So I have a lot of headcanons regarding the lore and timeline of Five Nights at Freddy’s. Most of them align with what people believe is canon, or what half of the community believes is canon, but I have a few that are pretty unpopular, such as The Yellow Guy in Midnight Motorist being William Afton’s father instead of William Afton himself, FNaF 3 being set in 2017 instead of 2023, and Security Breach being set in the year 2022 instead of the 2030s. But, none are as unpopular as this, arguably one of the most controversial ideas in the entire community, I don’t believe that Michael Afton is Foxybro. The reason I think this is because I don’t think that there’s enough evidence to support the idea of them being the same person, and even if there is some, there’s also an equal amount of evidence to support the ideas of him either being the Crying Child, or being a completely separate character from both CC and Foxybro. So my two headcanons are that Michael is either the Crying Child, or is the oldest Afton child (with Foxybro being the second oldest). So here are some diagrams I made displaying my two headcanons:
What do you think? Please politely let me know your thoughts on it.
