Something possessed me to paint last night. Not typically the style showcased on this blog as there is a DEFINITE preference for a comic style, but hey it helps to branch out and try new things, right? Also, produced another comic page and experimented with colored lighting this time around. There’s those pages where Deliah is tucked in by Springtrap, so here’s the ADC rendition.

CW | HEAVY BLOOD I’ve drawn the aftermath of William’s springlock failure before—which you can find here—though I really wanted to try my hand at the actual scene itself. After downloading a blood brush and getting the paneling in order, I gave it a whirl.

[a-deceptive-calling]

William related assortments bc he is a brainworm 1, First springlock failure recovery.

2, ‘Canon’ William Slander

3, Who’s narrative is it, really?

4, William questioning a weird design Michael drew

Charlie when she finds out Springtrap was stolen 😭 I haven’t really done much w/ The Puppet, but I’d like to imagine her spirit is leading the ghost children to shake up Delz and Nick about Springtrap’s true nature. She’s also trying to free the tormented spirits with the gang’s help, even if her puppet body has withered greatly since then. Speaking of which, some more major lore; Once Henry got acquitted of his charges, they immediately got to work on making Fazbear’s Fright the death trap, after all, the building is already prone to fire as is so might as well use it to end everything. Of course, they didn’t account for Delz and Harry foiling their plans… ”…Michael?” ”Mr. Emily?” ”Where’s the animatronic?”

Springtrap is able to use his FNAF 3 Ambiance sound as a form of echolocation. This is particularly effective within indoor spaces, and great for cheating at Hide and Seek. After all, he’s only playing the game to study where Delz can possibly hide when he finally enacts his attack…

COMIC REDRAW + ADC LORE

The story of Freddy Fazbear’s in ADC is seen as an urban legend. The growth of the internet allowed for the case to gain a devoted following across the country, and through what users discovered, allowed for Henry Emily’s case to be re-opened and finally, have the innocent man acquitted. Delz and Harry of course, saw the chance with Fazbear’s Fright opening soon to ride the trending wave and make it big, maybe even solving the mystery of who the real Fazbear Killer was; William managed to be 10 steps ahead by wiping any trace/evidence of him from the business when he took power after Henry’s arrest, leaving sources online just as conflicted. Unknowingly, Delz made a completely correct guess about the animatronic standing in front of her.

Are you willing to provide Bad Ending 2?

The phone rings… Your call is answered.

Hello? Oh, it’s you again. I see what you’re inquiring about, and I’m sure MNGT has plans to unveil this at some point in the future. It’s just, you know, getting things organized and within the budget. I am not sure how much I can tell you, but I will say this… Springtrap wins. Got it? Remember that. Alright, talk to you later man. The call ends.

Formalized designs for the Afton kids, accompanied by some Pre-‘83 William doodles. CC, who is Cassidy in this AU has a tendency to hide his face, usually with his plush of Fredbear he’s never separated from. William wants all of his children to be well dressed, their hair neatly combed, all with the exception of that pain in the arse named Michael. His favorite is definitely Elizabeth, I mean just look at her polite little smile. Totally not because she’s doing everything to please her father’s ego. Ironically however, the son he hated the most would be the one to survive in the end. Not only that, he takes on a similar face as William when he gets older and thankfully none of the serial killer tendencies…

[a-deceptive-calling]

Soooo… they put Springtrap in Dead by Daylight. I got inspired by his new voice line “I’m the fun one!” and thought about how William would advertise himself as the new owner of Freddy Fazbear’s once Henry is out of the picture. Speaking of which, serious ADC story moment

I’ll let you connect the dots this time, MNGT wants me to do one of those Vague Lore things, or whatever.

[a-deceptive-calling]

Nice argument. However, JUNIOR ATTACK

YOU ARE ALL GAY

Happy Pride month, from your local Aro-Ace!

A little reimagining of the Hide & Seek scene at Harry’s house. Delz hides underneath the Kitchen table, before spotting Springtrap about to change the name of the game… He might as well get two birds with one stone. I love making this horror rabbit looking scary in dark lighting it’s so fun.

BIG Remnant Lore dump ahead Remnant in this AU is a conspiracy theory that gained traction during the Alien craze of the 50’s, but is rumored to have been the reason why ancient cultures performed human sacrifices. Remnant is said to grant eternal life, but is highly addictive and contains similar degenerative properties to the body akin to radiation exposure—To explain Michael’s condition. It is a mystical substance that can only be extracted post-mortem for a brief period, and is most ripe when the subject is under distress before their death. NOTE; Agony does not exist in this AU. Remnant DOES NOT cause the spiritual possession of the animatronics. The ghosts being vengeful is just his skill issue of being a serial killer. William’s body reacted HORRIBLY to his first dose of Remnant. Probably because he drank a cup of it instead of using a syringe, but he felt like his body was being torn apart from the inside. As his addiction grew stronger, so did the dosage and the pain that came along with it, leading his body to age faster than normal.

At first, William’s consumption of Remnant was hardly noticable. Most assumed that his line of work of constantly being indoors was causing his skin to pale, and the stress of everything going on with Fazbears at the time was doing a number upkeeping his hair. Overtime however, his deterioration became increasingly obvious, especially before he was Springlocked again. Folks assumed Mr. Raglan was an elderly man on his last job and really needed to retire but was too stuborn or broke to do so, but looks can be quite… Deceptive. Get it chat In the end, his Remnant consumption allowed him to become Springtrap. Despite being a skeleton merged with a metal frame, he was still technically alive, better yet, undead. A big reason as to why he hibernated for 30 years is because of his own body needing to rot away so he can move the suit again.

Vanity “Vannie” Valentine

1/2 Bad Endings in ADC. This route is where Springtrap’s manipulation is fully successful, not only cutting off Delz completely from her friends and family, but she becomes a serial killer herself. In other words, she became inspired by William’s murders and harvests Remnant along side him. Her suit is one she stole from Harry’s brother, Matt, who is a fur suit builder. This one, was supposed to be an online commission ready to be shipped out before his death. After everyone in the central cast was killed, Delz went after the people who bullied her at school to extract her revenge and their Remnant. While Springtrap did spare her life, he’s only using her as a tool to collect more Remnant for himself. Once she outlives this purpose, he plans to dispose of her. Be careful who you call ugly in Middle School, they might turn out to be a serial killer.

[a-deceptive-calling]

A surprise visit. With my rewrite of Springtrap, I thought about how terrifying this scene from the original comic would be in ADC. The worst part is you wouldn’t even hear him enter the room…

Shout out to Junior, finally included it in one of these comics.
