Night stood looking down at the other smaller animatronic, “a movie night?” the lunar animatronic thought it over, he hasn’t hung out with his replacement one on one in a bit.. It couldn’t hurt, and the shorter’s cute HOPEFUL EYES looking up at him were very to deny him.
“Soo? C'mon it be fun!" Lunar begged the other. “Pllleasse, c'mon everyone else is busy and I'm lonely and bored.” Lunar whined, being a tad annoying. “oh. That's why he wants to hang out.” Night stepped back a bit, but signed and nodded.
“Yes!” the eclipse model celebrated, with a hop. Night couldn’t help but smile at the shorter one. How did they always manage to make him smile?
Night jumped out of his skin when the smaller grabbed his hand, face flushing as the shorter animatronic dragged him across the pizzaplex from the arcade to the daycare lane, leading him to the lunar model’s room.

night signed as he sat on the couch in his friend’s? acquaintances? room; who was apparently “stealing the good snacks from chico while he's out.” Lunar shenanigans always amused the moon model, finding cute FUNNY how he always managed to get himself in a mess. He quietly and quickly set up the tv to some random streaming service.
Night laid there, waiting for the others, his gaze drifted down to the room around him, it was neat, which felt shocking to the moon model. Night never really saw the lunar as the neat kind, though the bean soup piled up in a corner wasn’t even surprising. The bot really liked it didn't they?
The room was a mix of pastels, mostly cold colors like purple or blue. The lunar model has a hammock hidden in the back of the pastel room, seemingly mostly unused compared to the purple couch. They also had a lot of glowing signs on the walls akin to the ones in the glamrocks rooms but lunar had shut them off, in fact he seemed to like to keep his room dim. Though the room was neat, shockingly so, the door to the back was chipped and rusty. Unappealing.
The roses that laid discarded on the desk piqued his interest, was the lunar model seeing someone? Who would bring him flowers? Night gripped the blanket under him anger bubbling up inside him. “Why does the thought of lunar dating upset me so much?” he questioned. “I don't care what they do, it's their life- it’s not like I like them or anything-”
Oh.
Night’s face flushed at the realization. HIM?? Why HIM!? Night stood up, starting to pace across the room. “Lunar? I barely know him! why do i feel this way- am I even ready to feel this way after- no no! Lunar!? Why lunar- I mean- he's cute, funny, interesting, with a really adorable smile, they're also really Enthusiastic but also charming while still being caring..” he bonked himself in the head at the thought “oh im in deep..” he thought, annoyed at himself.
They paced across the room, rubbing his temple “how could I fall for lunar?” they questioned with a groan. He couldn’t believe that he fell for his replacement!? Night signed and sat back down onto the purple couch. “Lunar? I mean he's cute but..” night looks away. “Could I love him like he needs?” he wonders.
A familiar pit in his stomach grows as he thinks about it more. “Would I be able to treat them well?” Night doubted that. “Not to mention that he might not even like boys!” night thought. Feeling anger at himself for even entertaining the idea that him and Lunar could work!
“It wouldn't- lunar doesn’t need more on his plate nor do i. A relationship would just complicate things more and neither of us needed that.” Night shook his head, trying to convince himself that it wouldn't work no matter if he wanted it or not!
Night let out a sign. “I don't even know if he’s gay or not.” He looks off out of the large window, it always made him feel like a caged animal in a zoo.
The door creaking open jolted night out of his thoughts. “Heyya big boy!” lunar called out, his hands full with a bag full of stolen snacks and a bowl of popcorn. His stupid grin plastered onto his dumbly cute face as he looked up at him. Lunar grin faltered when he saw what state night was in. “Was that worry?” night questioned.
“You okay?” lunar asked, sitting down next to the moon model. Night looked down at him and nodded his head. “Mm.. sure buddy.” he challenged. “You look like you just realized your life's a lie” Lunar teased the taller thought he sounded unsure if this was the right move. The moon model perked up, and scrabbled to find his notepad.
“Uh.. whatcha looking for?’ Lunar questioned, cocking his head to the side like a confused kitten. “Notepad?” he asked, earning a nod from the other. “Are you sick or something?” they worried. “Your face is like bright red? Can we even get sick?” they paused, thinking over the thought really hard. “God! He's dumb but so cute.” night thought before his face flushed again and he knocked his own head at the embarrassing thought.
Lunar let a laugh, night would usually find too loud or annoying but now it feels nice, sweet. “Oh- my god! You're so red!” he choked out between giggles. Earning himself a whack in the head from the taller. Lunar giggles slowed into snickers as he wiped tears from his eyes. “Sorry sorry sorry.” Lunar chuckled.
Night leaned back onto the couch and pulled the blanket over himself as lunar flopped down next to the taller one. “You're still red by the way.” he teased. Giggling until night pushed him over, letting a yelp out. The moon model grabbed the tv remote and started looking for a movie to watch.
Lunar decided on some shitty horror movie, something about a stalker and his victim. The plot was bad and the cgi was even worse. It looked like it was straight up made in two days, which it probably was, but at least the eclipse model was enjoying making fun of it.
Night jolted when the lunar model’s head hit his shoulder. Lunar seemed tired, but was forcing himself to stay up longer, like a child. The moon animatronic looked away from the other, trying to hide how his face flushed. ignoring the butterflies in his fake stomach but when lunar shifted around, trying to get comfortable, made it harder to ignore.
Lunar let out a tired yawn, but shook his head trying to stay awake. The mute one let out a sigh and slowly started stroking the other's head, like how an owner would a cat, trying to help the other fall asleep.
Lunar slowly drifted off as night pet him, an endearing sight for the taller. Night tired turned his attention back to the crappy movie playing in the background. Night ended up turning the movie off and falling asleep with the other
