Monty didn’t attack Bonnie. Freddy did.

This post is not a joke: Ruin gives us enough clues to know that Bonnie was attacked by Freddy the day he disappeared, and Monty saw the attack.

Word count: 2457 words.

Yup, I wrote an entire essay with pictures to take the blame from a fictional gator that became my comfort character. If someone from Steel Wool is reading this: Yes, I’m ok, thanks for asking. If you want to send a cute Monty picture to my inbox, it is open and I’ll be all over the place if you do it.

Now, let me take you with me on this wild ride, because this theory fits the narrative of both Security Breach and Ruin so well that I have to clap at Steel Wool if it is actually correct and not me playing with the puzzle pieces incorrectly. So, here we go!

Bonnie, judging by the golden eyes and his travel pattern, was protecting someone like Freddy did with Gregory. Important damage was directed to the stomach hatch, where a kid could hide.

He has claw marks there, but Monty didn’t got his until the first was decommissioned and was then modified to play his bass.

The scratches in his hatch are green, but also the cracks over it. It looks like it is his base color instead of paint left by the attacker. The next video is from FazFriends, where they look at every single detail in the Ruin animatronic models. Their analysis are totally worth your attention if you like SB!

Monty has black nails, even before he was modified to play Bonnie’s bass. They also are kinda blunt, and the marks the attacker left seem more clean and sharp in the ends.

Now, there aren’t lots of animatronics that have claws. We have Roxy (and I’m guessing Foxy, if he ever existed as an animatronic different to her), The mimic/Burntrap, who doesn’t really seem an option because he’s slow and in life support in SB and sealed in Ruin, and… there’s Freddy. But, and here’s the twist, not normal Freddy, who couldn’t get through gates like Monty until he got his claws.

I’m talking about this thing.

Not only do we have environmental clues that confirm this attack, but also a key clue that wouldn’t make any sense otherwise.

Let’s start with the Prototype itself!

Check those claws. They are sturdy enough to survive all the damage this model has received, and extremely sharp at the end. Now compare Bonnie and its hand together…

It’s a perfect fit. The metal is a bit bent in the left, but if you could lower it, the finger length, the palm, even the distance and shape between the thumb and index are the same than the hole in Bonnie’s chest.

If that detail is true, all pieces of the narrative fit together. Here’s what happened, which I will explain further adding sources:

Monty saw Freddy’s prototype attacking Bonnie (who was in safe mode) in Gator Golf’s catwalks. The hurricane hole-in-one was activated, causing them both to fall. He could see the prototype losing its head and taking damage to its leg, but Bonnie was nowhere: he was either able to go back to Bonnie Bowl by himself using the distraction or the fall knocked him out and was dragged there, where he was heavily damaged.

This next part is not so clear, so I’ll give you my version of what I think happened that night: Bonnie alerted police that a kid was in danger. They show up, but Vanessa sent them away, claiming she was the only person there and it was a prank call (False Alarm message in SB). Vanny uses Bonnie’s trust on Freddy against him: she sends the prototype to go after the kid and him. He makes it to Monty’s, where the hurricane causes damage to the prototype, and is then finally attacked and disassembled behind his attraction to silence him and bury any clue or what happened (his parts are all over the place, one of his arms has weel marks, and Ruin follows the PQ ending where Freddy is disassembled. In SB, endos come out from the lines to attack us, and in Ruin we see the zone where his vanity is infested with STAFF robots, both in its normal version and in VR, where a giant STAFF robot is seen being dragged to a door while it leaves scratch marks on the floor).

Fazbear Entertainment pretended they actually looked for Bonnie and found nothing at all. As a final punishment for his disobedience he was actively being erased from existence: most of his art was removed, and some ask for a re-theme of his attraction (Re-theme SB message). They make Monty the main bassist, giving him his green room too.

These changes are being quickly pushed after his decommission: Bonnie still has power when we find him, Monty falls from the catwalks “a month ago” and snaps in half, a place where he goes every time he skips a performance (Monty Mischief SB message), people constantly ask for Bonnie and there isn’t an approved answer to give, the bowling alley still wasn’t given a re-theme after taking out most of Bonnie’s images.

Despite FazEnt efforts, Bonnie is remembered, specially by a depressed Monty.

His body was modified, he was given his bass, his glasses, his room, his role. The higher ups clapped thinking about the possibility of him being even more popular than Bonnie, his disappearance becoming yet another opportunity to make money.

And it was Freddy’s prototype’s fault. His normal life, the person he admired the most, his own body, were taken from him because of him.

From that day, and after getting new claws, his attitude becomes obsessive, endlessly searching for what was left of Bonnie after the rest gave up: destroying fences to explore the undergrounds, constantly missing shows and always being found in the catwalks, even after being snapped in half by the hole-in-one bucket, trying to guess where his body was. His last known location was his attraction, so he should still be there somewhere, isn’t it?

Let me repeat this: he prefers looking for Bonnie in the catwalks even at risk of his own integrity than performing.

There are more details that show us he does care for him: there are four official images left of Glamrock Bonnie in the PizzaPlex, three of them in Monty’s ride, the last one at the entrance of his own attraction, where some animations can still be seen. These cutouts are in perfect shape, while Freddy’s is light off.

There is also a headless Freddy statue that once you go to FazerBlast screams “prototype”.

It looks like it’s been decapitated by a hurricane, some “cables” coming out of its head like the prototype, which has cables coming out of its neck.

This damage couldn’t have been caused by the earthquake: the head should had fallen to the ground instead of being pinned on the hurricane. Plus, it doesn’t match the theme of the ride, based on cutouts, and while the rest of the elements are placed in scenarios and their composition is clearly studied, this statue breaks the symmetry of the hurricane’s eye element, that is supposed to give you the illusion that you are entering its eye and being pushed out to the main attraction.

What’s more, in a story exclusively about Monty’s past and how he became a solo bassist in the PizzaPlex thanks to Bonnie, attracting the same amount of people than the Glamrocks themselves, a Freddy statue at the end doesn’t make any sense sense at all… Unless it was put there with a very particular purpose.

I like to think it’s part of an environmental story telling from Steel Wool, specially when you read the rest of clues together.

There’s more to say about this statue than the lack of a head: look at its leg damage, and how it matches the prototype’s heavily damaged one, and how the hand that is visible reflects the light making it look like it has long claws despite Freddy having short ones like the rest of the band.

It also has two blue long lines through his chest that resemble the ones in Bonnie’s.

If you still have doubt about how it is part of a scene representing the night of the attack, then you should know there is an easter egg here: if you follow the part of the tornado that goes up, you can see a Bonnie cutout at the very top of it. He’s far away from the rest of the scene and he looks like if he was being knocked by the tornado. If you zoom to look at his face, you can see he has a worried expression.

Monty didn’t destroy any of the images of Bonnie or his previous iterations, not the cutouts, not this poster, not the bass that belonged to him, even after causing damage to his room.

There is a detail in Gator Golf that is easy to miss: An intact poster of the original Bonnie near a log he uses as a hideout in Ruin (we see him quickly going out of it when we approach it).

He looks similar to the illustration at the entrance of Bonnie Bowl, but this image is not very charming. He looks half dead, yeah...? If you then go to Bonnie’s, some big screens are still on and advertising pizza. When you wear the mask, they change to a glitched version of the Bonnie animation, where his eyes go blank in a similar way to this poster.

This spot couldn’t have been used by Vanny: it is decorated exactly like the rest of Gator Golf in the base game, which ends with us saving Vanessa and exiting the PizzaPlex together.

The poster also has a drawing of Freddy stuck on it. In this chapter you can also find the Bonnie’s piñata collectible, the first time we can see his Glamrock design and the first clue of him having suffered an attack (it has a big gash in his chest).

He could have easily taken it down if he wanted, specially when it is so close to his hideout and he’s in such a volatile state, but he keeps it right beside it.

But the real Freddy (or, at least, things that resemble him) seems to cause some kind of reaction even in the base game, yes?

The most common example in Security Breach is the arcade version of Monty’s Gator Golf. There are two possible readings for it, depending on if you think it represents Monty’s mind or if you think it has been hacked to change his behavior.

Hole 1 depicts Freddy separated from the group, a big distance between them. Hole 9 shows him in a dumpster, and Chica, Roxy and Monty playing together. He’s never part of the group, so either Monty hates him or he was hacked so he would hate him, right?

But the main show were he looks happily at him while playing, the fact that he never attacks him even after being hacked, the presence of images of him on other holes all perfectly light and ok like this balloon, and the eye color difference between Hole 1 and 9, make me think Steel Wool is trying to tell us a way different story.

The Freddy in the dumpster is the only one with golden eyes. Hole 9 represents what is happening the night we play as Gregory, the AR part of the AR-cade, and of the main reasons the Monty taking down theory was so popular.

That night, Roxy, Chica and him are working on finding the kid to the point that their cases crack and get dirty, while Freddy not only glitched at the start of the show hours before, but is now also walking around the PizzaPlex doing NOTHING instead of helping (apparently).

It’s the animatronic equivalent of a group project were one of the members does nothing, so you have to do their part and then they show up and are praised. It makes sense he would be angry at the situation and think he’s trash, but even so, there are no real confrontations between them.

But what about Hole 1, then? The answer is the fireflies. There are some fireflies at the left part, but the right, where Freddy is looking, has other set of lights. If you calculate the distance from Chica to him, the center is almost where the hole is, the part of the arcade that is supposed to drag your attention. Having an empty space there feels uncomfortable and a very questionable decision from whomever designed the scene, but if this one is a reflection from reality or Monty’s current mind state, why aren’t Freddy’s eyes gold?

Well, I don’t think he is separated from his band.

I think someone is missing from the picture instead.

Bonnie was erased from the Arcade.

As it was said, these changes were quick and non-planned: they deleted his model from the arcade, but had no time to move and reprogram the positions of the rest of the characters so the space between them was filled. As a consequence, when you play this level, your attention is taken from the hole to the distance between them.

It is void, awkward, it makes you uncomfortable. You know something is missing, but you can’t quite tell what it is yet. It makes you wish there was one more character there even before you knew there actually was.

Once you learn what happened, how his story ties to the place this scenario represents, the void he left in Freddy and Monty specifically, Hole 1 gains a new meaning, and it hits you. When you go back to the PizzaPlex as Cassie and play the arcade, there’s no joy left there. No fireflies, no Glamrocks, just ruins. Two pairs of red eyes and a pile of Nightmare STAFF bots. That’s all that’s left.

But if you still need one more clue to convince you that the prototype was the one that attacked Bonnie, then let me tell you there is a final one that wouldn’t make sense otherwise:

The AR collectibles dialogue.

Cassie always makes a commentary about the things she finds: Monty’s AR plushie being very glitchy, how she wants to add Roxy’s one to her collection, how the her father wouldn’t tell her why they replaced Bonnie and how he was his dad’s favorite…

But she also asks him what happened to him, and gets an answer when she gets the last collectible.

The AR Golden Bonnie is hidden in Bonnie Bowl, next to a Wet Floor Sign bot.

She hasn’t been to Fazer Blast yet.

But the description answers the question that she asked him: a prototype.

Bonnie was decommissioned by Freddy’s prototype.

And the only ones that know are a kid lead to her death that can hear his agony through the Wet Floor Bots and unreal collectibles, and an animatronic blamed for his death and told he’ll never be him, obsessed with his loss and with finding whatever is left of the person that he admired the most and helped him become the star he once was.

Here's a prompt: the mimic in the basement TRULY THINKS that it's Gregory, and when Cassie declares that it isn't, it starts to have an existential crisis/panic attack about its identity and what it is.

Here we go with tumblr generated prompt number 14! For the sake of this AU, Gregory was completely uninvolved in the Mimic’s imprisonment and doesn’t even know it’s down there. I took this in a softer, more hopeful direction.

Identity Issues

Cassie climbed through the hole the forklift had made, looking around the dark room. “Gregory?” she called.

“Cassie!” he said, off to her left, only… his voice… “I’m so glad to see you!”

She hesitated. His voice sounded… off. Glitchy, almost.

“I’ve been stuck down here for so long,” he complained, that odd fizzy crackle not going away. “I can’t tell you how bored I’ve been.”

Peering into the darkness, Cassie found a pair of glowing red eyes staring back at her. She sucked in a startled breath and stumbled back, nearly tripping over the rubble she’d caused.

“Cassie?” the thing that wasn’t Gregory said. “Are you okay?”

The eyes suddenly rose in the air, and Cassie became very aware that the robot was much taller than her. It came closer, creaking slightly but not heavy-footed the way the animatronics were.

It emerged into the meager light spilling out of the hole in the wall. Cassie tensed, preparing to run. It had a similar build to the endoskeletons she’d encountered, just bare, plain metal forming the most basic human shape. It’s head and face were more humanized than the endos, and it—maybe it was an odd thing to take notice of, but—it wasn’t symmetrical. Its feet didn’t match, or its legs or hands.

It looked… homemade.

Her friend’s voice, with only that little digital tinge to show that it wasn’t the real deal, came out of it. “Something on my face?” it asked, amused. “I bet I look like I’ve been rolling around in the dirt, huh?”

It even sounded like something Gregory would say; it knew his personality, had been near-perfectly mimicking him all night. The only out-of-character moments had been things she’d attributed to the stress of the situation.

“Yeah,” she said slowly. Should she point out that it wasn’t Gregory? Did it think she was fooled? Would it attack her if it thought the game was up? Cassie clutched her flashlight tightly and shuffled her feet, uncertainty make her heart pound.

In the end, it wasn’t her choice to make.

Her walkie-talkie clicked. “Cassie? Cassie, are you there? Can you hear me?”

The robot sort of flinched backward, and even though it had no facial expressions, she thought it seemed shocked.

Raising the walkie-talkie, Cassie said, “Yeah, yeah, I hear you.”

A rush of breath left Gregory. “Holy hell, Cassie, just give me a heart attack next time! I’ve been trying to get a hold of you all night! What are you doing in the pizzaplex? It’s not safe there anymore, believe me.”

She wanted to ask if he was the real Gregory. But apparently there was no way to trust a voice without seeing the body it came from.

She didn’t get the chance to answer because the robot asked, “Why does that sound like me? Who is that?”

It occurred to Cassie that maybe, possibly, crazily, the robot wasn’t trying to fool her. That, as unlikely as it sounded, it actually thought it was Gregory.

“It’s my friend,” she said gently. “My friend Gregory.”

“But—I’m Gregory.”

Gregory interrupted, “Not loving the radio silence here, Cassie. Where are you? I’m following your path of destruction—I’m so proud, by the way, baby’s first destruction of property—but like, you’re way farther in than I expected. And I could skip this walk down memory lane if you’d just tell me where you are.”

“I’m Gregory,” the robot whispered, hunching in on itself. It shuffled its feet, uncertain, and fiddled with its hands. They were shockingly human habits, though she’d never seen Gregory look so fragile and confused. “I’m—I’m sorry,” she said quietly. “But you aren’t.” Its red eyes flickered and dulled, and it lowered its head. Into her walkie-talkie, she said, “I’m in these weird tunnels beneath the raceway.”

There was a fumbling noise, and then Gregory burst out, “In the buried pizzeria?! Get out of there, Cassie, geez! There’s a freaky wire-y blob monster down there that will try to eat you if you disturb it!”

Cassie critically examined the pitiful robot in front of her. It didn’t read as a blob monster, whatever that meant. And it didn’t seem inclined to eat her. It was just watching her, somehow radiating sadness.

“Unrelated, but that night you spent here, did you manage to accidentally convince a robot it was you?” she asked, ignoring his panic. Giving a robot identity issues of that caliber seemed like the sort of thing Gregory was capable of.

“Uh—no? Why?”

Lowering her walkie-talkie for the moment, Cassie inched closer to the robot, tensing despite its lack of anger or aggression. “Hey,” she said, and it looked up at her with dim golden eyes that almost looked clouded over. They were much softer than the red, and even kinda pretty in their own way. “You might not be Gregory, but that’s not a bad thing. I mean, I wouldn’t want to be Gregory.”

It wrapped its arms around its torso—which was really just a thick metal bar and a pair of hydraulic cylinders—in a hug for itself. “But I don’t know how to be anyone else. I only remember being Gregory.”

Cassie realized too late that she’d squeezed her walkie-talkie, turning on the microphone. And she realized it because Gregory said, “Wait, was that—was that my voice? Did—did you find a robotic clone of me?”

She shouldn’t have been surprised that he sounded excited about that.

But thank goodness he was as weird as he was, because rather than get upset or freaked out, Gregory cackled and cried, “I want to meet him!”

Cassie peeked up at the robot, curious about how it would respond. And enough of Gregory’s… everything must have carried over, however that had happened, because it correctly read the silent question in her eyes.

“I’d… like to meet him,” it said haltingly. “I—I can feel it now. It’s like… a mask. And now I know where the edges are, but there’s nothing underneath. I am no one.”

“Well, then maybe Gregory and I could help you decide who you are underneath, without any mask at all. And in the meantime,” she sighed internally, “I bet Gregory would be thrilled to have someone just like him who’s willing to help him prank people.”

Its eyes brightened, and yeah, it was unfortunately a lot like Gregory.

“We’ll meet you in the raceway,” Cassie said into her walkie-talkie. And then she bravely held her hand out to the robot. “C’mon, let’s get out of here. It’s gross down here, and you really do look like you’ve been rolling around in the dirt.”

The robot laughed with Gregory’s voice, and it was remarkably gentle when it took her hand.

AHHH I DIDN'T THINK ANYONE WOULD ASK ABOUT MY CHARACTERS I'M SO SORRY!!

This is outrageous behavior on my end,,, so I've compiled a master list of the characters included in the 10th anniversary post! Just in case anyone else wanted to learn a bit more about the OCs involved in it!

I totally didn't have to draw her a new reference because of the fact that the one I was using was outdated and didn't have the pattern I changed it to in a different, unfinished piece.

This is Cotton! She's a Security Breach OC I made around 2022 ish? It's been a while. I mainly made her as a pseudo self insert, she's a very self indulgent character of mine because I got tired of trying to CONFORM and deny my Cringy rights.

>>>EDIT I FORGOT TO MENTION A COUPLE NON PLOT RELATED THINGS FOR COTTON: Mechanics wise Her eyes are LED screens so she can change expressions (and eye colors) at will. Her main feature though is her voice box, since it allows her to mimic the voices of the Animatronics at the Pizzaplex! She likes to use it to calm children down, by pretending their favorite Pizzaplex animatronic is calling them through her and giving a few in character words of encouragement! Of course, this kind of voicebox is primarily meant to play soothing lullabies to lull children to sleep, since her area used to be riight under Sun and Moon's balcony, and it was meant to be a naptime nook with a bunch of pillows and lots of glow in the dark stars. That's about it for the edit though, I just forgot those last couple of details for her.

Story wise, she's the assistant to the Daycare Attendants Sun and Moon, she just helped around the Daycare a lot. A lotta fluff there since they were in a very lovey dovey kinda relationship until an accident at the Daycare caused her to be permanently removed and any records of her completely wiped from the Pizzaplex's system. She lives under the Pizzaplex now in that area where you find all the Endos, there's a section in this kinda AU where they shoved all the equipment from the old Daycare into ("The old Daycare" being the one we see in the Trailers for Security Breach).

~~~~~

Alright, the next two characters in that post are Dolly and Alice (Dolly being the cat and Alice being the bunny/hare). Both are Security Breach redesigns for characters I've had even longer than Cotton, and their stories are not as fleshed out unfortunately. At least in Security Breach the idea was that they both ran a section of the Pizzaplex that was a roller skating rink, it had two floors (the second overlooking the rink itself, kinda like a balcony? I don't know how to explain it) and it's very cool and awesome. Mechanics wise they're both pretty speedy, and when Gregory manages to dismantle them Freddy obtains Dolly's roller skates and Alice's hearing/ears. Essentially, speed boost from Dolly and you hear a little jingle when you're near an item while inside of Freddy, their whole area is entirely optional from my perspective since they're kinda like DJMM where they don't have any real plot relevance.

~~~~~

Just in case these are also the original designs for Dolly and Alice! They're both a part of a smaller spinoff Fazbear's location set around the same time as FNAF 2 ish (mainly saying that because they're loosely based off of the Toy animatronics)? Dolly's design is based off of some Carhop designs I saw some years ago, because she is a Carhop at this location (She's supposed to "skate" up to parked cars to take their orders and then deliver the food when it's ready.) Alice's design is meant to be a family friendly version of Hooters, mainly because I couldn't think of a different design idea for her. She's the Animatronic that skates around indoors, same type of job as Dolly, just indoors. The location concept wise anyways is about as large as the original FNAF 1 location (which is to say not at all).

~~~~~

That's about it in terms of characters? The only other character in that post is Sun/Sundrop but that's more or less just my design for the character since I wanted to make him look more cohesive with Cotton's design (since they're meant to be a pair if that makes sense). I have to update Sun/Moon's references BUT I do have an MS Paint shitpost of Moon in the updated outfit so I'll leave it below. (it's mainly a joke but this is quite possibly the only proper reference i have for the outfit so you'll have to bear with me here.)

~~~~~

UPDATE NUMBER 2: Heyyyy it's me, back at this post because I wanted to update it to mention that I actually finished their references! Their... second batch of references... Yes I put Cotton in there again, mainly because I wanted a height reference (and it's somewhat also in reference to their older ref sheet.

There's also a Nighttime/Dark alt to said ref because I wanted to show off their glow in the dark, since yeah Moon and Cotton glow in the dark. How does that work? Hell if I know, I just think it's cute, cut me some slack here!

FNAF Conan thing Part 1

Take the basic premise of Security Breech. Freddy Fazbear's Pizzaplex opens up. People start going missing. Add two addendums. 1) This takes place in Beika and 2) the Pizzaplex is smaller, with only one star animatronic, Freddy. The Shounen Tantei get involved when a classmate hires them to look into the disappearance of a friend who was going to sneak into the Pizzaplex. The kids go to investigate and are quickly distracted by the Pizzaplex itself. Conan digs enough to find out there is something very wrong here. He calls Agasa to pick up the kids, but asks him to have something in the car that would take up an entire seat - an excuse for the kids to leave without him, on the understanding that Agasa will pick him up after they're dropped off. That is very much not the plan. Conan starts sneaking around, and while in the maintenance room, hides in Freddy's stomach hatch. This leads to him meeting Freddy the same way Gregory does in the game. Freddy agrees to help him, and together they discover the owner of this particular franchise is dressing up like a rabbit mascot to kidnap children who either enter unattended or to lure children inside for him to take. And along the way Conan realizes Freddy's too...aware to be just a robot. When he has an existential crisis about identity from seeing some endo skeletons Conan comes to the conclusion that Freddy is basically an awakened AI who hasn't quite realized that fact.

They find the children still alive, but in rough shape. Freddy is in the process of freeing them when he hears someone coming. He instinctively shoves Conan inside his cake storage unit. It's the owner. Freddy confronts him about the children and the condition they were in. The manager states that 'their suffering was ripe enough to be harvested' and tries to shut Freddy down. Freddy resists, knocking him out. Freddy and Conan get the kids out of there and call the police. Conan asks what will happen to Freddy and Freddy says if he's not taken in as evidence he will probably have his memory wiped and installed at a different location. And at this point Conan can't let that happen. As an emergent AI he's aware. And letting him get wiped feels like killing him. Freddy points out that without the Fazbear recharge stations he'll run out of power, but Conan says that it's okay - he knows a guy. Conan convinces the other kids involved to hide that Freddy was there so he won't get taken away, Knowing Freddy saved then, they eagerly agree. Police and medical crews come to pick up the kids. But when the police try to enter the Pizzaplex it explodes. No one was hurt, aside from the owner still inside. Agasa is used to Shinichi pulling shenanigans on him, but trying to hide and retrofit a theme restaurant animatronic is a bit of an odd task, even for him. But as he talks with Freddy he, like Conan, realizes the animatronic is truly sapient. He can easily fix the power source issue, but not so much making it so Freddy can walk around in public. But it's okay - he knows a guy. A little while later the Mouri's are introduced to Conan's father - Edogawa Fred. Fred is much taller and more built than and average person. But because they're not springing this on Conan it goes a lot better than Fumiyo's introduction - with Conan actually recognizing his 'father' and being happy to see him. (Unplanned for, but this starts a train of thought about how Conan acts around each of his parents, it's a marked difference) Fred explains to Kogoro that the reason he hasn't been around was two fold. The first was that he was a lot more injured in the accident than Fumiyo and required more surgery and physical therapy and the second was at the time of the accident he and Fumiyo had been at the start of a very bitter divorce, and had made the joint decision to leave Conan where he was safe and wouldn't have to witness it or worry about being caught in the middle. ((This actually wins Kogoro over. He saw what the separation between him and his wife did to Ran, and can't blame this man for trying to spare his son that.) So Edogawa Fred (or Fredogawa as he becomes known) stays around. He gets a job as a performer and manages to afford a small apartment for himself. Conan still stays with the Mouri's but Fred is playing the role of Dad to a hilt and makes sure he's always available to Conan, sometimes picking him up at school or taking him and the other kids on outings. Now the Kudo's were informed someone needed a new identity and would be playing the role of Conan's father. That's fine. What they didn't expect was the person to stick around and act like a father any more than Fumiyo acted like a mother. So now they're curious and want to meet this person. They arrange a flight for the two (private to get around the passport issue) but the plane encounters problems and has to land in California. It's going to take a few days to repair, so Conan and Freddy decide to find something to occupy their time. It turns out this town has it's very own PizzaPlex, with an even bigger cast. So why not check it out? Freddy is curious about what his life would have been like if his manager had not been an insane killer. And really, it's not like such a thing could happen twice?

Whatever Happened to Dr. Rabbit

Hello, one and all. I'm IrysGundam005, and I see everything.

So, I've got a theory for you all. Thanks to the end of HW2, it seems that Vanny is still kicking around. Considering that it's implied that the Princess Quest ending is the cannon ending of Security Breach, that means that Van-Van is most likely her own rabbit free of Vanessa and working on her own terms.

However, as we know, Vanessa wasn't the only one possessed by Glitchtrap. Gregory himself has been heavily hinted to have fallen under the thrall of the golden rabbit but was freed through some means. If so, then that just begs a question.

Where the hell did Dr. Rabbit go?

After all, if Vanny is still kicking around, can't the same be said for him? One of the Tales from the Pizzaplex books implies that separate personalities like this can remain even after being separated from the original. And while apparently that was between a actual person and a split personality, it can still be applied to those possessed by AIs.

So where the hell did he run off to?

Well, I think we've been looking at him the entire time.

He is in the Daycare Attendant!

Specifically, he has latched onto the Moon. His what's causing Moon to behave so weird and aggressive.

And there are a few reasons I point to DC and Moon in particular.

1: Gregory's personal Princess Quest game, the Balloon World game, is in the Daycare Attendant's private room. Considering that we see endoskeletons that have been taken apart littering the place, this was probably another room for Gregory in the Pizzaplex while he was living there as GGY. He was using the DC to gather up endos for him to rip apart and study.

2: Moon is a predominately blue and white character with star patterns on his pants. Gregory's clothing is predominately blue and white, and what does Freddy call him? A Super"star"!

3: I've heard Moon described as a "scrunkly gremlin jester". Do you know who else that can apply to? Gregory. He is a scrunkly little gremlin, and as far as being a jester is concerned, I have come to believe that his Dr. Rabbit costume was most likely inspired by Circus Bonnie. There are a lot of reasons why.

*The color scheme of Circus Bonnie matches both Gregory and Moon. He is a predominately blue and white-character. He has two stripes on each of his ears akin to Gregory's shirt. He carries around an orange accessory like Gregory with his Faz-Watch. In this case, it's a carrot wand with a star-shaped tip. Now what has Gregory been described as? Both "The Wizard's Most Favored Apprentice" and a "Superstar". In addition, Circus Bonnie has bells attached to his ears like the Daycare Attendant have on their body. Even Circus Bonnie's purple eyes could be a subtle nod to Glitchtrap.

*The Circus Animatronics were released around the time RUIN was gearing up to be released and were supposed to have a teaser for it in RUIN itself.

*The Jester theme fits in with the medieval fantasy motif of the Princess Quest game (Vanessa the Princess, Glitchtrap the Wizard, and Gregory the Jester). Since Jesters were entertainers for the ruling monarchs, you could think of it as Gregory entertaining Glitchtrap (who is the Mimic's AI copying William Afton) by being forced to live out Glitchtrap's fantasies (i.e., the Another David theory).

*Gregory is an accurate representation of the Fool Tarot (jesters were often called "fools") and the word "gestour" to which Jester originates is a word that means either "minstrel" or "storyteller". The story GGY, which confirmed Gregory was Patient 46, was included in the same volume of the Tales from the Pizzaplex books as The Storyteller. The Storyteller was the story that introduced both the titular device (the Mimic's head uploaded into a white tiger bust and then installed in an artificial baobab tree) and the character of Edwin Murray. The one who created the Mimic in the first place. Also. The Fool Tarot is often represented by either a jester or a young man with a white animal companion.

*The Mimic in the final epilogue was last seen trapped in a Springlock Jester costume.

4: A lot of Moon's in-game collectibles are found in locations I believe are heavily associated with Gregory.

*Moon Action Figure: Is in the Build-A-Mangle Room. This is significant as I believe Gregory was taken around the time of the Curse of Dreadbear DLC timeline-wise).

*Moon Plushie: It is found in the sunken ship in the Kid's Cove section which seemed to be another living space Gregory had.

*Golden Moon Plush: It is in the Daycare Attendant's private room. Which, again, is where Gregory probably lived and is where the arcade game that kept his mind held is. *EDIT: Here's a new one for you. The Sun action figure is found in a room that is very similar to the start-up screen for The Curse of Dreadbear DLC. Not Moon, but still a DCA connection. 5: Whenever Moon is unleashed during the hourly recharges, Gregory's vision gains a blue taint. Do you know who else messes with Gregory's vision? Vanny. Considering that Gregory most likely has an occipital transponder chip in his head (which would have allowed Glitchtrap to take control over him), Vanny's mask most likely has something in it that's causing his vision to get messed up thanks to that chip. Moon is most likely doing the same as well. And why would he? Because if Dr. Rabbit is possessing him, the AI most likely added something onto Moon to cause that effect. Or Rab himself could cause it by his presence alone.

6: Moon behaves in a rather creepy and eerie fashion. In the Retro CDs, Gregory, while he was under the control of the Mimic, was said to like eerie things more than entertaining ones. Backed up further by the fact that, while Moon's plushie depicts him with one red eye and one blue eye, Moon is only ever seen with either two red eyes or (as is the case in the Princess Quest Ending for HW2) solid black eyes. The Moon action figure, which is found in the Build-A-Mangle Room, has two black eyes.

7: Moon's jumpscare is rather mild compared to everyone else. All he does is just wiggle his fingers at Gregory and leers at him. No indication that he causes him physical harm. And Gregory's vision clears up unlike with Vanny's jumpscare where the red only intensifies. Why is that? If Moon is possessed by Dr. Rabbit, then the latter is most likely trying to reunite with his host. And the blue clearing up is Dr. Rabbit regaining control over his host.

EDIT: Okay. So I decided to watch Moon's jumpscare again, and it looks like Gregory's vision doesn't clear up. However, that said, this point still applies, as the same happens with Vanny as well.

8: Moon is thus far, the only one of the new animatronics to receive a Halloween variant: Jack-O-Moon. Remember what I said about being taken around the time of the Curse of Dreadbear DLC? What was that themed around again? This also ties back into the first point: his design is inspired by the Eclipse we see in the Balloon World game. The same game housing Gregory's mind.

EDIT: Also in regards to this part. The portions of HW2 Jack-O-Moon shows up in? Glitchy and purple.

9: Tieing into Point 5, Moon is the only enemy capable of dragging Gregory out of Freddy. Chica, Roxy, and Monty won't even so much as touch Freddy even if Gregory jumps into him right in front of them. But Moon will go for Gregory inside of Freddy. This indicates that he knows Gregory is in there. Possibly because Rab would know his old host is hiding inside of Freddy. This would also explain why Vanny knows to check in there as well. She most likely worked with Rab, and thus, would know his host's hiding habits.

10: Playing off of Point 9, Moon is also the only animatronic to show outward aggression towards Freddy. Based on what we hear when Gregory is hiding inside the recharge station, it's possible that Moon outright attacked Freddy before dragging him into Parts and Services. If Rab is infecting Moon, it's possible he held some resentment over his former host and favorite animatronic teaming up against him.

11: In one of the Retro CDs, the first therapist mentions things related to the Daycare. She uses phrases such as "time out" and "troublemaker".

12: This one is a minor point, but is note worthy. Moon is typically depicted as having one of two coloration. The first is having both eyes red. The second is having one eye red, the other blue. I bring this up because at the end of HW2, he is shown with completely black eyes. The only time his shown with black eyes? His action figure. And where is the collectible of that found? In the Build-A-Mangle Room. And while his eyes are closer to amber in-game, other depicts of Gregory show his eyes being closer a dark-brown that boarders on black.

It is because of all this, that I believe that Dr. Rabbit is most likely inside of the DC and is influencing Moon. I think what happened is that one day, Moon got a little too curious for his own good and decided to play the Balloon World game, accidentally freed Gregory, and Rab jumped ship into the DC because, as a purely mechanical being, he can be taken over without the need of an occipital transponder chip. Either that, or whatever event that caused Rab to separate from Gregory most likely left him stuck in the Balloon World game, and then one day, Moon played it and he latched onto him. In either case, Moon is now under the influence of Dr. Rabbit and is effectively his new host. Which, if true, then this explains the ending to HW2 and Moon's presence as the claw that delivers Glitchtrap to Vanny.

If Rab and Vanny are both freed from Gregory and Vanessa, then the two may have decided they are sick and tired of "Daddy Glitchtrap" and have teamed up to take him out. As we see with the ending to HW2 to with Rab delivering Glitchtrap's remaining code to Vanny so she can squash him. After all. Just because Dr. Rabbit was described as the wizard's most favored apprentice, doesn't mean it's outside the realm of possibilities that he has grown bitter towards Glitchtrap/Mimic following his separation from Gregory, and has decided to stop being an apprentice and started being a wizard himself. Not helped by the fact that I imagine being stuck in a body with the Sun and Moon hasn't helped his mood.

But hey, that's just my theory. Let me know what you think. :)

EDIT: On a side note, while thinking about this theory, I realized there is a subtle bit of brilliance to a character called Dr. "Rabbit" possessing a character called "Moon".

In East Asian mythology, there is the myth about the Moon rabbit. In Chinese mythology specifically, the rabbit (known as the Jade Rabbit) is the companion of the Moon goddess Chang'e, and is constantly pounding the elixir of life for her. You wanna know what can be considered an elixir of life in FNAF? Remnant. Metal infused with emotion and memory that can grant life to both animatronics and give immortality as shown with Michael.

EDIT: I would also want to point something out. Although Dr. Rabbit is described as being "the wizard's most favored apprentice", that doesn't mean he didn't feel the scorn of Glitchtrap on occasion. Much like how Elizabeth was William's golden child but he still abused her, it's entirely possible Rab suffered under Glitchtrap as well. It's just that unlike Elizabeth, Rab had an alternative person he could side with. One who probably hated Glitchtrap just as much as he grew to. And that person is Vanny.

Dad…? – Dad!William x Son!Reader

So, I got inspired by the FNaF fan game called "The Glitched Attraction" and I thought I could write a small Oneshot. I am not back sadly, my motivation is low and I have been gone for a while now, but as I promised I will post drafts and small things I still have not published. This is an Au of mine where Gregory ain't a robot but is related to the Afton Family. I know about the Theories and all, but I just wanted to make it a bit more wholesome. Please don't kill meh. Q-Q

Dexter is Reader

Dexter got a message about a challenging game. So far he made it, but he doubted that is friend texted him. Alex, his best bud, wrote him about this FNaF attraction thing. There were 7 stages and they all were kinda like an escape room game.

Dexter only gave it a try, because he hoped to find his long missing Father. With his Brother, Michael, gone…he was the only one to find his Father. Michael died in the Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza Place location, his own restaurant, because it was light on fire. He didn’t make it out in time… Just like Uncle Henry Emily.

Dexter wants his Dad back… Since he was gone, Dexter’s life went downhill. His Girlfriend left him, admitting that she just wanted into his Dad’s pants for money, he had a cat that his Father gifted him that died unexpectedly, Evan didn’t make it through his Coma and died, the house he inherited is getting very expensive, Dexter just recently lost his job too and now Michael is…gone too.

Mike had more luck then Dexter, which Dexter was jealous about. Mike had a child. Sadly Dexter found out that his Girlfriend threw the boy out and he couldn’t find him anywhere, otherwise he would have taken care of his Nephew…

Dexter felt like a failure since his Father went missing.

He ran out of the room from Michael’s Pizzeria replica.

“Scraptrap still sits there…good.”, Dexter murmured and rushed outside.

He had REPEL on the whole time to keep Scrapbaby away from him. He heard the vents and he quickly ran to the right one and pulled the lever multiple times to flash Molten Freddy. After he left, Dexter ran back inside and put the last 2 pieces of the flyer together. He let Helpy look over it and after he cheered another door opened and he quickly grabbed the chain cutter and ran like the Devil was chasing him.

He quickly cut the chains on the doors and then pushed them open. Then he ran for it and soon reached 2 doors to an underneath location. He opened them and climbed down the latter.

“What is this…?”

Dexter followed the walls and looked if any door opened, but nope…that was until the last one at the end of the hall. It opened and a beeping filled his ears. He went inside the room and looked around.

‘What the hell is this…?’

Dexter looked to his right and saw a big container looking thing standing there.

‘Is this a Lab ?’

He went over to the Computer and turned off the beeping that was caused because of Human Motion. Then he read 3 things…

‘Blueprints…Bin and…rem.dco…What is that ?’

He clicked on the rem.doc and read it.

“A body…Remnant…The fuck…?”, he whispered confused.

Then he remembered the terrifying Video from the tape that he found in the secret lab in the Warehouse and the instructions on the white boards.

He clicked it off and then read the Blueprints, which shocked him. Then the Human Motion turned on again. Dexter stepped away from the Computer, someone grabbed the back of his head and he turned around. He saw a white bunny mascot with red eyes and it swung a Baseball bat at his head.

He groaned and fell down, dazed.

It grabbed him and then started to drag him. After he came to, he saw an Endo Skeleton and on the other side he saw the Charging Station he read about. He saw a bunny looking Animatronic in there. Then the Rabbit appeared in his face again with a knife.

It prepared everything to take his life, until the rabbit let out a screech and pointed at itself and then at Dexter. The white Bunny left Dexter be and then filled the Charging Station with red smoke.

‘Is that Remnant ?’

Then the doors opened and out stepped the Rabbit, chuckling darkly. It had a dead body with itself and Dexter gulped, then took a closer look at the Animatronic and he gasped.

He shakily stood up.

“Springbonnie ?”, Dexter asked and pointed at the broken Animatronic.

It stopped and stared at him. It cooked its head and nodded.

“But…how…? Father said he destroyed you since the bite… WAIT ! Do you perhaps know where Dad is ?”, Dexter asked.

It only cooked its head further.

“You know… your Creator ? William Afton ? Do you know where he is ? I have been searching him for years now… Michael wouldn’t help me find him and now he is dead. I am the only one remaining…”

The Animatronic stared at Dexter with wide eyes and its head was straightened again.

“Dext..er ?”, it asked.

“Yes ! It’s me. Father missed out on a lot since he was gone… Who even was the unfortunate fellow in the suit ?”

The white Rabbit looked at the broken one.

“Boss ?”, it said.

Dexter looked at the white rabbit.

“So cool ! You are a female ?! Wow ! It is so rare to meet a female being a killer. Most of them scream like babies and run. It is so cool meeting woman that aren’t like such pussies.”

“You’re not scared ?”, she asked.

“Scared ? Nope. Dad was a Murderer too. He swore he would never hurt me and Mike though. At least he did murder after Evan was bit by Fredbear and in the hospital…He went totally insane after that. Michael never forgave himself for that accident. That was why he tried to undo what Father did, setting every soul free and then go down with the ship himself. But…I guess he forgot about this guy there. Still sad that he never had time to help me search Father…”

“Your Father was William Afton ?”

Dexter nodded then pointed at the broken Rabbit.

“Yes and he always told me that Springbonnie will know where Dad is. It was hard to recognize him, but the mask says it all with the structure. I thought Dad got rid of him, which was saddening to me… I loved Springy…”

“Springy ?”

“I called him that for short. You know before the bite, Springbonnie always walked around and entertained kids, without being in Costume mode. He was so good programmed by Dad that he almost had his own consciousness and we always talked and hung out when we could. He liked my Nickname for him.”, Dexter said smiling.

Then he frowned.

“He was my only friend…”

“William never was inside him when you talked with him ?”

Dexter chuckled.

“I knew when he was in there and when he wasn’t. Springy acted very funny when Dad was inside him. Sure he gave Springbonnie his voice, but Springy acted way cooler without Dad inside him. There was always a huge difference when Dad wore him.”

“Did he know ?”

“Nope… Well actually he did, but in the past he tried to tell me that I was just imagining it. But even after I was 10 years old he still acted like he had his own mind, so yeah… I think Springy actually had his own consciousness at some point.”

Then he turned to the broken rabbit again and smiled a sad smile.

“Sometimes he even told me that he would do anything just to see the outside world for once. It is sad that someone possesses him now, but I hope his tracker still works so I can find out where Father is.”

The broken rabbit went to Dexter’s direction and stopped as he was right in front on him.

“It’s….meeee.”, he said.

Dexter cooked his head in confusion.

“Eeeehhh ? I know that you are Springbonnie…”

“He means that he is William Afton.”, the white bunny said.

Dexter’s eyes widened and his head snapped to the white bunny.

“EEEEHHHH ?! WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN ?! DAD IS A FURRY NOW ?!”

The bunny giggled while the broken one didn’t look amused.

“Well, as soon as he went missing he was dead and inside Springbonnie, which turned into Springtrap at some point and then into Scraptrap. Now his name is Burntrap.”

Dexter stared at the bunny.

“Wait…so you weren’t kidding ? That is Dad in there ?”

She nodded.

Dexter slapped his hand over his mouth and then looked back at Burntrap.

“Holy shit….Dad…I’m so sorry. If I would have known sooner I would have taken you home when I visited Fazbear’s Fright that day ! I didn’t know ! I swear ! I didn’t recognize you at all ! But…wait…Mike…Did he know ?!”

Burntrap nodded.

“Why…why didn’t he TELL me ?! He knew I was looking for you !”

“Him and Mr. Emily planned to send him to hell, because he killed the Missing Children and Charlie Emily.”

Dexter started to sob and looked away.

“WHAT THE FUCK ?! WHAT A HYPOCRITE ! HE KNEW JUST AS MUCH AS ME THAT DAD LOST IT AFTER EVAN ! NO NEED TO BURN FATHER FOR THAT !”

Burntrap opened his arms and came closer to Dexter, intending to hug him, but Dexter backed away alarmed, with wide eyes. That hurt William.

“Don’t come any closer ! I am crying, what were you thinking ?! You could set off the Springlocks again !”, Dexter scolded him sobbing and sniffling.

“They won’t. I made sure of it.”, the white bunny said.

“Are you sure, Lady ?”

“It’s Vanny and yes. I am sure.”

“O-okay…”

With that he came closer to Burntrap and hugged him tightly. He hugged his Son back and Dexter balled his eyes out right then and there. Burntrap looked at Vanny.

“Illusion…..disk….please…”, he got out.

She nodded and rushed off to get him one.

“Your Voice Box is utter shit.”, Dexter said lightly.

“Not….properly….fixed….”

Dexter sighed and parted from Burntrap. He sniffled and wiped away his tears. He then looked at his chest and saw the Voice box. He instantly saw the problem.

“The red wire is loose and the blue one is slightly snapped… I can fix it for you. Also the black cable and the yellow one are switched into the wrong places.”

He nodded and then Dexter started to fumble on it. He stuck the red one fully into the voice box. Then he got out some cable tape from his right pocket and fixed the blue one and made sure it is inside the voice box properly and then he switched the black and yellow cable around and stuck them into their right places.

His hands were oily as he pulled them out, but he couldn’t give two shits. He smiled at his Dad.

“Done. Try to talk now !”

“I am surprised that you know how to fix a Voice box…Thank you, Son.”, Burntrap said.

“You have no idea how many times I secretly worked on Springy behind your back. He guided me with his voice box the first 3 times and then when it was really broken I knew instantly how to fix it or even replace it. I always helped and wanted you to have less stress at work to deal with. I saw how much sleep you lost and how little you ate. I was worried sick and Springy’s voice box bugged out and broke a lot. So I helped !”

Burntrap stared at Dexter in surprise.

“You are right. I never knew you even worked on him at all. Thank you again then… I always thought Henry did the fixing, because I knew that Springbonnie broke down a lot. It was suspicious that it suddenly was supposed to have stopped.”

Dexter smirked and then Vanny came back with an illusion disk. Burntrap took it and put it on himself. It activated and suddenly Burntrap was looking like William Afton.

He had chocolate brown hair, white eyes, black dress shoes and pants and a purple jacket on. His hair was middle long and done in a low pony tail. He smiled at Dexter.

“I am so glad I at least found you now.”, Dexter said, but there was sadness in it.

William grew concerned.

“What happened, Son ?”

“Well…After you were missing…everything went down… My Girlfriend admitted that she just wanted to get into your pants and left, Michael’s friends blamed Mike for the prank even though it was Mark’s idea and they left him all alone, Mike became depressed and saw it his mission to set everyone free that possessed an Animatronic to redeem himself for accidently hurting Evan, Evan died 2 days after you went missing he died of a heart attack, after 4 months of you being gone…Tiger died all of a sudden, the house you made me inherit was suddenly getting very difficult to hold, because I got fired from my job for no reason all of a sudden and then Mike died… There wasn’t anything good that happened since you left, to make me feel a little bit different than just grief and self hate…”

William’s eyes were wide in utter shock at all these news.

“Michael never had time for me, so I suffered in silence and alone. No one to turn to. And then…I was in Circus Baby’s Entertainment and Rental and repaired Baby, thinking maybe I can use your Animatronics to make money to keep the house and property…and I found Elizabeth inside it, rotten, mangled corpse. I told Mike and he burned the whole place down, claiming that Lizzy possessed CB most possibly… So there went my idea with the other way of getting income.”

William’s eyes held a lot of shock and sympathy.

“I tried to ask Mike if I can use Afton Robotics, which he inherited from you, to make my own Animatronics, but he said no and I couldn’t sway his mind either… I was too qualified for most jobs, which was why no one wanted me and for other jobs I was too under qualified. So I am stuck. Mike had more luck than me in Family though… He has a Son…but his Girlfriend kicked him out and I can’t find the boy… I wanted to take him under my wing. Sure I am very poor right now, but he is still Family. But I can’t find him. Fazbear Entertainment opened a new location, called The Mega Pizzaplex… Maybe there I can find the boy.”

“What’s his name ?”, William asked.

“Gregory Bill Afton.”

“Bill is one of my nicknames…”

“He loved you just as much as I did. I am not sure if he burned you to punish you or if he tried to set you free, but he still named the boy like this. And he said he doesn’t regret it.”

William sighed and then looked at Vanny.

“We have an Underground tunnel that leads to the Pizzaplex. Let us go and search for Gregory.”

Dexter smiled brightly and hugged his Father tighter.

“Thank you, Dad !”

“Always, Son.”

With that they made their way to the Pizzaplex underground.
