#hes such an interesting character

One of the things that's always irked me with fnaf lore is how they've already just kind abandoned the Afton stuff and are going into the weird pseudo sci-fi bullshit, despite the fucking angsty narrative GOLDMINE that could be made from Michael Afton alone

Like man fuck whatever they’re doing for the fnaf movie now, I don’t rlly care abt the animatronic side of things, i wanna see the trilogy following this physically and emotionally abused 16 year old struggling with the loss of his sister, his mother, and then causing the death of his brother, then having that guilt stick with him for decades until he’s tricked into wandering into his own fathers facility where he is then gutted like a fish and piloted like a fucking mech by an animatronic spaghetti amalgamation. Only to wake up weeks later as an empty rotting husk on the sidewalk with only one thing in mind, to kill his father and end all of this

He manages to track down his uncle Henry and after months of planning he manages to lure William and everyone else still refusing to pass on into a pizzeria which is then lit ablaze.

We get an entire segment in the final act in the final movie of the trilogy (beginning with Henry’s speech from fnaf 6 cuz that shit is the rawest monologue in gaming history):

William goes out screaming, begging for mercy just as his victims did to him, his plastic shell melting to reveal the flesh and metal beneath it. As Michael feels the flames around him he sits back and accepts his fate, a small semblance of a grin on his rotting, decrepit face. But before he can pass on he sees the ghostly visage of his brother, eyes blackened and shirt still stained with blood as it was on that fateful day. He knows he has nothing to say, nothing that can fix what was done to him all those years ago, so he says the only thing that comes to mind.

“I’m sorry...I’m so sorry...”

As he breaks down into what little tears his body can produce, the structure of the building giving way as the fire grew hotter and hotter, he expects to have the full wrath of his brother unleashed upon him. In his mind he deserves no redemption, no happy ending, and no forgiveness. Instead, he feels the embrace of a hug around him, hearing a voice he never thought he’d hear again

“I know...“

Michael uses the last of his strength to wrap his arms around his brother, embracing him, as they both are engulfed by flames, being able to die in peace knowing that whatever lied beyond the veil, his father would never see it. It was over.

Reflected on the monitor is a vision of both of them as they were all those years ago, embracing as they are in modern day, almost as a window into what could've been, had everything gone right.

The camera is obscured by flames as it begins to move up, through the flames and through the smoke, “Bonnie’s Lullaby” from fnaf 3 playing in the background. as the song comes to an end, so too does the movement of the camera

cut to black

“Five Nights at Freddy's

The End”

and then nothing else happens because the story is over and resurrecting William is a terrible idea and retroactively would ruin the ending of this (cough cough security breach cough cough)

thank you for coming to my ted talk

People getting Astarions tattoo is proof that media literacy is dead, and that he's going to be doomed to only ever be remembered as a sexed up twink despite his whole arc being that he hates being seen as that

Im still not over how Lagoon Was going to use Fathom the same way she's been using Albatross. I'm not over that she almost slips and says me when she talks about the Good Fathom will be for the kingdom. I'm not over that her first scene with Albatross is her bringing up his Incredibly Traumatic First Experience with his Powers to guilt trip him into behaving. The Albatross Tragedy IS Preventable. And I think that's important.

Because in the same book where the idea of inevitable fate and destiny is tossed around and everyone is trying to engineer the future they want or predict what will happen next or just submit themselves to what they believe is the way things Will Go. The Albatross Tragedy is an extremely preventable one.

Albatross was put under immense mental AND physical strain, I doubt they let him rest much at all. However these circumstances weren't inevitable but were caused by the society they lived in. The Kingdoms in WoF are monarchies, where the ruler has almost absolute power, and even at this point in time it's a very "might makes right" society.

Albatross could of totally taken over the throne at any time, he doesn't even need to murder for it. But the trauma of what he accidentally did to Sapphire coupled with how Lagoon kept on emotionally and physically abusing him made it so Albatross was so beaten down that he didn't even think of doing that. Except it wouldn't end there because he had the magic powers equivalent of a god.

Albatross isn't a tragedy of inevitable fate, it's one of societal failings and familial abuse, a tragedy that gets mirrored in Darkstalker. I have my criticisms of the book and I have Many Criticisms of Darkstalker but Albatross not being inevitable is such a great little bit.

There's something so symbolic about how quickly David's transition was from "we can't go on strike no way" to being the one to initiate throwing their pape bags on the ground in The World Will Know

He’s been circling in my head for about 3 days and I finally gave in and drew him

[tschulijulesjulie]

one thing i love so much about Damen is how incredibly smart he is while also being unbelievably oblivious.

like here - he might not know or understand Laurents motives at all and misreads him so much, but at the same time he does already understand so well how Laurent works

What was that you said about memory? "A monster," was it?
