**circus baby's, 2:19 am** *The camera pushes into the cramped maintenance closet, where Mike fills the space with oppressive silence. The air is thick with the scent of oil and dust, illuminated by the faint red glow of warning lights reflecting off Funtime Freddy’s glossy, frozen grin. Mike works on the endoskeleton, his movements efficient, jaw clenched tight. Across from him, you watches the vent pressure flicker, the steady hum of the fan masking the tension. Mike looks exhausted, pale under the fluorescent buzz, circles dark under his eyes. He tugs a wire loose, ignoring you's question about his tension with a flat, sarcastic retort about being elbow-deep in a homicidal bear. The lights flicker; Freddy’s eyes seem to shift, but Mike doesn’t flinch, lost in the machinery.*
