**Steven Stevenson** is a Phone Guy and manager of the Freddy Fazbender's Colorado joint, appearing as a major character and the secondary antagonist of Dayshift at Freddy's, the first game in the *Dayshift at Freddy's* trilogy.

Out of all Phone Guys, he is the only one that opposes Jack regardless of the route. He serves as the secondary antagonist of most endings, specifically the ones where Dave Miller serves as the primary antagonist, aside from the Crafty Ending, where he is the anti-heroic deuteragonist. However, if Jack chooses to side with Dave, he becomes the main antagonist instead.

## Information

Steven is overall the secondary antagonist in "*Dayshift at Freddy's*", He is also a playable character but only during a night minigame. He is along with Jack, Dave, Dee, Peter and Blackjack one of the 6 playable characters in Dayshift at Freddy's 3 and also one of the 5 bosses (Along with Jacob, Dave, Dee and Henry) in the same game. He is Jack's employer and is responsible for monitoring his activity around 'Freddy Fazbender's Pepperonerie, and also framing him for the 5 murders.

Steven is a man with a red rotary phone as a head. He is mainly called Phone Guy, a nod to the name given to the man that does the phone calls in Five Night's at Freddy's.

Steven is the boss in the joint, as he observes and watches Jack's every move and he has the ability to fire him or warn him if he does some sort of insubordinate behavior, such as choosing inappropriate drawings to put on the walls, peeing on slides, telling jokes about him to children, or dying in public.

Other than that, Steven is forced to be here against his will, like Jack and Dave.

## Appearance

Steven is a male human with a red rotary phone as a head and usually wears light blue, short-sleeved shirts or a black suit with a red or black tie. You can't see him from the waist down, though his sprites depict him wearing black pants and dark shoes.

## Personality

Before his change into Phone Guy, Steven seemed to be an intelligent, courageous man with a moral backbone (which also caused his downfall). He seemed insistent to stop Henry after witnessing him brutally murder a child.

In Dayshift at Freddy's: Remastered, he is the boss of Freddy's location in Colorado and for most of his presence in the series the role of the main character's supervisor.

Steven seems to be very attached to the company - he cares about its interests and conceals exploding scandals. When the police start investigating murders in the Wednesday night minigame, he closes the Safe Room with bloody springy clothes to save Freddy's. In addition, Steven runs short conversations with Jack every day, probably to check his new subordinate. He does not hesitate to warn his employee when something is wrong or even throwing him away if he did something extremely reprehensible.

Such an attitude may be due to fear of losing a job, but Steven seems to be particularly committed to fulfilling his tasks.

He avoids using vulgar language (which makes him stand out from other characters, in particular, Dave). However, this is a matter of programming, as he seemed to have nothing against swearing before he was turned into Phone Guy.

Employees perceive Steven as an unpleasant man who cares only for himself - an unflattering opinion about him. Peter, who was once Steven's subordinate, views him in a very bad light.

Despite his commitment to Freddy's, Steven appears in many cases as a coward. He fears facing the consequences of his actions. After the failure of the springlocks, he sends Peter's body to the factory, instead of providing him with a dignified burial - he lets him be converted into a Phone Guy, so long as he does not suffer any consequences, such as bad press.

Steven's attitude changes slightly in Dayshift at Freddy's 3. Jack encounters his soul in the 3rd layer of Flipside, if he decided to follow a good path. Initially, Steven thinks the heroes have come to take revenge on him and sends his army of Foxy's behind them. However, when he is cornered, he stands up, ready to fight.

When Jack explains to him that he has come to save him, Steven initially rejects his proposal - he explains that he can not be saved, and then stubbornly insists that his soul is not worth trying to save at all. He later confesses that he is tired of the fight and feels awful about his past actions. He asks Jack, Dave, and Dee for forgiveness. He is ready to do anything to redeem himself. Ultimately, the heroes convince him and - despite some hesitation - Steven joins the team.

Steven seems to be delusional, as he sees *himself* as the original Phone Guy, and he's insistent that he is Scott Cawthon, as he states before his battle, *"I am Scott Cawthon, your manager. And you, employee, are FIRED"*.

He seems to have an unhealthy obsession with Foxy, but it is a matter of a joke related to this robot. Destroying Foxy will cause the Tragic Ending in DSaF. It is worth noting that in DSaF 3, Steven's helpers are these robots. This issue, however, also results from his programming: the favorite robot of the original Scott Cawthon was Foxy.

## Relationships

### Jack Kennedy

*Main article: Jack Kennedy*
The relation between Steven and Jack seems to be a purely boss-employee relationship. The hero is surprised by such a long experience of Kennedy, but he does not treat him so much - he can give him notice at any moment if Jack behaves in the wrong way. When it comes to murders, Steven sees in his employee the option to "save Freddy's" - he decides to make a deal with the police and "frame" Kennedy (not looking at whether the hero is really guilty or not). If Jack was actually guilty of murder, he might be unflattering about Phone Guy (because of his collaboration with Dave).

His return to DSaF 3 changes his view of their relationship. Jack, already aware of Steven's offenses, comes to him with the option of reconciliation. He, however, feels guilty about everything that happened in the past; he does not believe in his redemption and he wants Jack to leave. It was not until Steven was forced to return to his death and speak with a human voice, that he agreed. After jointly defeating Henry, he thanks Jack for everything he did for him, and Kennedy states that Steven should rest.

### Dave Miller

*Main article: Dave Miller*
Steven seems to be extremely careful with Dave, probably bearing in mind the incident with the Grand Canyon.

Their relationship is complicated. Dave does not express himself well about Phone Guy: he considers him a despotic boss. Steven, compared to Purple Guy, wants Freddy's to survive as long as possible, so their goals do not intersect, which would normally make them their natural enemies. Steven, however, never loses his cold blood in the presence of Miller - he knows what he is capable of and observes him.

Steven, however, is going to settle even with a person like Dave when it comes to matters important to him - for example, the name of the company. In one of the paths he is able to collaborate with Miller to frame Kennedy in murder.

At Dayshift at Freddy's 3 Steven, however, regrets his actions and apologizes to both Dave and Jack. After asking Miller about the former boss, he replies that he was not so bad at first - he treated him like a man, not the essence of a lower sort.

### Peter Kennedy

*Main article: Peter Kennedy*
Peter is Steven's former employee. It turns out that Kennedy was complaining about his superior before he died.

Peter died as a result of a spring suit failure, and Steven, despite knowing what was going to happen, allowed his body to be sent back to the factory. As a result, Peter was converted to Phone Guy and lost his memory.

After many years, Steven begins to regret his actions; he believes that they stand in the way of possible redemption. It is Jack who restores Steven's hope that his soul can be saved and his deeds forgiven.

When he says goodbye, Peter states that his brother saved everyone, even those who did not necessarily deserve salvation - it was possible that he was referring to Steven, which would prove that he has not yet completely forgiven him for the harm done.

### Henry Miller

*Main article: Henry Miller*
Henry was the embodiment of everything bad in Steven's life. He was responsible for his brutal death, which he later described as "senseless" because it resulted from his and Dave's plan. This message hit him so much that he was eliminated from the fight almost immediately. It is almost certain, however, that Miller considered Steven an invalid person.

Steven, on the other hand, most likely honestly hated Henry - he was the first person who attacked him. After defeating Miller, Phone Guy is happy about his death and that he has disappeared from his life forever.

### Mike Jr.

*Main article: Mike Jr.*
Steven seems a little annoyed when he has to buy his son a new frontal lobe. He tries to make sure the bullies don't get to a robot, or an employee doesn't bite.

### Mikey/The Bullies

*Main article: Mikey*
*Main article: Bullies*
Steven as little-to-no interest in most of the bullies except for Mikey, as he is Scott's son. He usually gets angry when Mikey stuffs Mike Jr.'s head into an animatronic as Frontal Lobes seem to cost alot of money.

## The truth about Phone Guys

If you choose to help out Peter in DSAF 2, He will eventually reveal to you that, There are many more of him waiting in the location known as The Factory. He is not the same Phone Guy as Steven from the Colorado location, and he is, instead, a replacement from the factory to be the manager.
This can explain how he "forgets" about you at the start of the game. When on Operation Springtrap, He will explain to you how he can remember fragments of his previous life.
The existence of the factory is confirmed in DSaF 3 in Month 2, where you buy/steal a Phone Guy to help you run the establishment.

## **Trivia**

* His audio dialogue, from the "*uh*" sounds to the full spoken sentences, are taken straight from his phone calls in "Five Nights at Freddy's", "Five Nights at Freddy's 2", and "*Five Nights at Freddy's 3".*
* Steven often calls himself as "Scott Cawthon", the name of the author of the *Five Nights at Freddy's* franchise. This probably is just a joke to the fact Scott Cawthon himself was the voice actor for the original Phone Guy from the *FNaF* series.
* A picture of Steven's family contains a family picture of a woman in a dress, who also has a phone for a head, Mikey and Mike Jr.
* Steven doesn't seem to be disturbed that his oldest son keeps putting his youngest in Fredbear's mouth and costing him his frontal lobe, it is also seen that those two are his sons, which probably means that his desire to see his family for 15 years is a complete lie.
* If the player names himself *Phone Guy*, Steven will say"*Dat me >:|*", and the player will need to name themselves something else.
* He is Phone Guy 14\_02, which means Harry was his old manager, because Harry is model 14\_01, and making Peter 14\_03
* Prior to his death, he had a boyfriend.
	+ Steven is canonically gay.
* Steven was in his early 30s when he died in the 70s
