My Friendly Neighborhood (2023)
Y'know, I think horror based on things that are childish and cutesy is great. Like, taking something that's supposed to be friendly and spreading happiness and twisting it to be horrible and bad is so cool.
Five Nights at Freddy's? Took a wonderland with goofy friendly talking animals and made them possessed and murderous.
Bendy and the Ink Machine? I know nothing about it but they have those funky lil ink mascots which look pretty friendly but They're Not.
Poppy Playtime? I don't know much about it, but they turned that big tall cute blue boi and turned him into some sort of killer defense system. Killer toys.
Then there's a newer one, My Friendly Neighborhood? Took muppets and made them murderous.
My favorite kind of horror. I love it. Give me more.
More wacky puppets? Count me in!
Been excited for the full release of the game, had fun playing it!
These are one of Norman’s dialogues in the game, and he sounds like he’s about to have a mental breakdown at any second.
(Loved doing the movement and expressions of Norman ❤️)
Wally is internally freaking out about the unfriendly neighbors, he got no eyes to stare at, while Poppy and Pearl are being best bird besties! ✨
HAPPY BIRTHDAY + ANNIVERSARY MFN!!
Small extras here vvvv
No dark around the edges + release date
I’m still here, just dont know what to draw with these puppets.
Just a Shelly doodle since i barely draw her nowadays for now
Got bored, found this, and decided to do this
Throws a bug, then another bug, then there’s a bug infestation in your house.
An au???
Shows up*
MFN INFECTION AU!?!?!?
Only two small doodle tests of George and Lilianna
And a Lilianna artwork
The lil’ puffy or whatever it was called again Lilianna on the top left is originally made by @viidori-sillygoat
I didn’t really like how the last post of viidoris’ MFN Oc went (( even thought it was a doodle- ))
SOOOO- i hope i did Shimmy some justice @viidori-sillygoat !!
Close up of her!! VVVVV
OMG OMG, YA DREW HER!!
You may not somehow see this Pel, but can you doodle Junebug from My Friendly Neighborhood? Just a curious neighbor about how she’ll look in your art! :33
Hope I did her justice!! Thank you for the req ofc💚
First post, MFN Oc? Uh- Yeah, here’s Shelly.
Gah, i need to know how to get used to Tumblr
i was so surprised by the lack of AUs in the My Friendly Neighborhood fandom! So, me and a few discord buddies decided to create our own! The Opposite Au! (Or the OPP AU for short)
its basically a personality swap with a few story changes!
(click read more for bonus doodles + character descriptions!)
NORMAN
Norman is THE BEST character on 'My Friendly Neighborhood' and he WILL remind you constantly!
He has like a bajillion fans and friends that are definitely NOT made up! Of course he has fans and friends from all over the world what do you mean he doesn't???
He's a bit of a diva... ok "bit" is an understatement. He genuinely believes that he deserves to be treated better than anybody else! He proudly displays a star on his door as a symbol of his supposed stardom!
There's a blurry line between fiction and reality for Norman. He believes his on-screen friendship with Lenard translates to real life, despite their mutual mistreatment of each other. Lenard is definitely NOT Norman's friend. (In fact, most of the puppets in this AU despise each other)
Incredibly overdramatic. He once laid down on the floor for 3 hours straight because someone ate the last chocolate chip cookie.
Norman is still very lonely.
JUNEBUG
Much more calmer and introverted than her OG counterpart. She would rather stay inside reading books than play outside with her so-called 'friends'.
She is the resident bookworm of the neighborhood, incredibly smart too!
Her demeanor is highly apathetic; even if chaos erupted in the neighborhood, she wouldn't even lift her eyes from the pages of her book.
She also speaks in a very monotone voice.
She still very much hates responsibility.
She and Norman have a sort of pseudo rivalry with each other, even though it mostly affects Norman. While others react to Norman's antics, Junebug's indifference to it annoys him the most.
Even if she's not currently reading books, she's usually staring off into space or thinking about something. Ms. Lilianna is not fond of her due to her inattentiveness during one of her lessons.
Has a horrible habit of sneaking up to people and scaring them due to the fact that she walks VERY quietly.
MS. LILIANNA
It's MISS Lilianna. Not Lilianna, MISS Lilianna! She is your teacher and you WILL show her some respect!
Miss. Lilianna is incredibly strict and uptight. If you so much as even breathe loudly she will get furious with you!
She does genuinely love teaching! She teaches math, science, english, history... but her favorite lesson to teach are RULES!
Currently, she has 874 rules in her rule book. Here are some examples:
22. No talking while she's talking, that’s rude. 23. No chewing gum 24. no smiling 25. no breathing too loudly 26. no running 27. no jumping 28. no laughing 29. no living 30. no screaming 32. no playtime 33. no snack time 34. no lunchtime 35. definitely no nap time. 36. No blinking more than once per minute! 37. You must sit at a perfect 90 degree angle 38. No writing with anything other than a blue ballpoint pen with a 0.735 mm tip!
Her favorite rule is rule #17: "Everyday is Teacher's Day!" You must give Ms. Lilianna gifts and hugs to show how much you appreciate her!
The most important rule is the "No complaining about the rules" rule! Or else you'll be sent to the principals office! Which is her. She is the principal, the custodian, the janitor, every and any faculty member of the school!
...Except for the Art teacher. Please don't show her any art, she will not understand anything. She lacks any and every sort of creativity.
Her favorite weapon to use is the classic ruler! Light weight AND teacher-y
Baldi's basics lookin' ass
LENARD
Anxious Dog Energy right there.
Poor Lenard is very shy and super self conscious. Like Junebug, he would rather stay alone than be anywhere NEAR people.
He has a bit of a stutter.
He is so anxious, that he's developed several self-defense mechanisms!
He will either SCREAM BLOODY MURDER
Or he will bite you
Or a combination of both.
Sometimes he'll bite for no reason whatsoever!
Lenard is TERRIFIED of being watched, especially while practicing. Memories of him being taunted and teased during the show's production still haunt him.
He's developed severe scopophobia because of this.
He will usually sing and dance in private. Though, he's not a very good singer nor a very good dancer.
GEORGE
The epitome of "I hate my job."
This George really hates being a taxi driver. I mean, wouldn't you hate being stuck as a taxi driver for the rest of your life?
After MFN got cancelled and the puppets got abandoned, George ripped out the 'T' in his taxi cab hat. He tried ripping out more from his taxi uniform, but stopped since his uniform were the only clothes that he's got.
He's now stuck in exitensial dread. What IS George now that he's not a taxi driver? He might've hated being one, but that was all that he's got.
He hates any and all vehicles with 4 wheels or more. All the taxi cabs in the studio are smashed, even the wheels have been taken out!
He still likes rats. However, it's mostly a "appreciate from afar" type of ordeal. The rats in the studio are vicious little beasts.
He once saw a puppet get too close to the rats. Let's just say that the puppet is now a pile of cotton fluff.
The only time he was genuinely happy during the show's production was when they were filming the Pirate's Cove film. It was his first experience of being anything other than his taxi driver role. He still has his pirates hook and he would fight you tooth and nail if you try and steal it from him
AND THATS EVERYONE (for part 1 ofc)
Thank you to my friends who definitely helped with this AU (you know who you are!)
Oh! And please click the images for better quaity!
