Hey there friends!!

Welcome to the SpringTrap and Deliah Rebooted tumblr!! This is where I’ll be posting my rewritten version of GraWolfQuinn’s SpringTrap and Deliah :]

(*Not at all affiliated with the other SaD rewritten blog I’ve seen on here; I do not know them or what they have planned for their rewriting but I wish them luck and look forward to see what they have in store ^^)

This comic is being made purely for fun and is currently in the process of being written :]

Thankfully, I already have a lot thought of and done and suspect I shall be able to move onto concept art and paneling very soon!

Another small disclaimer: this rewriting is quite different from the original. I expect it will be longer and with new characters too,, so all I ask is for kindness and to be understanding that quite a bit will be different!!

Now that all of that’s out of the way, I hope you’ll enjoy what I’ve come up with and will stick by to see what I have in store.

Thank you!! :]

Just a little fun meme post that further explains my gripes with the original comic’s Springtrap. One thing I will comment on is the mention of the “Bad Choice routes”. Briefly, these are hypothetical decisions a reader would make that would lead to either a premature death, negative consequences, or a keen choice that aids in Delilah’s survival. More to be explained fully in the future.

For now, it turns out my gut feeling of Roger Stanford being a real person was hilariously correct.

This is amazing, definitely going to follow this project closely

I and my boyfriend are making a new version of Springtrap and Deliah. We are doing this, I am literally working on it as we speak.

We're revising the main two characters mostly, but VERY heavy on fixing William, as well as Springtrap's uncomfortable dynamic with Deliah in general. The plan is to give Springtrap an ACTUAL redemption arc, fix some of the major weirdness and ways he acts towards Deliah, and make him less "creepy pred" in general.

We plan to take a different approach to "William Afton was just upset he couldn't get a family" that re-introduces his FNAF canon children, as well as possibly Clara, and to do some redesigning and recharacterization to fix the souls.

This is partially influenced by the current outing of Quinn's past behaviour, but NOT meant to be a direct attack to them, nor their fan base, if such a thing remains. It is simply due to the fact that I personally was affected by this comic.

I first read it at a young age. Springtrap's treatment of Deliah, a child near my age, influenced how I viewed those close to me. It made me complacent in an abusive relationship with someone very similar to him.

Despite this, I and many others have fond memories of this comic, and the fanworks that followed it. I'd like to remake it for the newer generations of fnaf fans, whom I adore very much, and fix the messaging to hopefully teach younger fans that his behaviour is not normal or okay, or to be justified because "he is struggling too."

Anyways. Feel free to follow if you'd like to see this. Work starts now. :]

Kind of a Vent?

TW: Mentions of Pedophilia

Ok

@takaio-sdr 's Springtrap and Deliah Rebuild.

It seems like a great au, and remake in general. Like a more canonic approach to the original series

But i have to say, its just not my vibe.

Im actually crying right now.

Im going to make my own rewrite, because this one portrays Springtrap as JUST a heartless killer. And that's fine. But what attracted me to the original comic was the fact Springtrap WASNT heartless. Which i have to say, is pretty bad considering the original pedophilic subtext.

But something just. Attracts me to it? The concept of Springtrap not being just a heartless monster.

But anyways, i just needed to vent, please see their au, it actually looks really nice

This is from one of my Ocs from a book series I finished this year (called Dragon Spirits). It involves FNAF and HTTYD. The first design is for the 1st book, while the bunny design is from the end of book 1 to 2. Dragon Spirits Bk 1 (if it works): https://www.wattpad.com/story/198224888-dragon-spirits Sorry I haven't done a description yet (i really need to do one…) It kinda involves another FNAF Au called Springtrap and Deliah from AberrantPaint (formerly GraWolfQuinn) (on Deviantart) since I love it and they (and my bestie's) were the main reason why I joined the FNAF Fandom in the first place (and their au is f*cking awesome i'm so sorry if you see this. I might rewrite it in the future and take out Springtrap and Deliah). i respect all decisions they make and I won't harass them And ye Cottontail is just an old Springbonnie suit.

[mechanicalinfection]

All brand new

[snickerzsblog]

I just came back to this post. I do agree that the comic is a whole lot darker looking back at it, but that's kinda the point. Even though Springtrap is portrayed as a more sympathetic character in this comic, he's still shown to be a very twisted man who isn't in the right at all. Both of the endings give Springtrap consequences to his behavior. He's not excused for anything he does to Deliah and her family at all throughout the story.

Your point is valid regardless, and it would be great if you rewrite the comic, I just wanted to share my opinion on the darker stuff in Springtrap and Deliah. I hope this hasn't offended you.

You are a veteran fnaf fan if you recgonize this comic panel.

Reblog/tag if you do.

“Springtrap” is the name of an abandoned Animatronic found within a Safe Room in Fazbear’s Fright. The suit radiated a foul odor, which is contributed to the supposedly fake corpse resting inside of it, fermenting until the attraction opens. …That is, before Delz and Harris stole him. Matt, Harris’ older brother, is a fur suit builder (and furry). Using his experience, he was able to clean up and fix Springtrap, to which the possessed suit would take up the name “Mr.Bonnie”.

Bonnie says he was once a worker at Fazbear’s, before a catastrophic springlock failure crushed him inside, leading to the spring costumes to be decommissioned (staying true to the FNAF 3 tapes.) However, it’s likely a script programmed into the suit to scare people, after all he did come from a Horror Attraction. He would later be sent home with Delilah as a “birthday gift”, where he would take the form of a costume display while Nick is home, and a new companion to play Hide and Seek with while he was away at work.

——— Springtrap in this rework is the main antagonist, and does not have a redemption arc. Him being a sweetheart to Delilah is all a manipulative act of superficial charm to rope her into his arms in order to kill again. He’s also William Afton this time just for simplicity’s sake. Speaking of Hide and Seek, it seems he’s incredibly observant of Delz movements and typical hiding places in the house, always …thinking. Looking for an opportunity to strike; He also practices his plan of attack when Delilah is out with Harris.

”It is not your flesh that sustains me, it is your fear.” CW | GORE, BLOOD, AND DISTURBING IMAGERY

One of the most underutilized aspects of Springtrap and Deliah, are the nightmares brought upon Deliah and Nick through the child spirits. My main gripe with the spirits is how they mostly exist to belittle Springtrap for being a serial killer (rightfully so) in order to make the audience feel bad for him. This, will soon change. First, however, I intend to give Nightmare Springtrap a new form. Detailed below are notes for both the original design by GraWolfQuinn, and the sketch for my redesign that provides more insight to my creative decisions.

The original design for this form was quite lacking in my opinion, as it made minimal changes to the existing Springtrap design. The tentacles in particular were a strange decision, as Springtrap himself doesn’t really call for it, that and given his constant run-ins with fire. However, I will give props and say that I really liked the detail of the springlock failure blood stains being present on the suit, it was a clever detail to include. I understand Quinn was a minor at the time, and I’ve been there at making not-so-stellar designs at that age too.

In my redesign, I took inspiration from my own childhood fears of a grandpa I had who was quite tall, and me being terrified of his towering height. I seriously think Fnaf 3 was criminally underutilized in this comic, so I gave my redesign more of the withered features shared with the OG Springtrap. I was also inspired by the one panel with Purple Guy inside of Springtrap during Deliah’s nightmare for this design, as Afton and his creation are now one of the same.

I usually never go this hard on line art, but this design warranted it. A major emphasis of this design is the usage of darkness. I love playing with black and white, and obscuring his figure with shadow really benefits the horror of not fully knowing what’s there. Additionally, I took some notes from Scraptrap and added some more skeletal features enfused with bones and mangles of what flesh remains, or at least, what Delilah can memorize.

I am extremely happy with how this design turned out, and the chromatic zooming effect really enhances the overall look!

Delz/Delilah is a tomboy who lives a couple blocks down from Fazbear’s Fright. Shy of becoming a teenager, she and her friend Harris have begun to turn into quite the troublemakers. Delz is big into rock bands, and is hitting an emo phase as a result. Notably, she’s been struggling mentally with the sudden divorce of her mother, which lead to her living with her dad who tries his best to comfort his child, even if she pushes him away like any other near-teen would. Her shaky status with her father would only be further thrown into jeopardy with the friendship she secretly forms with Mr. Bonnie, only further dividing the two apart as he weaves his way into Delilah’s heart, gaining her trust with bad intentions behind them… She’s a rather nosy girl, always asking Mr. Bonnie about his tightly guarded secrets, trying to pry more and more out of his mysterious past as she’s left with more questions than answers. Instead of being suspicious about him, she sees this as an interesting allure to his character; Fazbear’s Fright really must know what they’re doing, huh? ——— I wanted Delz to be more of an angsty kid, I saw the rock posters in her room during the original comic and I thought it would be a fun idea to play with! Springtrap being really Co-Dependent on her in the comic was …really weird. Seeing how much she was gaslit too is what really inspired me to make Springtrap more of a villain, as kids are both quite impressionable, and often miss red flags.

Bonnie JR (aka Junior) is a miniature plushy who was given to Mr. Bonnie as a present from Delz. While everyone else slept in the middle of the night, he would slip out of Delilah’s room (utilizing his suit’s quiet walk) and build an DIY endoskeleton in the basement, ultimately stuffing it inside of Junior. This gave the unassuming plushie new life, always finding places to crawl into that were never out of range of watching Delz, which she presumed was an Elf on the shelf-type prank Mr. Bonnie was playing on her. Junior is built with a few notable features. He is equip with a locking jaw that can clamp down on limbs, he has a vocal device that produces an audio lure that alerts Mr. Bonnie to Junior’s location, and is padded in his feet to quite walk like his creator. …Question is, what are these charges for professional grade equipment on Nick’s credit card? ———— With the change of Purple guy to William Afton, I wanted to find a way to showcase his twisted engineering talents that would aide him in his scheme. I was largely inspired by this video and thought it would be a fun way to give Afton a sidekick that also acts as a lil fun gremlin character on the side.

[a-deceptive-calling]

Harris, short for Harrison, is a local gamer with a YouTube channel where he uploads videos of his montages. He lives across the street from Delz, and the two have been close friends since childhood, often collaborating for their social media accounts; Delz runs a horror blog online. With Halloween around the corner, and Fazbear’s Fright recently announcing their arrival in town, the pair’s focus has been directed to the mysterious rumors surrounding the infamous Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. Although, his interest surrounds the old arcade cabinets inside of the establishment which leads him and Delz to unearth mysterious games hidden within the confines of this moldy building’s walls… (This leads them to freeing the tormented spirits, later) Upon discovering Springtrap, he began to notice the unhealthy grip he had over Delz, only tightening overtime which would lead to their relationship souring between the two kids, Delilah thinking Harris was jealous that Mr. Bonnie decided to stick with her instead of him. Despite being pushed away, he is far from giving up, and wants to reveal Springtrap’s false truths. ——— Having the spirits of the dead children present in the original, I wanted there to be a stronger connection to FNAF 3. I plan to go into deeper detail in a separate post, but I feel like Harris being a gamer in this context would be a clever way to tie things together for what I have planned. To add, I wanted Harris and Delz’ relationship to be more tightly woven ahead of time. While I like their friendship in the original telling, Harry being so insightful despite JUST meeting Springtrap felt off to me. Don’t be afraid to give characters more time to bond together!

“I knew it was a lie, the moment I heard it.”

A Deceptive Calling | Introduction Prepare to scare your socks off at Fazbear’s Fright! A newly opened horror attraction that reintroduces ages old relics and beloved childhood memories at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza in the most nightmarish way, surrounding the (unfounded) rumors that casts a dark shadow over this once joyful establishment. In fact, perhaps there’s something far more sinister lurking beneath the surface. Enter our main troubled teens: Harris and Delz, who wish to get a sneak peak of what horrors are to come this Halloween, finding more than which they bargained for behind a sealed safe room off the sight of the building’s cameras. They found one. A real one. However, they remain blissfully unaware of what terrors are stored within the smelly animatronic they just found. A shocking and disturbing tale awaits those who dare to listen to the sweet whispers of false truths, and learn more of Fazbear’s truly sinister past.

This is really weird to ask but did you hear about the springtrap and Delilah controversy?

oh, yes. surprised that im only having asks about this but i have heard about it. safe to say im disappointed, disgusted and grossed out something that i used to enjoy as a child actually a deeper twisted and sickening fantasy tied to it. i am no longer in support of the creator and the comic, as much as im in denial i have seen the doc and have made my decision to stop supporting it entirely.

as for aus and my aus of springtrap and deliah, they are no longer tied and attached to that source. i will only be in support of aus of it and making fanart and artwork based off of the aus instead, not the original material (especially as long as the maker of the au also disowns the comic and no longer supports the creator), i hope that makes sense. im planning on actually rewriting and remaking the comic entirely if im allowed to, as i need to make sure and double check that its okay to do so, as i dont want to be disrespectful about it by doing something stupid like that.

artworks of my aus that are based off from that comic will be postponed for now until i decide what to do with it. thank you :]
