Here are some semi officially art pieces of Miko’s Animatronic design! Not fully design but what you all will most likely expect
1. Drawn by my friend, who drew her as how her animatronic will ACTUALLY look
2. Drawn by me, this is what Miko first looks like when Jack and Raf find her. She was damaged, the first image is while they’re fixing her up as a way to try and apologize (she already forgave them before they even started to fix her)
3. Drawn by another friend, this is what Miko would look like if they find a way to give her some sort of semi holoform so she doesn’t look as robotic

26 ASK! :DDDD🎉🎉🎉
Tumblr media
I do not.. :/ Sorry!
Tumblr media
@mason-gaylord
:DDD Thank you!! ☕ I'm hanging in there as best I can <:) Thank you for the well wishes. I hope the same for you!
Tumblr media
@boxofcreampuffs (SKJAJD HORSE XDDDD)
Tumblr media
AAAAA THANK YOUU SO MUCH!!! THATS SO SWEET!! I PLAN TO GET BACK AROUND TO BOTH FANDOMS SOMETIME SOON AFTER MY COMIC IS DONE!!💖💖💖💖💖
Tumblr media
@chaotic-public-menace (Post in question)
<XD While that is true, this comic is way overdue. Its taken me some weeks to make and it should have been up like a month ago! I just wanna get it done already so I'm trying to not get distracted by FNAF and other drawing ideas-

@ditzyclown
I haven't actually decided on whether or not the other Addison's were good or bad guys. This would change their reaction to seeing Spamton.
I had this idea that Spamton's world is a lot like Seam and Jevil's. Its more cruel and wicked than the original Deltarune.. And Spamton might not have been particularly close with the other Addison's.. They had no time for bonds or relationships. It was a dog eat dog world, every man for himself.
Branching off of that, one idea I had was the other Addison's had become jealous of Spamton's success and tried to kill him by pushing him into the acid pools.. Only for Spamton to survive and reemerge as a horrific looking creature..
If I go with the evil Addison story.. some Addison's might run away in fear just because of how horrific Spamton looks. Though some might deliberately abandon him becuase they hated him/were jealous of him and felt like he deserves this.
If I go with a story where the other Addison's weren't responsible for the acid fall.. they might still run away in fear. Seeing this horrible beast.. not realizing its one of their own.
Tumblr media
@bunny-coffee
XD No problem! Soft boi Gregory is best Gregory!
Tumblr media
@beryl-shade
In my AU, none of the other Glamrock's know that Gregory exists. But if they did, maybe Roxy would envy it a bit..? Having someone look up to Freddy and not her might hurt her ego a bit.. :(
Tumblr media
@elegysonnet
Oh no no, his top and bottom row of teeth are separate. Like these pictures here show,
Tumblr media
(Post in question for the pictures)
The top row of teeth all fused together and became one big cracked tooth. And the bottom row did the same. But the two rows are separate and he can still open his mouth.
To think that if while he was initially melting, he had kept his mouth closed? His teeth would have melted together and he wouldn't be able to eat anything easily.. if at all.
Tumblr media
Please don't draw fanart of any of my stuff. There are no exceptions.
(Also thank you💖)

@crimson-thinker
I imagine that Bonnie Bowl might have a flashlight.? And Pirates cove would have a box of confiscated Bon-cams XD
I don't really remember what the other collectables were in the game so I don't really have a reference to go off of..
Buuuut,,, maybe from Bonnie bowl you could also get one of Bonnies signature bowling balls? A purple bowling ball with a rabbit ears print on it somewhere.
And for Pirates Cove perhaps a cheap pirate captains hat? I had this idea that there's 100s of these cheap captain hats that Foxy gives away to the kids every day. So maybe that could be a collectable too? :00
Tumblr media
@ninaandthegames
XD Once I'm done with this project that will be me. Posting the most painful angst I can conjure up
Tumblr media
I have not. But something tells me its about Hares/Rabbits XDD
Tumblr media
@randox-talore
Yeah, me and some friends theorized about that. We thought "Maybe Vanessa or William is taking care of the animatronics and keeping them clean"
But even if they were, you cant help certain wears and tears. They would look noticeably worn, stained, torn in some places and a bit brittle in others after so many years of just existing.
They also missed out on a lot of scares by making them pristine. Bonnie's face could have had a crack/split down the side. "Oh yeah that's been there for a while, its fine" Only for it to fall of later in the movie revealing these piercing red eyes and a Childs head lodged in Bonnie's face/jaw.
Or Chica could have her beak come off or dangle down and reveal colorful wires hanging down.. and.. is that a childs arm.?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Post in question)
Oh yeah, he'd be scared. Even the Captain is spooked in that AU XD
Tumblr media
@kaiserdarken (WAAA SORRY FOR ANSWERING SO LATE! I was originally going to draw something as a response to this but I never got around to it and it got burriedddd.. my apologies. Better late than never I suppose-)
I do celebrate Halloween, which means Bibi and Jangles would as well XD For Halloween I like to dress up in some way and carve pumpkins. Although I forgot to carve any this year and didn't have a good opportunity to dress up unfortunately-
I can see Bibi wanting to dress up and carve pumpkins too. But he might not actually be strong enough to puncture a pumpkin to carve it <XD He'd need some help-
Jangles would just eat all of the candy. Plus pumpkin pie and more candy-
Tumblr media
(Again one of those asks I was going to respond to with a drawing but never got around to ittttt.. I'm sorry-)
Its been so long since you sent this I cant actually remember what it was referring to.💀 IM SO SORRY! Its still funny though! <XDD
Tumblr media
(Another ask I was going to respond to with a comic- sorry for the lateness!)
Thank you so much! And yeah, "Jangles looks like Papyrus," I get that a lot <XD
Tumblr media
(Yet another late ask that was meant to have a drawing attached😭 Sorry!)
(Bibi sweating profusely) "PLEASE do not die for me- I prefer you were alive--"
Tumblr media
@minnesotamedic186 (ANOTHER late ask meant to have its own post but I got lazy😭💔Sorry!)
The basic idea for my Kirby AU is that I took the other metaknight's and added them to the Kirby Right back at Ya universe :00 I cant remember what info I shared before because this ask was sent so long ago.. but I'll just recap Axe Knights story because it has the most detail!
Axe Knight was Metaknight's first follower, and best friend. He was with Metaknight from the very beginning. They became star warriors together when they were both a bit young. Axe Knight truly believed in Metaknight. He saw greatness in his friend, he saw a true hero. And he truly believed Metaknight was going to end this war and save the world. Its because of this adoration and belief, that Axe Knight devoted himself to Metaknight and proclaimed himself to be his first follower.
It was not too long after when tragedy struck. A battle broke out and Axe knight sacrificed himself to protect Metaknight. As he lay on the ground, dying from his sacrifice.. he saw Metaknight too laying on the ground nearby. Unmoving, and in a pool of his own blood. Axe knight died with his heart twisted in grief. Thinking that his sacrifice had failed. And that his best friend had died.
Metaknight of course survived, and Axe Knights sacrifice was the only thing that saved him. But Axe Knight didn't know that before he died. Metaknight buried his best friend and left that planet in grief. Forever changed by this loss..
But Axe Knight.. wasn't totally gone. Axe died grieving, thinking that this world lost a great warrior; Metaknight. Thinking that it was so cruel Metaknight didn't get to live longer. To travel the universe and save lives. They were robbed of a hero. Because of Axe Knights failure. His soul was so disturbed that it couldn't move on. He later crawled out of his grave, with a fiery determination to make things right. To go out there and save as many lives as possible. To protect anyone he can and to help all who need him. Because that's what Metaknight would have done.
Eventually after years of blindly wandering the universe.. battling monsters and saving innocents.. he crosses paths with dreamland. He finds himself in a little town full of Cappys.. And then he runs in to a familiar face...
Tumblr media
(ANOTHER ASK THAT WAS MEANT TO HAVE A DRAWING RESPONSE IM SORRY-)
I was going to draw a comic of Jangles making a vlog style video. "Hey guys, welcome to pranking with Jangles. Today I'm gonna prank Bibi by throwing this cheese slice at his face!"
He sneaks up behind Bibi who is sitting on a beanbag and reading or something- "Hey Bibi" He turns around
Jangles throws the cheese slice and it completely misses and just splats on the ground. "Oh oops"
Bibi: "????"
Tumblr media
@uay778 (The last ask that I was going to draw something for and never got around to. So sorry!)
I was going to draw a comic to this where I replace the bandages with clean, fresh ones. But then they immediately get soaked with blood again XDD Its just a part of my design!

isthefnafmovieout reviews the fnaf movie (SPOILERS)
Pre-movie thoughts (written 10/25):
I get to see it a day early! YAY!
I might have hyped this movie up in my brain a little too much, because I'm SUPER anxious.
The polarizing reviews i was seeing throughout the day were definitely a little nerve wracking! Lots of good and bad reviews, lots of weird contridicting statements. I saw lots of people complaining about the lore being "wrong" or whatever but... Eh. It has already been established that this movie won't have the same lore as the games, so I won't mind any lore changes. They're like the Silver Eyes books, in their own seperate canon but with similarities to the games.
Overall Im keeping my hopes reasonably high. Horror films and video game adaptations tend to get a bad wrap from even the fairest critics. I'm a die-heard fnaf fan, have been for all 9 years of its existence. If Dawko loves it then I will love it I think 🫡
Okay, now with that out of the way...
Spoiler free review, posted on my letterboxd:
Tumblr media
Post-movie thoughts (written 10/26):
The way they incorporated Mike's dream sequences into the narrative was really interesting, how he tries to use his dreams to find out who took his brother. He and Abby were really sweet :) I like how their relationship drives the plot along, with how they befriend Abby but only as a front because they want her to "be like them," and how Mike is caught up in the past and realizes that he needs to focus on protecting Abby, not bringing his brother back. Its surprisingly emotional, i really resonated with their story. Josh Hutcherson and Piper Rubio both did well!
It's basically everything I expected, and I liked it! I think it's story was good, with its focus on childhood innocence.
Vanessa is great too! Different from her game counterpart, but thats okay! And the twist that she's actually William aftons daughter? Holy shit I gasped like I was watching a soap. Thats so interesting!! I loved how she just FELT suspicious. I know it's very different from the game lore, but I expected the movie to be, and I liked what they did! I got chills when Vanessa showed the picture of her and William to Mike and you could see her holding the plane that Mike's brother used to have.... my dad thought that was the creepiest part. Speaking of william btw...
Matthew Lillard, man. wow. What a great William Afton. They do some subtle implications that hes William in the beginning and if i didnt know it was him already i would've been surprised. He hams it up like he did with Stu Macher and it's great! I wish he was in it a little more, and they expanded a little more on Williams character through Vanessa, but yeah, he was good! I hope to see more of him in any sequels!
I wish the animatronics showed up a little more, thats probably my biggest critique or whatever. But they are so well made and cute. I liked how they befriended Abby, and that they rlly honed in on the animatronics being possessed by kids and that their violence is from William Aftons influence. I wish they went more into depth about how William influenced them though, and why it's all the pictures drawn of what happened that control their vision of what happened. What we did get from them though was so cool! Jim Henson did so well with these guys, they're so cute yet can be so scary.
The kills were pretty tame on the surface, as I expected, but some of the implications were quite disturbing to a point where it didn't rlly take away from it for me. Especially Max's, it gave me a "Ada in the laser room in the re4 seperate ways remake" vibes. Same with the security guards death to the faz-trap in the beginning.
There were some pacing issues, theyve definitely cut some things i wouldve liked to see, there was some goofiness (that fort making scene made me laugh so hard im sorry, it was cute though), and some story elements that needed a touch more expanding upon, but this movie was still really fun! For non-fans, honestly i dont know how they'reresponding as a whole besides those really weird reviews im seeing on rotten tomatoes and such, but I saw it with my dad, who knew very little going into it, and he liked it, especially the story with the missing kids! For fans... well, If you like fnaf, are are willing to forgive some lore changes for the sake of telling a coherent story, then you'll love it!
Also why was Matpat there lol. isthefnafmovieout, out. See you on the flipside.

Michael Afton is NOT Mike Schmidt and Fritz Smith: The Counter Argument
This is a fun fun counter argument to a post made by @jeremyslemons about Michael not being Mike Schmidt and Fritz Smith and they have made clever argument so if you ever have time— check them out! They do commissions, make theories and their blog hones back to the old days the FNAF fandom where FANON reigned king and back when Purple Guy was still Vincent to most!
Now to the counter argument! How will I make it? Well it’s simple really, I’m only delivering my counterpoints so that you, the ever so curious observer can get the full context by looking at the @jeremyslemons post down below! If at any point I openly talk about a certain part, bring in a certain snippet— It will be in quotations and or paraphrased.
Now let’s do this!
Counterpoint 1
The Odor— one of the many evidences that most people use to prove Michael is Fritz and Mike but @jeremyslemons does put up a hefty argument— saying that the smell could’ve came from the animatronics which granted— it could have been and I do agree that the odor argument is the weakest part of the bunch when it comes to evidence. The only argument I pretty much have for this one is how do both Mike and Fritz have the knowledge on HOW to tamper with the animatronics and modify their AI? This implies that they both have prior knowledge in animatronic engineering— Which is not easy to learn unless they have done it before and considering Michael’s history as a technician, it could have easily been him. Not everyone is experienced in engineering like Michael, Henry or William, especially if you’re considering a small town in Utah— William would’ve been in hiding because he just committed murder in 87. Henry wouldn’t have done it because he most likely was still running the company, he would’ve been recognized— not only that, trying to do it undercover isn’t really his style—they were his robots after all. He could’ve just had some people or go in himself to see what was wrong or try to sniff out the issue— which only leaves Michael, who has an ample reason why he would to hide his identity and he has prior knowledge on how to work on an animatronic— since he worked as a technician in sister location.
Now you may say this part of the argument is pretty weak but bare with me, I got some heavy hitters 😂
Counterpoint 2
In @jeremyslemons post; there was this counter claim that says the following;
“Michael chose the name Mike since baby liked it. And Schmidt is his mom's last name.”
This I heavily disagree upon— because Schmidt has never been proven to be his mother’s maiden name. I mean if we go with the theory of him being Fritz; wouldn’t Smith be as equally valid? No. It’s like saying “Dave Miller derived from William’s middle name or was the name of his mom or dad” which essentially makes me believe that part was overshot when it comes to a counterpoint. Alias’ exist and not all of them have to be connected to your past but occasionally some Alia’s’ do include some variation of your name at some points especially if that name is very common— now that might be me shooting my own foot when it comes to this counterpoint, saying that Michael is a common name but that’s where I’ll ask for you to draw your own conclusion! Besides I still have more notes on this subject.
Now to the other half; Michael didn’t use the name Mike because baby liked it— Michael always used that name EVEN BEFORE HE WAS SCOOPED because it was in fact his name. Mike is a derivative of Michael— like @jeremyslemons said— a nickname for the name, Michael and I can tell you why—
Exhibit A) Eggs Benedict
Tumblr media
As you can see here, there is this little piece of tape on Handunit that says “Mike”
You wouldn’t think much of it really— So let me put this in perspective;
Michael goes to work, was welcomed by hand unit , tries to type his name into said hand unit (you can even see it in the game, the amount of dots that were typed in equal up to the amount of letters that are in the name MICHAEL; which is 7 characters) but it glitches out and calls him a breakfast food. So considering that, he most likely wrote Mike, which is a derivative of his name and placed it on hand unit. Now you might be wondering “Why is it there before he types his name?”
Simple, Scott probably didn’t want to make another asset of hand unit without the tape and not only that; probably didn’t think of it. Now you can always headcanon that Michael knew of the glitchiness of HU but that’s something you can do on your own time
Exhibit B) The Logbook
Now this may not prove Michael is Fritz Smith but it is the most damning when it comes to him being Mike Schmidt and here’s my reasoning why—
Let’s start with the fact that it’s a Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza Security Logbook which is supposed to be issued to a security guard at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza and considering the animatronics on the cover— you can assume that it’s around the FNAF 1 era (around the 90’s).
Tumblr media
In the book, you’d find that it was previously owned by Mike— whether it was owned by Mike Schmidt or Michael Afton— it becomes abundantly clear when you open it up and find sketches of both Exotic Butters and The Cash Basket.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In @jeremyslemons original post, they said that we know that Michael was the person you play in SL and FFPS (It’s debatable in 3) but neither of those two games— Michael was a security guard!
He was a late night technician in FNAF SL and a Manager in FFPS which means he could’ve been a security guard at one point and with my previous assumption— he was probably a security guard around the 90’s.
Now here’s my crème de la crème— my nail that puts it in the coffin for Michael being at least Mike Schmidt.
In the logbook— you also seem to notice that Michael writes with a red pen— it’s like his trademark in the logbook, his calling card, it’s basically what separates him from the supposed invisible sentences from Cassidy—
Then I thought—
“Where else have we seen red ink being used?”
Tumblr media
then I remembered FNAF 1’s beginning screen before night 1, a giant red circle seemingly made by a pen surrounding a job listing for Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. That was the final thing for me that cemented that Michael was in fact Mike Schmidt. Fritz is still debatable but for Mike— his fate has been sealed really as Michael’s Alias. You can say that yeah, anyone can use red pen but it is an interesting detail for both characters to use a red pen and that’s for you to decide and make your own conclusion!
Counterpoint 3
Why did Mike stay the full week?
You have to think of his motive—
Like I know motives vary— ranging from Jeremy to Phone Guy to Gregory— they all vary. Jeremy was probably desperate for the money and once he got the chance to do the dayshift? He took it
Phone Guy was probably a week away from his retirement or had put in his two week notice. He probably was looking forward to it but died before he could.
Now Michael his motive, was looking for his father, finding answers— he was curious on why he was still alive, he was curious where his father went, he was probably even curious on why the animatronics were so aggressive.
Now @jeremyslemons believes Mike Schmidt’s motive is unknown—It could’ve been for the thrill, it could’ve been for the morbid curiosity and yes, Phone Guy did say check the suits in the back and well regardless of whether he is Michael or not— Mike would’ve still checked. That’s why I think Michael exists— as the answer to that unknown motive. The answer that has been waiting to be developed for years until sister location came out. So once again I would like to ask draw your own conclusion.
Granted, Phone Guy was there longer— saying that he “worked in that office before you and that he’s finishing his last week”
This is more of a thought than a claim, but did we actually know when those messages were recorded?— granted it could’ve been a week or so before but it could’ve been like a month before, two months before, a year even— and Fazbear Entertainment could’ve just used those as protocol to train employees— neglecting the fact that it blatantly has mechanical homicide by night 4. All we could’ve known there were probably more guards before Mike and those guys were either killed or left once they saw homicidal teddy bears. Besides if Phone Guy were killed a week before Mike took the job— wouldn’t the dayshift crew have found him already? I mean the dayshift people aren’t the corporate overlords of Freddy’s who wish to cover everything up, they are normal people who were hired— like any of them could of called the cops, Phone Guy’s Body could have been removed and that’s why personally I personally believe he died at least a decent bit before Mike came in to take his place because if he did die a week apart from Mike— there would’ve been a police presence, an active investigation, Phone Guy’s tapes would’ve been confiscated and yes I did say tapes because during the early 90’s— answering machines were still a thing— they didn’t really go out of style until the late 90’s and considering how cheap Fazbear Entertainment is— they probably used an answering machine for the phones (and that’s just a personal headcanon) . Anyways I digress— everything would’ve been taken away unless Fazbear were able to pull some strings or were able to get it back after the investigation went nowhere. Either way, it’s just a thought.
But yeah that’s about it.
So in conclusion….
I do believe Michael is Mike Schmidt but I do see it being debatable upon him being Fritz mostly due to the lack of evidence of Mike being Fritz unless you try to implement other theories that are just as shaky.
Either way it’s a just a theory—
A GAAAAAME THEOR-
Tumblr media
(support @jeremyslemons, they really do make good art 😩✨)

Monty: Congratulations Candy for 8 years since your first game.
Candy: Well thank you. 8 years… My series really got further that I expected. Thanks to the Fanverse.
Popgoes: To think your series probably only exist because someone stole you to use for their crappy fan game.
Candy: Heh. That’s true.
Monty: Wait what do you mean by stolen?
Candy: Huh! Did I never told you how my series was created?
Monty: No.
Candy: Well you better prepare yourself because it isn’t like how others fan games were created.
It all started some time after Fnaf 2 but before Fnaf 3 was announced. My creator Emil Macko, was very good at creating models, so good that he was able to recreate some Toy animatronics from scratch. But one day he created a model for a Fnaf oc that he created, that OC was me Candy the Cat and then he posted a picture of me to the internet. Since Emil models were so good a lot of Fnaf fans believe that I was a real animatronics in Fnaf 2 and a shadow on the Prize Corner was me hiding in the shadows, but in reality was just a shadow of 3 balloons that looked kinda like a cat.
But around that time a guy made a fangame and he called it Fnaf 3, which kinda made Scott kinda mad because people were believing that this fan game was the real Fnaf 3. Then Scott said to this guy “Change the name of this fan game or I will put this Fan game down”, so the creator changed the name of the game to “Return to Freddy’s”. But this fan game was really bad, it was a mixture of Fnaf 1 and Fnaf 2 which used PNG’s of the characters and locations, stolen code from Fnaf 1 and 2 (which is illegal) and a stolen fan character that was renamed to Sugar and was turned into a girl… that fan character was me.
Monty: What
Candy: And it was literally the pictures that my creator posted on the internet of me slapped in Fnaf 1 and 2 cameras and the jumpscare was my face photoshopped to Toy Bonnie jumpscare. After that my creator found out that his character was stolen for a fangame. And he learned that because there were people that thought that my creator stole me from this guy that made that fangame. My creator tried to ask the fan game creator to remove me from the game, but the creator of the fan game was kinda of a jerk with a big ego (the guy in one of the updates for the fan game changed a sprite name in the game files to “Emil is a bitch”) so he refused. My creator was so mad that he decided to make a fangame about me to prove that he was my creator and that he could create a better fangame that this loser. And now I’m getting my official merchandise and the “Return to Freddy’s” series being dead for years and the creator of that fan game series did some things that ruined his reputation.
Monty: Wow, that’s probably the best story to why a fangame was created that I ever heard.
Candy: Thanks… But despite that… I kinda happy that I was stolen… Because if I wasn’t… I probably wouldn’t be here right now.
Monty: Like I’m happy that people hated Chippers… Because I wouldn’t be here if people weren’t to harsh on that game.
Oh my God. That..oh my God.

i've wound up watching videos on fnaf while working bc youtube keeps shoving them to my face and it's got me to reminisce on the first game and ponder why it appealed to me so much and why it still captivates a part of my brain on occasion. i mean it's nothing new but i think it comes down to how vague everything about the "lore" was, it didn't try to explain anything and the more the series tried to make the individual threads make sense the more tangled and stale they became. i've listened to enough lore videos to know it's all a huge mess by now and i think the original spark got lost with it.
like im gonna be real i enjoy haunted robots as a concept, i Adore haunted technology and whatever supernatural elements its existence implies in the context of the world it exists in, and even still i find this charm in how the original fnaf presented the idea. it's just a little dingy pizzeria on the verge of closure with a couple colorful guys whose designs look just off enough to make you uncomfortable. you find bits and pieces of implied events scattered in newspapers and the phone calls you receive. you aren't given the full picture of the events, and that's what makes it work so well; you don't know what's going on, why you keep coming back, why you're being hunted down, you don't know who the dead kids are and what exactly happened to them (hell you might not even find out about them). it's just enough information to get you to speculate and that was the real hook of it. i think it started to get lost by the second game already, but everything after the 4th one just made it escalate faster.
this is all a very long-winded way of admitting that i'd like to find a way to explore something like haunted animatronics in my own work but i don't really have an idea of how to go about it without repeating what's already been done

So I finally decided to post something about my own fnaf AU that I’m going to call the ‘One Story AU’. The name is a reference to one of the blocks of texts that was over a fnaf world poster that said ‘Four games, One story’.
I didn’t put any color since this is traditional art and drawing color on my drawings on paper makes me VERY dissatisfied, but hey their colors are already shown in game. The drawing of CC crying? His colors are the same as his sprite in fnaf 4. The one where he has a bite mark on his head? His colors are the same as the crying child from the S.A.V.E. H.I.M. mini game from fnaf 2. The Marionette? Y’all already know his colors
For me personally, the story fnaf was telling ended after the 4th game, everything after got WAY to complicated so for my AU everything that was revealed, confirmed, or included after fnaf 4 is NOT canon in my AU and nothing after the first 4 games will be mentioned or included.
That means I’m free to use the crying child as the soul that’s possessing the Marionette since Charlie does not exist in this AU. I will talk more about my AU in future posts because I feel like I’ve already talked long enough about the basic premise of my AU in this post when it’s supposed to be about the Crying Child, his story, and what role he plays in this AU
————————
The Crying Child, named Chris, was a very shy and sensitive child who was quite literally afraid of his own shadow. Before a certain ‘incident’ he was already pretty shy and cautious but after the ‘incident’ happened it made him the way he was in fnaf 4. Constantly crying, afraid of the animatronics, having terrible night terrors, VERY easy to scare, etc…
That type of behavior from him continued until his 8th birthday when his brother and his friends decided to pull a very cruel ‘prank’ on him which resulted in his frontal lobe becoming severely damaged and putting Chris in a coma for a few months.
Since the frontal lobe is responsible for many things such as social interaction, controlling responses, emotions, attention, memory and other things Chris became a husk of the child he once was when he woke up from his coma because of how damaged his frontal lobe became after the bite. Chris was no longer able to express much of any emotion, he had trouble remembering many things but more so important people and moments in his life, and his attention span was very small
What happened to him at FredBears on his birthday was one of the many things he forgot about so when he rediscovered the FredBears franchise he wanted to go back to it cause he was curious. Unfortunately for Chris, there was a ban on him from ever entering any FredBears locations due to Chris bringing ‘negative attention’ towards FredBears because of the Chomp of ‘83.
Corporate pigs really blamed a child for staining their ‘family friendly’ franchise/reputation and opted to ban him from ‘getting into anymore trouble on their property’
After immediately being turned away, Chris just…stood in front of the restaurant watching as the Freddy animatronic in the new FredBears diner give cake to the other children
Chris was focusing so much on what was going inside the restaurant that he didn’t notice a man pulling up behind him and sneaking up on him until hands were around his neck and suffocating him.
When Chris died he refused to move on due to being extremely angry and dissatisfied with his early death so his soul went on to posses the Marionette. A newly made animatronic at the time that was hidden in the new FredBears diner/restaurant for being ‘too creepy’ for the kids
After becoming the Marionette, he tried keeping an eye out for anyone shady that may be around so he could make them suspects of his murder (Chris hadn’t had the chance to get a good look at his killer while he was being chocked to death) however, he wasn’t being as thorough as he had hoped since purple guy managed to kill three different sets of five children in the years 1985, 1987, and 1992. The second set of murders was the one where he finally managed to identify the killer but unfortunately Purple Guy would escape him and the others in 1987 and again one final time in 1992.
During the years, Chris has maintained a ‘leaders position’ of sorts, due to being one of the oldest ghosts. He (and the shadows) helped the other kids get used to their ghostly forms, taught them how to properly possess their animatronics, and does his best to motivate them.

Okay finishing it up and adding two more @moon42sstuff
Patchwork is a michael afton got put in springtrap instead of william putting it on willingly. Basically he destroyed those animatronics after the scooper in hope that it would free their spirits. It uh. They thought he was william and did not realize their mistake untill a week later when they finally let the guy speak and by then it was way too late to save him from springlock failure. Oops. Fazbear frights crew of scott, ben and melissa find him and after shenigans fix him up so he no longer looks like a corpse in a springlock suit. Just looks like a low quality fursuit that smells like it hasn’t been washed in a week. Its washed daily but the corpse still smells ya know. They have to change the cloth a lot.
Tumblr media
Next we got ceo. Basically he works similarly to remnant battery, when he realized the fire wasn’t working on him he went and dragged henry out, they checked over and it had looked like it worked they found the remains of everything so now they’re the ceos of fazbear entertainment agaun, and build the pizzaplex. One of them is much more into the pizzaplex’s vibes then the other. Yes i designed them while listening to that mashup.
Tumblr media
Okay now for the two i missed on the graph.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This one is a michael gets bit instead of evan (the name i chose for crying child) because evan had the idea to do it to him first bc it would be funny. It was funny to michael, not to anyone else. Michael fucking died evan kinds takes cqnnon michael’s place but gets the secret ending of sl instead of being scooped. Its fine he and ennard come to a agreement they’re friends now.
And finally grimm foxy is michael theory.
I uh. Love this one ill both send the images and. And paste that theory. Ill put it under the cut because thats the last thing :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Curse of the dreadbear, dreadbear is cassidy’s form
Grim foxy((on fire nightmare foxy)) is michael.
Henry being glamrock freddy would come around the exact way michael would
Henry being glamrock freddy would come around the exact way michael would
And you can pull a fact if william was the one who wore bonnie, henry probably wore freddy. So that parallel
And the not continuing to fail a child angle, can still be achived because henry was gone for years, and only shower up in fnaf 6.
Sir where the fuck where you, michael was the one cleaning everything up after his dad where rhe fUCK
Anyway
Fnaf 4 while we’re here
Obviously michael vibes with foxy, the foxy mask and such.
And the guilt of tormenting evan as that even if he was forgiven in fnaf 3
Anyway while fnaf 4
The angle of there being two nightmare fredbears
One is nightmare fredbear. That symbolizes evan
And the only other animatronic with a brain in its deisgn besides fredbear.
Is nightmare.
The other soul in fredbear. So in fnaf vs curse of the dreadbear
Who are the two in the death screen.
Dreadbear. And grim foxy.
Whose lacking in the princess quest three game in the fnaf vr section in security breach
Dreadbear, because thats cassidy/gregory teaming up
Michael, is trying to once again stop someone from getting to the mask.
Back into security beach
The afton ending.
Which room do we end up in the pizzeria
Not michael’s office.
We end up in a office, with the controls to set the building on fire.
Who would have that? Henry.
Where does glamrock freddy seem to realize hes dead? That office.
And you can still have the “glamrock freddy is making up his failures in a past life by helping gregory”
Because again
Where the FUCK was henry
Between the bite of 83
To the pizzeria simulator Also helped along with grim foxy getting more frantic the more keys you collect
He knows what will happen if you get that mask, he does not want that to happen
But he’s constricted to how the game works, he can’t actually stop you.
Again it explains why dreadbear is on the death screen, but grimm foxy is behind you, behind a gate.
He’s there, wether freddy’s tries to bury michael’a existence or not. He pops up anyway.
And again, the dreadbear and nightmare link.
They’re the only two animatronics with brain’s explicitly shown jn them
And this explains why
And explains nightmare’s entire existence
Golden nightmare is crying child /evan
Nightmare is cassidy
The vengeful spirit, who will make William’s life and death a nightmare.
These two would ALSO explain all of the fnar four refrences in curse of the dreadbear dlc!
Why the bite of 83 is brought up again
Why the house is on the hill. Why we bring it up again at all
Because while crying child is resting
The others involved are not.
Michael still feels guilt, still needs to fix it. He needs to make sure his family doesn’t hurt anyone else
And cassidy is still angry
A replication of william was created that he escaped into
And cassidy is pissed at that, he does not deserve to come back, it doesn’t matter if he always comes back, he will regret it and suffer more every time he does
She doesn’t care who gets in her way, so might as well help her.
You could probably use the creating dreadbear minigame, as a parralel to william experimenting on cassidy. As her dying and waking up again. Being stuffed into the suit personally.
Its 3000 words over the word limit oh my god

The Horror Genius of Five Nights At Freddy’s
I’ve been playing FNAF: Help Wanted VR on my Oculus Quest lately (a birthday present to myself -- I know I’m late to that party!) and it’s reignited in me my old love of this series. I know Scott Cawthon’s politics aren’t great, but I don’t think there’s any malice in his heart beyond usual Christian conservative nonsense -- and I think he stepped down as graciously and magnanimously as possible when confronted about it. Time will judge Scott Cawthon’s politics, and that’s not what I’m here to talk about. I want to talk about what makes these games so damn special, from a horror, design, and marketing perspective. I think there’s really SO MUCH to be learned from studying these games and the wider influence they’ve had as intellectual property. 
Tumblr media
What Is FNAF? 
In case you’ve somehow been living under a rock for the last seven years, Five Nights At Freddy’s (hereafter, FNAF) is a horror franchise spanning 17 games (10 main games + some spinoffs and troll games, we’ll get to that), 27 books, a movie deal, and a couple live-action attractions. 
But before it exploded into that kind of tremendous IP, it started out as a single indie pont-and-click game created entirely by one dude, Scott Cawthon. Cawthon had developed other games in the past without much fame or success, including some Christian children’s entertainment. He was working as a cashier at Dollar General and making games in his spare time -- and most of those games got panned. 
So he tried making something different. 
After being criticized that the characters in one of his children’s games looked like soulless, creepy animatronics, Cawthon had his lightbulb moment and created a horror game centered on....creepy animatronics! 
The rest, as they say, is history. 
The Genius of FNAF’s Horror Elements
In the first FNAF game, you play as a night security guard at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, a sort of ersatz Chuck-E-Cheese establishment. The animatronics are on free-roaming mode at night, but you don’t want to let them find you in your security room so you have to watch them move through the building on security camera monitors. If they get too close, you can slam your security room doors closed. But be careful, because this restaurant operates on a shoestring budget, and the power will go off if you keep the doors closed too long or flicker the lights too often. And once the lights go out, you’re helpless against the animatronics in the dark. 
Guiding you through your gameplay is a fellow employee, Phone Guy, who calls you each night with some helpful advice. Phone Guy is voiced by Cawthon himself, and listening to his tapes gives you some hints of the game’s underlying story as well as telling you how to play. A few newspaper clippings and other bits of scrap material help to fill in more details of the story. 
Over the next set of games, the story would be further developed, with each new game introducing new mechanics and variations on the theme -- in one, you don a mask to slip past the notice of animatronics; in another, you have to play sound cues to lure an animatronic away from you. By the fourth game, the setup was changed completely, now featuring a child with a flashlight hiding from the monsters outside his door -- nightmarish versions of the beloved child-friendly mascots. The mechanics change just enough between variations to keep things fresh while maintaining a consistent brand. 
There are so many things these games do well from a storytelling and horror perspective: 
Jump Scares: It’s easy to shrug these games off for relying heavily on jump scares, and they absolutely do have a lot of them. But they’re used strategically. In most games, the jump scares are a punishment (a controlled shock, if you will) -- if you play the game perfectly, you’ll never be jump-scared. This is an important design choice that a lot of other horror games don’t follow. 
Atmospheric Dread: These games absolutely deliver horror and tension through every element of design -- some more than others, admittedly. But a combination of sound cues, the overall texture and aesthetic of the world, the “things move when you’re not looking at them” mechanic, all of it works together to create a feeling of unease and paranoia. 
Paranoia: As in most survival horror games, you’re at a disadvantage. You can’t move or defend yourself, really -- all you can do is watch. And so watch you do. Except it’s a false sense of security, because flicking lights and checking cameras uses up precious resources, putting you at greater risk. So you have to balance your compulsive need to check, double-check, and make sure...with methodical resource conservation. The best way to survive these games is to remain calm and focused. It’s a brilliant design choice. 
Visceral Horror: The monster design of the animatronics is absolutely delightful, and there’s a whole range of them to choose from. The sheer size and weight of the creatures, the way they move and position themselves, their grunginess, the deadness of their eyes, the quantity and prominence of their teeth. They are simultaneously adorable and horrifying. 
Implicit Horror: One of the greatest strengths to FNAF as a franchise is that it never wears its story on its sleeve. Instead of outright telling you what’s going on, the story is delivered in bits and pieces that you have to put together yourself -- creating a puzzle for an engaged player to think about and theorize over and consider long after the game is done. But more than that, the nature of the horror itself is such that it becomes increasingly upsetting the more you think on it. The implications of what’s going on in the game world -- that there are decaying bodies tucked away inside mascots that continue to perform for children, that a man dressed in a costume is luring kids away into a private room to kill them, and so forth -- are the epitome of fridge horror. 
The FNAF lore does admittedly start to become fairly ridiculous and convoluted as the franchise wears on. But even ret-conned material manages to be pretty interesting in its own right (and there is nothing in the world keeping you from playing the first four games, or even the first six, and pretending none of the rest exist). 
Another thing I really appreciate about the FNAF franchise is that it’s quite funny, in a way that complements and underscores the horror rather than detracting from it. It’s something a lot of other properties utterly fail to do. 
The Genius of Scott Cawthon’s Marketing 
OK, so FNAF utilizes a multi-prong attack for creating horror and implements it well -- big deal. Why did it explode into a massive IP sensation when other indie horror games that are just as well-made barely made a blip on the radar? 
Well! That’s where the real genius comes in. This game was built and marketed in a way to maximize its franchisability. 
First, the story utilizes instantly identifiable, simple but effective character designs, and then generates more and more instantly identifiable unique characters with each iteration. Having a wealth of characters and clever, unique designs basically paves the way for merchandise and fan-works. (That they’re anthropomorphic animal designs also probably helped -- because that taps into the furry fandom as well without completely alienating non-furries). 
Speaking of fan-work, Scott Cawthon has always been very supportive of fandom, only taking action when people would try to profit off knock-off games and that sort of thing -- basically bad-faith copies. But as far as I know he’s always been super chill with fan-created content, even going so far as to engage directly with the fandom. Which brings me to....
These games were practically designed for streaming, and he took care to deliver them into the hands of influential streamers. Because the games are heavy on jump-scares and scale in difficulty (even including extra-challenging modes after the core game is beaten) they are extremely fun to watch people play. They’re short enough to be easily finished over the duration of a long stream, and they’re episodic -- lending themselves perfectly to a YouTube Lets Play format. One Night = One Video, and now the streamer has weeks of content from your game (but viewers can jump in at any time without really missing much). 
The games are kid-friendly but also genuinely frightening. Because the most disturbing parts of the game’s lore are hinted at rather than made explicit, younger players can easily engage with the game on a more basic surface level, and others can go as deep into the lore as they feel comfortable. There is no blood and gore and violence or even any explicitly stated death in the main game; all of the murder and death is portrayed obliquely by way of 8-bit mini games and tangential references. Making this game terrifying but accessible to youngsters, and then marketing it directly to younger viewers through popular streamers (and later, merchandising deals) is genius -- because it creates a very broad potential audience, and kids tend to spend 100% of their money (birthdays, allowances, etc.) and are most likely to tell their friends about this super scary game, etc. etc.
By creating a puzzle box of lore, and then interacting directly with the fandom -- dropping hints, trolling, essentially creating an ARG of his own lore through his website, in-game easter eggs, and tie-in materials -- Cawthon created a mystery for fandom to solve. And fans LOVE endlessly speculating over convoluted theories. 
Cawthon released these games FAST. He dropped FNAF 2 within months of the first game’s release, and kept up a pace of 1-2 games a year ever since. This steady output ensured the games never dropped out of public consciousness -- and introducing new puzzle pieces for the lore-hungry fans to pore over helped keep the discussion going. 
I think MatPat and The Game Theorists owe a tremendous amount of their own huge success to this game. I think Markiplier does, too, and other big streamers and YouTubers. It’s been fascinating watching the symbiotic relationship between these games and the people who make content about these games. Obviously that’s true for a lot of fandom -- but FNAF feels so special because it really did start so small. It’s a true rags-to-riches sleeper hit and luck absolutely played a role in its growth, but skill is a big part too. 
Take-Aways For Creatives 
I want to be very clear here: I do not think that every piece of media needs to be “IP,” franchisable, an extended universe, or a multimedia sensation. I think there is plenty to be said for creating art of all types, and sometimes that means a standalone story with a small audience. 
But if you do want a chance at real break-out, run-away success and forging a media empire of your own, I think there are some take-aways to be learned from the success of FNAF: 
Persistence. Scott Cawthon studied animation and game-design in the 1990s and released his first game in 2002. He released a bunch of stuff afterward. None of it stuck. It took 12 years to hit on the winning formula, and then another several years of incredibly hard work to push out more titles and stoke the fires before it really became a sensation. Wherever you’re at on your creative journey, don’t give up. You never know when your next thing will be The Thing that breaks you out. 
If you want to sell a lot of something, you have to make it widely appealing to a bunch of people. This means keeping your concept simple to understand (”security guard wards off creepy killer animatronics at a pizza parlor”) and appealing to as wide a segment of the market as you can (ie, a horror story that appeals to both kids and adults). The more hyper-specific your audience, the harder it’s gonna be to find them and the fewer copies of your thing you’ll be selling. 
Know your shit and put your best work out there. I think there’s an impulse to feel like “well, nobody reads this anyway, so why does it matter if it’s no good” (I certainly have fallen into that on multiple occasions) but that’s the wrong way to think about it. You never know when and where your break will come. Put your best work out there and keep on polishing your craft with better and better stuff because eventually one of those things you chuck out there is going to be The Thing. 
Figure out where your target audience hangs out, and who influences them, and then get your thing in the hands of those influencers. Streaming and YouTube were the secret to FNAF’s success. Maybe yours will be BookTube, or Instagram, or a secret cabal of free librarians. I don’t know. But you should try your best to figure out who would like the thing that you’re making, and then figure out how to reach those people, and put all of your energy into that instead of shotgun-blasting your marketing all willy nilly. 
You don’t have to put the whole story on the page. Audiences love puzzles. Fans love mysteries. You can actually leave a lot more unanswered than you think. There’s some value in keeping secrets and leaving things for others to fill in. Remember -- your art is only partly yours. The sandbox belongs to others to play in, too, and you have to let them do that. 
If in doubt, appealing to furries never hurts. 
Do I take all of this advice myself? Not by a long shot. But it’s definitely a lot to think about. 
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go beat The Curse of Dreadbear.

ok i mentioned earlier that i wanted to make a fnaf au that sort of does it’s own thing and is it’s own beast entirely so I spent a few hours writing a few things down and here are the basic plot elements nd stuff!! fair warning tho it is REALLY long so that’s why the readmore is there
you play as a 2nd year college student whose on vacation with 6-7 of your friends who all go to different schools. ur all on vacation in ur small hometown around the midwest region of the us, none of the friends except for one is rlly worth noting (bc i’ve yet to rlly flesh them out)
it takes place in the modern era, around summertime, and right near the end of everyones vacation.
the one friend of note I mentioned is a guy called Lester Smith! He’s really into electronics and his dream job is to become something akin to an imagineer . you and him go way back but not in the good way. You used to bully him a lot in middle-high school for being the “weird kid” and ultimately fucked up his dreams. This is because at the end of senior year, there was a robotics competition you both partook in, both in different teams, and the reward for the winning team was a fully paid scholarship for the most prestigious stem school in the state. Lester would’ve won, but the only reason he didn’t is because YOU broke into his garage late at night and tampered w his robot so that it would fail and make him seem like he was inept at programming. That’s what happened, and YOU won the scholarship instead. This was a massive blow to Lesters hopes as his parents weren’t able to pay for a proper college for him and his grades in other areas weren’t that good so he just goes to a community college now. since then you and him have became friends as he mostly seems to be on good terms w it and doesn’t SEEM to be onto you for what you did to him. you two like to talk about animatronics a lot and it’s apparent that he’s probably way smarter than you and that he probably deserved that scholarship way more than you do.
also none of your friends are accquantinced with Lester, you only just introduced them to him over break, and they seem to be getting along well. For now
thankfully for Lester his luck has turned around, he’s been showcasing these new entertainment animatronics he’s worked years on to multiple restaurant chains but they’ve all wanted nothing to do with his project because of Lester’s lack of any sort of resume etc. it all seemed doomed to fail until this local restaurant called Freddy’s (which genuinely is not affiliated with the Freddy Fazbear company because....the Fazbear company does not exist in this universe!!! it ditches the canon ALTOGETHER. the place the plot takes place in is just called Freddy’s for continuity purposes and to keep the name of the franchise) humored his offer and took him up on it. probably because the company is losing money each day and is likely only doing this so it can bring customers in and not be bankrupt
OH YEAH ALSO Freddy’s is given the funding to go thru with the animatronics initiative from an anonymous angel investor which has also allowed them to expand it and be relatively financially well off and has allowed Lester to make more animatronics and expand the place! so that’s fun
the hypothetical game takes place thruout the week-long testing period for the animatronic prototypes and the restaurants renovations are nearly done and they also need extra night guards to make sure everything goes smoothly. so you and your friends all decide to pool in and help Lester with the testing week by all becoming night guards and working together at the same time since it’s your last week together and you have nothing else to really do plus you could use the extra money but YAY!!!! FRIEND MOMENCE
Throughout the hypothetical game Lester who is also a nightguard serves as your phone guy stand-in. He calls every night to chat with you and the others, telling you about tips and tricks to make sure the animatronics work as intended, goofing off with you, infodumping about his cool robots, being a pretty neat dude and having fun. it’s so cool.
as mentioned before it ditches the series standard 5 canonical night format and goes with a full week of 7 canonical nights instead. the first night is relatively tame but as it goes on the other nightguards (who are your friends) start disappearing one by one....aka they’re being KILLED by the animatronics. you can’t really know this is happening at first because all your friends have made it clear they have to go back home on different days, and your friends disappear on the days they’re set to leave home so nothing seems amiss at first because you, and everyone else who’s still left, just thinks they headed back home like they said they would, which Lester assures you is what’s going on. but eventually in the last 2 nights you and Lester are the only ones left and it becomes apparent that your friends, or rather what remains of them, never got out at all.
remember how i said that Lester serves as the phone guy stand in and how he helped you with the animatronics? turns out a lot of the advice he fed you through calls actually ended up aiding him in killing all your friends, and technically you’re sort of to blame for why they’re not around. 50% of the advice he’s given you ends up hurting your friends and making the animatronics go after them.
plot twist! Lester is fully aware that you ruined his life at that robotics competition and as soon as he got home from it he could tell that someone, specifically you, tampered with his robot, and has been planning to brutally get back at you for years and is incredibly jealous and spiteful toward you for obvious and... pretty justifiable reasons, all things considered
on the 7th night Lester locks both you and himself in Freddy’s with no way for either of you to escape. he’s then killed by one of the animatronics and that animatronic, now possessed with his soul and with his consciousness stored inside, chases after you and tries to kill you. this is along with the other animatronics, who are now all haunted by your dead besties who died on the previous nights, partially controlled by Lester and enraged that you let them die. you spend the rest of the night evading them, but in the last few hours they all combine together into a single animatronic who is entirely controlled by Lester and goes after you even MORE and the difficulty ofc ramps up to 100.
the only way to beat the night is by going into the secret storage room and grabbing all the fireworks that you and your friends were going to set off on your last night together as a group on break - which is like, a lot of fireworks - but had to cancel due to bad weather (which was the 2nd night of the game, right around when ppl were disappearing) and luring the Mega monster animatronic to it and setting it off, destroying Freddy’s and everything in it. wether ur player character also dies in this explosion is up to ur interpretation and their fate is left ambiguous as the Newspaper Article(tm) published after night 7 states that you simply “disappeared” and doesn’t elaborate on if ur alive or not.
so yeah!!! that’s the basic plot and backstory of my fnaf au. i’ve always thought it would be really cool if there was a fnaf game based off the slasher genre (w Lester being the slasher-type villain here), that concept has always worked rlly well in my mind nd i gotta say i’m having SO much fun workshopping it. i’ll get to designing the characters and the animatronics REAL soon and i’m definitely gonna have a ball w those aspects. i’ll also probably find a name for it other than “MY FUNNY FNAF AU” so that’s cool. ok i’m done rambling im so excited to flesh this out byeeee ^^

Personalities: FNaF 1
I’ve been meaning to do this for so long, just never decided to sit down and do it. Probably because I keep getting distracted with other stuff. Feast your eyes (is that how it goes, I might be dumb). I spent a couple of hours on this, and let me tell you I never thought it’d be this difficult. But I’m proud of this, even if it may be cringe.
(oops they ended up being really long I think you can tell who’s my favourite character (hint they’re a robot))
Basically everyone in this group are buds. Sometimes they don’t get a long but they know how to not take it too far. I tried not to repeat cliches (Goldie being either really flirty or really shy, Chica being a cook, etc.). I mostly went off of what they do in the game and took the traits I liked.
Note that these are the personalities of the animatronics themselves, not the dead children. The idea is that they started off as just the kids but then they got their own lives and slowly developed their own personality until they were separate. I might give them some personalities later on, but right now I’m focusing on the robots.
Likes to be the boss
Freddy
Seems grumpy and unapproachable but he’s actually pretty nice
Scary when he scolds you though
He doesn’t even realize he seems grouchy
Can be pretty boring to hang out with
Unless you enjoy cleaning, dealing with Chica and Foxy, and reading in silence
Bonnie is the one he’s the closest to
(sort of because of Fredbear and Springbonnie being friends, they’re not copying they just happen to mirror it)
Loves hugs and uses them to comfort others
He’ll also use his music box
He’s good at comforting others with hugs
Hates the “don’t touch Freddy” rule
Has a really nice singing voice
He hums and sings when he’s bored or when he’s doing something
The cook of the group and he can make a good pizza
He makes thin-crusted pizzas because helth
He can’t eat so he’ll leave them in the fridge for the kids
Everyone’s baffled on how it got there but accept it anyway
He remembers all the children who come and loves them all very much
He likes to keep things tidy
When Chica’s made a mess in the kitchen he goes in to clean it
He used to scold her for it, but he’s given up
He picks up random items that the children forget with the intention of returning them
Straight up eats them
(He steps in the backroom or goes behind the curtain to get the toys out, children don’t need to see that)
He still continues to pick up toys even when he can’t go off the stage anymore, just a habit that stayed
Frustrated that the new employees just throw away the toys instead of putting them in the lost and found
Sometimes he plays the arcade machines on his own time
He likes to read
There’s no books though, so he just ends up reading manuals, newspapers that people leave behind, employee files, etc.
Until he secretly ordered a book series for himself
It took some convincing from the others
But he ultimately decided to because he doesn’t like the owner
Also the owner is really bad at actually managing the restaurant so he never noticed
Because of this Freddy often steps in from behind the scenes when things are really going wrong, like employees misbehaving
He sends an email to them and then he gives them a little fright when they come into work and they usually either quit or straighten up
He likes earthy tones like brown and beige because he’s boring
Bonnie
He comes off as nonchalant and uncaring
People think he’s angsty
It’s basically his whole persona when he’s on stage, he’s supposed to be the party pooper that doesn’t like parties but is eventually convinced by his friends to join and has fun
Off stage he doesn’t have that much of a presence
He can approach people just fine and isn’t really that shy
He’s just a quiet guy
Probably the best one to chill with because he’ll talk if you’re talking but he’s cool with silence and just enjoying each other’s presence
The type to laugh at his own expense
Has some dark humour and likes to joke around with Foxy, who also enjoys that humour
Secretly the mother hen of the group (despite being a bunny and a guy, he just fits mother)
Would laugh if you trip but then subtly watch you for injuries
If it’s an animatronic he can do some basic fixing
Doesn’t know anything about human first aid, but he’ll help where he can and call for help if he needs to
The type of guy to seem calm but there’s internal panic
If something seems kind of dangerous he’ll watch from afar
But if it’s too dangerous he’s the first one to shut it all down
Good at comforting others
Worries a lot and is probably the most cautious of the group
Very protective
It’s why he’s the first one to come to your door, he wants to make sure it’s no one dangerous (even though they’re like 400lb robots but sssh)
Hides most of his worrying, thinks he’d come across as annoying
Weak to puppy-dog eyes
Likes happy alternative music, but he’s open to almost anything
Plays the guitar by ear
Is pretty good, not legendary, but he experiments on his own
Can’t read sheet music
His favourite colour is red
Takes random pieces of paper like articles and anything useless and writes on the back of them like a diary, he keeps it hidden inside of the backroom in one of the Bonnie heads
Chica
Chaos incarnate
She’s a hyperactive kid that has trouble considering other’s feelings
Struggles with responsibility
Her favourite colour is green
Not at all good at comforting people
But she can listen while you rant and chime in or give you a distraction if you need it
“you wouldn’t believe the crap I had to deal with today”
“I wanna know everything!”
She’s actually the physically the strongest in the group
They’re all pretty strong, she’s just at the top
Mostly uses her strength to lift tables in order to make forts and playing around in the kitchen
Has broken many pans and lots of cooking utensils
Terrible cook
Can’t be left in the kitchen unsupervised for too long otherwise you run the risk of her starting a fire
Good at singing
Loves happy-go-lucky tunes
Radiates positivity
Doesn’t like the others being sad, but doesn’t know what to do about it
She’d probably get Freddy or Bonnie to help
Baby of the group (she is an adult though)
Has excellent puppy-dog eyes, only Freddy can stand them
Has trouble dealing with her own emotions
Tends to idolize or idealize people too much
Doesn’t understand what the outside world is like, or any of the problems that people deal with
I think that you gathered by now that she is not the mother hen of the group, even though she’s chicken
More like the kid sister that wants you to play dolls with her
Doesn’t like being alone and will find others to keep her company
Her feelings get hurt pretty easily
She can take a joke, just don’t be mean even if it is funny
Easily made happy by food
Tries to convince Freddy to make her pizza
When he doesn’t she’s like “fine then I’ll make it on my own”
Spends like a half hour trying to decide which pan to use and even more time getting the ingredients together
Freddy stops her before she can actually make anything, otherwise the whole place will burn
She’s easily distracted and tends to be absentminded
But if she finds something she likes she can sit there and do it for hours
Doesn’t like sudden noises, even though she makes them
Impulsive
Doesn’t play the arcade games, they make her mad
Foxy
The other chaos incarnate, he’s Chica’s partner in crime
If they were left in a room together all the tables would be smashed the chairs would be arranged to make a fortress
Tends to cause a lot of trouble so he gets put in time out often by the Freddy’s
Claims they’re being bums but they just want to keep the building intact
He sneaks away when they’re not looking sometimes and gets in even more trouble
Has the same dark humour as Bonnie
But he doesn’t laugh at himself
Actually a little self conscious
He’s a psychopath that enjoys exercise
When I say exercise I mean running and that’s it
He likes to pretend he’s either running away from or being chased by a huge monster
It’s one of the few things that can calm him down, just let him burn off some energy
Makes the others time him, but Chica usually gets distracted
Not a bad person, he just has a very hard time sitting still
He likes to draw
Carves little pictures into the floor of the cove when he’s bored
He’s running out of space though
If you give him a colouring book (they have some children’s colouring books and crayons) he’ll be calm up until he’s finished, then he’ll want to do another one
He also likes storytelling
Don’t ask him to write though, he doesn’t have much patience
Struggles with feelings of sadness
Misses performing for the kids
Most negative emotions translate into anger
Which will result in him trying to smash things and they others having to hold him back
Says things he doesn’t mean and does things that he wouldn’t do otherwise
He just can’t handle the emotion
Luckily he doesn’t get angry often
More often than not he’ll just pretend the negative feelings don’t exist, which also isn’t healthy
Out of everyone in the group he wants to go outside the most
He likes movies
There was a cheap VCR and tv in the boss’s office that’s now in the pirate cove
Somehow, none of the employees realized he took it
Either that or they just weren’t paid enough to care
He has like two movies he watches on repeat, it’s another thing you can give him to calm him down.
His favourite colour is blue, like the ocean
The true angsty one
Golden Freddy/Goldie/Fredbear
Spends a lot of time alone
Kind of a grump
Doesn’t like being bothered
He got the nickname Golden Freddy because that’s what the others called him when they first met him
It didn’t stick at all until the night guards that saw him called him that
Now it’s something the others call him to tease him, but they usually shorten it to Gold or Goldie.
He doesn’t really mind Gold or Goldie, but Golden Freddy kind of bothers him because it makes it sound like he came after when he’s actually the original
Doesn’t say anything though
Hangs out in the safe room, so the others can’t really get to him anyway
But they can yell through the door so there’s that
(I know it’s supposed to be invisible to them but they have life and stuff so they can see, they just can’t go inside)
He’s very sleepy
Spends most of his time sleeping or daydreaming
Doesn’t really miss performing
Says it was fun while it lasted but he’s fine with it being over
Though sometimes he eats his words when it’s daytime and the kids come
The cheering gives him the urge to come out and say hi even though he knows he shouldn’t
Misses being able to hang out with Springbonnie all the time
Springbonnie is there in the backroom with him, it’s kind of why he spends so much time in there
He activates sometimes, but he usually stays shut down to conserve battery
It’s pretty random
Springbonnie doesn’t know much about what’s going on, he never stays up long enough to get a full explaination
But he does try his best to keep his friend in high hopes
(I’ll be writing his personality later on, with FNaF 4)
There’s no way to charge him because the chargers are on the stage and the others can’t come in to help move him and Goldie’s not strong enough
And he can’t get up on his own
He likes being able to talk to him sometimes at least
Every now and then the others have to convince him to come out
He comes out on his own occasionally
But sometimes he shuts himself out completely and doesn’t realize how lonely he is, even if it is self-inflicted
The best way to get him to come out is knock-knock jokes, he loves them and the irony of it being through a door is just perfect
Likes even the cheesy ones
You can tell him puns or some well-constructed jokes too, he likes pretty much everything
He’s the grumpiest but he’s also the best at making others laugh
What can I say, he has a lot of time on his hands
When he does come out he hangs out with Freddy or Bonnie, the other two are too high energy for him
He plays the arcade games
He has the highest score, since he literally lives there and can play them whenever he wants
Likes the repetitiveness of some of the games
Even if he’s kind of a grump and a recluse the others respect him and come to him for advice when they need it
It’s sometimes stupid stuff like “where did my guitar go” and “quick help me hide Bonnie’s guitar”
He likes the colour purple

What if?
Imagine if the animatronic Miko AU took place after the bots left? I think that would also be a good angst and probably even MORE devastating scenario for the bots.
Either they left earth and came back quite a couple years later (like when the kids would be in their middle adult ages) to visit their human friends.
And the kids now adults Jack and Raf have to hide the fact that Miko died a month or two after they even left. Or they tell them and Bulkhead has a breakdown that his basically adopted daughter is long dead. Not knowing said girl is watching them in Jack's garage in her animatronic form.
It's already depressing if the bots are sad to see the kids age quickly, after learning they age up to only around 100 if they're lucky, they got more protective and more in their lives to watch them succeed. When they came back they would probably promise to visit more often since its only been the equivalent of a few weeks for them while the kids are adults already.
Bulkhead and Wheeljack trained Miko to be a wrecker for a future cybertron she'll 'never' get to see. But now they learn that she never even got to reach adulthood? They would be broken. All of them.
OR! another scenario with this idea: its been over 100 years and the bots visit Earth when they finally get the chance. They know it's too late but still visit to contact the government about their friends resting places.
The government gave them the location of a beautiful field-like place, where the three kids had chosen to have their graves put (they might have found Miko's body and she requested it be buried there. her friends follow suit when they grow old) the bots mourn the children that they will always see as sparklings in their eyes. Happy that they at least had a full life.
At least. Until Ultra Magnus takes a closer look at Miko's grave. What if he noticed that the girls death date was not even close to the other two children? He takes account of the date and points out to the bots that the girl had died not even two months after their departure from earth. Making the mood even worse for the two wreckers and captain of the three. The youngest member of the Wreckers hadn't even made it to adulthood. Somehow she died. Was she sick? Did she have an illness she never told them about? Was she KILLED?
They mourn the deaths of the kids, and the one that will forever remain a child in spirit. They can only hope the three are at peace. They mourn around their graves and plan to give the children a small ceremony of gratitude on Cybertron with all the other fallen soldiers throughout their war.
As they pray for the children's peace. Three animatronics watches from a distance. Far from the eternal peace. But closer to a loving family they so wish to embrace with a reunion. Ever so bittersweet.
(This is a what if for my AU, this idea for it is not made Canon. But for now it is a more depressing idea for it)

Your QJ & DW in FNAF posts are killing me 🤣 But I’ve gotta know, what do you think Quackerjack’s reaction to the actual lore of the games would be? (Besides “this is needlessly complicated!”) We all know QJ has no problem with violence, but he’s not cool with murdering kids. And I don’t know if his actions would change when/if he realizes that the robots trying to kill him are dead children… 1/2
Tumblr media
Thank you! FNAF is probably one of my favorite modern franchises right now, especially just because of how convoluted it's become, like, I really just dig that it's taken every direction it can and has gone to town with it. It doesn't really take itself too seriously, and I'd probably liken it to a modern day Goosebumps-esque sort of thing these days, where it just has fun with the spooks atmosphere and isn't really trying to give people nightmares. And yet, the fans themselves can create some really stellar content based around it.
I feel like, before I continue, we need to at the least acknowledge the fact that QuackerJack has honestly tried to murder Gosalyn at least twice because he decided she'd gone past her usefulness in his plans:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Like, yeah, he does seem to be more inclined to interact with children than adults, but he's also legit insane and thinks that alternative to people with gaming addiction is to just enslave them himself so he can repurpose thier skills for what he deems more useful in his eyes.
Like William Afton, QuackerJack is quite skilled at achieving mechanical marvels that have a tendency to create a questionably safe environment for the intended core audience. However, QuackerJack achieves this by utilizing his own technical know-how and by reverse engineering things he comes across to figure out how to modify it to do what he wants, so he's not using supernatural mumbo jumbo to do so, and if his devices turn on a kid, it's because it's just designed to do that in general, regardless of who's handling the item. Afton is just out to trap kids overall.
I suppose the key difference between him and Afton is that QuackerJack isn't harvesting children's undiluted pure agony to fuel robots to cheat death and resurrect the souls of his children that were killed and absorbed by his creations.
QuackerJack just wants to push the limits of what he can create. I think it's worth noting that, based on the original canon, QuackerJack is part of the Boomer generation, which, I should note, my Mom (I should note that she's actually my grandmother, but she adopted me, so that's why there's a generation gap that big between us) is of the same generation as well, and I've heard plenty about the types of toys that existes back then, such as kid sized working power tools made for tiny hands that actually sawed wood and stuff, or small working clothes irons that plugged into a wall and were basically a hot plate for kids, or the literal Atomic Lab for kids that had actual utonium in it, and the metal melting die cast kit where you can melt metal and pour the hot molten metal into molds to make little metal army men and horses and stuff.
Which, honestly, sounds pretty epic, albeit probably not very safe by today's standards. My Mom usually has an expression of nostalgia if I mention these sorts of items, but she'd also absolutely would not want me anywhere near a toy with a hot plate as a key feature.
That in mind, it does suddenly make sense as to why exactly QuackerJack would have a skewed sense of safety when it comes to his retro style of toy making. He's not intentionally being malicious; he's just offended when someone takes a potshot at something he's poured his entire adult life into fine tuning. And, given that it's most certainly canon that he's got a few things wrong with how his brain ticks; this manifests in some form of: "If you're not going to play this my way, then you're not going to play at all."
All that said, I could definitely see him reacting to finding out what exactly is going on with the Animatronics with probably a "... What... the actual heck?" sort of dawning reaction, and then probably expressing the desire to kneecap Afton with the pipe wrench he found in the Parts and Services room.
Although, since I've done a bit of math to figure out on what scale Darkwing and QuackerJack would be in this sort of thing, I have to admit that imagining a 2ft 8in bird dressed as a jester running after some guy while swinging around a spanner to decimate the guy's legs does sound a tad ridiculous.
But it would probably be satisfying.
QuackerJack: This guy is out here harming kids with his robots that are masked to look like cuddly toys!
Darkwing: 🤨
QuackerJack: OH, SHUT UP, MINE ARE NOT THE SAME THING!

biiitch i got a theory on fnaf security breach
theres the common theory that monty destroyed bonnie to take his place and theres clear evidence that that was more than likely the case, but out of all the band, its weird monty would go after bonnie when he couldve gotten freddy, as there is a bad ending where he does end up the lead of the band. we all know vanny is hacking the animatronics and that monty existed before bonnie disappeared.
not a very hot take but i believe monty was made as a cover up for bonnie going missing. his main purpose for existing in the first place was to destroy and replace bonnie, so bonnies parts would be used to repair none other than springtrap aka purple guy aka glitchtrap aka william afton.
the reason afton would want glamrock bonnie is kind of obvious as otherwise, he wouldnt be able to use the charging stations. and of course because bonnie is a rabbit and also purple, his two trademarks.
building off of this theory, vanny (basically vanessas alter ego that glitchtrap influenced in making and taking over if you know about the secret tapes) was the one in power (with glitchtraps influence over her though) when all this was happening. vanessa was originally a beta tester for a vr game and glitchtrap got to her through the game, taking over her, just as he tried with the other beta tester, jeremy (i think that was his name i dont remember). jeremy was deemed crazy for being so weird about the vr games and theres the fact his death was by his own hand to avoid glitchtraps influence taking over, and if you remember, he kills himself by literally tearing his face off. keep this in mind.
as there isnt much proof to this, im going to include this mini theory just an idea for other people to build off of, but what if jeremys spirit went into glamrock bonnies suit. hear me out. theres the theory by matpat gametheory that freddy is actually the older son of william afton, micheal afton, and that of course "greggory" is the bite of 87 victim (the crying child) aka the little brother of micheal. micheal was known as the boy with the foxy head who terrorized his younger brother and all that jazz. and of course we know that he was the second purple guy. micheal is freddy because hes the only one that was able to not be under the influence of glitchtraps virus and also because he wanted to protect his little brother. watch matpats video on that as thats not my exact point but evidence that can help support my theory. what if bonnie was the beta test of glitchtraps virus through jeremys spirit. what if bonnie was jeremy. what if jeremy was stuffed into glamrock bonnies stomach hatch after his body was discovered. if jeremy is the spirit inside of bonnie, why would he even be in there? maybe it was vanny trying to mimic william to make jeremy suffer inside of bonnie and eventually end up under glitchtraps influence anyway. bonnie was made to replace william aftons body in the end. listen to me.
the entire pizza plex was built on top of an older freddy location for the reason that william was stuck inside the original building. my guess is in the game help wanted, the guy who guides you through the game (the man who helped william make the animatronics, the man who made lefty to trap the marionette/the puppet, to get all the old animatronics to go to the location that help wanted is set in to burn them all to not only release the spirits within but to also be rid of springtrap aka his old coworker william afton) wanted a fresh start for his animatronics since he was one of the original creators of them and they were his property now since william was "dead". so he built the pizza plex. he wanted to bury the origins of freddy fazbears legacy, to hide away all the horrible shit that occurred, to cover up the blood shed his coworker caused. a brand new beginning. he wanted to keep his beloved characters up and running but he wanted them fresh, uncorrupted by william afton, so he made entirely new designs and bodies for them. all the original spirits of the original animatronics have already been released so he could only hope that these new ones would remain devoid of human spirits for obvious reasons. im going to say that the game of help wanted was right before security breach. that during that game, maybe you were playing as either vanessa or jeremy (i havent seen a full playthrough nor know too much except the basics of the game so i could be wrong), since they were vr beta testers for a freddy game. the dude they were hired by was none other than the guy who owns the franchise now, and the dude they worked under during beta testing couldve been some guy the new owner had hired to monitor the development of the game that he was making to clear up the mess that had occurred with the franchise's past and to hype up freddy to the general public again, giving the bear cleaner recognition to start anew with the pizza plex. the game that was hacked by glitchtrap. glitchtrap made a comeback through the vr game and spread himself throughout the new pizzaplex using vanessa to import him. glitchtrap couldve used his hacking to slip vanessa into the pizza plex system to have her hired as a security guard just so he could have vanny spread his influence on the animatronics right under the new owners nose.
and to continue off of the idea that the new owner controlled the making of the pizza plex and glamrocks, he probably planned ahead for foxy and bonnie replacements, bonnie being too much of a reminder of the monstrosity that was springtrap aka golden bonnie, but he kept bonnie for the beginning of the plex's career to start off familiarly in case old fans were going to complain or something. my next theory on why roxy replaced foxy was because foxy was dysfunctional from the start, because he was made by william afton, who had planned to use foxy to cover up his original murders. bonnie was probably originally created by the new owner but was tarnished in his vision after springtrap purple guy came around, you know. so he made monty as an easy replacement for the rabbit, not realizing that he was helping williams return. the rabbits body was then used under the new owners nose to recover springtrap from underground using vannys help. bonnie wasnt meant to be destroyed by monty by the new owners plan but vanny had control of the gator during that incident, as vanessa is the night security guard, and bonnies disappearance was during her shift hours. and bonnie, as i theorized earlier, was actually jeremy, who was stuffed into the rabbit by vanny after he killed himself by ripping off his own face to avoid glitchtraps influence, then to haunt bonnie with the glitchtrap virus influenced spirit of jeremy who had went into gater golf to get pummelled by monty who was controlled by vanny. so bonnie genuinely disappeared in the new owners eyes but the rabbit was actually used by vanny, going underground to the original building to fix up springtraps body with bonnies body. my main reason for theorizing jeremy was any part of bonnies death is because jeremy died faceless. bonnie, in the series, countless times, has been seen faceless himself. even in the game help wanted, you can repair bonnie, and to do so you pop off his face. it could just be an easter egg of a reminder of the rabbits past, but it could also tell us the future and present of the pizza plex glamrock bonnies demise. why do i point out the facelessness of both jeremy and bonnie? look at burntrap. burntrap has the top half of a bunny animatronic head. he has a face. now it may not be glamrock bonnies face, tho it could be maybe? i mean you do burn him a lot during the end so it couldve rotted a lot during that time but i dunno. but if burntrap, aka william afton aka glitchtrap aka purple guy aka springtrap, was using glamrock bonnies body parts, those parts would have to have been haunted by jeremy, right? i mean, jeremy is under the influence of glitchtraps virus so he would still be william in a way, but at this point, jeremys spirit wouldve been released from the parts from the burning of burntrap as the original animatronics were burned to be released too, right? maybe? or what if he survived (kind of), still under glitchtraps virus, and spread farther out? just an idea.
this is a whole lotta theories in one but the series is so vast its confusing. my next theory is on moon and sun.
why was moon corrupted but sun was not? sun was off, sure, but i assume he was just glitchy because of moons virus, maybe? i mean we see sun "turn" into moon when the lights go off, his design is moons, his personality is moons, everything is moon. i mean in the game, his model is separate from moon, but that could just be for the editors sake, as i think it would be hard to have a single model that can shapeshift and keep it as one. but since sun and moon are conjoined, what keeps the virus from affecting sun the same as it does moon, if it affects him at all? what if that is the affect it has on him? a stupid theory but not a necessarily bad one i have is that the virus takes up a lot of energy. while sun is out, the lights in the daycare are on, the power is being used up quite a bit already, and sun is hyperactive as it is. we see moon use a wire to "fly" around the daycare which is connected to the ceiling, which may or may not also use power as it could be mechanical given the way it functions with the animatronic, but im not sure on that part. moon is the only one corrupted because sun takes up too much energy. i dont think we see sun use the wire at all, we see him just hop on down in the ball pit, no training wheels, no floaties, just full on barebacking the ball pit (not sorry for that image its funny to me). moon, on the other hand, uses the wire to do his hops and stunts in the air. for this we could say the wire doesnt take up as much power as the lights do plus it helps moon get around easier to conserve his own energy. thats just a small theory that may not make much sense but another part of this might make more sense. when the power goes out in the whole building, moon can wander around outside of the daycare, unlike sun. moon, under glitchtraps virus, can probably pass by security shit that sun cant since he isnt corrupted or something? either sun genuinely cant leave the daycare or he just likes staying there, i dunno, but its odd that moon just wanders out however he pleases if its dark. hell, we see moon take freddy while greggory is stuck inside a charging station, moon even looks at greggy boy. moon works under glitchtrap and probably corrupted freddy a bit more during that time after he just fucking kidnaps him. its just weird okay i dont have much else to say give me a break it is 4 am
but yeah. thats my theory for now. below is me while writing this btw

Reader w/wings hc's p.2: lesser- known egos/egos i just didn’t wanna put in the last one
Tumblr media
ty @fancybootm for the request!
A/N: IT’S BEEN A WHOLE ASS MONTH SINCE I GOT THIS I AM SO FUCKING SORRY. school is suck. anyways. my brain convinced itself that I had to have the same amount of egos in this one as the last one so shit's long again. I had a bit of trouble but scrounged up enough of them. uhhh I don't... we don't really know a lot? about the personalities of these ones? so I just went with what I thought. for Heistiplier, I like to think Mark in AHWM and ADWM is a completely separate person from Actor. Like until we get to the Actor timeline he is a separate person altogether. Night Guard Mark is like mark from the fnaf musical because i can and fuck you. the egos are very random and from many lesser known videos so uh. you might not know all of them. I didn’t even know all of them at first. some of these fuckers annoy me to no end so I had to make them more likable for my own sanity cjfufydy. I only skimmed through after I wrote so it might suck lol. Uh rated T for cursing. Mentions of religion and mental health. Enjoy!
Y/N(reader) w/ wings headcanons p.2
Ed Edgar saw you as a profiting opportunity.
Bastard only uses you for commercials at first
Wings sell shit, don’t they? Kids are into wings these days?
One day you get pissed and just punch him
He respects you after that…
He’s very loud, of course, and your ears tend to be sensitive
He tries to quiet down when he sees you make a face
It’s difficult because that… that’s just his normal volume
He talks about his son sometimes. Not to you specifically
He gets sad… you still don’t completely understand what happened.
Sometimes it feels like he doesn’t either
You instinctively wrap your wings around him for Safety and Comfort
He is a MAN who DOES NOT CRY but goddammit, he was close 
He enjoys your company
The Silver Shepherd thought he was gonna rescue you
He’s a superhero, he HAS to save you, right?
Nah, you’re the one saving him more often than not
He tries not to be jealous, but goddamn
Your wings are just. So big. And pretty
He’ll complain to you about his girlfriend “cheating” on him
You know the bullshit he pulls, but you listen because why not
He appreciates that you at least pay a little bit of attention
He doesn’t do a whole lot of hero work, but he usually brings you along
Just for a bit of extra support
More often than not, you’re doing most of the work
You let him believe he did something, though
You boost his very low ego, and so you get along
Derek Derekson was a little bitch
Also saw you as a profiting opportunity
Yelled sometimes when you messed up
You took deep breaths and tried to stay calm the first few times
Then you snapped, calling him a variety of... words...
He stopped yelling at you, but not much else changed
You got along well with Eric, and he appreciated you for that
He does care about his only living son, at least a little
You two don’t… talk a lot
He’ll watch you from afar, occasionally
You constantly encourage him to TALK TO HIS CHILD and GO TO THERAPY
You still don’t like him, and he feels the same way
But he’s… trying
Randall Voorhees thought you were badass
He wasn’t as used to magic and weird shit as the others
You were absolutely awesome to him
He’d never seen an angel before!
Even though he didn’t really KNOW that you were an angel
He just assumed and refused to change his mind
Harder to hide you wings in crowded cities, like where he lives
You spend a lot of your time with him cooped up in his apartment
He felt bad, so he rents a mountain cabin up in Albany whenever you visit
You two ski and snowboard look me in the eyes and tell me the bitch isn’t a snowboarder
He’s a construction worker, so he’s usually busy
You visit him on his lunch break sometimes.
The other workers claim to see you, but he’ll always deny it
He buys a pizza whenever you visit and you eat it together
You two are so cute it’s sickening
Yandereplier claimed you as their new senpai
They saw you, you had wings, you were nice
And now you are Senpai
You aren’t sure why you get a weird feeling whenever they call you this
Luckily, you don’t have many friends, at least none that they could kill…
They showed you their weapon collection to impress you
You were scared and also impressed
They take you to a cherry blossom tree near their house
You talk and hang out and eat lunch
They don’t call you senpai anymore and they talk to you normally
And you no longer stare at the blood on their uniform
Night Guard Mark prayed you wouldn’t try to kill him
He might have PTSD from Freddy Fazbear’s
Those animatronics left a mark…
It took a little while for him to trust you not to harm him
When he did, HOO BOY is he a chatterbox
He has so many theories about the Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza Chain
Dark’s told you not to talk about the actual lore. It might break his spirit
You get very worried sometimes
He looks like that one picture of Charlie Day. You know the one.
Sometimes he gets panic attacks
You wrap him in a cocoon of your limbs and wings to ground him
He likes you for that
You hang out, playing games and watching movies. No horror. Absolutely NONE
You can handle him, and he likes you
Dr. Plier was curious about you
He wondered how you felt about… everything
He asked if you were ok one day and you broke down
He felt guilty and bought you ice cream
He sees you as a sort of… psychological experiment
Like he asks you very strange and slightly personal questions
Ok, very personal, but he’s a therapist, what can you do
He eventually stopped the interrogation and talked to you normally
You get along fine, but it’s kind of the same situation as Dr. Iplier
Chef Iplier wasn’t really all that phased
You were surprised by this because… well… wings
But he just… treats you normal, for the most part.
Sometimes he’ll pet your wings, but only if you let him
He loves how soft your feathers are
He doesn’t make that his entire perception of you
It’s a nice change of pace
He tries to cook for you sometimes, but uh. It doesn’t go well
You’re still confused as to how someone can set a glass of water on fire
You mostly just order take out
You hang out like normal people
Which neither of you are, but you’re both fine with that
Paranormal Investigator Mark is obsessed with figuring you out
Nearly had a panic attack when he first saw you
He wanted to prove the supernatural exists, but he didn’t have a lot of evidence before
And then your mystical-ass came along
Like the Jims, he tried to get pictures, and they all ended up blurry
He threw a fit over it, and you felt kinda bad
You tried to take the picture yourself but it came out the same
He gave up after a while
He info dumps about paranormal stuff to you
It can last from 5 minutes to 5 hours
You do pay attention though, and that makes him happy
He takes you on investigations sometimes
You don’t do much except break shit with those giant wings of yours
He stopped taking you on investigations
Cooliplier is not sure what to think
You have wings! Great! There’s absolutely nothing he can do about that
Not the most normal, but not the weirdest either
He tends to put on a tough-guy persona around new people
You were a lil intimidated
Then you became friends and mans did a full 180 around you
Went from “Your daughter calls me daddy too” to “I’ll have her home by 9 sir”
His personality is sort of a mix of the two
Catch you both screaming the lyrics to Mr. Brightside at 12:00 am
Took you to a mosh pit once
You got kicked out cause of the wings
He felt bad, but you had fun
He teaches you how to dance and roller skate
You also go for rides on his motorcycle
Once you just started flying while he was driving and it was the most fun shit ever
You’re “buds”, as he often tells you
Goopiplier likes you a lot
They like having another not-completely-human creature to talk to
I mean, some of the others aren’t exactly human…
But they’re not the best conversationalists…
Then again, neither is goop.
They mention the Dark Gods ONCE and suddenly no one wants to talk to them…
But you do!! Yay!!!
You mostly just hang out, do whatever
Watch movies, play games, or just talk
They like to draw you
They’re not very good, but you keep them all anyways
Sometimes they do… rituals. While you’re around
You are… a little scared, but that’s okay!
You have sleepovers and act like teenagers
You mock the others and then giggle, getting louder as you go
They’re not that funny, but you had to be there
Elder Jeremiah is terrified of you
He nearly pissed his pants when he saw you
He thought he was finally going to have to pay for his sins
He started crying, and you panicked
Why the FUCK was this 20-something-year-old well-dressed man crying at you???
He dropped his bike and fell to his fucking knees and begged for forgiveness
You felt very uncomfortable with the whole situation
You told him to get up bc he was dirtying up his pants
He eventually stopped crying and you told him you were not an angel
Also not a demon, as you said when he asked
He avoids you, mostly, still thinking you’re gonna drag him down to hell
He stopped the uh. The stealing since you came around
He will hang around/with you sometimes to see if you “reveal your true form”
You haven’t yet, and never will, BUT WHEN YOU DO, HE’LL BE THERE
He does think you’re very nice, though
Preistiplier thinks you’re an angel sent to assist him
He is doing holy work, it only makes sense that He would send a helper
He was disappointed, to say the least
He then came to the conclusion that you lost your memory of being an angel
You couldn’t exactly dispute it, since you don’t remember
So, he takes you on hunts
You don’t do much except make a bunch of fucking NOISE with your WINGS
He’d hoped you’d smite the demons
Or at least scare them, but they know you’re not an angel
He still takes you on hunts because, he’d never admit it, but he… gets scared
You promised not to tell a soul
You confess your sins to him sometimes
They’re usually not what he considers sins, but he listens anyways
He thinks you are a good person, and he enjoys conversations with you
Heistiplier was just normal around you
Well… as normal as he can be
You’d enjoy his company a lot more if he didn’t have such a god complex
You still like him a lot
He likes you too
Even if you did refuse to rob a bank with him
He’s a very… exciting person
Though you don’t really want to be around him when he gets upset
The entire world literally seems to revolve around what he does
He’s a drama queen, and completely feral
It’s worrying at times
You two are normal friends
Playing video games, watching youtube, etc. etc.
You listen to his stories and wonder how he's not dead yet
But you can admit, he's really fucking funny

genuine question. what the heck happens with FNAF after 4? what order are we supposed to play the games in/read the spinoffs for after that? is there anyone who makes lore summaries for the series that isn't Mattison Pattison?
You came to the right man. Explanation below
Order
G: 1, 2, 3, 4
B: The Silver Eyes, The Twisted Ones
G: Sister Location, Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Sim, Ultimate Custom Night, HELP WANTED, then the AR one I haven’t played or seen yet.
Alright, so. Scott Cawthon has said before that the first 4 games are kinda meant to be their own story, with the other tie in stuff coming in as another whole thing. The first books, The Silver Eyes and Twisted Ones and the other one, are like... a canon AU, with the first 2 books sticking very closely to the first 4 games. Same general events, just... shifted around a bit. Some of the stuff in it shows up in later games and here’s the parts that matter
1.) The Killer, the Purple Guy, has a name now. His name is William Afton. He’s a mess and I love him. Used to be a kinda jolly chunky guy who co-owned Freddy’s, killed kids, almost got found out but got away with it, comes back into town years later with a fake identity looking all skin and bones to... be a security guard at a mall, and I guess go into Freddy’s every few nights to just taunt the animatronics? He does a funny bunny dance. Also he’s obsessed with his co-owner, and wrote rambling diaries about him. Also he killed that co-owner’s daughter but shhhhhhhhhhhhhh
2. That Co-Owner, Henry. He’s... sad. His daughter is dead and he’s sad. Book Henry does some real weird stuff about it in book land, but, that doesn’t matter. Just know, Henry is Really Sad, doesn’t like that Will killed his daughter and also 5 other kids, and is not feeling the best right now.
3. Henry’s daughter, Charlotte, or Charlie! I... like her book version. But I’m not even touching that stuff and how she’s a character while being killed when she was, like, 3. Game canon, she’s dead puppet kid, that’s all that matters.
4. The Nightmares from 4 were just weird, kinda-hallucinations. If the kid had shot them with Gun it’d have been fine. The twisted ones are just alternate nightmare animatronics and they follow the Gun Rule so I assume that applies too.
5. If you know anything about Book Michael, ANYTHING at ALL, just forget it. There’s too many Michael’s and Mikes in this series, we don’t need the dead 7 year old getting mixed up in there.
So, that’s the two books that matter, and the one that doesn’t, boiled down to their essentials. Onto the games.
Sister location is next. It’s a stunning game, if you at all feel like you’d enjoy watching it, do it! But, the PLOT!
William Afton killed a kid Remotely with Robot, but accidentally killed his daughter Elizabeth! Oops! Years later, his son, Michael Afton, goes down to the storage area that the robots that his dead kid sister is possessing are being housed and tries to put her spirit back together... somehow, I think. 
Anyways, Lizzy is smart, and puts herself back together by mashing all the animatronics together into a spaghetti thing called Ennard, but doesn’t have the best eyesight as an animatronic. 
So, she mistakes Michael, her brother, for her Murder Dad, and scoops out his internal organs, crawls inside his boy, and walks out of the facility wearing her brother’s corpse like a skin suit. So, Ennard’s existence is an “innard” pun.
At some point, corpse rots, Lizzy and Animatronic Co vomit themselves out of his body and into a sewer to become a Sewer Spaghetti Animatronic. Michael picks up his Boneless Body and walks home, Somehow Still Present In His Rotting Corpse, and gets so mad at his dad over it that he spends 5 nights at each Freddy’s trying to hunt his dad down and chew him a new one for Everything He’s Done.
Elizabeth gets kicked out of Body Spaghetti, builds herself a better Baby animatronic, and also becomes a punk rock goth teen. Michael, meanwhile, finds his dad at Fazbear’s Fright from 3 and torches the place to kill him, but that sadly doesn’t work. Michael doesn’t know that though, so thinking he should get a nice, relaxing reward for a job well done, invests all his Corpse Money into staring a Freddy’s franchise of his own.
Enter, Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Sim. Also idk if I mentioned it yet but this series takes place in Utah (at least according to book land), but the Aftons are all very posh british accent wise, and you need to know that.
So, LONG STORY SHORT. Henry, that co-owner from the original Freddy’s in the books that never showed up in a game before? He’s here now. Basically, Henry put up ads for making a new Freddy’s, knowing Michael would be the only person reckless/dumb/brave/indifferent enough to sign up, and simulated a fake pizzeria filled with fake children, to attract all the remaining animatronics (who want to really murder those fake kids) to it, so Henry Could Finally Finish This, for once and for all.
As Michael designs his dream pizzeria from his little office in the vents, Baby, Spaghetti Ennard that is now 100% Funtime Freddy (aka best freddy) Controlled, Springtrap (now Feral and called Scraptrap), and this Cool New Guy Called Lefty show up to much on those kids! Lefty is... well, it’s Henry forcing the puppet, his daughter, into a Beartrap. A Bear Suit trap. So, animatronic-inception.
Once they all get there, if you learn all the secrets from the creepy attractions, Henry decides to call the series quits, and sets literally everyone, you included, on fire. Also himself, he was in the vents too. He tells Will to go to hell, then lets you all peace out in the flames together, like One Big Happy Afton Family + the man your dad was obsessed with for years and his kid + a screaming bear
And then Ultimate Custom Night. it’s just William Afton in hell. He’s not like, alive or anything. No. He’s just dead, in hell, and suffering.  There’s not that much plot tbh. It’s just hell. It’s a nice hell.
The Vr game, Help wanted, is... i really don’t know what the whole plot consensus is on this one yet? You Play Game, but Uh Oh, William Afton cursed a floppy disk and now he’s in game in fursona ai form trying to take over your mind so he can do more murder. He succeeds with one lady called Vanny, and like, idk much from there. I like the art of him acting as like, a sleepover-delirious best friend to Vanny though. Also Vanny is also a furry. Her fursona is white rabbit. 
I have to stop it there because i can and will ramble about this for forever. If you want I can ramble for longer if need be. Let me know if the need is be.
