It sucks having a creative brain (I guess??) but also anxiety.
I made this blog to share some lore from Julian Bakers' AU {even if half of the cast ain't canon (I retconned them, fun fact)} @phobia-qna
I just got another ask/rp blog idea, but with an Afton Family AU that is also important to this huge ass story I got going on with my smol multiverse, but I'd like to at least wait until this ask/rp blog properly dies before I work on another one!
Seriously, I need to start pushing myself to do this shit more lol
More specifically... where the night terrors reside. These things typically feed off the fears of children and adults alike, from what I've seen. However, there are a few who don't mind getting their hands dirty, as they are also well known for flat-out killing their victims. Shocker, yeah, I know.
... That was sarcasm, by the way.
This is where you'll find the phobias, or rather, creatures representing certain phobias. This is.. also... an artificial recreation of their forest and, currently, they are a bit pissy at the moment, being that I just yoinked them straaaaight out of their universe, haha! Unfortunately, a few other terrors were also caught up in the teleportation process, so do be careful while wandering about. The inhabitants here are unable to harm you, so you can ragebait them as much as you'd like.. just don't get too personal, or else I will temporarily turn off friendly fire. Hmmmmmm, got that? Good. Before you can start this questions and answers thingamajig, however, there are some more rules I would like to cover [meanwhile, I, zee mod, will translate for you Tumblrites]:
Since they cannot hurt you, you are also unable to hurt them. Again, friendly fire is on. This means: no biting, no slashing, no blasting them with a death ray (yes, someone was lucid enough to conjure THAT), none of that stuff. [Self explanatory!]
You can still use magic, if it's not intended to do harm, it's effects will just last shorter (preferably 2 or 3 asks). [This extends to anons, too! Meaning that magic anons are allowed :3]
If you wish to do some shenanigans, albiet appropriate and "safe for work", with them, then you may. [RP is allowed and may or may not also be encouraged to prevent me from rotting in my living room... :D]
Although this... *checks phone, squinting at the tiny text* ... blog.. *tosses phone behind him* is mainly aimed at the phobias, there might be a chance or few for other terrors to become involved. [Events, baby! They won't be a common thing, unfortunately-]
Ok, that last one wasn't necessarily a rule, but I forgot to mention it earlier.. oh well. Aaaaaand this concludes our intro! I must get going now, the forgotten one doesn't like waiting about! Duces.
*The Zooble-look-a-like weirdo bolts away from you, quickly disappearing into the cluster of trees. ... Did he even give you his name???*

[Would be in a different post, but none right now. Sorry if this seems rushed, I have not had a day off of work since Thursday lol]
This blog is a WIP, I won't be able to fully work on it just yet due to responsibilities needing to be taken care of (adulting sucks lol)
The jist: you get to ask a handful of -phobias that live in the dream realm of Julian Bakers' AU. Since I'm actually reworking the entire dream realm, some -phobias actually aren't canon! To prevent confusion, I'll label which -phobias aren't canon when I get to the list, lol. There is a high chance that the FNAF 4 animatronics (which are actually flesh and blood here) could pop up or get mentioned.
The creation of this blog is mainly inspired by @get-pwned-lolz (special shout out to @therealspecterforsaken for funzies). So, I guess this could also double as a rp blog, tho rps could potentially take a moment to get responses due to IRL RESPONSIBILITIES :(
Anyways, like pwned, I would be giving each -phobia their own tags :3
Current tags:
Who's Nightmare? (The fear or mannequins)
Too many hench-dolls! (Po, the fear of puppets)
TBD (Arch, the fear of spiders)
A little cramped here! (Claus, the fear of tight enclosed spaces)
I see you~ (Tryp, the fear of small clustered holes)
