Save the Factory (Poppy Playtime Reader Insert)

March 21, 1991

You were walking down one of the many hallways of Playtime Co. Looking down at a few different letters you'd received from other workers at the company asking if certain areas could be examined. Such as areas around the Game Station, with reports of the rafters being unstable, and several areas in the walls and ceiling reported of begining to show cracks.

It was all a lot for you to handle so you considered clocking out early to sleep on the topics in your received letters, when you walked past the Head of Innovations, Leith Pierre's office, and heard some kind of conversation going on in between the man himself, and a rather new employee at the office. A man you'd met on a few different occasions who hailed from Ireland, you didn't know his last name so you just called him by his first, Marcus.

"... and that's when I see it. A mop handle lodged under the innovation wing gate." Marcus spoke with his commonly heard accent. And then you heard Leith speak, "So what'd ya do Marcus?" "Well I just thought I'd nab the bloody oak and be on me merry way..." "... And?" "Well, I'm reachin' for the thing. And the mop handle jolts on its own! Had me scared stiff. I-I thought I was the only one there. So... I took a peek beneath the gate... and some massive bloody thing was dotering about the bloody hallway!"

You were confused as you'd never seen anything similar to what Marcus describe, other then one of the Companies more recent toys; PJ Pugapiller. But there was no possible way for a toy to be living in real life, right? That thought plagued your mind as you went to clock out early, but on your way out, you ran into another person who worked at Playtime, a Mr. Rowan Stoll. Who appeared to be observing the giant version of the company's recent poster boy, Huggy Wuggy. "Evening Rowan." You said as the man lightly jumped before taking a deep breath and replying. "Oh... hoo boy... you need to stop sneaking up on everyone like that, how do you not make any noise when you walk up to someone!?"

"Honestly I feel I walk with the same level of noise as everyone else... but why are you eyeing Huggy like that?" You replied as you looked up to the fuzzy blue monster. "Oh, yeah. I've been keeping a close eye on him and I swear, when only children are around, his head lightly moves and he just starts at the kids. Almost as if his eyes have nanny cams hidden in them... I don't know if there's any meaning to it but I plan on speaking to Mr. Pierre about it." He said as he slicked back his hair and sighed. "Well good luck with that then. I'm headed home early. See you tomorrow!" You called from the entrance as you put your card back into its slot counting the time you clocked out. You heard Rowan make noises of utter confusion as you left the factory for the day. Still thinking about what he had said and what you heard Marcus talking about.

"Eh... it's probably nothing." You said as you hopped into your car and started the engine, driving home for the day.
