This is my entry in @tardis858 's band art contest. This is my take on FOB lead singer Patrick Stump as a doll, like in the 3rd Irresistible video they released (if anyone saw that but me xD). ---- As a bonus, here's a little story snippet for you guys: Patrick quite liked his little box up on the toy store shelf. It was cozy and peaceful, right across the aisle from the Barbie dolls. They were a little ditsy, sure, but they were about the only other toys on the aisle that Patrick could socialize with, and it's not like he could go visit any other aisles! No, his feet were strapped to the bottom of his box with plastic ties. Though he yearned to explore the rest of the toy store, he knew that his plastic restraints were only there to keep him safe. So he stayed. The only real excitement in Patrick's pink plastic world came from the kids. Every day, without fail, a child would scamper up to him and snatch his box off the shelf, begging. "Mommy, can we keep him?" The answer was always no. Patrick began to wonder what was wrong with him, why he was never taken home to be played with. 'Am I boring? Ugly? Defective?' He asked himself. He always did his best to be good, and good toys were always rewarded by being taken home; apparently, all except Patrick. Every day when the store opened and the kids would come to shop with their parents, Patrick would fix his hair, straighten his clothes, and smile his biggest smile in hopes of finally being taken home; however, the answer was always no. But Patrick never tired of his little routine. He assured himself every morning, 'Today's the day!'. It never was. There Patrick sat, just waiting and waiting to be bought, until that fateful day when another doll and two action figures stumbled across his box. They stopped to look at him through the thin sheet of plastic separating Patrick from the world. The little doll's heart sped up. He waved at the three other toys enthusiastically, grateful for some company besides the dim-witted Barbie dolls across the aisle. "Hiya! I'm Patrick! What are you doing out of your packaging?" He asked, cocking his head at the three. The action figures stepped back and let the other doll move forward. Patrick's face flushed. With his dark hair, tan skin, and amber eyes, the stranger was very handsome. 'Far more handsome than me!' Patrick thought to himself. The handsome stranger reached out and tore open the front of Patrick's box, popping the plastic ties off of Patrick's feet. The little doll squeaked, lifting his left foot for the first time in his life. "What're you-" "I'm Pete," the dark-haired doll interrupted. "This is Joe and Andy, and we're here to bust you out." ·
