I find attempted murder plots a lot more fun than actual murder plots unless said murder is the inciting incident for a mystery, honestly. Someone almost getting Murderized and then having to continually evade the person/make sure it doesn’t happen again/generally deal with the consequences of that are always fun
How does one just come back from almost getting murdered by someone who was once your friend? What do you even do at that point when you’re an animatronic who can’t even leave the building?
In the scenario proposed in previous ask, I don’t think Freddy would’ve expected to re-activate, and he’s probably not so dense as to be clueless on Why they tried to kill him.
I can imagine him like giving back the parts and apologizing once everyone’s back to themselves, but he might’ve thought that his friends were permanently Lost by the time he was accepting the parts/put together where the parts were coming from, especially if they’re going so much against their programming to try and hunt down and kill a child.
(Clarity: Not trying to say you’re writing him wrong or anything, just chiming in with how I see him)
(In reference to this ask and since this is might be something you wanna see @jellycreamjammedart)
Doesn't that make it worse? If he thought they were permanently gone, so much so they would try to kill a child, doesn't that make it worse that none of them could kill him? He looked at them and said they're beyond saving, he thought they would kill this kid no matter what in that state, and when given the chance, the shining moment when they could do the things accused of them, they couldn't do it.
The thing is, does he even know they're virus'd? Does he even know they're gonna kill Gregory? I think with some of their actions, it could be guessed they'd probably hurt him but why would he believe they'd kill? Does he trust them so little he'd jump to that conclusion once they start acting weird?
But this assumption that they'd kill Gregory... isn't it worse if he just assumed they're beyond saving? Yet for some reason, they can apparently save Vanessa? For some reason, he's totally fine? For some reason the only solution is to destroy them? Doesn't it make they fact they couldn't do it to him worse because he'd assumed they could? For assuming all of that and not considering they could be saved, surely if he understands his mistake it just makes everything worse?
Because if you think about it, if he was okay with them being destroyed... what makes him better than what he assumed of them? They couldn't kill him, and yet he was fine with the others possibly being killed. He helped them be destroyed, never sought an alternative solution that could have helped them and assumed they were long gone and beyond saving. Yet, even at their lowest points, even after they have more than enough reason and even after they had Freddy's life completely in their hands like he had theirs, they couldn't do it. They backed out. Or someone stopped them.
Isn't that worse? That they made the decisions they needed him to make? Someone stopped them, like he should have stopped Gregory or someone didn't have the heart to let him die, when he had the heart to let them be destroyed. I can't help but feel that's worse.
#pop rox answers#and yeah buddy I know you're not saying I'm writing him wrong or something#this is all purely discussion!#I don't think he deserves to die or that anyone would kill him but a few might come close maybe#you're so right almost being murdered is much more interesting than murdered especially in this context#fun fact! cause they're animatronics they're a lot harder to kill!#so you could deactivate them in your attempted murder sure#but if you don't destroy those chips? if you don't destroy their memory and their self?#what's stopping them from being reactivated again? what's stopping them from being found? what's stopping them from coming back?#with full knowledge of what you tried to do to them?#very hard to get away with the murder of an animatronic! especially if you're an animatronic and don't know where the chips are stored!#or you didn't know your hardwired programming would physically prevent you from finishing them!#and now the only way to keep them deactivated is to hide them without a trace!#but there's ALWAYS a chance they're gonna be found. there's always a chance the dead will start talking.#your programming has the same limits as everyone else. they can go everywhere you can go.#you may never rest easy again knowing it's only a matter of time...#I guess unless you're Roxy with the high security clearance but she couldn't do it anyway#the doggo has seen too much death to ever cause it herself...#intentionally anyway.#might be really fucking tempted though#anyway!!! yeah!!! that's that!!!#fun!!!#murder is such an interesting topic cause how much would it take to push them to do it? how far can they go without backing out?#how does an animatronic commit an impossible murder?#fun stuff!!
