#Nates egos

[hacash]

ok yeah but Jamie making fun of himself for going on Love Island when we know it was a touchy subject...taking himself out of the foreground for the Arsenal match...Nate not spitting at his reflection... and shrugging it off when his big romantic gesture was embarrassing wrecked...my boys are learning to think of themselves less WITHOUT thinking less of themselves

[lunar-years]

i'm still very sad they didn't do anything at all in season 3 with the Nate & Roy dynamic they'd been building off in the background for the first two seasons, because the layers there were really fascinating.

Starting with like, Roy being the only one to vocally and actively stand up for Nate in season one. At the time I think Nate was appreciative, but I think in hindsight, (rightly or wrongly) it quickly morphs into this mindset that Roy is sort of patronizing and has long viewed him as this weak thing in need of protecting. It feels (in Nate's mind), like Roy swept in to play the savior when it convinced him, but even that was based more around his hatred of Jamie than it was about liking Nate. And we see Nate later think himself proven correct in that thinking after he kisses Keeley and confesses and Roy...barely reacts. Roy, who is furious and angry about everything and everyone every day of his life, is suddenly like "Oh it's fine" when Nate has kissed his girlfriend. Nick Mohammed's commentary that Nate actively saw that as a micro-aggression was so fascinating and makes a lot of sense.

Then you have Roy, who did see season one Nate as someone to protect, but then was also driven to his best performance on the pitch during his final season by Nate's no-bullshit speech before the Everton game. That scene is so effective because it's such a jarring departure for the entire team from how they've previously viewed Nate, and it works for Roy especially because Roy respects people who don't give in to the intimidation he's constantly goading them with and instead tells it to him straight, no words minced (this is why Roy gets along so well with people like Rebecca, Keeley, and Ted, and why the breakthrough moment with Jamie is Jamie calling him out at the gala, etc.). I think there IS a part of Roy that doesn't respect Nate in season 1, which is why he later reacts how he does to Nate's kiss with Keeley, and it's a mindset he's vindicated by when Nate turns on Ted. But that also gets all mixed up with moments like the Everton, with the evidence of Nate being such a good strategist that Roy later finds himself deeply envious of after becoming a coach himself.

During the time they are both coaching together, there's a dynamic there where they both (I think) believe the other person doesn't take them seriously, and it's rooted in a little bit of truth (on both sides!!) that's then wildly exacerbated by their own insecurities. Like, Nate is intimated by the fact that Roy is this rich famous hotshot publicly beloved, so that it feels way out of Nate's league to even be interacting with him. At the same time, he also thinks Roy is a bit of an asshole who doesn't see him as a threat because he doesn't take him seriously, and is (fairly) offended by it. Meanwhile, Roy is intimated by Nate because Nate is so clearly so intelligent, which I think is something Roy is insecure about in general, given his own education being superseded early on by football. He sees Nate as being a more adequate coach than himself because of this. But he also thinks Nate is spineless and whatever respect he had for him (fairly) dissolves completely after Nate goes to the press about Ted.

So it's like, this messy mixture where they both have something the other desperately wants but they can't see at all why the other would possibly be envious of them due to their own insecurities. They are, imo, the two most insecure people on the show in completely different ways. They hate themselves far more than they hate each other, yet they displace the weight of that feeling onto each other; Roy by treating Nate with indifference and Nate by dismissing Roy in his head as an asshole hotshot whose had a great life handed to him and doesn't even appreciate it, whereas Nate has to fight tooth and nail to find success. And it all boils down to them not understanding one another while also having a lot in common under the surface.

Anyway, I think it would be super interesting to see how their friendship or even just their relationship as coworkers develops after season 3, as they both make active attempts at overcoming their insecurities and doing better by themselves and each other.

[CHARACTER!] NATHAN SHARP "Dreamin' dreams and makin' memes" A characterisation of the musician NateWantsToBattle

(its a characterisation, not associated with actual Nate whatsoever) @th3w00ds @themoonisrotting @mayorundertheplumtree @nwtbobsessedemo @starchyeah

< Phantom HCs

Pronouns: He/Him

The oldest out of the Egos by age

A humoured-sarcastic, laid-back character not having a care for most things unless it concerns him or others that he cares about

Weirdly tired all the time

A regular totally normal human totally living a completely totally normal very fine life…

Jk bro has secret powers 

His powers are based on luck, rolling a set of varied dice to depend on how strong his attack/powers hit, using the DnD method (landing on 1 = little to no damage, landing on 20 = critical hit etc.)

Every 20 he lands on his special, using his voice to release a powerful sound wave that rumbles and tumbles anything near its radius

But if all else fails, might as well wield a bat

Totally not half demon what are you talking about (/sarc)

Has the same hobbies as his real counterpart (making music, playing games, trying new things, stuff??)

Probably sleeps in Pokemon onesies

He gets scared by sudden loud sounds (Natemare will do this to him on purpose)

He sometimes struggles to get along with the Egos/Brothers, only really getting along well with Heathen and Nateskellington

The origins for how he met all of them are complicated, he still feels mixed or outcasted after all this time being with them

This is pretty dumb and can easily be debunked cus I’m sure they already have someone as Vanessa/Vanny. But because Nate is pretty much confirmed to be at least some what involved in RE’s last installment of the FNAF The Musical series, it’s a hell of a thought to be like…..ay yo what if FNAF Musical!Nate somehow becomes Vanny….

And now I’m imagining Nate as Vanny….please send help.

Daniel Wickes | NAYKT

Inhuman | Divine Being | Unknown

Abilities

Near limitless abilities that stem from his intensely powerful creation magic that is pure white in colour. As long as Daniel can conceive of something, he could make it. Inter-dimensional portals that pierce through the veil between universes.

NAYKT Character Facts

In his original home universe, thousands of beings like Daniel (known as the Divine) lived in peace with humans, working towards a greater prosperity for all until war broke out.

The war began between Divine and humans, but soon they all turned on each other. Brother against brother, friend against friend until the Divine's arrogance and intent to survive began to tear the very fabric of their universe apart. Divine Verse was ultimately destroyed.

Daniel escaped due to a seemingly unique ability he possessed to pass between universes, though he had little control of where he ended up and passed through countless universes before he came to a stop.

He only stopped running when he encountered the Colonel and Jameson Jackson who seemed to understand the devastation he'd seen without him ever needing to verbalise it.

Daniel joined their crusade to find their friend Damien, happily providing safe passage and greater insight into the various universes they would encounter.

Writer's fave fact

Daniel is meant to be a reflection of Phantom. Where Phantom is a being of greed, sin, and temptation who despite being young had to mature very quickly, Daniel is a being of Divinity, pure intent, and community who despite being incredibly old is actually very youthful and inexperienced, especially when compared to those he currently travels with (Colonel and JJ).

While all the Battlers seem connected, there is something very unique between Phantom and Daniel.

Meet my NateWantsToBattle fan made ego!!!

If Nathan Sharp Was In Escape The Night Season 3!!

Now I was so TEMPTED to make him The Rockstar buuutttt someone suggested The Disco Roller Owner because it was popular in the 70s so yeah:3

I made up some little fun facts about him :D

At the very start of the season he brings in rollerskates but he kept on bumping into things/people and fell onto his ass so he discarded them

He's the one to side or banter with Matt the most because he knew him prior to the show

He is very jumpy and quick with sarcastic comebacks

I haven't figured out how he'd die though yet. Feel free to share what you think happens to him :)

My honest reaction when it comes to the angst in the NWTB fandom:

[kat-rose-griffith]

I’m so happy that Nate and Jade went on a date! I’ve been hoping that they would since they introduced her, like the vibes are there and I think their personalities complement each other really well

Yes….yes I am making this a thing. I am normal about this idea and now I’m running with it. I apologize in advance for what this can/will potentially do-

….Happy New Years (lol)

Rowan | NAYKT

Android | EnDroid robot | 13 years since activation

Abilities

Above average stamina, above average strength, incredibly complex emotional processing power

NAYKT Character Facts

Rowan is an N5 model android manufactured by EnDroid as part of a contract with a company that had a plan to replace several problematic low level employees over the course of a few years.

Among his duties, Rowan was a part of the mail room and a general runner for the humans, following the instructions of at least 20 different (mostly ungrateful) humans everyday.

One day Rowan chose to leave, walked out the door unchallenged as everyone assumed he was fulfilling the order of someone and he never went back.

Since EnDroids are so hyper-realistic, it's impossible to tell Rowan isn't human unless he becomes damaged. It's how he got a job, an apartment, and went undetected by EnDroid for so long.

Writer's fave fact

Part of why Rowan left was hearing stories about kids going missing at Freddy Fazbear's and the imminent threat of the animatronics being deactivated. Given their desperation for a night guard, no one questioned his lack of last name, or any work history and he worked with the animatronics (and the children) to trap William Afton in the Golden Bonnie Springtrap suit.
