Delilah’s story is the saddest and most depressing of the series so far. To suffer all that she had suffered through in her life only to die in a vent where nobody will ever find her body after being driven the the brink by Ella is just so... sad.

Stanley’s story is just as depressing for me, however, I sort of have the ‘well it’s his own fault for ignoring medical intervention’ mindset...which I don’t like because it’s ultimately not his fault...not 100% and I hate blaming people for their own demise, even if it is basically their fault. His girlfriend dumps him for a guy whose ‘much better’ than him in every way. I figured out the ending at the very beginning but thought that they wouldn’t go THAT far. This is Fnaf, of course they would have the disappearing dolls climb down Stanley’s throat while he sleeps on the job. The only thing that I find unrealistic is Stanley’s constant refusal to visit the hospital since he starts coming down with some downright terrifying symptoms that even I wouldn’t ignore. But he drags himself to work each time, sealing his fate.

Devon’s story.. oh boy.... I HAD sympathy for Kelsey until the literal last page. But all my sympathy is on Mick and most of it was from the beginning. He’s going to hold onto the deaths of Devon [his best friend] and Kelsey [budding new friend] until he dies. I do see him blaming himself once he realizes Devon isn’t coming back or he might snap? I don’t know... Again... I hate blaming people for their own demise but Devon has shown himself to be very cruel, self-serving and selfish. He in part deserved getting bit by the freddy animatronic.. Did he deserve death? No. He’s a stupid fucking kid! Kids can be the worst and absolute MONSTERS to each other especially if they feel slighted.

And Devon’s obsession with getting Heather to like him made him do this. Especially given her words on ‘justice’ being getting revenge on someone who slighted you.

I’ve seen people claiming these books have no connection to the games but I believe they are connected but we simply do not have all the clue’s to connect it all because Cawthon wants it that way. But I do enjoy peoples theory’s trying to make sense of it all.
