Malice POV

Welcome back to the first day of your exciting- interesting career! Whether you were approached at a job fair, read our ad at Screws, Bolts, and Hairpins, or if this is the result of a dare, we welcome you. I will be your personal guide to help you get started. I’m a model 5 of the Handyman’s Robotics and Unit-Repair System, but you can call me Hand-Unit. Your new career promises challenge, intrigue and endless janitorial opportunities.

Please enter your name as seen above the keypad. This cannot be changed later so please be careful.

It seems that you had some trouble with the keypad. I see what you were trying to type, and I will auto-correct it for you. One moment. Welcome:

Teacup Nugget

You can now open the elevator using that bright, red and obvious button. Let’s get to work!

 ---

"... ninth year on the job ... Ugh ... remind me again why I even come back to this place." 

Allow me to fill this somewhat frightening silence with some light-hearted banter. Due to the massive success and even more-so the unfortunate closing of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, it was clear that the stage was set – no pun intended – for another contender in children’s entertainment. Unlike most entertainment venues, our robotic entertainers are rented out for private parties during the day, and it’s your job to get the robots back in proper working order before the following morning.

---

"I already know this bullshit, HandUnit! Just hurry up!" I groan. "AND SOMEBODY TELL ME WHY THEY MADE THE UNIFORM PURPLE!" I can't even remember what happened here. 

You are now in the Primary Control Module. It is actually a crawlspace between the two front showrooms. Now let's get started with your daily tasks. View the window to your left. This is the Ballora Gallery Party Room and Dance Studio, encouraging kids to get fit and enjoy pizza. Let’s turn on the light, and see if Ballora is on stage. Press the blue button on the elevated keypad to your left.

"... Mother really doesn't wanna do anything ... I would feel the same if I were her, but I'm stuck with an endoskeleton inside my body- Aerin, stop moving!"

Uh-oh! It looks like Riva doesn’t feel like dancing. Let’s give her some motivation. Press the red button now to administer a controlled shock. Maybe that will put the spring back in her step.

without much choice in the matter, I press the button.
---

Let’s check the light again.

---

Excellent! Riva is feeling like her old self again and will be ready to perform again tomorrow. Now, view the window to your right. This is the Funtime Auditorium, where Funtime Foxy encourages kids to play and share. Try the light! Let’s see what Funtime Foxy is up to.

---

Looks like Funtime Foxy is taking the day off. Let’s motivate Funtime Foxy with a controlled shock.

---

Let’s try another controlled shock.

---

Looks like Funtime Foxy is in perfect working order. Great job! In front of you is another vent shaft. Crawl through it to reach the Circus Gallery Control Module.

---

On the other side of the glass is Duchess Demon's Auditorium. Let’s check the light, and see what Duchess is up to.

---

Looks like a few of the lights are out, but we can fix that later. Let’s encourage Duchess to cheer up with a controlled shock.

---

Let’s try another controlled shock.

---

Let’s try another controlled shock.

---
Great job, Duchess Demon! We knew we could count on you! That concludes your duties for your first night on the job. We don’t want you to leave overwhelmed, otherwise you might not come back. Please leave using the vent behind you, and we’ll see you again tomorrow.
