#why does he need this stupid ass robot so bad? i know he got a connection to him but like. it just tried to kill him AGAIN.

[yanderefarm]

I NEED. another part of that achilles x sadistic make reader thing PLEASEEEE

cw;; nsft language, misunderstandings, hurt/comfort, suffocation

ok i wanna write this idea i had so im putting it here bc im attaching the actual part 2 to another ask.

this was supposed to be filthy femboy achilles sending you sexy videos. it got away from me bad.

your lovely partner is a hard worker even with his proclivity for perversion he very rarely ignores work to get off. usually you two maintain a healthy balance, work and play and on weekends you get him for the more extreme play, but he's out of town. his father needed him to go take care of somethings in another city a plane ride away leaving you without your lovely boyfriend's company for the time being.

the first few days coming home without him being there was strange. it was strange to not have him on his knees at your feet, or curled up in your arms, or tied to your metal slab. you hadn't even realized how much your life had become entangled with his until he was gone. you still texted him every day but you were really starting to get lonely. i mean... his texts leave something to be desired.

'good morning.'

'good night'

'i had an avocado and banana smoothie for breakfast.'

'im working'

'please don't call me at this time.'

it's bad enough that in person he looks like a lifeless robot sometimes, why does he text like one too? you could get more emotion from an alexa. you've been trying to be understanding because you know he's just that kind of person but it didn't help your loneliness. you were trying to call him at night before he went to bed just to hear his voice.

'please don't call me at this time.'

that message was really starting to piss you off. you couldn't be nice anymore.

'answer your fucking phone or im going to bleed you.'

it took a few minutes, about 10 to be exact, for your phone to ring. you immediately picked it up about to scold him for his lack of communication when you heard his harsh breathing on the other side. you could recognize it as how he usually sounded after something intense.

"chilles? are you ok?" your brow furrowed in worry.

"m okay" his words slurred slightly which usually meant he was fucked out.

"... you wanna try again? maybe this time tell me what bitch you're fucking?" your eye twitched in anger.

"m not-"

"im not stupid. you've been barely talking to me this whole week, you won't answer my calls, and now you sound like you just got your ass pounded. so you wanna try again? one more chance before i start sharpening my knife."

you heard him struggle to take a breath before finally letting out a pathetic little whimper. "m sorry, sir."

you let out a heavy sigh and ran a hand through your hair, gripping a handful of it as your anger became overwhelming. here you were being lonely and worried and missing him! and this stupid whore was out in another city running around with some bitch.

".... so. is this another attempt to get your throat slit or do you just.. not... care?" fuck you hated how your voice started to crack at the end.

"i.. i would gladly accept your punishment. i tried to resist for as long as I could."

"you fuckin-! yeah! you poor thing must have been so fucking hard for you to resist that!" you were messing up your hair as you rubbed at your head like you were trying to scrub him from your mind.

"im sorry sir. i know im a disappointment."

"disappointment?! that doesn't even begin to describe it!"

"im... im sorry... i didn't realize you would be so angry." you heard him make a hesitant sound before he spoke again. "we'll be here another week and I'll try to behave until we return."

you dropped your hand from your hair instead rubbing the bridge of your nose. tears were starting to gather in your eyes.

"don't bother coming back here. next time i see you you'd be lucky if i don't actually kill you."

you heard a strangled noise on the other side of the phone.

"no... please please, i know im bad. im the trash beneath your shoes. im disgusting and vile. but please please please" you could hear his voice cracking as he started to quietly cry.

you hated how it pulled at your heart.

"you should have thought about that before you 'couldn't resist'." you heard your own voice sounding rough and raw.

"i... i didn't think a toy would make you this angry i-"

"a what."

"a -a toy? the-the toy i bought..."

".... im gonna fucking murder you. you bought a sex toy??"

"yes-! im sorry. im sorry i knew i shouldn't have. i should have just waited. im sorry."

"you..." you couldn't help but laugh as tears fell down your cheeks. "fuck you're stupid."

"im sorry i know. im sorry."

"shut up. jesus... i thought you were cheating on me moron."

"i would never?? i-??" he sounded so genuinely confused.

"you've been avoiding me all week, chilles. you won't take my calls, you text me like a robot, and when I finally hear your voice you're all... horny."

"ive been very busy... every night ive had to go to different nightclubs for meetings... you always manage to call when im trying to be intimidating and I know i wouldn't be able to compose myself if I heard your voice."

"and tonight? you did it again."

"i... i should have answered but i knew i was misbehaving. .....and it would have been hard to speak."

"what were you doing? don't spare the details. i don't want room for more misunderstanding."

you heard him swallow hard.

"i bought the largest... silicone penis... they had at the store. i used some spare rope to tie a noose to the closet and then i put a chair with the toy in it underneath the noose. you called right when i started..."

"you're such a freak. jesus..." you wiped the last of the tears from your face. you let out a sigh of relief and relaxed into the couch. "you shoulda just answered i would have talked you through it."

"i was embarrassed and ashamed of myself... i knew you would be angry"

"yeah i think being convinced you were cheating on me is much better."

"i would never cheat on you. you're the only thing that holds meaning to me. you are my god, i only continue to exist by your will."

"there you go saying weird shit again."

"i mean it... my whole being is only for you. you're not my soulmate you're the owner of my soul. i wish you would carve me open and live inside my skin only then would i be close enough to you." you heard him whine softly.

"freak. ...i miss you. so much. i guess it's getting to my head not being able to hear you say your weird shit and worship me every day."

"i miss you so deeply... i feel empty and purposeless without you. even sexual gratification was empty..."

"did you finish?"

"yes... im.. im still sitting on it. i just removed the noose so i could talk to you."

"perv. c'mon baby boy drag yourself off that thing. it's bath time."

you heard him shift slightly most likely shivering.

"will you... guide me through bath time?"

"yeah. it'll help me relax too."

"thank you, sir. i love you."

you let out another sigh. you could feel your heart swell at his words spoken so softly with only the slightest of warmth. it was like you were freezing because his slight warmth seeped into your heart and spread through every inch of your body.

"i love you too."

BONUS;;

achilles: i don't really sound like a robot do i?

"Don't bite your lips, you're so selfish. Lemme do it for you ;)"

Trigger Warnings; jealousy, Cocky!Yandere, manipulation, possessiveness, yandere behaviors, bad writing, hinting at nsfw but doesn't show anything, I had afab!reader in mind but I think it can be gn!reader too If I missed anything, then please let me know ♡ Just some jealousy thoughts about LoveSick!Athlete... As usually, if ya' got any requests/suggestions, then let me know!!! (I'm definitely not running out of steam lol)

Well, you see, LoveSick!Athlete doesn't really get jealous, so to speak. I mean, of course, he does get jealous, everyone does, seeing as it's a normal human emotion. And he's not a complete robot or anything. The thing is, he's just too cocky, too confident in himself to feel it often.

It's a mixture of confidence for you and himself. He's attractive, and he knows it. He's a twenty-one, lean, athlete who can kick anyone's ass if they dared to flirt with you. Though, he never does, seeing as he doesn't see any of these men as threats. Actually, he sees it as comedy, something that makes him laugh. He really pities these guys who think they can get with you, the hottest chick on uni campus. Like, really, what does this guy think he's doing, doll? Does he really believe that a babe like you would fork up your number to anyone? Especially, a guy who's already got a bald spot?

Honestly, he's really mean about it, and sometimes you can't help but feel bad for the guys who approach you. But, come on now, they must be stupid or something to completely brush off the arm that's wrapped around you shoulder. They likely just ignored it, hoping to save their ego, somewhat. They should've just seen it coming, at least, that's how you rationalize it.

He knows you wouldn't fuck another guy for two reasons:

1. First of all, why would you? Especially, when you have the hottest guy around the block. LoveSick!Athlete loves you to death. He makes sure your needs are met. That you're never hungry, thirsty, or needy. Nope, his baby's never left hanging. He's never left you high and dry, the bedroom set aside.

2. Who would hook up with? No, really, I'm serious. LoveSick!Athlete has practically chased off all competition, all you got is him. There's not a second that you're away from him, besides the bathroom. If you got a different class than him, welp he's waiting right out the door for you, ignoring all the whispers from your classmates who gawk at the hockey player.

3. He knows you're busy, he makes sure you are, with all that classwork, trying to get through college in one piece. What a hard worker you are; he's so proud of you. You're far too caught up in your grades and semester hours to be bothered with other men, though he's made sure that he's the only one that stuck around. Don't worry, he doesn't mind your tight schedule. You can't go to a cafe, date, 'cause you have to study? That's okay, what do you want? He'll bring it to your dorm! 'Cause, y'know, he's sweet like that ;)

4. And finally, though this isn't really a separate reason, he made sure that everyone knew ya'll were together. Well, not that you know that. He told all his buddies about you, how sweet you are, and how you're such a good girlfriend. I mean, he knows you guys never made it official, but what's the problem with that? You're practically dating, in his mind. You guys text/call all the time, you go out to eat together, go to amusement parks, and so, so much more. How is that not dating? Why *wouldn't* you want to date him? You guys would be such a power couple, don't 'cha think, babe? Our babies would be so cute; I hope they have your eyes <;3?"

Huh?

Movie Review: Subservience

I did actually end up watching Subservience. I had absolutely no preconceptions going into it, but ... man, bad movie. I will admit to having watched this one on a second monitor while playing a video game, but I don't think that really impacts my reading of it.

It turns out that it's an erotic thriller, and specifically, a type of erotic thriller that I'm not sure has a name, but which I'll call "man ruiner". These were all the rage in the early 90s before petering out, and I've seen it called the "woman from hell" genre, though this is a somewhat more specific subset that would exclude movies like Single White Female.

Basically, there's a hard-working but horny family man, a woman comes into his life and seduces him, he either cheats on his wife or resists temptation, then the woman goes psycho and attacks his family, his wife, and him, before dying, with the man having learned a valuable lesson and reconciled with his wife.

Fatal Attraction is the ur-example, and there aren't that many of them, even if there were enough that people got sick of them. Swimfan is a bad movie, but I have the impression that it's the most recent one people really remember.

Often the woman in question is a subordinate of some kind: a nanny, temp worker, an assistant, someone who is, in theory, in a position of much less power than our male lead. Sometimes, she's young. Sometimes real young, like creepily young (The Crush).

The psychological impetus for this kind of movie is male desire. It's playing on a male fear of a "moment of weakness". One of the key features is this inverted power dynamic. The woman is the aggressor, not just when we get to the thriller part, but as we're ramping up. The woman might be a maid or teacher or employee, but she's on the pursuit almost from the get-go, and her obsession is what drives the plot.

So this movie is just like all of those. Our protagonist is a construction foreman whose wife is in the hospital with a weak heart, and he's taking care of two little kids on his own. He hires a hot robot maid/nanny, played by Megan Fox, who basically immediately begins acting inappropriately. She eventually sleeps with the main character, but when she does, he has basically as much deniability as he possibly can while she pushes through his weak resistance. I'm pretty sure a movie like this will always have that structure, attempting to preserve the man's "virtue" and make him into a victim of the woman and her wiles. These movies are always sympathetic to the man even as he makes his "mistake".

The fact that she's a robot woman is immaterial until like ... act three. She could have just been a maid he hired until then, and virtually nothing about the plot would need to change. There's a half-assed B-plot about robots taking over a construction site and automation taking jobs, but I never felt like they were taking that seriously, and I doubt anyone in the audience was thinking that either. It didn't tie in well with the main plot.

There's fuck-all explanation for why the robot maid goes psycho, except maybe that it's part of a bad batch and our hero had her do a minor memory wipe so she could experience Casablanca fresh without her pre-programmed spoilers. This somehow gave her root access. I know that sounds stupid, but I swear that's like half the explanation they give.

This movie, and others that are in the same subgenre, come from this sort of anxiety about having power over other people, and especially being attracted to people we have power over. It's a horror story whose moral is "don't fuck the nanny" or "keep it professional with the secretary" or "absolutely do not chat up that sixteen-year-old" or just "don't shit where you eat". I think that these are good morals, but I feel vaguely gross about wrapping them in eroticism and presenting the people these horror stories happen to as the victim. The roles are almost always reversed in real life: the protagonist of this sort of movie is in a position where he's far more likely to be a perpetrator abusing a position of power. It's still a plot I can get behind, if they execute well (by this I mean, sell me on the mistake, sell me on the allure), but this one didn't.

(There is at least one example of an opposite-gender version of this basic plot, 2015's The Boy Next Door, which features Jennifer Lopez as a teacher who sleeps with a teenage student in a "moment of weakness" and gets her life wrecked when he goes obsessive stalker on her. 12% on Rotten Tomatoes. I haven't seen it but the trailer is the whole movie.)

So a bad movie, overall. It sadly had nothing to say about artificial intelligence or our relationship to it. It doesn't even really have much to say about these characters, and their relationship to each other, and the ethics of fucking a robot maid. There is a genuine lack of subservience. It's the kind of movie that makes me want to write a better version of it, something that gets at its actual themes more than it did, making better use of the conceit. But I felt no desire to absolve this man of his sins, and I think that's also one of the central fantasies the film offers, so maybe if I ever attempted to write a "man ruiner" film I would end up getting it wrong.

My redneck neighbor Doug's interpretations on various 'Bad Batch' characters: Side Character Edition!

I'm chuffed that everyone thinks my neighbor Doug is funny: he really is a gem. I had no idea we'd bond over Star Wars and crappy weather, but here we are.

Naturally, I had to bother him about other characters that showed up on The Bad Batch, so, here we go!

Phee Genoa: Ah-ha, that there’s Church Lady. You know her, she’s got a big square in her pocketbook and you don’t know if it’s pound cake or a brick, because the Lord saves but He can’t help you in the alley when you’re in Treme and the streetlights just turned on. She has two ex-husbands who are both preachers and they turned to Jesus because they are so scared of Church Lady in court. 

(So I guess he’s saying Phee has raw WHO DAT energy, for my Saints fans out there)

Cid: Looking at this fat lizard bitch makes me hungry. I call that one Houma-BBQ because I’m guessing we could feed a whole parish fire station based on the size of her tail. I wish she’d shut up, she reminds me of my mother-in-law. 

Cad Bane: Homeboy looks like a Sesame Street character who teaches Big Bird about concealed carry laws. I call him Gun Safety Muppet. I don’t like him because he shot my Wife and I’s Boyfriend on the other show and his robot needs to be tossed into a wood chipper. 

(“I’m not gay, but Jenny and I…well, we would make an exception to that man. You ever see ‘Deadwood’? Man is fine. I’m not GAY.”)

Fennec Shand: That’s The Chick that’s in Everything. She was on ER and Boba Fett and I think a Marvel show too? I like her. Hope she kills Gun Safety Muppet and hurls his blue ass into a dumpster. 

Howzer: That’s my niece’s boyfriend, Jorge. We all love Jorge, nice guy, owns an auto repair shop and always remembers plates and napkins for the cookouts after church.

Gregor: Jorge’s cousin, Manny. Met him once at Christmas in Miami, nice guy, only drinks brown liquor and insists everyone arm wrestle him. But he’s got a good job as a PE teacher, we respect education, come on now. 

The Martez Sisters: Aw, man, it’s Jorge’s Unemployed Sisters. I hate it when they show up for Christmas and get into fights with my momma. 

(“Doug, you know they’re not related to the clones at all, right?” “Says who?” “The PLOT?” “Eh, they’ll change it, just watch.”)

Mayday: Aw, I liked this guy so much! That’s Sassy Park Ranger, he’s the type that gives you your camping permits, warns you about the bears, and then is all disappointed when you don’t properly stow your food and the bears destroy the campsite. I need to go back to Little River Canyon, that place was pretty. 

Lt. Nolan: THAT STUPID BLOND JACKASS. (Doug was so enraged by the guy he had nothing else to add. Damn.)

Senator Chuchi: Why does this lady make me want a blue slushie? I’ll call her the Sonic Special. They need more Sonics here in the north, they really do. 

Cody: That’s Obi-Wan’s Boyfriend, he’s sad all the time. We know why. (Confirmed that Doug is a Codywan shipper and I don’t know what to do about that)

Royce Hemlock: Is that Jimmy Neutron after he grew up and became one of those guys that’s on the internet all the time writing creepy things? It’s Jimmy-the-Scientist. He looks like the type of person dogs get weird around.

Rex: That's Rex. He's a king. Respect him.

[thegeminisage]

star trek update time. i realized when i went to type updates on enterprise that i never posted my notes about the 4th and final tng film so that's what this post is

first of all, this move was in fact bad, but the most hilarious part of it was trying to convince us that tom hardy was sir patrick stewart's clone. i'm a little bit face blind and even EYE can see the difference there

secondly, the planet remus introduced so much confusion. why are the alien planets naming themselves after earth mythology? what is a reman? this was the only thing i really felt curious about and they never explained ANYTHING

audible reaction when picard came onscreen the first time. perfectly synchronized cries of "gross!" we're professional haters. luckily, we don't have to see him again until picard. i won't miss him.

when he told data to shut up at the wedding toast :( WHY DOES PICARD HATE AUTISTIC PEOPLE

we did use the mexico filter in this movie. really something.

it's always funny when we find a disembodied data head and despite my low opinion of tng i do appreciate that they jumped on that opportunity whenever possible

"why is your head shiny" also good. get his ass

riker's beard is back. thank god.

WEPT when captain janeway showed up. it should have been the janeway movie. i wanted to know everything about how she was doing!!!

giving data's memories to some random robot we found on the ground is so stupid. what if that guy is lore. what if he's rigged to blow

"she's a predator!!" i don't remember what this means

the viceroy looks like nosferatu

BALD TOM HARDY IS SO FUNNY. bald on bald violence. solas ass looking motherfucker. the clone reveal makes total sense when you consider tom hardy is also bald. thats the big similarity. don't worry about the lucious lips on tom hard picard lost them because of a lifetime of diplomacy or whatever. even his hs pic was bald

sexism against deanna was rampant in this movie as always. picard as like hey can you get mind raped again for us? like in the line of duty? fuck off

data licking that nasty shit like connor dbh. please.

"romulans aren't women" i love tng. just kidding, i don't

tom hardy freeing slaves like solas lol. this movie is way more fun when you pretend its dragon age

speaking of, that whole telepathic assault bit with the sex scene was wretched and vile but it was VERY rook and solas

she was so hot in her nightgown by the way. please free her but she was so hot

her revenge was also SO hot. in a better movie all the sexist stuff would have been worth it for that. just once she deserves to fight back. it was so cathartic.

i miss geordi's visor. the blue eyes are racist

they mentioned the borg in this movie and it made me miss 7

"life is meaningless if you're still alive" i also don't remember what this means

"tom hardy neck bad" i don't remember this either but i believe me

data neck pinch! i also miss spock

the little cgi squirrel or whatever was so cute. i had to check doesthedogdie

picard little spooning in this gd movie. hey also why is he cheating on beverly again didn't they get together fr in the tng finale? i hate him

tom hardy went out so sexy. impaled himself on that spear. this is the worst movie ever made and he still put his pussy into it

the scene where data had to shut down that other data :( that genuinely got me, like he's so lonely

data's princess leia moment...i can't believe they killed him fr. i know he's in picard so i was shocked when they ended the movie w him still dead

also, wasn't this movie about putting down a slave rebellion? because tom hardy was helping free slaves? granted i wasn't paying a lot of attention but captain picard, what the fuck?

also, picard being sad while geordi has to work...geordi was his bestie you bitch!!

my final note here is "WORD CUCK CHAIR" which i think i typed after worf watched riker and deanna hold hands. never forget that they dated. also, someone needs to ask him about his dead wife.

[blackstarchanx3new]

Creations AU, But I obnoxiously over explain it PT 3

Pages 61-90

Back at it again with Mike and his silly little adventures in Freddy's.

Huh.

What'd you see.

Stop being vague.

Who are these creepy masked people???

The bullies from FNAF four

Damn if only there was an entire side comic FNAF 4 cough cough I made about them that will explain that lol. We'll get to the side comics I promise. ;)

Whatever he saw, he's terrified to re-live.

Ouch.

Someone got hurt-

What the hell are you apologizing for exactly?

What'd you do?

None of those people in the masks were you...

We can tell cause they actually had a skin tone lmfao.

Oh that could use some cream.

So that's why "the bite" kept making Mike uncomfortable...

This kid got his head munched on.

And it wasn't ACTION but LACK of action he's cowering in fear from a child over.

Side note this panel out of context is hilarious and I won't pretend it's not.

Hi Bonnie! :D

He is the best.

Damn okay.

What's reality?

Ominous poster of the yellow Freddy for sure isn't important.

Haha Mike ya have episodes like this often? Often enough he composes himself afterwards.

He's utterly bamboozled Bonnie apparently SAW the kid he was chasing so...maybe.

That smirk is unsettling.

So this part of the building used to be "Fredbear's" the place Michael's favorite animatronic "Spring Bonnie" is from and mentioned earlier. Fredbear is clearly the one who bit the child.

I'd be scared too Bonnie thousand yard stares are concerning.

That's hysterical coming from the clearly possessed giant rabbit but go off I guess-

He's obviously trying to make Mike feel better which is nice of him. UwU

Aww. Hug how sweet.

So now we know a bit more about Mike. Let's review:

This nameless kid Mike saw die was obviously Michael's brother Cody Afton from all the context clues we've been given:

Mike's reaction to Micheal bringing up Fredbears, due to it being a traumatic event.

Cody being "Bit"

Mike doesn't seem TOO sure they're the same person but we know it is.

Mike blames himself for not doing anything at the time to stop Cody's head from getting crunched.

Mike's grasp on reality is...Flimsy. Self admittedly he thinks it's flimsy and he knows when he needs to go home when it's too much.

Mike is desperate for comfort over his trauma with Freddy's and Bonnie's a cool dude who'll give it.

You'd think Bonnie would be a bully from his intro but he's actually a super caring guy, he just can't stand people who purposely cause problems.

Bro comes in clutch with the hugs.

You can see why Freddy would run to this guy to solve issues haha.

So from those first panels we know 1 thing:

He had no clue Ennard was in the room with them. So add stalking to the list of creepy things that clown robot has done so far.

My god it's an old man-

He's Micheal's dad! :D William Afton!

Alright I'm gonna stop being goofy and vague for a moment:

It's obvious he's evil as fuck and for the people who like to bitch he has a personality in this comic or ANY media where people give William a personality: Stop making excuses as to why you write him one note you cowards, you can give him a personality without condoning what he does lmfao. Only a bad writer would say you HAVE to make him one note for him to work. Fucking morons actually you are stupid if you believe that.

If you wanna make him cartoonishly evil with NO redeeming qualities: Cool. Whatever. Just shut the fuck up don't act like yours is "Better" because you can't think of ways to make him anymore interesting.

Everyone's William caters to their tastes. Nobody's is PERFECT. I only judge stupid vapid bitches who complain about other interpretations while blowing smoke up their own asses. Because an ego isn't pretty on anyone lmfao.

The idea giving William a personality makes you a terrible writer/person needs to die I'm sorry that's such a stupid as fuck idea idk who came up with it but kindly stop writing and stop giving writing advice. UwU With love~ From me!~

Anyways I've spoiled William is a bad person who does a bad thing, Won't say what yet but all the death in the building can give ya some ideas. And apparently because William is bad guy there's "Rules" on how to write him. From a bunch of 12 year olds who dunno how to write but I digress.

I detest the idea of that. Because let's be real all FNAF characters are blank slates and the idea of squashing creativity is dumb. Literally go wild with your FNAF AUs.

Rant aside: William seems to be a bit of...An ass.

Just slightly manipulative and rude language towards his only living child it's fine-

Ah yes. He also demands physical affection.

We get Michael's age, he's 23 aka still a damn baby.

Also, William and Michael are British.

Since we're on voices:

Mike Schmidt would sound like Legoshi from Beastars lmfao. I imagine Bonnie with a new York accent. Freddy sounds like a lady.

We finally get to see what Ennard and Michael interact like together...

Michael doesn't seem to put up with him.

Ennard's kind of a prick.

Also apparently they have a HISTORY.

One that involves Michael talking shit about his father...

For people who know shit about the games: Yes Ennard is possessed by the same person from the games.

Hah Michael tricked him.

Okay so everyone in Michael's life is manipulative towards him.

Neat.

Also Ennard is a raging hypocrite.

Also conformation William is an owner not just a robot maker. (Can't remember if this was brought up earlier again some of these pages are 2 years old lmfao)

Also this comic assumes you got SOME Fnaf knowledge. I'd hope it's still interesting for those of you who are here for my other stuff! XD

Like ouch Ennard ya don't gotta be such a jerk.

Also Mike is cute.

This panel unironically is one of my favorites because this man doesn't scream in terror at any of the terrifying robots:

It's the gay guy he's trying to befriend he screams like a little girl at.

Another help wanted joke about the Faz token under the cupcake in the office.

Michael just wants to hang out with Mike obviously.

Despite all the shit he's clearly going through dude puts on a very pointy smile.

This man is built like a cat.

Lol they made pizza together. How cute.

Hah bro is apologizing for something he didn't even do nor has control over-

Is it obvious Michael is abused yet?

Going real unsubtle here: Everything about Michael shows off he has been abused in some way shape or form.

Michael wants to think he's being friendly for reals despite clearly having second thoughts due to Ennard.

Bro is desperate for a connection with someone.

Also

Pff.

Mike c'mon Bonnie's so sweet how could you- X'D

Few things: William doesn't "Let" Michael do things.

If it wasn't apparent he was controlling as hell before it sure is now.

Also Michael is embarrassed of his interests.

Also the locker:

Again we see an instance of Michael going by "Mike" as his locker literally just has a piece of paper tapped over it adding the rest of his name lmao.

Michael is used to being toyed around with that is sad.

Bonnie continues to be a sweetheart even when he's off screen. X'D

Mike attempts to relate to Michael's interests once again.

Also another instance of Bonnie lying his ass off about how close Michael and him are:

He knows Michael's locker combination and puts gifts in there lmao.

Mike clearly likes that plush a lot. Maybe he likes Chica a lot lmao. Who knows.

One thing to note:

If Michael's working day shifts and night shifts...when does he sleep?

Grant it, it isn't ALL THE TIME but still bro's sleep schedule must be OBLITERATED.

Oh hi giant floating head in the hallway you're stalking Michael too huh?

This is just two sides of someone's brain arguing with itself that the entire positive interaction they just had was terrible AND the other party hates them.

And that comparison only makes more sense down the road.

Yeah Michael you tell him. You don't need to take that from him.

Jeremy's a cool dude.

Also the fact the kids pay no mind to this argument is funny.

Also Ennard taking genuine offense to Jeremy being a better friend lmao. Anyone can be a better friend than Ennard. X'D

We hit the image limit but oh boy. So much joy in this update.

Broken Heart Key Chapter 5

Another Month…

Sonic found himself looking at another map for the next dig site. Now that his hands healed up, he was itching to get back in there again. All the photos he took before were analyzed by now. Something about a snake. Cliff said it was a myth from their ancestors. Imprisoning Lyric for all eternity. Seems they found his Prison. Well, Egghead found it then tried to have Sonic open it. It was fate that seemed to take his hands being injured. They weren't now though. 

He heard steps and listened. Not Tails, although his brother had gotten taller so they sounded a little heavier this time. Shadow had a light step, so it wasn't him. He kept listening and realized who it was before they could speak. 

“I am not being yelled at again Jet. Why are you here?” Sonic asked. 

"We started a fight and you never came!” He screamed. 

"Oh, you mean the one from yesterday? When I was busy helping here? Wow, it's almost like I just…don't want to fight anymore. Ever think about that? Oh wait, you don't think about it. You only think about yourself.” Sonic waved a hand to dismiss him. 

"Some hero you are! We need your help and you ignore us?” 

"Yeah, you need help alright. To open a prison! I am not stupid. I know you want to wake Lyric. I ain't doing that.” 

Jet walked over and forced him to face the bird, “you will! Or I'll hurt your precious brother!” 

"Tch, Tails could kick your ass, trust me.” Sonic pushed himself free. 

"Is that so? What about your precious miners?”

A sound outside had Sonic zip out to see Eggman attacking the encampment. 

“Oh, Sonic! I think you owe me a fight!” Eggman laughed. 

“I came at a bad time,” Shadow's voice has Sonic relax and look at him. 

“You s-” 

"Chaos Control!” 

Time froze, but Shadow pulled Sonic and unfroze him. A shock for Sonic to see time frozen. He then looked at Shadow and what was in his hands. 

"I was told you liked Red Roses and Lavender.” Shadow held the bouquet out to him and looked away. “I am not…good at this stuff, so I had to ask Amy.” 

In the years he had been “dating” Jet, he always gave the gifts. He never got anything. Even on holidays. Even if it was all one sided, something simple would have been nice. He slowly took the bouquet into his arms and smiled. 

“Thank you,” He looked at them and smelled them. 

Shadow caught the glowing happiness and melted. Then he quickly turned away. 

“We have a fight to win. We can talk in the tent after it.” Shadow let time resume and focused on Sonic's reaction more. 

The hero looked happy over something as simple as flowers. He went to Amy to ask what Sonic would like as a gift. Something someone would enjoy receiving. She said everyone loved getting their favorite flower. Each had some deep meaning. Not that he knew but Amy said Sonic loved Red Roses and Lavender a lot. Roses symbolized different forms of love. Red means romance. 

"They are just flowers!” Jet yelled. 

Sonic didn't even pay attention to the bird, “I'll put these up.” He was gone and then back. “There. Safe and put in water.” 

“Shall we?” Shadow took a step to the side. 

"What a gentleman,” The hero sped by and hit Eggman's robot first. 

"hadow jumped and kicked the bird back onto his board, “your fights with me. I have been waiting for a while to do this.” 

"Let's go then, Hot Topic!” Jet got ready for a fight. 

"Tch, I hate that nickname.” Shadow muttered as he jumped. His fist met Jet’s face. 

The bird fell back again, but he got up and followed Eggman. Both leave the Encampment after losing. Sonic took past the robot and left the Egg Mobile at best, barely hovering. It sputtered away. 

“As always, the hero lets the villain get away.” Shadow looked at him. “Really should finish him off.” 

"Age is. That is the worst built thing I saw. Not sure why but…feels as if Egghead is…not all here.” Sonic looked at him. 

“Could be. Age does many things. Now, I want to talk to you. In your tent.” Shadow walked towards it while pulling Sonic along by the hand. 

They could hear the people cheering about the win and thanking Sonic and Shadow for what they did. Once inside, he closed the flap. It was organized and he saw the flowers in a vase full of water. Right at the workstation. 

"So I can always see them. What did you want to discuss? You normally come in with something not as serious.” 

"I know you built a coffin for that heart of yours. I know very well who helped ensure that…it would be broken.” Shadow started. “But…” 

He slowly turned to face him. 

"I want to be honest with you when I say this. I think I have fallen for you. This isn't coming from me needing to take care of you. It is but it isn't just that. I want to do that because I want to see you happy.” Shadow continued. “I hate what Jet did to you. I hate how he beat down all your confidence and made you feel less than everyone around you.” 

Shadow walked closer and gently grabbed his hands.

“I hate that he made you feel as if your feelings didn't matter. I can't…fix what he broke completely, but if you'd let me. I’d like to try and fix pieces of it. Even if you want to stay friends, I still want to fix it.” 

Sonic didn't say anything, but he saw his expression. His ears weren't down so it was good. The hero wasn't rejecting the idea. The surprise meant he didn't expect it. And when that all faded, he was processing it all. He never pulled away his hands. So another good sign. So far. 

"You…are asking a lot from…something that is barely able to have…a pulse..” Sonic half laughed at his joke. “I am not…I don't…Shadow I am not sure if I am even…worth what you are feeling.” 

“You are to me. I was just as broken. You did not judge or hold it against me. Even after all I did. I think you are worth it. If Jet has a problem, leave him to me. And I am not asking for a full heartbeat. Even a weak pulse is enough for me.” Shadow shrugged. “Just means it needs patience and time to heal. I can wait as well. You don't have to do anything that you don't want to do.” 

“I learned the hard way what happens when you put…this thing off. I do like you, Shadow. More than you know. Next to Tails, you have been the best thing to happen to me in the last three months. But you are opening a coffin. Not a box and I don't want to waste your time. Especially if it's dead.” Sonic took a deep breath and held his eyes shut for a moment. “I don't want to waste anyone's time.” 

"If you want…we can see how dead it really is.” Shadow took a step closer. 

“I'm covered in dirt.” Sonic told him. 

"I know. It's fresh too. You bathe in it?”

He got the hero to laugh. 

“No, I had to move some today. Amy needed some for a special case. Mines have rich soil apparently.” 

The two laughed for a couple minutes. It got quiet, but another good sign was Sonic didn't pull back from him. 

"You don't sound dead.” Shadow teased. 

Sonic laughed again when Shadow put his head against Sonic's chest. 

“Shadow, that..tickles.” he tried to move away and got pulled back. “There..okay, okay. We can try. Stop tickling me.” 

He got released and saw the most playful grin on the black and red hedgehog’s face. 

"Don't you dare.” Sonic went to run but got grabbed. “Ah! Shads,you are covered in dirt now.” 

"Worth it. We can shower later.”

"Oh, it's We for the shower?” Sonic let him lean against his back. He felt a nod. “I do need to get to work. Unless this was the plan to check for a pulse.” 

"That wasn't the plan to check.” 

It got quiet again. He was glad Sonic still didn't pull away. It wasn't the best plan, but he was winging it mostly. His original plan was to get Sonic out and go on a date. That was how he was going to check how dead that heart was. This worked more. 

He knew some humans, rare as case it was; could die from a broken heart. The pain and issues that caused many could turn deadly. Seems their hearts weren't as different from humans. The idea of Sonic seeing his own feelings as dead was almost a crime to him. If someone asked prior to this, why he had chosen to help. He would have said it was to see a friend just smile and be himself again. 

If they asked him after the second month, he would have said he was trying to figure out why he wanted so desperately to see him just be alive. He did figure it out though. 

Before asking Amy, he had gone to visit Sonic and caught a moment of weakness. He wasn't sure if Sonic ever noticed him though. The hero was holding a hand over his chest. A very distant expression. As if he was trying to feel behind his fur. At the end of the quick moment, Sonic gave up. His hand just fell and he wanted at least a part to feel alive so that he could feel as if he wasn't dead. 

Which ended up leading Shadow finally learning why he had been so desperate to help. While the hero had a broken heart locked in a coffin. He ended up going beyond crush and infatuation. He has fallen in love. Something he had only seen others do. He thought he couldn't. Always nice to be proven wrong. 

"Can I get to work?” Sonic's whispered question got his attention. 

"Yeah, but I want to come.” Shadow let go of him. “See what you've been up to.” 

"Found more relics, supposedly.” 

"Ooh? Really now?” Shadow opened the flap of the tent. 

“Yeah. More information to get for Tails, the journal…” Sonic cooed as he walked by. “Lots of stuff to do.”

“Then we should get started.” Shadow walked with him. 

Sonic giggled, “gonna make my dead heart skip a beat soon.” 

"Then you can't call it a dead heart if I make it skip a beat.”

Transformers One Trailer

That new trailer and I have some thoughts? Surprisingly.

I don't normally watch trailers anymore and I've said why before but it basically boils down to they spoil too much too much of the time and what's the point if I'm sold anyway. Now Transformers One seems like a no-brainer, gives those fans a prequel origin sort of thing as well as an introduction for the newbies who only know the Bay and Rise and Bumblebee movies in animation no less so completely different. Then I saw the images of the designs and oh man0

It looks generic. Like I never watched Transformers Prime, it has its fans but I just do not like that art style and this started making me think of that, like it wasn't finished. I much would've preferred a 2D movie but 3D can be done, look at the War for Cybertron trilogy (which I've already talked about)

Nice and stylized, distinguished, scuffed metal, I wanna lick them. Anyways, that's a show though, it'd look good as a movie and heck, T-One looks good as a show but I don't know, is it just me? I also didn't finish the trilogy because the first one was good and I thought it'd only get better but reviews for the second one came out and they were bogus so I dropped it.

But then I watched the trailer-

And it looks better! Notice anything? They're all close up shots! And you mean to tell me this is the same movie>

Ugh. Visuals out of the way, cast. Why? We don't need all these celebrity voices and I'm someone who supports Peter Cullen just being Optimus all the time but I also understand that he's getting older just like Charles Martinet did with Mario leaving the character in a specific position but you didn't get Chris Pratt?? No I'm just kidding, we got Chris Hemsworth, and really, I can't even tell that it's him, I saw his name attached and I was like "Here we go again" and there are a few times where he had traces of that Cullen voice pattern and it's like an adolescent Optimus settling into his voice- wait am I complementing? Stop that.

Josh Cooley is directing and he's got a pretty decent track record with Pixar, we even see Keegan Michael Key again for whatever reason- oh, it's goofy, it's made for children

"But he says bad ass!" mehmehmehmehmeh, so do the other movies twit, somehow, someway, they get away with anything. He's gotta go and announce everything that's happening "I have knives?!" "I have machine guns in my butt?!" Stupid even for a kid, especially menaging Megatron, what'd you do to my angry baby? He's just reading the script, I know, which also isn't great. So, instead of just being a race of transformers, they're a race of robots that gain the ability to transform to save Cybertron. There's the generic nature again! I also don't see it in the trailer but with the toys, they have this weird thing where they use energy to summon their weapons? Bumblebee is fine with the "KNIVES" but

"I put my hand on a ba-all to see if I still bleeeeddd and nothing hurts anymore, I feel kinda freeeeee" What is that? Just give him an axe, he doesn't have to summon it and then attach it to a ball. But wait- the design is different here, what's going on? These toys don't match up with the movie. Like, look at Bumblebee before and after he transforms, he doesn't look like the toy does (I've used enough pictures, do some leg work) and Megatron...just looks like Megatron and I know these are movie toys, just look at Alpha Trion, so I don't know how much of it is an accurate conversion between the two and I normally wouldn't care but it's that ball that drives me bonkers.

BUT I will say that I support Scarjo playing- who is she playing? Because that's not Arcee. Elita One? Cool name, at least. Oh, she's an OG, we're good then. Lawrence is also a good one. Anyways, disappointed, we'll see.

Nameless Psychosis has got me thinking…

Did Carrie ever leave a note when she died?

How did Rory know it was the girls from school to push her to such a point where she killed herself?

Now I’m gonna throw the idea of the note out of the window and say that Rory DID know it got that bad and “thought she could’ve handle it” so he never stepped up, he never intervened because HE would’ve been more involved than he already was.

“About being MY sister” he says talking about the reasons why Carrie was bullied in the first place.

And I think about the KNN Rory and I know that that he isn’t Rory Rory but he mentions to be there when a friends in need. Maybe a part in his head is still feeling shame of letting it happen?

He wasn’t only upset that he lost his sister he was upset that he had the chance to stop it and he never took it for his own selfish reason of not getting too involved with it.

Similar to how Alex could’ve stopped the final pushes that made Rory kill himself.

Rory reached out and Alex was like “no lol? Robot time.”

Or maybe that’s rly obvious and I’m shitting out of my ass like I always do idk.

It may be in your face but I’m stupid.

Also I’m dead set on NC to be a manifestation of both Rory’s and Alex’s guilt.

Alex’s own guilt about letting him and his sister grow distant and Rory not stopping Carrie from jumping off the overpass.

They’re both neglectful brothers in their own way. But I think the “Good Brother Bad Brother” is complete bullshit, because they both hold good and bad traits. The “muddling up” NC does is probably just a red herring and is there to fuck with you because I believe both are bad and good and since she gets dubbed Carrie but looks like Allison …erm… idk

I think that cause for the ad read for the GBBB(<-lol cba doing it again) it was the other way round of how I thunk it.

“Like uhhh no? Rory isn’t the bad brother? He cared about Carrie even more than Alex cared about his sister!!” Well, erm… you’re both wrong because that’s not how people work!

They’re both bad. They’re both good. They’re both extremely guilty about how they’ve treated their sisters.

Idk I’m rambling at this point and it’s 1am which means I sprout a LOT of nonsense like one time I thought the reason alex wore glasses was because it’s a metaphor for how short sighted he is with everything eueueueue… no.. that’s just a character design, Ray… you’re better than that…. Good erm… YIIK scholars give me a finger wagging if I’ve got anything wrong or if I’m saying the obvious and I sound slow!!!!!!!!!!!

MTMTE 56, 57, and Revolution

MTMTE 56

and now for something completely different

“I know I'm paranoid. Contrary to popular belief, that doesn't mean I think everyone's out to get me. It just means I don't know who is and who isn't.” HEY. BIG SAME LMFAO not to gripe on fandom culture once again but y'all literally ruined my brain chemistry and I think it's fair for me to talk about it lmAO I know that not literally everyone who participates in fandom is an insane person who wants to start a harassment campaign against a complete nobody like me because it would be easy clout and no one would help me, in fact most of you are pretty cool, but I know someone will. Because someone always does. I've seen enough of my peers get hurt and/or die to know that someone always does, even if you think you're not popular enough. Like, I hope y'all realize what a fucking act of bravery posting all this has been for me lmfAO you have no idea how many times I've had to stop myself from editing out a hot take out of fear that even one chronically online individual might feel the need to punish me to protect the purity of the funny alien robot comic, including this paragraph

gfdsjkk I forgot Fort Max just fuckin kicks Prowl while he's in his alt mode so it just looks like he's kicking a police car. ACAB

oh god Outrigger's a fuckin youtuber lmAO

aww I do like that both Fort Max and Red Alert tried to get in contact with anyone they could when they saw everyone's farewell message, they still have everyone's numbers. Ooh except Chromedome changed his, or at least I assume Prowl's talking about Chromedome

ooohh right, this was another theory if I remember correctly, that Fort Max used to be Pious Maximus, like he got shadowplayed from being one to the other. I vaguely remember a panel I think way back in the Shadowplay arc of a dude in the background who looked kind of like Fort Max when Prowl and Chromedome found one of the institutes

casually thousand yard stares off into space at Sentinel's monologue about how Cybertron is now full of “mongrel Cybertronians” and he wants to “wipe the slate clean.” I wish life would imitate art would imitate life a little less lmfAO

*points at Prowl* lol but also Sentinel leave Red alone, he doesn't deserve this

MTMTE 57

ohh man here we go, last issue of MTMTE. It's not the end of the comic, it just changes names, but this still always feels like a milestone. The name changes, the main artist changes, this is absolutely a turning point and it always feels strangely bittersweet to reach it during a readthrough

“You're not one of THOSE, are you?” is still such a funny line of dialogue, truly on some care bears villain shit

still incredibly funny that Prowl has to use his table-flipping skills to reactivate the titan. The release mechanism was just. Conveniently table-shaped

man no wonder Red Alert got overwhelmed and tried to end it, poor dude's been out here playing 4D chess with his own brain for millions of years

fgshdjks Sentinel gets knocked into a pit by a bird and unceremoniously falls to his death. I've never seen anyone get more owned in my life

“You hate change. I sympathize.” “I hate endings.” “Same thing.” yEAH. YEAH THAT'S WHY THIS ALWAYS FEELS SO BITTERSWEET like yeah it's not an actual ending, but it is the end of certain constants that had been established (like the name, the main artist, etc) and like. That's enough! That's enough of a change for it to be felt! Not to get too deep or anything but it's normal to mourn for the loss of a life you're still living because it's no longer the same life

MTMTE Revolution

but before we move on, one more issue of MTMTE lmAO

god I completely forgot about Crankcase's online boyfriend

gfsjdkl Krok and Fulcrum trying to help Crankcase prepare for his date........ they're real ones

gOD THEIR STUPID HOLOMATTER AVATARS...

THEY FUCKIN BURIED HIS ASS god they are so bad at humans lmfAO

aww, Grimlock... shame he had to level a handful of cities to get his keepsake back but that's very sweet lmAO

fdhjks poor MP3

Chapter 19: Dome Sweet Dome

Shadow flew out through the crack of the gateway, turning back to see the Grim Blaze's right after him.

Shit. This was bad. 

He took off flying from a shard, trying to escape them before they could snatch him. He tried to make his way towards the closest gateway, New Yoke, only to slip up on a shard and begin crashing into others.

The cats kept chasing after him, forcing him to hide and deflect as much as he could. 

"Argh! Venice! Stop this right this instant!" Shadow yelled.

Venice kept watching the screen, looking through his robot's eyes. He heard a soft grunt from behind him, before some straining.

He turned to see Infinite, now in his recently built shockade, holding him there. "You're awake..."

"Let me go!" Infinite yelled, struggling to break free.

"... No. I need you for something important."

"The hell are you talking about?!"

Venice hummed a little, typing on his computer.

"If Shadow does care about you... He'd come running right back here for you. He'd have no choice but to give himself up to me."

"You... You're a maniac if you think that."

"Perhaps I am... I'm sorry, but this is just how it has to be."

Infinite gritted his teeth, growling a little.

Shadow flew into New Yoke, landing directly on the trash can lid and sliding off of it.

"I'm never going to get used to that specific landing..." He groaned.

He got up and ran to the roof, noticing just how many tears into the void there were. 

"This... This is a disaster... But why would he... Do this?" he asked softly.

"That's rich, coming from you." a voice scoffed.

Shadow looked up to see a figment of Venice staring down at him.

"What the hell are you doing?! Can't you see everything falling apart?!" he snapped.

Venice gazed at the sight, his expression softening as he solemnly stared. He shook his head. 

"... Its not important... None of it is."

"But it is!"

"That's what you said before."

Shadow frowned, seeing that Venice wasn't understanding the situation at hand.

"... Shadow. Come with me back to the Grim. Now." Venice ordered.

"No. I know what you'll do when I come there."

"It's for the greater good of the Shatterverse, Shadow. Why must you be so selfish...?" the figment began to fizzle.

Venice suddenly strained, struggling to keep his connection. "No no no! I'm not... Letting go!" he yelled.

The Grim Blaze's swooped into New Yoke through the cracks, almost striking many civilians. Shadow rushed down and brought them to the safest place he could find.

A cat pinned him down, about to fire directly at his skull before it was struck back by a hammer.

"Get up. We need to go, now!" Thorn held her hand out to him.

"Thorn?! How are you-"

"The world is falling apart. Get on!" Rebel directed.

Thorn pulled Shadow to his feet, launching him to Rebel. She caught him, dropping him on the Yolkamotive. 

"There you are... You okay?" Vine asked, kneeling down to him.

"Yeah... I'm fine." Shadow breathed.

"Black Rose. Head to the Yoke." Tempest directed.

Shadow's ears perked up. "Wait... The Yoke?! Where the Chaos Council is? But... That place is dangerous!"

"We don't have anywhere else to go! It's the safest place here." Tempest reasoned.

Bullet grumbled. "I don't want to go back there..."

"Ye don't have much of a choice." Gale sighed.

Shadow watched as the world kept crumbling around them, the team driving over to the Yoke before landing.

Venice collapsed to the ground, panting heavily. 

"Wow. That was stupid to watch." Infinite remarked. 

"SHUT IT." he snapped. 

Venice turned back, breathing in slowly to calm himself back down. 

"The Prism energy unstable... I need Shadow to get here..." 

He paused, trying to think of a way to lure him in. He turned to look at Infinite, flying down to him. 

"Perhaps... An ally of his universe would be a fair enough trade?" 

Infinite froze. "You wouldn't..." 

"Oh, I would. And don't worry, once this is all over you'll be free again..." 

"Tch, yeah... Free to kick your ass." 

Venice glared at him, his stare enough to kill others with how terrifying it seemed. 

Infinite stopped talking, clasping his mouth shut. Venice's expression returned to being more muted again. 

"Much better."

Meanwhile, the Chaos Council continued to watch from inside their Mothership. Shadow leapt off the Kraken, quickly running off as the grim cats flew after him.

"Fools. As if we'd ever offer shelter for the common rabble." Eggman scoffed.

"We barely have enough energy in reserves to save ourselves!" Done-It said.

Babble babbled, unhappy with this situation at all.

Shadow continued to skate around, hearing the cats chase after him. He swerved around a corner, avoiding them as they began to fire flames. 

He turned another corner, going down an alleyway and leaping upwards. He got to the rooftops and continued to run, trying to figure out how to take out the cats. 

He then noticed them make a turn and head towards the Yoke. He quickly redirected himself, chasing after them before they could attack anyone else. 

He got to the top, ramming into the cats and charging up his chaos energy, he was about to fire before he was thrown to the ground by another one of the cats. 

He grunted, staggering to his feet and gripping his arm. "Is that all you got...?"

The cats began to approach Shadow, all about to fire at him. 

"Hey cat brains. Get off my lawn!" Done-It pointed his charged up cane towards the cats.

Shadow looked at them, confused. Before the rest of the Chaos Council in their mechs came forward. 

Done-It began to fire, making the cats screech and go after the council instead. They all charged into the fight as Shadow watched in surprise. 

"This is where you thank us, you miserable rodent!" Done-It said, continuing to shoot at the robots.

"But... Why are you helping me all of a sudden?" Shadow questioned. He was whisked off his feet by Deep by his arm. 

"Helping? More like using. We need your energy." he began, dropping Shadow back down to the ground afterwards. 

"For what?"

"We'll talk later. Plus, if we don't stop this crazy rat, New Yoke City and us won't be around for much longer."

... Huh. Self serving. 

Fair play. 

Babble chucked one of the cats as Eggman blasted the other back. More cats came in, hissing loudly. 

Shadow sighed. "I can't believe I'm saying this... Eggmen. Let's destroy some cats."

"Behind me, simpleton. I'm the leader here." Eggman pushed Shadow back.

"Au contraire, Mr. Doctor. I clearly lead this multitude." Deep cut in.

Shadow groaned. "Focus on the now and discuss this later. Now we need to destroy those cats."

Deep threw his ninja stars at one of the cat, letting it dodge. Shadow grabbed onto its legs, forcibly pulling it down as Deep aimed again, the stars exploding on impact and sending the bot crashing to the ground. 

"Hm... Not bad." he remarked.

"Indeed. And now, for another." Deep directed his sword to Shadow, who immediately began charging up his chaos energy again.

"Same. Side." he gritted his teeth.

Deep chuckled a little. "Old habits."

Eggman punched one of the cats as Shadow spindashed into it, launching it back. The mech threw the cat into the air, letting Babble slam his fists down and send the cat crashing to the ground. 

The final cat remained, with Done-It aiming his cane as Babble made sure the robot couldn't escape. It hissed, taking off into the air and out of sight.

"It's... Gone. Thank gaia but... Why?" Shadow pondered out loud.

"Hm. It seems like you've... Destroyed the bots. But it's fine, maybe a trade would entice you more-" Venice's figment began to glitch again. He stopped, trying to fix it as it glitched.

"No... Not again...!" it fizzled out.

"Come back, coward! We are not done!" Eggman yelled.

"... I don't think he wanted to go. It was like... His powers must be on the fritz." Shadow said aloud.

"How? If he's managed to complete the Prism, he should have nearly unlimited power." Deep said.

"He still needs something... Me." Shadow said.

"Argh! No no no! Why can't I..." Venice struggled to keep himself upright. The prismatic energy was already taking a toll on him. He groaned, leaning on the railing.

He flew up, seeing the shield he put up continue to glitch and decay. He swooped back down and tried to draw on more power, only to collapse from exhaustion again. 

"You'll just run yourself ragged like that. I should know." Infinite remarked.

"No... You don't understand. I... I need this to..."

"Fix your home? I get that. But Venice... I'm not the voice of reason here."

Venice paused, turning to look at him. "Huh?"

"Shadow's not perfect. He tore my family away from me. But he's proven he's changed... For the better. But how it led to that event in my life... Was all on me. I joined the wrong side because they threatened to hurt my family... And then I was abandoned... All alone... I quit on the spot. I didn't care anymore. All I wanted was for Shadow to pay."

"Then why are you helping him?"

"Mutually benefitial."

Venice gave him a flat look. Infinite coughed, continuing.

"But you need to understand he has everyone's best interests at heart... Even if his methods are unorthodox."

"Even so... That doesn't excuse his actions. And I'd prefer to live, thank you very much." Venice turned back to the Prism, trying to draw on more power.

Infinite sighed. "You'll just burn yourself out like that. It's time to stop."

"Never... He will... Pay for this..."

"This is preposterous!" Deep snapped towards the crowd the Kraken came with.

"Just having these things in our home is an affront to everything we hold dear!"

"You know what? You keep talking, Doc, and my hammer will be affront to your face." Tempest spun her hammer around.

Babble yelled at them in retaliation. 

"Everybody, stop!" Shadow yelled.

"... They started it." she scoffed.

"They started all of this." Bullet growled, his ears flattening.

"And we'll gladly finish it. You ungrateful-" Deep began, only to get hit in the back of the head by Done-It's cane.

"Oh, for the love of- keep a sock on it, Deep, and let the hedgehog speak." he said.

Shadow breathed, refocusing on the task at hand.

"... I made a deal with the Chaos Council."

Everyone else on the other side seemed to gasp. 

"You made a deal with these egg-omaniacs?" Black asked.

"Venice is using the Paradox Prism to siphon energy into the Grim. He's created this protective dome to keep his world safe, which has accelerated the decay of the Shatterverse started by... Your portals." Shadow explained. Eggman smiled, a tad embarrassed.

Shadow continued. "We're running out of time. We can't escape him anymore, not while he's got the Prism. But if we use my energy and the Council's Shatter Drive, we can protect ourselves without doing any damage to the Shatterverse. At least until we can figure out how to stop him... So the deal is: I charge their drive, and they give us sanctuary inside the dome."

"I want to hear it from them." Rebel said, staring at the Council.

"Ugh, the hedgehog speaks the truth. Once the dome is up, we'll let most-" Eggman began.

Shadow cleared his throat, his arms crossed as he stared at them.

"All who wish will be allowed inside."

Done-It hit a button on his controller, letting the glass fade out to show the hamster wheel they'd be using. 

"So, they're gonna drain your energy?" Tempest asked. Rebel swatted her arm. 

"There has to be another way." she said. 

"I don't think there is. You've all seen it. The world's are falling apart. This dome is our only hope." Shadow reasoned. 

"How much energy are we talking about?" Prim questioned. 

"Heh, nothing the hedgehog can't spare, I assure you." Done-It said. 

Bullet narrowed his eyes towards the council. "Shadow. You do realize we can't trust the council, right?" 

"I know, but I don't have a choice. Look, I know you don't trust each other, and you probably shouldn't. But right now, we all have bigger problems." Shadow reasoned. 

"... Told you we couldn't trust that hedgehog." Tempest said. 

"As much as it pains me to admit it, Shadow's right." Rebel said.

"For once, everyone in New Yoke is on the same side. We're all just trying to survive. Once this is over, we'll go back to freeing the city."

"And protecting our forests." Thorn said.

"And saving our seas." Black chimed in.

"And we'll go back to crushing you under our heel! Uh, but only after we've saved New Yoke." Eggman said.

Venice continued to draw on more power, trying to establish a connection so he could see what Shadow was up to. He finally managed, his figment appearing in the city as he looked down. 

He saw it... He saw right through the Yoke. Shadow had teamed up with everyone and was going to use his energy to generate a shield... 

If that's how he wants to play... So be it. 

Venice summoned more Grim Blaze's, sending them out through the cracks and towards New Yoke.

As they flew in, everyone else was busy preparing. Shadow stretched, fluffed up his quills, then got into his stance. 

He took off skating around the hamster wheel, beginning to charge up energy as everyone else watched. 

Venice forcibly controlled his psychokinesis, slowly drifting crystals in and smashing them against the Mothership. 

Don't checked the statistics. "Structural integrity of the Yoke is at 67%. Guy's got game."

"Another blast like that and this whole building will collapse on top of us!" Eggman said anxiously.

Babble babbled, slamming his fist on the table. 

Rebel and Prim took off flying to the outside in an attempt to stop the incoming robots and buy Shadow some time. 

Shadow picked up the pace, going even faster as more energy was built up. But it still wasn't enough. 

The Grim Blaze's soared down, with Rebel and Prim flying up to them in an attempt to stop them.

The shield finally began to go up, slowly enveloping the entire Yoke and preventing the mechanical cats from getting inside. 

Venice's figment dissipated in frustration.

"So... It worked?" Tempest asked.

"Of course it worked, you insipid fool!" Eggman said.

"Oh, that's it. Time to pound some eggs." she pounded her hammers handle into her hands.

Just then, the doors opened as Bullet and Black helped Shadow walk after using up so much energy. 

"Are you... Okay?" Dust asked softly. Windthrow whimpered a little, concerned.

"Yeah... I'm fine..." Shadow heaved.

The entire process was too draining for him, and he couldn't move that much for now but... He'd regain his strength. He just knew it.

Venice growled, slamming his fist on the railing. He breathed, trying to refocus.

"Hm... Well played, Shadow. You might be safe for now..." He flew down to the computer, showing the remains of No Place in its decay...

With Daria and Castaway still aboard the Golden Rose. 

"But not everybody is." 

Bullet, Windthrow, and Gale belong to @son1c. Dust and Castaway belong to @starprincejelly.

No you know what I'm gonna take a second here. [Highly unhinged rant at the fundamental injustice, inefficiency, and sheer bloody-minded stupidity of current social technology below the cut]

Absolute horse piss. God, even setting aside how she deserved better from everyone around her and had the same right to a fully accepted authentic life as everyone else, imagine what she could have done if she was supported instead of being treated like this. If she wasn't fired from her job, ejected from her support network, and didn't have to constantly advocate for herself and people like her to be treated like human beings (which was brave and good work worthy of being honored but should never have been necessary in the first place, like rescuing people from a building that collapsed because it was built like shit)

Like okay I don't talk about this that often but I'm a kidney transplant recipient and I think a lot about how the field (like every other avenue of human endeavour) has been crippled by short-sighted bigotry. STEM fields are still hugely male-dominated (sidebar STEM is not the be all and end all creatives y'all super valid and important and your work is foundational to the functioning of STEM and human endeavour and quality of life as a whole; this is just the example that highlights the point for me personally) and it's like. If we didn't push literally everyone except cishet white guys well off enough to afford tertiary education away from everything in the area, would I just have an artificial kidney by now? Who knows?? I'm probably never fucking going to because stupid nonsense.

It's the same shit. And don't get me wrong, the individual human tragedy of unnecessary hardships on the part of this (and every) trans woman (and so many other groups besides) is morally horrible and an indictment of culture as a whole. But we'd probably have fucking blade runner robots or quantum computers or working fusion reactors or Actual Cool AI Instead Of The Current Horseshit by this point! Or a real Mars colony instead of some blowhard yammering on about it while he inflicts suffering on untold millions! Or God knows what else!

And don't even get me started on lack of opportunity for almost everybody in the world. It's like that quote about all the potential einsteins who were born and died impoverished without ever even touching a science textbook.

Like you wanna know why we're struggling so much? Population increase is supposed to mean more hands and minds on every problem but it doesn't because...ugh! Imagine if we cared about global poverty. Imagine how many more lives free of hunger. Imagine how many more people thinking about how to solve everything that needs solving.

I just. The morality is bad enough. It's a great evil by itself. But the sheer fucking gall of dressing it up behind progress and hard decisions. Do you have any idea how much "progress" this costs us? What a good investment humanity would be if we pulled our heads out of our asses for two seconds? What you, personally, have lost because the person who would have given it to you lived and died in preventable despair?

Again, I have to emphasise. People are worthy without contributing huge individual achievements to the arc of history. Society is a collective and everything everyone does adds to the weave and adds up to what we as a whole achieve, there's no real separating out of "this person did this thing" when they were supported by the entire collective of humanity past and present, and even if there was achievement is not the sole benchmark by which life is measured. A better life for everyone is the point, and the idea of "if I don't think you're contributing then you don't deserve anything" is a big part of how we got here in the first place.

There is no culling of the "unproductive". They are the ones who need this most of all. Every life matters, every life (yes, even that one) is a roll of the dice for a miracle of insight (not just in STEM; it all fucking matters and it always has), every life is its own purpose, every life is worthy, to save one life is to save all of mankind, to enrich one life is to enrich all of mankind, to be a life that is enriched is to be enriched on behalf of all of mankind, and none of these facts depend upon any others. There's a mind in there! A self-perceiving miracle of reality! Of course it's precious beyond measure regardless of context, you dipshit!

We can celebrate great advances and exceptional performances without ignoring that we, as a whole, made these things possible too. And we can recognise that these things are valuable because of what they do for everyone, and that the more everyone there is the more valuable they are, and that in order for making life better for the worse off to matter the worse off themselves must matter, and that every life is worthy and every soul is sacred and the people using Lynn's technology to help with their disabilities or live hidden from those who wish them harm or resist the forces I'm talking about here are why the technology is a force for good in the first place.

But I weep for the fact that we have squandered almost all human potential across all of history in short-sighted power-seeking and arbitrary outgroup punishments, and everyone everywhere has suffered for it. Yes, even the stupid billionaires; they'd probably live longer if they hadn't stepped on the people who would have discovered the cure for whatever ends up killing them. Today's average well-off human knows riches that would be the envy of the kings of old, and the average human if none of this was a problem would know riches that would be the envy of the oligarchs of today.

Lives being lived in ways that diminish other lives are ideally changed minimally so that they no longer do (this is the maximisation of collective freedom) and consigned to any other fate only with great sorrow. Even if it is right to do so, I do not believe it is ever righteous. Even if it is not regrettable that it was done in the present, it is regrettable that the past produced a present that required it, and a future that does better should ever be sought.

Just...fucking stupid. That we're so willing impoverish ourselves so that some other people we don't like for no reason can be impoverished more. That the only thing keeping us from Star Trek (not just the spaceships but everything else too) is petty fucking spite (and physics but who knows what backdoor bullshit we could find to work around that).

That Lynn Conway's life, extraordinary and laudable as it was, was made smaller by this rank fucking idiocy. I do not aim to diminish her work by considering what it could have been. I aim to diminish the age she was forced to live in.

Rest in peace, Lynn. You deserved unfathomably, infinitely fucking better, and we are all richer for what you managed to pull off in spite of it all.

08th MS Team episode 9!

I'm not sure I made the right decision about the 08th Team (watching it)

THEY LET HIM BACK IN THE ARMY?? HELLO??

i honestly didn't think they'd bring blondie back either... this is wild.

me @ everyone in this season

"my boss can't be a spy he's too much of a fucking dumbass!"

LOVE when the robots do a funny punch

punched her head clean off (damn)

At some point I realized they're not going to kill off any of the characters this season and it kind of took away any sort of suspense.

There are no stakes anymore things are just happening. The only thing keeping me from fully checking out at this point is the gorgeous backgrounds..

everyone knows women are weak and need strong (infirmed) men to help them carry boxes.

but uh oh! Zeon is giving their soldiers Mystery Drug (no details on what it is or what it does) why even include this?? just to emphasize Zeon=Bad??

I ask this same question every single day.

yoooooooo this is just like Ike from Smashing Brothers!!!!!!!!

LOL

this is a clown show. They are just doing flips and shit. None of them understands how to read the newspaper.

Do you think he stood there the whole ride? (do these tanks only habve enough room for exactly 1 person each??) or do you think he got out as a little before they arrived like "this is gonna be so cool if when we show up I'm just standing on the hood and saluting"

oooooo they're in troubble they're gonna gtet grounded!!

I guess the drugs were an actually relevant plot point but like.... it feels really half-assed. Like surely they coulda done it better.

-

I don't undertsand I don't understand. Is this supposed to be the "actually both sides of war are human" season??? Is that why everyone so a stupid???

Led Zeppelin - Kashmir (Live from Celebration Day) (Official Video)

This person is different we have to be careful. He said you're trying to have him have a nightmare that he's eating his own special parts and was his people saying it and he said that you only had 20 nightmares his entire life they want help with stuff and they're giving his wife a heads up about the air here and the air conditioner is a piece of s***. And we figured it out too and we'll see you guys trying to force him to do it now we're going to come after you someone who's only had 20 nightmares this is quite literally nightmares you have to be careful even though he's only 55 years old he's smack dab in the middle of everybody. I saw him watching the show and he's watching this boob and he knows what he's up to I did figure it out but he seemed alarmed I tried to take action and then the movie I could see why he's a filthy pig and demands his way in and he was forcing me to retain my companies and he's acting like some sort of nitwit so I did figure out what he's doing and you can see in the movie did I tell you what those this guy knows what is up to but he's saying to him using me he's going to have me pose as his character Odin and inside that's fine because I'm going to kick his ass and he means me and I'm going to to weigh in there to see what this stupid son of a b**** is doing and we have to fully investigate he is a complete nonsense person her friend here says the robot computer could not take over and it was not allowed to if it took over Saturn it's isolated and he doubts it very strongly because it was the clan that took over and we saw them do it and David loses with that ai and we have defeated it even though he's not using the master program it's not meant to used it would be caught and taken over or stops quite easily on every occasion too early and this guy just does not seem to get this stuff and he's trying to beat him he's talking about it and he is a buffoon and he goes around and he rigs practically everything and it doesn't do anything and he's got idle time I think said them invading is going to be a huge distraction I'll tell you what if all of them invaded it would but they're going to do it slowly one in a blank group at a time and they're just going to be getting rid of themselves almost like to say we're getting back to you by getting rid of ourselves and people have time to get ready and they said that's what they're doing it's a filthy and it's a filthy waste of time and it might not do anything but they're going ahead with it and I guess we are too but there's some big problems

Anthony Hopkins

Some of the problems are we're going to take their ships and people are going after them not extremely aggressively and that's good one fine day will take them over and it'll be it and we do plan on doing it. There's other things that we have planned to do we're getting to them today we have a monstrous number of things lined up and we will start knocking them down and getting them done. One of them is to make sure this place doesn't flood again Tommy f is up and he noticed that the water is going down a little faster than normal today's high tide is coming up it'll be about a foot plus down from the high clam not even high tide and it was high tide for like 11 years at that watermark. And after today tomorrow it will be probably 2 ft down from the high clam it's about 1 ft 3 1/2 in and that's not too bad at low tide it's about 4 ft down and the mouth of the harbor is being disturbed right now by about three parties that are looking at this horn and we said 10% of it is uncovered and that's about right right now it's about 15%, the end of the day we think 20%, and they simply won't stop afterwards because they see it and they can tell it's very hard they're testing it and it's about two miles down so they're going to be drilling all sorts of things out there and you'll see that the harbor will be lowering quite swiftly and they do need it to be cleared no but they're doing it after today it will be clear and faster and that's the harbor and it's because of the river and the fact that the harbor is ripping muck out and it's a little bit better than we thought the middle is going to be clear the end of next week and it'll be clear for about 20 ft wide and that's outstanding right now about half of it will be clear by the end of the weekend in the middle but only like 3 ft wide that's going to be going real fast and pulling a lot of the muck out like a third of the month that's in there now I'll be out by Saturday night and that's the whole harbor that's outstanding he says usually it's out where we need it out and that's true too it's going to be affecting the middle and we really need it out and it is going to be moving out a third is huge and by the end of next week half of it that's there now and it will be down to about 3 ft by average or lower it is going to be good it will work and also the cavern in the front of the harbor by Friday tomorrow it will drop down to about 7 ft and 12 ft at the front end and it will speed up a fully dropped it'll be down about 18 ft and 25 ft what's coming up next week sometime this will drop 3 ft twice and we'll speed up dramatically and rip tons of the muck out and that's good it'll help a lot I can't believe they went through this with all that water also the canal and Guatemala and we feel that it will be opened possibly Monday the crabs are beginning to complain a lot and they will start moving and nothing will stop them they said hell or high water and they're going to move it they have huge groups talking about it in crab and they're saying it where the sun goes down and they hear the word and they realize it and they say a lot of people don't care about it because they want you to attack these guys and some of you don't like them and they said we noticed where and there's a bunch that don't like them so they think it's funny and they're going to try and go out there and have a better life and survive they're moving out and they are going to feel better so the turtle we think represents the crabs and Stan is the one who lifted the turtle out so we think that the guys think the crabs will go after Stan if properly bated they can't see anything and the crabs don't go into bunkers so we're wondering what the hell that is few other things and they can keep those crabs away and use them to attack you and that could be it and Stan said it's not a bad idea but risky and our son says and their minion and they'll just keep flowing in and they don't care about death certain number maybe but not half certainly and he says oh oh so he might do that more shortly

[tartrazeen]

Five Nights at Freddy's is stupid and Scott Cawthon is both a) a hack, and b) a creepy person in general who's actively donating to politicians that fight against the existence of ¾ of FNaF's fanbase.

Anyway, here's stuff I want to see happen in the series to fix it:

Make the original serial killer a separate character.

Apparently, there are two missing children incidents. Afton's also a guy who built robots (apparently) and then went on to spontaneously murder children. And also there was a "wound first inflicted on Henry" that started all of this off. And Afton started as a business guy in the books, not a robot guy. Also Afton's purple in the 8-bit minigames, and in the movie, he apparently already knew he would "always come back" before he got springlocked. And apparently "someone used the spare suit" back in FNaF 2 to do something bad.

Lots of pieces, right?

Bam - the first missing children incident was done by a completely separate serial killer. This guy went to Freddy's, found five kids before FNaF 2 took place, ran off with them, and who knows what happened.

But in the process of dealing with the kids, the serial killer also kills William Afton. Shoved Afton right into the spare springlock Bonnie suit, killed him, and that's what shut down FNaF 2. Why was William there? Pfft - idk, trying to save Freddy's in the wake of all those missing children, I guess, and working late to manage that side of the business.

What happens next? Henry hears about Afton's death, goes to inspect the animatronic, then finds out Afton's still alive - haunting the suit somehow. Henry (being the robot guy) finds a way to essentially rebuild Afton: using the remnant of this suit, he makes a new person-shaped endoskeleton for Corpse Afton to haunt instead. What does that look like? Like Purple Mike in Sister Location.

That means Afton's actually already been a corpse the entire time we've seen him. Purple Guy is purple because he's dead - like Mike, how he turned purple as he started rotting. If we think Afton is orange man from Midnight Motorist, that's also why he's orange: Afton isn't dead yet. But since Afton gets to walk around again, Henry and Afton make a deal to just like... pretend Afton never died, don't even worry about it, what a miracle this is.

Henry's got his own kid to worry about. This is where the remnant thing should end, because this could get dangerous really fast. Afton wants to keep experimenting. Henry doesn't. Afton needs Henry (since he's the robot guy) and decides to give Henry some motivation: he murders Charlie. That's why Charlie dies. Doesn't work in motivating Henry, but does become the first wound of Afton becoming a monster and starting all this.

What prompts it? Any of it? Probably the crying child's death, assuming that's Afton's kid: "I was saved so we need to find out how, and then I can put my son back together too. Henry, you gotta help me, look I even killed your kid so you have the same motivation. Move your ass."

So because Henry's ass is unmoved, Afton decides to start learning robotics himself. He starts killing kids to experiment on the whole haunting thing, and that's how the second missing kids incident happens, with corpses actually getting stuffed into suits to see if they can be haunted too. There's already a precedent for this incident anyway, so Afton has a built-in scapegoat to frame: the original serial killer.

Later on, Afton can come back to harvest the kids' remnant - and when he does, waking up the ghosts, he tries to hide in the original (not the spare; that was already used) SpringBonnie suit and gets springlocked. How does he know he'll come back? 'Cause he's already dead, so he knows how this works. He's not trying to get springlocked, but it's not the end for him.

ALL OF THAT happens because there was a totally separate killer at the beginning doing all the original killings. Afton seized on the opportunities presented as a result of that (including his own death/haunting/revival), but it doesn't just spontaneously appear in his head one day anymore, and he doesn't have to be retconned out of being 'the business guy'.

Glitchtrap is everything that was in the Blob.

I hate the idea of "hey, we uploaded spare parts from Springtrap or Scraptrap specifically to Help Wanted." Way better for Fazbear to be excavating the site for the Pizzaplex, come across the melted remains from the animatronics stuck in the FNaF 6, and upload all of that. It includes Scraptrap, but also Scrap Baby, Molten Freddy (which also has the missing children incident 2 kids), and the Puppet. It's their concentrated agony that turns into the Glitchtrap virus.

Why's that matter? 'Cause it stops Afton from being weirdly singled out, and it makes total sense to reuse all of that info. "Chica has seen everything," right? Great - now upload her memory and get an ultra-authentic FNaF 1 minigame. Oh no, we also included the agony of Suzy! Into the virus you go!

Afton's agony comes in with the game plan, like Baby does with Ennard. That's why Glitchtrap adopts the rabbit motif. But they're ultimately working as one mass of agonizing memories, going along with Afton's scheme to possess Vanessa and get back out into the real world again.

We get to have Afton back without such an obvious "UGH HE'S BACK" beating of a dead horse.

It also keeps Glitchtrap and the Mimic as separate entities too. There was lots of confusion around that and there doesn't need to be: make them separate, have Glitchtrap be the evil agony mentor, and have him be the brains to the Mimic's brawn.

Glitchtrap is in the Glamrocks and also Bonnie Bro.

The whole point of HW2 is showing Glitchtrap getting crushed by Vanny - after he gives Bonnie Bro all the voodoo dolls and reveals Bonnie Bro is now a staffbot.

Glitchtrap is in all the Pizzaplex's animatronics: from the Glamrocks to the staffbots to the wet floor signs. So when Vanny crushes him in HW2, sure, he's crushed, but he's already been copied into these other robots.

Hooray - now you can have Glitchtrap continuing to face off against Vanny as a Big Bad vs. Big Bad fight, and the Mimic can be the wild card Big Bad too. We finally get some variety instead of trying to copy and paste the same schtick over and over, and we don't even have to sacrifice the golden goose that is William Afton.

Also: surprise Cassie lmao your dad's been possessed too, get that mapbot into safe mode pronto

Make Baby and Sun/Moon work together.

I like Moon being a helpful, grabby guy who's happy to change sides. That tells me he doesn't care if he's helping Glitchtrap or Vanny. Why? 'Cause fuck 'em both, they both suck. Moon is a double-agent who's actually working with Baby.

Not shitty "ooh i'm so sexy aren't i daddy" Baby from the books and FNaF 6. That's Vanny's thing now. I mean Baby from Sister Location, who was doing a "free my people" revolution by busting the Funtimes out of there. And clowns gotta stick together, right? Right, Moon?

Eventually Moon's gonna reveal that a jester is not exactly a clown, because he is genuinely the wild card villain. He's just a funny little trickster guy, happy to do crime for the lols but always looking for the best time to sabotage someone else. Glitchtrap is taking over the Pizzaplex? Awesome, he'll hunt Gregory and grab Freddy. Vanny wants to crush Glitchtrap? Cool, he'll be the claw machine or whatever. Baby's just about to eradicate both Glitchtrap and Vanny for good? Lmao at your plan, get wrecked, Sun warned you and you didn't listen, nobody listens, Get Moon'd noob.

But I want this 'cause I am soooo tired of the Afton family drama. Baby has it out of her now, because let's say ScrapTrap was everything that connected to Elizabeth, and True Baby stayed within Ennard. And now she's back to rise up and fight these stupid humans who've been mistreating animatronics, and she's had Moon on her side the whoooole time.

(lol pranked)
