss doesn't seem as fair as the one from its universe.)

"N-nevermind..."

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SUFFER BECAUSE H-HOW YOU WERE BORN! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LIKE TO LOSE YOUR MAMA AND DADA TO A F***ING BEAR! YOU DON'T KNOW W-WHAAAT IT LIKE TO LOSE Y-YOUR AUNT DUE TO AN ILLNESS! YYYYOU... DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO...G-GET BEATEN UP WHICH LED TO MY B-BRAIN DAMAGE, YELLED AT AND CAGED BY YOUR UNCLE B-BECAUSSSE YOU "WEREN'T A NORMAL MAN" AND WAS "TOO HYSTERICAL", A SMALL DOG CAGE MIND YOU! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIIIIIKE TO BE BETRAYED!

THERE'S ALSO TH-THIS TIME I GOTS HARASSED BECAUSE I WORE A DRESS, A F***ING DRESS, I FELT F***ING SICK BECAUSE OF THAT INCIDENT TO THE POINT OF WANTING TO DIE AT ONE POINT!"

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

We just leave you to it then. Come back to the Pizzeria if you need anything, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz slightly whines a bit before curling up into a ball.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm.. okay, fine. You can stay here. Just for one night, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks up in confusion. "Is that actually allowed?" It thought in his head.)

[fleeglefazbeagle]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SUFFER BECAUSE H-HOW YOU WERE BORN! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LIKE TO LOSE YOUR MAMA AND DADA TO A F***ING BEAR!

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

We just leave you to it then. Come back to the Pizzeria if you need anything, okay?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz slightly whines a bit before curling up into a ball.)

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out.

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[frickingnightguards]

Well Daisy. I'm glad that you like it.

[talesoftheratman]

"Mrrr......ma....."

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SUFFER BECAUSE H-HOW YOU WERE BORN! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LIKE TO LOSE YOUR MAMA AND DADA TO A F***ING BEAR!

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Here. (Gives her the blanket) Hope it's comfortable.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz hugs the other Vanessa's blanket, clinging to it like a koala.)

"Ma.......ma......"

[frickingnightguards]

Mama? Wait.. Oh! That blanket is something he has when he is a child. That's cute.

His Mama must've gifted it to him as a present.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just rubbing his head off of the blanket, occasionally chittering. The blanket that Vanessa had earlier definitely looks somewhat similar to Fritz's old blanket from when it was a kid.)

"Ma.....mrrrrr........ma......eh....."

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SUFFER BECAUSE H-HOW YOU WERE BORN! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LIKE TO LOSE YOUR MAMA AND DADA TO A F***ING BEAR! YOU DON'T KNOW W-WHAAAT IT LIKE TO LOSE Y-YOUR AUNT DUE TO AN ILLNESS! YYYYOU... DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO...G-GET BEATEN UP WHICH LED TO MY B-BRAIN DAMAGE, YELLED AT AND CAGED BY YOUR UNCLE B-BECAUSSSE YOU "WEREN'T A NORMAL MAN" AND WAS "TOO HYSTERICAL", A SMALL DOG CAGE MIND YOU! Y-YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIIIIIKE TO BE BETRAYED! YOU D-DOOOON'T KNOW WHAT IT LIKE TO SPEND YEARS BEING HOMELESS AND HHHHHAVING TO DEEEEEAL WITH A**HOLES THAT BERATE YOU, TH-THREATHEN YOU, MOCK YOU OR ACT LIKE YOU'RE THHHHHIS....FREAKSHOW ATTRACTION J-JUUUST BECAUSE YOU ACT THE WAY YOU DO! DON'T G-GET ME STARTED ON THE MURDER A-ATTEMPT I HAD TO DEAL WITH YYYYEARS AGO WHICH LED TO ME AND H-HUDSON DEVELOPING PYROPHOBIA! THERE'S ALSO TH-THIS TIME I GOTS HARASSED BECAUSE I WORE A DRESS, A F***ING DRESS, I FELT F***ING SICK BECAUSE OF THAT INCIDENT TO THE POINT OF WANTING TO DIE AT ONE POINT!"

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past.

[frickingnightguards]

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[OOC: While Fritz is able to handle a lot of things but when it comes to either genuinely life threatening stuff, really nasty people or comments, fire, tight spaces with seemingly no way out, aggression or overall stress, he kinda stresses out. There are also moments where if there's a slight mistake made or if there's a reaction that's slightly off, that will panic mainly due to trauma considering what it went through.]

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, we're like that.

Well, not all the time. I mean, sometimes Mike Jeremy and I get scared. Fritz gets scared when something manages to creep up on him or someone else spooks him for a change.

If that happens, well, that person is going to put up their dukes! I mean it! Unless it's my co-workers, then no.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it's more than juuuust getting scared by sneakiness or w-whatever, i-i-it's...."

(Fritz wants to continue but he's afraid of either not being understood or being mocked.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We won't judge! Right?

Oh yeah!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is very hesitant, he doesn't wanna seem like a burden to them nor does it wanna potentially scare them.)

"I-I-I....uhhh....."

*Grehhhh*

"I hhhhas been...hurt.....a-a lot....many ways...."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, do tell! Maybe I'll use them to my advantage!

He won't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches a bit, effectively hunching over.)

"Th-this exactly one of them! People takes w-what they knows of me a-a-and use it against me!"

"This is w-why I don't wanna say!"

[OOC: You might wanna be careful with what you say or do next just in case it freaks out more, potentially leading to him having another episode.]

[frickingnightguards]

What, no, I wasn't going to use it on you. I was going to use it some random people like animatronics or something.

Dude! What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to freak him out!?

No, I'm ain't!

(Growl at him, little bit, and looks at Daisy concerned for him, hoping that she or Fritz didn't say the wrong words)

[talesoftheratman]

"S-SOME OF IT INVOLVED PEOPLE C-CALLING ME SLURS AND B-BEING HORRIBLE TOWARDS ME BECAUSE I-I AM JUST TH-THIS... MENTALLY ILL AND DISABLED INTERSEX QUEER WHO'S TOO DAMN SENSITIVE!!!"

"But yeah, o-ok, suuuuuuure you can handle it..."

(Fritz's eyes widened in horror after realizing it just snapped at his friends and probably gave away too much, just trembling and sweating.)

"I-I-I....I sorry..."

(That then turns away.)

"I'll l-leave, I c-clearly ruined everything, y-you probably hates me because I gots angry and said too much..."

[OOC: Yeah, it was THAT bad for Fritz...💔]

[frickingnightguards]

(OOC: God dang it! I screw it up!)

Oh... wow, that's... w-we don't... hate... you.. we... Did i do something wrong?

I-I...(Lays on the floor) I only wanted to... h-help... w-we didn't even k-know... (Whimpers quietly) Why do I keep trying to find answers... (Gets back up) Hey, we don't hate you.. but you probably hate me now.. I'll head to the office if you need me... which you probably won't consider that i keep on...(sighs and heads towards the office slowly in a depressed mood) I hate myself..

No, Vanessa, we didn't know that would.. Daisy, don't go!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just standing, he didn't even leave.)

"No, d-doooon't, don't leave...."

"I-I no hate either of you..."

"P-please...."

(Fritz whimpered, clearly wanting to cry.)

(It's scared, that wanted to explain but he was scared of the reaction.)

[OOC: Hey, listen, Fritz is prone to stress, you didn't think it'd go that far, it can still be fixed.]

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, don't worry. We are not gonna leave ya!

Look, we can still fix this. You fixed many things in the past. We fixed many things in the past. And I'm sure we can fix this too. Sure, I'm not like you from a different perspective, and I may not know what this uncle thinks he is, but if what you said were true, then HE WILL PAY in a non murder fashion! And I'm sorry for that bear who attacked your parents. Your parents probably think that you're the smartest person who ever lived like me! So... Shall we apologize to her together?

[talesoftheratman]

"......."

(Fritz wants to respond but it's worried that what he says will just make things worse.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Holds his hand gently and doesn't say a single word. Just a warm smile)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just looks at the other Fritz with wet eyes, still worried about pretty much everything. It's especially worried about the other Vanessa.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

I tell you what? I'll buy us a pizza here at Frickbears, huh? What do you say?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz shakes his head a bit, it doesn't really want a pizza at the moment, that just wants to relax first before it can do anything.)

[fleeglefazbeagle]

Psycho Foe Fredbear: *Exists*

"Frickbear's: Fricked Up" Fritz and "FrickingNightguards" Fritz:

One is absolutely horrified while the other is ecstatic.

(Thought this was funny in my head because the contrast is just funny to me. The duality of Fritz./silly)

@noahplayzzz

[frickingnightguards]

Heheheh! That Fredbear didn't know what's coming to him when I met him!

(Shakes a little after hearing that name) Yeah, yeah.. That one was.. mean but not scary, unlike that one.

(Gasp) Did you encounter him as well?

Kinda..

How was he?

Awful..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz peeks in.)

"Mrrrr?"

[frickingnightguards]

Eeeh?! Daisy? My word, you almost startled me.

Oh hey Daisy.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-sorry for scaring you... :("

[frickingnightguards]

Nah, it's alright. I used to scares.

(Grabs her shoulders and squeezes them)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz notices the other Vanessa's potentially tense posture and gets a bit worried.)

(It whines a bit.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmm? What's wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz wasn't quite sure how to describe it, so that mimics what the other Vanessa was doing for a moment as a demonstration.)

"Th-this. You ok?"

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, that. Just got reminded of the first time when I met... your Fredbear..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whimpers a bit, it remembers being told about that interaction.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hmmmm, yeah.. Not a fan of it.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz softly whines.)

"M'yeah...."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers) Why do I have to be the first one to meet him.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I 'unno...."

"He kinda g-goessss at random."

[frickingnightguards]

Am I even good enough to face him again?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz gets rather worried, it doesn't want her to get hurt.)

(He doesn't know what to say, so that just gently holds her hand reassuringly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at Daisy with a sad look)

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I is scared of him too...."

"B-but....I still defeats him since I hhhhhads the others with me..."

"Maybe....you can too, you... technically d-deal with your version of him before, it should count...I thinks..."

(It then gently hugs her.)

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah, but the difference is that we have to take on 20 mingames and 2 hours of a night.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I know but you knows what I mean..."

[frickingnightguards]

Yeah.

I wonder if Mike and Jeremy met the guy already?

I'm pretty sure you already said that.

I did?

[talesoftheratman]

"I-I don't think he said thhhat to my knowledge..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh well, sorry, Fritz.

It fine! My experience with him was a blast!

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz looks at the other Fritz with concern.)

"I-I-I still no get why you weren't scared..."

"I mean.... he's the r-reason why..."

(It wanted to finish that's sentence but he didn't wanna upset anyone.)

[frickingnightguards]

Well, he faced him with us, and he was fascinated that he's the only... thing that looked different and strange, unlike the animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

"I guess..."

(He fidgets with its fake tail.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Looks at the fake tail) Fascinating. Y'know, there are not a lot of rat animatronics.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz was relieved by the change in topic.)

"Y-you already sees my fake tail b-before..."

"Also, yyyeahhhh, there ain't much rats..."

"All I knows is what COULD'VE been Mr Helpful, Chuck E Cheese and the Rat animatronic from that old restaurant, I-I 'unno if you know that one b-buuut it from the same company as Candy's if I recalls c-correctly."

[frickingnightguards]

We went from talking about Fredbear to rat animatronics.. I'm okay with this.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz awkwardly paces around a bit in excitement, happy to talk about the things it likes.)

[frickingnightguards]

Say I didn't notice this just now, but you have eyelashes. OH, I see your game plan. You are using your cute/weirdness to trick the animatronics and go and deathcoin them! That's clever of you! Wished that I think of it!

Probably not it, but go off, i guess.

[talesoftheratman]

"No...?"

"I j-juuust wear eyeliner..?"

"A-also, everyone has eyelashes, mine are just more seen because of s-said eyeliner..."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. eyeliner.. gotcha.

[talesoftheratman]

"It ok."

[frickingnightguards]

Speaking of how you managed to defeat him? The same thing as we did?

[talesoftheratman]

("Aaand we're back to square one..." Fritz thought to himself in its head.)

"I...uhhhh...."

"Well, it n-not like yours as mentioned before..."

"I-it complicated."

[frickingnightguards]

Oh, sorry. I thought we were still on that topic.

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no...I no likes talking about....h-him..."

"I wwwwas talking about rat a-animatronics."

"I sorry... :("

[frickingnightguards]

No no no it's fine. (Goans) That was a stupid move of me.

Hey, only i get to do stupid things.

[talesoftheratman]

"Nonono, no!"

"It ok, y-you were curious..."

(Fritz blurts out in a panic.)

[frickingnightguards]

No, it was wrong for me to ask you that.

Uhhh, Hey Vanessa? Try to calm down.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is starting to worry and panic.)

"N-not again..."

(He whimpered to itself, that KNEW it was gonna get bad again.)

"L-look, you n-not bad for asking, you no b-bad, just c-curious..."

"W-we can talk about th-that thing a-a-another time, I can probably draw hhhhow we defeated him..."

(He's getting desperate for things to calm down, it does NOT want things to go bad again all because of a mention of a random topic.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Calms down before it even happens) Hmmmmm.. I'm cool. You're cool. We both calm.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

(He's glad things calmed down before it got really bad but still.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh god, I made him scared again. (Pets on the head) Hope this makes you feel better after my self-doubt.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit but allows the pets.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sigh) Yeah, sorry about that.

[talesoftheratman]

"I-it ok, not yyyyour fault, I just..."

(Fritz looks away a bit.)

"I j-juuust not brave l-like you lot, I-I needs to stop being so ssssensitive..."

(It muttered.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Sighs and wipes the tears away) Come, please.. She needs us.. whatever she wants it or not..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz clings a bit and nods very slightly.)

[frickingnightguards]

(They headed inside the office, and they saw Vanessa in a blanket being a really sad mess, emotionless)

Eeek..

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz jumps a bit at the other Fritz's yelp but then recovers after about a second. It then looks at the other Vanessa with a solemn look, clearly having been in her position before and also feeling extremely bad for snapping.)

[frickingnightguards]

Vanessa?

(Doesn't turn around)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz very slowly and hesitantly approaches the other Vanessa and once that got close enough, he slowly lays down next to her, looking up at her with soft, sad eyes.)

(It's just looking like this cat.↑)

[frickingnightguards]

(Still hasn't said anything)

Uhhh hey... I'm sorry for causing Daisy to snap. I was just being myself..

(Still nothing)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is quivering again, he feels like it's all that's fault for freaking out over a question and because of this, its own friend is suffering.)

(He wants to reach out but is afraid of accidentally setting something off.)

[frickingnightguards]

(She slowly looks to her left to find Daisy and Fritz)

Hello..

H-hey...

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines softly.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-Daisy? Please don't.. I'm sorry.. it's my fault that I made you this way.. (covers herself with the blanket)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz rubs itself off of her gently as if to silently say "don't be so hard on yourself, it's ok".)

"N-Nessie...you n-not thhhhe reason I act this way, the p-people that hurts me before are, not yyyyou."

[frickingnightguards]

(Whines with a bit of laughter) Why do I even exist?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz's stomach dropped at the question, it had similar thoughts before.)

(He hesitantly hugs her in the hopes she'll calm down and also to reassure her that it'll be ok.)

[frickingnightguards]

Am I the only one who's doing the job wrong?

[talesoftheratman]

"Y-yyyy-you're trying your best, everyone is..."

"It part o-of being a person, we makes m-mistakes sometimes..."

"You n-noooot bad at all...."

(Fritz explained shakily through tears, hoping it's understood.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Whimpers quietly in fear saying she deserves this)

[talesoftheratman]

"N-no, no, stop s-sayyyying that..."

"Y-you don't deserve hurt...."

(This was actually scaring him, it genuinely wants things to ease up.)

[frickingnightguards]

D-daisy.. WHY DID I CAUSED YOU TO BE MISERABLE!? (Hugs Fritz and Daisy)

(Sigh and start to tear up a bit but not crying) No no no don't say that.. You didn't mean this to happened. I'm the one to blame.

[talesoftheratman]

"S-stop it, you t-two, p-please..."

"Y-you didn't know it w-was that bad..."

[frickingnightguards]

I was trying to make her feel better.. sorry.

It's okay.. Fritz.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

I'm sorry.. (Hugs them tightly) for everything.. I cared about Mike. I cared about Jeremy. I cared about you. And I cared about myself before.. I wished.. I never do the things I do.. which makes me unique right?

Yes, it does.. not everyone is perfect. (Sits next to her and Daisy hoping that he could somehow in his own way fix this)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz doesn't say anything, it just stares into nothing while a tear occasionally falls.)

[frickingnightguards]

(There's just silence.. Peaceful silence...)

[talesoftheratman]

*Whine*

[frickingnightguards]

(Smiles while crying) Thanks for not leaving.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just shakily reaches for the other Vanessa's hand with a whine like as if he's a child wanting affection.)

"Mmm.....ma....mrrrr....ma...."

(It's still a bit teary eyed.)

[frickingnightguards]

There there Daisy.. I'm okay now.. shhhhh.. hmmmm... So.... nevermind.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is just clinging to her, occasionally whimpering a bit.)

"Ma....mrr.....ma....."

[frickingnightguards]

Mhmmmm.. (happily accepts the mrrrehing)

[talesoftheratman]

"Ma....."

(He's just being a little kid at this point./lh)

[frickingnightguards]

Are you.. (sigh) (pets him)

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz just leans into the pets whilst chittering.)

[frickingnightguards]

Hehehehe.. stretchy stretchy! (Stretches the chin) Hehehe.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz leans into the chin scratches, it's just purring a bunch.)

[frickingnightguards]

(Giggled) I feel a lot better now. Again, thanks for not leaving me behind. Both of you.

Hey, can we tell Mike and Jeremy about what happened?

Yeah, sure, why not.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit, it's not sure if it's a good idea mainly because of how they'd might react to what he went through in the past.)

[frickingnightguards]

Oh.. Daisy.. on second thought, don't.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz whines a bit again.)

[frickingnightguards]

Ugh.. what am I supposed to do? Daisy doesn't want us to tell Mike and Jeremy, but at the same time, He... (looks at the eyeliner) She... it wants us to tell. Hmmmm..

So what do you want, Daisy? Happiness or something like that?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz is conflicted now, context is needed but at the same time, it's afraid of the reaction to what he went through. The other Fritz and Vanessa seem to feel bad for that, so maybe the other Mike and Jeremy would be the same.)

(Fritz writes down the following: "One, I go by it/he/that, please don't use they or she with me. Just because I wear eyeliner, that doesn't mean you can she/her me, I don't mind fem terms, I just don't want to be referred to as a she despite me being a demigirl. Two, if you do tell them about what happened to me, please don't get too detailed, just explain that I went through more than just rejection, explain that I physically and mentally suffered because of some people not understanding me at all in the past. I suppose you can also mention that I lost my mama, dada and auntie if you want.")

[frickingnightguards]

Ah, okay.

Hey what's going on.

We heard yelling and crying!

Oh, speak of the duo.

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz flinches and proceeds to frantically write the following: "If you tell them, please tell them quietly and away from my earshot, I don't wanna hear it repeated near me. Once you finished explaining me to them, you can return to me.")

[frickingnightguards]

Hey, may I grab you two for a minute.

Okay

Sure.

We'll be back.

(They headed outside of the building for Vanessa and Fritz to explain what happened. Mike was shocked to hear the news, and Jeremy was worried, but They didn't give too much detail about it, and so they went back to the building)

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

[frickingnightguards]

Daisy?

[talesoftheratman]

(Fritz perks up a bit, still a little nervous.)

[frickingnightguards]

We heard what happened to you in the past.. We're sorry all of that happened to you.

Yeah.. that must've been terrible.

[talesoftheratman]

Fritz:

*Whine*
