Vanessa TOTALLY got those Tapes for the FNAF lore..

[ask-red-the-fox-and-company]

Jay how did you get all those scars?

Jay: A couple years ago I worked at this theme park as a security guard. Well one day one of the guy's working on this horror attraction called Fazbear Fright's asked me to come on a salvage run since one of the usual guys couldn't make it. I said no but he offered me a thousand dollars to help. I agreed because I needed the money, I had a roommate at the time who was stealing my half of the utility bills so the thousand was needed to pay off the remaining finds. That night we found him. A rotted, decayed spring lock suit with a corpse inside. I told him to leave it, that it wasn't worth the risk when we saw the damn thing move. We got into a fight and the guy picked up a crowbar and swung. Got me right across the face gashing me pretty damn good. Then about a week later the Fazbear Fright's attraction goes up in flames, literally, and then bam the fire starts quickly spreading to the rest of the park. I was on shift alone that particular night. I called the fire department and then I grabbed a fire extinguisher and tried to stop the fire from spreading as much as I could and ended up with a few burns as a result. Management told us in case of a fire to slow it down as much as possible. The security guard for Fazbear Fright's pulled me outta the fire and disappeared when emts arrived. The park went outta business due to the fire. I ended up working some odd jobs until I tried my hand at being a video game beta tester. That ended up with me being briefly mind controlled by a computer virus known as Glitchtrap. It was building strength to possess people. For a short while I was loyal to that floppy eared bastard. Then I got electrocuted on the job and started fighting back. I managed to get Glitchtrap out of my head but no one believed me until it was too late.

Back to Glammike theory! There is one detail that I stick to and that many may miss. In this theory, Michael DOES NOT HAVE complete control over Glamrock Freddy. Possession by a ghost does not always mean complete control over the body. I think this also works with the animatronics from the first part. This would explain the dissonance between “the animatronics see us as a naked endoskeleton” and “the vengeful souls in the animatronics want to kill us.” The souls of children do not always control animatronics. At 1-2 nights they are just animatronics, on the other nights they are the vengeful souls of children who saw us (Michael) as a killer and are now ready to take revenge for everything.

I just want to say that in the game itself it is Glamrock Freddy and Michael can sometimes take control of him, which can from time to time be seen in Freddy’s phrases. Even Wikipedia says that Glamrock Freddy is possessed by an “unknown soul.” And yes, I think some have already guessed that according to my theory, in the cutscene with the appearance of Burntrap, the phrase “I am not me” belonged to Michael.

Now it's time for my own fun facts.

1.As many say: “like father like son.” Well, it's true. After all, “always come back” now not only William but also his own son Michael himself, having returned in a completely new guise. All this makes the situation even more ironic from the third part. After all, it was there that their “family squabbles” began. Therefore, according to theory, in Fnaf SB the battle with Burntrap can be called “Michael vs. William - Return.”

2. I keep thinking that when Glamrock Freddy said "I am so sorry" where Gregory received a magnet with Mr. Hippo as a gift, Michael was in control at that moment. Mr. Hippo was simply his least favorite animatronic lmao-

Alright, AU questions

(thesere the goofy ones that I like to ask everyone)

What's each main characters favorite drink? (Coffee, tea, soda, etc)

Hottest take on a characters personality? (Do you portray anyone really outside of fandom norms, how?)

What's one weird quirk your favorite character has got that you gave them?

OKAY, so, I wasn’t very sure if I should just talk about one of the AU’s for the questions—so I figured I’d just try to do all of them if I could—though, for the main characters, like you said.

For the Reluctant Follower Jeremy & Animatronic Vanny AU, I’d consider the MC’s to be:

Vanny, Jeremy, Glamrock Freddy, & Gregory.

For the reunion & memory AU with Glam Fred & Bon, I’d consider the MC’s to be... them. The others are also decently involved, but it’s an AU focusing around them both.

The Swap AU? Cassie, Glitchtrap, & Vanny.

The Dr. Scraptrap AU? Scraptrap, Elizabeth, Plushtrap, and Spring Bonnie.

Anyways, onto the questions, starting from the favorite drink one, and then I’ll just go from there. I don’t wanna waste too much time.

Dr. Scraptrap: This man constantly drinks coffee, it’s his favorite.

Elizabeth: Apple Juice.

Plushtrap: Absolutely just... really likes drinking any sort of energy drink. Also Apple Juice.

Spring Bonnie: Tea.

Vanny (both Swap & Animatronic): Chocolate Milk.

Glitchtrap: Tea.

Cassie: Orange Juice.

Glamrock Freddy (both): Water.

Glamrock Bonnie: He doesn’t have much of a favorite, but does enjoy soda and tea.

Gregory: Soda.

Jeremy: Coffee.

As for the question about the character’s personalities... I’m not too certain. Like, with the Swap Au, there’s obviously changes here and there—mainly with Glitchtrap and Vanny.

I’ve never really focused on the ‘fandom norms’ or whatever the fandom would typically depict someone, but, one of the main ones would be... Gregory?

I’m not sure if I would count it as a norm, but I do see a lot of things where they just portray him as... pretty bad. Like, there’s more to it, but, y’know.

He’s just a kid, though. He’s pretty good.

Another would probably have to be (Dr) Scraptrap? Like, for a bunch of things, but whenever it comes to Afton, I see a lot of things between the kids.

Like, some are like, ‘Oh, he was a horrible dad’, and others are like, ‘Oh, he was a good dad’, etc. I’m not really sure if these are norms... I’m saying whatever is coming to mind, it’s late.

In the Dr. Scraptrap AU, he is at least a pretty good parent to Plushtrap and Elizabeth, and cares about them a lot. Good bunny father. 👍

Although... being honest? I think nearly all of the characters would have a bit of different personalities/be out of fandom norms, because I wouldn’t be able to write everyone perfectly.

But I’m sure trying my best. 👍 Though I’m still adding my own bits here and there.

As for the third/last question, with the ‘weird quirk(s)’, I’m... not very sure, honestly.

Because, sure, I’ve given/added certain things to some characters (Plushtrap, Spring Bonnie, etc), when planning them and everything else out. And maybe some of the things are interesting.

But I’m just not sure what would count as a ‘weird’ one, whatever you’re really looking for with the answer.

That’s about it, I think. Sorry if any of this wasn’t very good—I wanted to answer this right away, but it’s honestly pretty late. I just tried to say things as best I could.

Anyway, thank you for the questions :) Feel free to send in more, if you want. This was fun.

Ok, so I have continued and have caught up to the latest chapter of Bethroned and I am wrapping my shattered heart in as much duct tape as I can find. Do disregard the small pieces on the floor, I will pick those up in a ziplock bag.

Anyways, here is another sketch from Chapter 17, I still have 2 more to wrap up, and I promise to stop tormenting everyone.

I will place the sketch under the "read more" line since I do want to avoid any spoilers for those of you who have not gotten this far in the story yet, and also, it’s violent. So please be warned before proceeding.

So… yeah, that scene with Moon being completely unable to move as he watch his brother get completely brutalized with his own weapons and then getting framed for it since the weapons were placed in his hands… yeah, that’s- that’s heart-wrenching… it was both beautifully written and devastating to picture. But wow, I cannot stop reading!

Bethroned is by the lovely @strawbubbysugar I HIGHLY encourage everyone to go read it! Also, I am sorry I keep sketching these out, but until I get them out of my head, I have a hard time focusing on other things.

Other sketches for this chapter:

Draw glitchtrap, the ever-so slightly less smelly rabbit

Or shadow bonnie

Took me a good while to finish this but here's the entire fruit basket stinky rabbit

[sals-corner]

Theory Time!

Glitchtrap, a form of the Mimic1 program, copied the behaviour of Vanessa's dad in order to gain more control over her.

Here we see one of Vanessa's therapists talk about her dad, and his behaviour towards her, Vanessa is vulnerable, struggles with anxiety and has been mentally abused by her father.

Here was see Vanessa speak about how "he" would always be watching, of course this is in reference to Glitchtrap, but her therapist assumes this is about her father, and her therapist might not be far off from assuming that.

My conclusion is that Glitchtrap copied Vanessa's father's actions knowing he was abusive towards her, as a way to help manipulate her further, knowing that she is already so mentally vulnerable.

Headcanons - Glitchtrap ✷

What a silly rabbit! Have some thoughts on William Afton's latest and certainly not greatest form of supposedly "living forever".

☆☆☆

❋ Glitchtrap is first and foremost, a ghost. He may be taking the form of an annoying little computer virus, but this is still William Afton in the non-flesh. He has the ability to jump between electrical currents with relative ease, giving him access to all sorts of screens and wires. His favourite digital spots to hang out are various security cameras in the Pizzaplex, and most of all, Vanessa's home PC.

❋ As a ghost, Glitchtrap's anatomy is very unique. He could technically take the form of whatever he wants to look like, but of course he chose what appears to be a very personalized version of Springbonnie. He has fabric for skin with a hand-stitched kitschy appearance, complete with plasticky eyes, nose, teeth, and whiskers. The polyester faux fur fabric conceals cotton-white plush innards. Glitchtrap still has organs of course too, but they're suspended in cotton and poly-fil rather than the good old blood and tissue.

❋ By the time that Glitchtrap exists, he is a shell of a man. A pathetic excuse of a representation of William Afton. In fact, he barely truly remembers who he used to be. Strongly affected by a form of post-traumatic amnesia, he only remembers selective details about his life. He remembers the most about his kids, his goals and aspirations, his talents, and particularly his past business partner, Henry. His warped memory only kept things that were deemed "important", naturally. He fantasizes about Henry frequently still, daydreaming about a romanticized version of his past with him, even remembering some events that didn't actually happen. Subconsciously, part of him believes they'll be reunited again somehow someway. Ignorance of reality is to blame for that belief.

❋ This form of existence has, for lack of any better words, royally fucked up his sense of personality as well. Most of the time he acts like a bastardized version of his past stage personality of Springbonnie. This manifests as him being overly childish, stubborn, careless, apathetic, selfish, manic, and reactive. Glitchtrap prefers not to think about such things, and acts without thinking most of the time. He is very much aware of who he is, William Afton, but in the way that he might do a double-take if addressed by that name for the first time in a while. He is still just as murderous, dramatic, and cunning as he once was as well, encouraging Vanessa to carry out his vague "legacy" for him since he is largely unable to do so as a ghostly computer virus. He does have the ability to possess her as well, but is simply too lazy and prefers to watch her willfully do his bidding.

❋ Glitchtrap struggles with his sense of identity. This has carried over from his time spent as Springtrap, and his dissociation of self has only gotten worse. The contrast between Glitchtrap and William is vast and unnerving. He believes himself to be better than he's ever been, and worse at the same time. If he were to look in the mirror and see his past human face, he would not fully recognize it as himself any longer.

❋ In one way, Glitchtrap could look in a mirror and see himself. His real self. Due to some innate retained sense of humanity, his virus form's head can be ripped off and removed to reveal a shadowy and glitchy form. Underneath the rabbit's face, lies the broken visage of a human. Behind glossy purple eyes, there will forever be silver-blue ones. No facial features can be visibly discerned besides those haunting, iconic eyes now surrounded in black or white shadow. Perhaps it is better for this silhouetted version of the self to be hidden, since seeing its existence greatly distresses Glitchtrap. He pretends it doesn't exist, but why would it exist if he didn't secretly wish for it to still be there? He controls his own ghost's appearance, after all. Part of him craves humanity.

❋ And through all of this dissociation and amnesia, there are infrequent short periods of lucidity. A precious few hours when this miserable ghost is more William than Glitchtrap. It's horrifying. Distressing. Agonizing. He doesn't know where he is. He screams for help, no one answers. Vanessa is no help to him, he refuses to speak to her when he's like this. She keeps her distance. William despises who he's become, filled with self pity. He cries and thinks to himself that it isn't fair that he should have to live like this. Oh, but isn't it fair? Isn't it justified? Shouldn't a murderer such as himself have to live in the very same life that he condemned others to? A ghost in a machine. Trapped. It's rather fitting, I think. Glitchtrap is indifferent, he quite likes his life in a poor woman's desktop computer. William disagrees.

I like that game of "make assumptions about me based on my kinlist" but only in theory because my kinlist is, well,

[suddenlymicah]

has anyone considered henry possessing glamrock freddy or am i being a little silly right now

[an-archaic-archivist]

Glitchtrap the puppet master

You ever think about how it must feel being possessed? Not being in control of your own body? I always thought that idea was horrifying. Fnaf Security Breach dabbles in this concept a little and leave some very dark implications as to what it's like. And because of the unsung main antagonist of the game, Glitchtrap.

It seems to me like Glitchtrap gave Glamrock Chica the ability to feel hunger just so he could torture and manipulate her into listening to him. She's always talking about working off those calories. Why else would she be able to feel hunger if she can't even process the food? What would be the point? It's to give Chica a stronger motivation. It's very common for people with anorexia to feel lightheaded and thus, more suggestible. Then, when Gregory crushes her, He amps up that feeling of hunger even more. no living thing can resist the feeling forever, after all. He would egg her on how she isn't good enough, that she isn't as pretty as Roxy. That she would only be useful if she caught Gregory. Speaking of Roxy...

Roxy seems pretty self absorbed most of the time. She's always talking about how she's the best and that no one can beat her. Glitchtrap probably amplified that trait of her so make her easier to control. All he would have to do is keep reinforcing the ideas she already has. You can even see her talking to herself in the mirror at the start of the game. I like to think that's Glitchtrap talking through her in that moment, sensing that Gregory showed up and getting her ready for it. Later on, when Gregory steals her eyes, Glitchtrap decides he's had enough of her failures and drops the kind act. Instead, he constantly berates her, telling her that she's worthless and that no one loves her, which Roxy echoes as she chases you.

I honestly don't have much to say about Monty. I feel like his is more self explanatory. He's somehow even more egotistical than Roxy and is also very aggressive. Glitchtrap heightened both aspects of Monty's personality for the same reasons as Roxy, except now, he wanted to created something much more mindless and persistent than Roxy. Like a wild animal on a leash. Who knows? Maybe that's why Monty might have killed Bonnie. Or maybe Bonnie broke free like Freddy did and tried to save someone. Except Freddy succeeds where he failed. But Gregory was already broken before he had the chance to help him...

While Gregory was Dr. Rabbit, Glitchtrap most likely magnified Gregory's stoicism and lack of empathy. Gregory isn't shown to be the most empathetic person in Security Breach. When Freddy is having an existential crisis when seeing the endo basement and he looks to Gregory for help, Gregory just says that he's a kid and doesn't know these things. Then when Gregory suggests stealing parts from Freddy's friends and Freddy is upset about this, Gregory just says that they're trying to kill him anyway. Keeping in mind that Gregory knows by now that all the animatronics are brainwashed and not acting of their own free will anymore, but he just ignores that. We also see him act very coldly at the end of G.G.Y. Telling Tony to meet him at the Pizzaplex, knowing well that Tony will probably die there. Likely at the hands of our favorite, criminally underutilized character, Vanny.

Vanessa is described in the emails as being a stereotypical girly girl that gets excited about everything and loves glitter and pink and rainbows. She's shown to have a childish side to her. So our old pal Glitchy focused on that part of her. Making it so that his new puppet would not only obey him without question, but would love doing so. Children require attention, Something only Glitchtrap will give her, isolating her from everyone else. Speaking to her like a showman would. Telling her that it's all one big game. A play where she's the star. A game she must win for his approval.
