"Get outta the GODDAMN FRIDGE!"
Riffraff looked up, not a single thought visable in his bright green eyes. Rory was sure if they could read the cats thoughts, all they'd hear is elevator music. Not even good elevator music, crappy elevator music.
Despite his obvious lack of a brain, Riffraff recognised the sound of a packet being rustled. Even though the contents weren't edible, that being nails, it was enough to get the cat out of the fridge and back onto the kitchen side.
Rory shook their head, rolling their eyes at the cats antics before going to get what they originally came for."Are you fuckin' kidding me."
No groceries.
Not one.
Not a single slice of cheese.
Not anymore at least, Rory could see the smallest bit of yellow on Riffraff's chin."Alright Raff, hop up." Rory said, patting their shoulder as the usual signal. And, as usual, Riffraff wasted no time hopping onto their shoulder with a yowl.
As a precaution, Rory clipped the lead onto the cats collar and then on their bag but they knew it wasn't neccessary.See, despite having the intelligence of a rusty spoon, Riffraff was a service animal, specifically trained to retrieve medication in the case of an emergency and DPT if necessary. He proudly displayed his service animal vest whenever the pair went out and had been doing his job for three years.
With the cat secured, Rory wandered outside with their keys in hand, hopping in the small blue car and driving off.
The drive itself was fine, Riffraff poking his head out the window or yowling along to the music. Eventually they arrived at the local Walmart and every single time it amazed Rory. Having grown up in England, the closest they knew was Big Tesco and fuck did they miss the meal deals.The pair made quick work of shopping, grabbing enough food to fill the fridge whilst Riffraff occasionally jumped down and yowled at something Rory forgot to pick up, or things he just wanted. Usually things he just wanted. Rory's pretty sure the one time the cat signalled something they actually needed was a coincidence. Eventually they made their way to the front of the store and paid, stopping just by the door when a poster caught their eye.

Even during the ride home all they could think about was that damn pizzaplex. What even was a pizzaplex?? Rory hadn't even heard of the fazbear name before, there not being a chain in England, so as soon as they got in they pulled out their phone to look up the buisness.
And they found..not much. Barely anything actually, a few announcements about the pizzaplex and the occasional conspiracy theory about some older location, something about some dead kids and a guy called Vincent? At least, thats who they suspected it was. Almost every single thing about the restaurants before the pizzaplex appeared to be wiped from the internet, but the pizzaplex had more than enough advertisements with some information but overall, it was bare. They were left still wondering.
Eventually, when they were tired of the constant nagging, they collapsed onto the sofa and pulled out their phone.
"Hello? This is the Mega Pizzaplex, how may I help you on this Fazzerific day?"
"Oh- Hiya, I wanted to ask about the job opportunity? The mechanic?"
There was silence on the other end of the line before the faint sound of scribbling.
"Can you get here tomorrow for an interview?"
"Oh! Yeah I can be there!"
"Perfect, be here at 2pm. Good luck."

Rory put down the phone with a smile, "Well that was easy! Aye, Riff."
"Riff?"
"Goddamit HOW DO YOU EVEN OPEN THE FRIDGE??"
