So after getting some positive response (before reddit nucked it, screw them), I want to post my AU idea...somewhere for some hopeful feedback.
Based on (or rather similar to) the FNAF Movie-verse (with some elements from the games) crossing over with the Together Again duology (A FNAF fangame)
Probably some elements from other FNAF fangames/mascot horror games in (though not so sure quite yet)
Some characters might have different personality/backstory than from the respective sources.
Already have a commissioned pilot for the AU: Whispers of Sunshine
AU takes place after the end of the 2nd movie (but Vanessa doesn't get possessed at the end and someone else 'finds' Springtrap)
Also pilot story takes place with Mike and Abby moving to Wisconsin, where he serves as the 2nd nightguard alongside Reagan Schmidt (no relations, and yes the same last names will be confusion between characters) Mike would later on take over for Reagan fully, not comfortable for letting a teenager work in a place that is haunted, no matter how much Reagan doesn't believe in 'haunted animatronics'.
There will be a redemption arc (or at least a start of one) for Charlie/Marionette, leading to a tense reunion with Vanessa...
Speaking of which, Vanessa's backstory will be different. She would grow up to be a Fazbear-licensed nightguard rather than a cop and be more complacent (if not very reluctantly) with William's deeds, bringing a lot more guilt to herself. In fact, after the Movie 2 events, she started traveling around the country, taking up temp night shifts at different establishments (Her deranged way of punishing herself)
The 5th child will be Cassidy (as in female Cassidy). Not that the boy from the movie was bad, just that I have a different idea for a backstory for Cassidy this time.
Speaking of the MCI, they (except Cassidy and Charlie) will not move on like what happened in the movie (dumb way to make them pass on BTW). Though they would be out of the animatronics, they would still be wandering. Same with the slayed kids from Lake's Funland game. Will have plans for both groups.
Rachel Waters, similar to Vanessa, will also have suicidal compulsions due to what she did, but she slowly starts healing after she hires Reagan, unaware she was hiring her granddaughter. BTW her alias (Helen Zawarski) is still intact in this AU
BTW Ashley Waters (Rachel Waters' daughter) still spends time outside her independent journalism to find her mother, years after the events of Lake Funland.
Other 'Handshakers' and Cherubs will show up in the AU (with one of them being very antagonistic)
Max and Harlan Magwood will also have a role somewhere
That's all the story ideas/plans I have so far. Hope to get some feedback while I get the next fanfic ready.
