Matt

**Matt** is the main protagonist of the *In the Flesh* story of *Fazbear Frights: Bunny Call*. He is one of the game developers who works on the development of the *Springtrap’s Revenge* game.

## Personality

Matt is a generally arrogant person. He constantly thinks of himself as being better than other people, and treats the people around him with no respect.

## History

Matt got a job on creating the AI in *Springtrap’s Revenge*, a new virtual reality game that is the next installment of the *Five Nights at Freddy’s* series. In the two times he play-tested the game, Springtrap has always killed him. His co-worker, Jamie, entered and asked if everything was okay and if he needed help. Matt acted rudely and told her to leave. He tries to play-test it again only to get killed once again by Springtrap. He then angrily changes the code to punish Springtrap by leaving him alone in the maze for the rest of the night. Matt then arrives at his apartment, greeted by his college friend Jason, who lives with him, and decide to watch a movie together.

The next day, he gets back to work and went to check on Springtrap. Matt noticed that he hasn't encountered Springtrap for a long time, and that there was no sign of him. After checking the game's data log, it seemed that Springtrap spawned in new versions of himself, and the newer versions killed the old ones. As a result, his programming was corrupted. Matt went into the game to see Springtrap and saw his lifeless body lay on the ground. As soon as Matt comes into physical contact with Springtrap, he felt a sharp sting. Matt later goes on a date with a girl named Eva. Jason's date, Meghan, promised him that her roommate would be perfect for Matt. It ends with him leaving the building angry by disappointment.

In the next few days, Matt starts feeling a pain in his stomach. He tries to ignore it by drinking coffee and taking pills, but the pain increases. Then, he starts to feel a ravenous hunger and starts eating a lot. He now has a bloated stomach and constantly feels the urge to vomit. He no longer fits in his old clothes and must wear baggier clothes.

During one of those days, Gary, head of the department, checks on him and tells him that the deadline for the games is looming. Matt nervously tells him that everything is doing great. He later goes on another date with a girl named Madison. It ended with Madison leaving due to her cat now being sick after receiving a text from her roommate.

The next day, he's in a conference with Jamie and Gary. Gary then shows the reviews from the early screening copies of the game, and the results are mixed. Matt gets angry and says that he tries to do his best work and yells other angry thoughts. Jamie tries to calm him down but Matt jerks away and leaves. As he arrives home, he sees Jason packing up his things. Jason then has a conversation with him, mostly telling him to stop being a jerk, then leaves.

On the next day, Matt struggles to put one of his pants, he then remembers that he had a date with a girl named Emma. Later, as Emma talks about her life, Matt noticed that something was happening in his abdomen. He felt some sort of pressure building in an unpleasant way, like a force was pushing his belly from the inside. Emma notices and asks Matt if he's okay. Matt calls off the date and tells her that she isn't his type in a mean way. As Emma defends herself, Matt realized that his bloated belly had caused all the buttons of his shirt to pop off and was now exposed to the general public to see. He fled out of that area and goes home. As he arrives home, he finds a face imprint on his belly. He then grabs a kitchen knife and cuts open his chest. He felt pain, but also felt relief. A tiny realistic Springtrap emerged from his belly. Springtrap pulls himself out of the incision and stood over Matt’s bleeding body. Springtrap then stroked Matt’s cheek and says, *Daddy*. Matt dies from blood loss.
