😜 Meet Fizzwiggle

Fizzwiggle is a charmingly impish automaton with an insatiable curiosity for all things shiny (and slightly crumb-covered). His solid, rectangular body is painted a vibrant metallic gold, hinting at a personality as bright as his finish. His face is a masterpiece of expressive hardware: one eye is a delightful copper gear with a silver center, while the other is a bold silver washer with a brass screw eye, giving him a permanent look of mischievous inquiry. His tiny copper bead nose hovers above a wonderfully squiggly copper wire mouth that seems to be perpetually on the verge of giggling.

Fizzwiggle is crowned with a sophisticated stack of brass gears and a domed top (a very fetching hat!), and he stands proudly on charming gear-shaped feet, ready for his next wobbly adventure. He also sports a subtle hinge arm on one side, perfect for tiny, secret gestures.

⚙️ Origin Story

Fizzwiggle was cobbled together in 1965 by a bored factory worker during a particularly slow shift assembling novelty party poppers. Intended as a mere desk ornament, a spark from a faulty wire brought him to life. His first action was to attempt to 'taste' a discarded paperclip, resulting in his permanent squiggly mouth and a lifelong fascination with small, inedible objects.

💼 Employment History

Current Role: Director of Small Object Surveillance & Enthusiastic Dust Bunny Chaser. (Fizzwiggle's duties include diligently watching any object left unattended, offering silent commentary on the structural integrity of forgotten receipts, and occasionally performing a celebratory wiggle when a new crumb is discovered.)

Previous Role (1970s): Automated Taste Tester for a Bubblegum Factory. (Fired for excessive enthusiasm. Fizzwiggle would attempt to chew every piece of gum, causing his internal mechanisms to become impossibly sticky and his "squiggly mouth" to become even more pronounced. He now prefers less palatable duties, where his enthusiasm causes less industrial disruption.)
