I disagree with the theory that William is the Secret of the Mimic protagonist only because I just can't imagine him wearing that

[reds-art-museum]

Now her name is Dollie, but I'm just saying were missing an Ella in the games. We've got book and movie, nothing in game, and the vibes are there even if the blues not one for one.

DCAs Connections in Help Wanted 2 Update! (FNAF Theory)

Hello! :) I'm gonna be rambling about the DCA and its connection to the past (before the franchise took form) based on what was shown on the mural that we saw on the old factory.

Again, this is gonna be a ramble (it's gonna be going all over the place, so I may or may not sense (lol)) and most importantly, this is purely speculation (so please take this with a grain of salt!) ^^

Note: This is the first time I'm writing a theory, so bear with me (lol) & feel free to type your thoughts in the comments or rbs below (for civil (and fun!) discussions as we theorize together! :)

So, inside the mural (looking at the upper half) there was the blue rabbit (we can safely assume that it's some form of bonnie) and the golden bear (golden freddy or fredbear, at this point, we don't know which is it or if its something else entirely) but, just above the two, we can see a Sun and Moon motifs on either sides of them.

The Sun motif is positioned on the right, while the Moon motif is positioned on the left. Which makes me (and all of us) wonder, how are the two connected to this blue rabbit and the golden bear ?

To bring up what other theorist have said, many have speculated about a traveling circus back in the day, and from the looks of the bottom half of the mural in hw2's update, it clearly shows that many theorists were in the right direction.

As for Sun and Moon though, many of the dca fans already knew they these were theater boys (or old stage performers) from the way they're dress (seeing as they're jesters, so they've been used for the theater) so, we could likely see them performing with the rabbit and the bear, or separately (maybe on their own stage). Perhaps one (the bear, alongside Sun) would perform during the day, the other (the rabbit alongside Moon) at night (or it could flipflop throughout depending on show/audience). Again, either or, they're somehow connected to both the rabbit and bear within the mural.

However, if you think about them in a symbolic way, Sun and Moon could potentially represent Afton and Henry respectively. Since the two would be working together during that time (in sotm).

So, hear me out. Moon in a way could represent Afton. And what's he commonly associated with? Rabbits. And throughout sb, Moon is under the influence of Vanny, so I found it kinda funny that with this update, Moon is the one who's associated with rabbits (heck, he was in Bonnie Bowl as well, which made me wonder why he was seen there out of all places when you (the player) face him in hw2).

Also in hw2, in the claw machine ending, there are two slight altered endings the player gets. The first one being with Moon and his usual white eye, black pupil, and the second being, once the player obtains the bonnie mask, that Moon's pupils turn red.

Why? Does he now know the player (or the one who we play as)? How does he know the player? What connection does he have to the player, from the moment the player gets the mask?

So, I'm guessing Steel Wool may have trying to establish this connection for a while now (about Moon and rabbits now that we see the hw2 update) but may have been overlooked. Idk, who knows?

As for Sun, he could represent Henry, if Henry is the one commonly associated with bears (I think, correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a while since I've been in the fnaf fandom). So, with Henry and Afton working together, it kind of parallels to Sun and Moon in a way. Light and dark, good and bad.

I don't know if Eclipse will show up in sotm (hopefully they do) but I'll put it anyway. Eclipse in a symbolic sense could represent Edwin, tying the two (Afton and Henry) together to build up their business, just how Eclipse keeps Sun and Moon together in order to function as a unit.

Anyway tl;dr - Sun and Moon (& Eclipse by extension) are very much ingrained with fnaf's past, we just have to put the pieces together to figure it out (like most theorists been doing i guess lol).

That's it! Just wanted to ramble. Again, take this with a grain of salt! :)

Jackie Jester

Animation I made of her using a voice test by Bravvyy_2 on Twitter (spent 4 hours on it, might finish later lol)

And a full body render of her

Model used in both by Miaoumastr on Twitter

[blood-and-pizza]

Pictures of Jackie the Jack-in-the-Box from thefnafnews' Instagram.

Interesting that she's a clown with red hair and green eyes, just like Circus Baby! I wouldn't be surprised if she was a predecessor to Baby (I know, Circus Baby's eyes are blue until she gets possessed, but still!).

Also, here are spoilers for The Secret of The Mimic demo, where players at Pax West 2024 got to meet Jackie for the first time (found on Twitter):

I am both intrigued and a little worried. A toy factory? That screams "Poppy Playtime" vibes to me. I mean, a toy factory makes sense for a jack-in-the-box animatronic, but... I don't know, man.

Poppy Playtime already borrows a lot of elements from FNAF. If The Secret of The Mimic ends up borrowing elements from Poppy Playtime in any capacity... it would be kinda like how Disney's Aladdin and The Thief and the Cobbler kept borrowing ideas from each other throughout their respective development processes. Does anyone understand what I mean by that?

I really hope the new game is nothing like Poppy and stands out entirely as its own thing...

Secret of the Mimic Bingo

For when it releases! Just based on what we now know, this is what I think will happen when the game comes out.
