You leave the house and take a taxi. Despite the headquarter being in the city, it is still quite far away from your home.

You step out of the cab, feeling marvelous. You enter the corporate headquarter and find yourself inside the waiting room.

"Good afternoon! How can I help you?"

You look to your right and spot a young man behind a counter.

His hair is dyed in light lilac and he has caribbean blue eyes hidden behind his small round light grey glasses. He's wearing a very pale purple shirt, which has a spanish crimson flower located in the top middle, with a berry patch and heartbreaker suit waistcoat, which shoulders are black.

" - Um, hello! I have an appointment with the CEO at 2 PM.

- May I know your name, please?

- [Y/n] [L/n].

-  [Y/n] [L/n]... [Y/n] [L/n]... Oh, here you are! Indeed, you have a meeting with Mr. Emily in a few minutes. Please take a seat and wait for him."

As demanded, you sit down and look at the secretary as you have nothing else to do. Sometimes he looks up at you but quickly looks down shyly. You smile a little at his reaction. A door opens, revealing a rather short man. He looks at you with cold eyes.

" - [Y/n] [L/n]?

- Yes.

- Follow me."

You stand up and walk behind him, entering his office.

"Close the door."

You do as ordered.

"Take a seat."

You sit down, facing him. He rests his elbows on his desk and the lower part of his face is hidden by his hands.

" - I learned that you apparently had something to offer me...

- Indeed. I would like to make a partnership."

He looks at you wide-eyed.

" - Excuse me?

- Yes, a partnership."

He stares at you with a dismissive gaze.

"Do you have any experience?"

You feel like you are being punched in the stomach. You've never thought it could be that difficult to be a co-owner.

"Not really, but I've just finished my studies!"

He replies with a loud chuckle.

"You clearly don't know what you are getting yourself into! It's always like that with young people..."

You feel offended by his comment but don't say anything.

" - Do you even know what the job of a co-owner is?

- Of course I do.

- Really? Go on, I'm all ears.

- A co-owner should be able to develop business plans, forecast revenue and expenses, participate in early marketing activities, build brand awareness, identify market opportunities, manage product development, direct marketing and promotion tasks, develop financial estimates, create business plans and documents, build and lead teams and help company scale up their market share value.

- Good job, you know your lesson. However, do you know what all of this actually means?

- As I've never had the chance to apply my knowledge on the ground, my answer is no.

- Do you know what the price you will have to pay to be a co-owner is?

- No, sir.

- You need to sacrifice everything: your family, your friends, sometimes you will even need to sleep on the spot.

- I understand what it takes.

- And still you'd like to be Fazbear Entertainment's co-owner?

- Yes, sir. To be honest, I've learned that you have been near bankruptcy lately. I would just like to give you a helping hand. I have a very influential friend who could make a huge publicity stunt for us. Moreover, having someone to help you do your tasks will make the work twice as efficient.

- You have valuable arguments, I can't deny that. Keep going.

- Additionally, whenever we receive taxes and fees, the price will be automatically split in half..."

He slowly nods.

" - ... which will give a chance to Fazbear Entertainment not to go bankrupt.

- Your line of reasoning is quite convincing... I think that's enough for now."

He stands up and opens the door.

"I will personally call you back if your offer truly interests me. Have a nice day, Mr./Mrs./Mx. [L/n]."

You go back home late in the evening. While having supper, you vaguely talk about your appointment with Mr. Emily.

" - How did it go?

- Pretty well. I will be called back if this has to get any further.

- Where do you want to work again?

- I will only tell you if I get the opportunity I'd like to have."

Once the supper is over, you head towards your bedroom, change and go to bed. The next day, in the morning, your phone rings. You quickly pick it up.

" - Hello?

- Good morning, Mr./Mrs./Mx. [L/n]. Henry Emily speaking.

- Oh, good morning, Mr. Emily.

- I've thought about your proposal since you came... I think we will make great things together...

- R-really?!

- Welcome to the Fazbear Entertainment's family, Mr./Mrs./Mx. [L/n]. I'll be waiting for you this afternoon.

- O-okay then! See you later!

- Goodbye, sir/miss/miks."
