Peaceful 'Workday'

 Both of the animatronics tried their best to keep the silence at bay as they walked to the gift shop area.

 "This is usually where all of the drama happens" Moon declared, his arms out as if he was showing off the place to a newcomer.

 "How often does this 'drama' happen?" Monty asked.

 The daycare attendant chuckled, "Do you really want to know?"

 "Yeah, why would I ask if I didn't?" The reptile tapped a wall of glass lightly with his tail to scare one of the staff bots inside. His attempt was successful, making a Mop-Bot fall onto its back and squirm around like a turtle stuck on its shell. 

 Moon entered the shop, helping it back up as he replied with, "Almost daily."

 "So a lot of Karen's around here, huh?" 

 "You bet!"

 They used one of the escalators to make their way down to the first floor. 

"So... I saw one of your biggest fans today." Moon told him.

 "Oh really?" A smirk already appeared on his face, already having an idea of who the kid was, "How was he?"

 "A whole crowd of kids were following him as he showed off his new shades," Moon replied, "I must say, he was really good at acting like you. He can be your back up one day!"

 The gator scoffed, "Like he can play the bass."

 "If he learns how to play one I'm going to laugh so hard." 

  They both laughed at the thought as they got to the first floor, checking all of the shops. One of the workers was caught sleeping under one of the counters, but that was about it. It was actually peaceful for once. After a while of checking the remaining places that they can think of, the two sat down on one of the benches in boredom. Monty laid in Moons lap, not thinking much of it. He began to fiddle with the bell that hung from Moon's long hat.

 "So we're just going to sit here all night?" Monty asked.

 A tint of pink brushed over Moon's face, but he didn't acknowledge it, "Well, we don't have to, I just didn't know what to do. We can do whatever you want, really."

 "Is that right?" Monty asked as a grin spread across his face.

 "Well...yeah!" He replied, beginning to struggle with keeping eye contact. 

 "You look cute when your flustered, you know that?"

 "Shut up.."

 Monty sat up, satisfied with what he had done to Moon, who was now starting to overheat. 

 "You wanna play golf?" The gator asked.

 "Well, I said we can do whatever you want." Moon answered, looking down at the ground. 

 Monty forced his lover to look at him. His pupils were now dancing hearts, and his smile was somewhat faltered. Moon tried to make some more space between them, only to be pulled back into the reptiles embrace.

 "Man, you are really not used to this kind of attention, are you?"

 Moon shook his head slightly, trying desperately to tug him off. It was really starting to get uncomfortable to him.

 "Well, you'll have to get used to it."

 The glamrock jumped to give him a short peck on the cheek, and as he landed back on the ground he laughed at the sight of the ruffles around Moon's neck beginning to spin. 

 Moon looked down, surprised that his partner would do such a thing. He couldn't stay mad for long due to the overwhelming thoughts in his head as he watched Monty's tail swish in a slow momentum, like a cat sneaking up upon his prey. Anger was quickly replaced with embarrassment and wonder.

 This guy is literally like a cat! He thought to himself, What if I-

 "Earth to Moon!?"

  He managed to snap back into reality as Monty waved a hand in front of his face.

 "You alright?"

 "Yeah... just zoned out for a minute."

 Monty looked concerned for Moon, but didn't mention much else, hoping that golf would make them both calm down a bit. Monty enjoyed playing golf on his free time every once in a while, so it was no surprise that he would love to do it with his partner. Moon had seen glimpses of him playing by himself before they met in the storage room, but never really cared to watch. 

 They had made it to Monty's Gator Golf by the time Moon began to talk again. Perfect time too, because it made it easier for Monty to ensure he understood the rules of the game. [If you don't understand then google it or something because I don't want to bore anyone who already knows with them lol.] It took a while to get Moon to fully understand what golf was all about, but when he did he wasn't that bad. He never managed to get a hole in one, but was always close to getting it. After his first shot it would always end of at least a foot or two away. He ended up winning of course, making Monty surprised. 

 "Maybe you should be my backup." Monty told him jokingly.

 Moon laughed, "I'm made to make children fall asleep, I don't think that would be a good idea."

 "Well, most of the kids that watch our shows are older," The gator explained, "so you should be fine. It's much harder to make them calm down."

 "I bet!"

 "So, you wanna play another game?"

 "I would love to, but I cant have my brother waiting to long."

 Monty nodded in understanding, following the daycare attendant out of the golf area, "Well, maybe tomorrow? I bet Vanessa will still be dying in her bed so..."

 "If 'drama' doesn't happen tomorrow, then sure!"

 The two shook on it before going their separate ways. Moon went for the Daycare as Monty went for one of the nearby charging stations. On the way to the charging station, Monty ran into someone. That someone was Freddy.

 "Oh, hello Monty!" He greeted, "Did you-?"

 Monty nodded, putting a finger over his mouth to silence him. His voice was loud, even when he was trying to be quiet, "Why are you here?"

 "Just needed to charge," He replied, "You?"

 "Same."

 The two sighed before continuing the small conversation they were having.

 "Well, you can use this charging station," Freddy told him, "I'll find another one." 

 Monty couldn't resist the offer with how low his battery was. He made sure to thank him before telling him where one might be. His knowledge on the place wasn't the best, but he couldn't have Freddy dead in the middle of nowhere either. He didn't want to scare the kids. Freddy thanked him as he ran off, allowing Monty to think a bit more as he entered the charging station. 

  How will I tell the others? Has Moon told anyone yet? 

  He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath before he went into sleep mode. 

 I guess I'll know soon enough :/
