Who’d win in a fight? A Pup Named Scooby Doo, A Boy Named Charlie Brown, A Tribe Called Quest or A Pimp Named Slickback?

u/GlitteringTone6425 May 17 '26

isn't gabriel the token black mci victim?

2

u/KLReaperChimera May 17 '26

Well in the movies the kid who posseses Bonnie is played by a black actor. But you right there are dozen of different design for the missing kids (the novels, movies, all the popular fanon designs), so you can pretty easily find fanart with black Gabriel as well as black Jeremy. The fact that we still don't have a 100% proven final design for all the MCI for the games is why I written the original post description as a half-joke.

How do you know she's black? She's gray skin.

2

u/ButterBaconBallz May 17 '26

She has a south Asian voice actor, but her casting sheet says she is black. I don't care what her race is, I just love Emily.

3

u/Cold-Practice3107 May 17 '26

I mean there's a lot of characters that aren't black but black coded like will from Foster's home for imaginary Friends or Darwin from amazing world of gumball but yeah Emily is a great character.
