HEAVY MACHINERY

Everytime I hear that someone has an "Outdoor" cat our relationship stats drops like in the sims. Every single time I hear the "They're animals it's natural" excuse from full grown adults it makes me want to shake their head to see if there's anything rattling about in there. I should kick you outside and let you duke it out with the coyotes and bears. Cmon it's only natural. You're an animal it's where you're SUPPOSED to be. You'd be miserable inside, it's not natural for you. Who cares what you do to all the plants and animals. Who cares if you end up coyote food.

It will never cease to be funny to me every single time someone online mistakes Michael for William or vice versa. All I can think about is how fucking much Mike would hate it. It's so funny to me. Or people complaining in art about how "Mike looks like William". I'm afraid that's the point dear. My man's never escaping it. As tragic as it is it's such a funny plot point. There's so much potential with it

Not enough people draw Mike with Springbonnie symbolism(?) and I think that's a tragedy. It's mostly just reserved to William, but MAN it hurts a lot more to consider maybe Michael empathizing to a painful point with the gutless corpse of a yellow rabbit sitting in the backroom. He fucking hates that he sees himself in what should be a face of death. While for William Springbonnie might represent "Freedom" and a method for him to be as cruel as he wants with no repercussions to his "Loving Father and Business Man" facade. What if it was the complete opposite for Mike. What if it was staring at a fate worse than death for him. What if it was a representation of every part of him he doesn't want to think about. Of what William wants him to be and what he's sculpted him to be. That every facet of himself could never be his own. I don't think Mike would ever in 100 years actually like that yellow rabbit, it's more so it's a reflection of every traumatic bad thing regarding him and his father's relationship. Remembering that rabbit post scoop and understanding that was all he was to William. That was his purpose, fulfilled to a narratively parallel death. And getting scared straight. The turning point for his redemption was the memory of a rabbit whose face got permanently melded with a horrific man, and the idea of replacing the bunny's face with his own. Also complicates their relationship because I do NOT buy the idea that Mike was Williams least favorite in the slightest, it's a popular theory but Mikes quite literally the only one who made it to adulthood, and is pretty well known for having been his father's right-hand man. I don't believe William viewed his kids as real people, more so just like every other creation of his. Just tools and shiny achievements to put on display and put to work. But Mike being akin to Springbonnie in the fact that he mildly empathizes with Mike, that he sees himself in Mike both literally and figuratively, and that he was the most useful to him all gave Mike this weird distorted form of conditional love that the other kids maybe didn't get as much of. Mike was the most useful, so William paid the most attention to him. It would be a bigger loss to lose Mike than Elizabeth or CC in his head. It would still suck to lose any of his "tools", but it would be far worse to lose his most valuable possession. Kinda like Vanessa from the movies. Plus it's heartbreaking to imagine Mike having to fill in for Elizabeth's paternal figure after CC's death, knowing it wouldn't be enough to fill the void of William for her, and it would never erase what he did to CC. Idk I just think it's more satisfying than him being portrayed as Foxy, considering the point of the Foxy mask was to be one of fear and intimidation, a face that came with abuse. Not a representation Mike would want to associate with after CC's death. Plus it lines up with CC being associated with Golden Freddy. What if Mike was associated with the dilapidated version of Springbonnie? Sitting in the safe room, boneless, until it's useful to someone again. And that person will always just be William. It's really mean, and trust that I wholeheartedly believe in that funny bear fellow in FFPS being his brand new fursona that represents him finding his autonomy and being the man he wants to be. Paired with him finally making a decent Freddy's establishment. Something about breaking generational cycles. But does anyone get what i'm saying. is the propaganda working.
