Welcome to the Grand Opening of Freddy Fazbears Balloon Circus!
After an array of previous undisclosed incidents at the Mega Pizzaplex, ending with the sudden collapsing of the building due to an unexpected earthquake, Fazbear Enterprise has demolished the old mall and rebuilt a new and improved carnival on the property! But just because the attractions above ground have been overhauled, doesn't mean the secrets beneath the surface have magically disappeared.
Reblogs appreciated!
Tumblr media
MANY more rambles about this AU under the cut: would much appreciate if you read them, but there's no obligations!
Tumblr media
EVERYTHING HERE IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE!! This AU has just been pieced together by my insane ramblings to my friend over the past few days, so everything in it's early stages of development, and this post is being written VERY late while I'm very sleep deprived and just trying to finish it in time to schedule it! If some things are a bit weird or inconsistent then please keep that in mind! Thank you! :D
Tumblr media
Gregory, Vanessa, and Freddy all return to the now renovated lot where the Pizzaplex once stood, having been called back two years after their last failed visit too save a long lost friend, too repair their old creation known at the M.X.E.S after it was suddenly and unexplainably shut down again. Upon entering the new-ish carnival, they'll quickly find it hard to safely look for the entrance to the layers below as the friendly mascot suits above chase after them for being unwanted guests.
Above ground, they're hunted by the mascots- new suits built for both performers and endoskeletons to be able to wear. This night, controlled by corrupted endoskeletons, they've been ordered to chase after the intruders by someone lurking below the carnivals ground. As well as finding the littler animatronics, known as Balloon Babies, to be quite the inconvenience.
Below ground, they're hunted by the old Glamrocks, still functional after all this time, and now under a new threats command that's also trying to keep the 3 star family from reaching M.X.E.S; Vannie. Aka, Cassie. Still here in the ruins of it all, waiting for the her perfect moment to lure the family back in and get her revenge for what they did to her all those years ago.
Tumblr media
The mascots are the new faces of the Freddy Fazbears Balloon Circus, their costumes built to be worn by both endoskeletons and actors- but in a safer way than the springlock suits. The actors are used during the day for greeting and interacting with guests, putting on performances, etc etc. While the endoskeletons are used at night as a replacement for security guards and STAFF bots, kindly, but forcefully, escorting any intruders off the premises. Under Vannie's control they, of course, are much less kind and gentle with how they "escort" the 3 star fam out of the carnival.
Tumblr media
Balloon Babies are smaller, almost Helpy-like animatronics in appearance, built to keep lost and lonely children happy and entertained while waiting for their guardian to arrive. They can't speak, but they can play song, games, sound effects, blow up balloons with their fingertips, etc etc. They found Gregory after he had been forcefully split up from Vanessa and Freddy by the mascots, and upon the family reuniting, the Balloon Babies more annoying feature kicked in: The Emergency Alert System. Whenever a child they are playing with is approached by an odd looking adult or other figure that seems like they could be a potential threat to the child's safety, whether that be a kidnapper, unfit guardian, bully, etc. the Balloon Babies will use their emergency alert system to call one of the mascots over and deal with the threat, kindly guiding the threat away and bringing the kid to a safer area away from potential danger where they can stay with staff until a proper guardian arrives. The Balloon Babies had decided in their time with Gregory that Vanessa and Freddy were unfit guardians for leaving Gregory scared and alone this late at night, and any time Vanessa and/or Freddy is nearby, their alert system will sound off and call a mascot to their location. The problem, other than the obvious, is that the Balloon Babies are fixated on Gregory. They will always be attracted to him and find their way back to him no matter what, with the only exception being when he's under ground. Which means that, until they can find a way to deactivate or otherwise get rid of these guys, Gregory is forced to be split up from Vanessa and Freddy above ground, and regroup underground.
Tumblr media
The only exception is Goldie, a soft yellow version of the Freddy Balloon Baby that doesn't follow the others. Goldie is the only one of the Balloon Babies that can go underground, Vannie specifically programming him to be able to do so. He follows Vannie around and provides her with much needed company, being her only real friend down here besides Roxy. Later on, Gregory will find Goldie, but instead of calling for the mascots whenever Vanessa is near, he'll send out a signal to distract the other Balloon Babies away from Gregory so they won't call for the mascots or overwhelm him. Goldie can tell that Vanessa and Freddy are fit guardians that love Gregory very much, and can also tell that they're afraid of the mascots, though he can't compute why- it's his job to make sure that kids and their families are safe, so he's doing his best to ensure their safety however he can. Later on, Vannie will come looking for her friend after a long period of time of him being away and find him with the 3 star family, causing more conflict between the two parties that Goldie can't understand- Cassie and Gregory are supposed to be friends, aren't they? That's what Cassie said. Friends aren't supposed to fight each other, they're supposed to protect each other. That's what Goldie believes, at least.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Random trivia;
-Gregory, Freddy, and Vanessa have been living together for about 3 years now. 1 year by the time of Ruin, and 2 years after the fact leading up to Balloon Circus.
-Cassie has been gaslit into thinking that all the stuff Dr. Rabbit did was actually Gregory himself with no outside influence, only fueling her want for revenge, not only for the elevator incident, but everyone he hurt. This will affect Gregory greatly(he has not 100% recovered and this Does Not Help).
-Cassie still doesn't fully trust the Mimic, despite being under its influence. She let the M.X.E.S stay up after the 3 star family put it back up after Ruin despite Mimic's demands for her to shut it down again, assuring him it was "part of her plan". She wasn't entirely lying, shutting down the M.X.E.S was how she wanted to lure the family back, but she'd be lying if she said it wasn't also partially because she wanted to keep "that old endo" sealed away. He's not completely free from fault either.
-Gregory and Vanessa both have chips implanted in their heads, it's how Dr. Rabbit and Vanny took over way back when. Those same chips gave them VR vision, but the chips have since been "domesticated" and can't go full VR mode anymore. Despite this fact, they do still have a few side effects of the VR vision, such as some walls and objects simply not existing, despite them looking perfectly normal and real. They can phase through them without trouble, and this helps them navigate the Balloon Circus, becauseeeeeee;
-Cassie was there during the construction of the circus and set up VR walls in certain spaces to help her hide out and travel around undetected, even during the day. The 3 star family can also use these now as an easier way of navigating through the circus, but also as a way to hide from the mascots and even sometimes the Balloon Babies.
-The entrance to the underground levels is behind a VR wall, but it's one set up by the construction workers so the patrons wouldn't notice it. The reason an intentional opening is there is because the new entrance is now used as a dumping ground for stuff from random items from the ruins of the Pizzaplex to unused stuff from the circus to anything the employees with access to the area want to throw in there. It's how the ruined Glamrocks ended up there.
-The Glamrocks were being slowly reintroduced to the public, the biggest attraction so far being 'Chica of the Sea', a tent for the underwater hologram show of a prerendered mermaid Glamrock Chica that would swim around, wave at guests, and do a few preset moves that employees could turn on whenever. There's hints of them wanting to reintroduce the others as well that haven't been shown off to the public yet, with the new roles being; Glam Freddy and Bonnie are the co-ringmasters of the main tent where the mascots performances are held, making sure everything runs smoothly. Roxanne is the mascots and glamrocks make up artist, as well as offering to do make up/face paint for any patrons that came by her tent (for a price, of course). And Monty would roam around the circus grounds as a strongman showing off his incredible strength. He also has a tent for this, but he was mostly supposed to roam around and sometimes try and make people swing by his tent, mostly so they would buy his merch.
-Chica being the first to be reintroduced has an effect on her character below ground, with her hearing the news and trying her best to dress herself up in whatever scraps she could find to look like her mermaid counterpart, practicing her singing and dancing despite her condition so she could prove that she could be just as good as the hologram if she just got a few repairs.
-Roxanne is headless, having lost her head in her tussle with the Mimic. But she still has control of both her body and head, carrying around her decapitated head in her arms.
-Vannie/Cassie cares about Goldie soso much that's her new bestie<33 Friendship ended with Gregory, Goldie is new best friend<3 (I'm so sorry Gregory)
-Vannie is also known as Vengeful Vannie, but usually shortened to just 'Vannie'. A callback to the "Vengeful Spirit" aka Cassidy, because I think the parallels between the two are neat<3 (THIS MEANS NOTHING LORE WISE IT'S JUST A NAMING THING.)
-Some of the stuff at Balloon Circus was bought from the carnival mentioned to be across the street from the Pizzaplex in the TFTPP epilogues, and rebranded to fit with the new Fazbear theming
Tumblr media
I wanna talk more about these guys later- not sure what else exactly to do with them, but if anybody has any questions then feel free to send 'em to my inbox! I'll be more than happy to reply to the best of my abilities<3

My favorite fnf mods:
(This list has been updated on March 7, 2024)
I started playing friday night funkin since Sarvente's mod came out, but got interested in the game thanks to a remix of Dad battle made by Retrospecter. I have been playing from then until now, and although the game has dropped in popularity I still enjoy it a lot. It's one of my favorite games in general, I haven't gotten so addicted to a game since geometry dash came out hahaha (one of my favorites too) By the way, currently the mods I look forward to the most are: Fnf Classified, vs Cartoon cat, immumus showdown, vs Mario pc port, arcade archives, blank pages and crimson carnival. When they come out we'll see if this list changes or gets bigger… unless they are canceled as usually happens :v
There are some mods like indie cross and vs Impostor that I haven't been able to play because my PC is a potato, but someday when I have money to buy a new computer I'll play them and probably update this list.
These are also my favorites, so I couldn't leave them out:
20- Cassette girl. 19- vs V-TAN. 18- Livid lycanthrope. 17- Flavor rave. 16- Classified. 15- Antiphaty. 14- Twimsomnia. 13- Doki doki take over. 12- Vs Fnaf 1, 2 and 3.
11- Spooky Saturday scare:
This mod exceeded all my expectations, especially since I had no expectations XD. I didn't even know it existed so I downloaded it out of curiosity when it came out, and wow, it was extremely good. My favorite part was the whole process to unlock the song "Imscared", it was a lot of fun to investigate, I really look forward to the next update.
Tumblr media
10-Fnf graffiti grooving:
I played it a few days ago, and wow, I liked it more than I expected. One thing I really like about fnf is the huge number of characters, both original and those created by the community, and when they appear as cameos in a mod I always feel a little emotional hahaha. Aesthetically it is beautiful, the part of the train in the dark is top tier, and Sinester is one of the songs that I liked playing the most, and one of my favorites in general.
Tumblr media
9-Lofi funkin:
I really don't have much to say here, I played this mod the same day it came out, at home it was 12 and something, so I finished playing it at 2:30 in the morning, that day was not the best and the mod made me forget the bad moment of that day, so I really enjoyed playing it. And well, the mod is very beautiful, the songs are very funny and, honestly, it is a good de-stresser.
Tumblr media
8-Fnf Funkscop:
Ok, I had to edit this, because what I just played is amazing… I mean, how come this mod has gone so under the radar? The songs are too good, and it perfectly adapts the style of the playstation 1. I liked it a lot, I didn't expect much and it ended up being one of the best I've ever played.
Edit (30/11): Ok I'm editing this again, it's only been two days since I posted this and I've already changed it 3 times lol. Today while I was working I watched a 2-hour video about the history of petscop... and my friend, what a great crap, whoever thought of such a story has talent.
Tumblr media
7-Viernes noche webiando:
Aquí voy a hablar español al chile (nunca mejor dicho :v). Bueno este mod lo jugué cuando salio hace como un año, y en su momento me pareció entretenido sin más, nada muy destacable tampoco, pero hermano, con la actualización paso de ser un 7 a un 100 nmms. El esfuerzo que le pusieron a este mod es una cosa de locos, si hasta los actores de voz de pulentos colaboraron, además del pinche derker que me sorprendió mucho verlo haciendo la voz de Bodoque XD, y es que el amor que desprende por todos lados es una cosa muy bonita. El mod en si es de altísimo calidad, los sprites y diseño de personajes son espectaculares, pero para mi lo mejor fueron las canciones, amigo, QUE BUENAS SON LAS CANCIONES DE ESTE MOD, no hay ni una que no suene mal. Así que si, puesto 6 para CHILE y su increíble mod!!!
Tumblr media
6-Fnf Funk mix:
Well, we got to the heavyweights, I loved this mod, I played it two months ago I think, and I thought it was super fun, I liked all the retro aesthetics they worked with, and my friend, the songs are very good, besides Mario bros it's an important part of my childhood, and seeing it so well represented here was a nice gift. I only find one problem with this mod, and it is that it is very difficult for those who are just starting to play, dying if you miss 3 notes is very difficult, but with practice you can do it.
Tumblr media
5-Fnf hololivefunk:
It's one of the first mods I played, and I only wanted to play it because of killer scream :v . Honestly, I follow few vtubers, the one I followed the most was Rushia (D':) and it was because I liked her character, but going back to the mod, I liked the story a lot, it has a simple but very beautiful story, and well, at some point I grew fond of the character of Aloe, so on that side they hit the nail on the head. On the other hand, it was the first time I completed a song that was impossible for me, when I finished red and black after playing for almost 3 hours… I felt an impressive satisfaction XD. Very good mod… it also has a killer scream so it adds more points. Now with the update that they released I must say that it is one of the best mods that I have played, it is extremely entertaining.
Tumblr media
4-Fnf baddies:
A similar case to that of graffiti groovin, I really like it when I see characters I know making cameos, and in the case of this mod, week 1 is the one I liked the most, I loved the tremendous lore they invented hahaha. Although it is true that when this mod came out there were all kinds of controversies, I focused more on the gameplay and the quality with which they do things, and in the case of baddies, they do that part very well. Por cierto soy Latino, de paso Venezolano, así que la semana de Jasmine me hizo sentir como cuando estas en una de esas fiestas familiares raras a altas horas de la madrugada XD.
Tumblr media
3-Hotline 024:
I've been waiting for this mod for months, I've been following saruky on all her social networks waiting for her to announce the release of the demo… and when she announced it and it was available… I ran to download it. And honestly, in general terms, this seems to me the best mod that has come out with indie cross. It has everything I like, very good design and quality, crossovers and music, THE MUSIC IS BRUTAL. And well, I don't have much more to say, it's too good and fun.
Tumblr media
2- Mario´s Madness:
Well, this wasn't expected. Unlike many other people, I enjoy horror mods. It's true that there's an oversaturation of them, but there are many that are really good, and in this case, we have the perfect example of a well-made horror mod. Mario's Madness never caught my attention; I played V1 and didn't think much of it, so I wasn't eagerly awaiting its return. I'm more excited for Rerun, but the day came, the mod was released, and I downloaded it, and I can only say that it's a masterpiece of this community. The story is incredibly well told, the songs are spectacular, and the mechanics, brother, the mechanics are insane. Each song is different from the others, especially Paranoia; that song has been one of the most incredible things I've seen in this community. The final battle was brutal; the entire introduction to the fight, the sections, and especially the unexpected ending it had. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS MOD IS TOO GOOD! EVEN THE CREDIT SONG IS AMAZING, IT MAKES NO SENSE. For all the experience this mod left me with (and because I've been listening to the songs for 2 months now), it takes second place. We just need Rerun to come out, and we'll see if Mario holds his place against Sonic.
Tumblr media
1-Friday night crunchin:
Please give support to this mod, I beg you :v , it seems to me that it has little support compared to what the mod offers. I mean friend, HOW GOOD IS THIS MOD!!! The first time I played it I completely fell in love with Legacy (my favorite song in all fnf with morten obire), and with the latest update that brought Threat and Rumor I just like the mod even more. I just don't know how to explain it, everything in this mod seems so good to me, the menu, the sprites, how they tell the story, and the freeplay songs, which is the best I've played since this game came out. I don't know, fnf crunchin is my favorite mod, I just love it. Interesting fact, I've been hearing rumor since I started doing this.

I'm your huckleberry (Tombstone 1993) (Doc Holliday)
Description:
The joys of modern inventions and miracles are often taken for granted. Your hungry or thirsty? Get something from the fridge or make it. You need to go somewhere? Drive or call an uber. Your hurt? Go to the doctor.
Your bored? Watch a movie, play video games, watch videos on the internet, talk to people without ever leaving your house.
Some much time is in our hands... but back in the 19th century... you wouldn't last very long.
Diseases are rampant, gun violence is higher, no modern technology, barely any good medicine, almost all of your favorite food doesn't exist and most of the people are rude as hell. But... That doesn't mean all of them were so bad. Love was not something most people in this time really cared about. At least, in the town of Tombstone, Arizona.
After falling asleep with a nice looking stone you bought at a small stand at the carnival, your whole world becomes the opposite. Six people from the past discover you unconscious and alone in the blistering heat and offer help but it was their help that let you meet the most amazing man you've ever met.
John Henry "Doc" Holliday.
Chapter 2
Previous ~ Next
...... ........ ..... .... W............... ..... W... .......... ........... .... Wak.......pp...... ............. ..... ........ Wake........p...... ........ ............. ..... Wake up!!!
You snapped your eyes open and your vision was a bit blurry. A very bright light made you shield your eyes from the light and turn away. You quickly noticed that your bed wasn't comfortable at all and the lack of blankets around you was replaced with blistering heat from the sun. You quickly opened your eyes and rubbed your eyes to see that you were definitely not in your bed anymore but instead outside on the ground. "Ma'am"? You froze in fear. "Are you alright"?
You looked towards the sound of the unknown voice and saw a man with a handlebar moustache, a black hat and looking concerned. You gasped and crawled backwards. "Ma'am, relax! I'm not here to hurt you".
"Where am I"? You looked around and saw that you were in a completely different place and then felt relieved that your phone and solar panel charger were right beside you. You quickly snatched them which made the man quickly place his hand on his belt. "Wyatt" a feminine voice called out in fear. "Don't! She's just a girl"!
"Girl or not" an older masculine voice said, "She could be a threat". You finally noticed a large old looking old western wagon with horses tied to the back of it. There were two other men in old, black and dapper looking outfits, all with moustaches and looking concerned and three women in nice but old dresses with their hair done up all nicely. "You an actor? I've never seen clothes like those before".
"No". You tried getting up, but the man named Wyatt said darkly, "Get up, slowly". His voice and intimidating stance made you cower so a woman in a white and polka dotted dress got off the wagon and rushed towards you. "Wyatt, stop! You're scaring the poor girl". She helped you stand up and she reassured you. "Allie" the older man said cautiously. "Keep your distance. She could be dangerous".
"Oh Virgil, she looks so defenseless. Are you alright, dear" the woman known as Allie asked so sweetly.
"I... I'm so confused" you uttered.
"You must be. You look like you're seeing a ghost". You didn't say anything and only froze. "Well, dear? Are you lost"?
"Where the hell am I"?
The woman gasped in horror like she had witnessed murder and said, "Now where on earth did a young lady like you learn such a horrid word"?
"What"?
"Proper women should never talk like men" she said like a mother scolding her child.
"I don't know where your getting the impression that I'm..." you cleared your throat and then spoke in a British accent, "a proper young lady" and then you spoke normally, "but I'm not. Trust me". You could hear one of the men trying not to laugh and Allie was a bit taken aback by that response. "Uhh... Let's go back to the beginning" you suggested. "Where am I"?
"You should know where you are dear".
"Well, I don't know".
"Alright" the man known as Wyatt said stepping towards you. "What's the last thing you remember? Go as far back as you can".
"Well, I was sleeping in bed. Before that, I came home after going to a carnival, which was a huge waste of time. I bought some stone from some old hag which cost me all cash and some from my bank. I was gonna use that cash to buy funnel cakes but instead I--"
"Hold on, slow down. How did you get here? Right here".
"I don't know. I have no fucking idea".
Allie and the two other women gasped in horror and one of the men started laughing. "Why must you speak like that"?
"You're quite the woman. I've never met one with a dirty mouth" one of the men said. You just grabbed your head in frustration. None of this was making any sense and you had a million questions that you couldn't ask without feeling like they didn't make sense. "Miss, what's wrong"?
"I'm so confused. Who are you guys anyways" you asked trying to simmer down.
"Wyatt Earp, and that's my wife, Mattie, over there". You looked over and saw a woman give a shy wave.
"Pleasure to meet you", a much younger looking man came over to see you with his woman walking with him. "Morgan Earp, and this is Lousia, my wife".
"A pleasure. Virgil Earp, and this is my wife, Allie" he said walking over with his wife, Allie.
"Yeah uhh, it's nice to meet you all" you said trying not to freak out. "My name's (Y/n) (L/n)".
"Pleased to meet, (y/n)" Louisa said shaking your hand. "You have such a beautiful name".
"Thanks. Now, here's another question. Where are we" you asked once again. Wyatt pointed towards an old looking western town about 100 meters from you all. "You see that town there. Thats the small town of Tombstone. That's where were headed".
"And... Where is Tombstone located"?
"Arizona" Morgan said in an obvious tone. You them threw your hands up in defeat and said, "I'm dead"! You turned around and took some steps away from them and kept saying, "I'm dead! I'm so dead"!
"(Y/n)? What's wrong" Louisa said coming after you to take your arm and try to comfort you. "I don't know how I got here! I don't understand! There's no service out here, so I can't call anybody and I'm stranded"! Call someone? They didn't know what you were talking about but didn't question it yet.
"Everything will be fine, (Y/n)" Louisa said, "You can come with us. We'll help you".
"That's not a good idea" Wyatt said. "However she got here, I'm pretty sure she can find her way home".
"Wyatt! We can't leave her out here" Louisa said and it looked like the other women agreed. "She doesn't have water or a horse".
"Please, I have no service and I can't call anybody".
"What do you mean call someone" Virgil asked getting suspicious.
"You know" you pulled out your phone and disconnected the solar panel charger from it. "My phone. There's no service, I already checked it-"
"What is that thing"?
"Uhhh... My cell phone". You held it up a little bit and they didn't know what to think of it. "What? Have you never seen a cell phone before"?
"Can't say I have" Virgil said. You were taken aback by this and asked an enticing question. "Wait a minute... What year is it"?
"1881, why" Allie said. You laughed softly in denial. "Come on, seriously. It's still 2021, right"?
The men then started to roar in laughter. "What have you been drinking" Morgan asked through his laughter. The women weren't sure what to say and stayed silent. You just sighed and unlocked your phone to play a random song. The loud music quickly shut the men up and stunned them. "What is that sound"? The men looked over and saw that the little device was now illuminated with light and looked like a small picture but then saw that it looked like it was alive. The look on their faces was priceless.
"What's wrong, boys" you asked mockingly. "Oh, don't worry. It won't hurt you". You couldn't help but smile at their reactions.
"Where did you get that thing" Wyatt asked getting serious.
"The future. I'm from there" you said in a funny way, "and it's crazy but manageable". It couldn't be denied any longer. You are indeed from the future. "What year did you say you were from" Allie asked.
"Oh, 2021".
"That's more than a hundred years" Morgan exclaimed. "What's it like"!?
"Look" you said getting serious and stopping the music, "As much as I'd like to answer your questions, I'm very tired and confused. If you'll let me travel with you until I figure out what the hell is going on, I'll do whatever I can to help you and stay out of the way if you need me to be".
"Of course, come on" Louisa said as she guided you towards the wagon. "If you'd like, (Y/n), you may borrow some of my dresses-"
"NO! NEVER! I WILL NEVER WEAR DRESSES" you said loudly and getting defensive, but your tone made it sound more funny than serious.
"Why not? I have some that will look stunning on you-"
"I hate dresses" you said plainly. That little statement shocked them all. "Oh, how could you hate dresses? You're a young lady, you need to look like one".
"No thanks, I'm good".
"(Y/n)" Wyatt said getting your attention. "If you go into town with those clothes, people will not take you seriously and start to suspect something".
"No, they won't. They'll think I'm weird but, here's a fun fact for you. I don't give a fuck what people think of me". Morgan laughed once again, and the women were still appalled by the words you said. They would probably never get used to that. But seeing how serious you got made Wyatt back down. "Suit yourself". You all got back to the wagon and Wyatt lifted you up onto the wagon and the ride into town was awkward. They were all trying to wrap their heads around this situation.
"Are you sure you don't want to try on a dress" Allie asked playfully.
"Watch it" you said playfully replied which made the other girls laugh. They seem to already enjoy your company. Maybe this won't be so bad, but it still didn't make sense.
Hopefully this will all make sense soon...

I Only Wanna Be With You (Part 3 of 11 of Let Me Call You Sweetheart)
Tumblr media
Warnings for the entire story not just this chapter: Darkfic, out of character Eddie Munson, alternative universe, present day, Death, abuse (emotional, mental and physical, harassment, violence, torture, imprisonment, coersion, unrequited love, drugs, alcohol, illness, blood, gore, food disorder, mental illness, vampirism, hypnotism, weirdness, the upside down, bats, monsters
@munchabunch
You stumble back into the carnival, still hyped about the ride, "I can't believe it! We have to add that to our set!!" Jenna enthuses.
Harley laughs, "Most places only let us play 20 minutes, Master would take up almost half of that"
"But we can be ahead of the curve. The game isn't out yet, and when it does come out, well, already be able to play Master, people will be biting at the bit to have us play their dives," Terry says, holding Harley by the shoulders and then turns to you, "Think you can Master it on lead?" He wiggles his eyebrows at his lousy joke as you roll your eyes.
"I can give it a shot", you agree, and the rest of the band cheer.
"You know I saw something today, and I dunno, I think it's the answer to making it," you say dreamily.
"You saw hard work and perseverance", Jenna laughs.
"No, nothing as logical as all that." You grab your phone and show them the guitar, "This!"
"An old guitar?" Terry says, confused.
"I can't even describe it. I saw it and just felt like, this is it. The answer to everything. She was just hanging in the window there" you wave towards the 2nd hand store.
Harley takes your phone, "This is a BC Rich Warlock. I'm not sure it's exactly right for our sound." She says, looking it over again.
"I know it in my gut Harley, just like when I saw that squire, and it led me to all of you. But, this was just way more intense." You say, remembering gazing over it in the shop.
Terry frowns, "But that's why you love your strat, right? It's special?"
"So where are you gonna get the money? It's like $600, and it's battered to hell." Harley adds.
Jenna holds her arm gently, "Maybe they are right. They were right about the guitar, the job, and us. This might just be the level up."
You smile wide at Jenna and take your phone back, "Anyway, wanna do the walkthrough?" you say, putting your rubber gloves back on in an attempt to change the subject.
"Yeah!!" Terry shouts, jumping on your back, "Onward!"
"You gotta watch your face on my bat, dude", you chuckle, giving him a piggyback to the entrance.
Inside there is a mixture of scenes set up for photo opportunities with the games' bosses and some live actor parts where they jumped out and clean scared you to death.
One demodog animatronic made you jump so bad you fell into the gnarly tree next to you, and as you got up, you nicked yourself on something.
"Damn! Wounded by foliage!" You laugh, showing the others.
"Ouch, dude. That looks deep," Harley says, holding your hand up.
"Ah, tis but a scratch," you say, laughing, wrapping it up in a bandana from your pocket.
Terry is running over to the giant mind Flayer model and pointing at it enthusiastically. He holds out his hand to Harley, "Mrs Weller?" She runs over with Jenna to get their picture taken.
You have a look around elsewhere. Photos were not on the cards tonight; you could hear your father say another money pit in your head.
You sigh and take a little stroll around, and that's when you see the set of the model of the guitarist on the trailer.  His head is thrown back, holding the guitar, mid solo.
You quickly take your phone out and compare it to the guitar in the store. It looks almost the same, but the body colours are switched, and the woodwork is much darker overall.
You take a closer look at the model, the guitar is just a prop, not playable, but it still looked incredible.
"A real beauty isn't she," a voice says from behind you. You spin around quickly. It's the guy from the ride.
"She sure is", you nod, unable to contain your smile.
He looks you over and smiles back.
"I'm sorry about being weird earlier. I didn't recognise you. That's the first time I've seen any visual promo material for the new game" you apologise.
"Oh?" He says, tilting his head and folding his arms.
"Yeah, it was pretty stupid of me. It was the first run of the ride. Of course, some of the cast would be in it." You say faux face-palming yourself, "It's a real honour to meet you" You extend a handshake at him, forgetting about the bandana on your hand, "Ah shit, sorry."
He takes your injured hand in his own and opens up the bandana carefully. He takes a deep breath, "You should probably get that cleaned up properly."
"It's fine, really. It's only a scratch," you say, trying to sound tougher than you were.
He lets out a soft laugh, "Is that so?" He ties your hand back up gently, you can almost taste a tension between you, but you are unsure what kind it is.
"Say would you like to play her?" He asks, stepping backwards and standing at his full height.
"Who?" You say confused.
"The guitar?" He says, grinning widely.
"I thought it was just a prop?" You ask.
"Oh, this one? Yep, that's not real. But I happen to know where she is." He says coyly, "Wanna meet her?" He says, looking at the ground and then into your eyes.
You look back at your friends, who are in another photo queue, and then back at him. "Is it far?" You ask.
"Oh no, it's right behind the backdrop. They'll probably bring her out later for some clumsy-fingered oaf to play." the corner of his lip twitches as he says it.
"Will we get in trouble, and is it free?" You ask, concerned.
His smile widens, "With me, no one is going to give you any problems, trust me. I believe she doesn't charge on the first date". He raises an eyebrow and laughs.
You look back at your friends again. Terry gives you a wave and acts out, being annoyed at how long the queue is. You smile and give him a thumbs up.
"You know what...that would be amazing!"
He pushes his elbow at you to link his arm, and you accept.
You step behind the displays to the backdrop and step through it. It feels like you pass through a few curtains all at once until you get behind the scenes. The floor is filled with a subtle smoke machine, creating a low level of mist around a small stage area.
On it is the set-up from the ride, a bunch of amps and resting against them was the guitar. Your pulse races, and you want to say something, but all that comes out is a small whimper.
"Go get her then," he says, unlinking your arm, guiding you forward with his hand on the small of your back.
You nervously look back at him as he waves you on.
You take off your gloves, shove them in your back pocket and pick up the guitar gently. A hum from the strings rings out as you do, reverberating through your entire body, mind and soul.
You look the guitar over, its pick-ups glinting at you. Finally, gently plug it into the smallest amp and drape the strap around yourself.
She drops down between your waist and hips, and you feel a magnetic pull from the guitar's body, drawing your form to it. It feels like heaven.
It then you realise you've closed your eyes and have just been standing there for a while. You shake your head and laugh nervously, "Sorry, I'm not sure what happened there."
He says nothing, just moves his hand to indicate 'carry on.'
You reach into your back pocket, find a pick, and gently glide it from the pick-ups to the headstock. The guitar lurches and roars in the most beautiful way you've ever heard. It felt like kick-starting a giant motorcycle.
You look at your hands. They are shaking. Then look over at him again. He's closer now, "Go ahead...play something", his dark eyes glint in the low light.
"I'm sure I won't do her justice," you say with your words, but playing this thing is all your hands and brain can think about right now.
He smiles broadly, getting closer still, "She will let you know if she doesn't like it. Don't you worry about that"
What was he talking about? Was he high? Were you high?
Your hands are already positioned before you've even thought about what you want to play.
You laugh, look down at your hands, and say quietly to yourself, "Really? That one?"
You oblige your hands and strum the opening riffs of 'Highway to Hell'
You look up again, and he's closer again, this time with a sly smile and tapping his foot to a non-existent beat.
You botch a chord because the bandana gets in the way of the strings, and pain surges like an electric shock up your arm.
"Jesus Christ", you exclaim, shaking your arm.
"Told you," he says, laughing.
You stand there panting for a minute, looking him straight into his almost pitch-black eyes.
"Maybe, she's not for you," he says, stepping forward to take the guitar from you.
You feel yourself scowl at him, put your pick between your teeth, rip off the bandana from around your palm, and launch into the solo.
And that's when it happens.
You hear the whole song all around you, a 360 spin into a wall of sound, all the other instruments, as the guitar howls, and you sing along with it.
Singing was not something you did. That was Harley and Jenna's department. You'd never even heard yourself sound like this.
You're screaming the outro as your fingers dance across the strings.
"I'm on a highway to hell," you say quietly and drop to your knees, careful to hold the guitar, so she doesn't hit the floor.
You shakily take her from around you and place her back where she was. You rub your eyes, look around and hear a slow clap from the amps. He's leaning against them, biting his lip, looking at you expectantly.
You gulp and wipe the sweat from your brow, "Where can I get a guitar like that?" You ask with desperation.
He pouts, "Oh, this guitar...well, she's one of a kind..." He starts
"Well, how much is she" you snap and then quickly slap your hand over your mouth.
He smiles devilishly, "She's not for sale, I'm afraid, but..."
"But what?" You rush up to him and grab onto the lapels of his leather jacket, "But what??" You repeat.
He is not phased by your antics and gently strokes your arm, "She wasn't made alone. She has a twin" his eyes sparkle directly into yours.
Your eyes go wide, "I saw her. I saw her today! I knew it!" You feel like you've lost your mind.
"Oh, you did?" He smiles and runs his tongue over his teeth, "Well, isn't that such a delicious coincidence."
You look down and realise you are still gripping onto his jacket. You let go and step back, laughing awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Erm, I don't know what came over me, I think Erm...yeah, just all the excitement from the night and playing the guitar."
He smirks at you and smooths down his jacket, "Oh, no need for an apology, Y/N, my dear. I do love a good show. Maybe I could come to see your band sometime?"
You smile back at him, "That would be great...oh but um...do you like metal?"
He cackles, holding his sides, "Oh, I do like it here." He says quietly to himself and then turns back to you, "I do partake in metal, yes."
"Ah, good, that's kind of our genre." But then, something strikes you, "Hey, how did you know my name and that I was in a band?"
He laughs, "Well, you told me, of course, don't you remember?" He looks puzzled at you.
You laugh, but genuinely you didn't remember doing that at all. "I guess I did", you shrug, scratching the back of your neck awkwardly.
"Well, I've had a ball, but I've got places to be. I'll see you around, honey," he says, walking away.
"Hey, what's your name?" You call after him.
He spins on his heel, still walking away backwards, "Call me Eddie. Everybody does, darling."

@orderbourne asked: "I'm not sure how you like all of that horror crap. It's all so excessive..." He's totally not salty because he got scared by a scare actor. No way!
Unprompted IC asks: Accepting from mutuals!
At the sound of revving chainsaws, piercing screams, and guttural groans and growls, Sonia could only grin from ear to ear. Her autumn schedule left precious leisure time available at her disposal, and so she was determined to make use of every minute of it. But when the opportunity came to visit a Japanese theme park with several special horror exhibits through Halloween, she'd found herself with two tickets and no one to go with. So many of her old high school friends were already busy and couldn't make the journey to Osaka. So, instead she'd reached out to even more friends until, at long last, she'd cornered Jin Kisaragi into visiting the haunted theme park attractions with her.
She may have mentioned that there was a prestigious motorcycle shop not too far from the theme park in order to sweeten the deal, but he didn't need to know her methods of persuasion. Besides, she'd enjoy the likes of both roller coasters and motorcycles, and in the company of a member of Japanese law enforcement, there was little her parents could do to protest her safety, or lack thereof.
Tumblr media
"Excessive!?" She asked, laughing as the actor stumbled away. They were caught in the middle of a roaming zombie horde and one of them, with rotting skin, gaping wounds, and a prosthetic eye that had been attached to look like it had popped out of a socket and dangled against his cheek, had come up behind Jin to surprise him, demanding to eat his brains. It clearly had worked, Sonia unable to suppress her giggles at him being taken aback by just how convincing the actor was. It had been an excellent choice to visit, despite the three hour train ride from Tokyo (and a Jin Kisaragi who had zero interest in sharing both urban legends and case files from various serial killer cases on the way). At least he relented and showed her cat pictures about an hour in, when it looked like he wouldn't tolerate a single question more and wasn't about to get a nap or read a book during the journey. "Goodness, I find the frights to be exhilarating! Did you see the prosthetic eye on that actor? Was it not terribly lifelike!? Their makeup team is so very talented and he truly embodied the 'zombie' character he is meant to play tonight!"
Tumblr media
Unlike plenty of visitors who were clutching at their friends or partners, Sonia proceeded down the darkened street with a light step and glowing smile. She might have well been visiting Tokyo Disneyland for the first time and looking up at Cinderella's Castle in awe, if she was entirely normal that is, from the way she found herself dazzled by all of the sights around her. Instead, she'd stopped in front of a sign: Chucky's carnival of horrors one way, the classic Universal Monsters maze the opposite way, and a haunted ride based on Sadako from Ringu straight ahead.
"Which scare shall we try next!?" She asked him, not making any effort to hide her glee at the prospect. "All three of these look like such thrilling fun! Or we could try the interactive game based on Resident Evil! I hear there are themed delicacies to try there, like churros dyed to match the game characters. We should try one of those too!"
They would be staying right up until the park closed at this rate, much to her satisfaction.
