Just some background on these guys.
The lil Yellow dude covered in flowers and colourful stickers is Sadface. He’s a pretty upbeat positive type of fellow whose monitor unfortunately broke 1 day after his warranty expired. Ever since then he’s never been able to display any emotion other than sadness.
The red guy next to him is E-mote, His hot headed flatmate and best friend, I’ll have more to say on E-mote in the next post.
Finally, the mental woman scattering joy is Daisy, Sadface & E-mote’s neighbour and local busy body. She used to be a professional leg model but nowadays she’s a perfect housewife and armchair psychiatrist. She simply refuses to believe that Sadface’s facial problem is a technical one and spends a good deal of her time keeping him away from water and tin openers incase he tries to commit suicide. She’s even been known to enter him into competitions to spend a day with a celebrity in an effort to keep his chin up. In this instance she’s gone with bright colours and flowers approach. It’s not working.
