#eaps rant

[axtonorian]

I will never get over the Mimic arc. I can't help but think about it CONSTANTLY. I'm so serious. Being forced into your head? Having this twisted version of someone you "hate" speak to you about things you did? Reminds me of a certain monkey...

But like...what else do you think happened? What else did the Mimic do? What else did he torment Eclipse with? Did he even do anything else besides what we saw? Or do you think he showed more? Like actually replayed July 16th for example? Or when he blew up Lunar? Did he show any twisted versions of memories? What else did the Mimic do? I need to know.

Every time I think about Eclipse, I think about Mimic. And I can't help but think about Wukong and the scroll from season 4 oh my goddd. AND the weird palace jail from season 5. Gahhh special interests are overlapping....

NOT HATE / CRITICISM - PURELY HEADCANONS

I draw the “platonic sparkchip” duo a LOT, but not out of “omg i ship them” (friendly reminder I DON’T SHIP CHARACTERS UNLESS IT’S CANON!! Very rarely do I deviate from this!!!)

I do it because BEFORE THEY EVEN KNEW EACH OTHER, I always knew they’d understand each other best and would be an amazing caretaker + wounded duo.

Ruin has 50 years of patience and emotional experiences on his back. He can understand and preserve through Eclipse’s issues and give him all the time he needs without becoming impatient like many other characters do. On top of that, Ruin has “Eclipse experience”, just by universe hopping for 3 years and meeting Eclipse upon Eclipse along with others. He knows Eclipse inside and out like he knows every other character. Especially since their stories are so closely bounded together.

Ruin sees Eclipse like a wounded wolf. He knows damn well Eclipse isn’t going to tend to himself nor let anyone else tend to him - especially when he sees himself as above them (in the food chain). But, his patience will allow him to get through to him and hopefully help him learn to not bite the hand that feeds.

Eclipse on the other hand tries to mask his unfamiliar sentimentality as “they’re too important as an asset to lose” when the reality is “I’m not letting you hurt me by dying after I let you get so close.”

Every time Eclipse allows someone in, they hurt him - not by betraying him - by disappearing. Moon abandoned him, Earth is unavailable most of the time due to his sacrifice for Solar, Puppet died for the sake of everyone, and now Ruin is getting KIDNAPPED! HE CAN’T LET THIS GO ON!

[pinkydee10]

Puppet’s dead, Eclipse now has to take care of Charlie, Foxy and FC just left because it was too painful for them to stay, it’s not entirely clear if Andrew went with them being connected to FC and all, and Jake and Andy still need to be rescued.

The entire unstable support system Eclipse built for himself is gone, all he has is Ballora,, Sunshine, and Moonshine who don’t understand

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAZZLE!!! AND HAPPY—uhh... belated deathday, Andrew :D?..

(Max's rant about entities (since its kinda technically related to this) under cut :3)

(Max= Moon, Elias= Eclipse, Lester= Lunar, Kane= Killcode. Those with no name change is because I cant think of a human name for them :'3—except for Bloodmoon; entities have weird names they choose but only change when they wanna change/be nice)

(In character(?):)

{ 1.1 , Entity Types }

"I hadnt considered that Evelyn Dazzle herself was an entity until now, so now it feels weird considering Dazzle isnt the type entity Im familiar with (ex. entities like Elias and Lester).

Now, after a bit of research and observation towards Dazzle herself and Rowan (as well as Moonlight and Sunshine), I found out there was a ghost type of entities that existed—something Kane had not informed me on.

This ghost-type is far different from the usual entity I have been around most of my life. Here are some of the differences:

Solid Entity:

–You know JJK? These entities develop in a similar way; they appear because of negative emotions or events, and they cling onto a human or "host" to fullfil their duties on spreading the negativity.

–They can posses their host's body, and its usually evident when a feature of a host changes. (Ex. eyes turning a different color, sharper nails, canine teeth, etc.)

–They have no human memories for they arent human to begin with, even those revived like Lester and Elias who are forced into human bodies, they still are considered entities.

–Entities can share a single host (as what happened to me with Kane and Lester), but most entities tend to be possessive over their host or just refuse to share them with any other entity. This is due to the fact not many hosts can actually take an entity well (especially the possession part) and hosts will weaken at that.

–Every entity is emotionless, but they can develop human emotions after a good while like Kane had and Elias and Lester (+technically Bloodmoon, too?) were influenced by it.

Examples of this type of entities: Kane, Lester, Elias, and Bloodmoon.

Ghost Entity:

–Its unknown how they become an entity after one's life ends, but they still cling onto a "host" to do the same duties. Although, these ones tend to stray from the original goals of an entity and rather have a goal and personality of their own that mimics how they were when they were human.

–They cant posses living hosts. (I think this may apply to possession over animatronics?)

–They have human memories but it comes back very slowly to them—its usually all a blur or difficult to decipher. Upon waking up, they do keep the same emotion they felt before they went (ex. scared, hatred, etc.)—those who feel a strong sense of emotions tend to get their memories way faster, usually more vivid.

–Rowan as well and Moonlight and Sunshine have shown, these type of entities can merge into a single body. Rowan is a mix of two ghost entities (that he can still talk to as he is just a new consciousness), but Moonlight and Sunshine can swap control on a shared body they have as no new consciousness developed in their place.

Examples of this type of entities: Dazzle, Rowan, and Moonlight and Sunshine. (Update: the Andrew I met a few days ago is also a ghost-entity of sorts.)

Is there more types? Possibly. All I know is that its difficult to do all this research knowing there are no sites or sources online about entities; I dont have plenty of confirmation aside from what Kane last said to me in that island."

okay everyone saying that eclipse is going to adopt solar flare as his fifth child and they're going to have a similar dynamic as the rest of his children-hear me out hEAR ME OUT-

Solar Flare knew Eclipse from Eclipse's second iteration. That was nearly two years ago. They were forced headmates for months. Solar Flare is probably on of the few people (second or arguably more than Lunar as well as Ruin) who actually understands the way Eclipse thinks.

Remember those interactions they had in that laboratory on the sun? Remember that last moment they shared before being blown apart in that alternate dimension? There's no way either of them forgot that. For Flare, that's probably one of the freshest memories he has of Eclipse. Being there and providing the comfort he could and assuring Eclipse that he understood his intentions and that he really could have been a better person if he'd wanted to be.

It's been two years. It's not the same Eclipse. That Eclipse had a star and a superiority complex and an inability to find a new purpose. This Eclipse has four children and a pet dog and a platonic co-parent friend and is quietly grieving over so many events that happened so quickly. And Solar Flare is such a stark reminder of the past for him. Someone who would have encouraged him to be better, someone who saw past the visions of grandiosity and found the person who just wanted to prove himself to be as capable as who he used to be. And he isn't that person anymore. It's been two years and two more iterations of himself and he is so tired of being what he used to be.

So I don't think he and Solar Flare would be a father-son dynamic. I think they're just two people on two opposite ends of time who crossed paths once and nodded in solemn understanding the second time. And this time, Eclipse is crossing paths, and Flare is walking with him.

[the-faketiccit0by]

I thinks Eclipse needs to set boundaries with others

Bc he left Monty's room after the furry episode non verbal and obviously pissed both Foxy AND Monty told Puppet she was being mean and she outright ignored it

He also just keeps letting Francis give him fucked up dreams about his past and things that could happen which, and as much as I love Francis, is obviously making him uncomfortable and angry or sad depending on the dream

Monty also keeps turning Eclipse into shit which also makes him uncomfortable and then he's laughed at which he obviously doesn't like

I swear Ballora, Sun, and Moon are the only ones who haven't hurt him in those ways

One day, Eclipse will probably fucking break and two things will probably happen:

1.) He either gets angry and hurts those people verbally/physically

Or

2.) He just breaks down and will not stop crying

And neither of those situations are good

"I don't get overstimulated" my ass

[cosmossnake]

Something i noticed recently...

Something I noticed about Eclipse and his relationship with each of his kids is that each one of them resembles one of his creations in some way or form.

For example:

Andrew reminds me a lot of Solar Flare. Both are/were very close to Eclipse and understood him in some way.

Jake and Andy remind me of Bloodmoon, not just in the whole two in one body kind of thing, but in the sense that they were used by somebody else in some way.

And finally Charlie, who reminds me a lot of Lunar. She's just as extroverted, just as excited and just as lovable as he was when he was younger.

The difference is unlike Flare, Andrew wasn't forced to stay with Eclipse, unlike Bloodmoon, Jake and Andy never left Eclipse's side and unlike Lunar, Charlie is being kept in the loop of what's happening and is treated right.

A rant on how some people in the fandom coddle lunar

look this really annoys me. Some people in the fandom just coddle lunar so damn much and it shows with this arc. Everyone is calling the celestial family abusive and neglectful for neglecting him to witch they have not. They kicked lunar out for attacking earth cause they want to him to forces on himself and his emotions are linked to his powers and could possibly run the risk of him attacking jack and dazzle two CHILDREN! Yes lunar won't and would never want to attack him but because of how emotional lunar is and how he refuses to say he needs help until he is forced shows the chance of him attacking jack and dazzle is not unlikely and speaking of him attacking earth I think some people need to realize that lunar COULD HAVE KILLED EARTH! Yes he didn't but he still basically could have or infected her with negative star power and made so it would like lunar. And it doesn't help that the fandom is always quick to shit on earth for being flawed for 5 minutes and people call her a bad person and yet every other character especially lunar get a free pass

moon mentally abused sun and killed kids - no one says anything

Monty scamed and commited multiple crimes and was an absolute dick until a bit before the eclipse and lunar take over - no one says anything

Solar was very neglectful to jack and basically left him alone with resulted in him getting bitted by razzle and went to go kill the creator without telling anyone and it having the potential to have him get killed again and everyone not wonder were he is. - no one says anything

Sun goes on a man hunt that leads to moon dieing - no one says anything (I'm sorry my beautiful beloved I love you for all your flaws)

Lunar kills someone and uses negative star power dispute the astrols telling him it's bad and nearly killing his sister and forever causing chronic pain - is defended religiously

Earth doesn't comfort lunar during when he is having a breakdown cause she is setting up boundaries - everyone calls her 100% bad

and I have heard this throughout the fandom and I just want to say this BEING OR HAVE AUTISM IS NOT AN EXCUSE. This is coming from someone who has it and have had me be shamed for some of my traits. Some people this lunar is autistic coded with is fine does it excuse any of the bad stuff he has done fuck no. Having autism or better yet ptsd doesn't mean you get a free pass. Imagine your in court and you just killed someone and you excuse is "but I'm autistic and have ptsd" like no your still gonna go to jail you still did a bad thing. Lunar bad actions are on him not his mental disorder ON HIM!

Edit : after seeing yesterday episode it just proves my point. Yes sun should have said that lunar should be the one to fix it but his daughter best friend was so mean to her she went up to her room to cry. Sun could have also told her what happened yes but how would explain to someone who seems to be no older then 7 that there best friend was taken over by magical force as complex as negative star power and not only that there using them as weapon for murder. Yes he could have explained it in a kid friendly way to her but I think sun desperately want to shield dazzle from the stuff they go through on a daily basis the episode Sun moves on he says that dazzle didn't deserve what she got and deserves to be a little girl he want dazzle to live happily and not deal with any of the stuff they always deal with for dazzle to deal with and the main reason for this negative star is on the planet to begin with is lunar. Is it his fault no but you can at least understand his logic which is especially clouded by rage with caused sun to act like that. Im I defending him no but like sun or not he has a daughter to protect and is shown to be very protective of her. If was anyone else there that sun let his anger out on especially earth I highly doubt any of you would say anything. And keep in mind lunar is not upset at the family for neglecting him ever since the attack he did on earth he responded to call out they give him on his bull shit is him understanding he deserves it as the main reason for all of this the whole reason for all of the family feelings for him being complained is him attacking and could've possibly killed earth as again earth could have died from the negative star blast and her having chronic pain was probably one of the better situation to have happened as she could have it take her over and it would be like how it is for jack or she could have flat out died. And that is what this rant is for not for people he bring up reasonable arguments that the celestial family is in the wrong but people who see lunar getting harmed in any short of way and shit on the other characters that are doing that. Just because he is your comfort character does not mean he should be defended like he is Jesus Christ. That is who this rant is for this is not out of malicious sorry if I made it seem like it was. @theinfamousmaybelle and to any one in the lunar protection squad or anyone who likes luanr in general I am sorry that I if I ever offended you or made you uncomfortable I'm truly sorry and it won't happen again. I am just so.damn tried for everyone in this fandom constantly defending lunar for every thing he has done. I don't hate lunar far from In fact he is one of my favorite characters but I hate how it is for some people if lunar in the show does anything he must be in the right 100% of the time. Once again I am not hating on any of you or think the celestial family are 100% perfect and in the right for this. This rant was just letting me get all my thoughts out of my system cause this has really been pissing me off. Especially because I absolutely adore earth so much and I hate her getting stupid criticism like this. Again all of your thoughts in this fandom are valid and I'm sorry if offended any of you or made you uncomfortable.

[the-weirdo235]

don't mind me just screaming into the void.

Lunar has every right to be mad at Earth. He obviously didn't have a right to hurt her. But he had the right to, and honestly should be mad. I feel like both the show and the fandom has kinda glossed over the affect Earth being friends with Eclipse would have on Lunar.

Because the abuse Lunar faced when he was with Eclipse has kinda just been narrowed into that one slap and that Eclipse killed him. Which is bad enough. But it was so much more than that. To start with just the physical, they obviously couldn’t show it because YouTube wouldn't allow it. But we hear that Eclipse would strangle Lunar, and from what I remembered it seem he did it more than once. Eclipse would also test his weapons on Lunar. What really gets me is how casually Lunar talks about it, like it's normal. He would also force Lunar to allow him to check if Moon was still locked away, like what he did with EaPs Moon. Plus obviously he killed him.

Then there's the mental abuse. We all know Eclipse was quick to anger and shouted at Lunar often. But he would also belittle and degrade Lunar. He manipulated Lunar. Eclipse also drilled it into Lunars head that he would throw Lunar away the second he lost his use. So Lunar was living in constant fear of being discarded. I still remember watching when Eclipse told Lunar to get out of the room because he wants to talk to Moon, or when he came to find Lunar when he was at Montys house. It was absolutely toe curling. It really shows how much Eclipse has broken Lunar.

Now imagine your own sister, the one you've built a connection to, the one who's supposed to be your safe space, goes on and befriends the one who did that to you, the man who killed you. I also get why Lunar didn't tell her he wasn't okay with it. Because this was when they were all grieving Solar and Nexus was going crazy. So it's kinda hard to say to your sister, "Hey, stop being friends with that guy that helps you grieve your dead brother because I don't like it." It's probably also why Lunar stopped really trying to talk about his problems with Earth, because she kinda just gave him the middle finger. And I get Earth was grieving. But it's like getting with your friends ex, it's kinda just somethings you don't do. Earth should have know better.

”She’s just a kid” do I give a fuck?

no. People seem to be infantilizing 11 year olds way too much. Yes, they’re kinda stupid sometimes (most of the time) but they have common sense and understanding of emotions (coming from someone who was eleven that one time and now has an eleven year old in the house). Charlie is in that stage where she would enter puberty and begin to think more deeply into emotions and actions (and then discard them like 3 years later). Charlie knows what she’s doing. Charlie knows what Eclipse has been through. Charlie literally has guidance all around her, both through her powers and at just life, yet she doesn’t accept it. She has caused Eclipse problem after problem, pain after pain, stress after stress even after all he’s done for her (easing her into death, helping her after death, uhh I lowk forgot the rest I just know he eased a bunch of her pain and guided her a bunch). Now, what Eclipse said is NOT okay, like uhh that is still a child. But all Charlie had to do was apologize and very simply tell her feelings. Eclipse would have understood. But instead she blew up and made poor justification for her actions.

Do I like Charlie right now? No. Are her actions justified? No not really. Are Eclipses words justified? No. Does he deserve a wrench thrown into his plans at every turned corner? No. In summary fuck Charlie we need you rn and you’re just being a lil shit.

Spoilers for today's Episode

I love Eclipse. He's my favorite character. He's number one out of the top ten. I love him I do.

But I will NOT defend him. I will not put my chest or soul into defending him. If he fucks up HE FUCKS UP. And speaking of fucking up. Todays episode OH FUCKING BOY. OH. MY. GOD. OH GOD.

First off before I complain, I understand suddenly being given responsibly of someone or something. I understand that it's hard. Especially suddenly getting four kids. It's hard. It's difficult. It's stressful.

With that being said YOU NEED TO LEARN HOW TO CARE FOR ALL OF THEM. Not just Jake and Andy. All four. Yes you've been stressed and panicked about getting those two back. BUT THEY ARE BACK. That means you can now pay attention to ALL OF YOUR KIDS. I don't give a fuck if you "didn't sign up for this" you are responsible for them. They are your responsibility. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. YOUR. RESPONSIBILITY. YOURS.

You have been ignoring Charlie and Andrew for months. But you cannot do that anymore. Charlie JUST lost her father. He didn't even die. He's alive but he doesn't want her. She just lost someone important to her. She lost her father. That's not something someone gets over. That sticks with you for the rest of your life. She will always feel abandoned by him. She will always have trust issues. She will always have this feeling that someone will leave her. She's grieving.

Eclipse. Charlie confided in you. She told you what was wrong. She was sobbing. She looks up to you. She told you how she felt. She said she felt unimportant. SHE ASKED YOU "Do I even matter to you?"

And you WALKED AWAY???? YOU FUCKING. WALKED AWAY. And got Ballora and Sun to comfort her. Are you serious? I get your not good at comforting people but walking away? And getting others to do it? IS WHY SHE'S UPSET IN THE FIRST PLACE. You are her father figure now. You are her guardian. Her caretaker. And she feels alone. She feels unwanted. She feels unloved.

You need to be the one to comfort her. It HAS to be you, Eclipse. Thank you Ruin for telling him no and to do it himself. Thank you. But god FUCKING damnit he didn't listen.

I really hope he learns his lesson. I really hope he works on it. Because FUCKING CHRIST. I cannot believe he did that.

[immortaledd]

what made you decide to give your Ruin's design a mainly gray color pallette?

Speaking of your designs, what made you design Eclipse the way you did?

Ruin’s Design Explanation!

I figured i’d do a whole rundown because I’ve been asked why I designed em like this before!

Secret design LORE, comic sneak-peaks, in-character dialogue, headcanons, and more!

Eclipse will be a separate one, his has a lot more history!! The color palette question is answered in #7!!

And now, some in-character lore…

Yes he in fact has trans scars. Why? The AI’s are all naturally agender and can be programmed to act as a singular gender. Gender itself is not a real concept to them, and is only there to make humans feel more comfortable.

After everything Ruin has gone through, delving into human life and discovering the different genders humans may identify as, he related to the struggles of transgender slander, being labeled as a complete freak for being born the way he is and then outcasted for it. He designed those scars himself to give himself his own “identity” as you would program into him.

Ruin has no specified gender (my specific Ruin) but he leans towards being a feminine he/him.

In shorter terms I watched all his past abuse and all I could think about was transgender representation.

SNEAK PEAK COMIC!!

The comic’s results in present day!

More in-character transferring to my own thoughts.

Extra questions:

why the hell is he blue tinted

Just mood coloring! He’s not ACTUALLY blue-ish grey. It is color theory fr fr!

WHERE’S HIS MARRIAGE RING

I frORGOOOOTTT ASSROTPPPPPP DOFNT YEEL ATT MEEEEE

If you have any further questions or just had one I didn’t answer, ask em and I’ll be sure to answer them when I can! 😋😋

[pinkydee10]

Charlie has been going down my favorites list extremely fast recently. Faster than Rose.

Anyone else notice how much of a brat Charlie has been lately? First she calls Eclipse a bitch, to his face, and now she turns him into a baby and refuses to change him back! All because he’s “being mean”

Can somebody please remind Charlie just how much Eclipse has done for her. He has taken care of her, helped her when he actually could, and even got Henry to move to this dimension for her! And that was before he bought them a damn house!

I know Eclipse has been pulling away because he was convinced Charlie didn’t need him now that her bio-dad is around, but what was Charlie worried about before? Eclipse not spending time with her. And now because of her actions, Eclipse is going to pull away even more.

Look, I know she’s just a kid, but she’s starting to act like Puppet but even worse considering Eclipse actually started to genuinely care about her

Monica and Ballora are doing their best in trying to make her understand that she’s in the wrong and that she can’t just focus on Eclipse’s behavior recently, but what she really needs to do is give him an apology

Monica: Ok kids, let’s play a fun game called “apologizing!”

Rose isn’t exactly helping either by starting to act more and more like a typical bratty diva Roxanne model. She should know better than anyone how stressed and overwhelmed Eclipse can get because he has cried in front of her. Yet she still yells at him for “being an ass” and doesn’t defend him when others talk down on him, instead joining in and leaving Flare to be the first and more commonly the only one to defend him and see his side

You can use the “shes just a kid” excuse on Charlie all you want but what’s Rose’s?

[the-wet-noodle]

Am I the only person that finds it weird that Davis and reed are selling ruin??? Especially since he isn't even a custom made Avi, he's literally an edited model from the actual game,

Not only that, but they literally use ripped models for the show, while also crying over their avatars getting ripped??? Like you can't be on both sides man.

The main thing that makes me mad is that they don't even take the time to put it on quest. Yk you'd think they'd do that seeing as they are making the avis literally $1,500(which is an INSANE price for something you don't even technically own the rights too) if Im not mistaken. And we know damn well it can be on quest seeing that the ripped ones are.

Idk, it just feels wrong, especially given that the fans have given so much to them. It doesn't even feel like they care about their fans, it's just all for money and views. Like content creators don't need to have a super good relationship with fans, but I think people need to remember that fans are the only thing keeping them from basically disappearing off the Internet.

I get it, custom avis are expensive. But never that expensive, especially seeing that it's technically not even an original property. It's just FNAF. Not to mention every one of those characters were in the FNAF fandom wayyyyy before the show.

Maybe I'm just crazy, but it just doesn't feel right to me :p

(please be reminded, this is just my opinion, and honestly I'd like to see if other people think so too. Don't attack me for this, but if you do I might find it funny.)

[sleepy-hall]

eclipse’s first life

do you ever think that, eclipse’s first life is still in that forest, mangled and broken.

Like, by now, it’s probably overgrown with vines and other things

do you ever imagine that?

[sock-n-roll]

It is mat pat o clock EaPsfans of Tumblr.

Possible spoilers for anyone who isn't up to date under the read more :3

So. Eclipse may or may not have a mole. Someone who is able to access his computers, someone who can communicate with Vincent, someone trying to throw eclipse off the trail.

First guess would of course be Roxy. She attacked Eclipse before, and she's a new character, she's kinda the loose end. But I don't think that's true.

Here is my theory. I think it's Andrew. Not to be confused with Andy, the one with Jake currently. But Andrew the ghost kid.

We still don't know how he got away from FC, since before he could barely leave the room FC was in, much less travel across dimensions away from him. He was alone with the Mimicked eclipse and the Stitchlings (Jake and Andy) for almost a month, knowing most of the time that wasn't Eclipse. He almost died during that time. A couple times. He got sent away, he got pushed around, he might have been the Stitchwraith before, but he is technically a kid. And he was clearly scared.

On the other hand, he was the Stitchwraith. Half of it at least. He's smart, and confident. If William came to him with an offer of his own freedom, his chance at living again, why wouldn't he take it? He'd probably think he could worm his way out of it. Plus, he's growing desperate for his own body. Its been months now, people have come and gone, and he's still stuck as a ghost, unable to have any effect on the world around him.

Andrews touch aversion makes me a bit suspicious as well, he's mentioned multiple times recently that he can't be touched, and maybe I'm just looking for things, but it being brought up again and again makes me hesitant. Maybe he can, and he's just hiding it. It could also tie into the voice change, even if I know logically that's just Davis taking over that character.

This is especially hard with how close him and Charlie have gotten, if it is him, this is going to hurt a lot. Whether Charlie accepts Eclipse as her dad or not, they're siblings and I love them dearly.

Regardless of what happens I'm so obsessed with the eclipse and puppet show right now and I can't wait to see where Flora and Davis take it. :3
