Roxy was slowly becoming accustomed to the random visits from the human staff. Specifically a certain technician. Nathan Green, a lively 19-year-old, who liked to gossip with her.

Jay visited sometimes, but really only to ask her about something she preferred in one of her stories. She was a shut-in, Roxy honestly had no idea how Monty befriended her.

Nia came by often enough. She usually dragged Dan along. Or Charlotte. Or another Animatronic. She had just managed to befriend basically everyone but the human staff.

Mr. Smith came by a lot more than he used to, but he was still usually in his office. He was still kind and liked to treat them all to things sometimes. They even had some funds to buy things they wanted for them!

Roxy still spent plenty of time with her fellow animatronics. Particularly Foxy and Fiona. They were her siblings, after all! And they were incredibly fun to be around.

She and Chica spent a lot of time together, too. Roxy felt oddly happy and safe around the chicken, and just warm in general.

Bonnie was fun to hang out with. He liked to drag her into chaos, whether it be with or without Monty. Freddy joined them on some of their more tame outings. Sometimes it would be just them, and they would prank half the 'Plex without anyone managing to know who it was.

Emilia, one of the technicians in training, or was she a proper technician now? Anyways, she stopped by sometimes. Mostly with a question about hair or makeup. But sometimes she brought snacks and told Roxy about some of the workplace drama.

Ballora had talked to her once or twice, but not very much, now that she thought about it. The ballerina tended to stick to herself, but she noticed Fiona getting to know her recently so maybe she wasn't cutting them off purposefully. Maybe she was just socially awkward. Like Jay.

At any point, Roxy wasn't used to being alone anymore, she realized. It wasn't any big revelation or anything, she just happened to notice it as she sat on her couch, alone for the night for the first time in weeks. There were so many people in the 'Plex anymore, it just... didn't happen anymore.

She couldn't find herself to be mad about either thing. She enjoyed the company. She also didn't mind the alone time. So, she sat on her couch and did random things around her room. Browsed the internet. She just kind of... filled up her time with things she wanted to do.

It was weird to do something for her that didn't involve her primary function or Raceway persona. Even as she grew since the virus... It felt like, for the first time in a while, she was just Roxy.

It felt nice. She should be just Roxy more often.
