(DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT ALL FAMILIAR WITH THE LORE OF DANDY'S WORLD, SOME OF THE THINGS IN THIS STORY ARE MY INFERENCES/WHAT I'VE HEARD!) *ART BY ME!* Shortly after Gardenview's closing, the toons within are left to fend for themselves within the abandoned facility. As the ichor spreads and infects, their new goal is to survive. A famous game-host finds this monotonous, torturing even. Fortunately for her, there's someone to help her through it. [Note]: There will be gore, blood, and other things of that nature in this story! I put a warning at the beginning of the chapters that contain it however, thank you for reading!

A human soul wakes up trapped inside Shrimpo, Gardenview's meanest little toon, and tries to survive by wearing his anger like armor. But the more they share one body, the more their emotions bleed together: Shrimpo accidentally learns how to feel, and you learn what it's like to want to live. Now they're stuck in a messy, chaotic, almost-relationship, where pranks turn into panic attacks, comfort turns into conflict, and one misunderstanding can shatter everything. In a town built on smiles, scripts, and censorship, you and Shrimpo have to decide what they are to each other... before Gardenview's future twists them both into monsters.

This story is based off a completely random hypothetical I had at 2am while playing Dandys world. How would a toon react to a child with autism? This is my personal head cannon of how I think that scenario would play out. This is a Gigi story cause yes This story takes place before Gardenview Shutdown so characters may act different compared to their in game counterparts.
