Slashjay

### I Don’t Know What to Title This Section but a More Detailed Plot Explanation

/j mostly follows Gregory as he falls down the hellish rabbit hole that is Fazbear Entertainment™, gets involved in paranormal bullshit, becomes besties with dead people, and generally fucks around with things he shouldn't, all in his quest to uncover the secrets of The Pizzaplex and the horrors and tragedies of Fazbear Entertainment. (and acquiring ungodly amounts of trauma in the process lol)

Slight spoilers but also not really since we're pretty open about it... but one of the big plot points is that Michael is possessing Glamrock Freddy, and later, he gets a little respawn, mysteriously showing up at the Pizzaplex— alive and not a corpse. Well... mostly.

In the end, Slashjay is mainly The Team's ~~(but mostly Mike let's be honest)~~ silly self-indulgent brainrot. It has plotholes and blemishes, some stuff isn't really explained, and it's nowhere near perfect. But, in the end it's just meant to be a fun story with lots of character analyses, found family dynamics, humor, and most importantly: ANGST!!

## What to Expect

/j is probably going to be pretty long. As of now, the entire story isn't mapped out and we don't know how long it will be. We have some plot points that we know we want to happen, and a rough idea of how things are going to end. The comic will take place over the span of multiple (in-universe) years. It (very roughly) follows a hero's journey loop, balancing periods of a slice-of-life status quo with various arcs and changes to it.

The comic is sectioned off into volumes— which are sometimes split into parts (usually being 2-3)— with a short prologue before each one. Volumes tend to follow a specific theme/story arc. The first volume, *Down the Rabbit Hole*, focuses on exposition, world-building, and, well, Gregory (and Vanessa) falling down the rabbit hole, the second, *AAA*, (spoiler alert) is where Michael finally makes his dramatic ass respawn, you get the gist.

## When Is /J Coming Out? (/Schedule and Where It’s Being Posted)

ight fuck this I'm just going to use singular pronouns here because let's be honest it's me typing this up right now and if I keep typing "we" and shit I am actually gonna kms.

The comic will be coming out when it comes out. Currently, I'm starting on the actual pages as well as wrapping up character references and concept art. Once I get closer to finishing the prologue I'll be releasing an introduction video (which is currently a WIP) on the comic's Twitter and TikTok. I've never made a comic and I have no fucking clue what I'm doing, so I've been working on getting the template down, making art style decisions, and overall practicing. My hope is that I'll get faster at creating pages before the comic comes out. Once the prologue is finished and I'm ready I'll be posting the entire prologue all at the same time (or in the span of 1-2 days) to give people something to latch onto.

The comic will be posted to Twitter and *maybe* to a Tumblr if people express interest in it being posted there. I'm aiming to keep a stockpile of completed pages so that way I won't feel rushed to finish things if I don't have time. I'm in high school still and have a part-time job so I'm not always free to dedicate my life to FNaF unfortunately. The goal is to update once every weekend/early in the week (at least in the beginning), usually posting 4 pages. Hopefully once I've gained some experience, summer hits, and maybe if I get a few more artists working on the comic updates will become more frequent.

## The wiki

(Once again I am using singular pronouns because I will drive myself insane otherwise.) People who have kept up with the comic for a LONG ASS FUCKING TIME may remember the old Carrd! I used this to link all of the socials, explain the comic, and post information about the characters. I have a hard time keeping track of information, character details, etc, with most of the methods I've tried over the years. The Carrd became a two-birds-with-one-stone where I could keep track while also giving people somewhere to read about the characters, timeline, etc, and expand on my interpretation of the lore (introducing characters specific to pre-Slashjay that may or may not be introduced, giving backstory content, etc). My graphic design is my passion dumbass put a fuckton of effort into this Carrd (like, a lot) before realizing it was a painful ass way to keep track of everything and share details. So that's what this wiki became!

Uh TL;DR the wiki is used to help me personally keep track of characters, share character/story details, elaborate on my version of the timeline/FNaF's events, as well as share pre-Slashjay content (backstories, entire characters, etc), give information about the team and development, and is overall an easier and cleaner way to explain the comic and things surrounding it.

## The Timeline

In January/Early February, Mike's dumbass started rewriting the FNaF timeline because of how ass it is so he could use his own stupid ass timeline for all of his brainrot. Slashjay also follows this timeline bc it is fucking superior and Mike will not rest until he has converted all the fnafers to his timeline.

Basically all of the events in FNaF still happen, but have been given specific dates and such and important events have been shifted around. Most notably, the bite of '83 is now the bite of '87 (the bite of '87 still occurs... Just in 1991 ;p), and multiple games taking place much earlier

Seriously.

If sister location takes place in 2018, you cannot tell me Michael made it to like... 2023. And peepaw made it to literally anywhere between 2025-2050something because jesus FUCKING christ. THEY ARE OLD NASTY CORPSES !! I give Mike tWO FUCKIN YEARS AT MOST—

Ahem— Apologies for that break in character there...

Elizabeth gets the clawclaw late 1986, FNaF 4 takes place in 1987, FNaF 2 takes place in 1991, FNaF 1 takes place in 1995, Peepaw gets owned by dead kids in 1998, FNaF: SL and FNaF 3 in 2001, and Pizza Sim in 2002! Currently we're just saying /j takes place in 2018, but to be honest, Security Breach (at least in /j) doesn't stick to a specific year. We didn't want to tie it to a year in particular so we could basically do whatever the fuck we want, but it takes place 2018 or after, and mmmosotly probably before 2020/2021? Kinda? But not being able to state the year was starting to make some stuff difficult.

The 'other part' of the timeline is basically fleshing out characters, naming unnamed characters, adding background and supporting characters where they're needed, etc. You can find most of the bullshit that isn't referenced in the comic on this very wiki! Epic yeah bro! Anyways uhhh... Lucy supremacy ok byyyyeeee
