Celebrating Halloween w/ Michael Afton Headcanons

˚ · • . ° .˚ · • . ° . Media: FNAF

Summary: Headcanons about celebrating the spooky season with Michael Afton

Description: Gender neutral, fluff, domestic, established relationship? a little angst? Cringe?

Other: Yes, I know it's past Halloween. :/ This was originally written for game! Michael, as I haven't watched the movie. I don't know if movie! Michael would match this, but imagine how you please.

˚ · • . ° .˚ · • . ° .

Since Michael has the daytime off (although he sleeps most of the day, reasonably so from his late night shifts), he likes to spend his time with you!

Like watching scary movies!

Yeah..Michael is not so into scary movies. He will watch anything you pick that isn't too gory. He prefers to watch dramas or pg/pg-13 Halloween movies/tv shows.

So something simple like the Addams Family, Scooby-Doo, or something romantic like Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, he would enjoy. "Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you? We got some work to do now!" You both would idiotically sing along, almost choking on popcorn.

Horror movies are just a bit too real when he is trying to enjoy his time away from the horrors already. He would much rather watch something you both can enjoy and cuddle on the couch to watch.

Would he like to carve pumpkins? Yes

Would Michael be good at it? No

While Michael would enjoy going to a local pumpkin patch (or more likely picking one out from the store) and picking out the perfect pumpkin and getting the special tools, he would not be good at carving.

Good carving takes practice. It's fair to say he didn't have the practice when he could carve. Meaning Michael remembers carving pumpkins with his dad and brother, but couldn't really carve.

As a teenager, Michael spent his Halloween out of the house at parties or 'pranking' other houses, he was out doing anything to stay away from home. When he moved out, he didn't go out of his way to celebrate the holiday. Maybe a bucket of candy outside and a decorative pumpkin but that was the extent.

But you were more than happy to teach Michael how to carve. Or perhaps both of you will learn together!

"Brains!" Michael groaned, imitating a zombie, holding a handful of pumpkin innards to your face. "Eww!" You laughed and slapped his hands away, making the innards splatter on both of your faces.

Post-Scoop Headcanons: (more angst)

Michael would also enjoy classic movies like Frankenstein and Dracula.

He would 1. enjoy Dracula for the vampire drama and 2. like Frankenstein but could only watch it once a year since it's sad (especially for Michael), which you would comfort him.

You would definitely have to physically help Michael carve a pumpkin. As much as he wouldn't like to admit he's weak, he's not afraid to ask for help getting around on his elbow crutches, getting up, eating, or other tasks, and you gladly help him with an exchange of a kiss. Your body hugged around Michael's back as he leaned forward on the counter, your arms slithered around his waist while your hands rested on top of his to help steady the knife on a pumpkin you deemed perfect. The cuts were jagged and uneven, but perfect, perfect in your eyes.

"Mike! What do you mean you've never been rollerskating?!" "I mean I've never been, Y/n." Michael said sarcastically Sure, he knew about skating, he grew up in the 80s. But he had a..difficult childhood. He didn't have a lot of friends after the incident. You paused and pursed your lips, making Michael smirk. "You, me, the rink this Saturday." You said assertively. Michael returned with a stern look, you resorted to doe eyes. "Fine but you're teaching me." He couldn't resist. You reached up and grabbed Micheal by his collar, pulling him down to your height. You pecked his cheek with an exaggerated 'mwah' sound. The brunette's face heated and relaxed into a soft smile. You were so sweet to Michael. How did I get so lucky? Michael thought, but little did he know, you were thinking the same thing. Tranquility rested in the air for a moment before Michael thought back to what he has to face tonight. He hated leaving you, he often fantasized about the thought himself finally being able to put the souls rightfully to rest, and being able to live normally with you. Or even somehow getting a normal job. To drift to sleep and wake up next to you felt like a privilege. It felt like a dream to him. "Get some sleep, my love." Michael said, placing a soft kiss on your forehead before going to Freddy's. ---

Saturday rolled around and Michael drove you two to a nearby skating rink. The skating rink felt like it never left the fad of the 80s. With the patterned carpets and the colorful lights, it reminded Michael of the old familiar arcades. The same feelings where he was supposed to watch his sister and was supposed to be a good brother to his youn- You gave a gentle squeeze on Michael's hand, grounding him from his worries. You gave him a worrisome look and gave a reassuring smile, assuring him that he was there with you, not in the past. Michael gave a squeeze back and gave a weak smile. "Let's get some skates!" You exclaimed, dragging Michael by the hand.

When you finished lacing up your skates, you saw Michael was still struggling to tie his. You giggled a little and grabbed his hands. Michael looked sheepish. You keeled down to fasten the laces tightly. He didn't deserve this treatment, he didn't deserve you. "There you go!" You said, tying a pretty bow. Michael gave a small smile. Your happiness often infected Michael. You leaned your hand to help Mike get up, and he gladly took it. Even with your support and the wall next to him, Michael seemed more worried about you falling than him. And his nervousness certainly didn't help him skate. His legs made jerking movements, and he struggled to glide like you. "It's okay Michael, just relax." And he did just that, he loosened his iron grip on your hand and tried to drift into the music and your voice. He didn't even realize he wasn't even holding onto you until your excitement popped his concentration bubble. "You got it, Mikey!" You cheered. Suddenly, you got bumped into by a little kid, sending you falling over Michael. You gave a slight squeal as Michael attempted to catch you. Michael hit the hard floor, while you landed on something soft. You both groaned from impact. You lifted your head and realized your position. You had fallen on top of Michael! You squeaked from the surprise and your face resembled a tomato. Michael was still regaining composure. You tried to get up before Michael could see the position you were in but ended up straddling him. This position made you even more embarrassed (if that was even possible). "Are you ok, Y/n?" Michael asked groggily. When he heard no reply, he began to panic. "Y/n?" There you were, you straddled his lap with your hands on his chest to stabilize yourself. Michael's face began to heat up. Sure, you were a couple, but you never..ended up being too intimate. Michael was busy with his job and it took a lot out of him. Plus, Michael took forever building up the nerve to even ask you out in the first place. "I'm- I'm sorry Michael..I didn't mean-" Your eyes pricked with tears, you just wanted Michael to have a good time and you felt as if you had ruined it. He grabbed your hands and held them. "Hey, hey. It's okay, isn't that what you told me?" Michael's eyes were soft and his mouth formed into a smile. You let out a breath and returned the smile. "You're right, Mike." Once you were off of Michael, you helped him up. Michael seemed more relaxed after the fall. The both of you skated with your hands intertwined until your feet felt like they could fall off.

"God, I think Freddy's ruined pizza for me." Michael said, looking at some displayed pizza at the snack bar. You laughed at his comment and you ended up splitting a large pretzel. You pared the snack with your f/d (favorite drink) and Michael got a Coke. You both sat down at a booth, watching the other skaters fall and skate by. A boy and his mother approached your table. "C'mon, Jimmy." The mother nudged with a stern expression. "I'm sorry for making you fall, (missus, sir, mx)" The child dipped his head in shame and hid behind his mother's leg. It was the kid that bumped into you! "Don't worry about it. It looks like you skate better than me!" Your attitude and your laughter was contagious and the kid gave a toothy smile. "Now, let's get those skates off bud." The mother walked away with her kid. Michael found it sweet of how good you are with kids. More importantly, he thought Evan and Elizabeth would have loved you. The thought of you having tea parties with Elizabeth and watching TV with Evan or comforting him when he cried, makes Michael's heart swell. "Penny for your thoughts?" He was caught zoning out. "Just thinking about how lucky I got.."

Fooled Around

Notes:

- Michael Afton x reader - Y/n uses she/her pronouns and is mentioned wearing a skirt. - Set in the 90s, so Michael and the reader would be in their 20s. - Fluff and songfic - Michael's fake name is Mike/Michael Schmidt - Tumblr wouldn't let me fix some of the slant and bold text in the lyrics so sorry for the unevenness :( - Sorry for any typos

That's all the notes, enjoy! Warnings: Cursing

The old jukebox made mechanical clicks and whirs shuffling to the next song.

Y/n worked the waitressing and closing shift at Freddy's. An old song scratched the needle, jeez how old was this jukebox?

I must've been through about a million girls I'd love 'em and I'd leave 'em alone I didn't care how much they cried, no sir Their tears left me cold as a stone Michael always came in early before his graveyard shift, that's where he met Y/n. Even though it wasn't on his paycheck, Michael helped Y/n clean up after the diner closed. With the chairs folded on every table, with the checkered floor bare, it left sweeping to do.

Michael thought nothing of the music until he heard singing from across a few tables. Your voice was sweet and smooth like honey. He stopped sweeping and turned his attention towards you.

But then I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love Fooled around and fell in love

There you were, your back faced Michael, your hips swayed to the music and the lyrics flowed through you. You were completely oblivious to Michael's gaze.

It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked I'd get out my book and write down her name But when the grass got a little greener on the other side I'd just tear out that page

"She's so pretty.." Michael thought. God, why did he overthink everything. It was cliché but Michael truly did not want to ruin your friendship. For once in his life, he felt like he didn't fuck something up. With his alias, it felt like a fresh start. Then again, he felt bad for lying to his only true friend. You spun to face Michael. A wave of embarrassment washed over you. A moment passed of awkward staring until you gave a light giggle and shuffled over to him. You forgot about your brooms and grabbed his hands, swinging them with you against his stiff figure. Your smile infected him. You were determined to make Michael dance with you. You wanted to make him happy.

But then I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love, since I met you baby I fooled around and fell in love I fooled around and fell in love Michael spun you out and pulled you back into his arms. Michael thought you looked angelic, the way your skirt of your uniform and your hair floated around you, Michael wanted to stop time and stay in the moment for as long as possible. Your hands gently landed on his sturdy shoulders and his hands fitted around your hips. The both of you swayed, perfectly content.

Free on my own that's the way I used to be But since I met you baby, love's got a hold on me (Fooled around and fell in love) woo, it's got a hold on me now, yeah (Fooled around and fell in love) I can't let go of you, baby (Fooled around and fell in love) I can't stop loving you now(Fooled around and fell in love) hey, 'cause I fooled around

Michael looked down at you, while you looked up at him. You made Michael smile so easily like you didn't even know the power you held on him.

I fooled around (fooled around) I fooled around (fooled around) I fooled around (fooled around)

'Just friends' don't look at each other like that, right? That longing gaze, like they were just out of reach of each other. Michael leaned down and touched his forehead with yours. Michael just now listened to the lyrics. His face began to heat up at the realization of the situation. Before Michael could freak out, your soft words played in his head. "You can kiss me you know.." You whispered over the music. And Michael did just that. His lips connected with yours so naturally, as if they were they were made for each other.

Fooled around, fooled around, yes, I did (Fooled around) I fooled around (Fooled around) oh, I fooled

Your hand glided away from the back of his neck to his cheek, lightly caressing it. The kiss released as the song faded.

I fooled around, I fell in love (Fooled around) hey-hey (Fool around, fool around)

"Y/n," "Yes, Mike?" " I like you..You make me feel like I'll be okay." You stayed silent for a moment. "I like you too Michael." A soft smile returned to your face.

The song had ended and so had their friendship, blossoming into something more.
