#also William bursting into Mike's room and nearly catching Evbear

[dire-kumori]

Begun fantasizing about a scenario in which, shortly after Evan’s passing, William throws Michael out of the house in the middle of the night in a moment of drunken rage. Isolated from his friends and estranged from his uncle, Michael makes his way to Fredbear’s Family Diner, which is still closed following the Bite. It’s just a place to crash for the night, before William sobers up and inevitably forgets he locked Mike out and gets angry all over again at him for ‘sneaking out.’ He knows the drill.

While in the restaurant Mike finds Fredbear with his little brother’s blood dried all over it. Despite being pretty numb over the past several weeks, he’s suddenly overcome with every emotion he’s been bottling up; fear, rage, sorrow, pain, and so, so much guilt. He breaks down into sobs, apologizing to the animatronic as if Evan would be able to hear him through the animatronic.

And Evan... does.

The sound of Michael’s voice wakes up Evan’s spirit inside the animatronic. He’s confused, terrified, not recognizing where he is or what form he’s in. He does recognize Michael, however, and reacts with sheer horror. As does Michael when he sees Fredbear begin moving on its own and shrieking and flailing around on stage.

Between Evan’s screaming and panicking and sobbing, Michael puzzles out that the seemingly haunted animatronic is, in fact, his little brother. He’s equally terrified; Evan has every reason to hate him and want him dead, and in that large, metal body he could very easily make that happen. But even so, he inches his way towards Evbear, and softly says his brother’s name. Evan’s animatronic body can’t cry, but Michael can hear mechanical sobs echoing from inside as Evan says he just wants to go home and begs Michael to take him there.

And Michael... does.

All of this because I want a comical reverse-heist scene of Michael sneaking his now six foot tall metal brother into the house without alerting William.
