    On the Micheal room: the Mimic story talks about how David and the Mimic created a mad up language that looks like hieroglyphics, so it’s possible that the Mimic is also connected to the recreation of Micheal’s Room. The spoiled elements of the epilogue seem to imply that Mimic1 acts like the central part of a system of mimic endos that observe behaviour in different locations. It’s possible that there might be mimics that end up disconnected from the main system (perhaps that is what is going on with the Endos in the Pizzaplex with the ‘training area’ posters. Since SB is all about split personalities (Vanessa, Daycare Attendant, and now Gregory) Mimic1 is possibly having a similar break. One side being the agony fueled purple guy side, while the other is more naive and trying to (re)create a family, making stuff like the post it room and Micheal’s room.

    @Sub Zero No. The mimic pretty much replicates what people think William Afton is from all of the rumors and theories. There is a huge leap on how William is actually like in the games and what the fans think of him. Here’s a hint. Scott does think of Magenta as a color that’s completely unique from purple and demonstrates this in Midnight Motorist. Scott also featured William Afton in Midnight Motorist and Fruity Maze as someone who buried his own Springlock ass in the MCI Killer’s backyard. Aka, the MCI Killer’s house doesn’t belong to William Afton. William potentially slept with the Killer’s wife, but that’s a whole can of Ballora we’re not ready to open.

    i think the blob now being a mass of agony from all the people the mimic has killed would make sense. The gorry detail the books go into on how horrific these deaths are also mentions how much agony the character is feeling while the mimic is killing them. The book the teens find also mentions how it functions like a springlock suit. You can literally just put a different shell on the same endo, which tells us why fazbear ent. would want the endo in the first place, and gives a hint on how burntrap has a fleshy corse instead of bones.

    I feel like the mimic was a retcon made after the reception of burntrap was a very loud “please go away” as well as mockery with peepaw. I mean, seriously, everything in the true ending points to it being afton with the vanny hideout, the Blob, and the files names, but then these books come along, insert themselves into the timeline with GGY only to introduce the mimic, a character that tries its best to look like afton with flesh and rabbit outfits. it just seems like scott panicking after pulling a dream theory again and retconning a new answer to please fans just like SL did with dream theory.

    Question: If the Mimic is responsible for ALL of the current going ons in the story, how do Vanessa and Gregory get possessed? Like how does the Mimic with no supernatural ability manage to possess and control people like machines? Also what would be the point of everything Patient 46 did if the evil going ons in the pizzaplex was just because the mimic was installed? Gregory wouldn’t have to do anything to tamper with things, it has all already been tampered with? Idk there are just some parts of this that are confusing to me, I’m not entirely against it though! Edit: Another question to think about is just what are the mimics motivations? In my opinion my only gripe with this idea is that the character would really have no motivation other than “Do what I saw William do” which at that point just feels like “Here’s William Afton but hollow and without purpose”

    Along with this, why the og Springtrap suit that mimic it's using it's almost "new" and his exact location if the suit it's basically a lot of ashes with little resemblance to a bunny trapped inside the ruins of Fazbear's fright ? Or why the mimic knows how to do an exact copy of Michael's room if basically no one wanted to be near of his rotten body ?, The only way he could know those things it's of he was William somehow, or had it's memories, that's the problem when you make a game where you make things really obvious and then you write a book where using the exact same resources you change everything

As for Vanny, I think she's still pissed by the Afton virus. I think she got infected and put it into the Mimic. Which makes the Mimic just a robot, but with the Afton virus twisting it even further.

    One small note, that body isn't Afton's. It looks nothing like his. It's described as "Afton's" because the mimic is convinced that it is Afton and that body now belongs to him, but the corpse is way too fresh to be william's. It's most likely Luca's corpse from Pressure. That story was about Williams legacy, and how despite literally becoming springtrap, Luca was able to not mimic his actions and instead stop a copycat killer cosplaying as springtrap, relating to the theme of copying Afton. If the mimic wants to replicate Afton, there's not only a suit in the Pizzaplex but a corpse inside of it as well. Why was the mimic written with the ability to go inside of costumes? To explain how he got inside of the springtrap suit in Pressure and became Burntrap.

    Matpat theorized that burntraps body is made from Glamrock Bonnie. While that’s interesting, but there’s a problem: Burntrap has 5 fingers. Even if his replacement left hand was from G Bonnie, why would it have 5, when the other Glamrocks have 4? Not to mention the claws on Burntrap look like claws from the nightmare robots. The Mimic is interesting, and would be a neat way to bring William back in a way no one expected. It’s hard to comprehend if this could be true or not. It’s best we wait for the next book to come out, and the DLC to see if this is what Steel Wool and Scott are planning to do.

    Freddy managed to not get possessed because of being in safe mode. Safe Mode is a mode that allows a piece of tech to be unaffected from any third party applications or programs. It exists so that things causing viruses can be deleted without interference. My previous phone was getting stuck in safe mode often and was increasingly harder to get out of safe mode. Something, possibly Gregory in his stomach hatch, caused Freddy to glitch out and reboot into safe mode. Whether or not he was under control of the Glitchtrap virus at the time is unknown but he probably was. Safe mode got rid of it. And Burntrap was trying to take Freddy out of safe mode.

    I think since Fazbear Entertainment used vintage plates for VR and AR, Mimic1 read it and thanks to that and William's Remnant connection, he got William's memories and starting to copy his personality, desires and the same time trying to re-create some of Afton's memories, like his family. Conclusion: i think Glitchtrap is Mimic1 but with William's soul together (i don't think this shithole died forever, since neither his Frights version died forever until Epilogue 7 where Afton Amalgamation came).

    I have a theory that maybe Edwin Burrows is the midnight motorist guy. Cause midnight motorist we drive a car and the yellow guy we play as is a drunk grieving father and outright there are animatronic footprints and even a grave by the house as well. So it kinda sounds familiar with Burrows, his son died in a car accident im the 80s and he built an endoskeleton called the mimic. So maybe the grave outside is hus son's grave and the animatronic footprints are the mimic's. This is just what I think

    Regarding the lose threads mentioned at 8:49, while I definitely don't have any real idea behind the room, as unsatisfying as it may sound, wouldn't you be able to explain Freddy's "immunity" to the virus being that the one thing we see from his prospective is him booting up in safe mode? At least for me that would explain why in that final boss Freddy can still be hacked or overcome by whatever Burntrap is doing to him. Since, whatever Security that Fazbear Entertainment would be giving these robots would be trying to stop it before getting Breached. Though, I'll fully recognize that this has no effect on the "I am not me" statement as far as I can tell.

I mainly just want to bring it up because if he was actively effected by the virus in the books, but still possessed at that time, then I don't know if the spirit (at least by itself) would be the thing stopping it. If anything, I'd be okay with the spirit not being able stop it outright like in the final battle, but safe mode at the very least gives the spirit the chance to regain control, I guess?

    ok I see it being brought up a lot and whilst I understand WHY people can come to this conclusion I do not believe the mimic is a retcon, I'm aware people find the claim that the books have been planned since 2019 highly dubious and I have no proof of it myself but it just makes sense to me that said whilst I enjoy the mimic as a concept I feel it's execution has been kinda wonky the games hard focus on the afton aspect of its character, which I suppose was meant to make the "twist" that it isn't actually afton more shocking, but I don't think scott realized that just because you can't feasibly see a twist coming doesn't inherently mean it's a good twist and I think HW bears the blame for this the most, the game gave no inclination that glitchtrap was anyone else BUT william, the mobile port further solidified this it doesn't help that aside from the mimic endo having rabbit ears (that I don't believe have been mentioned outside of the first epilogue), tales as a whole has barely focused on the mimic aspect of its character, so there's a pretty large disconnect between the two mediums which I felt could have easily been avoided if more thought had been put into making the character more unified

    One theory i like from the fnaf reddit that explains freddy is that when he reboots after the SB opening he is in Safe mode. This is a mode in which a system boots with only the necessary programs active meaning that Freddy does have glitchtrap virus but the parts of his system that are infected just aren't running. This could also explain why burntrap has to "reinfect" Freddy during his boss fight. He's taking over the rest of Freddy that makes up his safe mode.

    Not a fan of this whole Burntrap and even Glitchtrap just being Mimic1. What is the point if it's not William? What was the point of Vanny if Glitchtrap isn't even William's subconscious? What's the point of Glitchtrap's true form in Princess Quest if it's not William? What is the point if Vanny isn't helping finish what William started and it's not even about rebuilding the Afton family in William's twisted way? I get everyone wanted William to stay dead, but isn't it established that Henry's plan utterly failed in Fazbear Frights? The whole thing feels like one giant fuck you to the fandom. Just keep things SIMPLE. Fazbear Entertainment was cutting costs and scanning the circuit boards of Scraptrap and the remains of the animatronics from FFPS and that's how Glitchtrap was made.(or you know fully intended to create Glitchtrap because someone in Fazbear wanted William to return) Glitchtrap wants a follower that will help make him whole and help him fulfill his plans. Which is restore his family in his twisted image. Glitchtrap wants full control of the Pizzaplex, Vanny is completing his instructions, retrieving his body and uses Glamrock Bonnie's remains to repair his suit and Burntrap wants to kill Gregory for his remnant.(and mostly because he escaped from his grasp) That's what I thought the story was going, going in a complete contradictory direction was honestly a slap in the face. Not everything needs to be overly complicated, Scott

The story beats even riding the same tones as Afton's. Traumatic event -causes anger and fury Starts killing, with the subject hiding in suits while doing so Manipulating the animatronics to advance there goals (fine to do again but it's just add to the point) And there story has them getting trapped inside a room until a witless helper retrieves them It would have been so cool if it just confined to the cyberworld, slowly taking over the minds of others like it did vannie (seemingly) but no, it's literally just robot Afton
