So anymore funfacts about anyone? Red, Freddy, anyone you want? (I was gonna send in an ask like right after the last one but then I had an anxiety attack, the universe will not stop me from talking to you 😂)

(Took me a few days bc my phone was the GPS to get home and I’ve been relaxing and winding down and also i can’t answer on my PC rn bc I share a room with my sister and she has to get up at like 4 am for work and I type rly fast and loud and it wakes her up, keeps her awake and ticks her off lmao so mobile post! I hope you feel better now! ;w; I LOVE TALKING TO YOU TALK TO ME MORE 👀 discord)

Also you said fun facts and I wrote a book, thanks.

Freddy is the most level headed, yet also the most dangerous out of ALL of the animatronics (this does not include the shadows and nightmares, as they’re not technically real animatronics, or the puppet who is basically the closest thing possible to a mortal god). He knows things none of the others know, and often the first person he tells anything to is either Red (as the Toys’ leader and bc of their personal relationship ofc) or Bonnie (his best friend, inside and outside of the programming). He witnessed the very first murder (after the Bite of ‘83, so Fredbear’s is shut down and it’s the first official Freddy Fazbear restaurant), along with the Puppet, but as this is before the (first) children are murdered he can do nothing but adhere to his code. He began to glitch out of course, as the first sign of autonomy fought with his programming. He and the other OGs did not gain full autonomy until they came in contact with the murdered children, though they have always been sentient (can you imagine…)

Bonnie ADORES cute things. He’ll never admit it though. He’s a little bitter and a little jealous, but the Toys quickly endear themselves to him in part because of their cute very-80’s design. He’s loyal to a fault but when his trust is broken, its a bitch to get back. He has Freddy’s back no matter what. He likes to bicker with Chica and Foxy, and often insults and teases them as big brothers do, but the moment someone else does he’s ready to throw down. He’s very protective and mildly possessive, but Freddy’s working with him on that last bit- possessive is not good and Bonnie knows that.

Chica was programmed bilingual, with English and Spanish in order to help children who only spoke the latter (the Hispanic population was fairly high in their city and Henry was highly aware of the children and their parents who only knew Spanish, so it was good to have someone always there who can communicate). She cooks, of course, she’s Chica, and while she and Bonnie definitely have the bickering teasing sibling relationship she’s closest to Foxy. Those two, while they will have a go at each other, will usually band together and are often found playing games together. Foxy is the one she feels she can trust with her secrets.

Foxy is good at keeping secrets. He’s a storyteller and loves to play pretend, and often he can glean info from the others based on what they choose their characters to be or do. He gets the others to open up to him easily, and of the OGs he’s probably the most open and sympathetic, allowing him to easily befriend the Toys when they meet. He’s also the most sensitive, so he’s the most torn up about the murdered children, but his reactions to hurt is often violence- against himself, against the perpetrator, against the wall, etc… But he never hurts his friends.

The Golden duo were actually built by a novice inventor (though she was a genius), initially as babysitters and entertainers for the inventor’s children (single mother). However, the kids in the neighborhood LOVED them so she opened the diner. It ran for a few years, over time the Golden duo gaining their autonomy as they learned. This was in the 50’s, and this tech was unheard of back then so it obviously caught attention. Time passed and the inventor eventually died in the late 70’s, and her children teamed up with Henry and William to bring in new animatronics to expand the “family.” Thus Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy were built (the band came first, Foxy was added later) and placed in a sister restaurant… When ‘83 happened, the inventor’s kids shut the restaurant down (feeling ashamed that their beloved goldies could cause such harm) and sold all of the rights to Henry and William, under the condition that their mother’s characters always be honoured; and thus the name Fredbear remains, even if only in programming.

Henry is the one who built the OGs, using the blueprints and plans from the golden duo in order to achieve the same effect. William, wanting to best Henry (William was a very very jealous and selfish man), began secretly working on the Sister Location before ‘83 (basically right after Henry revealed the OG Fazband), and he made the blueprints for the Toys (as they were the prototypes for the SL) from scratch, using very little of the Goldens’ creator’s code and instead using a child genius who would never know any better. The child was forced into writing the first “living code”, which would grow and develop on its own- the first true AI, or so William thought (the OGs and Goldens learn and grow but that’s through time and observation and ghosts, they weren’t actually programmed for it). As such, the Toys from the moment they woke up could feel.

William is a monster. He murders for fun. Freddy was the first to show aggression towards him- Freddy saw the murder, but he didn’t see the murderer, but he never liked how William reacted to finding out about the child found dead in the alley, especially since he was supposed to be a family friend. William murdered the first set of children out of anger at Henry, wanting to see “Mr. Perfect” fail- not realizing Henry was spiraling (the first child was Henry’s daughter, Sammy). When Freddy’s shut down and they decided to reopen, he decided that instead of letting Henry have the glory of refitting the OGs, he introduced Henry to the Toys.

The Toys have no knowledge of William, beyond “our creator.” They also don’t know of the child genius that William used and abused to create them, though they do have fragments of memory about them.

Blue is the most sensitive about the “replacement” thing. After he finds out, he refuses to respond to the name Bonnie- even has an actual breakdown over it because “if you’re not Freddy and I’m not Bonnie then who the heck are we?!” Total existential crisis. He even breaks a mirror in the bathroom. It’s after that that the Toys officially take up nicknames to use among themselves.

The Toys were given the OGs’ props when they were activated, but they gave them back. The restaurant crew eventually got tired of having to fetch the props from the back and just ordered new props for the Toys.

Mangle’s nickname was originally Vixy, but after being ripped apart they embraced the name Mangle and decided they liked the sound of it. Red tried to reason with them about it but Mangle was firm in their decision.

The Toys and OGs (as the Withereds) never hunted the night guard. The night guards were scared stiff when the animatronics moved and got it in their heads that they were being hunted. The animatronics had no reason to hunt the night guard; they didn’t know after all. The Withereds did tell the Toys about the first set of murders (and Freddy admitted the truth about the first child to Red), but the Toys couldn’t imagine the pain until they went through it themselves (second set of murdered kids).

Red and Chii take the most issue with being called “Toy”- Red because it likens them to cheap knockoffs and Chii because it likens them to simple objects meant to be played with and tossed away. Mangle and Blue were indifferent to the title.

The Toys are the only ones who saw the murderer. The secret of his identity died with them.

William (under the alias Dominic Fueller) masqueraded as a guard after he and Henry had a falling out, and during this time he kidnapped the kids and murdered them. This time he was more careful, and the Toys were the only witnesses. However, when the OGs later read about the Bite of '87 (which targeted William but ended up getting selfless little Jeremy instead), they put the pieces together that it was a night guard (as the paper said they “cornered a guard”) and began hunting night guards from that day onwards.

All in all there were 11 murdered children and 2 bite victims. Bite of '83 was the crying child, shortly after that was Sammy, then in '85 was the first five children who briefly haunted the restaurant and the OGs’ suits (their bodies were found, however, and properly interred so they moved on bc closure). Then '87 came and the second set of murders happened, and the day after was the Bite of '87.

Henry committed suicide shortly after '87, leaving William with the rest of the company… But he stuck around.

Things between the Toys and OGs was initially rocky, but no one was outright hostile. Of the Toys, Red was the first to reach out a hand, and of the OGs Foxy was the first (though Freddy did extend pleasantries, as the leader). Bonnie just sort of started hanging around and Blue on a whim gave him back his guitar, and that simple act is what truly bridged the gap. Soon the Toys decided to fix the OGs up, with Red hoping one day the OGs would perform again. Blue often voiced a desire to perform alongside Bonnie, not as Old and New but as Bonnie and Blue.

When Mangle was ripped apart with no hope of being fixed, everyone did what they could to make things better for them. However, Mangle came to the conclusion eventually that they liked being a “spider fox.” They could go places and do things the others couldn’t, and soon it became the norm to look up and see a fox chillin on the ceilin

The animatronics have souls of their own, formed over time, circumstance and experiences. They’re all reunited in the end, and either stay in the afterlife or move on to another life- hopefully a happier one. Surprise, all my AUs are connected in a multiverse 😂 they exist parallel to each other, sometimes even in the same universe/timeline but at different points in time. They’re all the lives the animatronics (and night guards and children) live, whether it’s in another universe or the same. They have happy stories and not so happy stories… But they’re stories. Their stories. And they always find each other, one way or another.

Oh yeah those next and parallel lives I mentioned? Yeah the souls carry wounds that transcend time and space. 9 times out of 10, their names or nicknames will be the same, they’ll look as they always did, and they hold the same scars as their animatronic forms.

Tying Loose Ends

Once again, I’d like to thank everyone who made me a Sim for this BC. As always, you’re what really made this BC possible. Also, condolences to everyone who lost a Sim in this BC. Extra condolences to @mercurypixels, whose sim ended up being the goddamn murderer (though I didn’t put Asha through quite as much hell as I put Caesar through, so there’s that). Finally, special thanks and congratulations to @socialjusticesimblr! (Even if Cordelia wasn’t really supposed to win... she did! Congratulations!)

Again, as I always say in the end, thank you as well to everyone (with or without a Sim in this) who supported me along the way in one way or another. To everyone who liked and replied to my posts. To all the Twitter mutuals who tweeted about this BC and made me feel more important than I really am. Thank you all.

Like most of my projects, doing this BC was a bumpy ride at times. The fact that the file kept crashing at the start, the fact that the file got corrupted once, school taking a higher priority than this BC and causing delays, et cetera. (This BC really taught me that my mostly-real-time storytelling thing + keeping up with school = unnecessary extra stress, and that it’s best to do BCs when you’re not in school.) And I can’t help but feel like I over-hyped the whole thing, considering how this was actually the first BC I wanted to do (and Missy was the first Sim I ever made for this blog) and how Rosenberg and Camisade were both meant as warm-ups for this. But, still, it was a rewarding experience overall. I’d probably edit the hell out of this BC (and my other two, for that matter) if I had the chance to, but I’m still happy with it. And support from all of you made it even more worth it.

Some other things, like fun facts and the like:

Way before I actually started doing it, I had more ambitious plans for Collins MMBC. (That’s why I needed Camisade MMBC as a warm-up. I wanted a more “normal” MMBC.) Mainly, there were going to be two murderers: one who came up with the idea on their own (...well, from knowing about MMBCs beforehand) and was just trying to get to Missy, and one who was forced to do it by Cheyenne. I had all these complicated rules on how I was gonna do it. (I also considered having Ian be the third murderer. The Dice decided against it when I asked them back in November 2015, and TBH, I probably would’ve decided against it anyway. He’s a good boy.)

The reason I was originally going to ask for even more contestants than I did was because (besides the first, which was going to be a single murder from Cheyenne’s murderer regardless) each death had a 1 in 3 chance to be a double murder, one victim from each killer.

I was also originally going to have there be a chance, regardless of who wins, of a Very Bad Ending in which Cheyenne does succeed in getting Missy back, but like... nooooooooooo...

What happens after that... I never really decided. Is that just the end of Missy’s story? Does she reunite with the winner? Guess we’ll never know!

I ditched these plans because I still wasn’t totally sure how I was going to do it 100% fairly, and I was running out of time before I wanted to start Collins MMBC. And I couldn’t really consult anybody for advice on it, because... everyone I might’ve asked is my audience, and I didn’t plan on revealing the Two Murderers thing until later on.

Speaking of Bad Endings, I had plans for if Asha won that were... pretty grim. For one, Ian would’ve been the only survivor. (If anyone asks, I’ll tell what my full plans were.)

I never answered anything about the cats, but the cats aren’t going away any time soon, either. Trust me. They will be back.

Yeah, the Interlude was thought up at the last minute because doing Fun IRL Stuff without a queue makes me uncomfortable.

The three things I learned from this BC:

As mentioned earlier, BCs work best when you’re not currently in school. Especially if you do the real-time thing.

If your bacheloret isn’t somewhere in their early 20s, be sure to say that, or your bacheloret’s contestants will all be in their early 20s.

(It could be worse, I guess. Missy’s just in her late 20s. Her very late 20s.)

(Wish her a happy 30th on August 25th!)

Do BCs in small worlds. Autonomy is better, though I’m not 100% sure why.

I eventually plan to release a pose pack of all the poses I made for this BC, but... because there’s so many, I’m wondering... would it be better to release them in smaller pieces (like, by episode), or all together like I did with the Camisade pose pack?

Hey, Cordelia’s another C-name winner! (I mean. For now, at least.)

There will still be no Collins legacy or anything, but you’ll still hear from Missy and Cordelia again. (Not sure how at this point, but you will.)

...And that’s the end. (For the most part--there’s still an epilogue tomorrow, and this isn’t even the end of the queue.) Thank you again for your support.
