I Think It's Really Weird To See Pomni Smile Like That, But I Guess This Isn't The Jester We Know Is

Doodle of the day here with some classic father son bonding.

Since the Rise turtles have regular phones, I’d like to say that in the Mutant Mashup AU 2012 Mikey was The Kid With A Crusty IPad. Tell me I’m wrong. Also he has downloaded so, SO many mobile games that no knows how his phone even turns on

Mutant Mashup AU by me and @sillyandquest but mostly them

Oh yeah, I drew this a while ago and finished it recently. Just Bill with his puppet introducing you to Weirdmaggedon.

Looking at this drawing now led to some thoughts about why Bill possesses Jax. Y'all can read under the cut if you want.

Thanks to The Book of Bill and watching/reading others analyze Bill as a character, I think he's easier to understand than Jax. TADC is still pretty new, and only two episodes have come out far, so most of what I have on Jax is mostly speculation. We don't know if he's a sympathetic character or was born a jerk and we only know small tidbits like him being scared of corn for some reason. Thankfully @gooseworx has stated that we'll have an episode that'll flesh out Jax's character more, but for now we'll just have to speculate until then.

Since we don't know much about what Jax is thinking at any given time other than that he enjoys causing chaos for his own amusement so far, I'm not entirely sure if he would willingly allow Bill to puppet his body. Chances are he doesn't, at least not at first, and Jax is clever enough to know that Bill's hiding something.

As for how Bill even got into the circus in the first place, he is a dream demon. One that can enter the dreams of any living creature. While you might think that the cast members don't sleep or that Bill can't get to them since they're stuck in a digital hellscape, they are ultimately human. Ep. 2 of TADC even opens with Pomni having and waking up from a scary dream, so it's not that farfetched to say that Bill could reach the cast members.

But there's also the issue of why Bill would even be in the Digital Circus. Is it cause he's intrigued? Bored? Just stumbled on it and got curious? Any one of these reasons seems plausible so we'll leave that up to the imagination. There's also the question of even if Bill could posses someone in the circus, why would he? The cast is stuck there with no way out. There's different ways to go about it. One idea is to have the circus be a forgotten game, but still accessible on the Internet. You could still play it, but why would you if you never heard of C&A and all merchandise and marketing was pulled off of store shelves? Maybe the cast members were employees that were silenced or something of that nature.

The only way I see Bill wanting to take over the circus is if the circus itself is an entirely different reality than the real world the cast members used to live in. Bill already likes it weird and thanks to Caine there's no shortage of wacky shenanigans ready to be experienced. Honestly, that might mean that Bill would try to possess Caine, but he can't cause Caine's an AI. An advanced one to be sure, but still an AI.

I imagine Bill would either stay away from Pomni, get rid of her or potentially be a little fond of her. We know thanks to The Book of Bill that the guy's parents were red and blue triangles and frequently draws them during arts and crafts while in The Theraprism. Pomni would definitely remind Bill of his parents and what he did to them, that's why I'm not entirely sure if he would be okay with her around. Honestly though if it weren't for her colors then she'd actually be the first person Bill would make a deal with. She's smart and determined, but also desperate. Perfect for a deal if it weren't for lingering regrets Bill refuses to deal with.

Ragatha's a completely different story. She's gentle and kind, bordering on condescending, but she truly means well. Bill would probably find her boring and be uninterested with what happens to her. I think Bill might consider Ragatha a pawn at best because of her passivity.

Zooble we don't have much info about, but we do know that they're uninterested with whatever Caine offers and does her own thing most of the time. This'll probably change down the line, but for now I'm gonna say that Bill would find their "take apart, put back together" body interesting for a while and consider making a fidget toy out of Zooble.

Gangle's very emotional and the comedy/tragedy mask alters her personality which makes her a bit unpredictable. Otherwise, I don't see Bill being too interested in her and might not even care enough to bully her. If anything, I think he'd consider her "figurine thing" concerning.

Kinger's kinda kooky already and I think Bill would find him hilarious. At the very least Bill's gonna laugh at the tragedy that Kinger represents within the circus. Beyond that though, Kinger's mind is just too broken for him to make a deal with Bill.

Finally we have Jax. Like Pomni, Jax is smart and capable. He's confident and is really good at getting into places where he shouldn't. This is why I think Bill would offer up a deal with Jax, even if Jax turns him down at first. I think Bill would follow Jax around, revel in the rabbits chaos and offer up small ways to make it "more interesting." At first, Jax disregards Bill and his tips but eventually he gives it a try. Whether through curiosity or sheer boredom, Jax follows Bill's advice and has a great time. The more fun Jax has, the more he trusts Bill, leading to Bill's final trick.

However, something goes wrong. Bill starts to connect with Jax. They bond more and more over chaos and their desire for control. As time goes on, both Bill and Jax develop a genuine friendship. (A chaotic and arguably toxic friendship, but still a friendship nonetheless). Soon enough, the two make a deal, one that gave Jax endless entertainment at the cost of his digital body.

I'll leave it at that for now. If you made it to the end, thanks a lot! There's still plenty more to think about when it comes to these goobers so if anybody wants to add more to this I'd like to hear it.

Ah yes, posing dramatically whilst staring into the sunset.

Lovin' it. Keep it up guys, you're stronger than you know, even if you don't feel that way.

I assume in chapter 1 Huggy Wuggy is dead and is taken by the prototype then mommy long legs, dogday, miss delight, daddy long legs, baby long legs, mini Huggies, bunzo bunny, pj pug a pillar, mini smiling critters, Bron, boogie bot, candy cat, cat bee, daisy, smiling critters, miss delight’s sisters and now catnap right?

Huggy was definitely killed, Poppy confirmed that. Not sure if the Prototype took him but I think it's likely.

All the smaller toys in chapter 2 were killed by Mommy and strung up on the ceiling, we just can't see em properly cuz it's too dark. Maybe they got snatched by the Prototype, but I don't think so considering the fact that he's only taken the experiments from the Bigger Bodies Initiative.

I know that because there are small toys like Bron, Candy Cat, and Catbee strewn about the place. If the Prototype collected every toy, then we wouldn't see the smaller toys torn apart and left behind.

When it comes to the spider family, I wonder if Mommy Long Legs ate Daddy Long Legs. The toys were starving for a while, but Mommy looks fine and dandy for the most part. Dear God, I don't like what that implies for Baby long legs, hopefully he was never fully realized as a Bigger Bodies experiment.

The Delight sisters were eaten by Miss Delight herself and the school was boarded off from the rest of Playcare, so probably not taken by the Prototype.

This is probably mean but damn. I was already having a bad day I really didn't need this at Peter Piper of all places.

Remember yesterday when I said if it weren't for the colors, Pomni would actually be the first one Bill would make a deal with?

Ramblings below the cut!

I honestly really like this, but I think she looks too much like regular Pomni. I think it's the hat and colors. If I redraw this then I'd probably swap Pomni's hat w/ Bill's and add more triangles to her clothes, maybe swap out the pom poms for triangle charms.

Y'know in hindsight, Pomni and Bill use completely different shapes. Which, duh right? Pomni = circles, Bill = dorito triangle. I remember trying to make her hat be very sharp and triangular but when I did the line art it came out softer. Not a bad thing since Pomni is far more compassionate than Bill and this is a deliberate imagining of: if Bill possessed Pomni, what would he prefer she wear? Maybe I'm just being too critical, I'm not trying to draw a fusion. When I drew Bill Jax, he looked a lot like "Jax but formal," didn't even have to color the eyes. Through that lens I think I did pretty good with this drawing.

How da heck did I not see this???? That looks so good???????

!!CW!! Broken bones and blood

I was listening to an edgy song and remembered “puppeteer Gaggle” from @sm-baby’s Carnival AU, and and got an idea

I’m planning on making a digital version that’s a bit more… intense but have this for now

Bonus:

If you can’t make it out Gaggle is saying “I had a bad day, so blorbo had to suffer lol (dw I’ll write some fluff when he respawns)

Happy Anniversary FNAF

Thanks Scott!!
