hell yeah! id also like to clarify i also love debate i think this is fun

1. why would gregory be in the plex for the mimic to mimic?

ggy makes this pretty easy to answer. hes been here before, just not as himself.

2. why would roxy be looking for someone who took her eyes? if they were taken prior to gregory, why not make them stronger?

for the first part, i would like to mention that roxy seems extremely disoriented in ruin at first. its possible she got hit by one of the go karts, or was simply having her eyes replaced/changed out for some other reason. at least in sb, security protocols are deactivated in the protective cylinder in parts and service, leaving them dangerous. if roxy was left in that state for whatever reason (say, a repair got interrupted by nasty earthquakes..), and the last thing she really remembers is someone taking her eyes.. you see where im going, yeah?

as for the second part, roxys upgrade is literally her eyes. so its very possible that an addition feature of it (one we arent told) is “these have a new attachment style that Hopefully Stays In Better than the last ones.” they didnt, but like, usually people dont hit the robots with go karts and rip out their eyes. just like chica, her beak would not typically be easy to remove - they both were quite literally crushed by something, weakening the stuff holding in their parts.

3. why are the glamrocks broken in the same way gregory broke them?

this ones pretty easy! gregory finds bags that hint/outright tell us that these robots break regularly. monty keeps getting knocked off the catwalks when someone hits a hurricane hole-in-one. roxy jumps in front of test drivers because she wants to ride. chica loves pizza, so be careful when trash compacting because that thing will crush a robot. this is not the first time theyve been broken in this way.

4. why would there be a maskbot with melted on bunny ears before vannys take over?

NOW were getting to the more difficult stuff. but, this theory still includes ggy/rab and vanny as being there, so its not that hard to explain. vannys been present since help wanted, which was seemingly pre-plex. and this mask isnt a retcon - this is a callback. thats the same design as the original “strange mask.” and it falling into cassies hands would explain why vanny is just a white rabbit, not white and brown! whether it was a prototype and changes were planned or it was lost at some point, vanny had to make her new mask and suit. it makes more sense to find that mask in good condition prior to sb, rather than after, at least to me.

and, on the topic of maskbot, they probably just took their casing and programming and slapped it on a new staff bot endo. not that hard. vanessa threatened freddy with something similar. i cant imagine theyd care much about saving mapbot with their head casing messed up. (or, they fixed them, and they have their hat to hide the messy seams?)

5. why would the minis be roaming, if were told they escaped during sb? why do they have the melted bunny ears if this is a prequel?

this was the main part i could make sense of in that section (if you want to reword the other parts in that bit feel free, but i couldnt understand them well so im leaving them out ^^;)

we dont have a date for the log in sb that tells us they broke out (or were ‘stolen’), so really, they couldve broken out pre-ruin and we just found a really old log. as for the bunny ears - casing can be replaced or repaired.

6. why would gregory not know the plex that well, if hes been there enough to be mimicked?

we dont know gregory doesnt know the plex well, firstly. we dont get context of if he knows the place or not, really. but again - if ggy is to be trusted to any degree, then rab should know his way around the plex, even if gregory doesnt.

7. why is it implied that gregory is trying to get freddy out, if its implied in ruin he already got one out?

i dont know where exactly its implied he already got freddy out in ruin (are you talking about the footprints/punch marks?), but this theory leans into “gregory isnt free yet” - its rab and mimic, never gregory. rab could control the animatronics as far as im aware, so the footprints and stuff can be explained by him and vanny traveling around with freddy to move stuff or keep guard or smth. especially since we dont have much other proof that gregory and vanessa took the full freddy body (how would they sneak him out? how did the prototype get there?), this might even make more sense in a way.

multiple perceptions of a situation means multiple explanations! switching my perception to “it was never gregory, hes still trapped” has led to some fascinating thoughts. fun!!

n. not to sound like a conspiracy theorist. but do we have like.. undeniable confirmation that ruin is a sequel. like.. ANY? at all? any dates? any references directly to sb?

anything?
