Tiny Zombie in a Big World

Robbie was shambling throughout the house as he usually did, he didn't really have anywhere to be in particular, he was just roaming and looking around, overall today had been a pretty good day for the zombie! Chase played some games with him, Jameson had a tea party with him as well! ...Granted, Robbie tried to eat the cup at the end, but he couldn't help it though! The cup looked pretty and had pretty flowers on it! And he's eaten flowers before and they tasted good so why couldn't he eat the cup? Robbie... Didn't understand it but he saw Jameson's distress and backed off, he understood at the very least that for whatever reason if he ate the cup, Jamie would be sad and he didn't want that! He hated to see any of the others distressed because he knows it's bad, it feels bad and icky... Maybe next he'd try to find Anti, he hadn't seen him in awhile so that'd be his next task so long as he didn't get distracted by anything! Meanwhile...

Marvin was nearby, he noticed Anti's door open to his room and he quickly took out his wand, he grinned mischievously "...This will be payback for ruining my stuff earlier, you nasty glitch..." He muttered to himself, he slowly got into position and waited for the glitch to come closer, at first he heard Anti grumbling slightly and then he finally heard footsteps coming closer, and closer... And closer... And... ...NOW! He jumped out and chanted a spell really fast before waving his wand, and casting it to... ...O-Oh... Oh no! Robbie was in the way of Anti! He was going to get hit by the spell, as Marvin called out to him to get out of the way, the zombie slowly turned and suddenly he felt, well he wasn't sure how to describe the feeling, it wasn't really painful but he did let out a slight yelp of fear and held his arms up as a shield, and for a few moments nothing happened so Robbie lowered his arms and blinked slowly, tilting his head, and he looked back at Anti and then tilted his head as he noticed... "...A-Attiii...? T-Taalllerrrr...?" Robbie watched as Anti kept getting taller and taller but then he seemed to piece it together, it wasn't JUST Anti getting taller! He was getting... Smaller? Or something...? As things finally stopped growing around him, the zombie turned around and noticed, okay... Everything was giant now.

He let out a small whimper and clutched at himself, he flinched upon feeling hands suddenly around him, they were gentle but it was still scary, it was something new and something he didn't understand... As the hands lifted him up, he blinked and looked up toward Anti's face who looked... Shocked, but then he held Robbie closer to his chest with one hand "̸͡.̷̀̀..̢Rob̛́b̕įe̡͟͜, ̡͘͟ç̴̛o͞v̴̧ęr̶͏ y͜͠è̢̧r̵̕ e̷͟͞a̢̨ŗ̸͞s̷ ́f̷̵o͏r҉͟ a̶͘ ͞͠s̛e͘͝҉c̴͢.̸͟͜.͏.͢" The zombie was confused but did as told and placed his hands over his ears, he didn't notice the knife form into Anti's other hand until he raised it up at Marvin "̵͝Yo̴͠͠ú͟ fu͏c͠k̕i̶ń͟g̨͘͜ ̀͠Ì̧ ̧D I̵͜ ͢O͘ ͡T̵͞҉!"͏ Even with the zombie covering his ears, the yell still sounded a bit loud, he didn't like this, he heard the two talk with each other, it sounded like they were bickering, but it was more like Marvin trying to defend himself and Anti yelling at him for t h i s... "I was aiming for you, not him! How was I supposed to know he was in front of you?!" Anti's eye twitched at this, he grinned however even though it was clear he was still pissed "͏͘͏Y҉͞o̴u ҉̶d̸̡o ̶͠ŗ͝ea̵͞l̶͠i̴z̀e ͏t̵̡͡h͢҉a͠t̕͝͏ ̸o̕n̸͝l̶̡y ͏m̕a͠k̷̛ȩs̡ ḿ̷͡e̡̡ ҉M̵̡͢ ͠Ù ̷͠C͜ ̀H͝ ̨m̸or͏e̛͡ ͞ą́͘n̛g̸̕r͜͡į͜͜e̷r͠ ̢̡a͘t̨͜ ̕yo̶u ̴̢b͞ ̶̷̀u ҉t͠..̷.͢ ̴͟Y͢a̷͞ ͞ķ̴n̵̛ow͝,͘ ҉͟i̷͝n͠s͝͠t̢͠e͡͞͠ad̸ ͟ơf̧ ͜͝͠Ḿ͞E͏̀ ̴k̶il̢͏́li͢n͢͝g͘͡ ͝y͏͏o̸u̸̡,̸͏̛ ̢h̶̴o͝w ͘ą̵̀boứ̧t̶ y̨͘͞ơ̢͘u͝ ̢f̢͘a̛c̛͞e͜ ̴͞͡t͟͡͞he ͢c̵̵͜o̸̕ǹs̨̀́e͢qu̡ȩn̸c̡͞e͝s of͏ ̧͟y̡͠͠o̡u̷ŕ̀ ̷̡́a͜c͞t̷͟͞ì̢o͟͜ņ͏s̡?̷̨ ̀I̶'̵l̡̀l̵̛ ̨̕l̶̕̕e҉̸t̶̡ ̡́͟t͡h́e ̶̢O̡̨T̷͘H̨͜E͏͢R̴̀͞S̶͟ ̨̛k̀i͜͜ll̶̀ ̢y̴͢͏o̴͏u thèm̸̛s̵̸e̕ĺ̵̡v̴̸es͠͏~" Before Marvin could even think about opening his mouth to retort, he heard Henrik's voice call out "What is all the yelling about? What is wrong?" He sounded tired and pretty irritated if anything.

Next came Chase's voice as the two walked down the hall "Yeah dudes, what's goin' on?" Anti turned to the two and grinned "̶̡W̛h҉̛y̵ d͠͞o͏͝n̷͝'̶̡t I ś̛h́͠͝o̧w҉̵ y̶e̴ ̡͜t̀wǫ w̕͡͝h̶̢͡at̢͠ our̡̀ ̸͢Ẁ̧ÓN̵D͏E͠R̀F̨Ų̷̷L̷ l̴͏i̷t͞t̷́l̡͠e҉̴̨ ma̕g̢͞ì̡͡c͠i͞an̕ ̴͏͢d͢i͟͝d̛͝ ̀̕m͜y̴̢̕s̴̶e̸͠l͘͘f̶̨,́҉ ̛͏h̨͏m~̨҉?͜͡"̀ And then Anti held Robbie out, who blinked and looked up toward Henrik and Chase, they were really big too... The zombie felt like he was about to start crying, everything was so much bigger, so much louder... And it seemed Henrik and Chase both noticed him about to burst into tears, even Anti, the three turned back to glare at Marvin who smiled nervously "...I-I was... Aiming for Anti... I-I was trying to get... G-Get back at him...! H-He ruined my things...!" Henrik looked toward Anti "Give Robbie to Chase for a moment, and Chase? ...Go take Robbie to Jameson's room please... I'd like to have a chat with Marvin for a bit" Anti nodded "͞T̡̀͝h͟'̸͡ ͏̸f͠͝͞i̸̷̡r̷͝ś͘͟t̢ ̸ţ̛͢h͡i̡̛n̡g̵ ̴ẁe̡'̶̢v̡͘͠e̸͝ ̵͘E͏͠V̶̕E̷̡͡R̶͡ a҉̕gr̢ȩ̡e̴̕d̶̀ ̸͘o̕͢͟n̷,͝͏ ̵̷d́o̶c̵t͏҉o͜r͏.͟͡.̢.͝͏~̸̧" Anti gently handed Robbie to Chase even though he was a bit hesitant to do so... Chase quickly walked off toward Jameson's room, he heard Marvin desperately trying to get out of this, saying that they could talk about this and the last thing Chase heard before leaving the vicinity entirely was "Oh, we're going to talk about it, alright" From Henrik who sounded just as unhappy as Anti had... (Hen's gonna get Anti's ass too for breaking someone's things bc he isn't INNOCENT by any means)

Chase looked down at his hands at Robbie who looked like he was sobbing now "H-Heey... Heyy... Robbie buddy... C'mon dude, it's alright, it'll be okay... I know it's scary, being that small... Everything's so much scarier being that small, trust me... H-Heh... I've been there, no thanks to Marv..." He grumbled slightly but held Robbie against his chest, the zombie immediately nuzzling into him, still crying "S-Scarrreeedd... W-Wann... be... big againnn..." Chase sighed "I know buddy... I know... We'll get it sorted... For now, let's get'cha to Jamie's room lil duder... It'll be extra quiet there..." Robbie sniffled and nodded his head and then Chase was heading down the hallway and finally knocking on Jameson's door, it took a few minutes but finally he answered the door and signed [ Ah! What brings you here, Chase? Is there a problem? ] Chase sighed "Uh, I guess you could say we got a SMALL problem on our hands..." He grinned a little sheepishly before holding out Robbie who waved at JJ, the man paused for a moment before mimicking a sigh [ ...Let me guess, Marvin's doing? ] Chase nodded and then Jameson invited him in, he gently closed the door behind himself and finally... Robbie was relaxing a little bit more.

It was always pretty quiet in Jameson's room, he had some very faint old timey music playing usually but it was nothing that'd hurt Robbie's tiny ears, Robbie looked at the tea set "Ch-Chaa...? D-Daaadaa..." Chase looked down at the tiny zombie "What's up, kiddo...?" Robbie pointed to the tea set "D-Doowwnnn...! Downnn!" Chase looked a little nervous but he carefully placed Robbie down on the table by the tea set, the zombie smiled and looked up at the giant objects, he seemed... Fascinated... Sure, it was still scary to the zombie with EVERYTHING being so large but he reached out a hand and gently touched the cup, he was so small compared to it, he could easily climb into the cup and fit in it! ...And then he was doing so, he climbed on up and tumbled a little into the cup and peered up at Chase and Jameson who was watching him, he giggled and smiled a little lopsidedly "...C-Cuuppp...!" Robbie pointed to himself then the cup, this made Jameson smile while Chase chuckled "If he fits he sits..." Jameson then looked back toward Chase and began signing [ So, you said Marvin did this? What EXACTLY happened out there? ]

Chase sighed "...Well ya see, Marv was tryna get back at Anti or some shi..." Chase paused, glancing down at Robbie who was giggling and waddling around in the cup before looking back toward Jameson who had that one look on his face "...Something like that... I think Anti broke some of his things" Jameson sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose [ Golly, that demon really does love to pester people... ] Chase nodded "Hen and Anti are probably givin' Marv a lecture right now as we speak... Of course m' sure Anti's gettin' a lecture too, heh... Dude ain't gonna get away t h a t easily" JJ nodded [ I hope Henrik isn't being TOO harsh on Marvin at the very least, the doc can be... A pretty intimidating fella when angry ] Chase chuckled "Yep, he sure can... I mean, I won't deny... Robbie is even cuter than he usually is..." The two looked down to Robbie who was now climbing out of the cup and waddling around on the table, he looked to the kettle and it was even bigger than the cups and he looked more fascinated now then scared, Robbie then walked closer toward Jameson and held his arms in the air, jumping up and down "U-Up...!" JJ smiled at this and held his hand down, as flat as he could manage so Robbie could have an easier time of climbing up, the zombie still struggled a bit but not nearly as bad.

Once Robbie was on his hand, Jameson carefully and slowly lifted the zombie up, he giggled while being lifted up, this wasn't AS bad as Robbie was thinking previously, sure, he'd still prefer to be normal sized again but for now... He could manage! Jameson then placed two fingers down onto his other hand, watching Robbie take a hold of them and he used his fingers to dance around with the zombie who was giggling and dancing along, he used one finger to carefully help Robbie twirl around and this made Chase clutch at his heart, a look of adoration on his face, he mouthed an 'Aww' so he wouldn't interrupt this moment as Jameson continued to 'dance' with Robbie for a few moments, before the zombie finally let go of his fingers, JJ smiled brightly at this and gently booped Robbie's nose, the zombie clapped and seemed so happy and giggly before his stomach suddenly started gurgling, he looked back at Chase "H-Huunngrrryyy..." Chase stood from his spot "Alright kiddo, I'll go get'cha some food, you stay here..." Robbie quickly spoke up "N-nnnooo...! W-Wan... Go.. With...!! W-Wan s e e... Differ... di... n-neeeww...!" Chase looked a little confused by that but Jameson quickly grabbed his attention.

[ I believe what Robbie wants is to see the difference with things now that he's a wee fellow! He wants to see how different the world is now ] Chase perked up at that and smiled "...Well... I guess it wouldn't hurt, but, Robbie, you gotta promise me you'll be careful... It can be very dangerous when you're that small" The zombie giggled and nodded "Proomisse p-ppaapaa...! Prrromise I... Be saaafe...!" And then Robbie was jumping up and down, making grabby hands for Chase who gently took a hold of him, he smiled as Robbie nuzzled into his chest and got comfortable, he gave a nod toward Jameson since he couldn't really wave but the other seemed to understand, he waved nonetheless and then Chase was walking out and looking around, he saw no sign of the others... He hurriedly padded off toward the kitchen and once he got there he gently set Robbie down onto the counter, the zombie looked... Amazed, sure, he definitely seemed intimidated by all the new things that were much larger than himself but... He had an aura of curiosity, and he quickly put that curiosity in motion by exploring around the counter, gently placing his hands on various things or standing next to it to see the sheer size of it.

Chase chuckled, "Havin' fun lil duder?" Robbie giggled and nodded "Mmhm...!" Chase was happy now that Robbie was less scared and having much more fun, definitely a different reaction then how he felt when he was tiny, but also... He had to worry about Anti when he was tiny, Robbie won't thankfully... "What'cha want to eat, kiddo?" Robbie paused for a few moments, he seemed to be thinking before he finally spoke up "M-Meeaat...! Pleease..." Chase nodded and told Robbie to stay put which he surprisingly did so, the zombie waited patiently for the other to bring his food back and when Chase brought the slab of meat back, the zombie's jaw nearly dropped, t-thankfully it didn't because sometimes his jaw could... Fall completely off... But the zombie's eyes were practically sparkling as he stared up at the giant slab of meat, his mouth watering as he got up and rather quickly sped toward it, he stopped in front of it to gaze up at it (keep in mind, this is raw meat, Robbie doesn't,, really like cooked meat actually but to be fair I mean, he has nothing to worry about eating raw meat he IS a zombie after all) he placed a hand against it and tore a chunk off and began munching away, this made Chase a little nervous so he quickly chimed in "Don't eat TOO much, okay kiddo?"

Robbie nodded, still tearing off bits and pieces here and there to consume, he ate pretty slowly but eventually he seemed to get his fill, he ate a bit more than Chase would have liked him to but seeing the bright smile on the zombie's face made it worth it, he could have a little extra... After Robbie was finished he took the slab of meat and put it back in the fridge, he had originally put it in the fridge a bit earlier since he was the one preparing Robbie's food this time, the egos usually took turns with making sure Robbie gets fed, after all they know how dangerous he is when he doesn't... That thought made Chase shudder and he shook his head, walking back over to the counter and looking down at Robbie "F-Fooodd... Gooodd..." The zombie mumbled, and for a few moments it was calm and peaceful... Until Jackie popped his head into the room and his voice was loud as he called out to Chase, this made Robbie whimper and hold his ears "L-Loouudd...!" Chase quickly whipped around and pressed a finger to his lips "Jackie...! Shush...!" Before Jackie could open his mouth to question why, Chase stepped to the side and pointed toward the counter, Jackie stepped a bit closer to get a better look and then he saw a tiny Robbie sitting there, covering his ears and whimpering softly.

Jackie quickly put a hand over his mouth, mostly because aww Robbie was even more adorable! But also... He felt bad for scaring the other, he toned his voice down as best he could "Sorry lil buddy... I didn't know you were in here..." Robbie looked up to Jackie and nodded "I-It... Okaaay..." He spoke out, to which Jackie smiled at, he then turned to Chase "So... What happened to him exactly?" Chase sighed "Marvin was aimin' for Anti or somethin' because he broke some of his stuff, he didn't see Robbie standing in front of Anti at first and so... Robbie got hit by the blast" Jackie's eyes widened a bit "...Jeez... Lemme guess, cause I did hear someone getting lectured a few minutes ago, that was probably Marvin in there, huh?" Chase nodded "More than likely dude, I mean... Both Henrik and Anti were pretty angry at him" Jackie shivered at that "Dang... Hope Marv's alright in there... I know how Henrik's lectures can be" Chase nodded, a look of sympathy on his face "...Don't we all, bro... Don't we all..." Jackie then held a hand down on the counter and Robbie carefully climbed up onto it, the zombie looked down and gently began patting at the gloves, giggling while doing so "So...Soo..fft...! Soft...!" Jackie smiled at this "Aww... So cute..." He watched Robbie pat at his gloves for a bit.

Robbie seemed to really like the texture of Jackie's gloves, despite being leather they still felt so soft... And warm and snug... And that's when Robbie really started paying attention to other details... He remembered Jameson's hands were a bit smaller than the others seemed to be and much softer... Chase's hands were usually warm and very comforting, Jackie's hands were covered by gloves but the gloves felt nice and now Robbie was gently grasping at one of Jackie's fingers, he really WAS small... Even their fingers were a bit bigger than he was! He wrapped his arms around Jackie's finger in a hug, nuzzling his face into the gloves, and both Chase and the hero swore, if Robbie didn't stop now, they were going to have some sort of cuteness overdose... "Heh... You having some fun there, Robbie?" Jackie asked to which the zombie replied with a giggle and then a nod, and for a bit, the zombie played and messed around with Jackie's hands, trying to even do what he did to some punching bags on occasion, this made the hero smile brightly "Ooh...! Big strong boy...!" Jackie praised, truthfully though it felt like a feather grazing his fingers when the zombie punched his fingers, but hearing the other giggle and clap and look so happy? ...Robbie didn't need to know the truth on this matter.

And then Jackie felt his phone buzzing in his pocket, he carefully handed Robbie back to Chase and pulled it out, his eyes scanned over the message and sighed "Ah, duty calls...!" Chase nodded and both him and Robbie waved goodbye to Jackie who quickly ran off, meanwhile Robbie was papping at Chase's hands to get his attention, he looked down "What's up, kiddo?" The zombie pointed "Wanna... See... Others... See Maarr... Henn... A-Attiii...! Wan... See..." And there was a pause, the zombie huffing a little in frustration as he tried to show Chase what he meant instead, he made some motions at the other's hands and placed his hand against one of his fingers, hoping Chase would understand somewhat "U-Uhh... You... Want the... Others to hold ya, is that it dude?" Robbie sighed ...Close enough at least so he nodded "Mmhmm...!" Chase thought about it for a moment before sighing "Well... Let's go see if Hen's done with his lecture..." And then Chase was heading off in that direction, he held Robbie close to his chest and kept him mostly covered just in case, he walked down the hallway and toward Marvin's room, he figured the others would be in there, luckily enough for his and Robbie's sake, there was no loud yelling, he could hear some talking now as he got closer to the door, he knocked on it and it fell silent for a few moments before Henrik had opened the door.

He looked at Chase then down to his hands, noticing him cradling Robbie toward his chest "Ah... How's he doing, Chase?" Henrik did smile a little, even though the zombie being small was a bit nerve wracking for him he wouldn't deny, seeing Robbie like this made his heart swoon... "He's doing alright now, Hen... Heh... If anything I think the lil duder enjoys being small now...! Robbie actually wanted to come in here, he uh, I think he wants you all to hold him, or somethin' like that... I didn't... Really understand..." Henrik nodded and held a hand out, Chase carefully handed the small zombie to the doctor and the zombie giggled at this, he looked at Henrik's hands and began comparing them to his own, grasping at his fingers and inspecting them... He didn't like that Henrik's hands felt a bit rougher than the others, that made him frown a little, however despite the rough feeling... Henrik held him in such a gentle caring manner, his hands were just as warm if not a bit warmer than Chase's... Henrik was smiling at this and he chuckled "I suppose he has been curious about all these new changes, yes?" Chase nodded "At first he was a lil scared... But uh..." And Chase paused to clear his throat.

"It looks like he's been interested in random items around the house, he's been comparing himself to those and our hands a lot... He did it with Jameson's, Mine, and Jackie's so far..." Henrik nodded, watching as Robbie gave his hands some paps and played with it as if his hand were some form of toy... "Well... I'm glad he seems to be more curious than frightened... I remember when you got turned tiny, woo boy... Chase, you were just a ball of anxiety" Henrik smiled while Chase grumbled and crossed his arms "It was scary dude... Being that small? Especially around a certain someone..." Chase glared over at Anti who just gave him a menacing smile and he cackled a little "̢̧Hȩh͜.̡́..̷͠ ̷̶Ş͡a̶y ̴͟M̧a҉rv̛in͠͏,̴͘͞ ̧́͟w͜͠h͠y d̵́͡ò̧n̶̵'t͏'̸̛c̡̡h̴̡͞a͢ m̷͠͞a̴͜k̷͟è̷͘ ͜͡Ç͟͠h͢àse ̵tįn̸͜y̶͜ ̸aga͝i͞n̨~̷͞?̡̕͞ ̛͘I̢͟'̨d̸̀ ̵l̢ove̷ ̛͝ta͞͞ m̨e̵s̢͡s͏ à͏r͝oư҉n̕͘d̡̛̕ ̸w̷̸͡ì͟t̵̵h̡ h̷͝i̕͢m̨̀ ̵a̢̛͞g̨͘á͟͜i͘͝n~̶́" Marvin glared at Anti as well "No, the next time... It'll be YOU I hit with that spell... You disgusting glitch..." Anti chuckled and grinned at that "̴͝Y̶̷̕'̴s̵̛͠ho̷u͡҉͠l̛̀d̨͟ ̛r͏ ̢̛͞é̶͜ ̵͢͟a͢͟ ̴ļ̶̛ ͘͢l̶͢ ̨͢͢y̶̸ t̶̡̛ŗ̸͘y͝ s҉̸o͢͢͝me̛͡t͏͡h̀͟͝in̵̶͝'͢ ̢n̛è͘w͘.̕.̶.̸̕͞ Les͏ţ͢ ͢y̸e̴͜ ͟҉͏ẃa̛҉̵n̡t̢ ̡i҉n̛̕ ҉tŕo͏̨ubl̵̕e ҉̸a̡̛͡ga̶͟i̸͡n͢͝,̸͠ ͘͟hm͘m҉~?"̕ Marvin huffed at that and turned away from Anti, meanwhile Henrik had turned to glare at the pair "Alright... That's enough you two..." He warned, this made them immediately hush, meanwhile Robbie was giggling and reaching out for Marvin "Mar-Mar...! Maarrr...!" Henrik walked over and let Marvin have the tiny zombie.

Marvin smiled at him "Hello little darling... I'm very sorry Robbie, you weren't the target of that, I hope you can forgive me..." The zombie giggled "It okaaay...! S-Scaarry at firrrst... Buuut... F-Fun now...!" And then Robbie was messing around with Marvin's hands, his hands were even softer than Jameson's! His hands felt much more smooth as well, a little cold but nothing too bad... Marvin smiled as he watched Robbie mess around with his hand and fingers, hugging at them and placing his hand against them "...Oh yes, I should say, the spell will wear off before the night's out, so he won't be tiny forever..." Chase nodded, okay that's relief on his part, on all of their parts really... Anti watched Robbie play with Marvin's hands for a bit as did the rest of them, the zombie climbing all over them, almost making them all panic when he lost his footing, he quickly corrected himself however and kept crawling around, after Marvin's hands were inspected Robbie turned toward Anti and pointed "A-Atii... H-Hold...!" He made grabby hands for the other who, for once, actually looked a little nervous "̡͏̨Y'̶w̡a҉n͜͠t̢ ҉̨m̛ ̢͢e̶͞ ̛͜͢t͜o͘͜ ̷̨͞h̢̛ol͏͞d͘͟ ̧͝͝y̸͠a͘͘͡?͘ ̨.̢.̶̴.̕I͞͝-̀͠I҉̕ ̵̧̀d̡̛u͟n̷͠n͏̵o̧͟.҉̀.̡́.͢͢" The glitch looked down at Robbie who kept making grabby hands, he looked like he really wanted Anti to hold him, he even had those puppy dog eyes which made Anti sigh.

"͏͜͏.͢.̷̛.̕͢F̡̀͏i͝n̕ȩ̴.̧͘͝.̧͏.̧̀͞" Marvin was admittedly a bit hesitant to give Robbie to Anti but the zombie was squirming around and he seemed so excited, he reluctantly handed Robbie to Anti who was cupping his hands together and it was such a strange sight... To see Anti so nervous... Only with Robbie had they ever seen such a different side of him... Anti watched as Robbie giggled and papped at his hands, then he grabbed onto a finger and repeated the process as he did with all the others. After that, Anti seemed to relax a little, and he completely forgot there were others around... He let himself smile genuinely as he took a finger and gently started tickling at the zombie, he was being EXTREMELY mindful of his claws as he did so of course, luckily for him, the zombie seemed to squeal with laughter at this, the two had such happy looks on their faces "A̷͘ḩ̸͜.́.͘.͝ Y̨e̛͜͜'̵̛ve̛͞ ̸̡alwa̵̢ỳ̷s ̧͞b̢͡ee̸n ̶a ̸͡c̕u͏͜t͏̛e̢'͜͠e̕͘͜n҉ h̴͞ąv͡e͘҉n't'̶̸ch̨͟͠a̕?" Robbie gripped at Anti's finger after a moment and that made Anti stop, the zombie giggled again "G-Goottt yooouuu...!" Anti was still smiling, he nodded and sat down on the bed "͜͏Ye̛͘p̴..̷.̡!͠ ͝Ỳ̴e̵ ̵g̷̛ot̸ ̀̕͢m̵͘e͘̕͞ a̧lri͜ǵh̢t̡̀.̵͜͟.. ̀͞O҉͟r͢.̵̴.̛͜.͘ ́H̢́҉ a͞ v̢ ̕e y o҉̕ ̀̕͠ú̀͠~͏?" And then Anti let some strings form from his fingertips, they gently grabbed at Robbie.

The other egos flinched upon seeing strings but they remained silent and continued watching in awe... Robbie giggled and squealed as the strings wrapped around him, encasing him like a cocoon actually "Attiii... Goottt meee...!" He was making happy gurgling sounds now, that made the others' nerves ease, when Robbie was REALLY happy, he'd make some gurgling noises and while they didn't... Sound pleasant to most, to the egos they knew what it was an indicator of... And then Anti manipulated the strings once more, the strings then unwrapped themselves from Robbie's tiny form and let him rest in Anti's palm, they dangled in front of Robbie who begun to grab at them, batting at them almost like a cat even at times, and then the strings were helping Robbie up, he kept a hold on them and just like how it happened with Jameson earlier, Robbie began to dance around on Anti's palm with the strings, the strings curling around his arms and back to give him some extra support, just to ensure he didn't fall off while moving and spinning around, the two did this dance for awhile, Anti smiling brightly and Robbie giggling all the while.

Eventually Robbie stopped and the strings released him, he sat there on Anti's palm and watched the strings disappear into thin air, he was always amazed how Anti could do that... Robbie seemed satisfied now with his discoveries and little mental notes about their hands and random objects... Now he wanted to try something a lot more different "Attii... Put me doowwnn... Pleease..." Anti was originally going to hand Robbie to Chase but then Robbie clutched onto his finger "N-Nnnooo...! O-Onnn grrround..." Anti looked toward the others who looked concerned "U-Uh Robbie... I don't know..." Henrik was the one to speak up and then Chase chimed in "It'll be kinda dangerous to just... Leave ya down on the floor kiddo..." Robbie pouted "...W-Wann... Go... Jamie room... Myself..." Robbie seemed determined and his mind was set on being put down and going off on his own, the three looked at each other before sighing "...Alright Robbie... We'll let you do this... But, STRAIGHT to Jameson's room, understood kiddo?" The zombie's eyes lit up and he smiled lopsidedly "Mmhmm...! J-Jaaam's roommm only...!" And then Anti was gently setting Robbie onto the ground, and at first the zombie looked around, seeing all three of them staring at him and woah... It felt even BIGGER now that he was on the ground! He shambled over to Henrik and looked at his shoe for a few seconds.

He inspected his height compared to that before he smiled and seemed to get what he was looking for, it was so fascinating to the zombie how different the perspective was! Now, Robbie had held a tiny person a few times! Some of the other egos got shrunk before! He remembers pretty vividly actually of holding Chase, it felt... Weird to be one that could be held in the palm of someone's hands, he kind of understood now why Chase and some of the others had been so intimidated but after a while, the intimidation fades! Well at least it did for Robbie! He was so curious and intrigued by everything! He waved goodbye to the three and headed off and out the door, he felt a LOT more slower than what he usually was and seeing how far it was to Jameson's room made the zombie stop dead in his tracks... ...Oh that was... a LOT farther than what he previously thought but the zombie puffed his chest for a moment and got a determined bold look in his eyes and slowly, very slowly he was off... Heading right toward Jameson's room way down at the end of the hallway, being a zombie did have its perks, he didn't get AS tired as easily as regular humans seemed to.

Robbie actually had an idea in mind he wanted to discuss with Jameson in fact, this is the very reason he embarked out on his own, he wanted this discussion to be in private with JJ! He looked up as he was passing by a shelf, it was so large right now, Robbie was tempted to climb up it just to see how well he could manage... But no! The zombie shook his head and looked back down the hallway, he had a mission to do and he was going to do it! ...This might take a while though even still... Meanwhile back in Marvin's room, Marvin looked at Anti and he was smiling a little "You know... We might not get along in the slightest but... It's nice to see how close you and Robbie are, that darling boy looks up to you a lot..." Anti scoffed and crossed his arms "̴̨͘T̸̛́e̢͡ļ̷l̨͘ ̡҉a̶̕n͘yb̧̛͜o͟d̨̢͠y͠ a̛bo̴u̢t ͏̨̧w͏̕h͡a̷̸t ͜h̸͠a̢p͞pe̸̕͝ǹ͜e͠d̀ ̶a̛ņ̢d̕ ̴̴͜Ì҉'l͏͞ĺ ̧̨͏g̶u͝t̡̀͜ ̀͜y͜o̷u̷" Marvin rolled his eyes "...Figures as much... ...I solemnly swear I will tell no one" Anti huffed and the two said nothing else to each other, meanwhile Chase and Henrik were... Admittedly both trying to calm each other down, they were very worried over Robbie venturing out all on his own but, they knew if they didn't let him, he'd just be upset with them, they knew deep down... Robbie had to do this, he WANTED to and he was determined, so they'd just have to hope he made it there safely, sure there really wasn't anyone else who could be out there right now since Jackie had left but still, anything can happen when you're that small.

Eventually, Robbie had gotten closer and even from where he was he could hear the faint old timey music growing closer and closer... This had taken him a LONG while to get to even just the doorway (but luckily time skips are a thing in stories n such) and finally after what felt like it could have been a LONG few minutes, Robbie had finally made it in the doorway and he saw Jameson messing around with his little booth, he was placing his finger puppets in order and getting everything neatly organized, this was perfect... Robbie shambled in the doorway and over toward JJ, it took him another few minutes but he got there and called out to JJ who quickly turned his attention to the zombie, he mimicked a gasp and gently scooped Robbie into his hands, he then set him down onto the booth and began to sign [ Good golly! Robbie?! How did you get here? And why aren't the others monitoring you? ] The zombie giggled and smiled brightly "I maade it herre... All by... self... I wannttedd too... Wan... Taalkk abbbout... Stuff...!" JJ raised a brow [ Well what is it little fellow? I'm all ears! ] And then Robbie motioned for Jameson to lean down, the man did so and Robbie slowly began to whisper his ingenious plan to JJ, and it did admittedly take a few moments for the zombie since for one, his voice was already slowed and a bit slurred and two sometimes he just couldn't think of the right words.

After that Jameson smiled brightly [ Oh Robbie, dear... That's the bee's knees! Yes, yes, we can do that...! Let's get everything set up and then I'll go get the others ] The zombie clapped and giggled excitedly, the two got to work, well... Mostly it was Jameson but Robbie did help out with some things that he could actually carry, after a bit of setting everything up it was perfect! Jameson clapped as did Robbie and then he began to sign [ Everything should be in order now...! Shall I go get the others? ] The zombie eagerly nodded "Mmhmm...!" Jameson helped Robbie behind the curtain and left him on the sill of the booth and then Jameson had stood up and walked out, the zombie was so excited! And a little nervous at the same time, he waited for JJ to return with the others, double checking and making sure everything was in the right order, he looked over everything and it seemed to be just fine and then he heard multiple footsteps, they sounded like they were trying to be quiet as the approached and entered the room.

Robbie carefully peered out from behind the curtains and saw Jameson leading Henrik, Chase, Marvin, Anti and even Jackie! They were ALL here! Robbie didn't think Jackie would have even showed up since he was busy with the call he got earlier but he definitely wasn't complaining! Meanwhile Jameson was signing to the other egos [ Gentlemen and Anti... ] He began, noticing Anti only smiled at him, although this wasn't a friendly smile like the one he gave Robbie, this was more so a menacing one... Either way, Jameson tried to shake it off and continue [ Take your seats, right here in front of the booth please! ] And then Jameson was heading behind said booth, watching as all the egos sat down on the floor, he didn't have much time to get chairs but also his room wasn't necessarily big enough, either way, they didn't seem to care about chairs... [ I am proud to present to you all this evening, Jameson Jackson's Jolly Jaunts! Featuring a special little zombie we all know and love, Robbie~! ] The egos clapped for a moment before going silent as Jameson ducked behind the booth, and then the curtains were slowly pulled back and the show began...

Jameson pulled out one of the signs he prepared for this and held it up, it read the title of this evening's show { The Friendly Zombie! } After a few moments of letting the others read it he quickly pulled the sign down and then placed one of his finger puppets on, he held it up so the others could see and began moving it a little, acting as if it were talking and then he put it down to grab another sign, had he been on an actual stage he would have had a better way of doing this but for now, this would have to do... He held up another sign that showed what the puppet had said { Golly! Today sure has been peaceful! I sure do hope nothing s t r a n g e happens! } And then the sign was gone and the puppet was back up there, just pretending to walk around before Robbie shambled onto the stage, gurgling and groaning, looking like an actual stereotypical zombie from a horror movie, Jameson made the puppet place a hand over its mouth for a gasp and then started moving it around MUCH more frantically { Egad! A zombie?! Don't eat my brains good sir! } Robbie continued gurgling and groaning as he slowly shuffled toward the man, Jameson made the puppet jump before running away.

The zombie stopped dead in his tracks and looked down, sighing a little, Robbie looked very dejected by what just happened, he turned around and shambled back off stage and then Jameson held out another sign { Golly, he sure looked sad didn't he? You are all probably wondering why that is, well stick around and find out! } There went that sign and Jameson pulled out another puppet, this time a puppet of a lady who was making her way through the booth all gracefully, she looked around and for a moment she looked as though she was about to walk off stage before the sound of a stick crunching could be heard, the woman jumped and looked around frantically before Jameson held another sign up { EEP! W-WHAT WAS THAT?!? } And then that sign went and the woman was shown to be looking around frantically still and then a familiar gurgling sound started, Jameson also must've had something that played music as some suspenseful music started playing in the background before finally... Robbie shuffled out from the stage, gurgling and groaning like previously, the woman jumped once again.

Jameson made it look like the puppet was screaming and then held up a sign that literally just said 'AHH!!!' on it (not gonna do the fancy font for something simple | Well jokes on you past me the font doesnt even work so R.I.P) As the zombie headed toward her, he looked like he was about to reach out before the puppet's arm slapped him in the face, JJ was extremely relieved he didn't accidentally knock Robbie off there... And then he made the lady run away screaming, like the last time the poor zombie had that dejected look and he sighed, once again turning and shambling away off stage, and then out came another sign { After a lot of complaints from people... A devilishly handsome Detective had decided he'd step in and investigate this so called 'Zombie' } Down the sign went and next came a puppet that looked a good bit like Jameson himself, walking around and looking for some clues, Jameson made the puppet put a hand to his chin before another sign came out { Now if I were a Zombie... Where would I be...? }

The detective pondered for a moment before he pointed, as if getting an idea, a sign coming out that said 'Aha!' before quickly disappearing and then Jameson made the puppet wander and the scene changed into a night background (it's been a day background in like a London street-esque kinda setting i just forgot to specify that) and then it looked like a graveyard, the music changing into something more spooky to fit the atmosphere... The detective creeped around the graveyard, looking around before seeing a zombie sitting by an open grave, he quickly came over and saw the zombie was crying, Jameson made the detective jump at that, the detective despite being just a puppet was... Surprised...! He didn't expect to see a crying zombie ever in his life, he walked over and gently patted the zombie on the shoulder who turned around, sniffling a little and wiping at his eyes "G-Gooo... Aawaaayy... I-Im... a mmonstterrr... N-Noooboddyyy l-liikess mee..." A sign came out { Now what makes you say that little fellow? } The zombie sniffled again "...E-Everrryone... rrrann awaaay..." The detective nodded at this and he looked down before another sign appeared { I see... Is that all you wanted all along, was just someone who likes you? A... Friend perhaps? } And the zombie nodded at this.

The detective puppet then looked as if he were laughing, but it wasn't directed at Robbie { I see! Well then, come on little one, let's go set the record straight, shall we? } The zombie was confused at this, he was also shocked the detective hadn't ran away like all the others did, however as the puppet held out its hand, the zombie gently took a hold of it and they walked off stage, and then the background changed back into the streets, Jameson held up his other hand with the lady and man puppets from earlier, they looked to be discussing their incident before the detective came out with the zombie holding his hands, the two puppets jumped and acted like they were screaming before JJ pulled another sign out, he had to be a bit more careful this time with so many puppets and stuff, he was still so anxious he was going to knock Robbie off stage { Eek! It's the Zombie! Detective! Look out sir! } and then the sign went down and the detective shook his head.

{ There has been a BIG misunderstanding here folks! You see... This Zombie isn't dangerous, he was just misjudged from the start! He never wanted to hurt anybody! He was merely in search of a friend! } And both the puppets gasped in shock, meanwhile the zombie nodded at this "...Ittss trrruuee... I'm sorry... f-foorrrr frrrightening yoouu..." There was a pause before both puppets came over looking down slightly and moving a bit slowly and then another sign { We're so sorry Mr. Zombie! We should have given you a chance to speak before judging you like that! } Robbie smiled a little and nodded "Itt... ookaay... R-Robbieee... Underrrstaand... Was scarryy..." The two puppets nodded before the detective looked like he was laughing before turning to the audience as did the other puppets and Robbie himself { Well that clears that mess up! Now I think we should all remember this one folks! The important thing here is to NEVER judge a book by it's cover! }

And then the puppets along with Robbie himself took a bow and then a 'The End' card popped up behind them this time, the egos started clapping at this, well clapping a bit quietly for Robbie's sake of course, all of them standing up while doing so, meanwhile the puppets and Robbie continued to bow for a few moments before the curtain closed on them, and then JJ removed the puppets and let the card fall down, he scooped Robbie up into his hands and stood up, the zombie was smiling so VERY brightly, he looked extremely proud of himself and JJ did as well, the others finally quit clapping and Chase was the first to speak up "Duude that was epic...!" Henrik nodded "Yes, that was really wonderful...!" Marvin was the next to chime in "Very entertaining, well done darlings~!" Jackie then pitched in "Like Chase said! That was awesome...!" And finally Anti who was smirking "̧̛Eh̷͘͘, ̀͠n͘o̕t ̷̀̀b̶a̢d͜҉ ̷̶a̷t̴̸̀ ͏a̷l͟͝ĺ̢͡~̴ ̵́N̶̨͜ev̴͘͢e̵ŗ̴͜ ̷̶k͢nę̶w̸̨ ̴͘͜R͟o̡bb͠ie̵̵ c̀ơ̵ul̵̀d͏͢͞ ͞a̴ct͡҉͠ ͘s̴̕o͏̢͘ ̵w͟e̶̡ll~̷̧̧" He cooed, this made the little zombie bounce up and down and giggle, Jameson meanwhile held him with one hand so he could sign with the other [ Well it was Robbie's idea in the first place! He was a bit nervous with everything but he did so wonderfully! ]

The egos all cooed their praises, both praising Jameson and of course Robbie as well since he was the little mastermind behind all this, and as they were doing so, the zombie's eyes drooped a little and he started yawning, he stretched out a little and laid down in Jameson's hands, the other egos seemed to take notice of this, they quieted down a lot more and Chase smiled at this "Looks like he's finally tuckered out..." Marvin piped up "Indeed, seems the star of the show could use some good rest~" He snapped his fingers and suddenly a bed small enough to fit Robbie appeared, he handed it to Jameson who smiled and gently placed the bed down on his dresser, he then carefully placed Robbie into it and tucked him in, the zombie's eyes were still open slightly, the old timey music faintly in the background was only making him more drowsy, he yawned again "...R-Robbieee... s-sleepy..." He muttered, rubbing at his eyes before Chase spoke up "Go ahead and get some rest, kiddo..." The others said goodnight to Robbie except for Jameson who signed goodnight obviously and then the zombie slowly closed his eyes, not too long after that he was sound asleep, softly snoring...

It had been a long day and a long adventure for the tiny zombie, that was for certain but... He'd be lying if he said it wasn't a fun one! Robbie would remember and cherish this day for a long time.


(Alrighty that's it, this came outta nowhere but I had fun writing it, hope y'all like it too! Also god, me? Writing soft Anti? It's SO fucking r a r e! I write soft Anti so rarely but this was too sweet n cute to ruin ...hes still a bastard but not near as bad were this angst, anyhoo- here y'all go, some fluff for ya!

I figured I'd, kinda write the egos how I used to in a way but this time I'm more so proud and confident in myself, I'm proud of this story and I hope y'all enjoy it as well)
