top 10 fnaf fansongs, as decided by someone who's never played fnaf

well, i promised i would make this post. so after listening to quite a few of those "pov: you were in the fnaf fandom" type playlists, i have discovered...... goddamn, a lot of these songs actually go really hard!

i've narrowed it down to 10, but definitely check out my playlist where i added all the songs i enjoyed in some way.

"i can't fix you" - yeah this one fucks. the beat!! oh my god!! also idk if i should count the video as part of the experience but this one has a really fun and dramatic video. what the hell goes down in sister location?

"break my mind" - i'm obsessed with this one it's just. silly as hell. couple awkward lyrics/rhymes but it goes SO hard it's like a really dramatic electronic sea shanty??

"you can’t hide" - i really like the production on this one. it’s funky and cool-sounding without being over the top

"never be alone" - lyrics flow really well! and that main melody is so fun and catchy!!

"join us for a bite" - whimsical in a good way. not my preferred music style, but it feels really unique and i love the vibes and lyrics. it may not be my very favorite but you could make a great case for this being the best fnaf song

"it's been so long" - god it's fucking iconic. bad but also good. you know?

"dance to forget" - i think the ballerina might be the most compelling fnaf character so far. this has such fun lyrics, especially the way that the chorus uses repeating words!

"afton family" - REALLY good creepy vibes. i love the unnerving quality of the vocals

"die in a fire" - also just so iconic - this & "it's been so long" were the only fnaf songs i'd heard before i began this project. also WHY is this song so violent. good for her?

"the show must go on" - another that tells a story in a really fun way… i love the ones where the animatronics treat the human characters as defective robots who they’re legitimately trying to help

and some honorable mentions that i had thoughts on:

"no more" - ok i'm not gonna lie: natewantstobattle's style is so nostalgic for me. also i love how this sounds like a very specific type of 2000s pop rock

"daddy's little monsters" - what the hell happens in sister location? this story is intriguing

"you belong here" - i'm a sucker for this specific kind of fan-rap. idk if they're "good" per se but they're incredibly fun

"follow me" - that "follow me see a nightmare in action" hits tbh

"don’t hold it against us" - really interesting beat/noises, plus, once again, what the fuck happens in sister location

Hi, it's dontwarnthetadpoles. I'm not sure if you're still doing the ask game about ships but if you still want to (no pressure), i'd really like to read your opinion on Willow and Oz and Buffy and Riley. Thanks.

Hi, thank you for asking! :)) I had stuff to take care of before I felt I could devote time to this, but I've been looking forward to it!

Willow/Oz: ship it

What made you ship it?

Well, they're really cute and sweet! Oz is great boyfriend material, and Willow is often relatable, which is a good combination for that sort of thing.

What are your favorite things about the ship?

Oz is so good at setting boundaries it's a joy to watch (perhaps it's weird of me, but I especially love all the scenes where Oz tells Willow he's not ready for something -- kissing, sex, or getting back together after Willow cheated). He's surprisingly great at articulating how he feels and what bothers him, sometimes (given how much he can avoid talking about problems other times, such as when he became a werewolf).

They have some amazing conversations. Like the first time Oz asks her out:

OZ: I'm gonna ask you to go out with me tomorrow night. And I'm kinda nervous about it, actually. It's interesting.

WILLOW: Oh. Well, if it helps at all, I'm gonna say yes.

OZ: Yeah, it helps. It-it creates a comfort zone. Do you wanna go out with me tomorrow night?

WILLOW: (cringes and slaps her hand to her forehead) Oh! I can't!

OZ: Well, see, I like that you're unpredictable.

It's funny, and there's vulnerability and intimacy in having this conversation behind/about the conversation. Actually, this reminds me of the Spuffy scene in Hell's Bells, another of my favorites.

Their matching Halloween costumes are iconic.

I love a slow burn. I don't know if Willow and Oz's relationship objectively is one, compared to other Buffy canon couples, but the way it's framed makes it feel like one. I get a whole vibe of calm and acceptance and just being -- not racing along the relationship escalator or trying to prove something, just going with the flow. They're just vibing. :) Everything about the ship makes me feel comfortable. (I am deleting the Veruca arc from my memory as hard as I can at all times. I thought it was badly written, so I just want to pretend it never happened.)

ETA: can't believe I forgot "As Willow goes, so goes my nation" and also the slight shift in Oz's poker face as he watches Willow pretend to be vamp!Willow in Doppelgangland. They have many great moments.

Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

I'm really into Coyote's (osteophage's) essay "You're Too Picky, Man": An Ace Reading of Oz's Character Arc in BTVS. I like the ship EVEN MORE if I consider what if Oz's interest in Willow didn't have a sexual component.

And I think this is a moderately popular opinion, but Willow has two hands. :)

Buffy/Riley: don’t ship it

Why don’t you ship it?

It bores me? And I have to agree with the people who have pointed out that dating someone whose papers you currently grade is sketchy. Um, I don't enjoy how much Buffy worries about this relationship sometimes, to the point of trying to make herself seem less?

Also, this isn't the ship's fault, it just happens adjacent to the ship, but let me go on a little rant about Willow's shovel talk to Riley. I have never seen a shovel talk I liked, I think they're silly and pointless and disrespectful to everyone involved, and this is no exception (even if the vague disclaimer line is quotable).

What would have made you like it?

Maybe if Riley was a lesbian!!! (link goes to my favorite Riley oneshot)

Also, if Riley's characterization hadn't taken that nosedive in s5.

Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it?

Buffy is allowed to have a blandly adequate (?) boyfriend with nice arms if she so chooses.

I think the break from the monsterf***ing was good for Buffy to help realize what she was missing. :)

Rules: Tag three people you want to know better.

Thanks for inviting me to play, @roselightfairy! 💜

Three ships: Spuffy (my Buffyverse faves and the subject of my vidding WIP for Seasonal Spuffy), Shadowgast (my Critical Role faves -- there's so much going on in that pairing, let’s say... two queer nerds have a raging case of competence kink for their shadow selves (or perhaps that’s not the term, but there’s some intense narrative foil / mirror stuff going on at any rate), and also there's treachery and some manipulation, and, most importantly, redemption!), Spike/Anya (I'm writing a story for them! I'm turning a trope inside out and waxing sincere about what tumbles out of its insides!)

First ever ship: uhhh, maybe James/Lily from "Harry Potter"? I'd like to think I have discovered finer forms of foe yay since.

Last song: "Notiksies, kam jānotiek" by Marana feat. Renārs Kaupers, lyrics by Aivars Neibarts (We'll spend the night in a footprint of the darkness.... a red egg will sprout on the edge of the sky again)

Last movie: rewatched "Ginger Snaps". Horror movies are not exactly my thing, but I like the werewolf girls and the complicated platonic relationship, and the male-female friendship/alliance.

Currently reading: "We Too" (Essays on Sex Work and Survival) edited by Natalie West; and "Thing Explainer" by Randall Munroe. "We Too" is very enlightening and engaging (if often sad). "Thing Explainer" reduced me to giggles of absolute delight until the gimmick wore off a bit. It's an interesting intersection of science/technology nonfiction, humor, and almost poetry.

Currently watching: "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", the 1981 series. It's fine? I don't understand why I'm not more into it, tbh. It has all the good Hitchhiker's Guide jokes and stuff. Everyone except poor objectified Trillian looks great.

Currently consuming: ???? like art forms that aren't covered by the other questions? I did just read a neat poem, Kuala Lumpur Urban Legends by Jack Kin Lim.

Currently craving: breakfast and a nice bike ride, in that order, but I’ll have to do it the opposite order so I can start work at a halfway decent time

Tagging: @acaseofthewiggins, @feliciacraft, and @rahirah, but only if you guys feel like it! And anyone else who reads this and wants to do the thing, feel free to consider yourself tagged. :)

My #1 post of 2022

For the ask game... Xander/Anya, Buffy/Angel?

Thank you very much for asking! <3 I thought I'd have time to answer this sooner, yet here we are -- but I've had fun mulling it over during the week.

Xander/Anya

I ship it, though I'm not super invested in it. They can be really sweet and fun. They have their issues, but who doesn't.

   What made you ship it?

I always thought they were pretty entertaining, I guess. Or, I am interested in Anya, and Anya has some incredible scenes that happen to be related to Xander.

   What are your favorite things about the ship?

I like that they're down-to-earth and easygoing compared to some other major canon ships. The show allows them to have a relationship that isn't a huge deal, a big dramatic love story, at least for a while. I like that they're allowed in canon to have fun in bed, creatively even, and it's not implied that they're evil people for it.

I adore the way Anya confronts her humanity through/because of this relationship. I like that being in a relationship with Anya helps Xander grow too.

In fic, the ship can be moving and heartbreaking and, on the flip side, there's staggering comedic potential. It has the range.

   Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

I don't think either one of them was ready to get married in season 6, even if there had been no Xander-impersonating demon at the wedding? Um, not sure that was an unpopular one, let me try again.

While Xander does sometimes get snarky and patronizing about Anya's ex-demon peculiarities, I think it's understandable (in moderation!) -- nobody's patience and kindess is infinite in real life, and it’s not like his parents set a good example of what a healthy relationship looks like. Overall, it must have been helpful for Anya to get some cues from him about human life (why Anya was written as so clueless about human life is another can of worms).

Leaving Anya at the altar was obviously badly executed, terribly timed, and painful for everyone involved, but maybe a little better than going ahead with the wedding and THEN having second thoughts or huge unspoken issues.

Also, I’ve said this before, but I thought Anya's suggestion to have fun with two Xanders before merging them at the end of "The Replacement" was perfectly reasonable (though it doesn't matter, because the Xanders were uncomfortable with it).

Buffy/Angel

Okay. This one's interesting. I almost ship it. That is, I would NOT say I ship it, but... *shoves multiple poems under the bed* look, it's not like I've ever felt compelled to seek out fic about them or anything... *dedicated rec list spills out of my pocket* shit, I can explain.

I used to ship Bangel because it was the major ship that canon put in front of me and, let's face it, I'm a sucker for a good bout of miserable pining. I listened to that one playlist by @womanaction A Number of Times. :)

   Why don’t you ship it?

I stopped shipping it after I saw "I Will Remember You", where Angel had a chance to be with Buffy and decided against it. I'm not saying characters have to be an item in canon in order for me to be interested in them, but that's when I had a change of heart.

I've an uneasy attitude towards Angel in particular. He has qualities that I consider flaws in myself. This can make him interesting and relatable to me, but also hard to tolerate in larger quantities.

I've been around Spuffy shippers a lot, and they have pointed out to me all the drawbacks of Bangel multiple times. I'm sure this skews my perception somewhat. I'm not sure I want to rehash any of that here.

   What would have made you like it?

On the other hand, hearing people bash Bangel makes me feel like NOT outright hating the ship is cool and rebellious and mature of me as a Spuffy shipper. So in a way, the ship squabbles make me like Bangel a bit more out of spite.

I know that Angel's happiness curse is only ambiguously tied to sex, but I think there's some chance I would find Bangel enormously interesting and cute if Angel and Buffy decided to have a romantic relationship without sex. I think I might have imprinted on them for ace reasons if I’d seen this happen at the right time.

Alternatively, and this is more of a fic thing than a canon wish, *opens AO3* okay, genuine question, why are there so few Bangel stories in the Orgasm Delay/Denial tag? Buffy and Angel could have some creative fun without, ah, Angel's perfect happiness -- but of course, this is based on the simplified interpretation of perfect happiness as a pleasure moment.

I think I might also really enjoy a Buffy x Angel dynamic where they had, contrary to Spike's speech, become friends. Where the will-they-or-won't-they was no longer on the table, the way Xander gets over his romantic feelings for Buffy and keeps helping and supporting her afterwards. I might be even more into it if Angel still had a thing for Buffy but resolved to not make it her problem and channeled it into helping her unconditionally.

Ironically, I like the ship more when Angel is soulless and evil. I don't think Buffy and Angelus should, like, DATE, but I think the Angelus of BtVS s2 still has some semblance of romantic feelings for Buffy (not something we'd call love, I suppose). And he is suuuuuper messed up and conflicted about it, being a control freak whose identity depends on not pursuing this impulse. His struggles with his pesky crush are both rather relatable and enormously entertaining to me.

In theory, I might like Bangel more in the later seasons or post-series, but in practice that's when Spike is in the picture, and I have a preference.

I do like Buffy and Angel as part of a Spuffgel OT3.
