I’m a big fan of when people characterize William as proud to be British.
The funny thing is Michael was really really trying to be evil, but he kind of sucked at it. When he first showed up, he was trying to be creepy and mysterious, but instead he just sounded goofy. People in the theater I was at were literally giggling. Then at the end, everything he says and does is just so stereotypically supervillain that he must have been studying superhero comics and Scooby Doo episodes to prepare for this moment. Then he's like "I'm going to continue my father's legacy by killing everyone in the town!" which makes no fucking sense because it's not at all in line with what William does. Then he's defeated before the plan even starts, so he runs away but doesn't get very far before being knocked to the floor by Jeremiah. It's incredible. Listen buddy, this just isn't for you.
Game Michael is pretty much always seen self identifying as Mike, like on the keypad in Sister Location, writing his name in the Survival Logbook and Ticket to Fun, and using the name Mike Schmidt in FNAF 1. I always believed this was because Michael was the name William gave him and the one William used the most on him. He started going by Mike to try to put some space there and gain some independence, and as an act of defiance and reclaiming some of himself. This makes sense seeing that the only time we see him self identify as Michael is when talking to William. And I know many other people believe this as well. Which is why it was so jarring to see in the FNAF 2 movie when the investigators show up and address him as Mike, and he goes out of his way to ask them to call him Michael, because in this universe he is proud of the name his benevolent father gave him. It's actually kind of maddening when I think about it for too long because movie Michael is like everything game Michael would hate to have seem himself become.
OKAY SO WHY DID I NOT SEE ANYONE TALKING ABOUT THESE PICTURES OF MICHAEL FROM THE AFTON HOUSEHOLD IN VANESSA'S NIGHTMARE??? I'm only now seeing these because I watched this video where a lot of the other pictures started circulating from but why did no one show me Michael feeding the ducks?!
Something I find really funny is how Michael eats his popcorn out of a movie style popcorn bowl. Microwaveable popcorn doesn’t come in bowls of those size (I don’t think, I’ve never seen it), but you can buy them to put popcorn in, discardable ones or even plastic reusable ones.
So like he can’t just make the popcorn and eat it out of the bag. He has to make it and then put it in a separate bowl. Which I know that’s a thing people do sometimes, but also he’d probably have to make several bags to fill it all the way to the top which is just so much. Like it’s literally overflowing, and it’s like that every night of Sister Location too like he really just got home after narrowly avoiding death and was like alright time to make five bags of popcorn to put in this bowl. INCLUDING NIGHT 4 by the way 😭 Also another thing that gets me is how according to the room in SB there’s just a single chair there for watching TV. Like for years I’d just assumed it was a couch but no it’s a designated TV watching corner. I mean this in the most affectionate way possible, he pisses me off.
This was funnier in my head I think
Love that William being springlocked is a canon event and each time it's extremely embarrassing.
Games: He was scared by little ghost children, and his solution is to hop in The Suit That Will Kill You If It Gets Slightly Wet while he's covered in sweat and in a run down leaky building, then he laughs at them thinking he has outsmarted them.
Books: The robot daughter of his ex best friend who he envies to an unhealthy degree activates the springlocks and delivers a hard ass line using his own words against him: "You want to be one of them? Be one of them."
Movies: An animatronic cupcake takes a bite out of the suit, activating the springlocks.
Is there a diagnosis that can explain why he is like this
