HAPPY AMPHIBIA ANNIVERSARY :D (Season 2 Or 3 Spoilers?)

Yes thank youuu!! I see people all the time misremember the scene where he crashes as happening when he's touched by Blue, this isn't true! He crashes because he gets overwhelmed (feeling like he doesn't know what to do) when seeing Blue have a panic attack.

This isn't associated with him being touched either, but sometimes his vision will be filled with ERRORs. This either happens randomly or when he's reminded of his past unexpectedly.

^ When Swap!Pap tried to talk him out of fighting using his past friendships.

^ When Swap!Sans tried to use friendship against him.

There's a lot of other examples of the ERRORs filling his eyes but they're almost always associated with him remembering something he doesn't want to, or thinking about companionship.

Error Sans and his haphephobia.

More so, how people take his haphephobia and twist it WAY out of proportion. This will be a long post. Feel free to skip over this.

HAPHEPHOBIA ; What is it?

Haphephobia is fairly rare, and often triggered by things such as abuse / sexual abuse or because of unidentifiable reasons. Error's, as we can assume, is caused by his glitching and just a fear of sudden touch in general. (Keep that 'sudden' part in mind.) Haphephobia, as mentioned in the screenshot, is different to hypersensitivity. Haphephobia doesn't cause a person any pain, it causes emotional distress at the thought of being touched. This can vary from person to person- Everyone experiences phobias in different ways.

DOES ERROR HAVE HAPHEPHOBIA? ; Or is it a fandom headcanon?

Yes. Error canonically has haphephobia, as stated by LoverOfPiggies.

WHY IS IT RELEVANT? ; Can I just ignore it?

NO. You can't just ignore a serious phobia. It's a part of Error, you can't pick and choose when it comes to his character. I know, I know, "It gets in the way of my art!" "It gets in the way of my fics!", but you can WORK AROUND IT. Deal with it. BUT, as I'll get into, it doesn't completely ruin your fics that apparently NEEEEEEED Error to touch someone.

SO HOW CAN I 'REMOVE' IT? ; Is it just there forever? Do I have to use it?

Yes and no. Haphephobia is actually treatable, as is most EVERY phobia. It's silly to think otherwise. I've seen a couple of very sweet fics where Error (with proper support) learns to get over the phobia and become able to touch people with ease. This is the.. Uh, chaotic neutral route? Considering you are, in a sense, removing his haphephobia, but acknowledging it's there and it's life-altering in some cases. In art this is a lot harder, since you'd need tons and tons of comic pages to cover him learning to ease off the fear just to draw a piece of Classicerror or Retroglitch fanart.

HOW TO CORRECTLY PORTRAY ; Error's haphephobia.

This is only relevant to ERROR. Haphephobia differs from person to person, monster to monster :3

Can he touch people? ; ... Yes.

Error partaking in a handshake, from Season One of Ask Error by LoverOfPiggies !! :3 Some key points occur in the moments leading up to this scene and the scene itself. An ask or two before, an anon asked to hug Error. Error happily declines, because he "would mess it up". Not because he's terrified of being touched, because he's scared of messing it up. Pathetic wet cat behaviour. In the scene above, we see Error initiate and enjoy a handshake! In fact, for the next couple asks, he doesn't even take his hand away from "Paragon"- He simply holds their hand absently. UNTIL someone points out that their handshake has crossed over into hand-holding, and anons start "shipping" the two, THAT'S when Error becomes pissed and rips his hand away. So clearly, he's fine with touch to some extent, mostly when politely asked to be touched or initiating touch of his own will.

Now...

This is when the haphephobia comes into play. (Actually, this event happens before the shipping stuff, as seen from Error still holding "Paragon"s hand.)

The anon hugs Error WITHOUT warning, WITHOUT consent, at random. THIS is what sets Error's haphophobia off, THIS is what makes him really pissed. As seen, Error starts shaking and the errors around his body become more erratic. His eyesockets go blank, he freezes, he goes into "freeze mode" before going straight to "fight mode".

So, from this we can gather, Error can initiate touch and doesn't mind consentual touch at most times.

He does have moments where he isn't fine with touch, which is okay! I'm the same, with my autism and sensory issues! He's valid in not wanting to be touched, and as long as he expresses discomfort and fellow monsters are undertanding, everything's fine.

Error's haphephobia does not flare up from the smallest handshake or a side hug. He can touch other monsters, he just doesn't want to sometimes! And people touching him out of the blue, he isn't fine with that, which makes sense!! Who does want random contact out of NO WHERE? No one !! (I don't think..)

MISCONCEPTIONS ;

Error lags when he's touched! ; Actually, Error is never shown to 'lag'. It's a fun headcanon, though! ^_^

Error bluescreens ; This is just another headcanon, which is fun to fiddle with, but not canon!

Error can crash and reboot like an old computer ; Yes, actually! In Season Two of Ask Error, he does reboot after a considerable amount of stress (?).

Anyways, thanks for listening to the yapper! Uh, feel free to correct me on anything if I got somethings wrong!! ^_^ Love you all!! Mwah mwah mwah!!/p

hi hello yes

i play pony.town

and i was like gAK dANGIT THERES NO PROPELLER HAt

so i made

a propeller for my pony’s hat

and this is how you can do it too :D

Fresh if he was in Gloomverse. You know I’m right

I know it might be a little late to ask ( I just noticed you allowed questions again), but since Fresh was in Gloomverse would it be possilble for him to get a hat or have magic? If so, what kind/type of magic would he have? ( I know it probably wasn't cannon but I'm just really curious).

If Fresh was in Gloomverse, he’d have really stupid improbable 90s magic, summoning freaking pogs and furbies and skip its and all that nonsenseIt would be really dumb

Interesting parallel I noticed between the Help Wanted tapes and Retro CDs

Hey! I noticed this recently and wanted to point it out, somebody else probably has before but... whatevs!

In tape 9, Tape Girl points out something that looked like a halloween mask, and mentions ink multiple times... I know some people theorize the ink as blood and the mask as a face, and I'm in the same boat on the face sliced theory, but I do actually think this was a halloween mask because of the halloween update following it and Vanny's mask being the most lore-important collectable within.

Anyway, on to the similarity:

The final therapist asks Patient 46 (who the books pretty much confirmed as being Gregory) about an INKblot test, and 46 calls it a MASK, not just looking at it but holding it in his hands... he doesn't speak in the recording, so maybe he held it up to his face to show his interpretation of it as a mask?

Anyways what I'm trying to say is... this association of ink and masks... Does this mean Patient 46 was aware of what Tape Girl said about Jeremy? How? Did he play the fazbear virtual experience or something? I don't know but it's interesting to think about.

Also something else I noticed while wrriting this:

It's impossible to tell if it's the same inkblot 46 saw as a mask, and all of Vanessa's answers express some sortve desire to be outside in nature and escape whatever's going on with her (evil digital bunny manipulation)... Patient 46 expresses many opposite desires, wanting to be in the dark and wanting to hide the truth, while Vanessa seems a lot more forced to... it's like this is just a funny game to Patient 46

Back from my tangent- one of the inkblots Vanessa looks at she calls a beetle, but the therapist sees it differently as a face. Could it be the same inkblot? Is this some elaborate joke about the "is it really a mask or really a face" debacle??? DOES ANY OF THIS CONNECT AT ALL OR AM I JUST GOING LORE-CRAZY!?

Uh I don't really have a conclusion to this, my brain just loosely connected these things like "Oh does Gregory know something about Jeremy??". Thanks for reading hgsvsgdcvgsd

Would you be interested in me making a separate FNAF blog and postin Fresh stuff here instead? Lemme know B')
