Grad cap, masks, ❤? (I CAN'T FIND THE OTHER DAMN EMOJIS)

That’s when I go into copy-paste mode :’D

↪ 🎓  ↪ When did you join the fandom, why did you?

I actually joined it pretty early on, though I was a lurker back then! I started paying attention to it about a month after it came out. I live under a rock and completely missed it, and I was browsing Cheezburger (hahahahahahaha yeah....) and someone had put up a gif of Foxy, I don’t remember what he was saying, but it intrigued me and I mentioned it to some of my friends who were like “what? seriously? Mazey come on” so I began watching Mark’s videos of it and looking at fanfictions and art and just. Loved it. Sadly I didn’t get involved in the fandom until it had mostly died down, I was rly focused on school back then, but yeah, I was here pretty much since the start!

As for the why, the designs intrigued me, I’m a feckin’ furry and love robots, and I absolutely LOVE blank slate characters that I can impose a million and one AUs on! So yeah XD

↪ 🎭 ↪ What is your purple guy's backstory? Why is he the way he is?

He’s William Afton and he’s just a really sick person tbh. No tragic backstory (at least not in Aftermath ‘Verse, other AUs differ), no reason or goal, he just enjoys the feeling of power and the thrill of the kill. He grew up with loving parents and even a brother, no abuse, no mysterious deaths, nothing. His best friend growing up was Henry, Henry was an avid artist while William was interested in programming and they began creating these characters based off of a popular mascot from a popular local restaurant- Fredbear’s Family Diner. Eventually the family, close friends of Henry’s family, passed the franchise and all rights to Henry, who gifted half of the rights to his bestie, and they made their childhood fantasies a reality by introducing Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy (programmed by William) in their own restaurant, though Fredbear and Spring Bonnie continued existing in the diner.

Some things in life happened- both Henry and William got married and had kids, but the more time that passed the more... unhappy William felt. He started feeling jealous of Henry, who for the most part is recognized as the creator of the animatronics (since he designed them) and he began plotting ways to take the company for himself, which was somewhat thwarted when they were bought out by Fazbear Entertainment (he was tight for money, the only reason he agreed). He was kept on as a mechanic (though under an assumed name) and character actor at Fredbear’s, however, and began playing with the animatronics’ AIs, and through some sleuthing in dark corners he heard rumours that death can bring life to a machine- so he tested it out by egging on some local children, eventually manipulating the events that caused the Bite of ‘83. He privately examined Fredbear after he found out the child died and saw signs that it was true, so he took the leap and lured some kids (ironically, the same 4 who he had manipulated into tormenting Goldie’s kid) into the back and first severely injured them (so as to prevent escape), waiting until the building was vacated at night to finish them off by stuffing them inside the animatronics (who were powered down). Unfortunately his crime was discovered, but luckily his identity wasn’t discovered. The restaurant was shut down and Fazbear Entertainment contacted him, requesting he help them with their next big project....

William wanted to create an actual AI, however, rather than relying on death, so when he creates the Toys (note, he had no hand in the Marionette) he strives to create them “alive.” He’s delighted that he’s succeeded but he begins getting antsy and bored, as in Aftermath ‘Verse the animatronics aren’t hunting the night guard (Jeremy is unnerved by the fact they walk around and talk, and the OG animatronics do not like him), and he begins wanting to kill some more. So he finds a child locked outside the Pizzeria and lures them away... he gets his fix in slowly, one at a time, eventually even quietly murdering his own children (he, ah, got rid of his wife long before) and began playing with “elements” related to life and death. experimenting on himself and others around him, creating another set of animatronics and opening up his own business with them in order to access more kids.

Eventually something happened that just caused him to snap and he killed the children at the second location, the Toys the only witness. After they’re shut down and the Toys scrapped, he disappears off the map for a while, focusing on his pet project......

(SORRY THAT GOT LONG I LIKE RAMBLING)

↪ ❤ ↪ Do you have a favorite fnaf ship? If so, why?

I have so many (ultimate OG/Toy Shipper Here) but I gotta say Goldie/Spring! They’re literally made for each other, and their tragic story just hits me in the feels every time I think about it!!!
