#Gregory knows by now not to bring up Bonnie around Freddy

[chloesimaginationthings]

Abby has an important FNAF question for Glamrock Freddy

[meowbomb]

I don’t think who killed Bonnie matters but what caused it and who Bonnie was is more important.

Something I’ve always thought about in security breach was that Bonnie’s green room changed locations.

In security breach his green room was in rockstar row

However I think this was changed in ruin with this becoming his green room. The pause menu message even calls it Bonnie’s green room.

(I probably know this was probably a retcon but let me dream real quick.)

Of course they’d move his stuff into a spare room if Bonnie was decommissioned. However, how do we know if this was the case?

Most of the messages in security breach have no specific date on them. We just have to guess where they take place in the timeline based on the contents of the message.

I’m going on the wild idea that Bonnie was being slowly taken out of the spot light. Now you might ask “Bonnie was popular that kids asked about him, why would the company want him gone?”

It’s quite simple. In security breach and ruin, there’s no clear picture of who Bonnie really was. We have no idea what Bonnie was like. Sure, Freddy loves and grieves him but bear in mind, Freddy still considered Roxy, Chica and Monty as his friends despite the fact they were hunting down Gregory. He was still horrified with their fates even though they threatened Gregory because Freddy still saw good in them. The same goes with his relationship with Bonnie.

All the animatronics in the pizzaplex all act out in some form. They each have their problems. I think it’d be more strange if Bonnie wasn’t doing anything bad. Most of the animatronics have attacked staff bots: Roxy decapitates them, Chica attacked them for food, Moon (and probably Sun to a degree) rips endos and staff bots. Monty hasn’t been said to have attacked a staff bot but he has broken fences and Freddy was in safe mode during the game.

Besides don’t you think it’s quite interesting the bowling screens show Bonnie attacking the pins in an almost sadistic way?

That’s why they’d move Bonnie away from the spot light. If he’s becoming a major problem, Fazbear Entertainment does not want him to possibly damage their reputation further therefore they need to put a stop on him. They made first help wanted game to build their reputation back up and to play off past mistakes as “rumours”

The glamrocks contradict the personalities they were programmed with. Roxy is the cool one with a beauty salon but she has major insecurities. Chica is the fitness guru centred around food but has an impulse control issues and binge eats. Monty is a laid back rising rockstar yet has anger issues and stays away from shows.

But Bonnie? We don’t know. The stuff in Bonnie bowl is little to go off in all honestly and the most you could get was that he’s also this sorta laid back guy but is that really all?

It’s also really funny to note alligators, rabbits, wolves and chickens are mostly social animals meanwhile bears are more solitary except for a few.

If Bonnie was becoming a problem for the pizzaplex, fazbear entertainment would slowly relegate Bonnie to just a side show in Bonnie Bowl like how Monty was probably just a side thing in Gator Golf. They don’t want to risk anything with him. They no longer let Chica sing because of the risk of lawsuits after she did instead of trying to fix anything. If Bonnie is popular and held no risk, why wouldn’t they try to bring him back? Yeah Monty could be more profitable but Monty is just a side thing like the Daycare Attendant and DJMM compared to a popular member of the main band.

Fazbear entertainment wanted Bonnie gone. His decommissioning was the perfect opportunity and they took it. They just needed a replacement and Monty was the best option and next in line.

I’m not saying Bonnie was 100% evil or 100% good. But the circumstances and what drives something to attack him is interesting. Was it out of malicious intent? Self defense? Or an accident? Who knows. But the reason can change everything.

If you have not watch/played it do not read!

Rebuilt AU part 4

They were on the move

Sunny was making room in the daycare and collecting parts to help there friends

Roxy was look at the green rooms

And last but not least

Cassie was at the theater dressing room

She was looking everywhere though a bit scared of what will happen when she finds them

She was about to start a new place when she heard a crash

A locked door

She quickly put on the mask and the door was no longer there

Once throw she took it off coming back to reality and unlocked the door from the inside

She looked around was looked like an employees locker room

There was some thing red around the corner

She walk around exspecting to find Monty but instead found two long lost friends

Before where was a worn and torn purple bunny and Broken down and battered fox

Bonnie and foxy

Bonnie turned his head her way

‘Hay there little gal! What cha doing back here?’ Bonnie asked getting up and walking the best he could toward her

‘Tis be no place for a lacy’ foxy said standing up

‘I’m look for the animatics to bring back for repairs! Omg we can get you fixed! I hated it when you guy where taken out the band! But now-

Both Bonnie and foxy staired and watched as the girl ramble for at least 10 minutes before she stoped to breathe.

Then it hit them

‘How did ya get in here anyway? It’s been lock for years.” Bonnie asked shocked

Cassie then explained the mask and said she could lead them out

Bonnie and foxy were over joyed

They can leave

They can see there friends again

The follow Cassie out and looked in horror

This was dangerous for kids

Before Cassie got to far foxy picked her up and placed her on his shoulders to keep her safe and asked her to lead the way

When they got to the daycare cassie saw that Roxy had found chica

Foxy put cassie down in a safe area right before him and Bonnie where tackled by Roxy chica and sun

They where all in a pile when chica remebered cassie

Roxy had filled her in on what happened and immediately ran over and check her over

She felt so bad but she thought it was Gregory

Cassie giggles claiming she was ok

Meanwhile Roxy was filling in foxy and Bonnie on the incident

After every one was on the same page

‘Know all we need is Monty!’ Sun said

‘Why not Freddy?’ Bonnie asked

‘Freddy was helping Gregory. He left us.’ Roxy growled out

‘What!’ Foxy and Bonnie said angerly

They could believe it

How could he do this

They all desided to rest and look for Monty later hopefully they can find him fast.

Hello! I really love your five nights at Freddy's security breach works! The roommate breach series is just *chef's kiss*

I was wondering if you are still up for continuing it? Cause I got a request... feel free to ignore this if you aren't up for it. I can totally understand 😁

The request was the reaction of all the animatronics to the reader fixing and bringing back glamrock bonnie and foxy. This takes place after the pizzeria burns down and the reader, in an attempt to find parts to fix chica, Roxy and monty, stumbled across another floor underground and they find the bodies of Foxy and Bonnie (dismantled and broken but not burnt) and don't think about repairing them until they fix the others.

And now that the glamrock crew is alright, the reader goes back to the underground floor and brings Bonnie and foxy to their house to fix them (the other glamrocks don't know that the reader did so and the reader didn't tell them because they were scared of getting their hopes up high for nothing).

Thank you!

Wah, hello! Thank you for the wonderful comments! I'm glad you enjoy my little series I got going! I haven't been consuming much FNAF content as of late. TWST and Splatoon have me in a chokehold. Even so, this was still so much fun to write!

I did finish and review this at like five in the morning. If you see any mistakes, no you didn't.

I hope you enjoy it my friend!

Reader needs some better self preservation skills and should know not to jump right into a sinkhole but it turns out to be worth it to see their new robotic family happy.

You adjust the black surgical mask obscuring your face. Most of the security cameras around have been long since deactivated, though you didn’t want to take any chances.

It was well into the night. Finally having put Gregory to bed you decided it would be the perfect time to head out. Pulling a large backpack from your car’s passenger seat, you pull the hood of your jacket up and get out.

In front of you lies the charred remains of the Mega Pizza Plex. It amazed you that it took this long for it to burn down. You click on your flashlight and head for the rubble. Those robots better be grateful that you’re digging through incredibly dangerous areas for them. Not that they knew you were here, but still.

After a few hours of searching, you were able to procure some new casing, extra spare parts, and best of all a new set of eyes for Roxanne. For the time being, you’ve given her a pair of eyes you had laying around. They were many, many years old. Possibly older than you, but they worked just fine…Mostly.

It will be morning soon, you still haven’t found everything on your list. You still needed new boards for Sun and Moon along with wires for Chica. Perhaps you could come back tomorrow, what you were able to find was plenty for now.

“Thirty more minutes…then I’ll go.” You mutter to yourself.

With the Sun on the horizon, you put your flashlight in your bag. You haphazardly push some rubble around. One particular plank of wood gives you some grief. After battling with the plank it finally gives out, along with the debris surrounding it. You were able to step back just in time, almost falling into the sinkhole.

That’s the fourth time you’ve almost lost your life to a Fazbear Entertainment related incident.

You pull your flashlight out and click it on once again. Even with the stream of light, it wasn’t enough to see into the hole. Who knows what could be down there.

Guess you were going to find out.

Taking a moderately sized rock, you toss it down. After a few seconds there’s a sharp sound. It doesn’t seem to be too far of a drop. The worst that could happen is your ankle giving out. If you die, Gregory can have all your stuff.

Metal beams and planks of charred wood are a makeshift step down. Every bone in your body tells you to go back, but you aren’t listening. You’re too tired to be smart.

You maneuver your way through cracks and crevices, occasionally getting stuck. For a while there’s only been debris, rubble, and an ominous statue of the original Freddy. Along with the occasional rundown generator. It would be great if they were able to turn on again. Then you would actually be able to get some more light. Nothing really peaks your interest so far.

With a huff, you turn to leave. “This was a waste of my time.” You tsk. However you stop when a flickering light suddenly turns on behind you.

Looking back, your eyes widen.

There in bright red, blinking letters read ‘Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza Place.’

They built the Pizza Plex on top of the old location?! This violates so many codes and regulations!

A shiver runs down your spine. This definitely felt like a set up.

Wait…Imagine what you could find in there! What if you found some parts to fix the Glamrocks, or even some old relics of the past for your collection.

Taking a deep breath, you open one of the doors. Letting that puff of air out, you speed walk to the next set of doors. There could be anything on the other side. Your heart was pounding in your ears as you opened the door and brace for something to jump at you.

Nothing came.

Looking around, it really was the old establishment. There were tables and chairs strewn about, wires draped here and there. Light fixtures that have fallen over the years. In some corners lay mechanical equipment, like this place has become some makeshift storage unit.

Stepping through the facility, you couldn't shake the feeling of being watched. No matter where you walked it felt like someone was peering directly into you. Like someone, or something, was breathing directly down your neck.

You shine your light around the room. There’s nothing. Perhaps you’re just paranoid.

Most of the doors in the old pizzeria are locked. You make a mental note to come back with a crowbar. What you’re doing is already illegal, why not stack up a few more charges. After testing many, many doors, one finally creaks open. It leads to a dark and dingy room. The air itself feels sticky and wet.

There is little lighting in the room, a dim, flickering emergency light is the only source. Shining your flashlight, you can see the room is covered in cobwebs and a thick layer of dust. Cardboard boxes are piled up high. It feels as if they could collapse at any minute.

You tiptoe through the damp room. Every so often you could hear a wet squelch from underneath your feet. There’s still that looming feeling of being watched, now accompanied by the sharp creaking of metal. Though no matter where you look, there’s nothing. Maybe it was a mistake coming down here.

As you walk deeper into the room, there in the far back is a door. Wiping the thick layer of dust from its sign reveals the words ‘Scrap Storage: Authorized Personnel Only!’ You set your hand on the dirty door knob and take a breath. Twisting your hand, to your surprise, it opens! Shining your light into the room your eyes immediately land on something. “No way…”

There in front of you sit the Glamrock versions of Foxy and Bonnie. Your boss told you they were shipped off to a warehouse. They didn’t tell you the warehouse was right under the Pizza Plex. Their casing has become dull and cracked. In some spots you could see patches of mold. Every part of them has rotted away, unsalvageable.

Walking up to the lifeless body of Foxy you begin to examine him. Hopefully, by some miracle, their A.I chips could still be intact. In his slumped position, it was easy to access his neck. Clicking open the port, out pops the chip. Looking it over it seems to be in one piece. There’s no visible cracks or rusting. Slipping the A.I into your pocket, you do the same to Bonnie. With something this valuable, you should start heading back home now. You spent so much time down here, Gregory’s probably already up. You’ll grab him some breakfast while you’re out.

Too busy thinking about what to get Gregory, you fail to notice the mass of robotic tendrils coming your way. The ever present creaking of metal grows closer and closer. It thinks you’ll make the perfect target. Too wrapped up in your own world to notice your upcoming demise. With you in the doorway, it lunges at you.

Thud!

A loud, crashing slam shakes you from your thoughts. You look back at the recently shut door. Perhaps those boxes finally fell over. Good thing you left just in time. Now to get some food and start blueprinting. Unknowingly to you, that was the fifth instance you almost lost your life to a Fazbear Entertainment related incident.

It wasn’t easy. Building two animatronics from scratch was hard enough. It was amazing that you were even able to do it at all. Keeping it a secret from your seven roommates was even harder.

You put all your blood, sweat, tears, and even more blood into them. You were able to hook up their consciousness into other hardware while you built their bodies. Foxy and Bonnie even seemed to remember you fondly. You offered to bring the others into your workshop for a reunion. Though, you were turned down. They said, no matter how long it takes, they didn’t want their friends to see them like this. It took you a while to get them all repaired, so long that you were able to fix the other Glamrocks. So long that you’ve missed a lot of bonding time with Gregory that you’ll always feel guilty for. All this work was going to be worth it for when you showed the others.

“Alright, you guys can come in now!” You stand in front of a tarp in your workshop. Each of the animatronics and Gregory shuffle in. Once everyone is in attendance you speak up once again. “I know I haven’t been around a lot lately. Which I am very, very sorry for. If what I’m about to show off doesn’t make up for it, I’ll let you guys ask anything of me. Now I-”

“You’re rambling again Techie. Get to the point!”

You sheepishly smile and turn to the tarp. “Right, thank you Roxanne. Without further adieu, I present,” The tarp falls to the ground revealing two very familiar faces. “Tadah! Bonnie and Foxy!”

Silence.

Neither group says anything. Did they not want to see each other? Did you mess up?

“Do you guys not like the surprise? I thought you would..!”

You were abruptly cut off as Chica leapt towards her friends. She brings both of them into a tight embrace. Her voice box produces sobs and static. Following close behind is Freddy grabbing all three into a strong hold. Though not as loud as Chica, a few sniffles could be heard from the bear.

“Aye, enough of the waterworks. Is that anyway to greet an ol’ mate?” Foxy lightheartedly scolds, trying to hide the slight waver in his voice. Though Chica and Freddy can’t do much to stop their cries.

Bonnie, aloof as ever, does not cry. Yet he looks at his friends with eyes of joy and perhaps even adoration. The bunny peers over to Roxy, Monty, and Sun. The three of them all stood to the side. They either felt it wasn’t their place to join or felt they didn’t deserve it. Wordlessly, Bonnie extends his arm out from the hug.

Adjusting his glasses, Monty walks over and slings a single arm into the group. You could almost hear the creaking of his endoskeleton as he’s fully brought in. Bonnie has always been programmed with such incredible strength.

From the corner of your eye, you can see Roxy fiddling with her claws. She has her tail tucked between her legs, both literally and figuratively. You set your hand on her back, feeling her jolt underneath your palm. With a gentle push, you guide her towards the other animatronics. Freeing up one of her arms, Chica eagerly grabs onto her.

Not one to be left out from such displays of affection, Sun quickly jumps in. “Group hug!” Their long limbs were perfect for encasing each and everyone of them.

To the side stood you and Gregory. You pat yourself on the back for such a touching reunion.

“Is this why you missed so many of my soccer games?”

With a bashful chuckle, you set a hand onto Gregory’s head. “Can I buy back your love? We can go to that restaurant you like.”

“Hm, I don’t know you missed a lot of games. I think that’s gonna cost a new video game as well.” This little guilt tripper!

“...Alright, Greg.” You can already hear your wallet weeping.

The joined chatter of the animatronics come to a halt and Foxy breaks away. Using his hook, he lifts up his eyepatch to get a good look at Gregory. “So, my eyes are correct. It be a child! I haven’t seen one since me last voyage. What might your name be, lad?”

The pirate fox begins to entertain Gregory, going on about his adventures and letting him be his new best mate. Sun joins in too, having always wanted to go out on adventures.

You’re pulled away from the adorable moment as the wind is squeezed out of your lungs. Looking behind you, there stands Chica nuzzling her beak into your head. “Oh, I’m so happy! I can’t even begin to thank you enough! You really built them all by yourself? You’re really the one to bring my friends back?”

“It was no problem, really.” That was a lie. Every part of reconstructing them was a problem. “Yes, I did build them from the ground up. While they won’t be as high tech as they used to be, I just wanted to bring them back. It was really hard to keep this a surprise. You would’ve loved seeing me put Bonnie in a wet floor bot.”

A strong, sturdy hand pushed down on your head. “That’s enough, technician.” Bonnie didn’t want anyone knowing of that!

Another set of arms joins Chica in halting your breathing. “Superstar, you did such an amazing job. If there is anything I can do to repay you back for this, I’ll do it. This means so much to us.”

“You can start by letting me breathe…” Freddy and Chica are quick to pull away, apologizing for their rough grip. “I don’t need any thanks you guys. Just seeing you happy is enough for me…but if you really mean it, you guys have been lacking on your chores.”

“If that is what you want, Superstar. I will do them all right now.” Freddy’s large frame begins to walk out of your workshop.

“Freddy, wait! I was just joking!”

Amongst the commotion, Monty comes to a realization. “Wait, wait, wait. Hold it right there, Technician. Did you say Bonnie was in a wet floor bot? Oh, I gotta hear this whole story!” The gator lets out a bellowing laugh as his bunny companion groans.

(Credits to @gal-with-pastels for the wet floor bot Bonnie idea!)

[clanwarrior-tumbly]

any headcanons about friendy and kind hare animatronic s/o (who is for some reason fully immune to the afton (alter ego) virus) with freddy and gregory’s help trying to fix and make monty, Roxanne and chica come back fully to their senses and free them completly without destroying them and manages to do it with success in a quite unexpected way like he/she/they/xem/whatever asked to gregory play an song from an abandoned and lost smartphone they found to cheer the situation while freddy plays along side the song guess what happened? while the 4 virus infected animatronics where tied up and listened to the song in their eyes turned and glowed purple and they began twich and scream in a voice which completely aren’t theirs (glitchtrap’s/William’s voice) after 15 minutes their eyes exibited an purple “error” and ”self-deleting” menssages in their eyes before they got knock out for 30 minutes and miraculousy waking up back to their senses and fully virus free! showing that music and some others similar or shares the similar rhythm and audio frequency for some reason has an extreme unwanted effect on the virus leading it to self-destruct without giving traces like “fully exorcising a demon from a person then slay it”?

I gotta say this idea is SUPER big brained I love it ...........

"You sure this rebar will hold them?” Gregory looks to the aggressive Glamrock trio tied up in bundles of metal, uncertain.

Roxanne was complaining loudly about her hair, while Chica whined about being hungry, and Monty thrashed around and snapped his jaws.

Yep. They were still lost, taken over by that virus that amplified their worst traits. They even yelled at Freddy when he tried to calmly talk to him, saying hurtful things.

You (a hare-based animatronic who didn’t get infected), knew they didn’t mean it. They were even confusing you for Bonnie, with Monty in hysterics over that day.

But it finally convinced Freddy that they weren’t themselves, though you had an idea on how to help them, and you explained the plan to him. It was really just a theory...you weren’t sure if it would even work. But you had to try.

“It will, but not for long. We have to do this now.” You hopped over to Gregory, opening your chest cavity to reveal a smartphone you retrieved from lost and found. “This device has a playlist of the band’s original songs..like this one! Make sure the wireless connection is on and hit play when I say so.”

“Uh, okay..?” He takes the phone and connects it to a speaker, confused as Freddy returns with his mic. “What’s music gonna do again?”

“..hopefully bring them back. If not then..I don’t know what will.”

“But all we can do is try, right?” The bear beams with hope, making you smile back at him.

“Right. Now remember: no matter how they react, do not stop singing. Just pretend they’re...a bunch of angsty teens who can’t shut up.”

“...that’s kind of mean-”

“Freddy.”

“Okay, okay. I promise I won’t stop singing.” His expression turns serious. “I’m ready.”

You tell Gregory to hit play, and both of you hide behind one of the metal fences just in case anything goes wrong.

Freddy stood in front of his bandmates as they still struggled in their metal binds, his heart full of determination as he began singing.

They all perk up at the familiar music--and their leader’s loud and proud voice as it didn’t waver, not even as they started taunted him.

“Is this all ya got, Fatbear?!! Singing that stupid song?!! Some leader you are!!”

“TRAITOR!! Just give us the kid!!!”

“We’re only trying to help!! Why do you hate us, Freddy?!!!”

Yet it wasn’t long before something happened.

Their eyes began glowing purple one by one. And you, Freddy, and Gregory heard them emit these horrid noises--like hoarse glitchy screams that weren’t even their own voices.

Obviously it jarred Freddy, who was afraid of hurting his friends, but he kept going, not stopping for even a moment.

Soon the song ends, and they’re still in agony--but quieter as the purple glow began to fade and their temperaments haven’t changed.

“We need another song.” You urged Gregory to swipe to the next one, and he did, while Freddy sang that, too.

Over the span of 15 minutes, Freddy was singing songs and the corrupted trio was screaming as the virus got overwhelmed by the barrage of similar music frequencies.

As the last one concluded, Gregory noticed error messages flickering in their eyes, along with some weird computer jargon he didn’t fully understand. 

But you did and looked on with awe. “See that? It’s forcing a system reboot on all of them!”

Meanwhile, the bear was out of breath, but he smiled brightly, relieved as they all shutdown. “You were right, [y/n]! It worked! They should reactivate in approximately..half an hour.”

Together you both work on untying them and dragging them to different corners of the room, waiting for them to wake up.

Exactly 30 minutes later, they stumble out into the atrium, confused and dazed. They seemingly forgot what happened.

But that didn’t matter. You and Freddy immediately hugged them, grateful to have them back.

It’ll be awkward explaining the situation between them and Gregory, knowing how paranoid the poor kid’s probably gonna be. Though somehow things work out in the end.

Glamrock Freddy headcanons Glamrock Freddy headcanons GLAMROCK FREDDY HEADCANONS GLAMROCK FREDDY HEADCANONS

GLAMROCK FREDDY HEADCANONS

PLEASE???

Oh you want bear dad? Sure, here’s ur juice

Freddy’s programming is slightly different from the others. His base code makes him act a lot more compassionate and gentle, mainly because as the main face of the PizzaPlex he handled kids a lot more

This however takes a lot of processing power so it takes more energy to run. Also the reason why Vanny’s hack didn’t work on him as she didn’t know his code wasn’t also universal

This code is also why Bonnie couldn’t be easily repaired as the circuitry to run it was badly damaged

Sometimes he uses the hatch to surprise the other Glamrock’s with things. Like Bringing Roxy more of her plushes, sneaking Chica pizza or trying to find things Monty can use as a real stress reliever

The ear wiggle is a thing he does to be goofy and comfort crying kids. Did it to Gregory to make him feel safe. Also does it to the other animatronics when they are down

He bonks his own nose as a stress thing. Like if he feels he could’ve improved the performance more he’s just thinking and you’ll hear a lot of honks from his green room

Is slightly scared of the daycare attendant just because he met Moon first during a power outage

Is the dad of the group but like the mom friend. Dotes on the other bots and gives them pep talks (especially to Roxy and Monty)

Was programmed to remember Foxy and obviously misses Bonnie. Was ashamed that he showed a little disappointment when Roxy wasn’t like Foxy.

Tried to get into Golfing with Monty but kinda got scared after Monty kept “accidentally” swinging to close to him

Keeps Bonnie’s old bass pic in his green room in hopes he gets recommissioned

So literal, like everything goes over his head. Monty and Roxy abuse this while Chica thinks it’s cute.

Gay gay homosexual gay

Awful at bowling and very upset he never got better at it

Has a habit of just wandering the mall and being in places he shouldn’t. “Freddy why are you in the Freezer?” “I am chilling :)”

Treats adults and kids the same. Like he’s just as goofy and friendly and has picked up some parents. It’s endearing and startling. We are all children in the eyes of Dadbear

DJ Music Man is like… They are like two wine moms when around each other. Vents to him

Has run out of power in the dance floor. He does not like to talk about it.

For some reason he thinks the little music men are cute. Treats them like weird dog things

Secretly wants to be Monty’s favorite cause he can’t help but project Bonnie onto him. Feels bad cause he doesn’t want this to be the only reason

Wishes he could play the games in the PizzaPlex but it is against the rules. Also kinda jealous he doesn’t have his own area like Roxy or Monty

Guards are nicer to him just because he has cried after one of them got on him for being out too late and it bummed him out so bad he cried and then the others got upset and now there’s a rule to not yell at the bear

I could go on about ideas I have about these guys and especially this bear but I’m not trying to write a novel.

[madcatdaderpydrawer-blog]

Just a smorgedge bordge of the “Bonnie finds Sun and Moon and decides to help them post disassemble Vanny ending twin dads au” thing.

- Bonnie had been in the bowels of the Pizza plex for a while and probably either knows how to get out and doesn’t think it would be worth it to expose that he’s still alive after he was replaced, or doesn’t know and has been looking for so long that he just made a home down there.

- This changes of course when the new newer robots basically crash into his little man hut area. They are in horrible condition as is to be expected, so he has to do some repairs to make sure they actually function. Not to say they aren’t still horribly destroyed; They are, but Sun’s chest isn’t COMPLETELY torn open with his wires everywhere. 

- Bonnie basically reacted as if they were his children, because really he is considered to be older then them. He saw them when they were first made, so he knows how.. chaotic Moon used to be. He met them around THAT age. (That’s also the same time period Moon asked Sun if he could eat a bowling ball, so it checks out). He found it funny how Moon is so sarcastic now too, and how much dad energy he contains. Sun is definitely more energetic then when they first met too.

- They both want to get back up the Pizza plex, which Bonnie replies saying that they can go back up but he’s staying there.

- Yeah they’re not going to let that slide. They just found out the friend they thought was dead wasn’t, and they basically pestered him into coming up with them.

- “I have literally already been replaced” “We’ll hide you in the storage room, that’s where we found Gregory!” “Who??”

- So they explained what happened, their little adventure with Gregory, (the many brushes with death-), and how they got damaged.

- It was... a lot to say the least. He was pretty surprised to see that Moon had gotten so close to Monty, due to the newly found dad energy. Not because of anything severe, but because snarky and easily angered don’t go well. But they were still friends, just the kind of friends that never stop making digs at each other and bringing up the past to embarrass the shit out of them. I 100% think that Monty didn’t decommission Bonnie. 

- They finally managed to convince Bonnie to come with them when Sun brought up how much Freddy missed him (that gay motherfucker).

- With Monty and Bonnies playful jackass relationship in mind, and knowing how close of friends he and Moon is (friends, perhaps, depends on the context. The way Moon spoke about him probably made it seem more then that lmao), he decided to fuck with him a bit so when Monty ran over after hearing that the missing bots had re-emerged Bonnie just picked Moon up under the armpits like one of those cat pictures and handed him to Monty while saying “This yours?” and it flustered the gator and caused Moon to sputter incoherently in flustered rage. Monty still accepted the exchange and picked him up though. I really want to draw this if anyones interested.

- Freddy asked Bonnie why he didn’t come up earlier if he’s been alive for so long. Bonnie basically admit that he came up solely because the two attendants were pestering him, though he was happy that he got forced in the end. Sun added from behind him that “He agreed after I told him about you Freddy :D”. Bonnie did not appreciate that, Monty cackled in the background.

AU idea part 3: A bit of an epilogue

1/2 This ended up not being so short so I have to cut it in two parts I'm sorry.

Pizzaplex is okay and dandy, no fire, everyone's made up, past wounds are healed. Old Man Afton is alive no longer and Vanny was arrested for her crimes

Gregory is in Parts and Service with Bonnie to try and pick out old Foxy parts to put him back together so Sun and Moon can be separated but they need someone to work the daycare until then and through testing to see if they're alright on their own. They're not used to being apart.

"I never thought I'd spend a whole hour rummaging through old robot guts with a rabbit." Gregory kind of hates this but he gets to ask Bonnie more questions about his past so he isn't complaining. Why did Freddy miss him so much? He doesn't really remember Bonnie in the band given his age, hell he didn't even know what this place WAS until a few weeks before the whole teaming up with Freddy and kinda almost murdering all of his friends.

"Say Bonnie?"

"Yeah Rockstar?"

Rockstar. That's right he calls him Rockstar, he's gotten used to Freddy's superstar nickname, weird hearing someone else call him something besides his name.

"Why did Freddy miss you so much? And who is this Foxy guy anyway?" Foxy was decommissioned a long time ago, five years today. The purple bunny smiles, but there's a sadness in it.

"Well to answer your first question, Freddy and I are more than friends. Boyfriends if you will.." He looks at Gregory almost a bit scared, Gregory just looks at him confused.

"Okay? Awesome you kiss and stuff. What else? Who is this Foxy guy?" Bonnie pulls an eye patch out of the box he's searching.

"Foxy was a dear old friend. He was decommissioned long before I was, though his was purposeful. His whole pirate gimmick just didn't fit anymore, he looks a bit out place among rockers. Sea shanties also annoyed a lot of parents so soon enough we said our goodbyes..and we never saw him again. Then I was decommissioned but they didn't find a replacement for a long time. Now we have Roxy, you ask me she certainly fits the rocker girl style."

He keeps looking before he finds and old hook, Gregory has a peg leg. "Sorry for not really..reacting. I haven't known any of you long, it's not like I grew up with you guys and I've never really had anyone to miss. Orphan and all."

Bonnie puts a hand on Gregory's shoulder. "You have us now Gregory. We'll make this as much a home for you as we can."

Gregory gives the rabbit a small smile, he touches the hand on his shoulder. He has someone for once in his life.

"Alright. We have his parts, let's find his casing." Gregory's more ready than he was before.

Bonnie knows just who would keep five year old casing just in a time like this. Freddy and Roxy.

Bonnie barges in the door with Gregory in toe.

"Look familiar Superstar?" He tosses the eye patch at the orange bear and he smiles.

"You need his casing right? I knew you'd come for it." He digs around in a little secret compartment he has that no one knows about, not even Chica who's been around the longest. He pulls up a familiar red skull and body.

"I couldn't part with it.." Freddy admits this like he's embarrassed, Bonnie chuckles and takes it off his hands.

"We'll bring him back don't worry." Bonnie kisses the bears cheek. "There are children present."

"We've done worse and you know it."

Gregory aggressively clears his throat.

"Right, right coming. See you later Fred Bear! Gregory onward to Roxy's room!"

Glamrock Foxy and Glamrock Bonnie have been decommissioned from the Pizzaplex for a while now in my Au.

The original Glamrock band all sang, with freddy being the lead, the others supporting on with their own voice and then a follow up with instruments. Not like it is now, where Freddy does not share the mic, he is not allowed to.

Some info about Glamrock Foxy and Glamrock Bonnie in my Au where Michael afton dual wields these robots like a lightsaber

Glamrock Foxy

The first to be decommissioned and quick to be forgotten. Barley anybody remembers the once fan favourite pirate fox who could play practically any instrument as well as sing.

He was the first to go, yet Roxane who technically was his replacement did not show up before Monty got placed. Monty technically speaking was placed to handle the golf course and a backup animatronic but he still never got to the spotlight. Roxane was in the works and his spot was saved for her. So Monty had to get creative..

Foxy is often compliant to let Mike take the lead in every action. Often refusing to surface when the others wish to speak to him. He holds a bit of a grudge. Freddy, Bonnie and Chica never looked for him. Then again there was not much of him left to find, and not like the others were allowed to come look for him.

He is a very tall figure, built tall and rather strong. Easily the biggest and tallest glamrock, even with him being put back together by scrap, even Monty is scared to square up.

He does not do the pirate stuff much anymore, he speaks normaly without the pirate lingo, occasionally switching to it in the presence of little kids but with Michael around he does it even less.

Michael seems to hold a grudge againts Foxy in some way. Foxy does not understand this, because why would Michael pick him if he did not like him? If only he knew the terror his face could bring.

Foxy can handle small children pretty well, as that is his main function. With Michael around, it makes it harder. Though the spirit is often content to let Foxy handle delicate and sensitive situations surrounding Gregory.

All of then original glamrocks have some sort of chest hatch, even Chica though hers is far too small to carry a child. Foxy, being a tall and big fellow has enough space for a child, and is much faster and can reach more then Freddy. Granted he does run out of power quicker.

Glamrock Bonnie

The bass player of the group, and also a singer. Later replaced by Monty. Monty basicly framed for his disappearance. But the actual cause of his destruction was Vanny who needed a few... Spare parts for someone's dear old dad..

He is easy to forgive and just generally has a very upbeat yet realistic personality. He knows even the animatronics have faults.

Part time glamrock part time Bowling buddy, Bonnie is used to handle much older kids, teenagers and adults at the bowling ally when not on stage. Afterall the bowling ally was made to house and keep older kids entertained when the more childish activities no longer interested them.

His build is small yet stocky, easily the smallest out of the glamrock animatronics. When he is out about in the pizzeria assisting Freddy and Gregory with Michaels assistance he can be attacked by the other hacked animatronics. Unlike Foxy he is not scarry enough to scare them off or keep them occupied. He is pretty durable though.

He misses his band a lot, he holds no grudge even at the likes of Chica. When Michael is not at the wheel he is very chatty and friendly towards nearly everybody he meets.

He has a chest hatch, despite being small he is pretty stocky and sturdy so he can slot a small child like Gregory in there if necessary. He is smaller and can be attacked by other animatronics but is quiet and sneaky, using less power and having very quiet footsteps.

Probably gonna add to these later on, this is just some general info about them, may give them designs if I feel like drawing later on.

~Old Memories from an Old Friend..~

"I do not come up here anymore. I miss him..”

Freddy murmured to himself as he walked around the Bonnie Bowl attraction. As much as he wanted to help Gregory get away from the dangers that wandered through the halls of Pizzaplex, entering the “Bonnie Bowl” attraction even after so long left the robotic bear with feelings of dread he thought he managed to suppress long ago. But yet as he gazed up at the stage where his dear friend Bonnie once used to call home, he couldn’t help but feel that sense of dread and despair hit him like a truck. “Freddy! The hour’s almost up, we have to get moving! Come on!” Gregory called out to him from within his chest compartment, he was currently trying to get his companion moving to a Charging Booth as the final minutes until the next hour ticked down. Snapping out of his funk, Freddy quickly rushed out of the dining hall and began a frantic search for the nearest Charging Station, all the while Moondrop’s raspy voice was getting closer and closer as the minutes ticked on.

Hearing the hatch of the Charging Station close, both Gregory and Freddy were finally able to let out an exhale of relief. Now they just had to wait for the next hour to start and they could plan their next move. “Freddy, what happened back there? You just froze up all of a sudden.” Gregory asked after a few moments of silence. “I apologize Gregory, I don’t usually like to be inside the Bonnie Bowl attraction, it brings back memories I prefer not to remember. It’s been ages since I last walked through those doors, but I had to push those aside to keep you safe.” Freddy explained to Gregory. “Do you wanna talk about it Freddy?” Gregory asked a moment of processing it all.

“Well, Bonnie was like one of us. He was one of the animatronic characters made to entertain kids. Whether it was playing bowling or rocking out on his guitar, he really knew what he was doing. Don’t get me wrong, Monty and Chica know how to play the guitar but Bonnie..Bonnie knew how to “shred it up” as he called it. Every person that went in that bowling alley stayed there till closing, and every person that went in there enjoyed their time. He was one of the best ones here and by Fazbear, he loved his job.” Freddy explained as he reminisced on the happier days. “He even taught all of us how to play bowling, of course it had to be after the pizzaplex closed for the night and of course we usually got in trouble for being out of our charging stations, but the many rounds we spent playing bowling was worth the many scoldings we got.” Chuckling, Freddy couldn’t help but smile as he recalled all the times the technicians would yell up a storm every time they found the group in the bowling alley.

“Well, what happened to him? Where is he now?” Just hearing Gregory ask that question alone made the happy butterflies Freddy was feeling wither away, and his smile slowly faded away as he recalled that tragic day. “Well, it was like any other day here at the pizzaplex. We just got done performing our shows and celebrating the birthdays, like any other day. It was really tiring and I decided to get a quick recharge in before Bonnie would come and drag us all to the bowling alley, but as time went on I realized that..he was taking his sweet time getting ready. At first I assumed he was doing just that and so I waited, and waited, and waited, and waited. Then I started to get nervous and decided to ask around. Roxxane didn’t know, Chica didn’t know, Monty didn’t know. The technicians, they didn’t really care about where Bonnie was, just telling me to check his room. And I did..” Freddy finished his sentence with an understandable moment of hesitation. “He wasn’t there, he wasn’t anywhere..I probably searched every nook and cranny of the pizzaplex that night. Just hoping to find my friend. I didn’t..”

Gregory’s eyes widened as Freddy’s tale reached its somber conclusion, he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of guilt probing bad memories out of his friend. “Freddy, I didn’t know it was..that bad. I’m sorry..” Gregory said as he rubbed his arm nervously. “Don’t worry Gregory, I’m sure he’s somewhere safer then here.” Freddy couldn’t help but admit to himself, finally being able to talk about the loss of his best friend did help ease the pain. “I may have lost one friend, but I promise I won’t lose another.” Freddy said before allowing himself to charge for the next hour. Gregory smiled as he rested inside Freddy’s chest cavity, he knew Freddy would try his hardest to keep him safe. He wasn’t like the other animatronics out there. He was different, just like Bonnie was long ago..

Glamstar Family AU: Chapter 1

the first few chapters are coming together nicely! To those of you who dont like waiting for chapters, good news! You won't have to wait!

I wanted each chapter to be a decent tumblr size, but I may end up making them longer depending on what's being covered. The first few chapters should be short though!

Anyways, here's chapter 1!

Chapter 1: Bridging Gaps

“This totally sucks!” Gregory whined, dropping a cardboard box not-so-gently onto the counter in front of him, which earned a light scolding from the rabbit standing behind it.

“Watch it, kid. That box has glass mugs in it.”

“Ugh, whatever. That doesn’t change the fact that this is majorly lame!” the boy sat at the counter, leaning against it with a huff. He had been moving boxes back and forth for the past couple of hours, and frankly, he was sick and tired of it.

“That’s part of your duties. You wanna live here, you have to work for your lodging.” Bonnie grinned, opening the box and unpacking its contents. As he predicted, it was a box of glass beer mugs. With the Pizzaplex logo gratuitously plastered on them, of course. Gregory sat up a tad, watching in amazement. He’d always thought it was cool how the bots worked so efficiently, but not too much that they were inhuman. A perfect balance, and he had no clue how it worked.

Bonnie picked up the packing slip from within the box and scanned over it with his eyes, something he did often with new shipments. After all, he could just send the product approval directly to the supplies team without needing to waste time with outside equipment. This was obviously one of those inhuman moments. Though Gregory found this cool as well.

“Hey Bonnie?”

“Yeah?”

“When do you think they’ll stop having me run around as an errand boy?”

“When you stop looking like an errand boy.” He retorted, folding the packing slip and setting aside the now empty box for Staffbots to dispose of. Of course, said response elicited a groan from the boy.

“I’m serious!”

“So am I.” Bonnie turned back to Gregory with a hand on his hip. “You’ve got no sense of responsibility. You act like being here is a right, but it's a privilege. You’re lucky the higher ups even humored Freddy, otherwise you’d be back where you came from.” His words were a bit harsh, but his tone was soft. More matter-of-factly rather than openly trying to be cruel.

“So once I start acting responsible, they’ll stop making me move cargo??” Gregory asked hopefully, his eyes twinkling. To which Bonnie immediately shook his head.

“I didn’t say that, don’t put words in my mouth.” Gregory looked down, deflated. “Sorry kid, but that’s the price you agreed to. The price Freddy negotiated, mind you. He never likes dealing with Fazbear Entertainment. He jumped some hurdles to help you, the least you could do is be grateful.”

Bonnie always had a way of making Gregory reflect on how he was behaving. It was strange, having someone who had a similar temperament telling you your own flaws. It didn’t truly feel like scolding, more like giving unsolicited advice. In a trying-to-be-helpful way.

“Of course I’m grateful. I just wish there was more to life than manual labor.” He ran his finger along the rim of one of the freshly unpacked mugs, looking wistfully at the distortion of the glass. He even threw in a little sigh, just to further his point. Bonnie sighed in return, bringing a hand up to pat the boy on his head.

“Keep your chin up, Superstar. Freddy would hate to see you sulking.”

Gregory snorted, attempting to swat away the offending hand. “You’re starting to sound like him, Bonnie.”

“Hey, just know he got that ‘Superstar’ bit from me. Can you believe it? All these years and Freddy Fazbear is a catchphrase thief.” The jostling of the boy’s already messy hair got more feverish as he tried to pry to synthetic’s arms away, to no avail.

“Cut it out, you’re messing up my hair! It took Chica 2 hours to make it presentable!” Gregory laughed.

“You call that rat’s nest presentable?” Bonnie chuckled, finally sparing Gregory of the bullying. And it was just in time for a call to come in on Gregory’s Faz-watch. He clicked the answer button, leaning forward a bit.

“Hello?”

“Don’t hello me!” Roxanne’s voice boomed from the small speakers, causing Gregory to jump. “You were s’posed to come right back after finishing those damn deliveries! Hurry back here before I go and find you!” And as soon as it started, her verbal barrage was over, leaving Bonnie and Gregory to their stunned silence.

“Well,” Bonnie started, breaking the tense atmosphere, “You’d best get going before she makes good on that threat.” He picked up the new glass mugs, rinsing them with a water nozzle before putting them up to dry.

“Can’t I just pretend I’m sick? Oh, oh, or maybe I sprained my ankle?”

“No can do, kid. Best to grab the bull by the horns. Or in this case, the wolf. Besides, once she figures out you were lying, she’ll hurt you for real.”

Unable to argue with that logic, Gregory hopped off the stool and begrudgingly walked towards the Bonnie Bowl exit, with the attraction’s namesake sympathetically waving to him.

—

One week before the field trip.

Jaime stood in front of her bedroom mirror, aimlessly brushing her blond hair. Her eyes were lidded, glazed over. She was daydreaming, losing track of time. Although she wasn’t due at school for another hour, she liked to be early to avoid her schoolmates.

The sound of a phone ringing ripped her from her reverie, and she reached out to grab it off the vanity counter.

Incoming call: Mother

Jaime bit her lip, mustering her courage. The fact her mother was calling her instead of just coming into her room meant the woman wasn’t even home. Again.

“Hello, Mother.”

“So formal! We’re practically blood-related you know!” A cheerful voice replied, the sound of wind whooshing in the background. Jaime frowned. Driving while on the phone, again? “Did you already eat breakfast? I left your lunch on the counter!”

“No. I wanted to eat breakfast with you.”

“Awh, honey. You know mommy is very busy! Oh, get this! Did I tell you about what happened at work a few weeks ago? It was a riot! You should’ve seen how the CEO turned all red! He looked like a tomato with a tou- Hey! Watch where you’re driving!” Mother swore, the sound of cars honking in the background. Jaime exhaled, knowing full well that the person who should probably be watching where they were going was her.

“Mother, pull over when you want to call. It’s dangerous to do it while driving.”

“Jeez you sound like a parole officer, who’d ya get that seriousness from?”

“Mother–”

“Oh right, work!” Mother laughed, as if forgetting her past road rage. “Well, the big wigs called a meeting. Apparently, Faz wanted to talk about something.”

Jaime sat up straight, the brush falling and clattering to the ground as she focused both hands on holding her phone. Faz, as in Fazbear?? FREDDY Fazbear?? She voiced this, and her Mother agreed.

“Yeah, the synthetic. Turns out he found some adorable stray and decided to employ him at the Pizzaplex! What a riot, huh?! The boy is around your age too, or so they think! There’s no records of him, no family or anything. Seems he was a homeless child who snuck in or something.

“Your class is going to the Pizzaplex for a field trip soon, yeah? You should try to make friends with that boy! Tell him your mommy helped him get a job!” Mother laughed again, finding herself really funny. However, Jaime wasn’t laughing.

“A child, at the Mega Pizzaplex?? But, that’s just asking for a repeat of the disa–”

“Jaime.”

The child froze. Mother’s tone turned deathly serious, and she could only imagine what expression she had on her face. Jaime bit her lip again.

“We talked about this. Enough about those missing kids, yeah? There’s nothing dubious going on at the Pizzaplex. The only thing you can hold against Fazbear Entertainment is questionable business and marketing choices.”

Jaime looked down at her feet, wiggling her toes into the carpet. She’d heard this hundreds of times before, so many times in fact that she could probably recite it verbatim. But she knew better. Something was weird about that place. That’s what was so interesting about it. There had to be more to it, because otherwise, what else was going on?

“You hear me, Jaime? Forget about those boogie man stories and urban legends. That’s in the past. Whatever happened at those old restaurants, it’s got nothing to do with us now. Okay?”

There was silence. Jaime recognized it as her mother expecting a response, so she spoke up.

“Okay.”

“That’s my baby. Go on your field trip, and have fun! Stop worrying about things that happened before you were even born!” And just like that, Mother’s jovial way of speaking returned, as if a switch were flicked. Even if Mother knew the truth, she’d never tell Jaime. She never told Jaime anything. Just like she never had breakfast with her anymore. “I gotta go, Jaime. Looks like a cop is eyeballing me.”

“Please don’t get arrested.”

“Psshaw! C’mon, give mommy a big virtual kiss. Mwah!”

Jaime repeated the action, and after saying her goodbyes, I love yous, and have a nice days, hung up with her mother. The silence returned. Jaime was alone again.

She leant down and picked up her previously dropped brush. Looking back up at her reflection, she grimaced as she tied the bows in her hair that held up her pigtails. Once done, Jaime let her hands fall at her side. The silence was suffocating, it made her head hurt and her vision blurry.

“If I disappeared, how long would it take you to notice?” She said to no one in particular, standing and walking to the kitchen to eat her breakfast alone.

–

Pulling into a diner, Mother parked and stepped out of the car. She adjusted her sunglasses, walking into the eatery and looking around. From across the diner, a hand waved her over. Cheerfully she closed the gap, immediately making conversation before even fully reaching the table.

“Phew! What a drive! The commute here is totally killer. Hey, you think I can borrow a staffbot to chauffeur me around?” Mother hummed with amusement in her voice, sliding into the booth seat and waving a waitress over.

“Coffee please, cream and two sugars.” The waitress nodded, tucking her notepad into her apron pocket. “Oh, and a strawberry danish!” Mother called after her.

“You’re late, Jin.” The person sitting across from Mother said, annoyance in her voice.

“No no, not late! Just fashionably off the mark!”

“That’s called being late.”

“Pah! So what was so important that you had to call me out so early? I could’ve been eating breakfast with my baby right now, you know?” Jin accepted her coffee and pastry, immediately going to town on it while the woman across from her slid forward a thick manila folder.

“Why did you approve of that homeless boy working at the Pizzaplex?”

“Hwah?”

“Don’t ‘hwah’ me. Why did you submit approval?” The woman grew frustrated, her hands balling up into fists against the diner table.

Jin lifted her sunglasses, looking down at the folder while chewing on her danish. After a minute of letting the other fume, she shrugged.

“It’s not often the synthetics show interest in people like that. If the kid could be a helping hand, what’s the issue?”

The woman growled, her frustration hitting its peak. Noticing this and simply smiling, Jin finished her coffee and danish, before setting aside some cash. She leaned over and took the manila envelope, standing.

“Well this has been fuuun~ Same time again next week?”

“You won’t get away with this Jin. I’ll find out what you’re planning, and when I do–”

“You’ll what? I haven’t done anything wrong. Besides, he’s just a kid! What are you so worried about, Vanny?”

Vanny pursed her lips, her bright yellow eyes glaring holes through the other woman. Satisfied with her silence, Jin readjusted her sunglasses and grinned.

“I can’t believe you made me drive out here just for this chubby little envelope! Jaime was really annoyed with me today, ya know?”

“Speaking of, how is your son?”

“Daughter. And she’s great! I think she’ll be a P.I. when she gets older!” Jin corrected, her tone flighty yet stern.

Vanny got the hint, but seemed confused. Refusing to elaborate further, Jin gave a wave and walked to the door.

“Have a good day, Vanny! Next time, just mail me these kinds of things. Ta-ta~!”

The blonde folded her hands together, grimacing even after Jin was long gone.

“Oh Gregory. Whatever will we do with you?”

[Prologue] | [Next]

[lex-n-weegie]

Security Breach Theory: Monty isn't actually super egotistical at all (he may not even care for his role that much)

I've been thinking about this Gator a lot and I came to some neat realizations. You can look at the other Glamrocks and easily figure out their personalities, either from their 2D art around the plex, the findable messages, or what they say and do as they walk around the PizzaPlex.

Roxy's art and behavior points to her having at least a small ego and is competitive. Chica's art and behavior shows her being fun and kind, along with being a foodie. Freddy's art and behavior shows a leader who's naive but will always look for the best in every single person.

Monty however, his are. Different. His art shows a somewhat relaxed yet a little energetic gator, he's smiling in all his artwork. But in game, he's destructive and seems to be full of anger. Why is that?

I actually want to talk more about the differences, they're super interesting to me. This one actually can show what I'm taking about

Look at everyone. You can see they're all smiles, the exception being Roxanne because of the coal. She's the only one to have shown different emotions in her artwork, like this one here

Heck let's look at more Monty art to drive the point home (not just because I love his 2D art)

Look at these! 1st and 3rd show a relaxed Gator, not too caring about much and is just super happy to be there. 2nd shows him less relaxed, but instead somewhat hyped. He's excited for golf man!! Gonna get a hole in one!! (There's another image that looks like him jumping in the air while playing, another thing of him being excited)

But then you have his in game self, the Month we encounter.

He's destroying things, his *own* things mostly actually. His room is trashed beyond belief, and in his boss fight he's destroying his own game. He's destroying staff bots, gates, anything, along with roaring whenever he's destroying anything.

But with Gregory he's kind of...not mean? Most mean things he says are things like game over, we will find you/you can't hide, and "You're in trouble now!" Doesn't even insult Gregory like Roxanne will do sometimes, just calling him "Little guy."

He also doesn't seem to care much for his role as the bassist. There's a message that says that he missed a main stage performance again and that they found him in the place they always find him. He's been missing shows a lot it seems, but no one seems upset? They all seem like they want him to succeed, a management report that talks about Bonnie's decommission says "This could be a good thing. Monty can be even more popular than Bonnie." And when Vanessa is threatening to decommission Freddy? Monty would take his place.

Everyone wants Monty to be a star, the big guy up top, but does he even want that?

You might bring up Bonnie and Monty's golf game in this case, but I can debate these points.

Bonnie's "death" is left vauge. He was last seen in Monty Golf it seems, and then he was suddenly decommissioned. How do we know it just wasn't that hole in one Bucket that got Monty later on? Who's to say Monty did it with malicious intent, and it wasn't a result of Vanny's influence? It's all very vauge, anything could be cannon

And the golf game. Who's to say it's Monty's actual wants? What if it represents something with the three other Glamrocks, not including Freddy? Monty's only up front because he's the first in line to replace Freddy. If Monty was gone, it could have been Chica or Roxy up front there. Maybe it's not that they want something bad to happen to Freddy, it means that if things continued to go the way they were going, Freddy is at risk of being decommissioned, thrown out of the band. They'd be forced to go on without him, putting on happy smiles and faces for the kids. Vanessa does threaten Freddy with that after all, it seems like he's on the edge of being "old news."

Perhaps Montgomery's anger comes from the pressure he's under to climb the ranks, to be number 1 and to be a leader. He likes to relax, be chill, not make sure everyone's in line. He doesn't care for his role, it's not exactly what he wants.

(Also, I don't think Fury's Rage counts as anything. They make Freddy more mean when I'm reality he's a sweet, naive bear. Even if it did, you'd have to take away all the fighting stuff for everyone, and all that'd leave is Monty's love for his looks and him being flirty. That's it.)

[spider-sprigg]

i think, if Vanessa is Vanny, the concept of Vanessa being completely unaware of Vanny/her acts as Vanny is super intriguing, especially for SB’s Princess Quest ending.

Just imagine how confused and horrified Vanessa would be, suddenly waking up in a bunny costume with a knife around nearby, not remembering how she got here, last she remembers is chasing Gregory to try and get him home but now she’s far away from where she last was, missing several hours that she can’t remember, in a bunny suit, and Gregory is telling her they need to escape meanwhile a very scuffed up Freddy (omg they’re gonna dock her pay so much for that) is watching her a bit suspiciously, which is super weird and odd because Freddy’s the last person to jump to treat anyone with suspicion

The absolute mindfuck it would be to realize that not only is Vanessa responsible for her therapists disappearances and the missing kids’ disappearances, but that she killed them. She was responsible for getting Bonnie damaged and decommissioned, because she infected him, she was responsible for Moon getting infected as well and becoming a threat to kids, she was responsible for the rest of the Glamrocks save for Freddy getting infected and badly damaged, and the only reason that didn’t happen to her was because of some random kid intervening. That’s not to mention that the same random kid, was the same child she chased around all night and tried to kill as Vanny, and she might also be responsible for bringing a formerly deceased child murderer back to life.

Gregory and Freddy treating Vanessa with suspicion (because while Freddy knows that Vanessa was under Glitchtrap’s mind control from what Gregory told him, and he trusts that Vanessa would never do such a thing of her own volition, they don’t know how the mind control works, if it could reactivate at any time and Vanessa will go back to being Vanny again) especially Gregory, but it doesn’t compare to the amount of suspicion and scrutiny Vanessa’s treating herself with. Over analyzing and checking her actions constantly to find even the slightest possibility of ill intent towards anyone

[sapphirecrook]

Replaceable

During the game, Vanessa threatens to scoop and replace Glamrock Freddy. Her words strongly hint that he is replaceable enough that they'd think little of scrapping the entire Endo and putting his casing on some other one.

In a secret area, Freddy experiences some delightful existential horror as he ponders the nature of being a manufactured (and potentially mass manufactured) entity with the ability to acknowledge its existence. And acknowledges trans rights.

Man's a war hero.

Too bad Gregory is just some kid.

However, this raises a very, very interesting question, given it says a lot about how replicable the dressed up Endos are or are at least implied to be.

Why WAS Monty promoted to a band member AT ALL?

There are some clues. Such as Bonnie being very un-Glamrock in his artwork. But there's more...

If the animatronics are so easily replaced or swapped around, surely making and launching a new Bonnie and fixing Monty is the smarter, faster option?

Now, you might be Very Intelligent and point out Fazbear Entertainment is lazy as hell and all, but I doubt refitting Monty was all that cheap.

It might be. How else did Bonnie play? Monty's pre-band lore implies that base Endos cannot play strings, so the refit must be easy enough given Chica, Bonnie and Monty all had it done. It's weird he's the only one who got murder hands from it.

They have like, a bazillion Endos. Why have those if they have no intention to replace broken ones?

Bonnie looked bad. Look at his posters and designs on Bonnie Bowl, he barely matches the theme. This implies he was due a rework and this was a good reason not to bother, or he was destroyed before then.

They were glad this gave them an excuse to end the fighting between him and Monty, and fixing him would just bring it back

They're just that lazy

They reuse casings a lot and Monty messed him up BAD.

Monty hit off too well with the customers during the repair period

The endos aren't meant to replace broken ones.

Security Breach happened too close to the incident and no action could have been taken yet

The later has circumstantial evidence in the form of the escaped Endo in Parts and Service. As in, that busted open cell. Might've been a prepped Bonnie in the making. Highly speculative.

I miss him.

There's a problem. Freddy... misses Bonnie. People forget that this, combined with his freakout over the Endos, implies Freddy is either sapient, or able to fake sapience enough for the distinction to be irrelevant. Why else would be miss Bonnie? He might not pass a Turing test (his inability to use contractions and rather purplish way of speaking and all), but he understands and regrets loss, meaning he can probably fear for his survival, omitting other circumstances (e.g. Gregory)

Surely they can just remove those memories, or that desire?

A brief aside about the future of AI.

Assuming current software progression, I can totally imagine modern animatronics, AKA Fredbear, are basically trained neural nets that no human can hope to decipher. And thus changes are impossible.

They could just retrain to get a non-tainted version, assuming they back up operational AIs periodically, but I am unsure how long that would take, and how much it would cost.

In addition, it's possible they know they made sapient life on accident but just don't care. Or the hauntings became that mundane. Which might be why Vanessa does. There's no law for robot rights, and AI just went there without anyone noticing. Fits the depressing corporate future FNAF has.

Aside over.

Point is, if he misses Bonnie, surely they had to consider the response of other animatronics. If they have this sense of morale to them, upsetting them seems like something to avoid.

Sure, Freddy and the rest seem obedient to a fault, but that's what you should expect of a machine that doesn't understand if it's alive or not, despite exhibiting progress towards it. Like a bull on a flimsy rope; it restrained him when he was a little baby, and he never learned otherwise, so it restrains even into adulthood.

I can imagine that Freddy might experience a proper meltdown or otherwise refuse service. Or not. The guy's a sap and would definitely do it for the kids. So his disobedience would be something minor and petty he feels he can get away with. After all, they never bothered to replace Bonnie, and Vanessa only threatened to scrap when she thought he committed what is effectively treason.

What I am trying to say is that Freddy must've asked about Bonnie immediately after the incident. Since Freddy barely knows where other animatronics are, we can assume they don't interconnect outside of a central database.

So ye.

He would've been upset and asking where his big cuddly Bonnie bun was at. Odds are, some people would be worried, or unnerved, about this giant machine stomping around, upsetting children by asking questions like that.

But that's me rambling.

It's fun to ramble. To explore the mind.

To see where such voyages take you.

It's best to think as you please, and let it inspire you to do anything more than nothing.

My thoughts on the fnaf sb characters we have so far

Roxanne

Car person and can and will talk about cars for hours

Shes 100% a riot grrl

Very friendly but she still has to pull a mean joke or two but she doesn't really mean it

*cough cough* lesbian *cough*

Chica

a total mother figure

She loves it went people point out her cupcake or the stickers on her guitar

Health nerd but doesnt push it much

I feel like she was on freddys side at one point then she was taken over by vanny and totally fucked over by her,william or another animatronic (this is based on that one teaser)

Monty

Has a hella temper but he doesnt let it show when hes around kids (not Gregory tho lmao)

He plays golf no wonder hes a shit head 😬

Big boy hes like 6'4

Likes dark areas since he can see good in them

He smells like pool chlorine lmaooo

Freddy

Himbo father figure

Hes like "die irl" to monty

Caring he doesnt want to see others get hurt

I WANNA SEE HIM BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF AMALGAMATION AFTON RN THAT WOULD BE SO EPIC

Moondrop

He was super tame and had a sleepy laid back personality before he was taken over by vanny

Now he is like KILL

Still has that "im a funny lil man weee" personality

Totally thinks "today i will decide to cause mass chaos"

Sunrise (??)

I will protect this small child

Really good at hidding since they can cram their limbs in weird positions

Like moondrop they are jester/clowny but sunrise isnt fucking rude

Will give you spine crushing hugs

Vanessa/vanny

Is mentally ill and easily manipulated

You know the weird true crime community on tumblr? Yeah shes 100% apart of that and think aftons actions are justified

She might have a weird two face thing going on where she keeps getting possessed by afton but by the emails from the ar game i just think shes all bad

Shes probably gonna die at the end of the game tho :////

Gregory

Thinks about others more than he thinks about himself

Very smart and tech-y

Knows something is going on and wants to know

Maybe a friend disappeared there and hes looking for them and finds out about all this vanny shit

Existing animatronics that are from old games and at the pizzaplex

If bonnie bowl exists then the rest of the main cast exists too (we have already kinda seen foxys)

So mad this could have been an opportunity to put the hide and seek bonnie game from black bird in the game 🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡

El chip is there and he sings lil songs while u eat

If el chip is back they better bring back the fucking mediocre melodies if they dont i swear to god

The museum is pretty much why afton wants in on the pizzaplex

After getting basically dismantled by the detective he crawls out of the pond and wants to build himself up again and knows where to go

We might see the funtimes again but they might just be gross and melty and form another ennard to stay together

Another baby hate club is formed

We better see the puppet again i wanna know how shes doing 🥺🥺🥺

There is probably so much remnant in that museum damn

We Found Him, Superstar: Ch. 13

Fandom: Five Nights At Freddy’s: Security Breach

Description: Since starting his new afterlife at the Pizzaplex, Gregory has managed to befriend the Glamrock animatronics and made a surprising discovery—Bonnie’s been hidden in the basement warehouse this entire time, badly decommissioned but still powered on. Along with Bonnie are the endoskeletons that, no longer under the virus’s control, seem much more sentient than normal animatronics… Gregory and his friends are determined to get Bonnie back into commission and figure out the mysteries of what exactly these endoskeletons are—and how to help them, too.

Chapter Summary: Bonnie’s tour of the Pizzaplex continues, although a stop at Gator Golf brings back memories that the recently-decommissioned rabbit would rather forget…

“That is what you are hearing?!” Freddy exclaimed, his ice blue eyes wide.

This wasn’t good—they voiced said never to go to the basement again, so why were they reaching out? Did William somehow get free?!

But… no, Gregory told him they’d specifically stated “she is still here.” That could only be referring to one person, then… Freddy shook his head, filing this thought away for now. They could talk about this later, when there was time to think—maybe Gregory would have another dream that could provide more context.

“Wow, that sounds… horrifying,” Bonnie eventually spoke up, shaking his head lightly. “I’m sorry you guys had to go through that…”

“Mhm!” Gregory hummed in agreement with Freddy’s earlier question, resting his hands on the rabbit’s head once again. “Oh, it's okay Bonnie... As long as everyone’s safe now, that's all that matters! Besides, that guy’s gonna stay down there for good this time!”

“Yeah.” Bonnie smiled half-heartedly. Why did this creature had to be a rabbit, of all things? Although, he supposed if it was another animal then it would’ve just gone after a different animatronic… At least in a roundabout way, he saved one of his friends from getting decommissioned for spare parts instead.

“Everything is fine,” Freddy said, reassuring himself as well as the others. He reached up, standing on tiptoe to ruffle Gregory’s hair and giving the boy a smile. “Now, let us not dwell on the past; we should prepare ourselves for the fright we might receive when we enter Monty’s domain…”

“You're right! He always scares me when he jumps out!” Gregory said with a giggle, gently gripping Bonnie’s ears to prepare for anything that might come their way.

The group wasn’t far from the golf course, so it only took them a few minutes to ride the elevator down and step out into the faux-swamp atmosphere.

“Monty?” Freddy called. “We are here to show Bonnie the golf course!”

“Hey! I didn't know ya’ll were comin’… if I did, I would've gotten into position!” the gator exclaimed, running over to the trio with a golf club in his right claw. “Well, that's okay—feel free to look around. I was just workin’ on my shots.”

Bonnie was uncharacteristically silent, his eyes wide as he slowly looked around the attraction. Not much had changed from the last time he’d been here. The ball pit was the same, as was the little stage, and over there was where Monty had—

—the low, demented laugh of someone who he’d thought was his friend, sharp claws and gnashing teeth coming right for his face—

—ripping, tearing, BREAKING—

—his connection to the others severed completely, unable to call for help—

—dazed, confused, carried down below—

—he’d never be whole again—

“Oh…,” Bonnie breathed out heavily, his entire body starting to tremble. He reached up and grabbed Gregory under the shoulders, holding him out to Freddy with shaking hands as he simultaneously started backing away from Monty, eyes darting between the animatronics.

“T-Take him, take him!” Bonnie exclaimed, shoving Gregory into Freddy’s outstretched hands as he moved towards the elevator, trying to get away—

Monty was bad. Bonnie had been hurt here before and Monty was going to do it again if he didn’t leave right now, he had to GO—

Gregory didn't seem to notice Bonnie's nervousness until the rabbit began trembling, which caused the boy to shake along with him. He remained still as he was held out to Freddy and set in the bear’s arms. Gregory was confused, wondering if he’d done something wrong… until he noticed the way Bonnie looked at Monty.

He wasn’t just scared of him—he was absolutely terrified.

Unfortunately, the gator didn't understand what was going on, simply holding his golf club over his shoulder in a lax grip.

“Bon, what's wrong?” Monty asked as he stepped forward, giving the rabbit a confused grin. “It's like you've seen a ghost, or somethin’... Heh heh!” Letting out a nervous laugh, he tried to make the situation lighthearted.

“DON’T!” Bonnie yelled, holding up his arms defensively as the club glinted in the dim light. He backed up a few more inches until he hit a wall, then simply rested against it and continued to shake, keeping his face hidden.

“Oh no, Bonnie… I am so sorry, I did not think—Monty, I never got the chance to tell you—I am sorry—” Freddy mentally kicked himself; this was the worst place to take Bonnie, and Monty had no idea why. Freddy looked between the animatronics then down at Gregory, unsure what to do. It only took a few seconds more to make a decision however, setting Gregory down to rush over to Bonnie—the rabbit needed his comfort more right now.

“It is alright; you are safe—Monty will not hurt you,” Freddy soothed, gently reaching out. Bonnie actually took an instinctive swipe at him but Freddy leaned back to avoid the impact. Once he realized who was in front of him the bunny immediately pulled Freddy into a hug, gripping the bear so tightly his fingers left dents in his shoulders.

Monty immediately stepped back, watching the pair with wide eyes behind his dark glasses. He wasn't sure what to do at the moment, but he figured giving Bonnie some space would be the best thing—clearly whatever he was going through directly related to what happened while he was still infected. The gator couldn't even remember the attack, but... maybe it happened here?

“…Is Bonnie okay?” Gregory asked quietly, to which Monty simply nodded and led the boy further into the golf course.

“Uh, yeah he is! He just needs some time,” Monty replied, lightly patting the top of Gregory’s head. “C’mon, lets you and me get some practice in while ol’ Fredbear’s distracted!”

“Okay…” The boy spared a final worried glance over his shoulder before he rounded a corner, cutting off the other animatronics from view.

***

After a few minutes Bonnie stopped trembling and released Freddy, letting out a huge sigh as he regained his composure.

“I’m okay, I’m okay,” he said quietly, closing his eyes briefly before meeting Freddy’s gaze with a shaky smile. “Sorry about that—I… didn’t expect the memory to hit me that badly. Also, sorry about your back…”

“There is no need to apologize,” Freddy replied with a shake of his head. He smiled in return, patting Bonnie on the arm. “I was not considering the ramifications of taking you here so soon.”

“I’m fine, Fredbear.” Despite the words, the rabbit couldn’t help but grimace. “I probably freaked them both out, huh? We can catch up to them, just…” He closed his eyes again with a small shiver. “Can you ask Monty to put the golf club down? I’m definitely gonna need some more time before we try that activity.”

Freddy nodded, giving Bonnie’s shoulder a squeeze before leading him to where Monty and Gregory were standing. By the time they reconvened, Monty had Gregory under one arm while he held the club in the other. As they approached, Freddy said softly, “Everything is alright. Monty, could you please put the golf club away for a moment?”

“Sure thing!” Monty replied with a grin, simply tossing the metallic stick off to the side. “If you want, you guys can come back another time. Gator Golf is always open for visitors!” Unprompted, he lifted Gregory up and began using his body like a toy gun, making “pew pew” noises. The kid didn't seem to mind, simply laughing as he was jerked around.

“Oh my goodness Monty, do not use my son as a Fazerblaster!” Freddy exclaimed, his true nature as an exasperated parent instantly re-emerging. He reached out for Gregory, but stopped mid-action and turned as Bonnie burst out laughing, doubling over and holding his sides. It wasn’t that funny, but it seemed like Bonnie’s mind was trying to overcompensate from the traumatic flashback he’d just experienced.

“Sorry, sorry!” Bonnie choked out eventually, calming down. “I’ve just never seen Freddy so annoyed… I’m good, though.” He straightened, giving Monty an easy smile. “We can stay a little longer; just no golf tonight, okay?” His gaze shifted to Gregory. “You’ve still gotta point out all the coolest places around here!”

Monty offered the old rabbit a bright smile before handing Gregory back over to Freddy with a laugh of his own. “Fine, Mr. Grumpypants! I'll let the lil’ squirt lead the tour!”

Gregory immediately latched onto the bear, resting his head on his shoulder to keep himself from becoming too dizzy. He shut his eyes, giggling quietly. “Oh, yeah! This place is a lot of fun!”

“I can see that,” Bonnie agreed with a snicker, then looked around the room. “I’ve gotta say, it is really awesome in here with all the lights…”

Gregory nodded his head, soon pointing towards one of the fake “rivers” set up around the attraction. “I love those ball pits!”

“Looks like a perfect place to completely lose your golf ball,” Bonnie commented, gently nudging Monty in the side. “How many have you found in there after hours by now—hundreds?”

“Thousands!” Monty replied. “Oh man, I’ve picked up so many things you wouldn’t believe—it's why we have a lost and found here!”

“Oh, and the coolest part is the catwalk!” Gregory chimed in, pointing up towards the ceiling. Now that he knew Monty wasn’t going to chase him around in a crazed state, he really wanted to check them out again sometime. “You can see everything from up there!”

“…We will not be going today,” Freddy commented, gazing upwards. Gregory let out a small “aww” at the news, but relaxed as Monty patted the top of his head.

“Do you still have those Fazcams as prizes?” Bonnie asked, looking towards the prize counter. “I always thought those were cool, even though they kinda hurt our eyes…”

“Yeah we do!” Monty nodded, then tapped the side of his star-shaped frames. “We’ve also got the coolest shades in the universe!”

“Oh, I have a feeling that someone will want a pair of those…,” Freddy said, looking down at Gregory with a knowing smile.

“Heck yeah I can get you a pair, squirt—no problem!” Monty said, placing his hands on his hips, to which Gregory pumped his fists in the air excitedly.

“Anything else you wanna show me while we’re here, bud?” Bonnie asked, tilting his head.

Gregory looked around momentarily before lightly shaking his head. “I don't think so!” He hummed, thinking of where they could go next. “Maybe now we can see Chica?”

“Ooh, have you actually tried Mazercise yet?” Bonnie asked, hopping excitedly. “I think its fun, but I can never seem to get the moves quite right…”

“We have stopped by once before,” Freddy replied, then smiled at the gator. “We will leave you to practice your golfing skills, Monty.” He held out a hand for a fist-bump. “See you in the morning for our first performance!”

Monty grinned before bumping fists with Freddy. “Of course! Catch you guys later!”

Gregory waved goodbye with a bright smile as they headed for the elevator. While they listened to the catchy music play on the way up to the main atrium, Bonnie reached over to ruffle his hair. “You’ve been back to the daycare too, right? I mean, I guess so since you’re no longer banned…”

“We have visited quite a few times, in fact,” Freddy replied. “It was only recently that we saw Moon, however; usually we only speak with Sun.”

Gregory nodded, shutting his eyes as he leaned against Freddy comfortably. “Mhm! Sun’s super nice, he's just... kinda scary sometimes, like if you make a mess. But Moon is even scarier!”

“I never talked to Moon that much, but he didn’t seem too bad…,” Bonnie commented. “Besides, he’s still just Sun deep down, right?”

Freddy nodded, glancing down at Gregory briefly. “Gregory is convinced that they are two separate entities, though I have tried to tell him otherwise many times.”

“That's because they ARE!” Gregory insisted, pouting a bit. “I saw it with my own two eyeballs!” He folded his arms over his chest. “That's the freakiest part about them, you know—that there’s two!”

“I will believe it when I see it,” Freddy said with a laugh. They walked up a few flights of escalators before coming to Mazercise, where they heard upbeat dance music playing from inside.

“Hey, Chica!” Bonnie exclaimed, throwing open the door with a big grin. Chica was there, but not on stage, as expected. She was standing by the food counter, a piece of real pizza clutched in her hand and a surprised, slightly guilty expression on her face.

“Hey! I thought you said you guys aren't allowed to eat real food!” Gregory exclaimed, folding his arms over his chest. Chica stood frozen, looking from side to side before giving a nervous laugh.

“Ahaha, o-oh! I didn't expect you guys to show up,” she mentioned, slowly setting the pizza slice aside and pulling the box behind herself.

“You’re still doing that?!” Bonnie exclaimed, although he sounded more amused than judgmental.

“Chica, you know that does horrible things to your mechanical systems; the techs will not be pleased tomorrow morning…,” Freddy lectured with a sigh. “How many pieces have you had?”

“But it's so yummy!” Chica exclaimed, giving up her attempt to hide the evidence and revealing that the box contained a still-hot pizza missing three slices. She couldn’t really taste it, per se, but it was the concept of eating that she couldn’t resist. “I didn’t take a lot…”

“I want one!” Gregory insisted, holding his hand up and waving it around. Freddy sighed again even more heavily, then set Gregory down before the boy wiggled out of his arms.

“You’d better eat the rest before Chica does!” Bonnie laughed, walking over to pat Chica on the back. “It’s ok, we’ve all got our weird habits; yours is just… kinda detrimental to your systems, unfortunately.”

As Gregory dug into his unexpected snack, the rabbit took stock of the room. Thankfully, not much had changed since he’d last visited.

“So were you practicing your dance moves?” Bonnie asked, playfully nudging Chica’s side. “Unless you came all the way up here just to sneak some pizza…”

The bird nudged him back, then crossed her arms over her chest. “Oh, be quiet! I was just dancing, then I needed a quick break!”

“Were you trying a new routine?” Freddy asked, handing Gregory a napkin as he noticed grease all over the boy’s face.

“Yeah! Earlier today they installed a few new dances, so I’m learning them before the Pizzaplex opens tomorrow!” Chica explained, watching Gregory wipe his face and hands.

“I’m sure the kids will love that!” Bonnie said with a grin. “It’s always good to change it up once in a while.”

“Speaking of ‘changing things up,��” Freddy began, glancing down at Gregory. “You should tell Bonnie about when we tried out the maze!”

Gregory looked over at Bonnie and giggled. “Oh yeah! The maze was so fun! Freddy and I did a race to the end and I actually won! Freddy's good at everything so I didn't think I would, but… I did!”

“What?! That’s awesome!” Bonnie congratulated, giving him a little round of applause. “See, Fredbear’s not good at everything… just most things.”

“We are all good at most things,” Freddy chuckled. “It is in our programming.”

Gregory hummed, shrugging his shoulders. “I dunno... I still think Freddy’s good at everything!”

Chica smiled, nodding her head with a small giggle. “He's quite the bear, isn't he?”

“You sure found a nice one, Freddy,” Bonnie added with a chuckle, watching as the bear scooped Gregory into his arms and gave him a tight hug.

“Gregory is my superstar,” Freddy replied, gently pressing his forehead against his son’s. That simple phrase said it all.

“Look at that sweet little smile!” Chica commented, clasping her hands together as she saw Gregory’s expression. “You really are the best dad—Gregory loves you so much!”

“Thank you, everyone,” Freddy replied with a laugh. “It is obviously not something I thought I would experience, but I would not have it any other way.” He smiled at the boy, then gestured with one arm to the animatronics. “But Gregory is well-loved by everyone, not just myself!”

“Heck yeah he is!” Bonnie exclaimed, hopping closer and pretty much falling onto Freddy and Gregory in a big group hug. He grabbed Chica’s hand and pulled her over to the pile as well.

“Aww, you guys rock!” the bird chirped as she held onto the group. Gregory smiled as he snuggled close to everyone, simply taking in the warm embrace. He was thankful to have others to look out for him.

“Okay, what’s next, bud?” Bonnie asked once everyone separated.

“Is there anywhere else you would like to show Bonnie?” Freddy added, tilting his head questioningly. “They daycare, perhaps? Or one of the arcades?” He paused, humming softly. “Now that I think about it, we have not visited the West Arcade together after the incident…”

“Hmm…,” Gregory thought to himself, playing with the strap of his backpack. “Let's go to the arcade! Then the daycare.”

“Alright,” Freddy agreed, tilting his head so Gregory could reach better. His gaze shifted to Chica’s and he smiled warmly. “We will leave you to your exercises, Chica.”

“Try not to eat anymore pizza!” Bonnie said with a laugh, already walking towards the exit. He was excited to explore more before the dayshift, and was going to take full advantage of this opportunity.

Chica sighed, looking over towards the box of pizza. “No promises... But I'll see you guys later!”

“I like the arcade games but I haven't actually played any! Maybe we can try some out?” Gregory mentioned as he kicked his legs back and forth.

“Yes, we can definitely do that; there are a lot of games to explore!” Freddy replied with a laugh as they exited Mazercise. It was a short walk to the West Arcade, and they paused outside the elevator door as Bonnie pushed the button.

“I haven’t seen Music Man in forever,” Bonnie commented as they waited for the elevator. Freddy glanced down at Gregory, slightly concerned.

“He is in sleep mode during the night since he requires so much power,” Freddy said, meeting the boy’s wide-eyed gaze. He knew that Music Man had chased Gregory at some point, but wasn’t aware of all the details—including the fact that the huge animatronic had a “bouncer mode” in the first place. “We do not have to wake him up if you do not want to.”

Gregory lifted his head to look up at Freddy, smiling nervously. Music Man was such a giant animatronic, even though he was supposedly docile Gregory was still afraid of accidentally getting crushed…

“Mmm… no, we can! I'm a brave boy,” Gregory stated, folding his arms over his chest. He just hoped his bravery wouldn’t dwindle upon the actual sight of Music Man rising to his full height.

“Alright; I promise you that he really is a nice fellow,” Freddy reassured as they stepped into the elevator.

“Yeah, and I’m right here with ya!” Bonnie added, copying Gregory’s motion of crossing his arms over his chest. “Between Freddy and I, you’re totally safe!”

Gregory nodded slowly, wrapping his arms around Freddy's neck once again with a shudder. “I just hope he won't squash any of us...”

“He would never do such a thing!” Freddy replied, surprised that Gregory would think that. Then again, based on what the boy had described… it was probably a valid concern the last time they’d met. “I did not even think he could leave his stage; I have never seen him do so, at least…”

“Oh trust me—he can,” Gregory insisted, looking away. There was a lot they hadn't seen, and a lot Gregory wished he hadn't either. “He chased me in the bathroom! I thought I was safe there but he put his arm in through the doors. He was trying to squash me with his hand! And... And he chased me through the back hallway of the arcade! I didn't even think he'd fit back there, but he sure did!”

Freddy and Bonnie shared a grimace. Obviously, Music Man had been a lot more aggressive than either of them thought possible. Just then the elevator opened, Freddy holding Gregory tighter as they entered the arcade and rounded the corner to see the large animatronic sleeping peacefully on his stage. Freddy and Gregory hung back before actually stepping onto the foggy dance floor, their eyes trained on Music Man's sleeping form as Bonnie cautiously approached him.

Bonnie soon reached the giant hand hanging over the edge of the stage. He gave it a few light taps and quickly backed up, asking quietly: “Hey, Music Man? There's a surprise for you if you open your eyes!”

“Huh...?” Music Man said, his booming voice echoing through the room. It was clear that he wasn't upset, though—his voice was loud simply due to his size. “Who's... uh... Bonnie?” Slowly, he roused himself up onto his front legs, peering down at the comparatively small rabbit. “That really you?!”

“Yup!” Bonnie announced, waving cheerfully. He'd gotten along well with the DJ in the past, and despite what happened with Gregory, Bonnie was glad to see him again. “Sorry I haven't visited in a while; I was... kinda stuck somewhere, but Freddy and Gregory found me! They're over there, too

“Hello!” Freddy called, smiling. He'd stopped by the arcade once after the incident to check in on the DJ, but hadn't really gotten a chance to talk to him about anything since it’d been during the day. However, he figured that like the others Music Man wouldn't remember anything about the other night, so he felt no need to bring it up. “We have a new friend for you to meet—this is Gregory.” He shifted the boy a bit higher, still keeping a firm grip on him. “He is a bit shy, so please forgive us for staying over here.”

The sound of Music Man’s voice filling the entire room caught Gregory off guard, only making him clutch onto Freddy closer. When he was shifted up higher, the boy hesitantly lifted his head up to look at the giant animatronic. After getting a good, long look, Gregory was quick to latch back onto Freddy with a quick shake of the head, fear making his voice freeze up.

“Oh... Heeeey, little man!” the DJ said, his grin ever-permanent as he waved one of his front hands. His voice was deep and slow, his chill personality evident in the way he spoke—the complete opposite from the last time Gregory had seen him. “You don't have to be shy; I'm just here to play music and have fun!” He paused, then nodded in understanding. “Buuut I get it—I'm pretty big for such a tiny one like you.”

“He will warm up in time,” Freddy said, hoping this to be the case. He figured it would take a bit longer than everyone else, but hopefully someday Gregory would be able to come in here without being frightened.

“No rush!” Music Man laughed. “No rush at allll, little man—would you feel any better if I played you some tunes?” Three hands moved simultaneously: one held onto his headphones while the other two moved to some of the sound mixers on either side of the animatronic. “I've got a huuuuuge library of songs—what's your favorite?”

Gregory couldn't even recall the animatronic talking once, so it was fascinating hearing his tone and the way he spoke. Nonetheless the boy remained quiet, keeping close to Freddy. As Music Man offered a song, Gregory finally seemed to perk up a bit.

“Um... I don't have one,” the boy mumbled quietly, trying to think back to any songs he heard. “The ones Chica has are pretty good, I guess…”

“Ohhh, the Mazercize soundtrack?” Music Man asked, nodding his head. “Yeah, I've got allll those! I think they just added more today, too... Which playlist did you want?”

“The one that was used just prior to today's update should be good,” Freddy replied, smiling as Bonnie came over to his side and patted Gregory's head reassuringly.

“Okay, let me seeeee...” The DJ searched around for a bit, limbs moving every which way before pressing a button that immediately sent music blaring through the arcade. “Aha! Got it! Is this what you wanted?” He was now bobbing his head and a few arms to the beat, looking exactly as he did once Gregory deactivated his Bouncer Mode. The boy nodded in response, offering the DJ weak smile before lowering his head against Freddy's shoulder.

“He seems nice, I guess...,” Gregory murmured, swinging his legs to match the rhythm.

“See, it is as I told you—nothing more to worry about,” Freddy reassured, nuzzling Gregory's nose with his own until the boy giggled. He then looked back at the DJ, giving him another wave. “Thank you for the music! We are going to explore the rest of the arcade, but we will stop by again before we leave!”

“Alriiiight!” Music Man cheered, pumping a fist in the air. He was in his element now, happy to entertain even though it was the middle of the night.

“Bye!” Bonnie called with a wave, following Freddy and Gregory to the other side of the arcade. The music was playing through the speakers throughout the attraction, but the volume was more reasonable as they moved away from the dance floor.

Gregory felt a bit better after a good laugh with Freddy, looking around as they made their way through the arcade. He’d given the games a brief glance when running by, but he hadn’t had time to actually check any of them out with Monty and Chica on his tail. “Whoa… there’s so many games!”

“Most of them are consoles, but there are some other types as well—like air hockey, right there,” Freddy said, pointing to a long table in the middle of the room and setting Gregory on the floor so he could explore on his own.

“I was never super good at that...,” Bonnie admitted, scratching the back of his head. “I'm definitely better at the arcade games, especially the old school ones. Here, Gregory—try this one!” The rabbit pointed to an arcade console to the right. It was a pac-man style game, except instead of pac-man versus ghosts, it was Chica going after sentient cupcakes (and vice-versa). “You'll get the hang of it in no time!”

Gregory curiously walked over to the arcade game, standing up on his tip-toes. “Ooh, this looks so pretty!”

He'd never played with a game like this! He'd seen handheld devices of course, but never actually played on one. He stared at the starting screen for a few seconds, before beginning to press every button besides the ‘start' button.

“First of all, you need to be a bit taller,” Freddy said with a chuckle, pulling out a stepstool hidden in a dark corner of the room for this exact situation. He placed it in front of the console and Gregory quickly hopped on. “Now, the goal of this one is to move Chica with this joystick here—” Freddy demonstrated by gently grasping the joystick with the tips of his fingers and wiggling it around. “—and collect the little white dots that appear on screen. However, you need to avoid the cupcakes that will come after you. If you are caught too many times, you lose.”

“BUT if you touch a piece of pizza, it'll make it so you're going after the cupcakes, and you get extra points if you catch them!” Bonnie piped up, hopping excitedly. He might need to find another one of these consoles so he could try it out himself…

“It will make more sense once the game starts,” Freddy reassured Gregory, then pointed to a big red button. “When you are ready, push this button here and it will begin.”

“I'm ready!” Gregory announced as he hit the big red button, watching the screen shift to a maze-like display. He began moving the character, giggling happily as he quickly caught on to the controls as Freddy predicted.

“Wow, you're awesome at this!” Bonnie commented, eyes widening as he watched Gregory play. Freddy nodded in agreement, looking quite proud as Gregory did even better than he expected. Gregory didn't seem to pay the two any mind, already focused on the game and squealing as the cupcakes followed after the character.

Freddy and Bonnie decided to let him be; he was clearly having fun, regardless of whether he was playing “correctly” or not. Bonnie looked around the room before finding a similar arcade cabinet, rushing over to it so he could play his own game.

“I died!” Gregory whined as GAME OVER flashed red across the console a few seconds later.

“You did very well for your first try!” Freddy told him, ruffling his hair. “It takes practice to build up skills for these games; the more you play, the better you will do!”

“Then I'll come and play more often!” Gregory held his arms up for Freddy to lift him. “I wanna play one with you one day, too!”

“That will certainly not be a problem; there are many two-player games,” Freddy replied, lifting Gregory up and taking him over to where Bonnie was wrapped up in his own maze. Bonnie's AI was working hard trying to calculate exactly where to move the character to get the maximum point value based on what was on screen. He played for a few more minutes before misjudging which direction to go and running straight into a cupcake.

“Aww, I was making some progress!” he said, both ears tilting down as the GAME OVER screen flashed brightly. “Oh well… So are we trying more games, or heading to the daycare?” Bonnie asked, perking up at the prospect of their next activity.

“We can go to the daycare!” Gregory suggested, clinging onto Freddy comfortably.

“Let us say goodbye to Music Man on the way out,” Freddy said as he walked them back over to the dance floor. As before he stopped before actually stepping onto the floor, making sure to keep Gregory a comfortable distance away.

“We’re heading out, DJ!” Bonnie called, waving to catch the large animatronic’s attention.

“Aww, so soon?” Music Man asked, waving back when he noticed them. “Alright, stop by aaaaaanytime!”

Gregory kept a tight hold of Freddy, staring up at Music Man. He felt a little more comfortable than when they’d arrived, but he couldn't help but still feel afraid of what the huge animatronic could do. He hesitated before lightly waving his hand to the DJ, then propped his chin on Freddy's shoulder. “I think Sun will be happy to see you again, Bonnie.”

“Yeah?” Bonnie asked as they headed to the elevator, a grin lighting up his face. “I’ll be happy to see him, too; he and I always got along great!” He laughed, pressing the button to take them up. “I bet Sun just looooves you, doesn’t he, bud?”

Gregory hummed, lightly shrugging his shoulders. “I think so! He's very nice to me[Ma1] …”

“He cares for you a great deal, just like the rest of us,” Freddy said as they exited the elevator and began the trek to the daycare. Bonnie held out his hands with a grin, making grabbing motions until Freddy chuckled and handed Gregory over to rest on his shoulders. When they reached the daycare, the group paused just inside the interior door in front of the slide. To their surprise, the lights in the play area were off, making it impossible to see if anyone was wandering around… although the faint sound of jingling bells echoed throughout the cavernous room.

“…I suppose Moon wanted some time in the open,” Freddy mused aloud, glancing over at Gregory to make sure he was okay.

The boy nervously looked to his caretaker, smiling weakly as he gently hugged onto Bonnie’s head. “I-I'm okay… let's go!”

“We’ve got you, bud; don’t worry,” Bonnie reassured, placing his hands over Gregory’s and giving them a squeeze before holding onto his legs securely. The last thing he wanted was for Gregory to get scared and fall off from wriggling too much.

“We will all go through the main entrance this time,” Freddy stated, though he already knew there was no way Gregory was going down that slide alone right now. They walked down the staircase and Freddy knocked on the big wooden door, opening it carefully as he called out: “Hello? Moon, are you here? We have brought someone to see you, as promised!”

As the big door creaked open, the faint jingling suddenly stopped. It took a moment before they suddenly became quicker and closer, to which Gregory immediately tensed as the thought that he might possibly be face to face with Moon since he was on Bonnie's shoulders suddenly hit him.

“Mmph... Hold me!” the boy insisted frantically as he let go of Bonnie's head in an attempt to crawl down his shoulder.

“Okay, okay—hold on!” Bonnie exclaimed, trying to get ahold of him. He managed to grab Gregory under the shoulders and ended up flipping him 360 degrees before settling the boy in his grasp as Freddy usually did, one arm supporting him underneath and the other wrapped securely around his back. Freddy stepped closer to the pair to give Gregory another level of comfort, listening to the jingling rapidly approach.

Gregory was quick to hug onto Bonnie, shutting his eyes tightly. Soon enough, Moon's rapid tiptoeing stopped as his head slowly peered out through the crack of the door to stare at Freddy.

“…Ehehehe, visitors! Oh, is little Gregory hiding away?” Moon asked slowly, carefully stepping out from behind the door with his hands behind his back.

“Forgive him, Moon, Gregory is still a bit shy,” Freddy said apologetically, then gestured to the pair next to him with a smile. “But look who is holding him!”

Bonnie grinned, not intimidated by Moon in the slightest as he tilted his head back to see the tall animatronic properly. He wiggled one of his ears in greeting so he didn’t have to let go of Gregory to wave. “Hi, Moon! Long time no see.”

“Wh-what?!” Moon exclaimed, throwing the doors wide open and gesturing everyone inside. “Where have you been Bonnie? Oh, this is such a great surprise, hehehe!”

He hopped around in excitement, sending another flurry of jingles through the airwaves. Gregory shoved his face into Bonnie's shoulder, getting comfortable in the bunny's arms as he tried his best to calm down.

“I was a little… stuck,” Bonnie said vaguely, rubbing Gregory’s back soothingly. “But Gregory found me and helped me get all fixed up and active again, so… here I am!”

“Oh, Gregory! You're such a smart boy, ehehehe! Thank you for bringing Bonnie back— we missed him so much,” Moon said. “Just wait until Sun hears about this, hehehehe… He still talks about you, Bonnie!” The animatronic spun around to look over at the little room above the ball pit.

“Aww, he does?” Bonnie said, his grin remaining wide. Like everyone else, he was used to Moon and Sun speaking about each other in third person, so he didn’t pay this any mind. “I missed him, too!”

Freddy tilted his head curiously, thinking about Gregory’s insistence that the daycare attendants were separate animatronics. He’d always assumed they were just opposite sides of the same entity, but by the way Moon was speaking he began to wonder if Gregory might be onto something…

“Would you like me to get him? I've been out for some time anyways,” Moon mentioned, then crouched down to get a look at Gregory. The boy turned his head as he heard movement come closer before quickly looking away once again, simply nodding in response.

“That would be wonderful, if you do not mind,” Freddy agreed, moving near the light switch. “Let us know when you are ready and I will hit the lights.”

“It’s good to see you!” Bonnie said with a cheerful laugh. “We’ll definitely hang out more, okay? You’ve gotta tell me all the crazy naptime stories I missed while I was out, anyway!”

“Hehehehe, I have plenty!” Moon confirmed, giving Gregory a pat on the head before waving at Freddy. “I'll see you all soon, ehehehe...” Moon gave his usual cackle and then crawling back to his hideout, which Gregory happened to catch as he finally lifted his head.

“I told you he crawls!” the boy whisper-yelled, wide-eyed as he watched the animatronic literally scale the wall to reach the entrance to the little stage.

Freddy and Bonnie shared a look as they watched Moon scuttle away. They still didn’t understand why he was designed with such a personality, but… it did counteract Suns’s perfectly, which they supposed was the goal. Upon Moon’s call Freddy flipped the switch, instantly flooding the daycare with bright overhead lights. Seconds later Sun ran out of his room and literally launched himself off the stage, quickly scrambling out of the ball pit so he could rush over and fall onto Bonnie in a hug.

“Bonnie! I missed you!” Sun exclaimed, squeezing the rabbit tight, then pulled back as he felt a cool presence in-between them. “OH! Gregory, I didn’t see you down there! Are you okay?!”

Gregory watched Sun practically throw himself over the edge and bound for Bonnie, immediately turning his away before the two made impact. The boy groaned upon being squeezed in-between them, taking a deep breath as Sun pulled back.

“I-I'm okay!” Gregory said as he kept his arms and legs wrapped around Bonnie tightly. If only he knew how to control his teleporting, he would've definitely moved out of the way sooner…

“Oh goodness…,” Freddy muttered, rushing over to make sure Gregory really was alright.

“I’m sorry!” Sun apologized, bowing his head as Freddy looked Gregory over. Once satisfied he was okay, Freddy ruffled the boy’s hair and turned back to the tall animatronic.

“It is alright,” Freddy replied with a small chuckle. “Just… please try and be more aware of your surroundings next time.”

“Yeah, it’s easy to miss my little buddy!” Bonnie added, bouncing Gregory slightly before turning a bright grin on Sun. “Anyway, hi! Nice to see you again!”

Gregory blinked a few times, leaning into Freddy's palm comfortably before resting his head against Bonnie's chest. Luckily for him, even if he were to get hurt it'd immediately fade away as if nothing had happened to him.

“I see you and Bonnie are already fast friends—how sweet!” Sun said, clasping his hands in front of his chest.

“Yup, Gregory and I stick together now,” the rabbit agreed, shooting a wink at Freddy.

“Ooh, Freddy, you’d better watch that little ray of sunshine before Bonnie steals him away!” Sun said with a dramatic gasp.

“I do not think that will happen,” Freddy replied with a playful jab to Bonnie’s arm.

“Mhm! Bonnie is really nice and stuff, but Freddy’s my dad and I'm staying with him forever!” Gregory exclaimed proudly, resting his hands on his hips. He knew they were all joking, but he still wanted to make it very clear that he had no plans on leaving Freddy's side whatsoever.

“Ooh, Sunshine, you’re so cute!” Sun exclaimed, instinctively reaching forward to snatch the boy up and hug him tight. However, he thought better of this based on the warning glare from Freddy and lowered his arms with a small chuckle. “Force of habit, sorry…”

“It’s nice to see you’re as chipper as ever,” Bonnie commented, and he really meant it—Sun’s personality had always meshed with his quite well, and Bonnie used to visit the daycare often to hang out with both him and the kids. Even though he technically wasn’t back on the character roster yet, he was just glad he could still visit everyone when night fell.

“Sun’s very chipper!” Gregory echoed. Although he didn't entirely know what the word meant, he assumed he could agree with Bonnie on most things even if he didn’t fully understand them.

“Thank you!” Sun said, pressing a hand to his chest dramatically. “I always try to be for the little ones!”

“They appreciate the constant affection, I am sure,” Freddy commented as he took Gregory into his arms with a soft smile. He knew Gregory also appreciated constant affection, though usually it was from one specific animatronic.

“Yeah…,” Bonnie trailed off, looking around the daycare with his arms crossed in front of his chest, then gave a nod. “I’m sure this will be a great place for them while we’re sorting out all the details later on…”

Sun tilted his head curiously. “Who’s ‘them?’” He gasped, pressing his hands to his cheeks. “New friends for us to take care of?!”

“Oh yeah, we have a bunch of kids we have to save in the basement!” Gregory said, looking up at Sun with a bright smile. “And they'll be my first kid-friends ever!”

“Kids… in the basement…?” Sun repeated, slowly lowering his hands to his sides. Freddy and Bonnie shared a grimace.

“Oops… probably shouldn’t have shared that yet,” the bunny said with a small sigh.

“It is a long story,” Freddy chimed in, shaking his head. “I will tell you all of the details another time, but the part that pertains to you, Sun, is that there are more children like Gregory within the Pizzaplex. They are currently stuck in the basement, but we hope to get them out soon, and we were hoping that you and Moon might be able to look after them for a while when we do—or at the very least, perhaps we could use the daycare as a gathering place?”

Sun nodded slowly, still looking a bit confused. “Yes, yes, of course we’ll take care of them! But… why are they stuck in the basement?”

“Because they're ghosts attached to the endoskeletons and don't know how to get out!” Gregory answered brightly, not phased in the slightest by Sun’s reaction. He figured telling the daycare attendant now was as good a time as any!  “And we're gonna help them out of there!”

Sun merely stared at Gregory for a long while as he tried to process the information, his head tilted so far to one side that his plastered smile was almost upside down. Just when Freddy was about to ask if he was okay, Sun suddenly shrugged and let out a hearty laugh.

“Well… Gregory’s a ghost and he’s a little ray of sunshine, so I’m sure the others are just as wonderful!” Sun exclaimed, hopping from foot to foot excitedly. “Ooh, it’ll be sooo nice to have little ones running around here at night as well! You have to keep us updated on your progress getting them out—and let me know if we can help!”

“Thank you, Sun,” Freddy said gratefully. He’d taken the information well, and the bear was happy about that.

“They’re gonna love you, I know it,” Bonnie added, smiling up at the tall animatronic.

Just as Gregory was getting comfortable, the sight of Sun staring at him for a moment too long soon made the boy immediately turn his head away. Of course, Gregory knew Sun never meant any harm, but he still couldn't help but be scared by certain gestures he did… and that apparently was one of them.

“I'm tired!” Gregory suddenly announced as he rubbed at his eyes, hoping Freddy got the hint.

“Alright, time to go,” Freddy said with a small chuckle, shifting Gregory to hold him closer. “Thank you again, Sun; we will let you know when there are any developments with the other children.”

“Please do!” Sun gave the group a cheerful wave as they moved to the exit.

“Good to see you!” Bonnie said with a grin, waving back over his shoulder.

“Yes; come visit again soon!” Sun called after them, then met Gregory’s gaze over Freddy’s shoulder and waved more vigorously, jumping up and down a few times. “Bye, sunshine!”

Gregory let out a relieved sigh as they started moving for the exit, lifting his head as Freddy turned. Upon seeing Sun wave, the boy hesitated a second before returning the gesture. “Bye…”

As they finally exited the daycare, Gregory let out a tired yawn. He was actually more exhausted than he’d originally thought, it seemed. He gave a small frown, looking back at Bonnie. “I wish Bonnie could stay with us…”

“I’ll be with you soon, don’t worry,” Bonnie reassured with a grin. “We’ve just gotta find a way to reintroduce me… but that’s okay, because even if I’m back in the official lineup, I’m gonna stay downstairs with the kids until they’re free!”

“Yes, we are not in a rush as far as Bonnie is concerned,” Freddy commented, then frowned slightly. “Although I am unsure of exactly how to present you to the company… we likely need a staff member on our side to vouch for us, as management does not tend to take animatronics at their word.”

“…What if we get Thomas and Leon?” Gregory suggested after a moment of thinking, patting Freddy’s shoulders excitedly. “I'm sure they wouldn't mind, and if they know the kids are closest to Bonnie it'd be even easier for them to say yes!”

“Hmm…,” Freddy hummed, perking up as well. “That is not a bad plan at all, superstar! Good thinking!”

“You think they’ll go for it right now?” Bonnie asked, a bit hesitantly. “From what I know about them, they seem kinda… easily overwhelmed, and they just learned about the kids.”

“Yes, that is a fair point.” Freddy thought for a moment, then nodded resolutely. “We will give them another day or two before bringing up the topic if possible, as I believe they are currently hyper-focused on the children—who of course are top priority.”

“I can't wait for them to come back and tell me about my powers!” Gregory said as he snuggled against Freddy's shoulder comfortably.

“We shall see what they found out,” Freddy said gently, not wanting Gregory to get his hopes up too much just in case the guards didn’t come back with the results they expected. “Keep in mind that they know even less about you than the rest of us do, although they have access to a wealth of information that we animatronics do not.”

“I’m sure they’ll find something good soon, though!” Bonnie added, ever the optimist. “Just based on the little bit I overheard, they seem really determined to help.”

“Maybe I'll have crazy powers like a superhero!” Gregory’s gasped, gently gripping Freddy's shoulders until he felt the dents from when Bonnie had squeezed him. While Freddy could feel the pressure of being actively squeezed, he couldn’t feel the dents themselves, although he figured that they were there.

Oh well—just another thing for the techs to fix tomorrow morning, along with cleaning out whatever pizza remnants were stuck inside Chica…

“Well, you can already teleport,” Freddy said, holding up the hand not supporting Gregory to count as he listed things. “And technically you are in a sense invincible… as well as invisible!” He met Gregory’s gaze with a grin. “I think you are well on your way to becoming a full-fledged superhero!”

Finally, the group reached Rockstar Row and Bonnie leaned over to give Gregory’s hair an aggressive ruffle. “Alright, this is where we split tonight; thanks for the awesome tour, bud!”

“Of course!” Gregory laughed as his hair was left messy and wild. “Tomorrow I can go back down to the basement... I promise!”

“Okay!” Bonnie said cheerfully, then gave Freddy a pat on the shoulder, smiling apologetically at the fingertip-shaped dents. “Sorry about that again, Fredbear…”

“Do not worry; I will be good as new in a few hours,” Freddy responded with a smile of his own. “Tell the children hello for us, will you?”

Bonnie nodded and Gregory waved goodbye as he was carried off, then smiled up at Freddy as he carefully shrugged his backpack off and dropped it on the couch. “Thanks, Freddy! You're the best dad ever!”

“And you are the best son ever, Gregory,” Freddy replied with a smile neatly placing his backpack in the nearby box. He then tucked Gregory in, fixing his hair as best he could. “Rest well, superstar.”

Gregory curled up for a moment before lifting his gaze, hugging a few of his plushies close. “Hey… Thanks for always taking care of me.”

“I will always be here for you, no matter what,” Freddy reassured, smiling down at him softly. “I love you very much, and nothing will ever change that.”

“I love you, too!” Gregory said, leaning up to give him one last hug before settling down to bed for another day.
