#edwill

edwin x william is actually so funny to me bc their dynamic reminds me of how people in 2020 saw willry's dynamic

HAPPY YAOI DAY EVERYONE!!!!!!!! Here is a rushed Edwill doodle!💖

I don't know why he has to be responsible for every unfortunate happening, he may be one of the villains, but I don't think he started out that sinister, it would have had to develop over time

And I like to see Edwin as moreso a victim of circumstance

Thinking about his relationship with William, it likely didn't start out with much animosity either

The way I like to see it, William used to be a little nicer, though certainly had his habits and unfortunate interest in profit driving his ambition

He and Edwin were on good terms, and he likely would have been happy at the time with his small family, maybe even being supportive of it when Edwin founded his own

However, it's probably greed that begins to corrupt Will from the beginning, along with his already compromised morality that he shared with Henry

But I don't think he'd have any sort of motive to do what he eventually does to Edwin at that point, no

It was probably Fiona's death that happened, being a very unfortunate accident, and then Edwin falls into his despair and yet tries to hide it as best as he can

Both William and Henry reach out in their own ways, though William doesn't do that right off, not until he's left by Elise/Mrs. Afton if that happens in a similar time frame

And then maybe a or a few months after that, when he and Edwin might have had a little more fondness for each other, it gets cut off by the springlock incident occuring

This is where I think his outlook takes a major shift

Somehow, he'd come to learn that the suit that nearly killed him was the version of it Edwin had designed, the one that he didn't ask for, since he still wanted to believe his and Henry's version was better, and I bet it gets proved right then to him that it was, though in actuality, of both mechanisms were faulty, it was probably just the concept itself

But anyway, that's when all bets would be off

It was already enough that he couldn't prevent the incident, being caught in the crossfire of something partially his making, something that should have been safe to use

But now it was from someone he thought he could trust? Who went behind his back and made something that dangerous? (I don't think he'd see this rationally, he wouldn't realize that Edwin tried to help, he'd be too caught up in his pain and the sense of betrayal he felt)

William would develop a sudden seething hatred for Edwin, but he wouldn't exercise it instantly, no, I think he'd get close to that point, perhaps have at least one confrontation with him, but for the most part, he'd try to think about how he wanted to deal with the problem that was now someone he knew, seeing him in a worse and worse regard each day

And I think Henry would look down on him a little too, acknowledging that he could have lost William to Edwin's hand indirectly

So then William gets his ideas, nudges Henry a little through his words and charm, and then they start getting a bit more possessive over everything Edwin made

William gets much more calculated from these events, and maybe he's responsible for David, but I'm not sure he does that intentionally

Although it would make sense if he did that to add to pushing Edwin over the edge

Of course, that works in the end, a little too well, and Will and Henry probably think the guy did something to himself, likely never knowing the truth of Edwin's disappearance

Now this part obviously wouldn't be canon, but for anyone wondering how the EdWill would work under these circumstances, check under the cut

Though it's not just that, it's also some more brainstorming for how this would all work

1 - Willwin/Edwill… I had to censor the bitches because I KNEW my mom would find it and flip… my evil yaoi hating mother…

2 - The legendary Fiona Murray blep… very few get to see it…

3 - David trying to copy his mama. Fan fact! I didn’t actually have a brown colored pencil, so I just used orange and then covered it with my normal pencil

4 - A few critters from last week. Wolf Boone, a sphinx cat, and a persian! As you can see from it’s ears, I hadn’t quite figured out the brown trick

5 - Chassis!Wheatley… also from last week…

thinking about edwin murray again it's so bad I love him guhhhhhh!!!
