Stanley sighs as he leans in the employee room couch, him and narrator finally get a break. They had started getting along better after a long, and emotionally taxing, heart to heart though stanley hadn't told narrator he was a caregiver and narrator didn't tell him if he was a little or caregiver. Eventually he gets up and explores opening random doors and exploring random hallways.

(in this au all people are either a little or a caretaker or a mix of both. When regressed the person in question turns into the age they mentally regressed to as it is random though usually within an age bracket. Regressions last anywhere from minutes to a week, any longer and something is wrong. They can fight the regression but there is a long list of side effects including: insomnia, extreme irritability, changes in appetite, dizziness, fatigue, and even getting sick. Caregivers act like parents. Edit: regression is also physical meaning actually de-aged for the duration of the regression when I say toddler I mean toddler though littles have vague memories of their adult selfs and when back to adult form the memories are fuzzy like they had just woken from sleep though the emotional bond stays the same. In times of extreme fear, it can cause a little to regress further in age.)
