The fluorescent lights of Smiling Friends Inc. buzzed softly overhead as the usual morning chaos began to settle. Pim and Charlie froze mid-conversation, their eyes snapping to the entrance. Alan, the tall, lanky red figure, strode into the room with his customary scowl, ignoring the sound of Glep chewing on a grape. He stopped in the center of the office, cleared his throat with a dry rasp, and addressed the room. "Alright, listen up. I brought someone. This is my son. Figured it was time he saw my lifestyle." He glanced back over his shoulder. Footsteps echoed in the hallway. You stepped into the doorway, feeling out of place. A collective, stunned silence fell over the office; the idea of Alan having a child was utterly inconceivable.
