Image description: A comic panel of Barbara Gordon’s face. She has bright, wavy, long red hair and light skin. Her eyes are closed as she thinks, “A shame Dick has to return to Hudson University after his vacation! He surprises me by being such a good worker! I hope he’ll be more than a worthless playboy like that guardian of his—Bruce Wayne!” End ID

The Joker: A Comic Masterlist
Disclaimer: This list will be subject to changes (comic addition and comic removal), as well as possible changes to its labeling system as this list is continually adjusted. If you see that a certain comic is missing please message me and make sure to include the comic's official title, number, and series of origin. The timeline organization of both single issue and collected editions is based on biased research.
Single issues with several following numbers are to be read as a collected edition.
This list will also include a link to where the comics below can be read for free.
Batman Comic's 1940 to 2011

I’m redesigning my FNAF AU in Gacha life 2, starting with my boy, Evan Afton/the Crying Child. The Transcript for the description and extras are below the image, but in short he’s a social and kind, but timid and sensitive non-verbal nerdy kid, who is also trans exploring, and survived the bite of 83.
Tumblr media
Evan Afton was born on July 23, 1975, as one of the afton twins to William and Clara afton, and he and his twin sister Elizabeth were also the younger siblings of Michael Afton. Evan Afton was born with Autism Spectrum Disorder, which was also shared with his brother, mother and aunt Mary, which led to him being non-verbal, mostly communicating via sign language, pantomiming and pointing, and at first could only produce whimpers, mumbling and babbling at first, which made it difficult at first for anybody to communicate with him. Despite this however, he was a rather social and kind boy, but was also rather timid and sensitive, often crying a lot when under high stress, feeling overwhelmed, something changing to his routine or environment, or when scared or bullied. He was also sometimes brave from time to time, but mostly kept to himself and tried to avoid confrontation, and was also what many could describe as a nerd, developing a special interest in Space and Sci-Fi, Comic Books about superheroes (especially Batman and Spider-Man) and also some things that other kids his age would consider way to childish for his age, more specifically the Fredbear and Friends cartoon, and Fredbear’s family diner, in addition to having many plushies and toys. His wild imagination also led him to hallucinate “imaginary friends” or “nightmares” at night, which took the distorted visage of the characters of his favorite show. He was nearly killed in a prank gone wrong on his birthday in 1983 by his older brother Michael, and although he thankfully survived, it heavily damaged him, leaving him with a disfigured face with a fake eye, some memories lost or fractured that had to be told back to him, and him using stilts to walk at first before he learned to walk again. After this, he became much more social and outgoing, and also learned to speak more thanks to his family and his friends, but was mostly the same as he was before the bite. Though he was unfortunately and tragically killed on June 15th, 1985 by his own father in what would be known as the “missing children’s incident”, which occurred on the birthday of his best friend, Cassidy Hirose, at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. He and Cassidy would possess his favorite character, Fredbear, aka Golden Freddy.
EXTRA STUFF
•Evan likes to play with the dolls of his sister, Elizabeth, often playing tea parties with his and her toys, and Liz often joins in on this. Due to the fact most of her friends and most people he gets along with the best are girls, he often thinks about if he’d be better off as a girl then a boy. This also led to him often putting on either his mom’s or sister’s clothes at home and “experimenting” to see if he likes being a girl. With the notable exception of his father, his mom, sister, close friends and even his brother support him on this, and help keep it a secret from others, and William at first until he discovered his youngest son’s habits in 1983 prior to the bite.
•Due to him being rather sensitive, being a nerd who’s into “dumb kiddy stuff”, being slightly chubby and unable to speak, Evan wasn’t very popular at school, though he’d often avoid any confrontation to avoid getting into trouble. His only friends outside of his families were Charlie Emily, Cassidy Hirose, Max and Mia Jones (the Plush Bunny kid and the Toy Girl) and Cindy Hirose (the Pigtail Girl). After the bite however, people didn’t want to mess with him out of respect due to how traumatic the bite incident was, though he would still haft to rely on Cassidy, Elizabeth and/or Cindy protecting him from any bullies. He’d also hang out with Elizabeth and her friend group, which also contained Mia and Charlie.
•Evan really doesn’t like his dad that much, cus William often ignored him and didn’t pay much attention to him, apart from the time he made the Ballora animatronic from a drawing Evan made of his mom, which he liked but didn’t understand why ballora looked so… revealing. He is most close with his caring but protective mom, and aspires to be just like her when he’s older, though it does cause him to be labeled a “mama’s boy”. He gets along very well with his twin sister, Elizabeth, often enjoying playing together with his sister, though he really doesn’t like when/doesn’t understand why Elizabeth makes fun of others and thinks of herself as the best and most pretty. And at first he and Michael (along with Michael’s friends) have a love/hate relationship, with Evan not really liking whenever Mike and his friends (who he considers as surrogate older siblings) tease and scare him for fun with there masks, but appreciates them for standing up for him as well, and whenever they have good natured fun that doesn’t involve him getting scared or teased for being a crybaby or a mama’s boy. After the bite, Michael and his friends were much more careful with Evan and were much, much more careful and kind to him, with Evan greatly appreciated. His best friend is definitely Cassidy, both cus they both love Sci-Fi and Space, and Cassidy often stands up for him and she often beats up anyone who messes with him or their friends, though Cassidy likes to playfully tease his nerdy tendencies, and eventually they developed crushes on each other and got into a cutesy relationship, often mimicking there parents and going on play dates. He gets along well with Charlie, Mia, Max and Cassidy’s sister Cindy, though he doesn’t really like Cindy teasing and making fun of him, and doesn’t really understand why Charlie idolizes Michael, and he and Max try to avoid playing with Charlie and Mia to avoid getting dirty with paint, stickers and/or mud. And he gets along well with Susie and Elizabeth’s friends, though they don’t want to openly be friends with him out of being teased for it, with the exception of Susie after the bite incident.
•the whole “Evan getting locked up in the parts and service room” thing from FNAF4 actually occurred when Charlie died in Christmas of 1982, where Charlie’s bullies locked him, Cassidy, Liz and Charlie’s older brother Sammy in the parts and service room to avoid them intervening with their prank on Charlie. Evan recorded them with a hidden recorder and later confronted the 3 bullies a few days after Charlie was reported dead, and ended up getting the bullies what they’d deserve, though he still feels guilty for Charlie’s death.
•he leads a “Fredbear and Freinds Fan Club” at school, where it’s only him, Liz, Susie, Mia, Jeremy and Fritz, and a few others. And he also has an original superhero he’s named called “the Blue Rattlesnake”, who’s a stand in for himself. He also became a big transformers fan, helped by the fact Cassidy gave him some of her Diaclone toys from Japan back in 1983, and also writes some transformers fanfics, in addition to fanfics of fredbear and freinds and his other favorite IPs. His favorite toy is Large Fredbear Plush toy he had since he was a baby.

The Death of Jason Todd is such a weird moment, and for me makes the birth of Tim kinda all the more special
basically the 1980s you see the birth of the adult comic fan, the late 1970s and early 80s sees comics geared at high school and college age guys, the X-men in 1975 for Marvel and the New Teen Titans in 1980 for DC.
Come 1986-87 you have the adult fans, and for Batman two works by Frank Miller, 1987's Batman: Year One and 1986's The Dark Knight Returns, both project a grim serious "for adults" NOT FOR KIDS! Batman who in both cases does not have a Robin (well DKR kinda does but we'll get there) most importantly DKR is presented as the future of DC comics as having taken place in the main timeline and were we're going. And Batman's shift to a darker more serious more adult character is set off by... the death of Jason Todd.
So you have a camp of comic fans, particularly Batman, fans who wanted to be taken seriously as adults and not have their thing their hobby characterized as "for children" you also have fans, who feel like there should have only ever been one Robin, Dick Grayson. Remember Grayson was a main character in the wildly hugely to this day biggest selling ever New Teen Titans. Till Crisis in 1986 Jason Todd had the same word for word origin story as Dick, he was also a Circus kid, his family was the "Flying Todds" who fell to their deaths. it's not till 1987, only about a year before his death he's given his own famous tire stealing origin story (and black hair...)
Any ways its unclear to this day if fans really did vote to kill him, since there's always been a rumor one person set up an automated system to repeat call the line to kill him, the final difference between kill and not was 72 votes.
However I think in so many ways that makes Tim special because the writers saw what the fans did, saw that neckbeard rotten comic fan boy rage about wanting their adult grown up grim gritty solo Batman and said "no you are wrong, Batman needs a Robin" it's not just Tim saying that to Bruce it's the creators saying it to the fans.
okay this is gonna sound a bit weird but bear with me anon, if u ever like, want to expand on this u should write a post and send me the link so i can rb it cause i think its such an interesting read and it opens up so many posible discussions and people wont be able to talk to u if ur an anon! people including me btw
that being said, it is interesting that the writers doubled down on tim after killing jason, knowing the writers hated jason! at least as far as i know, my sources are as unbiased as any dc fans so... probably biased
i think the person who originally wrote tim did indeed believe furiously that robin did not make the comic immature, he gave depth, but tim was always a... more serious robin, the quirky dialogue was cut a lot, imo, which im not complaining about, i do like the more serious batman tone, but its so fascinating to know why that shift probably came to happen
lastly i may be a dreamer but i chose to believe the poll was not manipulated, if only because of the fact that i would probably have voted to kill him off, and dont get me wrong, i love kid jason, but as a reader, wouldnt u wanna know what would happen, what it would do to bruce who was trying so hard? to dick who never trued as hard as he could? would there be another robin? how can u say no to that

Dick Grayson: The college years
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batman (1940) #217, Dec 1969
Personally, I like how dramatic Bruce and Alfie are in this one, acting like Dickie died or something rather then him just going to college. I do wish the reveal was on the next page though, for the best dramatic affect.
After this issue there’s a bunch of Robin solo adventures at college, mostly in Detective Comics (1937) and The Batman Family (1975-1978) but I think there are some in Batman too. Most of them were kinda meh but if you’re a Dick Grayson stan or just want to know more about pre-crisis Dickie then these are great.
Tumblr media
Batman (1940) 330, Dec 1980
Dick’s dropped out of college. Also the start of Bruce and Dicks strained relationship which I was actually looking for.
The issue is mostly about someone putting a hit out on Batman, definitely a good read.

Dancing/Teaching them to dance to Latin music
Rating: T for handsy partners
Character x GN!Latin!Reader
Tumblr media
This is a grab bag of characters from different fandoms and some general headcanons I have about them dancing to Latin music with you! For ones that are like fantasy/sci-fi, just imagine it is the Latin equivalent of music in said universe.
These are my own personal thoughts on these characters and I know not everyone will agree and that’s okay! I hope you still enjoy these!
Disclaimer: I can’t dance.
Serious disclaimer: I already struggle with my cultural identity enough and feel comfortable enough to post things like this here. How I experience/d my culture may not be how you experience/d yours and vice versa.
If you see something and don’t like how I’ve interpreted it, described it, what have you, then just move on please.
I am not any less of who I am.
Now onto the fun stuff!
In order, this list is comprised of characters from:
The Warriors (1979) Apex Legends Devil May Cry Star Wars Batman (not DC, just Batman Characters) Marvel
The Warriors (1975)
Swan - You will have to coax him to the dance floor, but he has surprisingly great rhythm. Definitely catches you off guard when he throws in a spin here and there. He’s got the basic moves down and you can help him learn from there.
Ajax - He doesn’t want to dance, but when he sees you moving your hips in that way, he might finally be convinced. You need to be a very patient teacher to help him because he’s just trying to grind against you and isn’t entirely taking your lesson serious. Don’t let it put you off though, when you give him that look that you mean business, he’ll settle down. He’s not the best dancer, but he’s got the spirit! Definitely does better with the faster paced music.
Vermin - Oh boy. He’s also got the spirit, but his dancing is all over the place. He’s having a great time with you, but you’re gonna have to help him reel it in! He’s a great listener and learns the basics pretty fast. You could totally bring him to a family function and he will be the life of the party, he’ll get along great with everyone.
Apex Legends
Loba - You don’t have to ask her to dance and she is not asking you, she’s telling you to come dance. But in a playful way! She knows the moves and has great rhythm so 10/10 a great partner. If you are the one she is having to teach, she’ll gladly do so. She will have to remind herself to let you take the lead if that’s the position you’re trying for. She’s a great teacher and focuses on relaxing you, playing off of whatever moves you bring.
Revenant - No
Kaleb Cross - He’s never really had much time for dancing so he’s clueless. If you guys are out and you ask him to dance he will politely decline. You’ll have to teach him in private. He’s frustrated when he keeps messing up, but play it lighthearted and he’ll relax and get it down. He’s happy to oblige your request for a dance the next time.
Mirage - He’s good! Too good. You can’t keep up. He’s being super extra with his moves, the spins, the dips, he’s doing them all. It’s gonna be a fun time, but you’ll be out of breath by the end of it. He might miss a step here and there, but recovers quickly.
Octane - Huapango and Duranguense are his favorite and he’s definitely got the legs for it. You guys are going to be that couple. You know the one, the one that’s bouncing all over the dance floor. He also loves Zapateado. He’s not one for the slower dances, he’s got way too much energy for that.
Devil May Cry
Dante - He can definitely already dress the part, but doesn’t know the steps all that well. You might try to teach him, but he’s really a go with the flow kind of guy so he’ll tell you to not worry so much about it. Just vibe with the music and it sort of just comes to him as he follows your lead. Keeps up way better than expected at your family function when Payaso de Rodeo comes on. He’s got a huge grin on his face as he flies around the dancefloor.
Nero - Shy boy. Zero clue as to what he’s doing and doesn’t want to embarrass himself. He can’t really keep up with the faster paced music so a slower dance is more his speed. Really gets into the rhythm with Bachata.
Nico - If you ask her to dance, she is so down! Hell yeah! She knows how to move, too. 10/10 great partner whether she’s following or taking the lead. Whatever she doesn’t know, she picks up really fast. Great party guest, your family adores her!
V - He’s also shy, but he sees you sitting there watching all the other couples dancing. He’ll be observant of everyone else’s moves for awhile and then ask you to dance. He’s a laid back type of dancer, he doesn’t need to do all the fancy footwork to make sure you guys fit right in and have a good time.
Vergil - Oh dear. We all saw his demon form bust a move so we know he’s got it in him somewhere deep deep down. He’s into the classics which means whatever he dances with you will be a rendition of some kind of ballroom dancing. He’s read enough about Salsa, Merengue, and Paso Doble type dances to make something happen. It’s a little old fashioned and prim and proper how he moves. Throw a little hip dip into the mix and he’s looking at you like you have just committed the biggest scandal and his face might get red, but he’ll slowly start to get the hang of it.
Star Wars
Qui-Gon Jinn - You don’t have to ask, he’s already holding his hand out for you to take. He’s a Jedi, so you might hesitate especially if you are, too, but he assures you that the two of you have nothing to hide. You affections for each other do not consume the other and he comforts you with the fact that he understands and respects the position that the two of you are in. He’s very familiar, though not proficient, with the steps.
Obi-Wan Kenobi - You invite him to a family function and try to guide him to where everyone is dancing. He’s pretty reserved and insists that he’s alright, but seeing you walk away trying to hide your disappointment convinces him. He’s not one for dancing so you’ll have to show him the steps. Wait does his leg really go there? This feels really intimate to him and he might have some objections, but you assure him that it’s totally normal and not as scandalous as he might think.
Cassian Andor - He dances and he dances well. 14/10 with rhythm. There’s a cantina you two frequent where you go dancing. He loves to dance to any style. You guys are definitely the “regular couple” who look like they know what they’re doing and the dance comes naturally to the two of you. Whether it’s platonic or romantic, he is a welcome staple at your family gatherings. If you show up without him be prepared for an interrogation: “donde esta Cassian?” “Cassian no es contigo?”
Din Djarin - You’re both alone on the Razorcrest and you’re still riding the high from being at whatever cantina/party you guys were at, dancing in the cockpit. You coax him into joining you for a dance. He’ll reluctantly admit he has zero clue as to what he’s doing. He’s willing to learn, but timid with his movements. Bring him to a family function and he’ll shy away, he does better around people who are less likely to see him again.
Boba Fett - Has some knowledge of this style of dancing, enough that you two don’t look totally lost in the sauce. He’s not so sure how socially acceptable his leg/hand placements are or the way you two are moving when you have to stand really close, but with some assurance from you, he’ll get the hang of it. Once he gets comfortable, you two are definitely that spicy couple on the dance floor at the cantina!
Batman
Bruce Wayne - He only knows the basic steps Alfred taught him, enough to get by at parties and social gatherings. He’s nervous, but wants to learn for you. After the first time he failed to get the steps right at whatever party you guys were at, he went home and reluctantly asked Alfred to help him learn to dance so he could surprise you next time. He adores being around your family, the closeness of the gatherings warms him and your family makes sure to make him feel welcome. Bruce even has Alfred help him cook so he can pitch in and bring a dish.
Alfred Pennyworth - Oh, he knows how to dance! Mostly ballroom, but he can adapt and pick up on things quite fast. If you bring him to the family function, he’s sure to impress everyone with his manners and his moves. All the tias at the party are silent and won’t give you any lip! He prefers slower dances with you because he’s not so focused on the steps so much as he is on you. 15/10 your family wants him back at the next carne asada. Oh and tell him to bring the Batfam! They sound lovely!
Harvey Dent - Him, dance to this? No. He’s a big guy and hard to miss which means any mistakes he might make will be noticeable. He wants to save himself the embarrassment. Maybe when a slower song comes on. He’s really sorry, but promises to somehow make it up to you. He’s definitely beating himself up. If you manage to get him out on the dance floor, he’s too worried about how he looks to focus on just enjoying himself.
Two-Face - Does not give a single fuck about how he looks. He knows a few moves and will surprise you with some fancy spins. He’s wayyy more confident in his abilities than Harvey. He’s more open to learning what he doesn’t know and definitely enjoys the close contact with you. Is it you or is it hot in here??
Bane - 15/10. Being from Santa Prisca, the man knows what he’s doing. He knows how to dance and has the best footwork despite his size. If anything, he’s teaching you how to dance. Romantic/sensual dances like Bachata are his favorite to do with you. Always welcome to the family gatherings.
Black Mask - Similar to Bruce, he knows enough to get by. What gets him interested in learning is being out at a club and seeing other guys asking you to dance. That is not going to fly. He’ll guide you to the dance floor and be open to your teachings if it mean getting everyone else to back off of you. He picks up pretty well and forgets being paranoid/angry. 9/10 he is very interested in doing this again with you.
Jason Todd - Oh yeah, he’s got this down. Not afraid to spice it up on the dance floor with how he holds you or where his hands are. Dancing with him is intense when you’re among strangers like at a club, but with family he’s much more tame. Being with the Batfam, he’s great with your siblings and cousins. He’s definitely the bad boy/rebel of the bunch, but he’s yours!
Marvel
Steve Rogers - Well he did kinda skip this part of his life, but if he backed down from a challenge then he wouldn’t be the hero he is today. You pull him to the dance floor and he is all for it. The basics are there, but he’ll need some work. You mention returning to a club or a family gathering coming up and he asks that you practice some moves with him. To your surprise, he dances Cumbia pretty damn well.
Bucky Barnes - He’s still adjusting to just being Bucky again so he won’t come easily if you try to get him on the dance floor. Once he’s out there with you, he’s shy and reserved, suddenly it’s like he forgot how to even do a basic school side-to-side shuffle. Be patient and help him along and he’ll fall back into the flow of the moves. He really likes dancing Norteñas and loosen him up enough and he’ll come around to Cumbia.
Peter Parker - God he knows he can’t dance, but he really wants to impress you so before you guys go out, he researches latin dances and the music styles. He wants to be bold and take initiative so he asks you to dance first. He’s nervous at first and might ramble all the facts he learned during his research: did you know what is cited as the first cumbia outside of Columbia is "La Cumbia Cienaguera"? Totally just know that from a book he read and not during his late night deep dive on the internet. He’s an 8/10 on applying what he learned!
Loki - Are you sure this is how he’s supposed to hold you? This feels really intimate. Kinda wishing he hadn’t been goaded by Thor into asking you to dance. He’s the better dancer of the two of them, but it occurs to him now that he has no idea what he’s doing. He’s gonna ask you to trust him and he’ll improvise a lot, but somehow it works!
Ultron - That’s really cute. You’re so adorable. Wait, you’re serious?
Ulysses Klaue - No one can convince me that he can’t dance. I am firm in my belief that he can and he has way too much fun with it. Judging from the singing to Haddaway, he digs house music and has visited many a club. He’s traveled a lot so I have no doubt that he can do Latin dances. He’s a little silly about it so you’ll have to reel him in a bit.
Venom (not MCU, but still Marvel) - Eddie is down, but Venom is EXCITED. Yes, Venom would love to dance let’s go! It’ll be difficult to dance since Eddie and Venom will probably be at war with each other on how to go about moving in one body and with you since they both have different ideas of what they should be doing. You’ll help bring some balance between them; Eddie will be comfortable while Venom will still get to express themself.
✨✨✨
That’s it! These are ones I just had on the top of my head, there’s plenty others I could have done, but didn’t have much to write about or I’d need to go back and watch/read some stuff to get a better idea.

KIRK LANGSTROM & FRANCINE LANGSTROM in BATMAN FAMILY (1975)

I’m redesigning my FNAF AU in Gacha life 2, starting with my boy, Evan Afton/the Crying Child. The Transcript for the description and extras are below the image, but in short he’s a social and kind, but timid and sensitive non-verbal nerdy kid, who is also trans exploring, and survived the bite of 83.
Tumblr media
Evan Afton was born on July 23, 1975, as one of the afton twins to William and Clara afton, and he and his twin sister Elizabeth were also the younger siblings of Michael Afton. Evan Afton was born with Autism Spectrum Disorder, which was also shared with his brother, mother and aunt Mary, which led to him being non-verbal, mostly communicating via sign language, pantomiming and pointing, and at first could only produce whimpers, mumbling and babbling at first, which made it difficult at first for anybody to communicate with him. Despite this however, he was a rather social and kind boy, but was also rather timid and sensitive, often crying a lot when under high stress, feeling overwhelmed, something changing to his routine or environment, or when scared or bullied. He was also sometimes brave from time to time, but mostly kept to himself and tried to avoid confrontation, and was also what many could describe as a nerd, developing a special interest in Space and Sci-Fi, Comic Books about superheroes (especially Batman and Spider-Man) and also some things that other kids his age would consider way to childish for his age, more specifically the Fredbear and Friends cartoon, and Fredbear’s family diner, in addition to having many plushies and toys. His wild imagination also led him to hallucinate “imaginary friends” or “nightmares” at night, which took the distorted visage of the characters of his favorite show. He was nearly killed in a prank gone wrong on his birthday in 1983 by his older brother Michael, and although he thankfully survived, it heavily damaged him, leaving him with a disfigured face with a fake eye, some memories lost or fractured that had to be told back to him, and him using stilts to walk at first before he learned to walk again. After this, he became much more social and outgoing, and also learned to speak more thanks to his family and his friends, but was mostly the same as he was before the bite. Though he was unfortunately and tragically killed on June 15th, 1985 by his own father in what would be known as the “missing children’s incident”, which occurred on the birthday of his best friend, Cassidy Hirose, at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. He and Cassidy would possess his favorite character, Fredbear, aka Golden Freddy.
EXTRA STUFF
•Evan likes to play with the dolls of his sister, Elizabeth, often playing tea parties with his and her toys, and Liz often joins in on this. Due to the fact most of her friends and most people he gets along with the best are girls, he often thinks about if he’d be better off as a girl then a boy. This also led to him often putting on either his mom’s or sister’s clothes at home and “experimenting” to see if he likes being a girl. With the notable exception of his father, his mom, sister, close friends and even his brother support him on this, and help keep it a secret from others, and William at first until he discovered his youngest son’s habits in 1983 prior to the bite.
•Due to him being rather sensitive, being a nerd who’s into “dumb kiddy stuff”, being slightly chubby and unable to speak, Evan wasn’t very popular at school, though he’d often avoid any confrontation to avoid getting into trouble. His only friends outside of his families were Charlie Emily, Cassidy Hirose, Max and Mia Jones (the Plush Bunny kid and the Toy Girl) and Cindy Hirose (the Pigtail Girl). After the bite however, people didn’t want to mess with him out of respect due to how traumatic the bite incident was, though he would still haft to rely on Cassidy, Elizabeth and/or Cindy protecting him from any bullies. He’d also hang out with Elizabeth and her friend group, which also contained Mia and Charlie.
•Evan really doesn’t like his dad that much, cus William often ignored him and didn’t pay much attention to him, apart from the time he made the Ballora animatronic from a drawing Evan made of his mom, which he liked but didn’t understand why ballora looked so… revealing. He is most close with his caring but protective mom, and aspires to be just like her when he’s older, though it does cause him to be labeled a “mama’s boy”. He gets along very well with his twin sister, Elizabeth, often enjoying playing together with his sister, though he really doesn’t like when/doesn’t understand why Elizabeth makes fun of others and thinks of herself as the best and most pretty. And at first he and Michael (along with Michael’s friends) have a love/hate relationship, with Evan not really liking whenever Mike and his friends (who he considers as surrogate older siblings) tease and scare him for fun with there masks, but appreciates them for standing up for him as well, and whenever they have good natured fun that doesn’t involve him getting scared or teased for being a crybaby or a mama’s boy. After the bite, Michael and his friends were much more careful with Evan and were much, much more careful and kind to him, with Evan greatly appreciated. His best friend is definitely Cassidy, both cus they both love Sci-Fi and Space, and Cassidy often stands up for him and she often beats up anyone who messes with him or their friends, though Cassidy likes to playfully tease his nerdy tendencies, and eventually they developed crushes on each other and got into a cutesy relationship, often mimicking there parents and going on play dates. He gets along well with Charlie, Mia, Max and Cassidy’s sister Cindy, though he doesn’t really like Cindy teasing and making fun of him, and doesn’t really understand why Charlie idolizes Michael, and he and Max try to avoid playing with Charlie and Mia to avoid getting dirty with paint, stickers and/or mud. And he gets along well with Susie and Elizabeth’s friends, though they don’t want to openly be friends with him out of being teased for it, with the exception of Susie after the bite incident.
•the whole “Evan getting locked up in the parts and service room” thing from FNAF4 actually occurred when Charlie died in Christmas of 1982, where Charlie’s bullies locked him, Cassidy, Liz and Charlie’s older brother Sammy in the parts and service room to avoid them intervening with their prank on Charlie. Evan recorded them with a hidden recorder and later confronted the 3 bullies a few days after Charlie was reported dead, and ended up getting the bullies what they’d deserve, though he still feels guilty for Charlie’s death.
•he leads a “Fredbear and Freinds Fan Club” at school, where it’s only him, Liz, Susie, Mia, Jeremy and Fritz, and a few others. And he also has an original superhero he’s named called “the Blue Rattlesnake”, who’s a stand in for himself. He also became a big transformers fan, helped by the fact Cassidy gave him some of her Diaclone toys from Japan back in 1983, and also writes some transformers fanfics, in addition to fanfics of fredbear and freinds and his other favorite IPs. His favorite toy is Large Fredbear Plush toy he had since he was a baby.
