* {{Squick}}: In-universe, Riley's reaction upon discovering that her emotions are actual people who watch her every gesture, including [[AccidentalPervert changing clothes and showering]]. Unsurprisingly, Disgust, Fear and Anger are at the console at the time. She gets over it rather quickly, but still asks them to look away the next time she changes.

** ''Riley: Recognized''. Riley arrives at Headquarters, getting to know all about the different parts, and messing around with her emotions, but everything changes when she touches the emotion console, illuminating Headquarters and creating not only memories of her stay in her mind world traced with silverlight, but a ''white'' core memory reflecting how she was imitating the other emotions. Fear is certain this is their first true instance of consciousness tampering, but as it was a core memory, it creates a new island that Riley calls Possibility Island. After Riley nods back to regular sleep afterwards, Joy and Sadness converse and agree to each other that they’ll need to talk with Riley about what happened when she ran away last year eventually, setting up an eventual plot point for the fic.

Riley had been having a great new life in San Francisco. She was doing well in school, having fun with hockey, and loved her room now that it was finally decorated. And a happy life for Riley was good for her emotions. Joy, Sadness, Anger, Disgust and Fear had been given good days for a while now too. But one night, everything changed when there was an accident in Headquarters with the special emergency Intercom. Now instead of a “voice at the back of your head” you sometimes get, Riley gets 5!

Riley had been having a great new life in San Francisco. She was doing well in school, having fun with hockey, and loved her room now that it was finally decorated. And a happy life for Riley was good for her emotions. Joy, Sadness, Anger, Disgust and Fear had been given good days for a while now too. But one night, everything changed when there was an accident in Headquarters with the special emergency Intercom. Now instead of a “voice at the back of your head” you sometimes get, Riley gets 5! But will this be a bad thing hearing the voices inside her head, or the beginning of something beautiful for Riley and her emotions?

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11294533 Intercom]] is a ContinuationFic, though not exactly picking up on the same themes as InsideOut had. Instead, it’s a budding friendship piece dealing with Riley’s growing love of the emotions inside herself, while also dealing with the dangers of actually hearing and seeing your emotional thought process.

!!This fanfic goes into these tropes:
* AdultFear: Fear is going through this all the time now that Riley can hear them, wondering if this connection might eventually hurt Riley through amnesia, unconsciousness, or even death!
* AllInTheManual: In universe, Mind Manuals function as The Manual for emotions and any questions they have regarding host-mind interaction.
* AllJustADream: This is what Riley thinks of her first conversation with her emotions due to it being right as she was trying to sleep. Of course, she was wrong.
* BadDreams: Riley was a little disappointed talking with mind workers that they don’t always use bad dreams the same way they use good ones to stimulate Riley’s mind for the next day.
* ContinuationFic: Set after Riley’s formed new islands of personality
* DarkSecret: The emotions when they first introduce themselves to Riley don’t mention the disaster the move was for not just Riley but for them as well. So this secret of how Joy and Sadness got lost hangs over the emotions while still trying to have Riley like them.
* EnsembleCast: Like the movie, there are several lead characters from the main 6, with Fear, Joy and Riley getting extra attention.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Anger might still be a grouch with some NeverMyFault tendencies and a lot of violence, but he still cares about Riley, and even finds amusement in her imitation of him.
* JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind: Through a mix of Lucid Dreaming and turning off the reality filter in Dream Productions, Riley can actually go inside her OWN mind to see all the wonders of her mind world.
* LittleMsAlmighty: Since Riley is essentially the reason behind her mind’s activity, she functions as this whenever she visits the mind world.
* MsExposition: Joy typically takes on this role just like in the film’s intro when describing different parts of Riley’s Headquarters.
* OutOfFocus: As the focus is on Riley and her emotions (well, more than before), Riley’s parents have only gotten 1 scene really to interact with Riley on screen so far.
* ThePowerOfTrust: Riley believes that this will help keep her safe in her own mind. If they could protect her for 12 years, they can protect her in her own mind.
* ReCut: This functions as a cut of sorts for the unused concepts during Inside Out’s conception. Some examples include Riley’s relative size compared with the emotions or Anger’s Time Out corner making appearances when they were excluded in the regular film.
* RealityWarper: Since Riley’s spirit self is basically inside herself when lucid dreaming, this means she can do something called Consciousness Tampering to alter parts of her mind that normally would be more difficult to do. These include running the train of thought while she’s technically sleeping, creating a new kind of memory, and even the potential to change her personality.
* RunningGag: Triple Dent Gum makes a return in this fic as a “generally happy memory”.
* ShoutOut: Pizza Planet makes a return to this Pixar universe. Riley calls it the best pizza in the area, and unfortunately She and Anger got mighty ticked off that it was closed for renovations.
* SlidingScaleOfFateVersusFreeWill: Discussed when the emotions talk about pushing buttons to direct Riley’s actions. Riley for her part even asks how far on the scale they are.
