Me: *logs into Tumblr and Twitter; sees FNAF trending* Oh! What is this? Was there a new video???

Tumblr/Twitter: *shows Scott C. for FNAF and what’s been happening*

Me: I...Wha...

——————————————————————

Don’t know how to do that divide thing but anyway-

I read what’s going on with the FNAF stuff and as someone that’s in the LGBTQ community (minority community); I honestly do not know how to feel about it all.

I’ve been in this really lovely fandom when the games were just making their way to the spotlight to even before that note of Scott’s came out. Heck I was really pumped to see what Steel Wool was going to produce (FNAF: Security Breach) and absolutely loved how everything was going.

Though seeing that he did some stuff that’s been so-so (ex: Donating to people that defund LGBTQ spaces and those that wish to hurt Transgender, Non-binary, etc. people in a very “it won’t affect me stance”). It does make my heart clench (already have bills in my state that want to do harm to those people). Plus, as someone that’s been questioning their gender still (even though I identify as Androgynous at the moment) I wish that people would stop fussing about how those people “should/shouldn’t” use restrooms to policing what these people “can/cannot” do. Just let us f-ing live in peace for once for peet’s sake instead of acting like a whinny arse. Understand that there are those much lesser than your cis-heterosexual self that are severely struggling due to the boundaries that your folks have put into place to discriminate and essentially wanting to get rid of them all together.

I do understand that he’s a Republican and Christian, I don’t have anything against that seeing most of my friends are a blend of a lot of the political spectrum to religions (even if we may butt heads every now and then we still get along).

But the harassing to saying “oh yeah let’s send real death threats” is over and above what is “right”. That’s no excuse to send to someone those kinds of stuff.

Yeah I may be cancelled or loose what followers I have, but honestly I think we all need to come together and sort of do what the “Harry Potter” as well as what other fandoms did with their creators and the fan base.

Many of us created content (own stories to games, art to making real-life versions) to ideas of how the lore was for FNAF and the games since there wasn’t a whole lot (examples of people that helped push lore to stories: Dawko, MattPat, Markiplier, 8-Bit Ryan, Scottworld, FusionZGamer, Razzbowski, VaporTheGamer, Rexter, and many more I could list on).

I don’t know really what will be done, if the movie and newest game will cancelled or Scott will depart himself from the FNAF base and let others take the lead instead.

But I will say this.

I will continue to enjoy the games (mostly see play throughs of them anyway-), reblog art from artists (cause all artists need support especially those in minority communities), comment/like stories to lore made by all, and heck I’ll still make all the characters queer in some way (example: Lolbit is non-binary).

That is all I’m going to say at the moment for this stuff. 🧸

folklore First Impressions

1. the 1

I instantly loved the nostalgic feel, created by the warm and gentle production. It had gorgeous lyrics with beautiful imagery and the melody felt easy and natural; I was singing along by the end of my first listen. It was instantly a favourite.

You know the greatest films of all time were never made // You know the greatest loves of all time are over now

2. cardigan

This one felt darker and a little more jaded with slightly more chaotic production. But it still had a warmth to it; it reminded me of a fire on a winter evening. The lyrics were detailed with more beautiful imagery.

I knew I’d curse you for the longest time

Chasing shadows in the grocery line

3. the last great american dynasty

This one has such an expansive, detailed story and I just loved the idea of this truly shameless woman but I didn’t personally connect to the song until it flipped and the story turned personal and then I was grinning like an idiot. The production felt very fitting with the story being told and again, the detail (and wide vocabulary) made for a great song.

Who knows, if I never showed up what could’ve been

There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen

I had a marvellous time ruining everything

I had a marvellous time

Ruining everything

4. exile feat. Bon Iver

This is the collaboration I never knew to hope for. Bon Iver has a gorgeous voice and I just loved the two opposite sides, telling their story both in concert and over each other in a way that only intensified an already incredibly emotive song. It was an instant favourite and had me sobbing on the first listen. The lyrics were absolutely stunning and while I loved pretty much all of them, I really loved the first and final lines of the main chorus. There was just something about it that hit me square in the chest.

I think I’ve seen this film before

And I didn’t like the ending

I’m not your problem anymore

So who am I offending now?

You were my crown

Now I’m in exile seeing you out

I think I’ve seen this film before

5. my tears ricochet

The vocals in this one were particularly gorgeous and the lyrics were gorgeous and rich, kind of reminding me of velvet and stately rooms. The story is a mystery but beautifully detailed and I’m looking forward to listening over and over again until I understand it better.

I didn’t have it in myself to go with grace

‘Cause when I’d fight, you used to tell me I was brave

And if I’m dead to you why are you at the wake?

Cursing my name

Wishing I’d stayed

Look at how my tears ricochet

6. mirrorball

I instantly loved the guitar sound and I just loved the lyrics, how fragile they were but still so full of hope for love. It had some really beautiful lyrics and somehow, the whole song – lyrics, melody, and production – sounded just like a mirror ball.

Hush

I know they said the end is near

But I’m still on my tallest tiptoes

Spinning in my highest heels, love

Shining just for you

7. seven

I found this one a bit hard to follow but it had real character and some beautiful lyrics. I also really loved the relationship between the characters in the song.

Please picture me

In the weeds

Before I learned civility

I used to scream

Ferociously

Any time I wanted

8. august

This one just sounded like a hazy summer day to me and the story was just so clear. The production was full and glorious and again, I loved the relationship between the two characters and the obvious complexity of their relationship, even though we don’t know who they really are or if they’re real at all.

And I can see us twisted in bedsheets

August sipped away

Like a bottle of wine

‘Cause you were never mine

9. this is me trying

I was instantly struck by the production: thick and stunning and emotional. And I loved the reverb on the vocal and how it added to the emotion of the song. It was a favourite straight away, with gorgeous lyrics and imagery, and it was so honest and vulnerable in its simplicity. I just wanted to close my eyes and live in it. I found the rhythm of the bridge a little bit jarring but I’m sure I’ll get used to that with more listening. It seemed more real than some of the others. I’m not sure why but some of them just seemed more real.

I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

I just wanted you to know

That this is me trying

At least I’m trying

10. illicit affairs

It took me a while to get into this one – I found the verses lyrically beautifully but the rhythms tripped me up a little – but I loved the stripped back-ness of it. I loved the chorus lyrics and I adored the bridge: the pain and the fury in it were just so real, so brutally honest and vulnerable.

And you wanna scream

Don’t call me kid

Don’t call me baby

Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me

You showed me colours you know I can’t see with anyone else

Don’t call me kid

Don’t call me baby

Look at this idiotic fool that you made me

You taught me a secret language I can’t speak with anyone one else

And you know damn well

For you I would ruin myself

A million little times

11. invisible string

I thought this one told a really lovely story with both tongue-in-cheek lyrics and beautifully sincere ones. But I didn’t like something about the production of the vocal, something that made it a little uncomfortable to listen to.

A string that pulled me

Out of all the wrong arms right into that dive bar

Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire

Chains around my demons

Wool to brave the seasons

One single thread of gold tied me to you

12. mad woman

Definitely the biggest oh-my-god of the album. I kind of wanted it to be a huge, relentless wall of sound but I think the calm, beautifully honed steel approach is probably more effective, given the subject matter (whether you believe it’s about Scott Borchetta, Scooter Braun, or Kanye West). I loved it and loved her refusal to be shamed for being angry. The lyrics were truly awesome and I loved how she went straight for the jugular, all in in an incredibly gratifying demotion.

Does she smile?

Or does she mouth, “fuck you forever?”

13. epiphany

I found this one hard to listen to because the emotions were so raw but it was beautifully written, a stunning tribute to the people described and their stories. I cried from the first verse until long after the song finished.

With you, I serve

With you, I fall down

Down

Watch you breathe in

Watch you breathing out

Out

14. betty

I thought this big, busy story was told really well but I didn’t really connect with the characters. I just ended up getting distracted wondering who the characters were, who the songs were about. The production also wasn’t really a style I love but the key change did make me smile.

But if I showed up at your party

Would you have me?

Would you want me?

Would tell me to go fuck myself

Or lead me to the garden?

15. peace

This is, I think, one of the most beautiful, vulnerable, honest love songs I’ve ever heard. It reminds me of wedding vows, of all of the promises she’s willing to make but then asking him if they’re enough to outweigh the hard times. She lays everything bare and I think that’s part of what makes the song so special. The production is also simply gorgeous (even though I would’ve loved a big, glittering bridge but I get that that’s not how this genre or style seems to work). It was another real favourite and I was a puddle of tears by the end.

Our coming of age has come and gone

Suddenly this summer it’s clear

I had the courage of my convictions

As long as danger is near

And it’s just around the corner, darlin’

‘Cause it lives in me

No, I could never give you peace

16. hoax

This one feels intricately connected to ‘peace’ somehow: a darker but still painfully honest, vulnerable love song. Having said that, I could be completely wrong. I don’t feel like I fully understand it with just one listen because there are just so many lyrics and metaphors and emotions to unpack but I’m looking forward to listening to it over and over again and sharing theories with other fans until I understand it better. But back to the song, the beautiful lyrics are only accentuated by the simple production. It ends the album on a very complex note, which isn’t something she traditionally does.

You know I left a part of me back in New York

You knew the hero died, so what’s the movie for

You knew it still hurts underneath my scars

From when they pulled me apart

Fnaf Vr: Curse Of Dreadbear Spoiler thingy ahead

What’s up fellow gamer chads. Turns out I’m actually doing this liveblog reaction thingy of the Fnaf vr update. Basically this is going to be a sloppy masterpost of me losing my shit over Fnaf but spooky.

I’m going to be “reacting” to FusionZGamer’s first VR video so let’s go bois. spoilers and images ahead

Carl the Cupcake without a candle is cursed

So first up we have the introduction to the new map office thingy.Love the vibe from this. Reminds me of the old black and white horror movies with the lighting and such.nice little addition are the monitors behind as a small little callback to the original trailer of help wanted during the PlayStation direct and just for spooks in general

Also like the small little old fasion film projecter. It adds to Fnaf whole’s 80/90s era aesthetic that the series seems to be focusing on now if the Fnaf 57 teaser is anything to go by

Love the wanna be pumpkin hill stage from sonic adventure 2. Also like how some of the pumpkin carvings resemble some of the animatronics like Bonnie and especially chica. Great spooky mood and atmosphere right here!

VR helpy is best helpy, ya just can’t change my mind. I already loved the little animations he had for the mini games before but these just top them.

Darkroom crawl time!!!

This one is probably the most spooky minigame out of all of the minigames played in this video. This also supports my totally legit(Not Clickbait) point that Fnaf 4 along with Fnaf 1 are the most scariest games in the entire series. The whole mood and atmosphere in Fnaf 4 is captured quite well here and I think that’s why I find it very spooky.

Game over screen!!

Ok so I don’t know if this is officially called Jack O foxy but I’ll just call him that for now. And if he is indeed a jack o he may be my favourite, cause I think the whole jack o aesthetic fits our favourite edgy fox quite well.Also like the addition of the hook clashing against the metal. Kinda reminds me of what the other spooky Freddy would do in a nightmare on elm street with the claw glove and such.

Dreadbear part of the game over screen!!

I like how they added new death messages on the monitors. They add even more lore questions and the such. At much as some us hate to admit it the sheer amount of confusing lore of Fnaf is what makes Fnaf, well Fnaf.

Also like how some parallels between malhare and Dreadbear are being set up. With them talking or laughing at the player and them appearing around the office hub world thingy.

Danger keep out!!

So I’m not so clear on this one but I wanna say it’s just the Fnaf 1 levels but with jack-o animatronics where you click on the cams to “shock” them. I don’t know but I heard the sister location flash beacon sound effect and the controls said flash the animatronics to scare them off so I assume that’s what happening.

It’s probably my least favourite so far but hey maybe the night 2, 3, and the blacklight mode will change my mind

Last but not least plushkin patch

So it’s plushbaby round 2 but this time spooky. The addition of the pumpkins, and the farm tracker, adds to the spooky autumn feel and I really like that. Also the plushbabies with freddle masks is good, very good indeed.

Ok so that’s all for this video and so far I’m loving what steel Wool and Scott has done. Sure I wasn’t the biggest fan of Fnaf 1 But recoloured but I love the other two minigames and just the whole feel of this update in general.
