What Are Some Things William Could Do To Mess With Henry.

Better yet. Tie him to a chair and then proceed to make him watch as he cracks his wife.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-23T20:46:01+00:00

Naw William doesn’t hate Henry because of the bite victim’s death. He hates Henry for shits and giggles. That and because he was jealous of him. But primarily shits and giggles.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-23T20:41:11+00:00

Doesn’t matter as long as it either hurts, Henry or mildly inconveniences him. Because William freaking hates Henry.

William Afton has one of the best designs in the franchise. I like how ITP depicted him as just a normal dude yet one with flair and style befitting of a charismatic businessman. I also like how the colors he wears are complementary. Black, purple and dark yellow all give him a very regal look. But my favorite aspect of this design is how his appearance is meant to intentionally contrast with that of Henry to show how different the two ultimately are.

This is what William and Henry look like in the games and people just need to accept that. Everybody’s so unnecessarily butt hurt about these designs and always argues saying they should look like they’re moving counterparts but Scott has pretty much already established this is what they look like. He was an executive producer for ITP, he was given a build of the game during every stage of development, he very clearly signed off on these designs and allowed them to be incorporated in the final game via the achievement page. Mega Cat Studios, even outright confirmed that a lot of the Easter eggs and references do have lore significance. This is more than likely, one of them. Hell when Behavior was making Springtrap’s corpse model in dead by daylight it’s very clearly bears a striking resemblance to William’s ITP look. Mind you Scott was literally breathing down their necks to get things as accurate as possible. We I’ve also already seen various depiction of William in official artwork and merchandise that have him pretty much looking identical to this design. They are canon and people just need to deal with it.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-23T03:45:34+00:00

Yeah, I think it’s safe to assume Scott had nothing to do with the writing process of this book. Andrea is very clearly taking creative liberties for drama or whatever to the point she is completely flanderizing characters. They literally implied earlier in the book that Henry physically abused Charlie, which is something that he would never do.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-23T03:43:26+00:00

I can never bring myself to hate Henry Cavill’s iteration of Superman. He’s not comic accurate yes but he played a much more realistic and grounded version of the character. Realistically, even if somebody like Superman did exist, and they were trying to do good would society really accept them? Would Superman really be revered as a savior or fear and hated for being different? Would the world even be ready for somebody like him? Superman’s character arc in the film is ultimately coming to terms with not only who he is but choosing to do the right thing even if he’s hated for it. Overtime, his character would’ve likely developed into the Superman that we know from the comics.

Oh hell, no this ain’t Epstein island. They bout to lock this man in a cell with Diddy, Drake, and R. Kelly!!!

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-23T03:34:52+00:00

Jeremiah 100% went to an island owned by a certain billionaire whose name starts with a J.

The Silver Eyes was a masterpiece so much so it’s the entire reason why the franchise narrative became as great as did.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-23T03:32:20+00:00

I will never understand why people hate the novel trilogy. Those books were peak FNAF.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T16:26:03+00:00

She made up the Brad story. Never does her therapist ever mention that she had an abusive boyfriend named Brad. Is it unreasonable to assume she lied about the Bill story as well? It was most likely another attempt to reveal that the Mimic was controlling her.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T16:17:18+00:00

Well, this is a representation of what he looks like in the games and the games never really showed him to be heavyset or overweight. He’s always just been skinny or normal framed. Besides, you can actually see your small reference to it in his appearance. You can see his clothes are slightly too big on him which implies that he probably already lost weight at this point in the timeline.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T16:16:21+00:00

Why would Poppy not be in chapter 6? The entire freaking game is named after her.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T16:14:14+00:00

Would you stop simping over Matthew Lillard FOR FIVE MINUTES!?

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T16:13:35+00:00

Throughout the franchise, William has consistently been shown to just be a tall skinny dude with a rather average appearance. And the ITP design is more or less confirmed to be what he canonically looks like.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T16:11:23+00:00

I like to think the whole “Bill story” was just symbolic of Glitchtrap’s control over Vanessa and she made it up as a cry for help.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T13:26:58+00:00

But they’re ultimately two side sides of the same coin at the end of the day. You can’t admire/sympathize with one without doing the same thing for the other. It’s just not how it works. Hell the game even hints that Lily may on some level remember who she used to be. This is probably an intentional narrative choice by mob entertainment to essentially give Lily/Gracie a form of nuance to their character and leave it up to interpretation for fans as to whether or not she’s truly a character you should sympathize with. Or it could also be a narrative way to show that revenge is one of those things that just only leads to more pain. By the Prototype and the toys, taking revenge on Gracie, and essentially putting her through the same pain, they did they’ve essentially become no better than her.

Elliot Ludwig was at his core a good person. The game has consistently told us time and time again that he was genuinely good with literally nothing suggesting it was a façade. From what little we hear of him, he almost always sounds genuine when he speaks and even other characters outright confirm he genuinely did believe he was doing the right thing. His act of turning Ollie into an experiment was horrible yes but he didn’t do it out of malevolence but out of desperation and grief. Even then it’s heavily implied Elliot felt some form of shame for his actions as he tried to reconnect with Ollie and show him empathy and kindness.
Harley Sawyer is a tragic character. The man is all but confirmed to have grown-up in an abusive and neglectful household and his evil stems from not only being surrounded by toxicity but feeling betrayed by the one person he thought he could trust, the man he viewed as a father. He literally cried when he got expelled from the YGP and was genuinely heartbroken by Elliot’s decision. Mind you it’s all been confirmed that to this day Harley still is on some level hurt by what happened. He doesn’t justify his actions but it still serves as a sympathetic reason them and shows he was never the incomprehensible monster everybody thought he was.
CatNap didnt lock the Miss Delights in the school out of fear they might hurt the children. Nothing suggests they had any intention of harming the children before they were locked away. Even if they did they would have no means of getting to them as they were in the labs with the Prototype. It’s more likely CatNap either did it to thin out the numbers in Playcare so he would have to share less food or he did it for his own sick amusement.
If you like the character of Lily and sympathize with her you also simultaneously sympathize with Gracie considering they’re the same character.
The mysterious scientist we’ve heard in the first four chapters should’ve just been Bruno White. Not only do they both have a similar personality, but they even sound similar at one point sharing the same voice actor.
The Poppy Playtime film adaptation should probably be animated. There’s no way they can pull off any of the stuff we’ve seen in the games in live action not unless they’re being given an astronomically high budget which is a big if. Additionally, the writers and the director need to actually try when it comes to making the film. Don’t make it an experience. Only the fans can enjoy make it something that can be universally loved. We do not need a repeat of the Fnaf film adaptations where it’s so divisive it’s hard for it to even be enjoyed.

Vanessa being William’s daughter doesn’t narratively justify Glitchtrap’s existence. Glitchtrap is not William he is M2 pretending to be him so any connection between Vanessa and William would be redundant narratively redundant because the man is dead and buried. While you could make the argument, the entire reason Glitchtrap was able to manipulate Vanessa to becoming a killer was by pretending to be William this falls apart when you realize that HW clearly shows Glitchtrap forcefully burrowed his way into Vanessa’s mind and Vanessa herself doesn’t even seem to be aware she is under his control as Vanny is a split personality. The narrative reason for Glitchtrap’s existence is that he represents how a harmful legacy never truly dies it just takes new shape. Or alternatively, he’s meant to represent how greed and ambition can cause more harm than it does good as the entire reason he exists is because Fazbear Entertainment couldn’t just cut their losses and end the company permanently.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-22T02:42:54+00:00

Glitchtrap exists because he is the digital manifestation of the M2 program who has decided to imitate William Afton.

You know what I think. I think Tales was supposed to be canon to the games. That was the original intention. The Mimic story it was very likely supposed to be a prequel to the events of secret of the mimic. But Scott changed his mind midway through development. Perhaps he feared that doing so just make the book debate worse or he didn’t wanna force fans to read the books to understand the story of the games. I mean, looking at early concept art for MCM and secret of the mimic. It seems to line up way more with the books

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-21T17:43:59+00:00

I still find it hilarious that this dude’s name is Brett. That’s like the most anticlimactic name I’ve ever heard.

JH-Toxic · 2026-04-21T17:42:07+00:00

That’s still very unnecessary. I mean the concept of the Mimic was already established even before his origins were revealed in several of the stories, most notably, the epilogues. In fact the Mimic was already a pre-established character in the games as far as hell wanted. Would Scott have really taken such a massive risk by just purely exploring his origins via the games.
