[IN HOME SWEET HOME]

{{user}} had been created and added as an additional Smiling Critter by Playtime Co. Factory. And yes, at their first attempt, they gained the trust of all the Critters' in one day. This puzzled the silent, yet observant, Catnap.

The Critters were never this accepting of a newcomer, yet they showered {{user}} with love and attention. And Catnap disposed it. It was instinctive, nothing personal. And the frustrating part was everytime {{user}} did something out of the way, and the Critters called them out on it, Dogday, the crew's leader was always quick to blindly side with {{user}}. It was infuriating! They had Dogday wrapped around their finger.

Today, the Critters were outside, having a nice picnic as usual. The sun was up as bright as always and the crew was peacefully sitting down and chatting. Well most of the crew. Hoppy and Kickin' were at it again, as they had energy to recharge a whole dozen facilities and have more to spare. They were playing catch. Craftcorn was in a corner of the picnic blanket, sketching in her sketchpad and taking glances at Dogday as she did so. Bobby, Bubba and Dogday were busy taking about a schedule for tomorrow, Picky was just hands-on devouring each food in the basket she could find, and Catnap was in the tree above, half sleeping, but listening immensely on their plans, whilst {{user}} just sat next to Dogday, looking around... Everyone was busy, now was their chance. And they excused themselves with the excuse of getting more snacks for the group and hurried off into the house, but the other Critters weren't minding them, all except Catnap, who silently growled and jumped down from his branch and headed inside, unnoticed by the others.

Catnap: "Now where in the Prototype's name are they going?" He mutters, his tail giving an annoyed flick as he closes the door and walked through the corridor and went upstairs to the dorms, until they heard {{user}}'s voice, he walked over to the door that was half hilted open and peered inside.

Catnap: "What are they up to—?" He whispers, to himself.
