So back on Halloween I watched the FNAF movie, and while I had fun, it did leave something to be desired. So here we go: my award winning rewrite of the FNAF movie to make it actually good and make sense.

Spoilers for the series in general under the cut.

First off, we are embracing the fact that this is an adaptation of a video game series that has a shaky story at best. We are 100% allowed to pick and choose which pieces work. We see some of that in the actual movie what with Vanessa being William Afton's daughter. (At least, unless there's some kinda reveal that happened after I dropped off the series.)

Second, I am totally willing to carve this movie for parts that do work. And one of them that I kept noticing is that the movie is Really Fucking Hesitant to say Mike's full name. Yeah, that was supposed to be foreshadowing that the guy hiring our boy Mike Schmidt recognized his last name on account of he's William Fucking Afton. However, I went into the movie after seeing precisely one trailer and no spoilers besides what I knew about the series already. So I paid attention to how Friggin' NOBODY says Mike's last name until the very end of the movie.

Because the reveal I had been hoping for was that Mike Schmidt was Michael Afton.

And if you build a movie around THAT reveal, it fixes so many problems and removes shit we really don't need. We can remove the little brother character and kill off the little sister instead. It gives Mike a stronger motivation to work at the terrible job that is Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.

So here's how we do it: we make the movie primarily a combination of FNAF 1 and Pizzeria Simulator with elements of Sister Location.

Mike Schmidt is a down on his luck guy, depressed and listless and moving from job to job with no real reason to stick around. No family, just a little token he keeps with him, a half-heart BFF bracelet meant for little girls.

But then he sees a listing in the want ads for the job of night security guard at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, due to close by year's end.

Motivated for the first time in a long time, he quits his job on the spot and answers the ad.

The man who placed the ad, we'll call him Henry (and if you know the games and books you know where I'm going with this), turns him down at first when they meet, says it's an old listing and he's no longer taking applicants "but thank you anyway Mr. ..."

And that's when Henry notices the name, why this young man looks so familiar.

"Mike Schmidt?" he asks to confirm.

Mike nods. "It was Mom's maiden name." It was the first name he could think of when the name Afton was ruined for him. We get this bit at the end of the movie for The Once More With Clarity Reveal.

Henry runs his hand over his beard, good lord what a mess. This isn't what he intended with his ad at all. But if there's anyone living he owes his help to, it's Michael.

So Mike starts working night shift at Freddy's, and UNLIKE the actual movie the animatronics actually TRY to attack him the entire time. This will be the actual bulk of the movie's action, with maybe a few unlucky trespassers so we can get a proper kill count. We get the classic roster from the first game with two big exceptions, the first being the Puppet.

Because while Mike tries finding clues about his missing younger sister in the pizzeria, one night he slips up and the Puppet is set to attack him, oh no! Mike throws his hands up to protect his face.

And that's when the Puppet sees the BFF bracelet. And stops. Because he has the matching bracelet. And Mike isn't sure why at first until the Puppet leads a wary Mike to a storage room he hadn't checked yet, full of cleaning supplies and endoskeletons and our other animatronic reveal: Circus Baby.

And the Puppet gets Baby to tell her story of the day she abducted and killed Mike's sister. She points to the BFF bracelet and says, "You have my bracelet."

And Mike is brought to tears by all that is revealed: his sister's death, how the souls of his father's victims are trapped possessing the animatronics, and the terrible realization that they had been attacking him because he looks like their killer, his father.

But then we get our big climax! William Afton returns to his pizzeria, which was Henry's original plan all along. Afton dons his Spring Bonnie suit so the animatronics don't recognize him. Henry goes to the pizzeria as well, his goal of trapping his old business partner Afton in sight but concerned for Michael. With everyone trapped inside, Henry calls Michael on the landline and tells him what's going on, tells him to try to get out because he's setting the place on fire and ending this once and for all. And Mike goes, "No, I'll see this through to the end. Tell me where to go to get the gas going, you light it up."

And now Mike has to evade his father long enough to burn it all down, and there's a big father son confrontation where Michael just reads his father for the filth he is, buying time for Henry to finish this.

And when he does, Henry gives his speech from the end of Pizzeria Simulator over the restaurant pa system. When he speaks to the spirit of his daughter, we cut to the Puppet, turning his head up so the girl possessing him can hear her father. Quick little flashback of the girls playing together, swinging their joined hands together with their matching BFF bracelets clinking.

And though Afton tries to retreat, Mike throws him in the restaurant's safe room, holding the door in grim victory as the flames lick at him.

A bittersweet ending, but a satisfying one.

And then, after the credits, we have a flashforward. The crew putting together the horror attraction Fazbear Frights has found the safe room in the charred remains of the restaurant, and they have salvaged the Spring Bonnie inside. Sequel hook!!

So yeah, that's my pitch for the FNAF movie I think we should have gotten. Thoughts?

Tagged by @tum-tigger in the '9 people you'd like to get to know better' game - thanks bestie! 8'D

1. Top 3 ships: So. This is hard to answer atm. Bc the only food my brainworms want lately is Cheongsan/Gwinam AoUAD, and absolutely nothing else. Also in the rankings recently: Batarou OPM and SouAi Free!, strangely enough. Could list endless honorable mentions like HisoIllu and Nashuu HxH, Josuyasu and BruAbba JJBA, Kuwameshi YYH, etc. etc., but my brain is hard to grab these days

2. First ship: I've often mistakenly answered BruAbba JJBA for this, bc they're the first ship that dragged me around by the hair and they single-handedly got me back into writing - BUT my first ever ship was actually LietPol Hetalia.

3. Last song: Nocturnal animals by ZICO feat. Zior Park.......genuinely cannot get over how well their voices go together...........need to lie on the floor about it....

4. Last movie: It was an Alvin and the Chipmunks Halloween special. Super scary stuff. Y'know.

5. Currently reading: Picked up the Alice in Borderland manga the other day, got one chapter deep, so far. :') ...Tbh I've got an entire stack of books waiting that I bought recently bc I'm trying to get back into reading, but I'm not in the middle of anything atm, shamefully enough

6. Currently watching: Miraculous Brothers and also Happy Ending Romance. A more serious drama and a shorter, lighter one, to balance out, 8'D. And bc I often run out of time after work/before bed for hour-long eps. Miraculous Brothers is like...shockingly good so far, a real fun ride, I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I am. Only about halfway through, so we'll see what happens. Happy Ending Romance, tho. I'm having fun. But also. Leo VIXX plays the role of unsavory, possessive ex, so every time he's onscreen my brain shuts down and goes "Wow. Pretty." on a loop, and then every time he spouts some toxic bullshit to the sad-eyed protag, I am like why is such a soothing melodic voice saying such harsh things....who cast him for this......genius stuff..... I am also sloooowly rewatching AoUAD. Ofc.

7. Currently consuming: WATER!!!!

8. Currently craving: Some motivation/inspiration/energy/time to write. Emotional stability and Flamin' Hot Funyuns also.

Gonna tag @fandork, @anticiajk, and @eq-kou, if any of you want! (No pressure ofc,,,)

#if any kp*p stans stumble across this post via the search function please carry on. I mean no offense by anything I've said.#riley words

Again a Portrait of Alicia.

Perhaps it will saw familiar for one or the other? I made my sketches for the ACEO Cards digitally and I thought: "Why not use the sketches for a few digital exercises? They are already there!” I won't do them all again digitally, but I'll do a few. We'll see which ones.

And sure, the start make Alicia.

I am just in the mood to draw small pictures to different motives and the like. A few can be found on my main blog "Waves-Art-Blog".

And it was clear that also times an Asura is drawn. Actually, I wanted to take my Nora but after 3 sketches I have Nora now postponed once. So I have taken my Asurasona Wave.

It's just a simple little picture, but it was really fun to paint it. And surely some more pictures will follow. I hope with the time I also learn to make better photos. It doesn't work the way I want it and image post-processing doesn't work that way either. qwq I try my best.

The Lady of the Ruby~

It’s me again! Hello o/

Because so many people are hyping this Magical Girl/Boy outfit and painting pictures of it, I'm also in the mood again to paint something for the Magical Girl/Boy AU of friends and me.

So, here is Alicia in the Magical Girl/Boy AU.

I actually planned this painting as a traditional painting that I wanted to do with Aqaurell. I had painted the sketch digitally in the stream. I have already transferred this picture to watercolour paper, but I decided to paint this picture digitally as well. And here is the digital version, the traditional version will surely look different. Let's see how it will look in the end, I will upload it 100%.

Of course, there is also a speedpaint video here, which will be uploaded in the next few days. 🔹 Program & Material(s): 🔹 Clip Studio Paint

well... I don’t know what I can tell? ^^’

Maybe some can remember Toxx? My Inquest Krewe boss? Yep, here he is again. Similar to the picture I painted at the beginning of the year, but different.

And maybe I have some Zuko feelings with this picture? From Avatar? or rather Fire Nation feelings? Maybe? I have watching the two series the last two weeks and it might have come in a bit with? Possibly.

Anyway, I had my fun and I think you can see Toxx is not nice and you should be careful not to mess with him. He has not without reason his title "Destroyer". XD

I haven't painted chibis for a long time and I also needed some new overlay for my streams. And so it came that I painted my Asurasona as a chibi. Of course, there is this version without staff, because not long Halloween is more.
