fangle

Fangle refers to a portmanteau of the words "Foxy" and "mangle," originating from the video game series Five Nights at Freddy's. In the game's lore, Mangle is an animatronic character that has been taken apart and reassembled in a dismembered state. Fangle is a fan-created pairing or ship that imagines a romantic or close relationship between Mangle and another character named Foxy. Foxy is also an animatronic pirate fox from the same game series. The pairing is popular within the game's fanbase and is often depicted in fan art, fan fiction, and other forms of creative expression. The appeal of this ship stems from the shared characteristics of the two characters, such as their fox-like appearance and their often chaotic or broken nature within the game's narrative. It is important to note that Fangle is a fan-made concept and is not an officially recognized relationship within the Five Nights at Freddy's storyline created by Scott Cawthon. The interpretation and popularity of Fangle vary among fans, with some embracing it as a beloved ship and others not engaging with it.
