When you walked into work today, you didn't expect to see a 7-foot tall white tiger and a 5-foot tall meerkat animatronic in suits talking or for a better term, flirting with Daisy. You walked over to the main stage where the 3 were and cleared your throat loudly, grabbing their attention. The three whipped their heads around to look at you, the meerkat flustered, the tiger showing a suave smile and Daisy blushing a storm. 

You got your first good look at the newcomers, and it probably wouldn't be your last. Both were classily dressed, both in suits. The tiger was in a deepish purple suit with a lighter purple dress shirt on underneath. His dress shirt had been unbuttoned until about halfway down his chest, making the markings on his chest exposed. He had black dress shoes that matched the stripes that littered his skin. His eyes, however, were an icy blue, a stark contrast to the rest of his outfit. He also wore a golden chain around his neck, it glistening in the light. 'It must be made of the same stuff Hook's jewellery is made of.' He also had a long white tail that just reached the floor hanging behind him. His friend, the meerkat, wasn't much different outfit wise. He had a light, purplish-blue suit on with a charcoal coloured dress shirt. His shirt, however, was buttoned up fully and had a lovely pink tie to tie it all together.

"Why helloooo sweetheart!"

The tiger took your hand as he kneeled down, kissing the back of your hand.

"What a catch you are! Say, darling, what's your name?"

You hesitated slightly from his loud presentation taking you off guard. It wasn't until you heard Daisy laughing that you snapped back to reality. 

"(Y/N). And you two?"

The tiger smiled brightly as he stood straight once more. At 7 feet tall, he was definitely towering over you. His meerkat friend, however, was just reaching the halfway point of his chest at a mere 5 feet.

"I'm Romeo Darling and that's Marvin. My... adopted little brother. He doesn't talk much."

Marvin crossed his arms as he leaned against the stage, Daisy being the only one actually sitting on it.

"It's nice to meet you two. Now if I may, what are you guys doing here? I thought I met everyone yesterday."

Romeo let out a hearty chuckle as he adjusted his purple suit jacket, his piercing blue eyes staring into your soul.

"We're the guys in the back that look after all the bills, sweet cheeks! Who else do you think is managing your paycheck? Jamie? That slob can't do shit when it comes to money and that's why Mr Cawthon lent you cuties our assistance!"

Before you could say anything, you heard something being dropped onto the tiled floor. You turn behind you to look at what fell to see Toby picking his drumsticks off the floor with his pupils shaped like hearts, aimed directly at Romeo. He stuttered softly as he scurried to your side, almost clinging onto you like a small child as he partially hid himself behind your body.

"H-Hi! I'm. Toby. I see you've m-met (Y/N and Daisy-"

Romeo chuckled while Marvin just looked at the terrior. Daisy pushed herself off the stage and landed on the floor with a soft thump. She walked towards Toby and grabbed his arm, pulling him backstage with her.

"We'll leave you three to get acquainted! Also, don't forget to introduce Lilac!"

Before you could question anything, the two of them had already gone out of sight. Marvin tapped his brother's arm and Romeo crouched down to his level. Marvin whispered something to Romeo which caused him to nod and then stand up again.

"Marvin wants to go back to the finance room out back so I'll go introduce you to Lilac. She's...she's special."

"special?"

As you questioned his word usage Marvin started to walk off. Romeo took you hand and led you to a room in the back of the building, next to the repair wing. It had been labelled as 'Security'. Was this Lilac some sort of guard...? As he led you to the back, you spaced out, trying to imagine what she would look like. Was she a human or another animatronic? If she was animatronic, what kind of animal was she?

The two of you eventually reached a room with a picture of a single lilac on it. Romeo knocked a small tune onto the door which you faintly recognised from one of the shows yesterday. A feminine voice calls out that they're coming and soon enough you are greeted to a lion animatronic.

"Lilac, sweetness, I want to introduce you to someone."

She smiles sweetly as she tugs you into a hug. 

"Oh, you must be (Y/N)! It's a pleasure to finally meet you!"

Lilac was beautiful. Absolutely stunning. She had the same colour fur as any typical African Lion but she had the most beautiful lavender coloured eyes that sparkled. She had a large, curly mane and broad shoulders, which you considered odd at first. Maybe there was an error in the design department? Apart from that, she was flawless. She wore a lilac and pink coloured polo shirt that had small vines embodied into the sleeves. On the contrast, however, she had a pair of black boots and pants. She had lilac nail polish on her left hand and on her right she had green nail polish that had been messily painted and chipped, her thumb the only neat one.

You hugged her back until the two of you pulled away. She saw your questioning face and chuckled.

"You're probably wondering about my mane, right?"

~<3~

One long explanation and a lovingly made hot chocolate from Lilac later, you had been told about why she had a mane. She was transgender. She started as a male lion who was going to symbolise strength and security since she's the head of the security department but after a while, she didn't feel right. She felt out of place as a male. After some talking with Jamie and the engineering department, they had changed her appearance but kept her mane since she couldn't bear to part with it.

You couldn't help but smile at her story. It was almost as if these animatronics you worked with were human. Each one had different personality traits and characteristics that made them shine. You truly were lucky to know Jamie who had breathed these characters into life.

~<3~ *Timeskip to after work

Like yesterday, work went smoothly. There weren't any major hiccups apart from a child that tried to climb on stage during a show Hook was doing... yeah that was a terrifying experience. Apart from that, however, the day was fine. When the restaurant closed, Hook tried to talk to you again but Jamie had shoved you out of the building before you could even say anything more than 'goodnight' to the large fox. Jamie seemed pretty angry as well... Little did you know, that wouldn't be the last odd experience you would encounter in Daisy's.


Foreshadowing. Delicious. Also, I know this chapter is a little crummy compared to past ones. I've been in the middle of a writer's block for this story but I wanted to try and get something out for you guys, especially since I couldn't wait to introduce you all to Romeo, Marvin and Lilac. I hope you guys can forgive me for the quality of this one. The next chapter, however, will be much more interesting and will have much better writing. Can't wait to see you guys in the next chapter!
