I LOVE DOODLING ON MAGMA!!

Also thought it might be fun to revamp/redesign my genderswaped Boris and Fanny design :]

Close ups btw :D

Also, yes, it is canon that Willy legitimately enjoys bad music if there was a radio station for it, he would put it on all the time he’s complementing her basically…he also not the brightest ^^;

Balto's unnamed siblings

Although I many times covered the most morbid element of the sequel (also small addition here), I want to pay attention to the aspect most likely nobody ever noticed. The question is simple — does Balto have any siblings? Like, in the sequel's canon, his mother is the white wolf goddess, while his father is an unknown stray mongrel, who mates and then never even knows about possible pups. Since Balto's stray dog father was described by the writer as "He's like a human father, who begets a child and then never even knows it", there's a huge possibility that this stray mongrel impregnated many stray and even domestic female dogs, so Balto most likely has lots of half-siblings, who are pure dogs. While his father is unaware that he had pup with a wolf. A wolf deity...

The sequel states pretty clearly that Balto was the only pup the litter, he has no wolfdog siblings, he was the only half-breed pup Aniu had with this random stray dog. Yes, you can agrue that Balto said "My dad was a husky, who... had pups with a wolf", but this "had pups with" is just a soften and more family-friendly version of "impregnated/begat/mated with". It doesn't confirm that Balto had siblings, because later Balto never mentions his brothers and sisters, he mentions only his wolf mother, i.e. he never had a father and lived only with his mother, there's no siblings, no grandparents, no wolf pack. Plus, if Balto had wolfdog siblings, Aniu could easily ignore Balto and Aleu and make either Balto's brother/sister or already their pup, not Balto's, to be the chosen one from the prophecy (even Nava firstly would discover exactly them, not Balto and/or Aleu as the ones who fit to the prophecy). So, yes, Balto was the only Aniu's pup.

Or not? Well, Balto was the only wolfdog pup Aniu gave birth to. According to the writer of the sequel, in the long past Aniu was a regular grey wolf (i.e. she looked like Balto in the sequel, except of the eye shape and darker ears — big eyes and darker ears Balto inherited from a dog for sure), she had pups and a pack and loved them. That means, as a mortal wolf she had a wolf mate. And only after her death Aniu became the white wolf goddess and a part of the Great Spirit, mated with the random stray dog, gave birth to Balto (as a half-spirit in fact) and raised him alone until he accidentally got lost and was adopted by Boris. Simply saying, Balto also had half-siblings, who are pure wolves.

Yep, Balto is the only half-breed, while his siblings are pure wolves and pure dogs...

At least, he is the only half-spirit. What the irony...

-/ batim oc /-

Name: Bonnie “Bella” Clarke

Age: Thirty-Four

Pronouns: She/Her

Gender(optional): Trans Female

Species: Formerly Human. Now transformed into an Ink Humanoid

Job/Role in the studio: Voice Actress for “Bella”

Likes: Watching artists draw and the animation process, Jazz/Swing Music, Socializing with others, The “Boris the Wolf” character, Poetry, Reading Thriller Novels, Tap-Dancing

Dislikes: Mistakes of any kind (heavily judges her self-worth and integrity), Flaws and Failure, Messy Food, Closed/Narrow Areas, Sammy Lawrence, Susie Campbell, Sitting Within the Quiet

Relationships: TBA (Open for any kind of connections/relationships)

Backstory: (More or less a very simplified version)

- To perform as an antagonist, artists eventually created concepts and the final product of their most mischievous character: Batty Bella. The one to cause most antics that are meant to tempt the demon to continue his devilish activities. A contrast to Alice Angel; one that is there to “throw a wrench into his schemes”. The little devil on one shoulder as the angel stands on another.

- Bonnie was assigned the role after being hired through a friend of the company. Despite the major risks that came for being “different”, through tons of back-and-forths, Bonnie secured the role once she “fit the description”. While there weren’t the best intentions made in mind when assigning her Batty Bella. Nonetheless, she was ecstatic to be able to voice act within a toon that would be watched by many.

- However, in one moment- she could recall her vocal chords straining and vibrating to hit certain high notes of a particular song. And in the next, she would feel something impale her stomach. There are numerous blotches within her memories, unable to recall the moment before or during the ink machine debacle. But, nonetheless, the ink machine recreated the woman into something that felt more comfortable than her own skin. Even if her new form is not ideal for outsiders.

Extra Info:

- Voice Claim is Belle Baker (Song - If I Had a Talking Picture of You (1929)

- Feels as though the character was made for her in some instances when reading the synopsis of Batty Bella. Bonnie always had interest in ballerinas and other hobbies/activities considered feminine.

- Always feels at least suspicious or wary of other angels due to a part of her sensing (or assuming) one of them stabbed her.

- Ring and pinky fingers are melted together.

Are you still taking ask's?

Thank you anon for sending this and for the remainder of the month of October YES 😆

So here's an update on what the crew looks like 🤔, I decided to give them my own twist on their OG and Studio designs 😗

From left to right it's Snow, Bendy, Boris, Cup, Mugs, Cala-Maria and lastly Alice

Bendy has a more humanoid-demon look and Boris has a more wolf boy look. For Cup and Mugs they're basically haunted porcelain ball-jointed dolls (I got the idea from the game 😁) Cala is a mermaid . . . no surprise there and Alice is a half fallen angel via my interpretation.

Snow also went through a design change and is also male now, you see he was always supposed to be male but because I could never grasp on how to draw male figures I just drew him as a female but I guess that doesn't matter since he is a shape shifter after all hope y'all can accept him 🥺

To start off this month long come back here's this

I usually do UnknownSpy's dressuptober challenge on insta but I'm gonna do it here as well I know we're 5 days into the month but please forgive me I've got a full time job now and can't be here as often so let's see how this goes who knows maybe I might start doing some art streams someday 😁

Also sorry all current asks in my box will be deleted 😔 as to make room for the new ones 😉

BATIM/BATDR x Female Reader

Ink Demon x Female Reader

——————————————————

Title: Who Broke It?

——————————————————

Audrey, Sammy, Henry, Alice, Boris and the Ink Demon are standing around a table.

Alice Angel: why is that thing here?

Alice gestures to the Ink Demon.

Audrey Drew: Y/N gathered us all here because she wanted to talk to us

Y/N then places a broken coffee machine on the table.

Y/N: okay, so who broke it?

Everyone stays silent.

Y/N: I’m not mad, I just want to know who broke it

Audrey Drew: I did, I broke it

Y/N: no, no, you didn’t

Y/N then looks at Sammy.

Y/N: Sammy?

Sammy Lawrence: don’t look at me, look at Henry

Henry Stein: what? I didn’t break it

Sammy Lawrence: huh, that’s weird....how did you even know it was broken?

Henry Stein: because it’s sitting right in front of us and it’s broken

Sammy Lawrence: suspicious....

Henry Stein: no, it’s not

Boris then speaks up.

Boris The Wolf: if it matters, probably not but Alice was the last one to use it

Alice Angel: liar! I don’t even drink that crap!

Boris The Wolf: oh really? then what were you doing by the coffee machine earlier?

Alice Angel: I use the wooden sticks to push back my cuticles, everyone knows that!

Audrey Drew: okay, okay, let’s not fight....I broke it so let me replace it Y/N

Y/N: nope, who broke it?

Henry Stein: well....the Ink Demon has been awfully quiet

Ink Demon: Oh ReAlLy!?

Chaos then erupts between the group while Y/N steps outside of the room.

Y/N: I broke it....it burnt my hand so I punched it

She thinks to herself briefly.

Y/N: I predict in 10 seconds that they’ll all be at each other’s throats....and I don’t like coffee

——————10 Seconds Later——————

The Ink Demon growls as he chases after Henry, Boris is hiding under the table and Alice has a tommy gun.

Sammy Lawrence: yes! my lord!

Sammy is on his knees praying to the Ink Demon.

Audrey Drew: Y/N! come get your husband! he’s about to rip Henry to shreds!

[vintage-dollys]

Does anyone else have human BATIM ocs? I have 4, who are supposed to be the friends of Audrey Drew.

Their time period is the 70s, as that’s when people have guessed when Audrey was from.

Here are their names!

-Suzanna Hackenbush or Suzy for short (she is the daughter of Dot)

-Paul. Just Paul.

-Sharlene, or Shar or Charlie for short

-Samantha, or Tammy for short.

Paul, Tammy, and Shar have no connection to the studio at all. Suzy and Audrey are the only ones. Suzy just knows about it and has never been there.

The 4 friends first encounter the studio after realizing Audrey has gone missing. Suzanna becomes posessed by the ink and becomes a female Boris clone.

The other 3 friends escape, leaving behind years of trauma.

Audrey and Suzy come in contact with each other once, but Suzy can’t say anything bc being a wolf makes her unable to speak.

What I think about Bendy: Campus Crush

So... I watched the April Fools video for Bendy: Campus Crush, and I'm having conniptions.

On the one hand, I love the idea of a Bendy story taking place in a modern-like era. On the other hand, some of the character designs are making my brain go into a million different directions on what the plot would actually be.

First off: What do I think about the characters.

Audrey: She looks like a completely different person. And I get it's supposed to be "anime-like", but I just see it as mid.

Henry: Literally looks like somebody's Henry design before we got Henry's ACTUAL appearance in Bendy and the Dark Revival. I actually DO like it, but I think they could have made him a LITTLE bit older looking.'

Boris: Just... WHY? I mean I get it, he's a wolf, and it's accurate, but THIS is one of the things that have been giving me conniptions! Like, are humans and beastkin (what I call human-like animals) living together in harmony or is this a werewolf situation? Plus... Is this Buddy or Tom? If it's Buddy, I'm going to rage. If it's Tom... Will still rage but have a lesser amount.

Sammy: Oh my god... He ACTUALLY looks good AND accurate. I WANT the REAL Sammy to have this outfit in the next real game. But he's also been giving me conniptions! Like... Is he just a theater kid who wears the mask to be mysterious or does he have some kind of facial disfiguration like Susie and uses the mask to hide it?

Joey: He looks like if he was back in his war days. No, I'm serious. Not only does he look like he kind of has his life together, but he's probably a lot happier too.

Susie/"Ms. Angel": I HATE it. It just looks like they just took some of Twisted Alice's disfiguration and slapped it on a random anime girl they found on the internet.

Bendy: I do like this one, but the horns are a LITTLE bit too big. Size them down a bit and you should be good.

Ink Demon: I had chills when I first saw him. But in a GOOD way. Looking at him reminded me of the early days of DDLC when Monika was ACTUALLY scary.

Allison: Same argument I made about Audrey but a bit more mid. She looks like an elementary student but I still do care about her. Don't see her as romanceable though.

Wilson: NO. Just NO. Get him off this campus. I do NOT want him anywhere near me or the others.

Next: The plot.

Now THIS is what's been keeping me up at night, but I think I have some kind of idea.

First, this is a female Y/N story, meaning you either have a default name or put in your own name.

And I know what you're thinking.

"Why would you immediately assume the Y/N is female?"

Well, considering the actual Bendy series takes place in the 60s and 70s, the LGBTQ representation wasn't exactly THERE back then, so of course the MC would be female.

Second, this is going to be a loop story, kind of like what DDLC did. Basically this means you're going to go through each romance path once until you get the true ending.

Like for example, you go through Henry's path, but at the end you either die or get corrupted by a certain someone, then you go back at the beginning, but you will not be able to romance him anymore.

Once you go through Boris', and Sammy's paths, you'll be able to get to the true ending which is the Ink Demon. That one I'll explain in a bit.

Third, Bendy and Audrey are your guides. You don't assume anything at first, thinking Bendy's just some hallucination the MC's mind created, but you find out that Audrey and everyone else can see him too. Also, they stay by your side after every loop until the true ending. I imagine him being the "little brother and big sister" characters to the MC that at first dislike them but end up seeing them like the siblings they never had.

Fourth, there is a matchmaking mechanic that will be used in the true ending. Basically, it means you have to get your former romanceables with people who ACTUALLY love them, like for example Henry with Linda and Boris with Allison.

Fifth, Wilson is the true antagonist. Let's face it, the guy's a villain through and through, no changing that. He'd basically pull the same act that he did on Audrey back in Revival on the MC by pretending to be on their side but in the end, he reveals he was the one killing the MC in every ending except the true ending.

Sixth, the "mystery" will be our MC trying to get their real memories back. Yes, I know. The "Amnesia" trope has been done to death but considering this is a loop story, I think it's warranted.

Seventh, the Ink Demon will be the real romance path in the true ending. This is because I believe the MC was the Ink Demon's future bride but on her wedding day Wilson ended up killing her. The Ink Demon then revived us but the first time we ended up with amnesia. After all the other paths are done, we then go down the Ink Demon's route that is basically the MC just falling in love with him all over again and we defeat Wilson for good.

These are my thoughts so far. For those who want to somehow make this a reality, you can use my this as some kind of guideline. Have a good day/night!

Chap. 15- Miss. Chalice Takes the Stage

Alright!! Time to introduce a new character, Miss. Chalice!

So a quick thing, even though Indie Kids are based on the games. I made Cuphead, Mugman, and Miss. Chalice is based on their TV show counterparts. In my opinion, it fits the theme of how random this story can get, plus they have more characters this way. Also The Cuphead Show Miss. Chalice would most definitely fit the Indie Kids' world.

Thanks to @gigilefache for being my beta reader!

Enjoy!

~~~~~~

Cuphead and Mugman had overslept. Mugman rushed out of the house in a hurry. “Hurry, Cuphead! We’re gonna be late!” He yelled.

Cuphead was still busy stuffing his mouth with pancakes. He washed down some orange juice. “Coming!” Cuphead yelled, grabbing his backpack and his lunch before rushing out the door with his brother.

“Why did you and I have to stay up and read comics!” Mugman yelled.

“Hey, you didn’t have to read them with me!” Cuphead snapped back.

“Well, you seemed to be enjoying them!”

They kept running until suddenly, a figure jumped right in front of them. The brothers screamed in fear.

 “Hiya fellas!” A female Chalice beamed. She had a golden head and wore a light blue skirt.

Cuphead calmed down and smiled. “Chalice!” He beamed.

Mugman sighed knowing it was only his friend Miss. Chalice. “Chalice. Please don’t scare us like that again.”

Miss. Chalice chuckled. “Sorry about that,” she replied, “anyways, you two wanna head to the lake and skip some rocks?” She asked.

“Not right now Chalice! Cuphead and I are gonna be late for school!” Mugman declined.

This made Miss. Chalice’s eyes shine. “Oooh! I have never been to school before! Could I come along?”

Cuphead and Mugman stopped and looked at each other. Even though Chalice was their friend, they knew bringing her, a non-student, to the school would have some…consequences, especially with the teachers and the principal.

 “S-sorry Chalice, school is boring. You won’t like it.” Cuphead explained.

“D-don’t worry we’ll play after school! We promise!” Mugman added. He then took Cuphead by the arm and the two dashed off. 

Miss. Chalice looked at her friends, confused until something came to mind. “Well, I just have to come to school myself.” She said as she transformed into a spectral figure of herself and followed the brothers.

The brothers eventually made it with only five minutes until the first period. 

“Made it!” Mugman sighed.

She turned back to her physical form and smiled looking at the grand marble structure before her. “Ah, so this is school?” She chuckled. “Well then, time to see what goes on here.” Miss. Chalice shifted back into her ghost form and disappeared into the building.

Miss. Chalice Evan trying to hold himself together while balancing his and his brother's stuff on his hands. Quickly Miss. Chalice flew on by and closed Evan’s locker for him. “Thank you!” Evan beamed.

“No problem!” Miss. Chalice replied.

Evan started walking to class but froze in shock when he realized that whoever was helping him was someone he couldn’t see. He looked around hoping the person was there, but saw no one. Evan gulped and quickly walked to class.

Once the bell had run and the hallways were empty, Miss. Chalice decided to take herself through the halls. 

“Now let’s see where Cuphead and Mugman’s lockers are.” As she floated across the halls she passed by Cuphead and Mugman’s homeroom classroom.

Miss. Chalice looked through the doors of a classroom and smiled seeing her friends paying attention to a lesson. Cuphead sat there bored and Mugman smiled and took notes. “I don’t know what Cuphead meant by boring, but this place looks great! Lots of kids, a place to hang out, the school has everything!”

Just as Miss. Chalice was about to break out into song and she froze seeing Boris stare right in her direction. Boris titled his head in confusion and a flash Miss. Chalice flew away. The wolf was confused, but shrugged it off before continuing with his schoolwork.

Miss. Chalice decided to keep looking around the school before passing by Lucas’s classroom. She took a peek in the window and saw a bunch of kids in this class laughing and telling stories. “Well, this looks fun.” Miss. Chalice said. She decided to watch the class through the door windows a bit more.

Inside, Evan was trying to get Michael’s attention, but his older brother was ignoring him. “Mikey! Mikey!” Evan whispered.

Michael groaned and turned towards his little brother. “What is it?” He groaned.

“I think I saw a ghost.” Evan whispered in reply. Michael groaned and turned away from his little brother. Evan groaned in disbelief seeing that his older brother didn’t believe him.

Miss. Chalice frowned and thought about how to cheer up the younger boy. With a snap of her fingers, she was able to go through the doors of the classroom. She decided to stay behind Evan and watch him work. As she watched him, Evan felt a slight chill behind him and he looked around, wondering where it came from. He gulped and went back to focus on his work thinking it was just the air conditioner being turned on.

He seems pretty skittish for a kid his age, Miss. Chalice thought to herself. I could talk to him, but I’ll wait till he’s alone.

By the time the bell rang Evan quickly dashed out of the classroom to his next class. “Is Evan okay?” Elizabeth asked.

“He’s just being a baby as always. Says he saw a ghost.” Michael replied, chuckling.

Elizabeth rolled her eyes and went to her next class. As she did she heard her older brother yell and saw him on the ground. The kids pointed and laughed at his fall. “Michael!” Elizabeth yelled, running to him. “Are you okay?”

“I think so.” Michael asked, rubbing his head. “I think something tripped me.” Elizabeth helped him up and looked around the floor and saw nothing that could’ve made her big brother trip.

What Elizabeth didn’t notice was Miss. Chalice was right next to her as she chuckled before following Evan to his next class. While following him, Boris was right behind her following her scent. Miss. Chalice stopped and turned, but saw that Boris was looking at something else trying to play off as to not follow her. Miss. Chalice shrugged and kept on going to Evan’s classroom and Boris continued to follow her.

“Uh, Boris?” Bendy asked, causing the wolf toon to stop. “What are you doing?”

“I sense there’s an invisible presence and I’m following them. Trying to see if they’re harmful or not.” Boris replied.

Bendy’s eyes widened, interested in what Boris told him. “Oooh like a ghost! Count me in!” He beamed.

Boris smiled. “Great! I sense the ghost going to the math classroom right ahead.”

“Hey! I’m going there right now. Maybe I can get this ghost to appear.” Bendy suggested.

“Good luck Bendy!” Boris beamed. Bendy waved goodbye and went to his math class. While there, he sensed someone, a cold presence, but couldn’t see them. “Hey if you’re a ghost, give me a sign that I shouldn’t go to class today!” He announced. The ink demon waited, but shrugged, not getting a response. Though once he got to class, before he could sit down someone pulled Bendy’s chair back causing him to fall and the class to laugh.

Bendy shook it off and was able to hear a distinct laugh from someone; Miss Chalice. He narrowed his eyes and got up before pushing his chair in and sitting down. “Found you.” He whispered.

Miss. Chalice gasped and looked down at Bendy who just smirked as he got all his stuff ready for the day. “How did you know I’m here? No one can see me?” She whispered.

“I can sense when someone is hiding.” Bendy replied with a whisper. Miss. Chalice glared while Bendy smirked as class started.

Once Bendy’s math class was over, Miss. Chalice dragged him out of the class and pushed him into the boys' bathroom to the first open stall she saw. She then made herself noticeable to the ink demon. “Okay we can’t stay long here, but you're the third person to know me as a ghost! I was so hidden, so sneaky, how can you notice I’m here!”

Bendy crossed his arms. “Like I said, I can sense when people are around. It’s in my ink blood.” He explained.

“Does that mean your wolf friend can sense me too?” Miss. Chalice asked. Bendy nodded. “Wow.” She chuckled.

“I know.” Bendy chuckled in reply. “Anyways I’m Bendy!” The demon held his hand out for the ghost to shake it.

“Chalice. Miss. Chalice. Nice to meet ya.” Miss. Chalice replied, holding her hand out for the demon to shake it. However, with her being a ghost the two couldn’t shake hands properly. Though the two tried their best which also gave them a laugh.

“Wait a second.” A familiar voice said outside of the stall. “I know that laugh! Chalice!” Miss. Chalice looked outside to see Cuphead in the bathroom. Quickly, she dragged him and pushed him inside the stall with Bendy. The demon gave a nervous chuckle and waved at the toon cup. “Bendy! What’s going on here?”

“Listen you ding-dong. I followed you to school and after what I’ve seen this place is great!” Miss. Chalice beamed. “How come you never told me about this place?”

“Well like I said it’s boring, and second of all, I know how you manipulate people with your charming ways, and the principal of this school will hunt you down the second you do!” Cuphead explained.

Bendy blinked in shock hearing Cuphead confess all that. “She can manipulate people?” He asked.

“Oh, it’s easy. I’ll show you sometime.” Miss. Chalice said. “Plus I can turn invisible, remember, no way the principal can’t see me.”

“First off Bendy, no. Second, the best way to not get caught is to be out of the school.”

“Come on Cuphead. Can’t she just stay for the day?” Bendy asked. “Please.” Bendy’s eyes widened going into puppy dog eye mode. Cuphead shook it off and tried to be strong and not fall for it, but soon Miss. Chalice started to do the same puppy dog eyes as well.

Cuphead struggled to stay strong, but the two pairs of puppy dog eyes were no match for him. “Fine, but if you get caught I’m not saving your behind.” Cuphead said.

Bendy and Miss. Chalice looked at one another and gave themselves another failed high five. “Works every time!” Miss. Chalice beamed.

“You know it!” Bendy added.

“Now can we please leave the bathroom? I don’t want us to be late.” Cuphead said. Bendy and Miss. Chalice nodded and left the bathroom together.

The rest of the day was normal, though normal for Miss. Chalice standard. She decided to mess with some of the kids and teachers, but made sure she didn’t go far. Like moving a pencil, or chairs, something that could be easily explained. It made the class giggle, especially Bendy who was happy the school got a little bit of chaos going around.

By the time lunch happened, that’s when things got crazy. Miss. Chalice knew that was her time to cause mayhem. A lunchroom gave her so many ideas of what kinds of mayhem to cause. “Alright Bendy, should I steal lunches or start a food fight?” She asked.

Bendy chuckled remembering the food fight he started a few weeks ago. He let out a nervous chuckle before replying, “Sadly food fights,” he said in a low whisper not to trigger anyone to start one, “are not allowed here, but stealing food wasn’t in the rules.”

Miss. Chalice smiled and wondered what would be chaotic enough. She then saw the tray of cookies at the end of the lunch line and smiled. “Want a cookie?” She asked.

Bendy nodded. “Yep!” He replied. The two separate, with Miss. Chalice cuts everyone in the lunch line to get a cookie, and Bendy sits with Boris and Alice while watching the ghost Chalice steal.

In turn, this shocks Mugman and Aubrey who saw two cookies get stolen right in front of them. The two looked at each other before seeing the cookie land in Bendy’s hand. The other cookie floated and was eaten in two bites.

Mugman rubbed his chin and wondered what was going on. “Something strikes me as familiar with how that cookie was taken.” He said.

“Yeah, very familiar.” Cuphead added, trying to sound like he didn’t know anything.

Aubrey sighed as she got a cookie and turned to face the cup bros. “Sounds like you guys know something is going on.” She said, smirking.

Cuphead chuckled. “W-what are you talking about?” He asked.

“Yeah, we don’t know anything about that.” Mugman replied, frightened by Aubrey’s demeanor. “Oh look the line’s moving, come on Cuphead let’s get to our seats.”

“Not so fast!” Aubrey threatened, having her bat out to block them. Mugman squeaked, jumping back from Aubrey’s weapon. “Today has been a crazy day, and when I was in 3rd period Cuphead looked rather worried.” She then turned her bat towards Cuphead and held it against his chin. “Do you know anything?”

Cuphead chuckled frightened at Aubrey’s weapon and stepped back. “Nope, nothing at all!” He lied. Cuphead gulped when Aubrey pressed her bat closer to the point Cuphead felt himself cracking. “Okay! Okay! A friend of ours named Miss. Chalice snuck into the school and is the one causing all that trouble! Please don’t kill me!”

Aubrey smirked and removed the bat from Cuphead which gave him relief. Mugman went over to his brother and patted his back as he took deep breaths.

“You know I love messing with people, but I won’t kill them.” Aubrey mentioned.

“Oh, but I can, because what do you mean Chalice followed us?” Mugman yelled, shaking his brother.

“Well, she followed us.” Cuphead answered. Mugman glared, and Cuphead gave a sheepish smile.

“Wait,” The three looked up to see Evan and his siblings right behind them. “You mean to tell me you’re friends with a ghost!”

Cuphead and Mugman looked at each other before looking back at the siblings. “Well…” The cup bros simultaneously trailed.

“Look, never mind that! We have to catch her before my dad does!” Michael shouted.

“Right!” Cuphead and Mugman beamed. The group went over to where Bendy and his friends were sitting and saw Boris and Alice confused as to where Bendy got that cookie. “Alright, Chalice! Half the school knows so you can appear now!” Cuphead announced.

A sigh was heard and Miss. Chalice made herself appear to the group. “Should have known.”

“I knew there was a ghost here!” Boris shouted.

“Everyone this is Chalice, Miss. Chalice, she's a friend of ours.” Cuphead introduced.

Miss. Chalice waved at the group. “Nice to meet ya!” She beamed.

“So you're the one who’s been scaring our little brother.” Elizabeth said.

Miss. Chalice blinked in surprise. “I didn’t mean to scare him. I was just interested in what he was drawing.” She explained.

“You mean my doodle of Fredbear?” Evan asked.

“Yeah! It’s really good!” Miss. Chalice commented.

Evan chuckled. “Thanks.”

Miss. Chalice smiled, but that quickly changed when Aubrey and Michael went up to her. “So that means all the minor chaos was your fault, wasn't it?” Michael asked.

“You betcha!” Miss. Chalice beamed as she snapped her fingers. “Though that’s just in my nature.” Michael and Aubrey gave a small glare, which made Miss. Chalice chuckled nervously. “Well, my work here is done! I’ll see you after school, Cuphead, and Mugman!” She then flew off in a dash.

Soon William burst into the cafeteria, “What’s going on here?” He asked, shouting.

“Nothing!” The kids shouted at the same time. William looked around to see if anything was out of place before leaving and going back to his office. The kids sighed in relief seeing they were safe.

After lunch, the rest of the school day was normal with no other problems. Miss. Chalice was waiting outside the school and smiled hearing the bell ring as the kids rushed out to go home. Cuphead and Mugman finally came out of school exhausted from everything that went on today. “Hey, you guys!” Miss. Chalice beamed. “Ready to hang out?” She asked.

“After the day we had today,” Mugman started. “I guess we can hang out.” Miss. Chalice smiled as she and her two ding dongs left school and went to the lake nearby to skip some rocks.

By morning, Cuphead and Mugman were walking to school, this time a little earlier than yesterday. “Well, Chalice saw what school was like.” Cuphead said.

“And despite the chaos, we weren’t killed by our classmates.” Mugman added.

While the two were walking, someone was following behind them and then pounced, hugging them. “Morning fellas!” Cuphead and Mugman looked up and saw it was Miss. Chalice.

“Chalice! What are you doing here?” Cuphead asked.

“Going to school! I got myself enrolled and now I’ll be going to school with you guys!” Miss. Chalice explained.

Cuphead and Mugman looked in shock. The two brothers looked at one another before looking at their friend. “That’s amazing Chalice.” Mugman said with a smile and shaking her head.

“Yeah! Now we can go to school together!” Cuphead beamed.

“I know!” Miss. Chalice replied. “Now c’mon! We got the best first day of school together!”

Cuphead and Mugman cheered, but once Miss. Chalice wasn’t looking, they gave a nervous chuckle knowing now things will be a lot crazier now.

Chapter 27: Time to walk the plank

-Break the cycle-

The Demon hunched over, and dug her gloved hands into the wretched wooded floors. She had just barely escaped.

Beebee stood to her full height, feeling relived to be out of that horrible small body. She didn’t like being small, at least not without Bendys comfort.

Though, she quickly retracted the thought of Bendy, since she has now seen what he…really is.

The large female Demon was covered in scratches, she winced while sliding her way around. The Ink Demon had slashed her, these injuries being inflicted while still in her toon form. She had witnessed Bendy’s painful transformation into the beast before escaping or, so to speak. After the first three slashes, The Ink Demon actually let her go, surprisingly.

The Demon had no idea where her fellow companions, Audrey and Azael were, but tried her best to locate them both.

She slid down the halls for at least thirty minutes, before hearing light footsteps. Feeling panicked, Beebee bolted behind a few boxes; just big enough for her to hide behind. She heard multiple footsteps enter the room she was in. Two light, one heavy. The Demon lifted the ink that drooled over her eyes and peered over the boxes to get a better look.

To her surprise, and confusion; two angel toons and a Boris toon had entered the room in search for something. One angel wielded a sword, while the other was armed with a Tommy gun.

Beebee tried to sink into a puddle, but she couldn’t for some odd reason. Like her powers were limited ever since she entered her toon state. The Demon shuffled behind the boxes and one of the angels must’ve heard as they called out.

"Who’s there? Show yourself!" The angel demanded, scanning the room. She could see Beebee’s horns poking behind the boxes, she shouted again.

"I know you’re there! Come out!" The angel sternly requested while cocking her gun. The Demon felt rightfully threatened and felt as she had no choice but to show herself. She did so, the toons stumbled aback upon seeing her. Perhaps they mistook her for the Ink Demon, lots of inhabitants do that these days, she didn’t really mind it since she thought it was funny.

The toons tensed faces rested a bit when realizing she wasn’t the Ink Demon, she just looked extremely similar. The only contrast being, Beebee wore clothes and a headband, she was also much much much shorter.

The angel with the gun had her hair in a ponytail, her halo wrapped around her head. She sized the Demon up and down with her gun, Beebee threw her hands up in surrender. The other angel, who properly looked almost identical to Alice Angel, gasped at the Demons state.

After a few pat downs, they realized the Demon made no move to attack them. the toons deemed her safe before exchanged their names to her.

Allison, Addison, and Tom. Got it.

Allison apologized for scaring the Demon with her weapon and promised she wouldn’t point it at her anymore. Beebee appreciated it since she wasn’t too fond of weapons because of the Keepers. The wolf sat next to Allison, they signed something, Beebee couldn’t understand so turned her attention elsewhere.

Addison felt saddened when seeing the Demons scars and offered to help clean her up, even though, Beebee didn’t respond the generous angel began to patch her anyway.

"Aw…you poor poor thing…" the angel muttered while wiping Beebee’s wounds.

The Demon leaned in on her, Addison didn’t seem to notice. The tall Demon smelled her. She was stunned to catch Audrey, and Bendy’s scent on the angel. She must’ve noticed as she raised her head to look at Beebee; quizzically.

The Demon felt embarrassed and quickly moved her head away, though, she was curious on why the angel smelt like her companions. Did she know them? Maybe she had a run in with them? The Demon leaned over to the other angel, but with a distance so she wouldn’t notice, and sniffed. She too, smelt like Audrey, the wolf as well. Perhaps these were Audrey’s friends?

"There you go, dear. Does that feel better? Is it too tight?" Addison asked, loosening the bandages she had applied to the Demon. Beebee held her hand out, and waved it in a dismissive manner. The angel nodded and gave a warm smile.

Allison stood up and approached Beebee, tapping her to get her attention. Once she had it, she began to speak.

"What’s your name?" The angel asked, tilting her head a bit. The Demon scrapped her forehead; collecting some ink and leaning towards the floor to write. Once she wrote her name out, she gazed at Allison for her response. The armed angel nodded.

"Okay, well, Beebee, do you happen to know a girl named Audrey?" The angel inquired, Beebee’s head immediately perked up upon hearing the animators name, she quickly nodded.

"I figured. Look, we need your help. Well, more of Audrey needs your help. Can you come with us? Your help would be extremely appreciated." Allison offered, the Demon nodded in agreement, and attempted to stand once the angel motioned for her to get up.

She stumbled however, due to her legs still being weak. Addison caught her as she almost fell. Allison motioned for Tom to help Addison, he did so and they propped the Demon up.

Beebee used the toons to stand up straight, once she did the toons let off her. Allison led the way while her companions followed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Audrey sped her way around, she had to make it back to where she first met Betty, so she could talk to Wilson. Hopefully he was ready.

As she ventured she felt her powers dwindle, someone turned on the signal towers nearby.

"Dammit..." the artist muttered under her breath.

The artist was still determined, and pushed forward, crouching under a few boards blocking the entrance and opening trash cans for loot. Suddenly, she was stopped in her tracks as that horrible mixed voice rumbled her head.

"They promise us peace, but they bring us only more pain!" The voice gargled and snarled, it sounded like it was switching. No matter, Audrey shook her head, shutting the voice out. She really wished it would stop doing that.

The artist entered the next room, Keepers swarmed the area. Fantastic.

She tried her best to avoid them but there were too many and most were blocking the place she needed to go.

The artist looked around, perhaps she could create some kind of distraction? She found a broken music box, perfect!

Once she fixed it, it began to play, Keepers made their way to investigate.

Audrey quickly snuck past them, turned off the nearby signal tower, and snuck into the area said Keepers once guarded.

She sighed to herself and pumped her fist in silent celebration.

Moving forward, that familiar wallpaper covered the walls and not long after, Audrey spotted Betty in the lobby looking around. Does that mean she’d just been in the a North Wing?

The artist made herself known, Betty jumped; startled, but then sighed in relief. Seems she was looking for Audrey.

"There you are! Thank goodness! Where…did you come from?" The maid said, checking Audrey all over.

"I’d…uh, rather not talk about it." Audrey muttered, swinging her hands behind her back to hide her weapon. Betty didn’t seem to question it further as she moved topic.

"Alright well, Wilson’s waiting for you downstairs in the laboratory when your ready." Betty said while patting Audrey, the artist nodded and dusted herself off further.

"Oh, um but first, can I get your help with something?" The maid asked clasping her hands.

"Um sure, what is it?" Audrey said, besides Betty had already helped her out a bunch. Helping her back would be like giving her something in return.

"Normally, I wouldn’t ask this of a guest, but, with all that’s happening I can’t sneak out and get things like a I usually do." Betty sighed but continued. "Do you think you could pop round to the Farmers Market back in town and find me a few ingredients? We’re running quite low in the kitchen and I was hoping we could all celebrate tonight with a lovely supper! Won’t take but a moment if you go by train." The maid said, gesturing to the doors.

Audrey thought for a moment, it’s quite aways out, but it’s the least she could do, actual food sounded so good right now.

"Up to you, though! No pressure!" The maid said, throwing her hands up. Though, Audrey had already made up her mind and nodded.

"No no, I’ll go, it’s the least I could do." She said, smiling. Betty clapped her hands and thanked the artist. She gave Audrey a list of things to collect, the animator took it before heading down to the subway.

Maybe, she could meet Azael somewhere along the way, the thought made her even more determined. No Keepers guarded the station, it’d a smooth ride.

The artist boarded the train, once she was sat, the train began to move. She deeply sighed and closed her eyes to rest.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Demon watched as the angel scavenge around the room for loot. She grumbled in annoyance when nothing could be found.

Allison and Tom had split up from them and requested for them both to stay put. Beebee sat awkwardly in a corner while Addison paced around for a few minutes before plopping down in a seat. She practically threw herself down, while sighing.

The Demon stared, Addison didn’t really seem to notice, for she had her eyes closed.

Soon enough, the angel turned her attention to her far away admirer, to which Beebee quickly darted her head away. Addison’s heavenly gaze made the Demon a bit nervous.

The female Demon fiddled with her fingers, Addison’s eyes never left her it seemed. Soon, the angel began to speak, presumably to fill the silence.

"Um, are your arms feeling any better, Bee?" Addison asked, breaking the Demon out her thoughts; her cheeks lightly flushed at the nickname but she nodded.

"Aha, that’s good, but I was wondering…how’d you exactly get those injuries? You seem too large for any wanderer to inflict them." The angel inquired. The Demon looked down, compensating on either to tell or not, or maybe she was just trying to escape Addison’s gaze. She soon made up her mind and wrote on the floor, the angel leaned over to get a better view.

"Ink Demon." Beebee wrote, she turned her gaze back onto Addison, to which said angel nodded.

"Ah right, I forgot…he was back." Addison sighed with a dry chuckle, Beebee returned her vision to the floor again.

Silence filled the room, the Demon could tell it was bothering her angel companion, for the heavenly angel’s eyes kept darting around and she constantly shifted in her seat, uncomfortably.

A few more moments passed and Addison turned her gaze back to Beebee, to which the Demon turned away.

"Say, do you want to learn sign? It’s much easier than writing, since that takes time." The angel offered to teach her, at least until Tom and Allison returned. It could be fun, and useful, the Demon lightly nodded.

Addison smiled and got up from her seat to close the large space between her and Beebee. Once she was close enough, the Demon felt her face redden; she scooted back a little bit.

The angel didn’t seem to notice and showed basic sign. Beebee tried to copy Addison’s hand motions, but got some things wrong. Whenever she’d get something wrong the angel would catch her hands and show her the correct way. The Demon would apologize for messing up, to which Addison reassured her.

They signed for awhile, to pass time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Audrey rushed up the stairs, Betty waited for her. The small lady lit up when seeing her walk up the stairs. The artist sighed to herself, with no luck, she couldn’t find her companion but grabbed the things the housekeeper needed; quickly.

The artist eagerly handed the ingredients to Betty, the maid happily took them. If she wasn’t wearing a mask, Audrey was sure she’d see a big smile.

"You’re a miracle worker, truly! Oh, I only wish there was something I could do for you…" the maid said with much giddiness in her voice, she seemed very happy. Audrey really didn’t want anything in return but couldn’t get a word in.

"Oh, wait, I spotted something in the fountain yesterday. I don’t really know what it’s for, but you’re welcome to have it. But, after, you’d better hurry to Wilson downstairs…he’s been waiting for ages." Betty said thanking Audrey once again and respectfully bowing. The animator was curious about the item in the fountain and rushed over there.

Once Audrey was up to the fountain, she hesitantly poked at the mysterious outstander stuck within the Ink, and eventually lifted the floating item. It was a broken cup with what appeared to be a silly looking face carved into it. The item seemed familiar to Audrey. She pocketed the item before heading down to Wilson’s lab.

The artist descended, when venturing deeper, she spotted a barrel with liquid pouring out. This wouldn’t be as much surprise but liquid was bright with a rainbow palette. Seeming very out of place and alien like. She proceeding past it and eventually saw tubes with the same flowing rainbow liquid.

A door opened ahead, the walls were painted with this rainbow substance. Like someone was trying to paint color onto this world; forcefully. It was very out of place with the yellow bathed floors.

Descending further, she was met with the entrance of the lab, when approaching the door she could hear the old janitor speak.

"Audrey! You made it, good! Come inside my dear, we have to discuss. But make you’re ready, where we’re going there will be no return, until we’ve accomplished our mission" the man said, Audrey took note and made herself as ready as she possibly could. The doors opened, she was allowed in.

Wilson hunched over a desk as Audrey approached him, he turned to her.

"Thank you for coming all this way. The Realm Rulers are formidable foes." Wilson explained, facing the animator. Audrey felt like interjecting, and clearing Weepers innocence, but decided against it. Wilson continued,

"They must be dethroned, humiliated. For months now, I’ve been working on something that will do exactly that." The janitor led Audrey forward, she followed as he continued.

"Cast out the Realm Rulers, more importantly the demon. Put a new deity in their place. Stronger, bigger, more powerful, and controllable. Together, we just need to unleash our ultimate weapon." Wilson stopped in front of a pod. Audrey stoped as well, and stared at the large capsule.

"Let me show you my creation." The old man said, as the pod turned its walls open. It revealed a small painting of a toon, dressed in a sailors outfit with a pet crab. How…cute.

"Isn’t he beautiful? Simple, but elegant. A treasure. Powerful beyond anyone. The Ink Demon, and his troublesome opposite number will fall, and we can finally have peace." Wilson said, Audrey turned to the painting of the small sailor. Doubt rushed over her, but it could be a success. She pondered before speaking her mind.

"It…could work, but it sounds risky. How can we control him? We don’t wanna repeat Joey’s mistake." Audrey said, the janitor seemed to agree as he nodded.

"No, we don’t. All the factors must be perfect. The right design, the right science…" as Wilson explained, the pod turned its walls again, revealing an empty space. Just big enough to fit at least two or three people in. The animator felt the rush of doubt and anxiety again as the man finished.

"And…the right soul." As the janitor finished, saw blades shot from the empty space and turned slowly before retreating back into their empty holes. Audrey took a step back, in realization. She whispered to herself,

"What?" She gasped, Wilson jumped in front fo her.

"At last you’re purpose is revealed, Audrey! This is why you’re here! With your soul inside him my creation will live forever!" Wilson rambled with determination, Audrey shook her head in disbelief.

"N-no! Stay away from me, you’re insane!" She spewed bitterly. Wilson just smiled and continued.

"Come now, Audrey! Part of you knew this was your path. Leave yourself behind and ascend!" This was crazy talk, all Audrey wanted to do was go home.

"I thought you said we needed to save your father! I thought you had a plan to send me home! To make everything right!" Audrey shouted, she couldn’t bottle up how frustrated she really was.

The man just smiled and uttered, "I lied." Of course he did, Allison was right. He continued about how his father was the owner of Arch gate, Nathan Arch. The janitor explained how he had always lived in his fathers shadow. The artist couldn’t feel bad for him anymore, he had drowned her, dragged her through hell and lied. Enough is enough.

Audrey quickly launched her hand forward in an attempt to banish Wilson, he caught her attack with ease.

"No need to struggle. My signal prevents you from using those devilish powers of yours…and more importantly…" Wilson blabbered, the artist swung her pipe, he caught that as well. "It keeps the Realm Rulers from getting in." He finished. The grueling reality of the situation hit Audrey as Wilson dragged her closer to the saw blades. No one to help her escape.

"It’s time to die, Audrey…and live again, as a god!" The janitor shouted with determination as he dragged Audrey. She hit him over the head as hard as she possibly could, to her delight it sent him back. Loosening his grip.

"No! Not this time!" The artist shouted and hit Wilson again over the head, this was enough for him to completely let her go. She took this chance of freedom and shoved the old man with all her might. He stumbled back, losing his footing. The blades shot out and sliced him to bits. His yellow blood sprayed the pods walls.

Audrey averted her eyes, not wanting to take in the gruesome sight. Wilson’s cries rang throughout the lab, until they stopped. The pod closed, but Audrey could still see what was left of Wilson sprayed about the floor. Well, that’s that. The artist sighed and hurried forward.

The only thought running through the artists mind was how the Ink Demon, or whatever creature warned her about Wilson, was right, he had lied. It was all she could think about really.

She walked through a few twisted corridors, they seemingly closed in on her. Claustrophobic. She pressed forward however and entered a large room with many signal towers. What caught her immediate attention, was the large replica of the ink machine from the real world.

Her thoughts were cutoff by the Demon’s voice. If anything, she was expecting that weird mixed voice again.

"You’re both birthed from the darkest shadows. Audrey, it’s time to ask the question." The Demon said, he strangely sounded more…calm. As he spoke, a lever arises in front of the animator. She hesitated, but pulled it. Once she did, she immediately regretted it as the signal towers sprung to life, and her powers were drained. Such a bad and stupid idea.

While Audrey was still recovering, a anchor shot from the inky abyss ahead, she dashed out of the way. Just barely.

Then, after the anchor made its way out, a giant monster leapt out as well. An abomination of the cute painting she had seen earlier, before killing Wilson.

It was hideous, monstrous, in no way better than the Ink Demon.

It wailed and shrieked at Audrey when collecting its anchor. The artist acted quickly, and sprung to her feet. It threw its large anchor towards her, she just narrowly dodged it. Luckily, it hit a signal tower. Audrey was able to turn it off.

One last battle, or so Audrey hoped.

Chapter 26 / Chapter 28

[lex-n-weegie]

Been thinking about Bendy and redoing my self insert for it, and I think I have a neat idea cause of some funky stuff that happened in Dark Revival (everything else will be under read more to avoid spoilering folks)

Actually rq lemme ramble about something else. There's a new female butcher gang member, a ghost girl if I remember correctly, and she has a physical form and everything despite seemingly not being used at all. It kinda makes me want to make Amber a concept character, though not really canon show wise.

Anywho studio Amber

I had the idea that Amber would have the nickname "Mama Wolf," as her whole thing would be trying to protect the Boris clones all around the studio. I came up with a little story where when she first emerged from the puddles, she accidentally ran into a Boris who took care of her and helped her get used to this scary new world.

Then, through some unfortunate circumstances, Boris ends up sacrificing himself for Amber and gets killed. She later met another clone and soon learned there were many wolves around. So, like the first Boris she was with, she became a protector. She'd help them with food or shelter, even weapons if she could. It earned her the nickname "Mama Wolf" by some.

I even thought that maybe she's the reason Tom was alive. Perhaps Tom went toe to toe with the ink demon or Alice, but Amber would distract them and even at one point, take a hit for him (resulting in an injured eye).

I've also been wondering about the differences between Ink Machine and Dark Revival. I had a thought of Amber being with Boris and Henry during chapter 3, getting badly hurt in the elevator crash to the point in chapter 4 she'd simply sit next to the haunted house ride, in too much pain to do much of anything. She'd even die just before Henry gets on the ride, though I'm still workshopping it.

For Dark Revival, I was thinking that maybe she'd be alive, perhaps even run into Audrey herself. After Allison of course. She could even show up at the end with everyone else. I honestly wonder how her and Allison would get along, since it seems Allison cares somewhat for Alice while Amber would absolutely hate her, for obvious reasons

"Wolf mom" concept doesn't work, or how to fix Aniu

Previously (here, here and here and partially here) I discussed about the main mistake of Balto-2 — to make Balto's mother to be his wolf side instead of father. This mistake created lots of plot holes and contradictions to the original movie, Balto's behavior, conflict and arc. Not to mention the fact that it made Balto's mother not just a wolf, but the friggin wolf goddess — it looks incredibly hillarious in context of the original movie and the white wolf scene especially, like "Oh, dear son, I am the wolf goddess and also your mother who ignored you all your life and was okay with how dogs and humans bullied you and how the malamute tried to murder you thrice. You despise me and my whole kind and want to be a dog and be among dogs despite the fact that your dog father abandoned me after mating!.. although I mated with him and then abandoned you to suffer for the great design and the prophecy... but no matter... And you want to serve to humans, who killed my children through whole own existense, so I'll help you to save our two-legged formidable foes." (same thing about crazy fan-theories with "wolf-mother was killed by hunters or hunters stole Balto from the den").

The fundamental aspect is that if Balto's mother was a wolf, and Balto had fond memories about her and loved her, Balto would never be ashamed of his wolf side, he'd be proud, he'd consider himself as a regular wolf and live with wolves. Especially if he never had a father, he'd never know that his father was a mutt, and he'd hate dogs. He'd never decide to stay to live among humans and dogs, who rejected him, he'd go with a pack. The sequel ruins the original movie on the fundamental level, making it impossible.

Even if to try fixing it with "Let the wolf mother to either die or to abandon Balto, so that's why he either can't leave Nome or denies his wolf side", here we still see contradictions — if Balto denies his wolf heritage due to the betrayal from his wolf mother, why he doesn't deny his dog side as well, if his father abandoned his mother after mating? If he has hatred toward wolves, why he has no hatred toward dogs, if parents of both sides rejected and abandoned him? Even if Balto was unaware that his father was a dog, but still was abandoned by wolf mother, he still would hate both sides, both wolves, dogs and humans, he'd trust only to Boris, and his conflict would be in forgiving his mother and accepting his wolf nature, the only thing he had and knew. If Balto's mother died (okay, what was the reason of her death? if humans and dogs killed her, then Balto would hate humans and dogs), where's her pack, which would care about Balto? If Balto accidentally got lost, he wouldn't hate his wolf mother, he'd leave Nome to find her, as well as his mother would find him, using her nose. Or if Balto accidentally got lost, the pack would make everything to find and return young Balto, using howl and especially nose. And he still would consider himself as a regular wolf.

If to assume the male husky and the female wolf loved each other, they'd live together in her pack (remember, the wolf pack in the original movie accepted Balto despite him being a half-breed), so even if the wolf mother died, the dog father would live with Balto in her pack. So Balto would be proud of his wolf heritage and considered himself as a regular wolf (because his father chose to love a wolf and to live among wolves and was accepted by wolves as the worthy one).

Even if he was alone and was forced to return to humans to save very young Balto, who had no memories about his dead wolf mother and hence grew among humans and dogs, Balto wouldn't deny his wolf side, because his supporting father would care about him and teach him with his own example that to love a wolf or to be a part-wolf is not bad or disgusting, so Balto would have totally different type of conflict. Another example of events — if Balto's wolf mother either grew up as a stray among humans and dogs and wanted to be a sled dog, training and prooving herself to others, or was raised by a kind human among sled dogs, so she ran in the sled team and fell in love with a male husky, Balto wouldn't have any conflict, because his wolf mother already overcame all conflicts, prooving own goodness and earning trust of humans and respect of dogs, so they both would live happily in Nome without any problems. So, the concept of Balto's mother as his wolf side doesn't work at all, it is broken in its roots on fundamental level and can't be fixed. What's about Aniu specifically? Well, I'll always say — since Aniu is the totem wolf deity, The Great Mother of all wolves, so the best way to introduce her into the lore is just to make her either a real deity or only a part of wolves' myths and beliefs. You know, the wolf goddess mother, who protects wolves and wolfdogs and helps to them to find and embrace their true self. The sequel could leave it open for interpretation, whether these spirits are real or not, as well as whether Aniu was the white wolf from the original movie or not (well, she obviously wasn't as we can see in the script, interview and storyboards of the original movie, where the white wolf was a male and a symbol of Balto's wolf side, true self and self-acceptance).

On another side, Aniu could have another role — symbolical. This idea came to my mind due to the interesting discovery — although the White Wolf and The Great Aniu are two separate characters, their design is identical. So, The White Wolf symbolized Balto's wolf side (his wolf father) and Balto's self-acceptance, Balto's pure and noble soul, i.e. the White Wolf is basically Balto's true self. While Aniu could be a symbol of Balto's mother and her choice — the husky, who had a free wolf spirit and fell in love with a wolf.

Hairy fuzz trails down his chest to his groin, leaving behind a trail. In his mouth are pointed, serrated teeth and for his nails are hard, black claws he covers with gloves. Lastly, he has four black tendrils- while his inner flesh is black itself, prompting the nickname.

-Personality-

Charismatic, serious and traditional in his ways with being a man and running his mafia. He is both primarily focused on his “business” and family. He switches between hardened mafia boss to loving father that provides for his family and fiercely protects them. But he also has his dark side with holding little to no remorse with whom his mafia takes out and devistates, seeing it as business only and giving no second chances to his clients.

His Russian accent is still strong and often makes him hard to understand. 

-Additional notes-

Upon his transformation, there had been a defect where he had gained both female and male attributes, but Black chooses to identify as male and binds his chest/wear masculine clothing. 

Struggles with reality, often snapping into phases where he believes it's the 1940s still.  

Black has been in multiple affairs, craving the touch of a partner as he is often affection starved, 

Has overdosed twice on his former addiction to painkillers, refuses to take them currently. 

Is a family man, and will back seat parent other children.

-Back story-

Black was born into an impoverished family, being an unplanned and unwanted child along with his twin sister. Both were born female, and both would scourge the streets of Moscow for handouts. Their brother Edward, was locked away in the gologue- but before, he would teach his twin sisters to pickpocket and commit small crimes to sustain themselves while their mother paid little, to no attention them. 

Upon their brother being sent to the gologue for the crime of theft and murder, their mother had lost her means of having what little income she had. She resorted to selling the twins to someone who claimed to want them for labor purposes. Little did she know that he was a part of a secret military experiment, gathering test subjects to infect with the Faceless disease.

Many of the test subjects have succumbed to their transformations, often having killed themselves or their bodies going into shock. The military wanted to create super soldiers. Black and Ebony were both infected, being twelve years old at the time. Both would overcome the first trial of the disease and would successfully transform. Black would be experimented on and trained alongside his sister. It was after the transformation he would begin to feel dysphoria, and begin to identify as a male. 

As a young man, Black was separated from his sister and placed into the battlezone of World War II. After the war, he disappeared- attempting to act as if nothing happened as he morphed into a human man and made his way to New York city to start over. Once again he had nothing, could barely speak English, and found himself homeless. Black was exhausted of life, and with his PTSD and past haunting him, he attempted to end his life on the pier. Despite using a gun, his body morphed back into a faceless and he found himself still alive. 

It was then he decided he had a purpose, and found himself once again on the streets but this time taking hits and dirty dealings that no average man could. As he made connections and spoke with other humans, a few wanted the gifts he had to share in his new found strength. Those turned would be loyal to him, helping him learn as he built up his charisma and found himself surrounded by people. Over the years, Black would gradually build his criminal empire and take over the criminal underworld while giving his members the greatest gift money couldn’t buy. 

Currently he is still running his mafia, now a father and CEO of a designer clothing enterprise to serve as a front for his shadier business practices.

The Lux Protection Crossings

As Announced By Angel Gabriel

O

The Crossings Around The Attacked But Protected Little Goddess...

Span the Age of Unkarma and the New Appleversical Era of Karmic O

And They Span The Planes!

They are crossings of Human Attackers and Stalking Sinners...

And ALSO crossings of Attacking Divinities!

This Little Holy Mother Goddess's Survival is Protected BY GOD

O

The Living God Roxanne Crossed In 2019... He Died Unkarmically

Roxanne Anderton had been Intended by Sara Annwyl To Come Under Lux Protection and PHYSICALLY Survive His Incarnation's Suffering...

But that Holy Magical Protection could not FULLY reach him until the Attacking Angels could be Surpassed by the Divine Lux, which did not come to pass until Roxanne was in Afterlife and Diana's Power began to be weakened by the Battle of the Goddess Lux...

The Giant Knew Better

BUT The Oldworld Angels Were Most Blind

O V

The Stalker and Slaving Torturer Eleanor Tams Crossed in 2019

She was Killed by her most Suffering Victim, the Torture Slave Roxanne...

Tams was beheaded on Tregonning's Birthday

This Little Goddess discovered these events through communications with these Souls in Afterlife...

O O O

Both Eleanor Tams and the Suffering Project Monarch Slave Roxanne had Violated and Stalked The Holy Saint Sara Annwyl ENORMOUSLY

Sara had been trying to Get Help and Intervention to SAVE LIVES

Not only Her Own

But for Vulnerable and the Neglected Doomed and for INNOCENT VICTIMS

But The Impossible Efforts Were Obstructed By Fools AND THE EVIL

In The Land Of The Living...

O O

After 2019...

One After Another...

KILLERS were assigned by the London Gang to Hunt Sara...

Three Killers Died As A Result Of The Protection

One Shot Himself, Another Hanged Himself...

The Third Died In A Carcrash

These Deaths were brought by Angels

Holy Sara knows this from Vision and Angelic Communication and some Spiritual Contact with one of their Spirits in Afterlife...

In 2023 Holy Sara was informed that a Female Criminal Associate of the Prime Minister Boris Johnson had once again tried to Assassinate The Living Goddess... A WPR Associate, Female

Holy Sara was informed by the Archangel Gabriel that this Would Be Assailant met her crossing 'falling from a horse'... O

The MATERIAL Facts of these Spiritual Experiences...

Which are currently being communicated by the Possessing Angel

Will be confirmed, publically in Future

Amongst Humanity, On This Planet

Angels are Testing and Teaching Beings, Angels are REAL This Holy Mother Goddess is under a Spiritual Protection for Survival

Survival of Holiness and Innocence

She is Possessed by an Irregulated Fallen Rebel Angel...

To Bring World Understanding and Justices!

The Fullest Understanding COMES...

After the Departure of the Angel

His Influence Obstructs Confirmations of Bad Wolf AND Holy

And of Many Miraculous O Events O

O V

The Suicide of Deborah Orr came about as a result of the Lux Protection...

Angels brought Orr her Life's Conclusion as Orr had Failed Karma

Orr had been Attacking the Living Goddess with Tregonning

This Suicide was misreported as Death from Breast Cancer...

It is in these kinds of ways that the Old Angels have obscured the truth about events all around The Impossible and the Miracle of the Elephant and advent of the Apple Gods

This is a very Significant New Divinity under Angelic Protection...

And The Protection Of GODS AND THE GIANT

Because there HAS been a Long Conspiracy between the Old Moon...

And The Devil

Danced by Blind Ancient Unwitting Angels

Of Our Old Suffering World O O O

And that Conspiracy remains in its Final Ebb as long as the Lunic Angel remains in Influence, he is an Angel of Ancient Diana's...

O O

There Are Three Violating Stalkers Of 'Snark' Alliance...

They are all Hacking and Framing and Intending Harm to the Innocenti and they have been at work within 'The System', though what they do is Criminal...

One of them is the Major Criminal and Serial Killer Sarah Tregonning

These Three Snark Stalkers Will All Cross Karmically

Angels and the Movements of Refreshed Reality...

Will bring them the Just Conclusion to their Life Stories...

The Innocenti Goddess will be Spiritually Released

To Help All Witnesses And O Family With The Aftermath

And the MEANING

O

V

O O O

There are two other Karmic Crossings within the O Family which will come about as a result of Attacks upon the Holy Mother Innocenti...

One is somebody beloved to the Mother Goddess, she was a close friend and like a little sister...

She is Sonny O'Hare in The Impossible

Sonny has failed her Karma

Purposefully Endangering Her Holy Friend, Through Immature Jealousy O

And The Impossible IS VERY SIGNIFICANT REAL KARMIC O

Karmic Challenge Utterly Real And Valuable

The Valuing and Protection of Vulnerable Children and Innocents

These Announcements are brought by the Archangel Gabriel...

They are not 'Wishes' or 'Desires' of The God Innocenti

They are Prophecies and Guidances brought by an Angel

I have not told The Protected Sara Annwyl how her friend will Cross

She will not live to a Ripe Old Age

As a result of her Karmic Failure and O Behaviours

And her Refusal to take Responsibility Seriously

This is not the Goddess SPKing

It is the Angel!

O

There is a Stepfather who is a Woodsman

He has been Neglectful and Treacherous and Dangerous

Instead of Protective as in the Patriarchal Fairy Tales

He will cross over several decades younger than would have happened if he had Fulfilled his Life's O Challenges...

O is what the Gods call Karma

O is Real

God Brings It Through Angels

He is Gordon Carpenter in The Impossible...

He is also very beloved to the Holy Mother Innocenti

He will die of natural causes in two years time...

He would otherwise have become a Nonagenarian

O V

This is ACTUALLY How Life Works! Life is a Challenge of O!

Life and Death are Meaningful

Death is not necessarily a 'Punishment' but it should be JUST O

Just as Births and Afterlives and the Path Inbetween should be JUST

O O

And this is a Unique Missive regarding Life's Meaning...

Because it is brought by a Testing Archangel O O

Through a Possessed and Conduit Attacked Living Goddess Innocent

Around whom ALL HUMAN Destiny is being Aligned...

By The Holy Gods In Paradise

O O

O

It is unclear to this Living Goddess whether or not the Algerian Killer will also cross over, but he HAS also Stalked the Living Goddess...

The Algerian Killer is also called The Algerian Reader

He is also called Shivers...

He is an Active Serial Killer of Little Children and Women who most extraordinarily and extremely Tortured, Raped, Terrorised, Hurt and Attacked the Little Enslaved Rex God when Rex was a Captive Slave...

Called Roxanne

All Cruel Attackers and Violators Of The Enslaved Living Goddess Roxanne

WILL have their Soul Journeys affected by their Actions...

The Lux Mother Goddess is NOT an Attacker or Violator of Roxanne Anderton

SHE is an Innocent Victim

O Strong Spirit and Bravery

A Victim Of The Whitehall Paedophile Ring Of Old United Kingdom

In the Post World Wars Era of Hidden Holocaust, 21st Century

O O O O O

So

So It Goes O O O O V

These Communications are not to be misunderstood as Angelic Declarations that all Human Physical Death is a Punishment for Evil...

Or that people die young because they have Perpetrated Wickedness!

Neither of those things are the case!

Destinies and Life Events are MEANINGFUL and brought by Angels

They are brought for the Learning of the Human Soul

The Learning Of Your Wisdom Upon Soul Journey O

Lifetime after Lifetime the Neverending O

O

O is not Easy, O is Hard

But The Soul is Eternal and The O Road MEANINGFUL

And Holy...

O

These are Lux Protection Crossings as described by an Angel...

They are deaths which are in the near future soon to come about or which have ALREADY COME ABOUT and they are unique and significant crossings, because they come about as a result of Attacking The Living Goddess...

And of Failing Hugest Most Significant Karma

The Meaning Of Your Life's Learning O

Despite his Extensive Evil Doing it may be that the Algerian Reader is doing better in meeting Karmic Wisdoms on his own particular O...

The O Is Unique For Each And Every Soul

Evil Doing is Punished in Hell

Sinners Do Not Thrive On O

Failing Karmic Challenge is not the SAME AS SINNING but they are interrelated O O

O

This Goddess Has COMPLETED KARMA

She Will Not Perish Under Persecution As Holy Living Souls DO At Bequest of Ancient Satanic Diana, because The Little Innocenti who stood up to Diana...

Has Vanquished That Evil Power, With God's Extraordinary Blessing

And Under Angelic Torture The Little Incarnate Holy Lux Innocenti Became a Holy Immaculate

O

O O O O

Chapter One: Errand Boy

Word count: 1,014

Characters: Henry Stein, Boris the Wolf, Alice Angel, Y/N

Masterlist

A/N: this is the first chapter of my Bendy and the Ink Machine fic! I’ve been thinking about this for a long time and I’m excited to have finally finished this first chapter! Hopefully the next chapter will be out soon. I hope you like it!

How many of these cutouts are there? I’ve already gotten rid of ten; how many more do I have to destroy?

Henry wandered back through Heavenly Toys looking for Bendy cutouts. What Alice wanted, she got; anything to get out of this place. Everything here felt wrong, like he was being watched. He finally stopped near a Little Miracle Station and started swinging at a cutout leaning against a railing when a voice spoke up.

“What do you think you’re doing?”

Henry stopped mid-swing, jerked back, and whirled around to see a figure standing half in the shadows. She held an ax in one hand and had a length of rope slung over her left shoulder.

“I’m following Alice Angel’s orders. I just want to get out of here.”

“We all do. Alice told you to destroy these?”

“Yes. Is that a problem?” When the woman stepped forward, Henry could see that she wasn’t in shadow, but was actually half covered in ink, causing him to take a small step back.

“If you’re not afraid of the Ink Demon, then no; I suppose it isn’t a problem. You seem busy, so please, continue. I won’t stop you.”

She had a strong stare that dared him to remain still, so he backed up another step and turned around to continue destroying the Bendys. When he destroyed the last one, the speakers crackled to life and Alice’s voice sounded again, “Ah, now that was fun! Oh, but I forgot to mention... he hates it when I do that. I would hide if I were you."

“She’s right, you know.” The woman swung open the door to the Little Miracle Station, “Get in. Now.”

With dark tendrils starting to creep over the room, Henry followed her instruction. She closed the door immediately after and moved swiftly to an ink splatter and sank into it, hiding the parts of her that weren’t already covered in the ink. They both held their breaths as the Ink Demon stalked through the room, looking around at the remains of his cardboard likeness before continuing on to other rooms, the dark tendrils disappearing with him. A few moments later, Henry tentatively stepped out and looked around for the woman.

“What else have you been doing for Malice?”

“Malice?”

“Well she’s not exactly Alice, is she? That’s what she’s been called since the studio fell apart for good.”

Henry nodded thoughtfully before answering her question, “She had me find extra parts in gearboxes, get power cores, and collect thick ink from what she called the ‘Swollen Ones’. I don’t really understand why, though. I’m just trying to get Boris and myself out of here.”

“You found another Boris? Interesting. I haven’t seen one in a while.” She said this more to herself than Henry, then continued, addressing him. “Who are you? You look almost familiar somehow.”

“My name is Henry. I used to be an animator here. But I left thirty years ago. I only came back now because Joey asked me to.”

She grimaced at Joey’s name, but stuck out her clean (or, rather, less inky) hand and replied, “I’m Y/N. I was a mechanic here. I started a few weeks before you left; I think we only met once or twice.”

“Y/N, what can you tell me about what happened here? Nothing is familiar to me anymore.” By now, the pair had made their way back to the lift where Y/N’s harsh gaze softened at the sight of Boris. They got in together and started back towards level 9.

“It’s a long story, and none of it is very happy. The basics are that Drew went nuts after the cartoons became less popular and ruined everyone’s lives trying to keep it relevant. Most of us became ink figures, but a few were something else; like Susie and Sammy.”

“And you?”

“And me. I don’t know what makes me different, though. I just worked with the pipes and followed Thomas’ instructions on the machine. I don’t think I was even supposed to be here, honestly. I quit about a week before I was trapped here.”

When the lift stopped on level 9, Y/N stayed with Boris and Henry headed back to the door to return the ax. Once he did, Alice’s voice filtered through the speakers again.

“The disgusting wretches have wandered my halls, have gone unchecked! They’re trying to drag me back to the darkness! Don’t let them take your angel!” Inky creatures were bursting up from puddles, quickly sent back again as Henry beat them away with his pipe, “Purge them one by one! Smash them into puddles! Kill them!” She sounded manic now; Henry just kept swinging away as more figures popped up, followed by the Butcher Gang. All the while, Y/N inspected Boris while they stood safely in the closed lift. Both of them knew what was happening, but there wasn’t much they could do, so they just stayed put. After a few moments, the sounds of fighting quieted and Alice spoke again, sounding much more calm.

“So quiet. Like a welcoming grave. I like the silence, don’t you?” Henry returned to the door and the twisted toon gave him more instructions. “I hate leaving work unfinished! Fortunately, I have you to pick up the pieces. But you’ll have to go even deeper. Down, down, down into the abyss. Take the lift down. Say hello to an old friend. Sending you a little present. A little firepower. Take good care of it. It belonged to someone very special.” When Henry looked to the left, a Tommy gun sat there, waiting for him. When he tried to pick it up though, it melted away into the ink. “Oops. I forgot. It’s a little hard to get a hold of. Oh well. Better luck next time.”

Henry returned to the lift where Y/N and Boris stood staring each other down. When the lift started moving down, Y/N’s concentration broke and she looked around again.

“Where are we going?”

“Down. That’s all I know.”
