Chapter 2 is finally up!!! Again, our apologies for taking so long to post, we've been busy as hell. This is a really fun chapter in my opinion, written by @firebugfrenzical. Cassie makes me SO emotional. I hope nothing bad happens to her ever. Ruin 2 better come out and be her having sunshine and rainbows time and getting a happy ending.

I was told the context of Jeremy and Mike's relationship so I drew Mike getting beat up.

Thank you for the explanation and the AU @firebugfrenzical, @hauntinglyghostie, and @denimscotch

the second I figure out how to get photos off my switch im subjecting everyone to the horrors (my tomodachi life save that is 90% made of replicant au characters)

[firebugfrenzical]

I replayed some of Into the Pit lately and I was inspired

[firebugfrenzical]

Do you think Fazbear would create a replicant michael?

The answer is: no. They'd considered a "Mike Schmidt" one at one point, though it was scrapped before much development and Michael Afton is considered "too taboo" even for them. They won't make a Henry Emily replicant for similar reasons, after some consideration.

It is a fun concept though :]

As someone who was born in New York, THAT MADE ME WHEEZE NO WAYYYY 😭🙏

Don't tell him about the Pentagon.

[firebugfrenzical]

I don't know if anyone has asked, but do replicants remember their past? Not just the past when they were alive, but also the past when they were dead?

If they think it's important enough

Jokes aside this is once again a Sort Of. FazEnt will provide information that they feel is necessary or benefits the established replicant. Arnold for instance would know of technological advancements he otherwise wouldn't have been around for, or Ralph being up to date when it comes to current market practices and company knowledge. As for the past their originals would have been around for, Replicants are generally limited to what was common knowledge and basic guesses regarding what their relationships and life might have been like from recorded information. It's lucky that FazEnt keeps quite the paper trail.

Some Replicants might even go out of their way to find more information, or they may have no interest at all. It depends on the one, and there are... some exceptions, of course.

I've had this one in my back pocket for a stint but kept forgetting to post it whoop

Did you know I love drawing the MXES

Ralph and Cassie also having a bond is so bittersweet because like-

Ralph was a dad. He had a daughter; one that just happened to be around Cassie's age the last time he saw her, so he would no doubt see his own little girl within the child.

Cassie was a daughter. She had a dad; one that went missing, and given what happened between Ralph and his daughter, I have no doubt in mind that Cassie would compare the two constantly.

Their relationship is something so beautiful out of something so broken 💔

"Your dad called into work again?"

Ralph was one of the first replicants Cassie became familiar with, before everything went wrong. He had a tendency to check in when her dad was working, and she came along because he didn't want to just leave her home. He's always been very kind- and he does remind her a lot of her own dad. Just more outwardly expressive /silly

Here's a small bit of writing under the cut as well:

She glanced upwards at the voice, staring maybe a little too closely for a moment.

Her eyes immediately focused on the seams trailing from the corners of his mouth. Just like Mister Afton, who was always in the lobby or Rockstar Row. Another replicant, dad said that was what they were called anyways. She couldn't quite help the frown that the thought gave her. He'd been a little... cagey about them, told her to just mind herself when she was near any. Always a little bitter when the topic came up, though she didn't know why.

"Uhm."

She tapped the back of her console before forcing her eyes up to meet the lenses of his glasses, and the smile on his face looked a little nervous after the extended quiet.

"Yeah. He said it would just be a few minutes but it's... been an hour I think. He probably just got caught up again."

Cassie shrugs her shoulders, and turns to look back down at her game. The man beside her hums, and she thinks it almost sounds kind of disappointed. She bites the inside of her cheek. It was a tone she was getting uncomfortably familiar with when she talked to people about her dad, but she never really knew what to say about it. He stood there for a few moments longer before she could hear steps fading away. Guess he must have better things to do.

She turns her attention back on her game. Villager hunting, she really wanted a new wolf to put on her island but she kept getting frogs and lions. She would even take a bird at this point, but-

Something is set in front of her and she startles, glancing up to look at the can of Roxy Cola. Ralph, that's what the name tag said at least, pulled his hand away and smiled at her. He looked nervous again, something that became even more evident as he started picking at the bandages around his hands when he spoke.

"I remember hearing your dad talk about how it's your favorite. He talks about you a lot- uh, not that I try to... eavesdrop or anything. Y'know. Just try to keep up to date, heh. Sorry if it's a little weird, I don't... get out much here."

She blinks at him, before gently setting her Switch down on the table and reaching forward to grab the can. Still cold. He must have just gotten it from a vending machine- does he get to use them for free because he's an animatronic? Did he have to use money? She kind of wanted to ask now, but instead what comes out is-

"He does?"

Ralph nods his head.

"Yeah- uh. At least that I over hear, we don't... talk much one on one. But I get it. If I could I'd probably talk on endlessly about my daughter, but I can't."

His brows furrow, before he's shaking his head.

"Hope your dad comes soon. I know our employee areas are much less exciting."

Cassie sighs, glaring to her side at the gray walls only broken up by a giant mural of Helpy. She doesn't even get it. He's not even a physical mascot, but they had that thing everywhere.

"Yeah. You'd think they'd at least put up a few more posters."

Ralph laughs, and she can feel the corners of her lips twitch into a smile as she cracked open the can of cola.

More Jeremy. Just anything Jeremy. Please I'm so starved for Jeremy content in this fandom and your AU makes me so insane

Some older and newer Jeremy doodles collected just for you anon :] both of Replicant Jeremy and Human Jeremy

Some of these are semi relevant, some are just doodles or concepts, a lot of these were done on a sit and draw stream and so not final. Kind of just a smattering... he'll probably get another rendered artwork here soon knowing me as well

[firebugfrenzical]

She's a switch gamer to me

I dont know why my images are cropped like that thanks tumblr

[firebugfrenzical]

I like your Replicant au. I also find it funny to imagine Michael's face when he saw his "alive" father again. It's like he's screaming "What the hell you're not dead! What the f...!"

The funniest part I think is I like to say Mike just. Has a face of constant and perpetual shock

His beady eyes just really make him look constantly surprised which, hey, its accurate most the time!
