#dolldrop lore

When Sun and Moon first realised that there was something wrong within their system, like a forceful third party that made them (both) do things they weren't originally programmed to. It all started with very minor things. At first, they thought it might have been the other A.I, slightly blaming each other for these unknown actions, like creeping out a child or laughing in wrong situations. And of course, they kept telling each other, "It wasn't me!"

The symptoms got more severe and Moon realised they might have a virus in their system. He told Sun to switch to safe mode and stay in safe mode every time he was in control of the body. (Both Sun and Moon had a normal mode, Sun had a Safe Mode and Moon a Security Mode, but Sun didn't have a Security Mode and vice versa-)

Confused why Moon would ask him to do that, Sun, however, listened to his counterpart because he trusted him. This caused Moon to absorb the whole Afton virus to himself, while Sun's system blocked the now corrupted Moon out of their shared headspace.

Both were obviously in a panic, not able to hear the other like they used to, or even see what the other was doing while not in control of the body.

Sun's panic turned into grief and then angriness, why would Moon block him out like that? The angriness was resolved quickly when they started writing notes for each other, but Sun could see that Moon's pretty handwriting was getting rougher and rougher over time, less and less words written on the notes.

Moon was getting more and more violent and unable to control himself fully when out, like he'd help Vanny to kidnap children from the slumber parties the Pizza Plex used to host for kids.

And Sun was so scared, every time Moon was out, he'd be pushed into the back of their head, into this darkness where he couldn't see or hear anything, and being a robot who loves the brightness, colours and happy sounds around him, he was less and less keen to let Moon come out.

Of course, Sun complained to the workers that there was something wrong with them, he couldn't hear Moon, and that Moon wasn't acting like himself. But yeah, they weren't really taken that great care of in the first place, so instead of fixing Moon, they just decided to scrap nap time altogether after various complaints and only keep Moon as extra security during the night.

Moon kept trying to explain himself to Sun with the written notes, his violence became evident to Sun as Moon hid broken S.T.A.F.F. -bots in their room that he had attacked during his nightly patrols. Moon also trashed their room, and Sun was too depressed to clean it up.

Then, one day, one of the kids turned the lights off by accident and a staff member ended up in a hospital, and the daycare was closed until further notice.

And after the virus was erased from Moon's system, and their ability to communicate was back, they actually became very close and needy of each other. The fear and experience of not being able to hear each other caused them to have severe separation anxiety.

When they first woke up in their doll bodies, they were panicking again, because the other one wasn't in their head anymore. But after they realised they were just in separate bodies and could now physically touch and hug each other, their relationship was closer than ever. :>
