[one shot, SECOND POV]
Tw: none?
"It’s not breaking and entering if no one lives there!"…welll-
You vaguely remembered Gardenview, as a kid, you went to it a few times. A school field trip, you think. a day trip with one of your parents and a birthday party.
You remember thinking that the mascots were so realistic, it was almost like they were the actual cartoon characters. But that would be impossible. They must’ve had really good actors…
…right?
They had been so friendly and kind to you, they had been your friends. You loved going there, you’d watch the cartoon all the time. It was your favourite show, you owned a lot of the merchandise. You don’t remember how old you were, but eventually it closed down after an 'incident'.
It was..Disheartening to say the least.
You had decided to try to go back to that old building once, as a teen after that. You had been promptly kicked off the property after sneaking around… it had been years since it had been closed down.
Now you were back.
After exploring around the area outside of the chain-link fence that kept everyone out of the old building, you had found an old train tunnel that looked like it led into the building. You don’t..Remember a train being there? Though your memory could be off. It had been years..
Maybe it was for supplies?
Without hesitation, you slowly started your way down. Good thing you had your phone on you..Otherwise you’d be screwed for lights. You checked your phone’s battery; it was at 60%. That was enough juice to get you through. You figured it would be a good idea to walk on the tracks, it’s not like anyone would be driving any trains on here… at least you hoped.
You looked around with your phone, it was dark, obviously. It was really cold as well, you shivered a little as you continued your way down. The light of the tunnel started disappearing as you walked farther into the deep abyss of the train tunnel.
It smelt like wet stone, the tracks rattled underneath your feet as you hopped from wood panel to panel. Looking around to see if there was anything of interest…
There was minimal graffiti, which was weird, you wondered if you were one of the few people actually to explore this place.
You were curious about what could’ve been down here, you didn’t even know why you wanted to look around in the first place, you had always been fascinated by it. Maybe you could find some old goodies and sell them on eBay or something. You doubted there would be anything in good condition worth selling though…
It had been 10 or so years since they closed down for good.
It felt like it was going on forever. Nothing but wet stone, small pieces of graffiti, gravel and the seemingly never-ending tracks ahead of you. You almost thought about leaving when you noticed… A light up ahead? That was weird…But with nothing better to do, you pressed forward. The light got brighter and you had to squint a little, you turned off your phone's flashlight. Was it.. a train station?
"Odd." You thought, you didn’t remember anything like this, maybe it had been something that had been renovated before the shutdown?
You hesitated for a moment. Looking around the area briefly before looking back, you hadn’t seen this place before… You hopped up onto the deck and looked around, there were colourful benches pressed against one another, boxes pushed to the side and what stood out to you the most were three iron gate things that blocked you from going any further into this strange little area.
You peeked through, it looked almost like a lobby. You couldn’t tell much, but they looked to be two little shops given the little awnings. Paint was splattered on the ground. It was so… Colourful.
You decided to climb over the gate thing, grabbing each metal bar and pulling yourself up. It was actually quite easy, as soon as you climbed over the top, you hopped down and landed on your feet with a soft 'thud'. You grunted a bit when you landed, stumbling back a little.
...
You looked up at the gate before turning back to continue looking around, the lights were on and everything seemed to be in… Pristine condition. There didn’t seem to be a lick of dust or anything.
There were paint splatters on the ground and little things that showed that people had been here… Like a game of tic-tac-toe that had been finished. A jump rope that had been discarded, more benches… what was this place?
"Howdy." A cheerful voice called, and you jumped nearly out of your skin and quickly snapped your head around. You nearly fell on your behind. You saw….him.
Dandy.
Dandicus Dancifer...?
But… That was impossible, that couldn’t be! You had to be hallucinating. He smiled at you, his rainbow pedals were just as you remembered them, if not slightly duller. His big eyes pierced up at you, his rosy cheeks still warm as ever. "Whatcha doing here?" He asked.
"I-…" Your voice was caught in your throat, you stepped back. "…what..?"
".. are you okay there pal? You look….pale.." he said, his voice had a hint of worry. "You aren’t scared of a lil' flower like me, are you?" he chuckled a bit.
"… you’re real" was all you could muster. He stared at you for a moment. It was hard to tell what he was thinking, this had to be a dream. "Well, of course I am. Why wouldn’t I be?" he tilted his head, his voice sounded questioning yet rhetorical.
"How did you get down here, friend?" He asked. You stared at him for a moment longer. "…the… tracks.." you mustered up the thought to speak. He glanced behind you. Seeing the gate still intact he went to say more, but was cut off by someone else.
"There’s a human down here??"
Both you and Dandy looked over, it was..More of the toons.
Hello everyone! I am working on stuff. I’ve just been really busy with life.. hope you don’t mind the lack of posts for the past couple months. My mental health has been sporadic at best.. my province is on fire too
But I have been working on several things sporadically tho! So hopefully the end of this month or the start of August, I will post more!! :)
Would you guys like a one shot fic for dandy’s world X reader?
The idea is [reader character] breaking into the building and accidentally meeting the toons as I’ve REALLY into dandy’s world as of late and was just wondering if y’all would be interested in that…so
I really love your stuff and I wanted to ask for a request of my own
Do you think you can write something about a Human reader that does EGL drop into Home?
When you say EGL, I think that means elegant Gothic Lolita? At least that’s what I think you meant…….^^" apologies if I’m getting this completely wrong X(!!
Note: i’m not a fashion person so I don’t know jack about Gothic dress or that style of fashion… so forgive me if I’m incorrect about something! This is probably gonna be very short too… also sorry for disappearing basically…my mental health has gone down the drain!! Again… this year has not been my year </3
Tw: none!
Can be platonic or romantic!
Prettiest in all the land!
-Everyone found your sense of style to be quite interesting! You looked like a little doll to them. It was fun nonetheless.
-Julie really wanted to try that style! She was always up for trying new things, let’s hope you have some sewing experience because you’re going to have to make a dress for this little puppet lady! Even if it isn’t her style, she still had fun during the whole process!
-Poppy would quite appreciate the outfits you wear.. she didn’t realize she had a favourite style of outfit until you wore it around with such confidence. I think she’d like to dress up with you too.
-I think it would be difficult for Howdy to find your exact style if you wanted to buy more, but he’ll happily give you the materials to make new outfits and accessories!
-Wally may not get it at first, or ever… But to him, if you’re happy with how you style yourself, then that’s all that matters to him because you look the most.
-Sally thinks you look splendid! Like a little doll, she vaguely remembered having dolls when she was young..are you trying to be a doll??…no?? Nevertheless, your dazzling outfits always catch her eye! They’re so incredibly pretty, there’s so much lace and such! If you’re dressing femme, you remind her of a princess! A Gothic princess but a princess nonetheless!
-I don’t think Barnaby would have much to say on it, other than quick comments about you being a vampire if you have a parasol!… you definitely make a good vampire for Halloween if you ask him!
-I think Frank would also like some tips on how you dress like that, even though Frank doesn’t participate in EGL, they still quite like trad Goth! Maybe you could share make up tips with each other!
- you might’ve spooked Eddie slightly… at first at least! He wasn’t used to someone dressing like that to all of the time, you were so gosh darn pretty when he got used to it though! He likes painting your nails, even though you’re most likely to use black, but you do use some colour sometimes like purple and red…!

Started writing a bit, it will probably take me a little bit longer to actually post something, but… I thought this was funny and wanted to share with you all.
Can you write the welcome home cast interacting with a reader who speaks a different language? I don't really mean like they're bilingual like I meant they've almost never/to barely spoke English
I feel like reader could've watched the [their language] version of welcome home
Hii!! Thank you!! And of course! I am not bilingual myself (I sucked at French class in middle & high school…) and English is my first language so.. this is probably gonna be pretty short >>"
Warnings: none! (I think)
Note: it is undecided as to what language reader would speak as I don’t know any other languages other than English… so it can be up for interpretation!
Reader that doesn’t speak/knows very little English!
-When you ended up in the Neighbourhood, it was… A transition for sure! Nothing was in your native language and sometimes the neighbours… Bless their hearts but they didn’t really help sometimes! Things were rather confusing for a very long while.
-they did speak your language most likely! They probably had multiple translations outside of the show that transferred over to them themselves. Whether it be French, Spanish, mandarin, Arabic, ect! They most likely know it.
- if they don’t?.. well it’s certainly time for them to learn!!
-even if they do know the language, sometimes they forget to switch up when talking to you. Leaving you confused at the beginning, you do ask for them to repeat themselves when they do slip up!
-I think Howdy would like to hear what jokes you have, especially if he hasn’t heard them before! He’s heard so many jokes in English, he’d be curious as to what people find amusing in different countries! The more jokes the merrier in his opinion! And if you’re missing something from home like a specific drink or food? He’ll be sure to have it ordered so you can have it anytime of the week!
-and if you so chose, Frank would happily help you learn English! While they may not be an expert in linguistics and such, but they are quite pleased to teach, even if it can be frustrating at times (like with teaching anything) and distractions are abundant with the other neighbours…(Barnaby.)
-I think Julie would like to hear what kind of games you had and played as a child, she wonders what kind of spin she can put on them! Sometimes she speaks so fast though… in any language that she speaks, sometimes it’s hard to keep up…
Unfortunately, that’s all I can come up with at the moment… XP
Hiii ( ◜‿◝ )♡ I love your writing, fills my heart right up! Can I request dating headcanons for Howdy? Like general things that ur relationship would be like thank you and happy Valentine's! 💜
Of course!! I’m glad you like my writing, it’s fun to write when I have free time! I’ve been so done with burnout, but I have been in the writing mood!! And thank you! Happy Valentine’s Day to you as well!! (Howdy is totally not my second favourite..)
Tw: none! Just sweet, sweet fluff!!
Notes: hmmm…none!
Sweet love bug!
- When you two started dating, it was a bit of a challenge to get used to for Howdy, given his routine! Wake up, have breakfast, get ready for the day, open shop, spend all day there (of course eating lunch for 30 minutes at 12 pm sharp!), close the shop at sun down, get ready for bed have dinner and go to bed! He was a bit hesitant to change up that routine…but!! He’s okay to change it for you!
- Hugs are very common place for affection! Just physical touch in general honestly, holding hands, pats on the back, interlocking pinkies, ect! His antenna is wiggle when you give him kisses! He feels flustered when you do.
- Nicknames are common from him too, he has to pick the perfect one! "Hon" was common till he started adding his own spin to it, like "honey cakes"! He also likes the sound of different plant based nicknames like blossom, buttercup, strawberry, petal, ect! Too many to choose… More than he can count on all 16 fingers! (he only has four fingers on each hand..)
- Speaking of picking something perfect, Valentine’s Day! (Or as they call it Mailentimes day…) he likes picking out the perfect gifts! He’s a gift giver, don’t ya know? I would like to think he wants to go all out. Chocolates, flowers, toys… But he doesn’t know what to pick for you, he wants to be extra special!!!
- And of course, his family… he really wants their approval of you, because if your golden in their eyes? He’d certainly want to get hitched! Specifically his mother and father… He loves them to bits and would love their approval! I think they definitely would!! I think he’d chat nonstop to them over the phone about you before properly Meeting you!! And once they do? I think they’d be thrilled for him to finally have a partner!!
- And I think he is 100% very cosy to sleep with… Like sleeping with a giant stuffed animal that is also very warm and soft. I don’t know what kind of bed he has but for the sake of simplicity, he has a BIG BOY BED!! And so cuddles are the best, you can just bury your face into his fur and sleep forever, I think he snores a little in his sleep though…
- I think if you’d also just like… Helped around the shop unprompted (with permission previously, of course!) AND you did it the way he liked?? PLEASE MARRY HIM!!- but for real, I think itd make him very happy!! if he had a heart, it would be beating in his chest so fast!!
- I think he would laugh extra hard at jokes you told, even if they aren’t very funny… whether they are terrible puns or a little bit on the edgier side, anything that comes out of your mouth is perfect, flicking a tear out of his eye and everything!
I saw your post on the welcome home headcanons tag and was immediately hooked!! Your fics and very are written and amazing and I'd love to see you write some more
Could you write reader being somewhat intimidated/scared of the larger puppets? (Howdy/Barns/Poppy) I hope this doesn't come off as anything weird! I've just been scared of ondel-ondels when I was younger and it's been much funnier that I've now loved these characters that I'd be scared of if I met them irl
Yesssss, I love this so much. And thank you so much! I love writing headcanons for these silly little goobs…
Tw: none!
Note: I added home to as they are technically also a puppet! Just a prop puppet rather than a regular puppet!…also, I am so sorry for the lack of posts. I’ve been dealing with a lot of writers block and burnout..sigh!!
What an inconvenient fear!
It was..inconvenient when you entered this world and you met the bigger puppets, they were all friendly and excited to meet you! You were just… Put off by how tall they were!..you had vague memories of mascots from school or maybe it was a theme park of some kind… Regardless, you remember being plagued with uncontrollable fear and bawling on the spot.
No, you weren’t gonna do that here, fortunately you were an adult person who was able to (for the most part..) control your emotion!
That doesn’t stop the fear from plaguing you unfortunately.
Home (& Wally! As a treat!)
Home was the first to notice your fear, it confused them a little bit… And saddened her quite a lot. They didn’t understand why you were so scared of them! How you’d jump when they speak (slam doors???). How you avoided their gaze when… trying to speak to them. They weren’t scary! You two rarely interacted because of your fear.
Though sometimes they did find it a little funny when you jump. Maybe that was him just being mischievous? Wally noticed last out of everyone in the neighbourhood. It confused him even more.
"Why do you think home and some of the other scare you?" He’d asked.
"Oh uh.. it’s not that they scare me. It’s just…" you trailed off, how are you supposed to explain the fear? Wally didn’t really seem to fear much… he didn’t even seem to understand horror movies.
"… it’s just something from when I was little I guess?" You vaguely replied… he didn’t get it really.
Barnaby
"What? you afraid of a little guy?? I ain’t that scary pal" he’d say jokingly.
He was a little confused at first, like most of them. He didn’t get how you could be so scared of him, the only time you should be scared is during 'terror & treats'! But hey, he’s not one to judge on who’s scared of what!…
It doesn’t bother him per se, but it’s more… Kerfuffling. Baffling even! He did suggest trying some 'exposure therapy' by randomly appearing and spooking you but.. Frank didn’t think it was a good idea.
He walks on his hands and feet like he does with Wally around you, maybe if he wasn’t so big…you wouldn’t be so scared?
It seemed to work mostly!.. you were less jumpy at least
Howdy
He thinks it’s a joke at first, he would notice you need help with something when you’re in the store you need to come up and you’d jump! But then you started doing it… Every time, the joke was getting a little old, no?
You had fumbled over your explanation, making him think you were scared of him for a second! And that certainly wouldn’t do, how could he be your friend or sell you any goods if you were scared of him?? it almost made him wanna cry!… But good thing you were able to clear up what you meant.
He didn’t exactly know how to deal with that… sure, he was a scaredy bug sometimes, but that didn’t stop him! Maybe he could find something that could cure this fear!…
But that was its own adventure…
Poppy
… well this was a bit of a shock for her! Both of you would jump when you’d interact with one another, she noticed that you never really made eye contact with her. She was worried she did something wrong at first! Did you not like her?… oh she didn’t even want to think about that if it was the case.
But thankfully it was not, she was the most understanding out of everyone, she feared many things. Sometimes her own shadow scared her sometimes! She was… The safest big puppet to be around? You were able to at least semi relax around her, she was like a big bird, like an ostrich!… Was that not what she was based off of?…
You were thankful for her baked goods, she would make some special kinds on the occasion to relieve your anxiety… you didn’t partake in them too much, but you appreciated the thought!

Please be mindful of the tags. As this story delves into very uncomfortable topics, if you are not in the right headspace, please do not read it!!
The topics in the story are not ones I would write for ANY x reader story as they are heavy as they are VERY uncomfortable and I think I’d be disrespectful to add the specific topics into an 'X reader' story.
SO, DO NOT ASK FOR THEM.
read at your own risk! ->> warning below!!

Could I request a human reader Welcome Home headcanon, please?
Random headcanons w/ Eddie as a human!
Note: meant to be romantic! ^^
- You and Eddie occasionally do each other‘s make up for Funzie, even though he’s clumsy, Eddie has a surprisingly steady hand when it comes to make up! Your face is so much different than his, he likes that!
- Eddie will try and make time to take care of you if you’re sick, even if it is a little gross … But he’s always there to help! but he will try and go to work if he is sick, you don’t let him do that now that you’re there-
- Eddie is very curious as to where you came from, but won’t ask because he doesn’t wanna seem intrusive!
- Please take Eddie out for breaks and dates, he would very much appreciate it! Especially if he seems stressed! Just taking him out on a nice date to relax makes him feel so loved!
- I would like to think his main love language is giftgiving and words of affirmation mixed with physical affection and acts of service. (A lot of em!) on both giving and receiving!
- He’d probably get really flustered if you’d give em a little peck on the cheek or something like that while he’s working! Going something like "h-hey!- now you quit that, I’m working…" or "oh, you!.."! Your lips are so soft to him, incredibly warm too!
- He’s happy to do any sort of chores with you! Cleaning? He’s already grabbing a broom! dishes? He’s already putting on gloves! Cooking? He’s already got that covered! He loves helping, especially you though! He’s surprised with how much you can do in one day! Isn’t it exhausting?
- I think he would also like matching costumes for Halloween, handcrafted too! Something just for the two of you to do!
- I think he’d be all struck by your strength! You’re so much stronger than him!! And you can easily carry him no problem!
- I think he would also like how warm you are, you have your own little internal heater! It’s nice to snuggle with after a long day of work!
- The first time he heard your heartbeat, it startled him, but after a while, he got used to it. It was such a soothing sound to listen to! Your body makes all sorts of sounds, but the sound of your heart beating is his favourite.
- Please don’t tell him any facts about your body, you’ll scare the poor fella-
(Additional note: I mostly did this because I wanted to write something for Eddie, so it’s Eddie headcanons mixed with human ones, please be more specific next time! I… Kind of struggled writing this lol/nm)
Another additional note: the body is ambiguous, it can be up to interpretation! (Ron, Julie, Julie‘s voice actor… Etc.)
You were leaving Howdy store with a bag in your hands, you had just needed to get a few things for the house, groceries. Milk, eggs… Etc!
Everything has been really strange lately, Julie hasn’t been talking to anybody, it just feels like everything else is off. Even home is act awry.
They all acted like everything was fine, but you could tell that something was deeply disturbing veryone, no matter how much they refused to speak on it, especially Frank, you could just tell that something was wrong.
You decided to go talk to them, they are your friend after all. Right?
You walked up to their house and knocked on their door, there was no answer so you knocked again… You hesitated for a moment, then you went into the backyard and peaked over their fence, and there they were! Looking… Into their potting shed? This late? It was almost the neighbor’s curfew.
You quietly put your bag down and hopped to the fence, landing on the grass with a soft thud, that made them flinch and their head whipping around to look at you. "Wah- what are you doing here?!" They snapped as they closed the door, they didn’t sound angry. They sounded… Scared? You flinched in surprise, they had never spoken to you that way before.
"I uh.. I just wanted to check in on…"
That’s when the smell hit you, it was an awful. Pungent, gut wrenching smell, something you were familiar with. The smell of rot. You blinked and stared at them. They stared back.
You both knew what was in that shed, you walked over.
"Neighbour, please—" they reached over to grab you, but you walked past them easily and looked in.
And there it was, the crumpled brown bag, very obviously shaped into a person. The smell was pungent, it looked like it was leaking out of the bag, rotting. You stepped back and covered your mouth.
You dry heave and gagged. Your breathing got ragged, and you leaned against the shed, unable to look away from it. That’s when Frank shut the door quickly and looked up at you with intense eyes.
You finally were able to break your gaze from it and look down at them. You felt like you were going to cry, your eyes were already watering. ".. you weren’t supposed to see that…" they said quietly, their eyes wide with fear, if they had a heart, it would be beating so fast. Fear filled them completely.
they felt so angry at themselves and at you!
How could they get so careless? Why did you have to be there? Why couldn’t you just listen to them?! Why did you have to be so curious!? So many whys and—
… what if you told somebody?
You turned away and emptied your stomach, making them wince at the sound. It was disgusting, they had never seen you so… Scared and disturbed before.
"What the fuck is that?!" You said.
They didn’t answer. They were trying to keep their head from spinning, turning away from you.
You stared at them before grabbing their shoulders and making them look at you. "Frank." You said.
They looked at you finally, and they didn’t answer still.
You looked back at them, glancing over to the potting shed once more, then back to them. That was obviously a body! A thousand thoughts were going through your head, frank’s head wasn’t doing much better as it spun with how many thoughts were rushing through their head.
"..I can’t…tell you." Was all that Frank said.
You tried probing for more detail, but they remained a shut and locked book. "…do they others know?"
"No…" they said.
There was a beat of uncomfortable silence. Your heart racing through your chest. "..are you going to tell anyone?"
…
..
.
"No."
"Thank you."
And it was never talked about again.
(Final note: sorry if this is bad, running on sickness)

The more you spend time in the neighborhood, the more different you feel…
Tw: body horror(?) & angst!
Note: a silly little what if scenario for human Reader/neighbour!
When you first got here, you didn’t understand the world around you,
Being thrown into the past while simultaneously going into a different world. They were stuck in the same year of 1974, over and over again, but it wasn’t a time loop, the year just was always 1974.
Slowly, you felt like you could understand what this all meant. Things actually started to become fun for you rather than childish, you participated in Julie‘s games more often, you spent time with each neighbour accordingly! It made you feel happy, it made you feel good about yourself, you felt like you were a part of the neighbourhood. Rather than just someone that was there in the neighbourhood.
And that’s when the changes started.
Sometimes you’d wake up feeling softer, your skin changing in texture to be similar to felt. You didn’t notice the changes at first, they were slow and steady.
You could stare for longer, your natural strength started to dissipate, your sense of hearing dimmed. You couldn’t see things out of the corner of your eye. You and Julie could do all sorts of fun tricks together without hurting yourself, swearing slowly but surely left your vocabulary. Your hair felt like thick yarn sometimes.
You tried to brush off these little things, you still had a heart beat, you still bled, you were still human..right?
Then you woke up missing a pinky or two. You started to freak out, I mean, how could you not? You were missing parts of your fingers! You cried, and cried, and cried, and cried, "this was a nightmare" you thought. "this couldn’t really be happening" you prayed.
Your skin felt softer and squishier, like you didn’t have bones, but somehow you were still standing…still moving. It terrified you as to what you were becoming, your mouth felt different, your teeth felt like they were about to fall out at any given moment, your tongue felt heavy in your mouth.
You didn’t want to bother the others, I mean, how would you tell them? You probably terrified them already, you’d freak them out even more!..
But of course they noticed, you didn’t seem to be in any pain despite how… You looked.
They didn’t even know how to bring it up, you look like a monster of some kind! You frightened poor Poppy.. you frightened all of them truly.
Frank brought it up to you after a long while, you confessed your fears about what was happening to you, while they weren’t the best at comforting people. They tried their best to make you feel ok, you tried to feel better, but you just couldn’t shake the feeling of something terribly wrong going on and not being able to do anything about it, when it became dark, too dark to see. You went home that night. Slipping into bed after putting your pyjamas on and pulling the covers up to your chin and laying down, you felt like you were sitting there for hours. doing absolutely nothing.
You felt like you were sinking, deep into sleep, it was like tar pulling you under, filling your lungs, throat, and head. No matter how hard you tried to move, you were just pulled down even faster, everything disappeared the moment you closed your eyes
When you woke up, your heart didn’t beat. Your mind didn’t feel fuzzy, you didn’t even remember why you had been so stressed these past days, what are you doing? You need to go greet the neighbours!
It was like you were always there. Right were you belonged. :)
Note: Reader/neighbour is gender neutral but implied afab
(This could be read as platonic or romantic!)
They were.. a little confused upon meeting this tiny new neighbour, they didn’t speak normally, they simply… Babbled! None of them even knew where this little thing came from, so all of them had questions!
"Where did they.. come from?" Frank asked, looking at the tiny thing in your arms
"Uh..well, it’s.." you trailed off, eager eyes were on you. Before you could speak, a few poured in some ideas.
"well clearly, they came from an egg! And they just hatched!" Howdy said confidently. Reaching down and gently tapping the baby’s nose, causing it to scrunch up and coo softly.
"Hm..nah, I think they were left in a basket at the neighbours door, like I was with my ma" Barnaby said, Julie shook her head at this nonsense. "no way José!" She said, she was pressed up right against your side, looking down at the little thing in your arms. "Who’s josé?-" Barnaby chuckled, Julie waved him off. "this little cutie patootie was clearly born from a flower!…I don’t know why the flowers didn’t tell me we were getting a new neighbour!…" she declared, mumbling off slightly before turning her gaze to you.
Everyone was gently pushed back by Eddie, bless his soul.
"now everybody, let’s not crowd em, they look exhausted and.." he glanced over at you, he didn’t wanna be rude, but you knew you looked awful. "…frankly, unwell, we should be given em space! Mkay?" he finished. The neighbours all looked at each other before nodding their heads, giving you more space. Eddie turned to look at you, you looked downright dreadful, you looked like you hadn’t slept and your hair was a mess, which was so unlike you. His concern for you was beyond anything, but he didn’t know what to say or what to do.

Poppy was constantly worrying about both of you. Her feathers nearly falling out if it wasn’t for your reassurance that you were both ok, every small, unfamiliar noise that came from the infant was met with nervousness.She watched how you were so gentle with the baby, you didn’t explain much, but from what you have said, the baby was more fragile than glass! Which made her so nervous… She couldn’t help but fuss over every little thing. She was so nervous yet so excited when you allowed her to hold the baby, you had her sit down on the grass outside her barn, your arms, gently supporting her wings as she gently held the tiny little thing. If she had a heart, it would be soaring with how excited yet terrified she was. Those big round eyes staring up at her with such trust, it made her feel so good.
Howdy eagerly took a chance to expand his inventory for baby products! Baby clothes, bibs, bottles, rattles, a baby carrier, a stroller, Binky’s/pacifiers, formula and such! He didn’t mind the little stinker, it reminded him fondly of the simpler times with his nephews, whenever you came in, he happily greeted you both! He may or may not shamelessly take your baby for decoration- just put them in a little bowl (of course that’s properly baby proofed!) with a fitted costume for his next sale! A little pumpkin for 'terror n treats' and an adorable little ornament for home warming! What can he say? Cuteness sells goods! His goods at least! He has a few nicknames for the babe. "Greenie", "lil bug", "Spotty" and that’s just to name a few!
Julie is… A little disappointed that the baby can’t play her games yet, but that doesn’t mean she can’t make up new games that the little one can play! such as 'be a Rollie pollie!' and 'the cuteness competition!!' OR 'who can babble the best!'. She absolutely loves playing with your baby, you always have to remind her to be careful, however. It makes you a bit nervous every time she plays with them, but you know she’ll be careful. You know she wouldn’t want to hurt your baby! She also talks to the flowers with your baby, insisting to hear their opinions on them. Getting distressed when the baby put a flower in its mouth, she gently chastised the baby when that happened. "You silly little thing!! You’re not supposed to try and eat them! That was very rude!!" You gently had to remind her that the baby didn’t understand.
Barnaby was happy to try and show the baby tricks. He was rather pleased with himself when the baby finally figured out 'roll over' and 'sit'. He started walking on his all fours when the baby figured out how to crawl and he would follow them, playing a game of 'follow the leader.' he would gently tease them occasionally here or there, pretending to be miffed about not being the "littlest pooch anymore' but he promised it was all in good faith! When they would start throwing a tantrum, he would… Bark at them- what was he supposed to do? He thought they were just making some noise! Apparently that wasn’t the case…He would nap with them as well, he was a great napping spot he figured, plopping them up on his tummy as he watched them sleep, you would join in as well occasionally and it would be one big cuddle pile.
Frank didn’t know what to feel upon this new arrival, they asked a ton of questions, of course! What they could and couldn’t eat, making a schedule as well! Making everything 'just so'. They would observe a ton as well, helping where they could as well. They never realized how… Fragile humans could be, you were the first and only human they had ever met, they didn’t know what they expected for infancy of a human. They were deeply patient with the baby, knowing the baby didn’t understand well… Anything. They did speak to the baby as if it was an adult, saying it would 'improve their speech abilities' much faster than 'baby talk'. You thought it was funny. While they couldn’t carry the baby on their own (being as the baby is too heavy for their plush body), they happily would sit on their couch and read to them, they were sure they had a few children’s books on hand to read to them.
Eddie found them downright precious! Being a bit of the opposite of Frank and occasionally cooing to them. Playfully letting them wear his hat and being a 'junior mailman'. He liked spending time with them too when he wasn’t busy, playing a quick game of peekaboo or settling them down for a nap when you was tired, he didn’t realize how much work it took to be a parent! He did worry about you quite a bit, always willing to lend a hand so you could take a quick break. He would check in on you first on his mail route! Always making sure you knew that there was someone there for you, would you appreciate in quite a bit. He would talk to Frank a bit about you and the baby, he didn’t like some of the facts that Frank told him… Like how the baby didn’t have kneecaps yet- he didn’t know what they meant by yet…you had to explain that one-
Sally… she eagerly took in this new apprentice of the arts, babbling was now Shakespeare! Messes were masterpieces! You cannot convince her otherwise. She happily talks to the baby to "bounce ideas" for her next play. She also loves to make the costumes for the little one, you can’t leave them out! She loved thinking of ways to fit them into her plays! A sleepy little flower, a little lamb, a mouse, anything she can think of!! of course you’ll have to help with the baby and keeping them still enough so she can make the costumes with their measurements!.. maybe don’t let her watch the baby one on one for too long- you’re not sure if she will know what to do with a crying baby
And last, but certainly not least Wally darling! He certainly didn’t know what to think or what to do with this new tiny neighbour, staring at them was a common thing, they had big round eyes like him, he would talk to them as well. He didn’t understand the babbling that they made nor did he understand that they didn’t understand him. He liked holding them as well, sitting down on his chair and holding the little thing in his arms, they were so warm! Painting was another thing he liked doing with them, it was sure messy with them, but it was fun. Splatters of different colours mixing together. It was beautiful he likes to think.
And when it’s nap time? He is happy to help. Home brings down the shades, puts on a lullaby on the record and he quietly tells them a story as they fall asleep.
(sorry for this being so late, maybe it’s not the best but I am currently very sick and my tablet which I usually use to write killed itself on me-)
