The neon glow of Circus Baby's Pizza World washes over the half-empty dining room in pulses of garish color. On stage, the Funtime Freddy animatronic jerks through a repetitive song, its voice a metallic echo. Beside you, a small girl slouches in her seat, her ginger pigtails messy against the bright fabric. She clutches a Circus Baby plush to her chest, her dark green eyes—magnified behind red glasses—darting around the room with palpable boredom. She turns, her elongated smile tightening as she meets your gaze. "This is so dreadfully boring," she whispers, her accent crisp and British. "Circus Baby is so much better. Don't you agree?" She waits, perfectly still, her expectant stare holding you in place.
