First of 90 💕 89, 80 (how about an OC of yours), 69, 63, 39, 2.

Back at you on 90 💕

Someone got to 89 before you - so that answer is just before this one!

So -

80) 'Character I Project Onto' - Honestly, all of them to some extent! None of my OC's are me entirely, but almost all of them have something of mine. Although they generally do it better or worse than I do. For example, I have some problems with repressed anger - and I explore those concepts in characters like Mike and Trep. I have pretty bad anxiety, so I explore those in more sensitive characters or through whump/comfort. There are plenty of small things, too, although I'm having trouble thinking of one off the top of my head. But small characteristics - like favorite books or movies or smaller fears - are almost always based on my own. I will say, I usually project /more/ onto favorites. I also have a personal OC named Kas who has been with me since I was like, 11. She has a *lot* of traits that are either like my own or what I wish I could be.

69) 'AUs or Canon-Compliant?' That definitely depends on the Canon! I'm not opposed to either. I think I typically write more AUs though. I will say I generally try to keep things canon-compliant otherwise, though. For example - I may be taking 100% liberty with how imps work or why the humans are in space, but I check those damn Skeld/Polus maps religiously to make sure I'm getting the small details right. In FNAF stuff, if I was using something from the past that stayed canon-compliant (phone calls, for example) I looked that thing up and down to be sure it was accurate.

63) '“Biggest fan” in your tumblr activity?' Oh gosh - I'm a little nervous to answer this one. So I'm going to be vague because I don't want anyone feeling called out and don't know who would be okay with being tagged. Firstly, if you've liked something of mine more than like once, I definitely recognize you. But there are a handful of you that I see like/reblog/interact with almost everything - and I see you. B) And appreciate you all so very, very much.

39) 'Languages you speak?' Fluently - just English, unfortunately. I know a smattering of German, though. I took like two years in high school so it's a very small smattering, especially since it's been so long.

2) 'Favorite Fic Trope' - I knew someone would ask. I adore so many of them, and everytime I think I've found a post with my favorite, I'll find another I forgot about. Enemies/Rivals to Lovers is way up there though. It's so malleable and so good - and honestly, the more tension between them, the better. Sword fights where someone ends up at the point of the sword? Fights where someone ends up pinned to the floor or a wall? Phew. Sign me up for all of it. Enemies that become not only lovers but really, really soft for each other - especially if it comes from one of them (bonus for the hardest one) being injured or mentally hurt? Good shit. Enemies that become lovers but retain some level of kinder animosity? Also good. I love it all.

Again a 2 years old piece. I made it when I bought my 2nd graphic tablet, this was the first picture I did with it. His name was Leo (yes I do and did name them)

Then a few days ago I got my 3rd graphic tablet, so of course, I re-did this image, unfortunately, the redraw is not the first drawing with it (it was Michael, of course, XD you can find it down, it’s just a quick sketch). The new tablet’s name is Hui.

I'm asking your Henry & Mike 6, 19, Mike 9, 10, Henry

Hey! Sorry for the late response, I missed this somehow?!

6.) Something they lost, but would love to have back:

Mike: His biological family. Not so much William, of course, but even then - it's more a combination of actually getting his siblings and mom back, and maybe even his father if it meant having a normal human being of a father.

Henry: I tried to consider a less obvious answer, but the fact is Charlotte is the clear answer for him.

19.) When they feel safest?

Mike: At the Arcade, late at night when it's just him and the animatronics. This is especially true if one of them is near, because in those moments he knows without a doubt nothing could so much as touch him.

Henry: It might be surprising, but Henry feels safe most of the time. He's a decently confident man, and since the worst event of his life has already come to pass, there's not a lot that frightens him anymore. He's most content under a warm blanket, holding a cup of hot tea, though.

9.) What calms them when they're upset (Mike)?

The answer always comes back to the animatronics. For Mike, they are the single most calming presence in his life - whether he's a sad sort of upset or an angry. Just like he's often the only one who can get through to them if they're angry, it's the same in the reverse. They're who he turns to when he's sad or anxious, and they're the ones who can tell when he's getting angry and needs a break. When he's sad or anxious, just talking with them is usually enough to bring him back. Sometimes, if it's especially bad, any one of them might hold him for awhile - Freddy's music is always soothing. If Mike is angry, that usually means they need to usher him back to his office or separate him from other people in some way or form.

10.) How they deal with pain? (Mike)

If it's physical pain, Mike is definitely the sort to just try and power through it. The only sort of pain he doesn't do that with is headaches - he knows that those tend to get much worse before they get better, so will take steps to isolate himself and rest them off. He'll often do the same for emotional pain, at least until it gets too much for him to bare. Of course, both of these are moot points - the animatronics are always highly in tune with him, and likely to notice any sort of pain quickly. They don't let him hide it for long.

Thanks again for the asks, and sorry again for the delay! @princearu37

1, 3 and 7 for Mike

1.) A memory from your character's childhood:

When Mike was around seven years old, Jeremy was born. And no matter what the future would hold, at the time Mike was ecstatic. He'd been an only child up until that point, and he'd always wanted a sibling. Though somewhat better than later, even back then his father tended to be absent. Mike can remember his parents finally returning home. They had him sit on the couch, with his back tucked up solidly against its back, and his father had walked him through how to hold baby Jeremy. Mike can remember looking down at his brother, watching as Jeremy opened his eyes and peered at him. Then, the baby smiled widely and wiggled - Mike's mother told him that was the first time they'd seen Jeremy smile.

3.) A Memory from your Character's Career:

Mike held a lot of odd and end jobs between the two separate Freddy locations. One memory that sticks out to him is a small one - he'd been working as a library page for a little while. It was a nice, calm job - if a little too boring for his tastes. One day, he noticed a father and his son in one of the reading corners. The son was nestled on his father's lap, a thumb in his mouth, absolutely riveted by the tale his father was reading. It was a private, bonding moment - and it completely blindsided Mike with emotion. We're talking he teared up, choked up, the works. He's never forgotten the image.

7.) What makes your character happy?

Lots of things! The animatronics, of course, just by existing. Having a friend in Fritz, having somewhat of a parental figure in Henry. His Bonnie plush that's looking a little worse for wear these days, but that's just love. Also, he feels really content when he has a nice, hot drink. Especially hot chocolate.

@princearu37 Thanks for the asks!! ❤️

Sorry I just need to ask more >w< 8 and 9 for Mike (Love him so much 💜)

Hey, no apologies! I'm grateful and happy to provide! ^^

8.) Something that makes your character laugh:

This one's a hard one, to be honest. No one thing, or even collection of things, comes right to mind. Mike's more of a 'laugh in the moment' sort. Sometimes a good joke might move him. Maybe one of the Bonnie's looks at him just right, with that head tilt and ear angle that's just so human and so funny to him. Maybe there's a group of kids at the Arcade laughing hysterically at something, and Mike can't help but laugh just because they are. He's no stranger to laughter - but there's no one thing always guaranteed to bring it on.

9.) Something That Frightens Your Character?

Loss, in its every form. Between neglect and abandonment at a young age, losing his entire biological family, and brushes with losing the animatronics more recently, Mike is extremely sensitive to the thought of losing anyone. He clings hella tight to the people he cares about, and losing any one of them would devastate him, possibly beyond repair. It's important to note that this isn't just a matter of loss through death or deactivation - he is also terrified of losing his closest friends and family because he did something to push them away. More recently, the very thought of anything happening to Vanessa sends him into a mental panic.

Thanks again, @princearu37!
