wait you called it the "tangle" is there a lore reason why it's not called the blob anymore? I haven't kept up since ruin.

[@StrikeCrossoverNexus]

I think help wanted 2 and ruin follow the original security breach story We where supposed to shatter daycare attendant, Monty, Roxy and then Chica in that order before 1 of the 3 glamrocks got pushed to the post game and moons bossbattle was scrapped.

[@the-amazing-super-W]

don't forget, there are employees that are trying to rebuilt the pizzaplex as seen by the big banner in the lobby and other stuff like the freddy head being ripped off the body by chains. maybe cassie dad was a tech guy who worked at the pizzaplex, then was sent into the ruin pizzaplex by fazbear to do something? because that that, the events in help wanted 2 happen.

[@devonbiasi7350]

There is a problem with how you described Freddy's body in the SB: Princess Quest Ending and Ruin. In SB he is on his back, on the floor, and surrounded by deactivated staff-bots. In Ruin he is is his chest, on a pile of debris. Rolling him over on the floor would be relatively easy, but the debris wasn't there in the Princess Quest ending.

[@StrikeCrossoverNexus]

i think every ending happened but not in the way we are shown The Burntrap ending happens first. That’s why Burntrap is gone in ruin, he was absorbed into the Tangle and why the tangle no longer has red eyes, and that's how the pizzaplex was destroyed, the blob tunnelled through the place and caused an earthquake. But we don't go to that hill just yet Next the Vanny ending happened where Gregory won princess quest Four and trapped Vannys consciousness outside of Vanessa while freddys body was left for dead and Gregory took his head away from the main pizzaplex Then the fire ending happened but vanessa joined Freddy and Gregory as they left the pizzaplex instead of freddy and vanessa dyeing. But the biggest change is that its flipped. Vanessa escaped while Vanny was trapped in the pizzaplex and in princess quest Four while Vanessa is free. Vanny is left Without a host and without a body. As for the van ending Vanessa is the one driving the van (OBVIOUSLY) and instead of the newspaper about the new face of fazbear entertainment its instead the 3 of them sitting on a hill with icecream from the 3 star ending then finally the alleyway ending, I feel like its more symbolic if anything. After the trio enjoyed the sunrise they moved into vanessas place and get too see the real nice vanessa…but Gregory still has issues trusting her and is worried she’ll turn into vanny again.

Theory on Freddy, I think that “ice cream cake” minigame is bogus. It’s in the AR world, so what we’re seeing is likely fake anyways, but we’re messing with the damaged parts of him, his messed up arms, his caved in torso, and his missing head. How does the head factor in? He talks about not seeing us due to his ocular fluid being frozen, but no matter how much heat gun you use on his eyes, he can’t see, almost like there’s nothing there to melt. So, if that’s the case, I wonder what we’re really taking out and replacing from his chest cavity, maybe the present that he had in his stomach hatch when ruin started? After all, the only thing we see in his stomach previously is a present, so replacing the missing present makes sense, and would explain why there is a new one in his stomach without this being a new freddy

[@bakerybot_aep]

THIS! This is so smart! I came to the comments to leave one of my own about the Freddy minigame being in AR so that's why he looks so fixed, but I never even thought about the idea that the REAL freddy is actually there behind the mask, and that we're taking something else out of his chest. This all lines up so perfectly, I hope something comes out of it!

Oh gosh you're so right. I hate it but it's very possible. So that only leaves the prototype thing.

Hold on, actually the gift isn't in Freddy by the end of SB, so what are we taking out of him before putting in the new present?

[@fuzzywyverns8561]

But it would be weird for the people responsible for translating the dialogue (and it was likely outsourced to another company) to be given definitive confirmation for a detail like that. Maybe they just assumed like many of us that the princess quest ending was canon and that Gregory was talking about Vanessa, the former security guard who would have access to the plex’s floor plans because of her job. Nothing is outside the realm of possibility for hidden lore details in this franchise but without a way to actually confirm it, we can’t know for sure if that was something the devs were actually intending to be used as evidence. They’re still human after all, and sometimes things just slip through. Things get mistranslated all the time, the dev team’s primary focus is on the version of the game that is in the default language so they’re probably not thinking about the other versions as a place to hide secrets when they don’t even have enough time to finish the game in the first place. (Remember, crunch culture means that everyone suffers in the gaming industry, the devs, the players, the game itself, and even if it means the game comes out in time for peak sales periods, the game will gain a bad reputation if it’s riddled with game breaking glitches and bugs. *glares meaningfully at the corporate entity responsible for pushing security breach as a big important PS5 title to be released before christmas a few years ago*)

[@bakerybot_aep]

You mentioned you were unsure why Freddy looks in such good condition in his HW2 minigame, and I think I have a good answer for that. We see Ruined Chica having lost her hand, and Shattered Roxy becoming Ruined Roxy in the version of the game that canonically happens in the real world. The Freddy minigame is one we complete when the mask is still on.

[@ant3t3]

I've always been a believer in multiple of the endings being canon I don't even question it, it's just how it is, but I do really like the actual explanation for it haha

[@UnderworldsHeiress]

Exactly, like Undertale or Pizzaria Simulator were all endings complement each other. They explain the same story but in a way it complements each other and not contrast each other. The rooftop could be explaining exactly that: Vanny is the virus in the mind of Vanessa, you can kill Vanny and keep Vanessa safe but if you kill Vanessa both "die" (or just release Vanny to look for a new host while Vanessa's spirit will forever be trapped on the building because she died in agony)

[@the-amazing-super-W]

don't forget, there are employees that are trying to rebuilt the pizzaplex as seen by the big banner in the lobby and other stuff like the freddy head being ripped off the body by chains. maybe cassie dad was a tech guy who worked at the pizzaplex, then was sent into the ruin pizzaplex by fazbear to do something? because that that, the events in help wanted 2 happen.

[@v1ct0rygames32]

This is a good theory. One issue: the Burntrap bossfight room isn't crumbled in RUIN like it should be in the ending. Personally, I still believe the PQ ending is canon, but PQ3 simply didn't get rid of Glitchtrap, rather stripping it down to only a line of code (also hinted to by a cut voiceline stating that Glitchtrap only has a line of code left), which we (as Cassie's dad) and the White Rabbit (what I call Vanny, given she's been separated from Vanessa) finally delete during the events of HW2

[@bossbrozork3022]

Probably The last hit on burntrap caused a hole in the wall conveniently behind freddy and Gregory so they escaped through there and burntrap tried to chased them down but couldn't keep up.

[@Joe-bc5hb]

Vanny being a separate entity kinda supports what we see in the burning building ending when there’s 2 Vanessa’s

[@MichaelHaneline]

Why can't the Freddy in the Freezer just be a simulation of the past? Like, obviously some, if not all, of the training sequences are simulated. We work on Roxy before she gets her face smashed in, Chica before her damage, and at multiple events at Fallfest in 1983...

[@rifarira9160]

this

[@syweb2]

Why not just spread out how long the game takes? It doesn't necessarily have to happen all in one sitting for the player character; perhaps some of these are from when he starts out, like the early Food Service games or Cold Storage, and some later minigames take place between SB and Ruin.

[@richarda160]

I think the two endings canonically happen “back to back”; beat burntrap and then you free Vanessa with whatever amount of time separating the two. Just like I believe HW2’s events are happening at different times in the canon (no elaboration here) Just my thoughts quickly 😮‍💨 [Ruins ending I think was left open with the two options to give room for what they decide to do with the story at the time - we know more now]

[@Midnightlunar10]

I fully agree. Gregory goes down to the Pizzaplex basement, defeats burntrap, escapes with Freddy, then does the Vanny ending and leaves with Vanessa possibly hours or even minutes before the Pizzaplex caves in.

[@patonnight]

Finally, this always seemed like the definitive answer and the evidence all point towards it, thank you for showing it us. Also, an additional detail: At the beginning on SB, we can take from the notes that PQ1 & 2 have already been beaten, yet Gregory is unable to play PQ3 without beating the previous two himself. That means that is mandatory that it is the same person that has to beat all the PQ arcades. So... If Jeremy is able to play PQ4, it is because he was the one who completer PQ1, 2 and 3.

One other thing that would also be noted is that "the witch finally had her meal." It might imply that through Greg trying to help her, only made her deeper in the pit

[@ystacalden]

I think in the Burntrap ending, when Tangle grabs Burntrap, it rips an arm off and the Mimic self-repairs with the arm, which is why that arm matches Burntrap, but the other doesnt, and explains why there's behaviour differences.

[@JinxeBlaq]

I believe it’s none of them, I think all the comics are Gregory’s way to cope with everything that happened, so the true ending is a strange mix of them, or none of them.. Though one point you missed is the whole thing about the Pizzaplex being ruined due to an earthquake, not it being burned down, which is also shown by the fact that the Burntrap room isn’t burned down, and looks completely different.. Which can also support Gregory not actually having gone down there to beat Burntrap.

YES! Gregory doing the burntrap ending and Jeremey doing the princess quest ending separately makes so much sense. I had figured Gregory did both, doing the princess quest ending first and then later returning with vanny, freddy, or both to do the burntrap ending (i think you had a theory about that too) but it makes way more sense that cassie's dad did princess quest quietly in the backround of SB. Great theory!

[@birdmcturd1626]

Burntrap also “powers up” Glitchtrap in his ending. That’s how Glitchtrap takes over Freddy. Burntrap touches the screen and suddenly Freddy’s eyes turn purple and he attacks Gregory. That’s not something the mimic could do. Also,the fnaf encyclopaedia (even if most people don’t trust it,it does at least show the intention of the creators) says on Burntrap’s page “Fuelled by whatever was inside Springtrap,which appears to have lived on in the form of Glitchtrap”

[@pinknblackproductions]

While I understand that the "Monty destroyed Bonnie" thing is probably canon it still doesn't make any sense to me. 1 - Monty had no motive, in Ruin we get proof that he hated Freddy, not Bonnie. 2 - if Monty's motive was just to get in the band why does he skip practice to go lurk where Bonnie was last reported being seen? (Duffle bag report) 3 - the last known sighting of Bonnie was reported by Vanessa and I don't believe anything she says cuz she's a brainwashed liar 4 - Bonnie's damage is almost identical to the damage Freddy obtained when he was set upon by the StaffBots in the "dismantle Vanny" and "princess quest" ending 5 - the damage on Bonnie also indicated claws were used but Monty didn't get the claw upgrades until after Bonnie went missing 6 - if Bonnie was last seen in Gator Golf how did he get back to his bowling alley without being seen/why didn't Monty just destroy him there? Monty straight up is not intelligent enough to not just destroy him right there he doesn't have enough brain cells to either follow Bonnie back to his room or take him back (tho damage shows he was destroyed in the bowling alley not moved there after the fact) Basically SteelWool can say it's canon all they want but their own story telling makes me think it was the staff bots on Vanny's orders. Why? Cuz it seems that Bonnie was an original security node to keep the mimic trapped.

[@agnesterek7530]

I've seen some people theorizing that he may have done it under the effect of the virus but your last two points give enough reason to debunk that as well. Poor guy was 100% used as an scapegoat to hide the suspicious circumstances of Bonnie's disappearance.

[@MahNamJeff]

6 actually has an answer, he was dragged there. If you look closely, bonnie is actually laying on a ripped on some kind of mat or carpet that you only see In monty golf. and as for the staffbot damage on Freddy? its a victim of Developer intent and unused content, as the shattered Freddy design used in the game was intended for a scene where Freddy's own bandmates as found by data miners in the unused voicelines destroyed him, not staff bots, meaning Bonnies design lines up.

[@tinaherr3856]

For #5, Monty could still slash Bonnie. The Freddy and Roxy have claws, but they don't have the upgrades. So it is entirely possible that Monty had claws before replacing Bonnie, and the upgrades didn't give him claws, just enhanced them

[@deliacordero110]

honestly, the more theories i watch, the more i start to believe that steel wool is doing multiple endings to confuse people, but also to not do a single ending with multiple things that can't be put together. like with the burntrap and princess quest endings, if you try to put both of those storytelling elements together, they don't really fit, and it makes it harder to have a cohesive ending. but they're separate, and that helps them in the sense that they can grab bits of what both endings imply to develop the story further without compromising on what they want/can do in the future

"One of the best parts about a FNaF game is honestly what it changes about what we know about other FNaF games." Funny, some people would call that the WORST part about a FNaF game.

[@KonoSett]

honestly it feels like they had an ending picked out from one of these 2, saw alot of theories around it being close, if not absolutely correct, and changed a few things around to make it a guess instead, hence why both endings make complete sense after hw2.

[@AirQuotes2962]

The thing about Bonnie's death is the motive. It obviously wasn't for his endoskeleton, like we all initially thought. The only real motive I can see for why they didn't just replace Bonnie was that he was catching onto what was happening. I could even see Bonnie removing himself from the system intentionally after catching onto what's happening inside it. If that happened, then Glitchtrap and Vanny would need to stop Bonnie. And if he really did remove himself from the system, they couldn't just plug his personality chip into a new endo and replace him, which is why they didn't. The thing is, if this really is the motive for killing Bonnie, then while it was probably the other animatronics who killed Bonnie, they were being controlled by Glitchtrap directly. And if that is true, while it probably was Monty, there's no reason why it HAS to be Monty, or if it has to be JUST Monty. I think it's more likely that the entire Glamrock band, possessed by Glitchtrap, cornered him in Monty Golf to take him apart. It could even lead to a really sad, emotional moment between Freddy and Bonnie, as Freddy unknowingly was behind his destruction.

[@epicman4516]

I think after seeing this video that three endings could be canon after all the pizzaplex is a very big building. What happens in one part of the building could potentially not happen in another part. Since the burntrap ending happens deep underground it could theoretically only collapse everything around the sinkhole a bit more. So the could actually escape from there get back up to the garage and steal a freddy van and escape the pizzaplex. Where Gregory figures out how to recharge freddy. This could lead to one of two possibilities for the third ending. Either Jermery (Working Name) or Gregory could have done the vanny ending and freed the glitched up part of vanny. But those thoughts and feelings don’t just immediately disappear from her psyche, which could still lead to vanny still being a sociopath.

[@ShiMusume]

I actually like the idea of Vanny and Vanessa being split. After all, isn't there an ending where you see two of them?

[@Heartless_13224]

One thing to think about it. In Help Wanted 2, you play the Chica and Roxy mini games with/without the mask on. Since the mask alters your perception of your environment, it suggests that the Chica/Roxy are actually ruined in the entire time but the mask makes it look like they are okay in the early games. It is reasonable to think that Freddy is also ruined during his minigame but the mask hides that. Maybe you have actually working on the headless freddy and you don't realize it. Or you have getting the early prototype out of the cold storage to replace the headless Freddy.

[@SuperDead82]

i always believed because gergory is a kid, and you "see" the world from his eyes it would make sense that every ending is both canon and not canon, and the 1 star ending is a nightmare of some sort and in ruin DLC, bits of every endings are used to proved that because gergory is a kid, some scenes may never actually happened and replaying the game? its happening in his head

One detail that bothers me about the Monty/Bonnie situation is that Monty didn't get his upgraded claws until after Bonnie was out of commission, but Bonnie was covered in claw marks.

[@toypikachutheoctoling6029]

What it potentially could be is, Vanessa is using the Vanny Suit, under good circumstances to at least in her mind right the wrongs she did when under the Mimic01 Program it's why she crushes Glitchtrap at the end of HW2 Princess Quest Ending meaning she finally put that part of her down once and for all

[@Moonlight_0419]

About the arcade conspiracy guy, it couldn't have possibly been him to free Vanessa from her Glitchtraped state because in one of his logs, he complained how he did 1-3 of the PQ arcade machines, yet for some reason he was still unable to play the 3rd one. Gregory on the other hand can beat 1-3 and Cassie's dad had managed to finish what Gregory started. So it's thanks to Gregory that Cassie's dad can finally feel "worthy of the princess."

[@shadowkittyclaw5688]

Honestly I think that both the burntrap and princess quest endings are canon, but with the burntrap ending being why in ruin that the place is destroyed and the princess quest ending being why Glamrock Freddy was replaced with a prototype, as before the repair Vanessa says to Glamrock Freddy that they can just get a new endoskeleton and suit to replace him.

Simply because it's even hinted out in the novel Bobbidots Conclusion, where Gregory writes an essay about an "animatronic supervillain fighting a tentacle monster". this is a clear reference to the Burntrap Ending with Burntrap as the "animatronic supervillain" and Tangle as the "tentacle monster".

[@BleuchuCake]

I would believe that if it wasn't for the fact the area where the Burntrap ending is, is completely still in tact. No sign of a battle or the fire that happened. Plus, all the animatronics shouldn't have existed in Ruin because all of them were down there when it came crashing down. Also the pizzaplex wasn't burned down, it was hit by an earthquake according to the newspaper scattered everywhere. There's too many things contradicting that ending for it to be canon anymore. It could be possibly that parts of it did happen but not the part with Burntrap.

... To be honest? I feel like it's a fake-out. Like, each ending gives us a piece of what actually happened, rather than any one of them being literal

[@AprilSunshine]

The canon ending was deliberately left vague, then retconned because the fanbase hated seeing William back. Done.

10:11 I think that Monty destroying Bonnie wasn’t well thought by steelwool if it’s the, Monty only gets his claws after Bonnie is destroyed. It’s like if I kill someone to get their gun using their gun.

[@WatariInferno]

Maybe in a future game it will go over why Freddy had the prototype sticker on him maybe a game where it continues from where Cassie is

[@ScarlettKatty]

I definitely believed since Ruin came out that Burntrap and Princess Quest were both canon in a way. It just makes the most sense story wise. And yeah I won’t say I called it cause I never went out to say it but I think it’s just the best way to explain Ruins well ruined appearance and missing Vanny and other stuff.

[@SAM.L.MADE.OFFICIAL]

I have a wild theory just for fun-Just occurred to me and may be totally off base.. what if the princess quest ending is cannon but in a prequel way? The three of them trying to do the “heist” situation you mention but it takes place before security breach. They are the security breach and they hack their way into the system, get Vanessa hired despite no experience, Vanessa gets put into Vanni and loses herself, forgets Gregory and their mission, steals the Freddy head back and put him back together (explanation for prototype vs og) and that’s why Gregory is there, why all the weirdness is there and then it’s them trying to get back out, following the burn trap ending. I can practically feel the hate coming my way for this theory.. it’s not fully fleshed out or explains anything but felt like a possibility that would be fun to explore ✌️

[@logansgamingchannel6169]

I suspected both endings happened but at least one not the way it was presented. I thought it was the burntrap ending as the room he came from doesn't have the damage from said ending. You, however, are proposing the opposite.

[@Tragedy_Puppet]

All FNaF Theories need to see this. And in my opinion, it’s the same as your theory. I do believe that both Afton Boss Fight and The Princess Quest Ending are both canon. And I’ve seen this theory from a KZbinr called Twisted Animatronic but I’m happy that people can get to agree to Twisted Animatronic’s theory and your theory

[@rileykazukiewicz636]

I just noticed this while watching this video but without the VANNI mask on, the sword in PQ III is actually a candle not super dissimilar from the ones you light in PQ IV

[@tristanbidwell7515]

I'm starting to think that the kill Vanny ending is cannon. For one, the Freddy we see in Ruin is broken in the same way the he gets broken in Security Breach. And we have no hard evidence of Freddy existing after Ruin. In that same vein, we have no evidence of Vanny existing after Security Breach. Now all the evidence I've put forward so far is pretty neutral. It doesn't point one way or the other, but you know what does point to the this ending being cannon? The normal ending of Help Wanted 2. Cassie's dad ends up trapped in the network of the Pizzaplex. How does that happen? He gets torn apart by Staff Bots in the same way as Vanny. Combine that with the fact that the only instance we see of Vanny after Security Breach is a data version of her that exists exclusively within the machine and I think there are legs to this possibility. In fact, I think all the bunny markings and insignias throughout Ruin may b a result of Vanny taking control of the Pizzaplex staffbots and having them mark her territory so to speak. (I recall everyone finding it odd that those markings existed in Ruin, but, if Vanny is trapped in the Pizzaplex with the Mimic, it makes a lot more sense). I know you might be thinking, how this could happen if the Princess Quest Machine had a sword through it in Ruin? I would posit that, if Cassie's Dad was able to play Princess Quest in between Security Breach and Ruin, that means Gregory couldn't have beaten Princess Quest in Security Breach. After all, why would Vanny's soul still be tied to the machine if she has already been freed? (And she is tied into it still since Vanny appears at the end of it). The only point of evidence against this is the drawings of Ruin, but I'm not certain that these drawing existing mean that this ending never happened. We still aren't 100% sure the relevance of these drawings at all, so I think it is fair to go forward with this in mind as a possible explanation.

[@Andreaisdeadly]

I wonder if the next dlc for security breach or possibly SB 2 would be a prequel. The people are starting to go missing and cassies dad meeting gregory, who has an explanation for the major power surge in the basement. Gregory being under the posession of glitch trap. He believes him being his daughters only friend. gregory leads him to the fnaf 6 pizzaria, where he starts to untangle the mystery. Vanessa knows if one of the staff messing with her plans and fires or kills them all leaving jeremy as the last technician. He is trained on eveey espect of the pizza plex now to fix an staff bot that malfunctions. Eventually she figures out its him actually trying to stop her and fires him too. He comes back after the burn trap ending to make sure burntrap or the mimic are gone and vanny kills him. A year passes and cassie gets a call to the pizza plex.

[@andrewmcmillin]

I misread the thumbnail and thought I missed some important lore about freddy in world war 2

[@vincentmorris8431]

The bit about Burntrap necessitates all 3, is something that particularly struck me, mainly as to how Ruin be from that if were to just follow PQ3. That if you spared Monty or Chica, they'd have a different model to the Ruineds we see. Either completely alt Ruineds with Monty legs, or just using their Shattereds. Chica appearing on the poster garnered hype until the trailer leaned us towards Roxy. Yet the entry pass cutout where Cassie grabs a flashlight stuck out to me as both girls were intact. There's also the question if they hold some vendetta on Gregory, as they can't voice it like Roxy, so if one was spared, maybe they'd be a touch less aggressive? I thought of something for a route of sparing Chica in base, doing PQ3 and returning the voicebox (maybe), tho I'm kinda unsure for Monty...

[@artbyphobia]

I just KNEW the burntrap ending was real, with evidence of Vanny never being set free from Afton's grasp, as shown in ruin from grafitti, the bad ending of HW2, ect. Even if this is not true and just a theory I like to think that theres more people just don't look into a lot.

[@Aiden_Salad25]

I just realized this, for the animatronics to be destroyed in ruin, the burntrap ending is the only one that could’ve happened because that’s the only ending where all the animatronics have to be destroyed

[@stevecejk773]

This is completely irrelevant to anything else in the video, but in the intro, non-Euclidian liquids are not a thing. I think you’re talking about non-Newtonian fluids, which change viscosity when force is exerted upon them. Oobleck is a classic example of a non-Newtonian fluid; it becomes more viscous when force is applied (hence, when you try to mix it with a spoon, it’ll start acting more like a solid, but it’ll flow through your fingers like a liquid). Keep being awesome, Toast. And know that Euclid is the geometry guy, not the physics guy 👍

[@Dragon_fruitx]

I originally thought that the burn trap was canon but now that I watch your vid I think it’s both

[@rainiedog]

“It’s uncut and moist.” Good thing I have on my apron.

[@Joseph125]

People always mention the 3 star ending in the "which one is canon" debate, but I've thought those mean something different since the release of security breach. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the number of stars match the number of characters who escape the pizzaplex? Princess Quest is 3 stars, as Gregory, Vanessa and Freddy ('s head) leave. Leaving straight away gets you 1 star as Vanessa and Freddy are left behind. Freddy and Gregory leave in burntrap and the fire ending, so 2 stars. Have I missed something?

[@sambish3961]

That makes so much sense! I totally missed that. I think you're right.

[@aydanneilson-bourke7378]

17:22 you know what it does say error when you get the ending. I cant imagine gregory playing the game and Vanny doesn't catch him

[@thatguyryan5902]

The security breach ending which shows that there are 2 Vanessa’s hints at this, that’s pretty sick lmao. I completely forgot about that ending but that totally checks out.

[@jordantrapo3069]

If the Burntrap ending happened with Tangle grabbing Burntrap while the Mimic was trapped in the very bottom, so this means Burntrap and the Mimic are 2 different characters

[@theluxalpha]

they could have trapped Mimic after SB

[@LingoENT]

I think the clean model of Freddy is just the way the mask shows everything for how it was “supposed to be” haven’t played but from all the videos I only see fresh animatronics, fresh as in the new to shelf look . Even tho Freddy looks fresh we seen the irl version of him in ruin

[@Spazy912]

If this is true that means prototype Freddy had a head before ruin meaning burntrap is canon or another ending plus he is on top of staffbots not underneath them if it was the same Freddy from princess quest

[@dinosparkle5746]

i like the idea of vanny splitting off from vanessa, rather than being destroyed, because that could also explain why in that one security breach ending where vanny falls off of the roof, vanessa is still there looking down at her

[@jeffreypikul6402]

Gregory and Vanessa could have worked together after security breach. Vanessa probably knew about the mimic, they worked together to lock it up and then it manipulated Cassie to come get it out.

[@monke7919]

Notably there are several details in ruin that have been retconed in to if always been true, for example Cassie talks about how her dad used to have a fazwrench so we know the wrench slots in animatronics isn't something new but something that has been changed to of always been there, sun/moon/eclipse have a fazwrench slot yet we don't think it's a different version, also notably vannesa says monty would replace freddy until they can put his casing on a new endo so there isn't multiple Freddy's only multiple generic endos that can be trained to be a freddy, so for prototype to be a different freddy fazbear would have to see freddy missing train a new endo put him in costume replace the missing head on the costume then the new freddy would have to go to the exact place that our freddy was in and get damaged in the exact same way and onto of all that fazbear would need to make the conscious choice to replace freddy but not replace or repair any of the other shattered animatronics so that they could then become their ruined versions by the time Cassie gets there

[@kevinahm3773]

Well I also think that the Burntrap ending and the princessquest ending happened. I also personally think that Glitchtrap is both the mimic and William Afton. Well the cyrcetboards of all animatroniks got scanned into Fnaf help wanted, maybe a digital copy from William Aftons mind that came from Scraptrap was scanned in too and attached itself to the mimic1 Programm and formed glitchtrap. Also cool video👍.

[@Naruku2121]

You could also take this into consideration to add on to Gregory did the Burn Trap ending and Jeremy did Princess Quest. The fact that there's no comic for Princess Quest in Ruin doesn't automatically make the ending it self the true ending at least in how we knew it. Though rather there is no comic for that because it was an ending that happened, but not from Gregory's perspective, but someone else's. Hence why there's a picture of Burntrap and the blob that Gregory could envisioned.

[@lividellis2757]

Another reason to add that burn trap is not the mimic and he is still William

[@artbyphobia]

I honestly have reasons to believe that Glitchtrap is William as well, obviously can't say that bc the controversy around it but still I just feel it for some reason

[@kimberly6890]

I personally think the first ending, Gregory getting kidnapped by vanny is the cannon ending. Because in ruin, we see missing posters of Gregory, and that’s another way the mimic could have Gregory‘s voice, because vanny took him. Idk I’m not a theorist or anything but that’s just my opinion 😁 Love ur theories!! ❤️

Burn trap ending is probably not canon because as i recall someone made a vid of FNaf Ruin and they glich out to go see the place where the charging pods are with the monitors.And the room is not destroyed.
