So, I've had this idea brewing in my head for a while now and I wanted to share it so bad. It used to be a sort of day dream thing for me but I was like, "You know what? Why? Why keep this cheesy thing to myself?" And that's how I spent the last month grinding out this story.

This is set in a universe with several personal preference tweaks. Namely:

1. William Afton is not a ceo or a top company share holder or a genius inventor. He's just the co-owner of Fredbear's Family Diner with Henry then later the new location Freddy's Pizzeria. He has a love for performance, the whole reason he even pushed so hard for the job in the first place, but work and familial responsibilitys have turned him into a bit of a grouch (understatement of the fucking century).

2. The Secret of The Mimics' events never happened. Fiona divorced Edwin after it was clear he wasn't committed to devoting any time with his family and took what little she earned in the divorce to basically create Sesame Street (she is absolutely this universe's Jim Henson) she has full custody of David and they are living well. Meanwhile Edwin went bankrupt on his own (let's face it, the guy was already pretty incompetent without his wife) and Fazbear swooped in to seize as many assets for themselves to salvage as possible.

3. Fazbear sucks, but they're not blatantly evil. Just, average company bullshit levels of evil.

4. We won't be exploring the missing children incident, but it does happen in this universe, and the bite of '83 is just the bite of '87 because I always thought that twist was stupid. The crying child (Evan for simplicitys sake) does not die, but is disabled after the bite.
