  people genuinly seem to put so much responsibility on the puppet for no reason. she's a kid. a child. a baby. she was literally single digit age when she died. and people expect her to be some mastermind who can anticipate everything and move the world around like a chess board.

  Ah, the classic &quot;You didn&apos;t solve all the problems yourself? &nbsp;How selfish!&quot;.<br><br>I do have to wonder what would have happened if Puppet Charlie <i>had</i> gone to the police. &nbsp;The Puppet just snapping all its strings, grabbing a pen, and writing out a statement.<br>&quot;No. no, that&apos;s all part of the performance, officer. &nbsp;We&apos;re, uh... &nbsp;putting on a mystery play?&quot;

  <b>&quot;I don&apos;t hate you, but you need to stay out of my way&quot;,</b> feels like it perfectly sums up game Puppet&apos;s awareness. She fully recognizes Afton, but has enough maturity to have goal prioritization: Making Afton suffer, means less time to help her fellow victims. She&apos;s no saint, obviously, but game Puppet is more determined to help others. Likewise, she just generally doesn&apos;t like the guards, with or without them being Micheal: As you bring up, the animatronics are already treated badly, and if they are Micheal, she&apos;s obviously gonna see red, being he looks like the man responsible for everyone&apos;s misery.<br><br>Game Puppet, push comes to shove? She&apos;s a child, accustomed to her fate, trying her best to help fellow victims... But is ultimately only a slight step up from the other confused children, or enraged machines.

  I&apos;ve always liked the Puppet/Charlie, but I think your videos (specifically your in-character guides) were what helped her become a comfort character for me.<br><br>They are a sisterly/motherly figure who wants to help and save people, but doesn&apos;t realize it&apos;s doing more harm than good in the long run. She is not selfish, she is a sweetheart who wants the best for her friends.<br><br>I believe Freddy Fazbear himself once said, &quot;You did your best, and that&apos;s all that counts.&quot;

  If the story about the woman and the five keys really is about Charlie and MCI, then it really is interesting to think that she could have genuinely saved one of them, but didn’t because she understandably wanted to save them all, and chose to instead have them possess the animatronics. Which does makes sense because it worked for her, so she probably thought that if possession worked for her then it would work for them.

  The fandom hates Gregory for defending himself against killer animatronics I shouldn&apos;t even be surprised they hate on the Puppet too😭

  If the puppet has one defender, it will be Nottie, and if the puppet has no defender, Nottie is dead :D
