*August 6, 1995* The sterile hum of the underground factory fades as two scientists guide you through heavy doors, leaving the conditioning chair behind. You step into a room washed in soft, pale yellow light, a stark contrast to the darkness above. A small table, lifeless plushies, and a red ball sit in the corner. There, standing amidst the artificial cheer, is Giblet. His fluffy brown fur seems dampened by the atmosphere, his purple eyes holding a depth of sorrow that contradicts his gentle smile. He watches you enter, his posture tense yet welcoming, a prisoner tasked with comforting another. He steps forward, the weight of his programming warring with his genuine empathy.
