For the next two days moxxie and Millie were actually getting used to their new accommodations. They found it a bit rough at first since they were now action figures but they learned to adapt. Buzz and woody were able to teach them the three key rules when being a toy

1. Whenever a human is in the same room or location, you must remain still

*if toys revealed themselves in front of people, it would cause mass psychological and mental disasters to their owners. And only those who believe in the toys magic like their manufactures believe they were alive, but not children because they were too young to understand toys being more than inanimate objects

*if Toys are forced to animate in front of humans, they must be able to make it difficult for the witnesses to be believed

* A human can be tricked into believing that you still are acting like a toy if you do mechanical or electronic functions, like rephrasing a prerecorded dialog. Some toys can move if they are programmed to move automatically

* Toys can animate themselves if humans are too far away or cannot clearly see the toys

* If a human has their back turned, the toys can make subtle movements, but must try to stay in place and must return to being still when being looked at

* Animals are allowed to see the toys animated since they cannot communicate with humans

* Toys cannot talk to a human directly

* Toys can use human objects when the humans are not using them as long as it looks like it was never used

* Toys can make a mess, damage objects, or even break the law if humans cannot find evidence that the toys did it

2. Try to return to the last place you were last time

*A toy must make it look like it wasn't moved after the humans temporarily leave.

*An exception is if the toy cannot physically return to this spot or reach it

* A toy that is shelved or put away for long periods of time can move out of the place when alone, but must always return and stay even if it's for several years

* Toys in "mint condition" and "never removed from their box" can still break out of their box, but it is expected for them to stay in the box

* Toys are allowed to repair or clean themselves if humans don't notice the change or come to the conclusion that someone else cleaned or repaired them

3. Toys cannot leave their owners

*the main existence of a toy is to help children grow as toys were designed as a way to help their minds grow

* If a toy believes that they are forgotten or abandoned, they could leave since their owner won't care or remember them

* If a toy knows they are abandoned they will not try to return to their owner despite the heartbreak.

*If a toy is stolen, they normally would try to return back home despite their new ownership.

Moxxie and Millie understood how important it was for being toys and accepted each rule to the last. And when it came to being played with by Andy, they never could have imagined how special they felt to him. The way he played with them, they were more than just objects, they were like family in his heart. Which was how many of the toys must feel with their owner. But it didn't matter now much they were played with, the matter was being there for Andy when they were needed.

Buzz and woody may not have gotten mush spotlight. But they knew that they were still special in Andy's heart, even with moxxie and Millie in their places.
