Na opinião de vocês por que o William usou o fredbear de pelúcia para se comunicar com o C,C

Bom está mais do que claro com várias evidências que nós temos independente da interpretação do tipo 99% da comunidade concorda que o fredbear de pelúcia e o William Por quê ele está vigiando seu filho usando a plúcia dele me digam as suas interpretações

Just got this notification as soon as I was thinking about William's personality for my AU lol

I mean this does sound exactly like William in Canon lore

Is TOYSNHK even possible to solve right now.

We know that Scott likes to address unsolved mysteries in the series by either elaborating on them in the future or changing their original purposes to line up with current games and books. With TOYSNHK, there are just to many theories with a ton of them having good evidence so do you think the answer to who TOYSNHK is was left vague on purpose as a character to be elaborated on later or do you think that we will only truly know who the spirit is in future games or books.

The Story of Ralph

Important Note: This is the full story of Ralph and his journey from what we know of his childhood all the way till his death the week before FNAF 1, this post contains heavy spoilers for TWB so if you have not read it and don't want to be spoiled turn away now.

Ralph's Life Before Fazbear

Ralph was likely born sometime in 1940s and 1950s and at the very latest the early 1960s (given he started working at Freddy's in the mid-80s and his daughter was born around that time) to an abusive father:

\"Which, now that you think of it, might have been his plan all along\"

Ralph in his youth was an overachiever and constantly strived to do his absolute best no matter what.

\"You were, and still are, what they call an overachiever\"

Ralph's father however being a perfectionist never saw his son as good enough for him.

\"You vowed you would never treat your own child that way\"

When in elementary school Ralph was bullied by his classmates which inspired Ralph's future role and dream job being a Security Guard.

\"Now that you think about it, maybe that's one of the reasons you became a security guard, so you could help those who can't help themselves\"

After Ralph graduated he went to a community college where he then majored in Psychology specializing in children's psychology before eventually dropping out.

\"You started out as a psychology major at the community college, specializing in children's psychology before you dropped out\"

Ralph's Early Days at Fazbear

Sometime after Ralph dropped out college he came across Freddy Fazbears Pizza and he quickly fell in love with the characters and the brand as a whole especially Foxy the Pirate who became his favorite Fazbear character.

\"He was always your favorite of the Fazbear mascots\"

Eventually when a Day-Guard position opened up at Freddy's he took the job offer starting a saga that would last until the end of his life.

\"Working security at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza is your dream job-at least that's what you told them in the interview\"

Ralph over the years he worked at Fazbear's he became intensely loyal to the company and the brand to the point where it became a part of who he was as a person.

\"You've put too much time in, put so much of yourself into your job that you're practically a part of it yourself\"

During his time at the original Freddy's he was offered to record employee training tapes which he was more then happy to record given his passion for the job and his desire to help and guide his fellow employees.

\"It helps you feel a connection to the other guards\"

\"Some people around here know you as \"The Phone Guy\" because of your voice messages that are forwarded to new hires\"

Some of the tapes Ralph recorded at the original Freddy's including tutorials on how to operate Springlock suits as well as updates on what's currently happening at Freddy's.

For example the first Springlock Operation tape recorded by Ralph.

>Uh, hello? Hello hello? Uh welcome to your new career as a performer slash entertainer for Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. Uh, these tapes will provide you with much needed information on how to handle, slash climb into, slash climb out of, mascot costumes. Right now we have two specially designed suits that double as both animatronic and suit. So please pay close attention while learning how to operate these suits, as accidents, slash injury, slash death, slash irreparable and grotesque maiming, can occur.

>First, we will discuss how to operate the mascots when they are in animatronic form. For ease of operation the animatronics, are set to turn and walk towards sound cues. This is an easy and hands-free approach, to making sure the animatronics stay where the children are, for maximum entertainment slash crowd-pleasing value. To change the animatronics to suit mode, insert and turn firmly the hand crank provided by the manufacturer.

>Turning the crank will recoil and compress the animatronic parts around the sides of the suit, providing room to climb inside. Please make sure the springlocks are fastened tight, to ensure the animatronic devices remain fixed. We will cover this in more detail in tomorrow’s session. Remember to smile. You are the face of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza.

Sometime during his employment at the original Freddy's his daughter was born preventing him from taking the nightshift when he otherwise would have.

\"You sounded so young. So naive. You wish you could talk to that guy and give him some tips instead of the reverse\"

Ralph deeply loves and cares about his daughter wanting nothing but the absolute best for her.

Ralph During FNAF 2

After the Missing Children Incident Freddy Fazbear's Pizza closed its doors and re-opened in 1987 Ralph stayed as an employee trainer providing tips and advice to help guide nightguards through their nights. He trained Jeremy Fitzgerald during his week at location on how to keep the animatronics out of his office and kept him updated as the events of the week progressed.

Ralph's first phone call to Jeremy Fitzgerald

Unbeknownst to Ralph William Afton had murdered 5 (possibly 6) people the week before his calls with their deaths being swept under the rug by Fazbear with Ralph being kept in the dark being told that the rumors surrounding the incident were rumor and speculation until Ralph eventually finds out what actually happened on Night 6.

The Night 3 Phone Call where Ralph mentions the rumors and speculation around whats going on:

>"Uh, hello hello! See, I told you you wouldn’t have any problems! Did, uh, Foxy ever appear in the hallway? Probably not, I was just curious. Like I said, he was always my favorite.

>They tried to remake Foxy, ya know? Uh, they thought the first one was too scary, so they redesigned him to be more kid-friendly and put him in Kid’s Cove. To keep the toddlers entertained, you know. But kids these days just can’t keep their hands to themselves. The staff literally has to put Foxy back together after every shift. So eventually they stopped trying and left him as some “take apart and put back together” attraction. Now he’s just a mess of parts. I think the employees refer to him as just “The Mangle.”

>Uh… oh hey! Before I go, uh, I wanted to ease your mind about any rumours you might have heard lately. You know how these local stories come and go and seldom mean anything. I can personally assure you, that whatever is going on out there, however tragic it may be, has nothing to do with our establishment. It’s just all rumour and speculation*, People trying to make a buck, you know. Uh, our guard during the day has reported nothing unusual, and he’s on watch from opening ’til close.

>Okay, well anyway, hang in there and I’ll talk with you tomorrow."

The Night 4 Phone Call where Ralph mentions an investigation is underway:

>"Hello hello! Uh, hey there, night four! I told you you’d get the hang of it!

>Ok, so uh, just to update you, uh, there’s been somewhat of an investigation going on. Uh, we may end up having to close for a few days, I don’t know. Uh, I want to emphasize though that it’s really just a precaution. Uh, Fazbear Entertainment denies any wrongdoing. These things happen sometimes. Um, it’ll all get sorted out in a few days. Just keep an eye on things and I’ll keep you posted.

>Uh, just as a side note though, try to avoid eye contact with any of the animatronics tonight if you can. Someone may have tampered with their facial recognition systems, we’re not sure. But the characters have been acting very unusual, almost aggressive towards the staff. They interact with the kids just fine, but when they encounter an adult, they just…stare.

>Uh, anyways, hang tight, it’ll all pass. Good night!"

The Night 6 Phone Call where Ralph mentions what really happened finding out seemingly recently:

>"Uh, hello hello! Uh, what on earth are you doing there? Uh didn’t you get the memo? Uh, the place is closed down, a-at least for a while. Someone used one of the suits. We had a spare in the back, a yellow one. Someone used it…now none of them are acting right.

>Listen j-just finish your shift, it’s safer than trying to leave in the middle of the night. Uh, we have one more event scheduled for tomorrow, a birthday. You’ll be on day shift. Wear your uniform, stay close to the animatronics and make sure they don’t hurt anyone okay? Uh for now just make it through the night. Uh, when the place eventually opens again I’ll probably take the night shift myself.

>Okay, good night, and good luck."

Despite what happened Ralph stayed intensely loyal to Fazbear given his love for the brand and the characters rejoining Freddy's as a security guard once again when the place re-opened years later.

Ralph's During TWB/FNAF 1

During his time at the FNAF 1 location Ralph stayed on as a day-guard and also interviewed new hires such as Bronwen Light.

Ralph describing the interview with Bronwen Light

Ralph after his many years of service to Freddy's decides to leave Freddy's for good and to find a job else where, one of the job opportunities he's looking forward to potentially getting his hands on is a position as a Security Guard at his daughter's school.

https://preview.redd.it/ksarca6tiftg1.png?width=616&format=png&auto=webp&s=4bee2b2d6874eae117a0cd8eafaae3876459e61a

Right before his last week at Freddy's there is a sudden staff vacancy and as a result Ralph was moved over to the nightshift to which Ralph agreed to. Ralph had heard from other nightguards that the animatronics themselves could be dangerous such as from William when he worked his shift in 1987 but Ralph never took it too seriously thinking he was prepared for whatever would come his way on the nightshift.

The intro to The Week Before

On his first night Ralph discovers broken light bulbs in the bathroom and ventures out from his office to repair them. While doing so Ralph has a close and near death encounter with Foxy but he manages to survive.

When Ralph arrived back to the office he mentions how he feels about not believing previous nightguards about their experiences with the animatronics on the nightshift.

>"Previous night watchmen have reported the animatronics behaving strangely, but like everyone else, you dismissed their wild stories. Sometimes people fall asleep staring at the camera feeds and they imagine things, bolstered by the old rumors and stories. The mind can be a funny thing, making it hard to distinguish hallucinations from reality. Now you feel bad for not believing them*"*

After he concludes his first nightshift at Freddy's he records a message for the next guard who will replace him next week.

Ralph recording the Night 1 phone call

On his second nightshift Ralph finds out that Bonnie's head fell off and to prevent anyone from noticing what happened when the restaurant opens in the morning Ralph sets-off to re-attach Bonnie's head:

>You punch the button for the Show Stage. Freddy and Chica are both there as they should be, but Bonnie has already left.
No, wait! Bonnie is still there—most of him, anyway. His body is on the stage, but his head is gone. Who would steal the head of an animatronic bunny?
Punk kids, you think.
Daredevil teens from the high school and community college sometimes try to break into the restaurant. If they succeeded, they would want to bring back a souvenir of their “bravery.” You laugh, imagining someone shouting, “Bring me the head of Bonnie the Rabbit!

After cracking a joke which he often does in stressful situations Ralph proceeds with his mission and successfully re-attaches the head of Bonnie. Afterward Ralph records a phone call for the next guard that will succeed him.

Ralph recording the Night 2 phone call

On Night 3 Ralph discovers and cleans up a bloody mess in Party Room 2 left by an intruder who had just broken into Freddy's.

>"You flip on the light—it’s a horror show. The spill inside looks like blood.
A lot of blood. It smells like blood, too: a bitter, metallic scent you can almost taste, like copper. You gag and then throw up your dinner"

After cleaning up the mess and nearly dying along the way Ralph makes it back to the office where he records a third phone call for his successor.

Ralph recording the Night 3 phone call

On his fourth Night Ralph enters Freddy's to find out a full on show is going on with the animatronics singing and dancing. Ralph goes on a mission to get to the breaker-room to shut down the show eventually getting there and shutting down the restaurants power.

>"Like the good night watchman you are, you check the security cameras before you do anything else, and what you see has you both baffled and anxious: the animatronics are more active than usual, especially for this hour.
They seem to be having a party in the Dining Area. Freddy is up on the stage singing his clockwork heart out while Bonnie and Chica are showing off their moves on the dance floor below.
Bonnie is swinging his bass guitar around, and Chica is doing the Chicken Dance up and down the aisles, knocking chairs over.
Even Foxy is joining in, so you know this is big trouble. He’s dancing on the tables, crushing party hats and shredding tablecloths with his shiny metal feet."

After his shift he does not record a message for the next employee but instead waits for the remaining few minutes for his shift to be over before heading home.

On Ralph's fifth and final night the animatronics become the most aggressive they have ever been all week. The animatronics left the show stage nearly as soon as the night began.

>"You switch on the monitor and check out the Show Stage camera. Your seat isn’t even warm yet before you jump up from it in surprise*the stage is empty! It’s just after midnight—the animatronics are way ahead of schedule.
They could be restless after being alone all day.
Hopefully, they aren’t upset about their party last night being interrupted.
They might be out seeking revenge."

The animatronics strike at Ralph's office relentlessly, desperately attempting to get in.

>"Foxy bursts into the office* and wastes no time rushing at you.
Even though you knew he was coming, his sudden, aggressive appearance startles you, and you reflexively fire your gun at his chest.
Water squirts from the pistol into a tear in Foxy’s mascot suit that exposes the exoskeleton within. Shockingly, the water sizzles, and sparks shoot out of the chest cavity. Foxy jerks and stutters to a stop, his hook and exposed metal hand just inches from your neck.
The acrid smell of cooked electronics reaches your nostrils.
The light in Foxy’s eyes dies, and for a moment regret overwhelms you.
You wish it hadn’t come to this. He’s down for the count, for now. But there’s no time for a eulogy—you brush past him and hurry to the back of the Security Office.
You punch the button to close the ventilation cover, and a metal grate kerthunks into place.
Not a moment too soon—something is moving around inside the ventilation shaft.
But now you hear strains of classical music. You sigh.
*Freddy Fazbear is on his way
."

Ralph surrounded and now knowing Freddy is on his way pulls out his mobile phone and with few options remaining decides to record one last message for his replacement.

\"Hey, wow, day four ... I knew you could do it\"

\"Something smells bad. It might be you. It's me\"

And that is the story of Ralph, from his childhood till his canonical death at the ends of the Missing Children.

One thing i do want to note here is that in the canonical ending of TWB Ralph says as you can see above and below:

>"Something smells bad. It might be you. It's me. Why can't you move your head, your hands?"

What i think might be happening here is that Ralph is unaware that he is currently dead just like the MCI which is why he suddenly says "It's me" as he is confused and doesn't know whats happening.

Other then that i hope you enjoyed reading this, this was more of out of passion then to solve the lore as i personally really love Ralph's character and his little side story and wanted to put it all in one place.

Who’s the blue mask in happiest day?

The common consensus is that The background masks in Happiest day are supposed to be the mediocre melodies.

(this could technically Be wrong but most stuff has been pointing to this)

So who do you think the blue mask is.

Is the chick form the crew at the start of the new movie dead?

I was hoping she might come back in the next movie or smth because Abby got possessed but she survived so I thought that blonde girl had a chance to come back. If she does come back she could write a story about her possession and post it online Mike sees it DM’s her they talk she joins the team and sacrifices herself at the end to save the rest.

Under ucn purgatory how long do you think William would be in ucn?

And don't comment something like "I don't believe in it/ but it's not possible" The point of this post isn't to debate, it's something like, what would you think IF you believed/if it was true.

Fnaf Story Analysis: Fetch - Theming and Explanations

Introduction:

This will be an analysis of the Fazbear Frights story Fetch, focusing on explaining the events of the story and the themes. I hope you enjoy reading this and it helps you understand the story and characters just a little better. 

Preface:

For this series, I will be going over every Fazbear Frights story and potentially even more, like Tales From The Pizzaplex, the Novels, the Interactive Novels, and individual games, and take a deep dive into them. For each example, I will be doing multiple analyses on each for a different purpose. The first will be an analysis of the story itself, explaining the events within it and their themes. The second will be focused on the parallels of the story and what they can answer and give insight into for other parts of Fnaf; obviously, many have a poor impression of parallels and even deny their existence, but keep in mind for something like the Novels, the entire story present in them is built around Charlotte and Elizabeth, and Henry and William being parallels of one another. Parallels come with telling a story, and every story has them, and they’ll be analyzed in each case to see what insights they can offer.

Previous Analysis:

Analysis of Eleanor and Andrew’s characters.
Into The Pit - Theming and Explanations
To Be Beautiful - Theming and Explanations
Count The Ways - Theming and Explanations

Since said analysis is too big for a single post, I have to link the document here holding all of it:

Gente essas 2 teorias podem coexistir

A primeira imagem representa a teoria que diz que o golden Freddy deixou as pegadas de 3 dedos no Midnight Motorist eu acredito nessa teoria mas o problema é que eu estou começando a considerar um pouco LoopVictim mas o problema da equipe pelo que eu vi o CC fica preso em um loop revivendo a semana da sua morte logo após a mordida de 83 então meio que seria impossível ele ir até o Michael no Midnight Motorist então existe alguma forma 2 teorias coexistirem

MarkiplierBurrows: M2 took over Mr Burrows identity. Special delivery guy is M2's emanation of burrows

from what I've read from this theories page delivery guy and burrows share some features.

some details don't fit with burrows. but that could M2 emanate burrows after he killed the real one in taking over Fazbear entertainment.
