FNAF is my COMFORT GAME you have no idea. I wanna write down a TON of my headcanons here but god I have so many?? Also my personal ships if that's literally alright. (TW for a lot of Death/Killing in these. I'm literally so sorry but this is what you signed up for when you mentioned FNAF.)
order of spoilers: Timeline/Story | Headcanons | Ships
My idea of the timeline is basically like:
FNAF4/FNAF:SL > FNAF 2 > FNAF > FNAF 3 > Pizzaria Sim > UCN (aka Limbo for William Afton)
I like to think that FNAF 4 + SL happen at the same time? Solely because why not, but Fredbear is clearly there before all of them. I mostly go on the fact that the map for 4 is in SL, and I like to think that Michael is Chris (FNAF4/Crying Child)'s older brother, plus there being Elizabeth as Circus Baby. I can't choose between 1 & 2 being next in line, so really I alternate between the two? I have a hc that Michael & Jeremy r dating as well, and that Michael changed his name from Michael Afton to Mike Schmidt. (I also don't think he "died" and turned purple, I think that was more or less because he hallucinated it? Ennard was totally inside of him though.) FNAF 3 is absolutely next because Mr William Afton dies in the Spring Bonnie suit (Why doesn't Spring Bonnie have a special name like Fredbear? I'm suing.) and then Fritz works for the theme park!! Afton survives and Michael goes to own the business from Henry (Yknow, the dude from the books? Yeah no he totally owned the place.) Michael is killed by Henry, they both mcfucking die and bOOm limbo (UCN) :)
Headcanon time babyyy
- Charlie is the ghost that controls Puppet. She died outside of the Pizzaria from William and Henry is INCREDIBLY upset but doesn't know William did it lmao)
- Michael never "died" from the scooper/Ennard, he was just knocked out and magic voodoo shit happened.
- Funtime Freddy controls Ennard after Baby/Elizabeth leaves.
- Ennard is in every location, he lives in the ceiling and harrassed Michael
- Michael regrets killing Chris.
- Henry owns the pizzerias and William just works for him. Charlie is his daughter as a bonus (this part is canon in the books, but I also hate the books lmao)
- As a ghost/spirit, Chris can still see the Nightmares. Fredbear is both Nightmare AND Nightmare Fredbear and acts as a protector for Chris. Nightmarrionette (despite being "not canon" in a sense) is also one of these protectors and is super sweet to Chris. He gives him advice
- Chris inhabits Golden Freddy/Fredbear.
- All animatronics can see the ghost children
- I have no HC names for the other children, my bad
- Jeremy was bit by Mangle on accident.
- Mangle uses Funtime Foxy's old blueprints mixed with Funtime Freddy. That other head? That's supposed to be a little Freddy puppet.
- Every Fox harrasses every Bear. I do not care, it is a rule.
- The Freddles are very kind, and Nightmare Freddy has named all 5. (yes there are 5, going off of UCN)
- Puppet also exists in every location after FNAF 2.
- Shadow Bon & Shadow Freddy simply exist as "shadows" of Fredbear and Spring Bon.
- Fredbear was actually really mean and favored Henry. Spring Bon was very sweet and favored William.
- uhh i cant think of anymore rn but I'll add if I remember!
Also ship time bc I have hyperfixated on this for ages
Freddy x Foxy (any rendition EXCEPT for Toy Freddy/Mangle)
Bonnie x Chica (EXCEPT Toys & Funtime)
Lolbit x Funtime Chica (lesbians :))
Toy Freddy x Toy Bonnie
William x Henry (because I have a problem and imagine them being secretly gay. Plus like Henry finding out what William has done and just LOSES IT because wtf is wrong with you, you bastard. I live for ANGST and ANGST ONLY)
Fredbear/Golden Freddy x Puppet (don't ask. Also, in this case, Chris WOULD have a childish crush on Charlie. Does Charlie return it? Probably not, but she knows Chris is crushing.)
(Cant think of more but I THINK that's it.)
I never read the novels bc they didn't interest me, but I don't consider any part of them canon (solely bc Scott said so). Also, Scott saying that 1-3 are the ONLY canon games makes me upset, but I'm alright with his decision. I'm VERY excited for the new game, though!! I can't wait aha,, I haven't played the VR game, but I DO have the mobile AR game and it scares me sometimes.
ALSO the most recent book has Springtrap x MatPat mpreg, please enjoy this fact. (I'm literally not joking either, the one character literally represents MatPat and it mentions Mpreg, like I SWEAR I've read Animatronic/Human impregnation in a Fanfic on Wattpad before and the FACT it is in a book makes me scream in fear.)
