as much as I love the idea of this on a lower back u gotta admit that mike āheās an honest-to-god real-life sorcererā wheeler would have it above his heart
My friend @b33anie got me back into drawing my ocs again so hereās an entire doodle page (all of which are refs lol)
The shorter one with stubble is Jacob and the taller one with extremely fluffy hair is Ash
More a lot more information below cut, open at your own risk
Theyāre oc Iāve had for a hot minute, 4-5 years I think. Originally they were dsaf phone guy ocsā¦ but I eventually turned them into mainline fnaf sb ocs (and that i occasionally give an original story/aus). Now they just creatures I do things too (and I put them into tomodatchi life).
Their normal story is cheesey af lmao.
They āmetā in middle school. Jacobās friend group (sport kids) at the time were kinda bullying Ash (with him being a #edgyqueerteenager at the time) and so the two of them would get into arguments and conflicts. Around sophomore year, they stopped being asses to each other and kinda started getting along and became good friends. By early junior year, Ash developed a crush on Jacob but wouldnāt say anything due to the fact Jacob was not aware of his sexuality then, that was until Jacob realized he had a crush on Ash at the end of junior year. Insert a summer of queer questioning and the x fell first, y fell harder trope. Senior year, Jacob asked Ash out, insert couple cuteness and queer romance. They had to separate for a bit cause Ash went out of state for college, where he studied mechanical engineering and Jacob stayed instate for education with history focus. (This is where the majority of fnaf stuff starts, if I want to separate them from fnaf, i typically just change stuff after this point) While they were starting college, the pizza plex was built in their hometown so when Jacob was nearing the middle to end of college, he got a job as a daycare attendant/teacher at the pizza plex. Ash finished college and moved in with Jacob (got married!!!) and got a job as a technician (or whatever the people that work on the animatronics are called) so he could work with Jacob. And thatās the basic lore, I donāt really got much nailed down after that :p
Side notes:
Jacob is bi and Mexican American, he speaks fluent Spanish and has family in Mexico that he and Ash visit occasionally
Ash is gay and a quarter Cajun, his mother is from Acadiana, Louisiana and tried teaching him Cajun French but Ash sucks and only knows a bit (Iām not projecting my terrible French on him, shut up). He also has a wee bit of an accent that he got from his mother but heās a little self conscious about it.
Part of me likes the idea that Ashās father was the Freddy bully (and that he died late into ashās sophomore year) but also that completely ignores the Into the Pit game with Oswaldās dad :/ (but thatās and alternate timeline/universe so I donāt know)
The sport Jacob did in school was wrestling and football but he quit football after freshman year
Jacob is also surprising good at art, preferring do charcoal and pencil works. He also attends figure drawing classes when he has time.
For my own timeline, I think Cassieās father, Jeremy, got Staff Bot-ed tm before Ash became a technician and Ash was the direct replacement for him. Ash might have known Jeremy as like a family friend through Freddy bully, but Ash didnāt really know him or Cassie that well
Jacobās favorite animatronics are Toy Freddy and Glamrock Freddy, saying āI love Freddyās and theyāre the sweetest onesā. Ashās is Toy Bonnie and Roxanne Wolf, saying āI once found a toy Bonnie plush in the parking lot. I originally left it alone but it ended up in my car after work. I tossed it out but it just kept appearing in my car again and again, so I took it as a sign to keep it and I havenāt died yet! Oh and Roxy cause she likes to chew the heads off those god forsaken staff botsā¦ I hate those thingsā¦ā
Oh this is beautiful and made me think of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle.
But what if we make it Cleradin and Byler?
The story starts when Cleric!Will loses his memories in a fight they can barely remember. The mage of their Party, Jane, discovers that something has scattered Cleric!Willās memories across the multiverse. They need to retrieve the memory fragments in time or Cleric!Will is going to die.
She can open the portals needed for them to travel and retrieve each fragment, but thereās a price. Jane tells Paladin!Mike all the memories may be restoredā¦ except what matters most to him. She doesnāt say Michaelās name. She doesnāt have to.
Paladin!Mike takes the oath anyway: to travel across dimensions alongside the Party for as long as it takes. To restore Cleric!Will piece by piece. Even knowing that by the end of the journey, there may be no place left for him in Willās story.
They travel for years. With every fragment they recover, Cleric!Will becomes more himself again. And every time, Paladin!Mike tells himself nothing has changed.
Until the final fragments lead them to a world without magic, where another Party just like theirs is being hunted by the Mind Flayer itself. As they prepare to fight together, Paladin!Mike notices something he cannot explain.
In this world, Mike does not love Will. Itās not that he loves him secretly or unknowingly.
Mike simplyā¦ doesnāt.
But that canāt be. Paladin!Mike knows in his soul, in his divine oath, that he must love Will in every dimension of the multiverse.
Thatās when the Party realizes the truth: the spell didnāt just have a price. Something had been feeding on it. Twisting what they remembered.
It was the False Hydra all along.
Feeding on Cleric!Willās and Mikeās hearts. Weakening them in every world. Erasing the story their souls were trying to tell.
Now they finally have a way to end this nightmare: two enemies to defeat, and a love strong enough to survive being forgotten.
