The Social Security Administration canceled contracts that allowed Maine parents to sign up newborns for Social Security numbers at the hosp
For decades, new parents across the United States have been able to check a box on hospital forms in order to request Social Security numbers for their newborns.
That’s no longer the case in Maine, where parents will have to visit a Social Security field office thanks to a shocking move by President Donald Trump’s administration.
A spokesperson for the Maine Department of Health and Human Services told HuffPost on Thursday that the Social Security Administration said it had canceled two contracts with Maine’s vital statistics program that support Social Security’s electronic “enumeration at birth” program.
“As a result of SSA’s contract termination, effective immediately, Maine hospitals are no longer able to enroll newborns into Social Security at the time of birth so parents will now need to visit their local Social Security office to apply in-person for their child’s Social Security Number,” the Maine DHHS spokesperson said in an email.
No justification has been given for the change, which was first reported by the Portland Press Herald. The Social Security Administration and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment from HuffPost.
It’s likely the contracts were canceled at the direction of Elon Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” service, which has ripped through the federal government in search of savings. Leeland Dudek, the acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration, recently told senior agency staff this week they had to let DOGE run amok.
“DOGE people are learning and they will make mistakes, but we have to let them see what is going on at SSA,” Dudek told the group, according to notes of the meeting obtained by The Washington Post. “I am relying on longtime career people to inform my work, but I am receiving decisions that are made without my input. I have to effectuate those decisions.”
Dudek previously announced the SSA would undergo a “massive” reorganization with significant job cuts. Martin O’Malley, who led the agency under former President Joe Biden, told HuffPost this week the cuts to the agency could cause it to miss benefit payments to millions of people at some point; more than 50 million seniors rely on Social Security’s retirement insurance program.
The Social Security Administration rolled out enumeration at birth in the late 1980s, allowing parents only to check a box on state birth forms at the hospital to get their newborn a Social Security number. The program has been available in all 50 states since 1997, and 99% of people now get their Social Security numbers that way, according to the Social Security Administration.
Parents typically need Social Security numbers for their children in order to obtain medical coverage, open a bank account or obtain government services. A pamphlet on the Social Security Administration’s website explains the simple process.
“When you complete the application for your baby’s birth certificate, you will be asked whether you want to apply for an SSN for your baby,” the pamphlet says. “If you say ‘yes,’ you will be asked to provide both parents’ SSNs. If you don’t know both parents’ SSNs, you still can apply for your child’s SSN.”
Since taking office in January, Trump has empowered Musk, the world’s richest man, to try to slash federal bureaucracies and fire workers. Musk’s team has targeted government contracts that Musk has described as wasteful.
It’s not clear if Musk’s young DOGE deputies thought the SSA contracts with Maine’s government were wasteful, or if they were canceled by accident. Musk has admitted making mistakes; the DOGE website has repeatedly posted incorrect information about money saved from canceled contracts.
The DOGE “wall of receipts” says it canceled six “enumeration at birth contracts” between the Social Security administration and five states, plus the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. territory in the Pacific Ocean. Maine does not appear to be on the list, however.
The DOGE website suggests Musk’s team has been trying to cancel the contracts partially ― only to the extent they result in the collection of race and ethnicity information, which DOGE considers an example of “DEI,” or diversity, equity and inclusion. The form reflecting the termination of an enumeration contract in Arizona, for instance, says, “Partial termination of the Race and Ethnicity (RE) records requirement.” The DOGE site says, “Only the DEI values are included” in the dollar amount saved.
Trump has also feuded with Maine’s governor for refusing to play along with Trump’s directive to disallow transgender athletes in girls’ sports.
Maine Gov. Janet Mills, a Democrat, told Trump she would “see you in court” over the girls’ sports directive during a recent meeting between governors and the president in Washington, D.C. Trump then threatened to withhold all federal funding from Maine.
Reality: Burns through benefits for worthless degree
Outcome: No benefits left for legitimate education
Single Mothers:
Targeting: “Study from home! Flexible schedules!”
Reality: Online programs with no real support
Outcome: Debt + childcare + no career advancement
Workers in Declining Industries:
Targeting: “Retrain for the new economy!”
Reality: Programs for jobs that don’t exist
Outcome: Old job gone, new skills worthless, massive debt
THE SCHOOL-TO-DEBT PIPELINE:
🏗️ HOW IT WORKS:
Economic desperation drives people to seek education
Predatory schools target the most vulnerable
Government aid flows to worst schools
Students accumulate debt faster than education
Worthless credentials leave them worse off
Debt follows them forever thanks to bankruptcy protection
Cycle repeats with next generation
THE ACCREDITATION SCAM:
🏛️ REAL ACCREDITATION:
Regional accreditors: Recognized by employers/other schools
Standards: Rigorous academic and financial oversight
Transfers: Credits accepted at legitimate institutions
🎪 FAKE ACCREDITATION:
National accreditors: Often industry-captured
Standards: Minimal oversight, profit-focused
Transfers: Credits rejected by legitimate schools
Purpose: Qualify for federal financial aid
BOTTOM LINE:
School choice isn’t really choice when the system is designed to funnel different classes into different debt traps. Rich kids get elite education debt-free, everyone else gets varying degrees of exploitation.

One of the gaps in grief work is understanding how to process ambiguous loss. Ambiguous loss exists on a spectrum, and it comes from the loss of someone either physically or mentally, but not to death. It may be losing a loved one to imprisonment or deployment, losing custody of a child, or having a loved one go missing. Traditional mourning rituals such as funerals, cemeteries, and church services allow for public mourning, but none of those are available to someone who is mourning an ambiguous loss.
There is a social stigma attached to ambiguous loss, and the loss can be measured on a scale of the following six factors:
the loss is minimized or ignored;
one’s feelings about the loss are either repressed by oneself or criticized by others;
there is little to no support for the grief;
a lack of opportunity to mourn;
others react poorly to what mourning does happen; and
there is a stigma attached to the loss or the grief.
Family members and loved ones of those who are missing may fit into any or multiple of those categories.
In order to best support those dealing with ambiguous loss, connecting them to people who are supporting and understanding is key. When that comes to a missing person, it may involve rituals around the place where the person was last seen or places where they lived or frequented. There are also days and anniversaries that come where the person may feel helplessness, a push to look for the person, or a drive to talk about them. Keeping a loved one's memory alive on social media or in the public eye may help those suffering with ambiguous loss. In other cases, it may bring people additional stress and make it difficult to move forward. Only the individual or family can make that distinction for themselves.
There will be some level of continual mourning until there is closure; for some, the closure may never come, in the case of a person being missing, a lifetime incarceration, or the loss of custody of a child. The suggestion of some slim chance, such as the person being recovered or a chance at parole many years in the future, may be enough to help someone hold on. It can also block the healing process for many who hold onto some small hope. Paralysis in life can be damaging if the loved one is unable to work or socialize due to the ambiguous loss.
Healing can come when individuals hold dual concepts of their loved one being present in some aspects and gone in others. With missing persons, that can be holding onto hope that the person will be recovered—even found alive—but also accepting that the person is not present and life must move on around the loss. It can help to create a new sense of identity around the self and loved one.
Many people choose to find meaning in this ambiguous loss, and that is a key to healing for those people. Advocates in many spaces are utilizing their grief as power and motivation. Ultimately, social workers and providers need to normalize this kind of loss to better help those suffering.
Grief counseling certificates and programs are not universal. Anyone building one of these programs should include coursework or sections on ambiguous loss/grief and the unique struggles that come along with not having answers or presence. Grief counselors should also advertise their services to those suffering from an ambiguous loss; many sufferers may not realize there are similarities or like-minds.

these resources are US centric. i don't know enough about overseas support, and this list is mostly complied from experienced hardship.
also, bc these are from my personal experiences, they pivot around my states of longterm residency. i've tried my best to provide general resources and use unspecific enough terminology. if you need help navigating resources (eligibility, applications, etc) in your state, my DMs are open and i would be happy to help.
eternal WIP. i am sure i've forgotten something. rbs are welcomed n appreciated. questions/corrections/etc should go in my DMs.
department of human services / department of social and health services | applicable to: low-income
housing (most applicable for eviction-notice crisis, NOT homeless or housed situations. there are still programs for unprovided/unsafe shelter emergencies, but they vary wildly. please DM me for more info.)
food (food stamps which bring a wide variety of benefits on their own, meal plans, etc)
cash (washington residents: if you qualify for SSI* you can receive cash assistance. other states: whether or not it is provided in your state, and the qualifier i.e needy families/food assistance, varies. please DM me for more info, whether or not you are a resident of washington.)
medical (public insurance, as well as other services i.e delivered meds, caregiving. please DM me for more caregiver-specific info.)
transportation (gas vouchers, necessary/medical transportation, discount on bus fare)
education: see etc below, as the most beneficial support will come from social workers.
child support: see etc below, as most beneficial support will come from social workers.
cellular (lifeline/ACP, a federal program in which you can acquire a fully paid smartphone or discount on wifi. you can transfer the wifi benefit to another internet provider)
etc: social workers are in-house, who can provide many services i.e housing situation, mental health support, job opportunities, applying for SSI, pretty much anything. if they cannot help you, they should transfer you to another worker who can, or provide you with another resource. through my social worker is how i got my housing paid.
if you are on medicaid and/or food stamps, those benefits open a wide door to other benefits - this is how you qualify for lifeline/ACP, discounted amazon prime, etc.
*disability. to receive disability YOU CANNOT BE EMPLOYED FULLTIME. what follows is, almost always, automatic rejection. part-time is still susceptible to automatic rejection. do not turn to a lawyer for help; ask a social worker for help with the specifics of your situation.
however, even if you are employed full/part-time, it is still beneficial to apply for SSI as this provides an earlier 'date of onset,' and is extremely helpful for a potential future claim. this is true in all states, AFAIK.
job corps | applicable to: low-income, 16-24 (24 maximum, unless in extraordinary circumstances)
food (3 meals a day, everyday, and vending machines)
medical (wellness center, staffed with nurses and doctor(s) - can provide medication and therapy)
transportation (drivers' license, will give rides to workplaces*)
education (GED, alternative HS diploma, training and certifications)
child support: dependent on center, alternative boarding for mothers* and their children
cellular: dependent on center, free 24/7 wifi is provided.
etc: there are significant drawbacks to job corps, which are very dependent on center-to-center.
as it is federal property, no drugs or alcohol usage is permitted on campus. when arriving and returning to JC, campus security will administer a breathalyzer test. it is a 'ZT'/zero tolerance - you will be expelled if drug/alcohol usage is discovered.
there's also a 'cash stipend,' but i don't know the exact amount or the frequency. when i went to JC ('17-'18) it was $20 biweekly, increased to $30 after ~12-16 months of enrollment. i was told that it has increased to $50, still biweekly.
there is A Social Worker Lite upon graduation. they will check up with you, and for a time, will support you in finding stability. this includes housing and education.
*IME, you cannot have a job and then enroll to job corps. but if you are employed while in job corps, they will provide transport.
**IME, fathers/second parent/partners, cannot board with the mother or children. at my JC, the alternative boarding was only applicable to the biological parents - but in couples, the bio father would be boarded in the men's section.
community college / open admission colleges
near-universal acceptance rate, and some provide boarding. my CC provided holiday housing, including summertime. some CCs provide medication and therapy. there are opt-in meal plans, which are a part of your tuition.
however, if you are under the age of 25 and applying for financial aid, you will need to have your parents' relevant tax records. even in extraordinary circumstances such as estrangement, the separation needs to be in legal documents and may be rejected anyway. and in the event that you are financially independent, some colleges will still require your parents' taxes.
food stamps and public insurance/medicaid
as mentioned before, these two are such qualifiers for OTHER benefits, they get their own separate piece.
generally speaking, when filling an application for one resource on your state's website, there's an option to apply for others. TANF, medical caregiving, etc… save time and tick that option. if you're worried about 'fucking up' your application, see if your department has a social worker.
EBT discounts amazon prime, and your EBT card can be used in orders with EBT-eligible items. there's also a splinter called 'amazon fresh,' but that's only provided in some areas.
if you receive EBT and/or medicaid, you qualify for lifeline/ACP. lifeline/ACP is a federal program, nationwide.
sometimes other resources, i.e housing, transportation, and child support, can be locked behind receiving EBT and/or medicaid. wildly varies on state, situation, and the resource in question.
what medicaid covers… wildly varies on your state and situation.
however, if you are need of an assistive device or treatment (a brace, cane, wheelchair, shower chair, physical therapy, medically necessary transportation, medical marijuana) ask your PCP for a prescription or referral. every time. avoid using money on what your PCP can provide - and these prescriptions are highly useful documents in SSI applications.
your states' medicaid should cover most of these services - and talk to your routed insurance in the case of a denial.
i'm aware this section is bulky and difficult to parse; please DM me if you need help understanding. this is a complex topic.
rent assistance
your local salvation army may pay for up to three months of rent. you can only ask for this assistance once a year.
as aforementioned, your local housing authority / DSHS/DHS also can provide rent assistance. your state probably has its own program(s), which have different requirements, i.e income or age.
section 8/public housing | low-income, legally disabled/recipient of SSI
the application for section 8 is so daunting, i didn't do it independently. i had my social worker help me. i would heavily advise you do the same.
section 8 housing is basically a waitlist for discounted/free housing, whether it be apartments or full houses. it is... extremely complicated.
my advice is to apply for section 8, well before any significant financial changes. if your income goes up, you will have to reapply. i would suggest, if you are applying for SSI, to do both of these applications at the same time. there is a slim, but still possible, chance that you will get public housing before SSI.
emergency housing/unsheltered
some hotels/motels will offer temporary room, moreso if social worker requests it. you can google and find out what hotels/motels near you offer these services, and ask your social worker to contact them. your social worker may even provide transportation to the hotel/motel.
i am Professional Enough that i was able to acquire a room for two strangers. (a small misunderstanding, as i was mistaken for a social worker. i rectified this mistake as soon as i realized - do not pretend to be a social worker. they will ask 'what company you're with,' and your name and contact information. lying is a very good way to get blacklisted.) this is an outlier, but if you're well-versed enough, you could do this yourself.
get in contact with your local housing authority (what its called here) AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. there is a massive waitlist for unsheltered people; it is easier and faster to acquire shelter when you're still in the eviction/about to be kicked out bubble. whether or not they can help you is usually, IME, more dependent on your age than your income. work fast, keep steady contact.
domestic violence
in certain states, survivors of DV can have their voter registration removed from public access. this 2020 PDF lists the eligibility for each state. AFAIK, when applying for your voter registration, this is not a mandated question. you will have ask the relevant programs for your address to be private.
most applications for food stamps/insurance/housing/etc will ask if you are a survivor of DV. this has an increase of your cases' 'priority,' especially for housing. this applies to both fleeing and survivor situations.
contact your local charities and/or relevant local nonprofit organizations. while there are online sites (i.e freegeek for electronics) these are very hit-and-miss. your local charities are more likely to have stock. several nonprofits offer vouchers for off-site laundry units, and sometimes for children hygiene products.
furniture and other household appliances tend to ship directly to your home. for clothes and household necessities, you'll probably have to go to the office for pick-up. IME, clothes can be picked up any time at community closets, while i've had to schedule appointments to pick up bleach, tissues, etc.
hygiene products are high-demand, low-supply. diapers are the 'worst offender' for low stock.
animal support
online grants for vet payment/assistance either are very specific, or have very long waitlists. most of the time, these grants apply to service animal canines (not emotional support, nor felines, or other animals) and/or serious conditions that already have a diagnoses - they won't pay for preliminary visits, bloodwork, etc.
if your animal needs to be fixed, there are coupons for the procedure. you will have to se what vet accepts that specific coupon or not.
for food, i would recommend, if you are financially able, to have a chewy subscription. this saves a lot of money in the long run - amazon's subscribe & save is an alternative, but not as cost-effective for high-quality food, IMO.
your local charities/nonprofits may provide animal food.

oh, hey there! i love so many of your clone wars fics and i’ve followed you for a while. but - and bear with me, i might sound weird - i didn’t know you were a teacher? secondary school, is… i’m not american but it’s between junior and high school, i think?
as a sixteen year old who is thinking of doing a history degree, then that one one year course thing that equips you to teach, and then hoping to become a high school history/english teacher - do you have any advice, things you wish you’d known before going into teaching, or anything like that?
i think i’d love teaching - the only thing keeping me up at night is that i won’t be able to find a job because there are many teachers, that i won’t have any free time because i know the hours are long, and that i won’t be able to support myself financially/put any potential kids through schooling/save up enough money for basic expenses, due to stuff like the inflation rate and teachers being infamously not paid well— do you have any experience or advice regarding any or all of those things, if it wouldn’t be any trouble to share?
please feel free to ignore this - i know that adults are busy in general, but also, congrats on adopting your kid, i hope that y’all are doing great! - i just wanted to ask because i honestly don’t know any of my teachers well enough to ask them any of this, and my family isn’t exactly supportive of me wanting me to be a teacher (they…. don’t think i’ll be paid anything, but i don’t think that’s completely true!), so i just thought i’d ask. again though, no worries abt answering<3
okay whoa! just found this, but i'm going to attempt to answer now! truly don't know how i missed it. this may get a bit lengthy, so i'll put a cut.
first, thank you for your kind words! our bonus daughter is doing great. life looks drastically different now than it did a few months ago, but i can't imagine it any other way. <3
okay so -- yes! secondary school in america is generally 7-12th grade. i'm certified for all of those levels, but presently teach grade 8. which depending where you are living could be different for you. here, it's 13/14-year-olds.
i did things a bit unconventionally, but i honestly recommend it, now having the perspective of peers who did it 'the right way.' i studied something unrelated to education for my undergraduate (4-year degree). then, i did an alternative certificate program to get my certification. this means i graduated university in may 2020 and had my first classroom in august 2020. it was a bit much at once, but it worked well for my personality, because i'm a sink or swim person.
most of my co-workers studied education in undergrad, meaning they completed rotations of student teaching and spent four full years learning all of the things to know about teaching. which is a viable route!!! in my opinion, though, much of what is taught is not super applicable in a real life 2023 classroom so i'd just as well have all of that mandatory" material condensed into a one year online program i can zoom through while getting real experience. the big things to know about teaching is that you'll never know it all. in my opinion, there is no amount of training that will adequately prepare you because every child is different and every teacher is different. the only was to find your stride is to do it. you'll fail a little, for sure! but what better lesson to teach your students?
to address finding a job: i'm not sure where you're located and if this affects anything, but here in america i can tell you it is verrrry easy to find teaching jobs. there is such a shortage in education because so many veteran teachers who have been sticking it out for years have finally had enough and left the profession. i work at an incredible school with a ton of support, but we had three teachers leave us this year specifically to go into data analytics because they can work from home and have a more flexible schedule. of course, getting experience with children is valuable for your resume! but at least in the united states right now, the standard is sort of 'hey if you're certified and don't have a criminal record, we'll hire you!" which is...not great for education as a whole. but great for prospective teachers...i guess?
now for the money: hmm. so first off, let me say that teachers deserve to be paid more, without a shadow of a doubt. i think we all know this so i'll save the soapbox. but THAT BEING SAID. at least in my region, i make a livable wage. do i deserve more for the amount of work i am actually doing? yes! am i struggling financially? no. of course, there are other things to take into consideration such as the cost of living in your area. but to encourage you (and your parents possibly?): i am fully supporting my family right now on a salary. my husband just graduated from law school, so as soon as he passes his bar and gets a job (fingers crossed), things will change a little. but as of now, i am able to comfortably support myself, him, a toddler, and a teenager. i am a saver and don't waste money! but i have also not gotten to a point of misery or anywhere close.
however, it needs to be said, only you know your propensity for saving vs. spending. i have many friends who DO financially struggle because they live a different lifestyle than me. and that's okay! but it's a give and take. you have to decide what is the most important to YOU and go from there. for me, it's supporting my family and prioritising family experiences over things. for many, it's a nicer house or food or entertainment or whatever. and none of those things are bad!
in conclusion: teachers (at least in my area) are paid a livable amount. but it is absolutely not the amount they should be living on, in proportion to the work they do. remember: we are not paid for summer. many districts will spreadout paychecks to include the summer...but that's the money from the school year. NOT more money. i have mandatory trainings and symposiums i have to attend this summer and i'm not being paid for them. i spend hundreds of dollars on supplies/decorations/snack for students and i'm not being paid for them. i stay at the school until almost 7pm every night to watch my students' games and concerts and i'm not being paid for them. i could say no to many of these things! but i won't because i'm a good teacher who knows these things are *necessary.* it's a hard reality, though.
help out a first nations two spirit person go to school (and eat)!
remaking this post again bc unfortunately the other one lost traction
hi! i’m phoenix. a first nations two spirit person from canada! currently i’m on welfare and looking to start a family support worker certificate program starting february 1st!!
unfortunately, i am in extreme financial need due to limited funds and after buying myself some food and paying bills, i need help paying for both groceries for the rest of the month, and along with the money needed for record checks i’m going to need to start my schooling.
on top of all this, there is a chance i’ll be cut off welfare once i start school, but that’s a risk i’m willing to take so that i can have a job in my dream field and self-sufficient by 2022 working with first nations organizations.
if you can spare anything, or even just a reblog, it would be super helpful! thank you for reading this, and may we both have a wonderful 2021 💕
Moon and sun x reader where the reader is a daycare attendant/ personal engineer. The main plot would be the conflict of the pair potentially being separated from each other Sun makes a big mistake. I’m thinking angst and hurt/comfort on all sides.
Chica x Female reader (yeah I can’t see this girl in a heterosexual relationship, she gives off bimbo bi energy but she leans toward the gayer side of the bi spectrum) this reader is a waitress/ concessions worker. She’s only here to pay off some aspects of college (yes this is a college aged reader). She is textbook smart. Very soft spoken. Knows when to stand up for herself but is often overshadowed because of how quiet she is. She gets hit on by male coworkers, customers, and Monty sometimes. Chica always comes to her aid when she needs it tho. One day someone assaults the reader, giving her a black eye, making Chica go ham before comforting the reader. From there a friendship then romance blooms.
Freddy x Non-binary reader where the reader is in late teens/early 20s. I’m thinking they’re growing out of their scene phase and coming into their own. Lots of uncertainty of who they are. Freddy takes it upon himself to act as a form of support for them since it’s apart of their programming. But programming morphs into something more over time.
Monty x gender neutral reader (Because Montys appeal is larger than his temper) where the reader is too tired to deal with Monty’s shit all the time. The reader is the eldest of 6 siblings. Knowing their place in their house they go to a trade school for engineering and get a job that pays them the best as soon as they get their certification. That job being Montgomery Gators on hand engineer. They do some research, realize when their putting up against and take this gator by the jaws to ge that pay check. This reader comes with a TW for suicidal idealization in their past and struggling with depression, anxiety tied with their worth, and lingering suicidal thoughts. Lots of hurt/comfort potential here yall. To balance out the engagement I’m thinking coworkers as comedy relief along with a sarcasm/spite based relationship with Monty.
Character x character
Roxy x Chica FOR THE GAYSSSS!!! Ima be honest my mind is saying Roxy and Chica learn about pride month (separately) and slowly come to terms with their genders then sexualities. Like one of them see a lesbian couple for the first time and try to comprehend what that is and if they don’t understand they ask. Through interactions like that one they understand and internalize and process all the while hanging out with each other and other members of the band. They may bring it up to each other but I personally silent realizations in story’s (personal preference tho you do you). This is a great way to share headcanons and diversify so do what you want to these ladies lol. I honestly see Chica as a Cisgendered Bisexual while Roxanne is either a He/him Lesbian or a Bisexual mess. Is all up to you but I do recommend for the relationship itself to be fluffy as hell. Slow burn this shit.
Vanny/Vanessa x male reader (because straight men) this had a lot of joke fic potential as well as a serious romance. Both options must feed off of the “I can fix them!” Mindset tho. The reader finds out that Vanessa is Vanny and is doing everything in their power to protect the kids and patrons of the pizzaplex. This can go alot of ways but for the serious route I’m thinking the reader legit corners Vanessa after finding out the therapy shit she’s been through and it’s piecing together that maybe someone is black mailing her into this rather than her being literally controlled. The Who altercation would be “you can stay at my place if you’re not safe, I can set you up with my therapist, we can go to the police.” And her just being overwhelmed at the kindness this guy is extending her, knowing that by associating with her he is in danger. Someone give me this shit!!
Freddy x Monty after hours at Freddy Fazbears PizzaPlex are mostly boring but after Bonnie’s decommissioning, Freddy grew more reserved. Missing warmups, then shows altogether, not talking to guests or the other animatronics (only to staff when need be), he’s not charging himself as often as he should, everyone’s worried. The animatronics overheard the staff bots taking about the staff pondering the idea of replacing Freddy all together. With nothing left to do and chica and Roxane already trying to get Freddy back in here, Monty is convinced to step up and talk to Freddy. The rest is up to you :) there is potential to intermix Bonnie x Freddy content along with Monty x Freddy content you never know.
Moon and sun x Monty look- okay! Just let me be happy with a my depresso expresso and sunshine cookie! Anyways- sun has never been outside the daycare, only moon has for patrols. Up until now, Sun’s always though that he was limited to the daycare via his programming. However, this is proven wrong when his daycare assistant (oc or reader insert) looks/ alters his programming while trying to fix a sudden lockup of one of his joints. With this information acquired, sun gains the courage to wonder the pizza plex at night, much to moon’s worry/dismay. After bumping to many a security bots/ mop bots he wonders around the “dressing rooms” seeing Monty fuming after “another day of being ignored”. Sunny takes it upon himself to cheer him up, and.. the rest is up to you.
