freddi....

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

no, i'm not going to explain any further...

The silly guys!

[coolerfox]

I was playing AAI2 and was struck with the sudden idea to look up the french version of some of the characters’ names and omg i need to talk about them. I found some of them to be really funny/interesting! this is going to be a long post sorry.

In case you didn’t know Miles Edgeworth is called "Benjamin Hunter" which is…definitely a choice? yeah not too fond of this one ngl

Our beloved Dick Gumshoe is called "Dick Tektiv"! Which might be my favorite “pun name” ever in the french version. i love it sm

Kay Faraday is called “Cléa Faradet", pretty similar and goes with the same idea as the english one.

Next is my boy Sebastian Debeste (Eustace Winner). Now this one i find hilarious for some reason bc in french he’s called “EUSTACHE VICTOR” (don’t pay attention to the screencap in game he’s called eustache).

Next one is Verity Gavèlle and her french name is “Justine Delcour”. This one is pretty interesting bc the french version actually resembles the fan translation “Justine Courtney”. Idk why the french localization decided to go with this version since apparently in the french fan translation her name was “Justine Egal” = Justine Equal

Eddie Fender (Raymond Shields) in french is called “Freddie Lapointe” literally it translates to “Freddie TheAce” which yk. fits. i guess. since he keeps calling himself an ace attorney

And finally, we get for Gregory Edgeworth “Henri Hunter” and to me this fits his character so well ?? yeah that man is called Henri Hunter.

Posting this here because I just know there's something to this, but I have neither the sanity nor the patience to try to dig into it as a full theory myself: For all the talk of murders, possessions, and everything else in the FNAF franchise, has anyone else noticed that there's a heavily repeated theme of stolen/mistaken identity that keeps coming up? I'm just going to create a list:

In order to commit the original murders in the first place, William disguised himself in the Spring Bonnie suit.

Michael is mistaken for William by Circus Baby and the other animatronics in "Sister Location."

Circus Baby and the other animatronics then steal Michael's skin to parade as him in order to hide as regular people. (In hindsight, if the illusion discs are a thing by that point in the story as some theorize, then what was the point of needing a skinsuit...?)

In "Pizzaria Simulator," Baby was tricked into entering Henry's trap partly because she believed William called her there.

In "Into the Pit," Springtrap takes over as Oswald's dad.

In "To Be Beautiful," Baby/Eleanor steals Sarah's identity.

In The Fourth Closet Series, Baby pretends to be Charlie.

In "Lonely Freddy," the Lonely Freddy toys have been swapping bodies with and taking over the identities of various children.

In "He Told Me Everything" and "The Puppet Carver," Faz-Goo creates clones that sap the life force and steal the identities of its victims.

In "Friendly Face," we have Fazbear Entertainment using animal DNA combined with animatronics to recreate pets, which results in the Jack/Faraday abomination.

We have an animatronic literally called the Mimic who pretends to be Gregory in the Ruin DLC.

The multiple cases of possessions involving the living such as with Glitchtrap's control can even count, as the consciousness of the original people were lost/sealed away.

Even on a meta-level, identities are mixed up and hard to distinguish in the fandom--like Princess Quest's Cassidy/Vanessa debacle, questions about the relationship of Patients 46 and 71, and the various names that fit for characters with similar/matching stories between the books and games,

Anyway you can still Ask About these Characters, just to Characters that are Alive and such

[scooped-eggs-benedict]

If Vanny's suit has the hallucination discs from The Twisted Ones that might explain why Gregory could only see her when he’s in the charging pod. It could be acting as a faraday cage and disrupting the signal from the discs.

Freddy can't see her until he gets Roxy's eyes because the discs emit a signal at frequencies that he might not be attuned to but it doesn't matter if you have eyes that can see what others can't.

A friend posted this and said it was OK to share the text but no attribution, so these words are not mine.

"READ EVERY SINGLE WORD:

—If you are livestreaming a protest, and you are recording yourself, or taking selfies, instead of documenting information: you are not an ally. You are a tourist.

—Cover your face. Cover your hair. Cover your tattoos. Wouldn’t want to have any surfaces exposed that could get coronavirus.

—Protect your identity. Obscure your face. There are bad actors on the internet that would love to identify you and track you down for participating in a peaceful protest. Want to feel paranoid? Read about the mysterious deaths of identified Ferguson protestors years later. If you are in the privileged majority, this might be your first time realizing that there are violent people out there who want to hunt you down and harm you for existing. Imagine how POC feel.

—Unless your phone is inside a faraday cage, or you have removed the battery, it can be tracked. Yes, even in airplane mode.

—Assume all information transmitted from your phone is being intercepted by the police at the protest. Including your livestream. Oakland once had one of the largest inventories of Stingray devices (communciations intercept towers) in the US. They used them extensively against Occupy.

—Friendly reminder, your license plate is being scanned and tracked most places you drive.

—Disable your fingerprint or facescan unlock. While it is theoretically true that a search warrant is required to search your phone, it is also theoretically illegal for the police to murder an unarmed and nonviolent citizen. Use a six digit or more passcode.

—Backups to the cloud. Things tend to get broken at protests.

—Do not publicly display your teargas neutralizing spray, or peperspray neutralizing spray. You might be targeted. Keep it discrete and ready for use.

—Document any people showing up in Hawaiian shirts. Document anyone suspected of being undercover cops. Document agent provocateurs. Document bad actors showing up just to destroy property.

—If you have an Iphone, learn how to use your emergency sos. You can set your Emergency SOS to notify your family you might be being arrested or kidnapped (if it is safe for you to activate this feature). You can also disable the call 911 feature in Emergency SOS. Activating this feature also locks your phone against anything but a passcode unlock. If your phone is also encrypted, it is very hard for someone to illegally break into your phone.

—Write your emergency contact on your body in sharpie, somewhere both out of view and where it will not sweat off. Or memorize it. You will not have access to your cellphone if you are arrested (whether wrongfully or not).

—Be careful, all kinds of bad actors can use a peaceful protest as an excuse for violence. Hot hands gloves, or Nomex flight gloves, can be used to pick up hot objects on the ground, if you need to throw a teargas grenade away from you.

—Highpowered lasers, not usually the pocket kind, can destroy the sensors on cameras. Be careful with your cameras out there.

—If your goggles have vents, they are vulnerable to teargas and pepperspray.

—Be careful, all kinds of bad actors can use a peaceful protest as an excuse for violence. A set of allen keys can sometimes unlock crowd control gates.

—Remember that Neonazis have driven cars into peaceful protests in the past. There is finally a use for all those lyft/lime/uber bikes and scooters. Bring them to the protest and use them to as roadblocks if necessary to prevent cars from driving into protestors or chasing them.

—Umbrellas can be useful in preventing bad actors from hitting you with some projectiles during an otherwise peaceful protest. They also help protect identity.

—If you are a white ally: listen. Don’t make the protests about you. There are already literal Nazis doing that.

—Be careful, all kinds of bad actors can use a peaceful protest as an excuse for violence. It has already been noted on multiple organizing boards for white supremacist groups that a protest they’ve whipped into a riot is the perfect place to murder someone with impunity, and even kidnap people. Read up on how to escape from zipties. Bring medical shears or small snips to cut them.

—If you are arrested, identify yourself. Have your ID. Do your best to show the officer that you are peaceful and not resisting arrest. Say nothing else at all without a lawyer present, unless it is to request your phone call. Assume anything said, including on phone call, is being documented and could be aggressively used against you. Innocent people can still go to jail.

—Be careful, all kinds of bad actors can use a peaceful protest as an excuse for violence. Assume you might get shot with a rubber bullet/sandbag. Wear protective gear so you can protest in peace. Being misidentified as a violent/illegal protestor by an officer could also mean being hit by a baton, which could break your bones. Protests can quickly turn chaotic, and often the official response to a peaceful protest can be indiscriminate in who gets injured. Don’t forget that photo of a 12 year old that was peppersprayed for being at a protest.

—Recognize that there are complex factors at play. Not everyone at the protest has the same agenda. Some are not peaceful. The Attorney General of the US noted yesterday that outside provacateurs are infiltrating peaceful protests to accelerate outside agendas unrelated to protesting in solidarity with Black Lives Matter/George Floyd/Police Brutality. The Mayor of Minneapolis noted many* violent protestors arrested were from out of state, and some had ties to white supremacist groups. Not all protestors are looters. Not all looters are protesting anything.

—If you are a white ally that acknowledges your privilege and wants to use that to support the protestors, go to the front of the protest. If you can tolerate having your identity known and you can be a peaceful human shield, do it. Just don’t steal the scene. Let the other POC speak. Leave your megaphone and microphone with someone else while you shield them.

—If you are a white ally in your comfortable home, stop deleting anyone that disagrees with you. Stop feeding the divisive algorithms that have helped shape this discourse into a hateful thing. Right now, you can be putting in the work talking to people and helping them understand that “All Lives Matter” is a way to avoid talking about Black Lives Matter. Don’t be combative. Listen. Ask Questions. Talk. Your POC friends don’t need to spend all their time educating—a huge part of our role as white allies is helping our other white circles understand and grow.

—Yes, all lives do matter. The problem is that some are treated like they matter less. And they are disproportionately affected by police violence in the United States. When you shout “All Lives Matter” in response to “Black Lives Matter,” all that is happening is you are silencing people trying to speak up about disproportionate treatment and unequal rights. If you are sharing that favtoid about how many white versus black lives are taken by police, without adjusting for population, you are ignorant of statistics and being willfully manipulative at worst. Do you really believe that all lives are treated and regarded equally?

—Silence is how this grew. Colorblindness is how this grew. Ignoring this is privilege. The status quo is broken. Racism is alive and well. Silence is violence.

—Your political affiliation does not matter in proving you aren’t racist. Living in a diverse and liberal area does not matter. Knowing a POC in your personal life proves nothing. Quoting one convenient MLK quote does not matter. Only being actively anti-racist matters.

—Human lives will always be worth more than property. Stop changing the subject. There will be an appropriate time to rebuild.

—Violence at a protest does not invalidate the point of the protest, even one intended to he peaceful. Focusing on violence is just a way to ignore the meaning of the protest. Stop changing the subject.

If you want to share this, copy and paste it without attribution. This is not about any one person. Not even George Floyd. It is a chain in which George Floyd is the one of the latest links. Like Alton Sterling. Like Sandra Bland. Like Michael Brown. Like Freddie Gray. The list is staggering. And every single one of those names on the list was a person who could still be with us today."
