#BUT MY BABY

[q-starhalo]

OH HOW I MISSED MY VIOLIN

[not-totally-blind]

I'm in a group where we constantly talk about fanfic tropes and I saw this one that gave me a little idea. We talked about the trope that the bottom of the relationship is chubby and that's why he doesn't find out that he's pregnant until later. And when I read that I just think...

If I remember correctly it is canon that William Afton was fatter BEFORE his first accident with springlock insurance.

So I thought of an AU where William and Henry were a couple and William was pregnant (unknowingly) and at the time the suit failed he was rushed to the hospital, where after getting him out of danger (barely) they informed him that his baby just could not be saved.

That ruined their marriage in a big way since he couldn't deal with not only almost dying but also that he was going to have a child and he just didn't know it until he lost it. He stopped taking the care he should have considering his recent accident, but he didn't feel like he could cope, and Henry wanted to take care of him but he still had to take care of the restaurant and his other children (who were perhaps children from his previous marriages/adopted).

This is how he ended up in an almost skeletal and neglected state (as seen when being "Dave Miller") and things only start to go downhill when, with him not being there at the restaurant and Henry being so busy, they fail to prevent the death of Evan (his youngest son) at the hands of his brother Michael (the oldest son)

William just loses it, starts Circus Baby Pizza World for his murders and his maniacal "attempt to revenge" ends in the death of his next youngest daughter, Elizabeth. William passes off Elizabeth's death as a disappearance (unrelated to his new location) and suffers his third loss.

With all the tensions of the deaths of Evan and their unborn child and the "disappearance" of Elizabeth, the complicated feelings they both have for their son Michael, William and Henry are hardly the couple they once were. They spend a lot of time arguing, and the arguing only worsens Henry's depression and guilt and William's growing madness. One day after an argument, uncomfortable truths about Charlie (who is the daughter of Henry and his former wife) are revealed and Henry takes her to Freddy's. William in the middle of something like a manic/rage attack or just too crazy to think goes to Freddy's too, where he finds Charlotte outside because of the prank being played by some older boys and William just...

He wants his kids back.

He wants his lovely life back.

But he is no longer sure if he "feels" Charlie as his daughter or that he "loves" her as a daughter so much. He doesn't stop to think about anything and just does, ending Charlie's life in the alley and leaving her to die there. Technically it is the first life that he has taken into his own hands and felt....

It feels...

I leave him thinking that...

Feels good

He came home, he didn't know how much he would regret it later (if he regretted it at all). He returned to the house that at some point was a home but now it was more of a trap. William only took his essential things and decided to leave. He didn't care about Michael anymore. He didn't care about Henry anymore, who cared more for Charlie than for the son they could never know or they now-lost children. And he only left to continue his path of madness somewhere else

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I wrote all of that in just a moment and I was just amazed, I had to post it so as not to forget it (although I definitely deviated a bit from the initial trope and left several holes, maybe one day it will be a true story)

Scenario: a sample of your DNA was taken, popped into a cell, and cloned into a baby, gestated in a sci-fi artificial womb vat. The first time you or anyone in your family meets this baby is after it has already been born out of said vat. You can hold the newborn if you want, it's up to you, but it is a living breathing baby that was cloned from your DNA and is genetically identical to you.

I love clone philosophy. Give me all your philosophy of clones

If my mom sees a significant amount of blood she gets lightheaded, and has fainted on some occasions. Once it happened when we were kids, I wasn't there to witness it but I heard the story from my dad. Basically my brothers, around 7 or 8 at the time, were playing outside while my mom was making their lunch, and she accidentally cut her finger. It wasn't anything serious, but it drew a fair bit of blood and she passed out. My dad saw this and rushed over, but he didn't really know what to do so he just sort of started slapping her to wake her up (not recommended, but he had no idea and panicked)

At that exact moment my brothers both came in from playing, and all they saw was our mom unconscious on the floor and our dad slapping her. So, like, without even saying a word to each other they both just INSTANTLY start whaling on him, like, full blown attack mode to defend our mom. Which obviously didn't help the situation, but she did wake up and everything was fine.

Now our dad says that he's actually really glad they attacked him over what they thought was going on, because it means he raised good boys. And I still think that's true, they're very good boys.

Not to brag but my cats are Artists™

[Medium: Claws on rainbow scratchboard]

Remi works with a hesitant, erratic violence, creating a piece as light and fluffy as she is, and signing her work by hole-punching it with her teeth.

Timmy uses bold, strong lines to evoke some kind of powerful event, echoing his powerful presence and loud voice.

Nubbins, truly inspired, creates a high-energy piece that symbolizes the void where his brain should be, surrounded by chaos and mischief.

Kona, a reclusive avante garde artist, refused to work with me around. Only in quiet solitude did she create this haunting, introspective work.

She just sat contented in the comfy chair as I built this up around her

I call this installation “The Cat of Amontillado.”
