   Summary

   Jack still can't figure out who these people in white labcoats are: mad scientists or his saviors? But his new friends, Kevin and Matthew, have a much more defined opinion on this matter. And vague memories tell Jack that it's better not to trust these scientists, no matter how gentle their voices may sound. To get out of this dangerous place alive, the three friends will have to work together, otherwise they will all face something terrible and irreparable.

   OR

   An AU, where Jack gets to come to his senses and actually know other Doey "components" before being experimented on. (Summary above by the original author.)

   Summary

   What is important? Is it friends, belongings, or is it family? Was it actually wanting to find belonging in a place where you wouldn’t have been anything otherwise except for what they've made you?

   Matthew Hallard is depressed, anxious, and miserable in Playcare. After losing his parents, he's now alone in the "care" of Playtime Co.
   All he wants is a friend. To help get him through these tough times.
   Maybe his new roommate could help.
   Probably, if he wasn't such a jerk.
