Now I'm just thinking what glamrock Freddy's reaction to the underground scooper would be, maybe he would see it, and stumble back. Maybe he'd quickly check his stomach hatch. He doesn't know why he did it. Maybe he'd glance over at the scooping room window in a quick pang of horror. Maybe he didn't know what he was looking for in the glass. But maybe the feeling occurs to him that he's been in this kind of situation before. Surprisingly, Freddy has a thought that the outcome of this weird dejavu is the same as it always was.

He is full of many, many, wires.

This time, he thinks, they aren't going anywhere.

Ight Mikevictim au is a go. Thanks to @ars3n1ck (lmk if you dont want me pinging you in the future) for giving me the confidence to actually post this lmao

It's June 21th, 1983, and 8 year old Michael Afton has only 5 days until his amazing epic birthday party at Fredbear's Family Diner. His father has been setting up his party, so he's been incredibly busy. Michael's brother uses this as an opportunity to bully the absolute shit out of him, and it culminates with him shoving his younger brother into Fredbear's mouth during his party and nearly killing him.

The poor birthday boy is rushed to the hospital immediately. Ambulances take him, his brother, and William to the hospital. William doesn't even acknowledge that his older child is in the room with him even after they get to the hospital. He's way too focused on Michael to care.

Michael's been in a coma since the bite, and it takes months of him being watched by medical staff (and William) until he finally wakes up.

He isn't immediately allowed home, he still has lots of recovery to do. He's finally dispatched from the hospital on March 12th, 1984, and he notices a distinct lack of his older brother when he and William arrive home. William brushes it off, explains that he went to summer camp. Michael realizes as soon as he realizes what day/year it actually is that it isn't even summer yet, he tries to question William more but can't get the words out right. He ends up crying because honestly dude who wouldn't he was in a coma for 9 months and now everything is wrong💀 Entire ass family member just missing when he gets back yeah man I'd be sobbing too.

I honestly don't have it as fleshed out from there. Foxybro is living alone, he got kicked out by William sometime during Mike's coma, and I like to think he tries desperately to get custody of his little brother the second he turns 18. He does not want him around William anymore after he realizes what he did😭😭

MCI happens a couple months after Mike gets home, it happens on his birthday bc I love giving him trauma and also bc I like to think William saw those masked bully kids (minus Foxybro) when working his shift at the diner and something in him just snapped.

William doesn't end up killing any of the bullies, he can't take on multiple teenagers, so instead he ends up killing some random kid after they get conveniently locked outside when Will's on his smoke break. I can't decide if this is Charlie or not, but either way, they go on to possess the puppet.

This is William's first taste of killing, and oh my god, does he go crazy stupid from the adrenaline rush. Ends up leading a kid to their death that same night after he gets back in the Spring Bonnie suit. Stuffs 'em in Chica.

I don't have the dates for the other 3 missing kids planned out yet, but William pulls the same Spring Bonnie saferoom lure trick on them, too.

Eventually Foxybro finds out what happened and puts everything together bc he knows his dad only let's himself wear Spring Bonnie. This is when he actually starts trying to get custody of Mike. God forbid his own little brother ends up being the next missing kid.

3 dead kids later and he manages to get temporary custody of him because William gets jailed. Just as the two of them are settling into things William gets released because of a lack of evidence.

Skip forward idk how long and William's taking Michael out of Hurricane. He already was so close to being found out, it doesn't help that Foxybro actually knows he did it, so one night he tells Mike to grab his stuff and they flee the town right then and there. They're on the road for a while. They bounce from place to place and don't stay in one area for too long (mainly bc William can't help himself and eventually kills someone in like every place they stop at💀). Michael only really had time to bring one of his plush friends, so he brings his Fredbear plush (I call it Friendbear so I don't confuse it with the actual robot lmfao) with him. William puts a walkie-talkie in it so he can spy on his son when he's away killing people ,and* so he can talk to him while he's away. Mike doesn't know it's his dad. He just thinks it's Friendbear talking more than usual.

Then I really don't have it planned out from there, like at all in the slightest. But yeah, that's uh 'bout it so far.

Also, yeah, I don't have a name for Foxybro if it wasn't painfully obvious enough lmfao. Might stick the whole "no one knows this kids name" thing that cannon bite victim has going on with him orrrrrr I might cook up a fitting name later. I don't have names for the missing kids either, tbh and I have no idea how to fit any of the games other than 4 into this properly, lol. Maybe Foxybro works at places? Would definitely not be using the Mike Schmidt name, though lmfao I'm not pulling a Scott here, no double names💀 Maybe he's taking all the minimum wage night jobs so he can save up for court fees? I have no idea how Sister Location would fit into this. Also ngl I'm very tempted to say William doesn't even own Fredbears or any Freddy's joint for that matter in the au because the idea of the killer just being some guy scares me personally way more then "ohhhh evil owner uses his business to kill kids ahh", lol. Might not even keep any of the Afton family's names, honestly, because this au started way, way, way before Will himself even had a name, and I know I had some stupid ass name made up for the killer so I could just reuse that.

Screw continuing the timeline into the future or expanding on the start of the franchise, I want Steel Wool to elaborate on what happened between FNaF 1 & 3.

We have a 23 – 30 year gap where we have NO IDEA what happens. Fazbear still exists and is doing alright; Pizza Sim & everything after doesn't function without that being true, as Henry dissolves the company, but it was still profitable for someone to bring it back.

Serously, what was happening with Freddy's between 1993/1992 and 2015/2017/2023? (We don't even know how long the time period is. We have been given nothing)

SL might be in that time period, but it's not like we have any confirmation on that. And SL is the only thing we even have the possibility of existing.

I don't want anything big, just a line somewhere mentioning what the company is doing. Even something like "Fazbear started franchising in 20XX, and a few new locations opened up — most closed in a few years. Rarely you hear rumors of nightguards disappearing, but no one believes any of them"

Boom! Now we got SOMETHING. Nightguards kept dying, and Fazbear kept making enough money to exist, but not a whole lot. We even have a reason why Fazbear Fright opened — Fazbear Entertainment was trying to dispel rumors about the nightguard position being dangerous/exploit those rumors for money (and a reason for the FNaF 3 nightguard to be part of the attraction)

Optimally, we would get more than that — I know a lot of us would LOVE to know what Henry was up to in those 23 – 30 years, or even a mention of Mike's existence beyond 1 monolog — but anything is better than the complete silence we have now.

Please, Steelwool, although the beginning and the future of Freddy's are fascinating, there's a massive gap in the middle of the timeline that we know NOTHING about.

well then... since y'guys wanted it... >:D

basically before HW2 ruins it I had this idea that since Helpi is currently uuuuuh malfunctioning as of RUIN... that the devs are like oh shit we need a new helper. So they base one on some old employee files and other records they find.

so ofc its michael. (but it doesnt know its based off michael shhh)

sorry abt the old art from august </3

is he evil? is he actually going to be helpful??? :3c eeeheheh

LOOK. Sister location is HIS game. If there is no michael then WHAT IS THE POINT.

(Pizza sim as well but i made these before we got the updated information OKAYYYY)

bonus bit

PS. designs are likely to change(ESP MICHAEL!!), but this is pretty much what i felt like i should share before HW2 comes out tomorrow LOL.

They can talk, in death. Evan has questions. He wants to understand; he needs to know the whole story in order to process and heal. He needs to know why Mike was the way that he was to understand that it wasn't Evan's fault; and he wants to know what happened after he died, what it was like.

Michael wants to answer him. He wants to help; he's obligated to help, after everything he's done to Evan. He prepares his story, opens his mouth to speak...

And nothing comes out.

In which Michael threw himself to the wayside when he decided to save them, so much so that he isn't ready to talk about his own trauma after he dies.

[quillsinkwell]

@castaccio you make a good point! I'll admit, I did kinda narrow down on the conflict and your input did make me think a bit more!

Sure, his conflict and need to stop his father aren't the only thing that defines him, but the other aspects of his life are as fairly tragic.

His need to save the children, who tried to kill him + were killed by his father

His want to mend his relationship with his siblings, which one of them being extremely loyal to his father and scooping out his organs and the other who was also trying to kill him alongside the missing children.

And his regret about the Bite, which defines a fair bit of him.

It's just- SO much, if not all of his life is defined by tragedy and atonement and it's incredibly fascinating. All of his personality and character is defined by the tragedies his father caused that it's all he's remembered for.

It's kinda poetic. So much of his life was a mess of tragedy and atonement that there wasn't any time for it to be anything else.

That's another potential reason we don't have much of his personality outside of the animatronics or his father.

He didn't let himself be defined outside of anything else.

Maybe atonement.

Maybe punishment.

Or maybe there simply wasn't TIME for being just himself.

Not while his father's victims were still hurting.

Not when HIS victim was still hurting.

[triple-pupil]

Headcanon: Michael hates his physical appereance, as he looked too much like his father. So the "zombification" had it's good things in his eyes, even if it didn't make a complete change. Still, when he doesn't hate his body and face for looking like his father anymore, now he hates it because he literally looks like a zombie for a good while.

There's no relief for the kid.

"Well"

"It does not look half as bad"

[trashno0dle]

ahem. mini fic time

summary: the party had been for him. the prank had been for him. he had meant to die, that much he knew [or, evan afton recalls the events that led to his brothers death]

snippet under the cut !!!

He should have died that day.

After a while Evan started to realise that part of him in fact, had. The hollow pit in his stomach had grown with each passing day since, the guilt clawed at his heart until it ached, the cold gripped his mind and never quite let him go. For a while, he was never entirely sure why he could feel such guilt over something that wasn’t his fault. Later he would place that feeling to be survivor's guilt, and that too, only increased with each moment that passed.

The party had been for him. The prank had been for him. He had meant to die, that much he knew.

He remembered the day as clearly as it had been ten years ago. The details were not vague nor were they fuzzy despite them being the memories of a child from an entire decade ago. No, they were sharp, magnified even, somehow the experience through dreams felt just as real as it had back then if not more so. He remembered every single little thing just as it had been, right down to every noise, sensation and every droplet of blood.

As soon as his eyes slipped shut he finds himself ten years old again, surrounded by blaring lights and a sea of people whose faces he'd long forgotten. All except four. He's being held back against his will, as much as he thrashes and turns he can't get himself free from their icy grip. He feels so small, so weak. He hates it. There's no point in trying to wake up, he's forced to let the dream, the memory run its course. It always happens the very same way each time and yet he's completely immobilised and unable to stop it. 

No matter what he does he can't save him.

I am trying to draw a two pages FNaF Sister's Location fancomic, where color has a symbolism. However I am stuck so :

Explanation about the symbolism I had in mind in the tags.

[serial-serializednovelreader]

@aspirationatwork I know you asked for this image description like months ago, but I wanted to add one in since I don’t believe anyone did!

[Image Description: The top GIF is a scene from the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie (2023). Medium close up of William Afton (played by Matthew Lillard) in a bunny animatronic suit with glowing white eyes. He tilts a knife in his right hand toward his left hand. He then wipes off the knife in an aggressive, jerky motion using his forefinger and thumb.

The bottom GIF is a scene from Scream (1996). Medium close up of Stu (played by Matthew Lillard) in his Ghostface costume, which consists of a black robe and white elongated mask. He holds a knife sideways in front of his face while using his left hand to wipe the blood off of it in a slow, deliberate motion. He puts the knife down and begins walking towards the camera. End image description.]

matthew lillard doing the iconic ghostface knife wipe like that HAD to be intentional
