UNPROMPTED || ALWAYS ACCEPTING! || @fazeruined
fazeruined asked: "Daaaaaad." Cassie called at the front door. "Okay I know I shouldn't have left without saying anything and I'm sorry I took so long to come back BUT- I'm home now! And um, I brought a few friends over, if you don't mind."
Right behind her is a group that consists of: Blind ragged wolf, Freddy without his above-shoulder charm, legless rabbid gator, cheesy trash-enthusiast chicken, daycare twink, and at least 12 different miniature Music Men gremlins. [fazeruined to buster just bc i thought it was funny lmao]
*Oh yeah busted bonnie is also there
[Buster might have been distracted these past few days ( adjusting to his new job after the abrupt destruction of the Pizzaplex, setting up for Cassie's birthday party, etc. ), but he wasn't blind. When his daughter sneaked out that night, he noticed. Her behavior had been "off" all morning, and when he went to check in on her later, he found that she'd tried the same trick he did as a teen -- stuffing a doll into her bed, then climbing out of her window.]
[If he were the sort of helicopter parent that he despised, he would have launched a full-on search party...but he wasn't. He cared about his daughter ( obviously ), and he was worried sick enough to pull an all-nighter waiting for her, but he knew she'd be able to handle herself. Really, he'd be more worried if a full day had passed. That had been the tipping point back when he was younger, and even then, he was usually hiding out at a friend's house.]
[Finally, Buster heard a commotion from outside -- that had to be her. He stood up, relieved, livid, and concerned all the same, and opened the door.]
[The sight that assaulted his eyes was...overwhelming, to say the least. Cassie blurted out an excuse that he couldn't quite process -- he was too focused on all of the "friends" she'd brought home with her. Were these all of the animatronics that had been abandoned at the Pizzaplex? Among them, he recognized horribly mangled versions of the main four animatronics -- strange, he'd heard that Freddy had gone missing in the aftermath -- the daycare attendant, over a dozen miniature Music Men, and...Bonnie. How had she managed to find him?]
[Buster blinked, distraught; he'd assumed that he'd just be able to lecture her and give her a protective hug, and then everything would go back to normal. This, though -- this was a rejection of normalcy entirely.]
❝ Cassie -- ❞ [He started, then sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. How was he even supposed to respond to this??? Maybe he should address the part he was actually PREPARED for first.] ❝ Listen, I was your age once. I get it. But if anything's bugging you, I'd prefer for you to tell me instead of running off. As for these guys... ❞
[Oh, man. The more he looked over them all, the more he came to a gripping realization that they did not have room in their tiny home for any of them. There was no way that this was possible, but...this was for Cassie. Not only her, but the animatronics who'd apparently been active and left to rot in that old building. Curse his now-good-natured heart.]
❝ Ugh. We're gonna need a bigger house. ❞ [Hey, it wasn't a "no."]
