Spooktober Day 1.

Title:Bittersweet Reunion.

August Robinson finished setting up the newest animatronic for his pizzeria. Well, he shared ownership of the place with Michael, but he was only here during the night. He stepped back from the stage to inspect the new animatronic.

It was a black bear with a light orange eye. He seemed to be missing one of his eyes, but August could get it fixed if he found the right part. He also had red eyelids and cheeks, and there was a yellow star on his chest. He wore a red top hat and red bowtie as well as red knee caps. In his left hand, he was holding a yellow microphone.

"Lefty."

"You look a lot like Rockstar Freddy, heh, maybe I should've put you with the rest of the rockstar animatronics."

"Then again, there isn't much room on that stage for five animatronics."

August sighed and rubbed his eyes.

"And I'm talking to myself again, great."

He walked past the office and saw that it was unlocked.

"Hm?"

He went inside to investigate. While he was in the office. Lefty went online, and he began looking around the place.

"Does this place seem familiar to you, Charlie?"

A little ghost of a girl appeared next to the bear. She had on a mask that resembled the Marionette.

"Yeah, it does, I wonder if my friends are here."

They got off the side stage and went to the main stage. They saw the rockstar animatronics. Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy. All of them were here.

"Guys, wake up!"

After Charlie said that, four other ghosts appeared. Three boys and one girl. Each of them sported a mask that resembled a different animatronic. Gabriel wore the Freddy mask. Jeremy had a mask of Bonnie. Susie wore a Chica mask. And Fritz had on a Foxy mask.

"Charlie!"

"You're okay!"

"We were worried about you!"

"Did you find Cassidy and Evan?"

"Yeah, they're here too!"

"Come on out guys."

A golden version of Freddy appeared in front of everyone. With him were two more spirits. A boy and girl. The boy wore a mask that looked like a shadow version of Freddy while the girl wore a mask that looked like Golden Freddy.

"Yay! We're all together again!"

August came back out of the office, and he was stunned. He saw all of them, the robots and the ghosts. He wanted to run away but he also wanted to know if it was really them.

"Is that... August?"

Evan went over to where August was standing.

"Auggie? Is that you?"

"Evan... Are you really here?"

"Yeah! We're all here."

"Wow, he's so tall now!"

"I'm happy that the bad man never found you."

"Yay, we're glad you're okay!"

August couldn't believe what he was seeing. They were all here. All of them. His friends that he made at the various Fazbear locations. He thought he'd lost them all when they died. Their deaths drove him away from this place out of fear. Yet, something kept telling him to go back. Something told him that they were looking for him. He didn't think that he would ever find them yet. Here he was, talking to them. He couldn't help but start crying. He was finally seeing his friends after so long.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm just happy to see you all."

As they were talking, the Mediocre Melodies came into the main room. They also had ghosts with them, and they wore masks that resembled the toy animatronics. Luke, Samuel, Tina, Danny, and Billy. August was happy to see them, too. The group was so busy catching up that they didn't even notice that the building had been set on fire. It wasn’t until August smelled smoke that he realized what was really happening. Henry brought them all together, and he was going to save all of them. August thought about running, but he chose not to. He wanted to be with his friends one last time before he died.

The souls tried to urge him to leave.

"You need to get out of here!"

"It's not your time to go yet!"

"We don't want you to die!"

He gave his friends a soft smile as a tear slowly creeped down his face.

"It's okay, it's going to be okay."

"I wanna be with you guys, one last time."

As the fire got worse, August struggled to breathe as the smoke filled his lungs. His coughing got more and more painful. At one point, he coughed up blood. It dripped down his mouth and hand. As he sat there, a familiar figure looked over him. The greenish fur with white eyes and a rabbit ear. He might've looked different, but August knew exactly who he was.

"Hello Spring Bonnie, or is it William Afton?"

"Well, well, it's you, the little boy who couldn't mind his own business."

"You killed them, why?"

"I had my reasons."

"Jealousy, revenge, immortality."

"My motive seemed to change over time."

"You caused so much pain and suffering for them."

"Do you think I cared about if the children were suffering or not?!"

"Ha! It didn't matter, as long as I harvested their remnant to remain immortal."

"You cared about Evan and Elizabeth, and both were killed by your creations!"

"That was a long time ago, I'm not that man anymore."

"That man, the business owner of Fredbears Family Diner, is long gone."

He got onto the stage and slashed through his stomach with the axe that he had found.

"Gnh!"

August struggled against the axe as it dug into his belly. He managed to pull the axe out and rip it out of Afton's arm.

"I think the devil is waiting for you."

With whatever strength that August had left. He tackled Afton to the ground and began hacking away at his body with the axe. He tore Afton's new body apart till there was nothing but his head. With one last swing, he dug the axe deep into his head. He stumbled back onto the floor and looked up to see Charlie, reaching out her hand towards his. He reached for hers, but it fell to the floor as his vision went black and his heartbeat faded away.

"It was late summer. The river is very shallow at that time of year, and the bottom was half exposed and braided like water. There were sandbars right across, the bigger ones small jungles of weedy vegetation weedily in bloom, with butterflies and dragonflies attending on them like spirits... The sun was shining as well as it could onto that shadowy river, a good part of the shine being caught in the trees. And the cicadas were chanting, and the willows were straggling their tresses in the water, and the cottonwood and the ash were making that late summer hush, that sussurus." -- Gilead, Marilynne Robinson

My July, August, & September Reads

Quietly Hostile, Samantha Irby - These essays reminded me of Irby's first book, Meaty, which happens to be one of my favorite collections—hallelujah! Quietly Hostile is so so funny and occasionally disgusting; it's perfect.

Housekeeping, Marilynne Robinson - Some beautiful sentences, but overall it is too much of a bummer. It messed me up for a few days.

Scattered Showers, Rainbow Rowell - Words can't express how thrilled I am that Rainbow Rowell has a multi-book deal for brand new adult novels. I enjoy her YA as much as everyone else, but Attachments and Landline—her two adult novels—are so cozy/funny/wonderful. Also, I'm old! I want to read about fellow olds. This collection is a mix of YA and adult stories; she revisits characters from past books and introduces us to new characters as well. The standouts for me were the Covid lockdown love story, the Attachments story, and the mermaid fairy tale at the end.

Less Is Lost, Andrew Sean Greer - I'm not generally a fan of road trip novels, but I'm a huge fan of this author and his character, Arthur Less, so I gave it a chance and thank goodness for that! I laughed out loud over and over again. Fingers crossed for a third Less novel.

This Story Will Change: After the Happily Ever After, Elizabeth Crane - I took this with me on a milestone birthday/anniversary trip to Mexico, and it was the ideal vacation read—I was riveted by the drama. Whew!

The Last Picture Show, Larry McMurtry - My first Larry McMurtry book and now I have to read all of them, because this one is a masterpiece. It's devastating but it also has some laughs, and by the end I fully believed the characters were real. If you read this based on my recommendation and don't like it......I simply don't care and you don't need to tell me!

Because of Winn-Dixie, Kate DiCamillo - This was on the shelves at my Airbnb in Guanajuato, and I couldn't resist the opportunity to re-read it on what must be one of the world's most beautiful balconies. Kate DiCamillo, thank you, you goddess.

Eleanor Powell: Born to Dance (Screen Classics) by Paula Broussard & Lisa Royere #ARCReview #BookReview #NetGalley #UniversityPressofKentucky #Biography #Musicals #Hollywood #Broadway

I love musicals, and one of my favorite dancers who seems lost to history is #EleanorPowell. A new #Biography finally gives her her due. #BorntoDance #universitypress #ARC Review #NetGalley #BookReview #MGMMusicals #FredAstaire #BargainSleuth

When considering the best dancers in Hollywood’s history, some obvious names come to mind—Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, and Bill Robinson. Yet often overlooked is one of the most gifted and creative dancers of all time, Eleanor Powell. Powell’s effervescent style, unmatched technical prowess in tap, and free-flowing musicality led MGM to build top-rate musicals around her unique talents, including…
