DCTL Graphic novel is.. not worth it.

Okay so I know we’ve all seen some leaked spoilers of the graphic novel and some people have been receiving them early and let me tell you.. it’s not worth it. I myself haven’t gotten it yet cause it’s still being shipped but atp after I’ve seen what people have told me about it and the spoilers I wish I never preordered it. I’m telling you all please please don’t get it it’s not worth it and please just go and buy the original novel like is accurate and has 10/10 writting.

I know I shouldn’t judge even if I haven’t read it all but I’ve seen enough spoilers to see how poorly done it is, you can already see that the artist have ignored so many of the important stuff there and features on some of the characters it’s crazy. Let’s take Sammy as an HUGE example, buddy described him as very pointy. Like he has a pointy chin, pointy nose and even pointy eyebrows and it was very clearly described in the book but the artist just ignores it. Also Sammy is like 70 or something in the book no no no that’s definitely wrong, cause canonically he was 30 something in dctl. And also that the artist gave sammy an HUGE mask is just living proof that the artist haven’t even seen the games. Like I can’t defend this book no more im sorry😭

I also heard that it didn’t follow the lore exactly but im not sure about it since I haven’t got it yet but still. I’m very upset about it all and especially upset how the game devs just choose an artist who has literally no idea what the games are and literally haven’t even been paying attention while reading.

It crushes hardcore bendy fans who were excited from the very beginning for the comic and now it’s just disappointment.

If theres any bendy fan considering to buy the comic DONT

Buy the original Dreams Come To Life Novel by

Adrienne Kress.

I’m telling you, you will have much more fun and feel more excited to read the original novel with accurate characters instead of whatever dirt bag the graphic novel is‼️

Oh yeah one last thing, I think that were all allowed to ignore the characters in the comic if the artist are gonna ignore the features in the book, I think we all can just make up our own/continue using the designs we already have in our head/drawn instead of having to suck up the inaccurate designs whatever the artist has done for us.

I love the HatIM spinoff AU, and I ended up writing this. I hope it’s not totally off, but I’m pretty sure I made them more aware than you intended. Whoops :) Regardless, thanks so much for bringing this AU to where it is! I love having my heart broken by it! Hope you have a great day! 

Y’all.

Y’ALL.

This has without a doubt made my day, if not my week and the rest of the dang month. I’ve already read this fic like 3 times and it kills me more and more every time. I hope you all can take a moment to enjoy this incredible gift of a fic because it is an emotional roller coaster and I just feel so honored that someone felt so inspired to write something as lovely as this. 

I may not stop being floored for the rest of the day. I feel like I’m walking on air. <3

Thank you so much Star!!!!! You keep being an awesome writer!!!!! <3 <3 <3

-Also added credit where credit is due! Original HatIM AU belongs to @thelostmoongazer (BatIM of course belongs to TheMeatly, Mike Mood, and their affiliates!)

mondstadt characters and what instruments i think they'd play

part one of my genshin characters and what instruments i think they'd play series! part two / part three

notes: holy fuck mondstadt has a lot of characters. the 2.1 livestream has ignited my creative juices LOLOL this is also a modern!au and a crack fic kind of thing. bit of background, i'm cellist (tho i haven't played in like a year now,,, growing up things haha) and i used to play in a youth orchestra so i'm just going off of stereotypes of musicians :p

albedo

definitely plays the violin, you can't convince me otherwise

i bet he's never gone lower than first chair

has a superiority complex

keeps up with practice, hates it when people play out of tune/out of time/when other people play full stop

literally the perfect student

amber

recorder player

nobody believes her when she says she plays the recorder because she enjoyed it in year 3 (grade 2, i'm pretty sure, for you americans)

massive recorder nerd—don't ask her about her instrument or else she will pull a mary poppins and do a show-and-tell of every type of recorder she has, its purpose, retail price, the exact day of the exact hour of the exact minute she bought it, so on and so forth...

barbara

certified vocalist

sings in a church choir

has the voice of an angel so when our lord and saviour, jesus christ, rises again, he'll think he's still in heaven

a/n: christians, dont come for me im joking

bennett

yes he plays the triangle

can't play anthing else for shit

no, he's not a percussionist, he only plays the triangle

still likes to practice though (even if his part is only one note)

diluc

don't be fooled non-musicians, that's a viola in his hands not a violin LMAO

constantly bullied by kaeya for playing the godforsaken instrument (it's a musician thing - violas aren't as popular as violins)

tries to pretend he doesn't give a fuck but he always ends up caving and arguing back

diona

piccolo

only went through with playing the instrument to annoy other people

"who needs range when i have...... thehighestfuckingmusicalnotetoeverexist"

the note could be out of the human hearing threshold and still be out of tune

"you're new here, you wanna hear my—" "NO"

eula

guitarist

after gigs with the band, everyone thinks she's off to bang girls but she's actually gone to feed the cat at home

sticks up for her poor buddy diluc only to be hit with the "ew are those frets?" and "where's your sheet music?"

no matter, she will seek her vengeance

fischl

trombone player

super edgy and cool for being the only female trombone player in her section

has to deal with "tromboner" jokes and other dirty jokes but pretends not to hear them "for i, fischl, the prinzessin derverureggrgsf do not speak the vernacular of lowly mortals"

jean

plays the french horn

really friendly, hangs out with other french horns

the leader of the horn cult mum of the group

the person everyone goes to for help or to practice with

kaeya

would 100% play the saxophone

he knows careless whisper like the back of his hand

calls his saxophone the "bendy sex whistle™"

never practices his part and just wings it in rehearsal like a boss

klee

there's this famous piece called 1812 overture by tchaikovsky which contains cannons.....

need i say more?

lisa

flautist

elegant mfer, probably was marie antoinette in her past life

can think of 20 ways to commit homicide with her flute and not even a single strand of hair would fall out of place

will give you a pretty smile after the crime too

mona

clarinet player

is willing to kill the whole section just to get first chair

says her skills are because of natural talent but she actually practices really hard at home

one time, kaeya jokingly replaced her sheet music to one for never gonna give you up and she accidentally rick rolled everyone

noelle

tuba

the only tuba player who comes to rehearsal to actually learn something

has to control herself when the tuba next to her offers her a snack from inside their case

usually the one in her section who has to plan practice sessions because everyone else is just terrible

razor

percussionist

is somehow super skilled

his basic numeracy skills are out the window and he probably hasn't learned how to read sheet music but somehow still manages to secure his entrance

rosaria

joins the orchestra thinking she could learn the bass guitar

is instead roped into playing the double bass by kaeya and venti

has the arms of a bodybuilder after always carrying that absolute monster of an instrument

not like she didn't have them already methinks

sucrose

is also a flautist

she's the other flute stereotype:

quiet, reserved, a nerd

so cute and wholesome, too good for this world, must be protected at all times

venti

is a harpist

could play a simple gliss and the whole room would clap and give a standing ovation

has 1418973492 bars of rest until the next note, hence why he usually falls asleep during movements and misses his entrance but would never even think of admitting to his mistake

THE POOR PROJECTIONIST.

the queue probably went off, but not like i’d know what this stuff is... after that party with Daniel everything just went to shit. or it started going more wrong. that poor kid that... demon’s using.... and of course that.... that grinning thing. it’s just standing there... looking at me. i guess i should start at the beginning. everything was going fine in the studios, at the time there were only a few people. Joey, Henry, Wally, Sammy, and me. the studios was small at the time, but pretty good with business around here. but. something happened with henry and joey, all that man does is never takes, henry gives, but he never takes, he even stole the rights of the toons as well. and well. Henry was being drafted for war too so he just quit, i never understood what went down that day but it must of been the reason why Joey was so determined to be better than henry was, he expanded the studios, made a bunch of deals, hired a lot and i mean a LOT of workers, some of those being close friends of mine, one of them was inspiring to be just like me, his name was Buddy, he was thomas’s son. a good kid... i think it said something about luring it back. you all know who im talking about. i never once wanted to look for trouble, and im.. ungrateful that it keeps finding me. Joey summoned.... something else besides that unwordly thing. i didn’t see what it looks like but i felt it... it possessed one of the workers who was modeling for bendy’s movements. i wish i could remember his name but i can’t... i don’t know if it’s my old age or something else but i can’t seem to recall his name... i know he and wally and buddy started their own kind of little show to pass time around here, and then just.... that party came along and... christ. that grinning thing. it was influnced by that... that creature. it went on a rampage. and also... Sammy... he apparently got into the ink, he didn’t get poisoned or anything it was just one drop and yet... it turned him into something else. on top of that, daniel and his pals went missing along with dot. i think she got out of here but i dunno... and  then of course that other group that was here. that’s when i saw it beat up the machine, like that demon was angry... how do i know all this? im too damn quiet for my own good, they don’t even know when im watching, even when im right behind them... and that... thing that joey summoned. it got scared i think... wanted me out of the picture. it says it’s gonna make something of me. my body aches all over cause mister drew of all people beat the crap out of me, but i bet it was that thing influencing everything around here. my head feels like it’s gonna be ripped off if i can’t find a way to calm this headache... if i ever get out anyway.  just recently it got one of our animators, turrning them into something else. an attempted alice clone, apparently it said that they looked more imperfect than the other two..? i guess it can only be talking about susie and miss pendle... oh boy i hope thomas and buddy are okay... i haven’t heard what it did but it can’t be good. Wally’s also gone too, but it’s planning to lure him back here, mister drew apparently wants that grinning demon of his to be as perfect as possible, and that probably means to have it devour whoever was closest to it. as if that would make it look more like the cartoon... i don’t know. im tired. light’s running out so that might be my time to call it quits, plus that grinning thing left. and i hear it’s whistling, that thing’s coming back... ah well... i ain’t going down without a fight. im a big as a bear and as henry used to say, i hit like a train. i ain’t letting that thing get the better of me.

[inkdemonapologist]

Okay but I do actually want to know both the things you love and the things you could rant about from DCTL?

OH BOY UHHHHHH okay lets see, I'm gonna see if I can do the "add a readmore after you post it" thing and see if that'll keep it stable.......

But also, much like Sammy, I am incapable of shutting up unless you strike me in the head with a blunt object, so uh, forgive my wordiness:

THINGS I ENJOY:

- DCTL gave us Sammy's ink addiction and like, if you had asked me before all this "what would you most like to see in a franchise?" I would not have answered "one of the characters drinks ink accidentally and then discovers that he can't stop" but boy that sure is my favourite concept that I LOVE to see handled literally any other way than how the book handled it!!!

- I like what it added to Tom and Allison and Norman!! Like, it's not big twists on their characters or anything -- we already knew Tom felt he was doing the wrong thing, so getting to see his CRUSHING GUILT over creating the machine isn't New Information, but it's nice to see and understand more of him; for all of them I feel a lot more attached to them after getting to see more of them as people.

- Like 90% of the "I LOVE IT" category for me is how the book handled Joey, and Buddy's relationship with Joey. The way Joey isn't a Sinister Mastermind Who’s Just Screwing With Everyone but just manipulative in a more mundane way -- someone who thinks of himself as just the guy with the vision to call the shots; he wants what he wants and this is how he's learned to get it; he exploits people not through devious schemes, but just by offering them something that they want or need and asking too much in return, expecting their loyalty for his favours. And the way he interacts with Buddy, making Buddy complicit with him and keeping Buddy off-balance and insecure while making him a favourite and treating him as Special is just PERFECT --  gives a lot of content to kind of extrapolate off of when pondering what must've drawn the others in and convinced them to ignore the red flags. I was initially frustrated with the idea of Buddy not being an artist and jUST DECIDING TO LEARN TO ANIMATE ON THE SPOT ("I've never done this before but I'm sure I can just do an artist's job" is a weirdly common throwaway thing in media and as an artist iTS A PET PEEVE) but actually the way they use his plagiarism to make him trapped in a lie in ways Joey doesn't even realise ends up being a neat echo of other employees (coughTOMcough), who were involved in much graver sins but suddenly felt they couldn't object or they'd lose their one chance, just like Buddy. There's a lot here that I think is really great.

OKAY THATS THE GOOD STUFF, LET'S COMPLAIN ABOUT SAMMY:

- Uncomfortable Bigotry Vagueness that we all knew was gonna be in this list -- I dunno man, a guy committing a microaggression and getting startled and defensive when he's called out for it doesn't necessarily completely ruin his character I GUESS, but the way this was handled is just SO WEIRD AND VAGUE that it's uncomfortable and it doesn't seem to serve any real purpose. "Is Tom black?" is a question I actually have to ask because the text sort of implies he is while also dancing around it and apparently Word of God said he's not??? which makes Buddy's comment nonsensical???? And I mean, you could go that route, since Buddy wonders to himself if Sammy talks to everyone like this -- HE ACTUALLY DOES!! Even within the text of the novel, he uses "Joey" instead of Mr. Drew, which is consistent with his audiologs in the game -- but that makes the writing suggest "this character THINKS this guy might be racist but actually they're reading too much into it and it wasn't racially motivated at all, he's just a jerk!!" wHICH IS SOMEHOW EVEN MORE ICKY??? Anyway like yeah I guess it's not inconsistent with his character that while Sammy Lawrence may not have any specific grudge against minorities he has probably not checked his privilege or done the work to challenge his own internal biases, but “Your Fav Probably Contributes To Systemic Racism In Ways He Hasn’t Considered, As Do We All When Our Assumptions Go Unchecked” is still a wild thing to wade through in a fun story about demonic cartoons

- but yknow so is T H E   H O L O C A U S T

- Sammy's voice is wrong. I'm actually okay with him being a weird awkward asshole, I already kind of assumed he was and that's part of why I like him!! but there's so many places he doesn't quite... talk like himself? And not just in terms of word choice, like -- so in his monologue at the end, he's described as talking so quickly that his words are "tumbling out faster than he can speak them," which initially seems fine; like yeah, that's a Standard Scene we're familiar with, the person who's been Driven Mad With Insight becoming more and more manic as they try to convey it -- until I tried to imagine it and realised that Sammy doesn't talk like this. That's a really consistent quality I always notice about his voice; whether he's almost giddily excited in prophet mode, or he’s his irritated and overworked human self, or he's violently angry and his voice has that echo effect -- he always speaks very deliberately. He enunciates carefully. There's some circumstances where I'd buy this as showing that he's Not Himself, but I feel like those would kind of need to be in the middle of his transformation, not at the end of it.

- In fact a lot of the scenes with Sammy kind of have this feeling -- that it's not necessarily an exploration of Sammy as a character, but that he is filling a trope or archetype role here. Once he's fully transformed he excitedly describes the process as more of a mental compulsion, which is in contrast to his weird yeerk-infected behaviour when trying to get ink from Miss Lambert. Both of those scenes don't seem wrong on their own because they fit tropes we know -- but they feel weird when you try to fit them together.

- I also just in general am not a fan of the ink acting like a weird yeerk. It can be a parasite I guess but when it starts overwriting and puppeting people and crawling around to enter their body that's just a completely DIFFERENT kind of supernatural story and it’s not what im here for!!!

- THE FREAKIN!!! HE WILL SET US FREE!!!! WHY????????? SAMUEL LAWRENCE WHAT IS HE SETTING YOU FREE FROM??????? Sammy has No Motive for any of what he's doing, other than just Ink Made Me Do It. The whole thing that was INTERESTING about Sammy as a character is the contrast between this frustrated, ornery musician with no specific love for the cartoons he works on, and the manically devoted cultist he becomes. What happened in the middle there? What made him desperate enough to shift his mindset so much? "Something supernatural made him do things that don't benefit him in any way" is a very boring answer to this question!!! Susie was a victim who implies that her transformation has forced her to do things she didn't want to do, but we can still see her motive -- she wanted to be Alice, so she took a sketchy offer to try to get what she wanted. Even now, her violence echoes that goal -- to be a more perfect Alice. What did Sammy want? WHO KNOWS. Even in his ink-addled state at the end, we don't understand what he hopes the Ink Demon will even do for him, and in fact he seems to be responsible for creating the very scenario he's begging Bendy to reverse in the game.

- [sighs loudly into my hands]

- Overall I'm left wondering if the author just..... didn't like Sammy Lawrence? And I don't mean that in the sense of him being a rude jerk -- like, Joey is not a good person, but the author seems to be interested in him and in what makes him tick. There doesn't seem to be that same interest in Sammy. Sammy's role in the story is that of a monster, transformed into something murderous, unable to prevent or choose it. He's not a victim of anyone but the ink, no one had to manipulate him or figure out how his brain worked or what he wanted or what he feared or give him any reason to do the things he does -- ink got in his mouth and overwrote his personality. And we don't even get to see that change, not really. He starts out angry and defensive and continues being angry and defensive up until his very last scene, denying his ink-stealing but not really much else. We see all his prophetic sketches but we never see hints of this in him, we never see him start to act more excited and hopeful, we never see him seek out the demon he desires to please. Why do we never see Sammy struggling between his dismissive angry front and a building religious fervour he can't quite suppress? We don't get to see any of the in-between. There's no interest at all in why or even what it looked like as Sammy became what he became, when, to be honest, I suspect interest in precisely that is one reason he's such a big fav.

- It's funny, in a "cries into my hands" kind of way, when Sammy is just knocked in the head while monologuing and immediately removed from the story without further mention, like...... that sure is the pattern with him, isn't it, he just tries very very hard and never actually gets to matter, but it also fits right in here, too, in this book that doesn't want to think about his motives -- he rambles nonsensically, explaining nothing, gets one trademark phrase, and then is hastily removed so the story doesn't have to think about him anymore.

...................I think that's most of it.

...

Y'all............ I'm not ready for Sent From Above.......... I'm just not.... I'm not emotionally ready...... like..... Sammy has to be in that right..... he’s Susie’s boss and she has that big crush on him..................................... I’m not ready

Defenders Countdown: 24 Days

Matt and Danny

    Another dynamic we can’t wait to see in the MCU is the one between our two resident martial artists. By linking the Iron Fist legacy to that of the Hand/Chaste, the Marvel/Netflix writers have tied Matt’s past-- and possibly present and future-- directly to Danny’s. How this will impact their time together in The Defenders remains to be seen, but for now, here is a quick look at their friendship in the comics!                  

    Technically, Matt and Danny first encountered each other in the first Contest of Champions series. This comic was part of the grand tradition of comics that exist solely to showcase superhero fights. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that. We love superhero fights.) Matt and Danny are pitted against each other as part of a globe-spanning competition between two cosmic entities. The most important aspect of this encounter is that Matt gets his butt whupped (literally) for being his rude self.   

Danny: “Shall we begin?”

Matt: “He can’t really be bowing to me-- can he? Maybe I can end this before anyone gets hurt!”

Danny: “My bow was a martial arts courtesy, Daredevil-- not a sign that I wasn’t ready!”

Contest of Champions vol. 1 #2 by Bill Mantlo, John Romita, Jr., Christie Scheele, et al.

    Later, in Iron Fist vol. 1 #11, Matt and his girlfriend Heather Glenn have a brief cameo in which they admire Danny’s mad parkour skills from afar. And later still, Danny returns the compliment (his actual parkour skills fluctuate immensely, based on whether the writer is making use of his PTSD-rooted fear of heights).

Danny: “Heart of the dragon! The other heroes-- Spider-Man, Daredevil-- they make it look so easy!”

Power Man and Iron Fist vol. 1 #71 by Mary Jo Duffy, Kerry Gammill, and Christie Scheele

    However, the face-to-face encounter that is generally treated by the narrative as the first takes place in Daredevil vol. 1 #178. In this issue, Foggy hires Luke and Danny to serve as bodyguards for Matt, since the law firm has been engaging in some dangerous cases and he’s worried about his partner’s safety. Matt is less than happy about being saddled with the Heroes for Hire, and spends the whole issue trying to elude them. This leads, eventually, to a head-on confrontation with Danny... and the most polite fight ever.  

Danny: “I warned you. Hey! Not bad!”

Matt: “Son, I don’t want to fight. But if it’s the only way to get past you-- I’ll try to make it quick! Missed! You’re pretty good yourself.”

Danny: “Thanks!”

Daredevil vol. 1 #178 by Frank Miller, Klaus Janson, and Glynis Wein

    (We’ve always loved Matt calling Danny “son” here. Danny is still in his early twenties at this point, but Matt isn’t that much older.)

    This dynamic becomes characteristic of their friendship. While Matt has alienated most of his friends at least once, he’s nearly always remained on good terms with Danny, and the two have always shown immense levels of respect and good feeling toward each other.

Luke: “You know what ol’ Hornhead’s problem is, don’t you? His face is redder than ‘is tights ‘cause that mama beat ‘im up!”

Danny: “Come on, Luke, be fair! Daredevil is one of the most capable, honorable men I’ve ever met. I like him.”

Power Man and Iron Fist vol. 1 #77 by Mary Jo Duffy, Kerry Gammill, and Bob Sharen

    In the beginning, this could be explained away by Danny’s tendency to see the best in others, and Matt’s skill at projecting a professional, put-together appearance in front of strangers. But it persists long after they’ve really gotten to know each other. 

Matt: “Danny Rand is Iron Fist. He and Luke Cage used to run Heroes for Hire. He would never betray me... So what the hell is going on?”

Daredevil vol. 2 #87 by Ed Brubaker, Michael Lark, and Frank D’Armata 

    Matt and Danny’s friendship has mostly happened off-panel (they team up a lot, but have had almost no on-page bonding scenes in all the years they’ve known each other), but possibly the most significant moment in their history is Danny’s time serving as Daredevil. Initially, this identity hand-off is neither of their ideas. Danny is hired by Vanessa Fisk, via a secondary party, to operate as Daredevil while Matt is in jail. Danny thinks he’s helping Matt by protecting his secret identity (and assumes the client is Foggy trying to be sneaky), but in fact, Vanessa is messing with Matt. When he discovers the truth, Matt escapes from prison and sets off after Vanessa-- but only after asking Danny to keep wearing the costume. After all, having another DD running around is useful, and his identity can use all the protection it can get.

Matt: “You’re sure it’s not a burden? It could be more than a few weeks...”

Danny: “Burden? Matt... it’s been an honor. In fact-- as terrible as it might sound-- I’ve enjoyed it. Getting out in the world again, kicking some guys in the face... Sometimes we get so wrapped up in our own drama we forget we’re not alone on this stage. [...] I can carry the weight. I’ll keep wearing your suit...”

Civil War: Choosing Sides by Ed Brubaker, Matt Fraction, David Aja, and Matt Hollingsworth

    Danny continues acting as Daredevil-- unbeknownst to most of the superhero community-- throughout Civil War, pretending to be Matt, and even getting locked up in his stead. Later, after Matt has sorted out the Vanessa situation and returned to New York, he and Danny team up to battle the Hand. 

Matt: “Danny and I don’t even have to speak. If she wants Izo stopped, that’s good enough. And he can tell just from looking at me... I’m ready for this now.”

Daredevil vol. 2 #115 by Ed Brubaker, Michael Lark, Matt Hollingsworth, et al.

    And of course, when this same Hand battle turns into a serious case of demonic possession, Danny is the one to make the big final play and chi punch the demon out of his friend.          

Danny: “I’m real sorry it had to come to this, buddy. It’s nothing personal!”

Beast/Matt: “Is that all you have left, Iron Fist? Did you really think the last of your pathetic chi energy would be enough to defeat me?”

Danny: “Honestly? Nope. But y’see, that’s the thing about chi-- it’s a life force. That which destroys can also create. The blow wasn’t meant to harm you... it was meant to heal. Wakey wakey, Matt.”

Shadowland #5 by Andy Diggle, Billy Tan, and Victor Olazaba

    Their closeness, however, is belied by some entertaining discrepancies. For example, it takes an absurdly long time for Danny to learn that Matt is actually blind.

Luke: “You can put that down. He’s blind.”

Danny: “Oh, he really is blind. I thought he was pretending because of all the heat on him.”

Daredevil vol. 2 #38 by Brian Michael Bendis, Manuel Gutierrez, and Matt Hollingsworth

    Danny is sometimes portrayed as a bit of a space cadet, but this also feels typical of his friendship with Matt. They have history, they’re close, but ultimately, they’re work friends.  

    At this point, we know next to nothing about what Matt and Danny’s relationship might entail in the MCU. All of the evident connections so far involve elements surrounding the two characters, rather than Matt and Danny themselves. The Iron Fist’s history of battling the Hand aligns with the Chaste’s identical goals, meaning that Stick could possibly have had some contact with-- or at least knowledge of-- K’un-Lun, and Danny’s predecessors. Madame Gao has shown a personal interest in both Matt and Danny-- possibly for Hand-related reasons, possibly for other reasons that have not yet become clear. And of course, the very first batch of set photos leaked from Daredevil Season 1 included this: 

    The Rand logo was never actually shown on-screen (and ended up looking much different than the actual logo used in Iron Fist), but that doesn’t necessarily mean this plot point has been abandoned. If some Rand Enterprises negligence was responsible for Matt’s blindness, The Defenders would be the ideal place to reveal that information-- and it would be an interesting element to add to Matt and Danny’s dynamic. At the very least, they could rant about Rand Enterprises together. 

    Matt and Danny are also the two most intensely trained martial artists on this team (Danny’s level of training far surpasses Matt’s, but that’s not saying much-- his level of training far surpasses pretty much everybody’s). While Luke does have some kung fu knowledge in this universe, he’s essentially a bruiser-- as is Jessica. Matt and Danny are going to bring the necessary cool flips and ninja action to this team-up, and we can’t wait to see them fight together. 

    Our final question centers around Elektra. The newest trailer included extensive glimpses of what is clearly a major showdown between Elektra and Danny. The situation we have here is this: Elektra’s new status as an extremely powerful weapon for the Hand, paired with Danny’s reaffirmation of his role as the Iron Fist and the destroyer of the Hand, and Matt’s predictable desire to save Elektra. While Danny fully understands the Hand’s power to ensnare innocent people, thanks to his experiences with Colleen, we’re still wondering if he and Matt might disagree about how to deal with a foe as dangerous as Elektra. ...But hopefully not enough to get in the way of their friendship. They need to be friends. They both need all the friends they can get right now.

Anti Knight Bendy Fan fic  (JOKE!)

Warning Fan fic I do not own Bendy and the Ink machine..

Act 1 "The show must go on?"

The Studio is buzzing with Life and creativity but sadly quaility comes with a price! The funding for the popular Ink Deamon known as Bendy as been running dangerously low for quite some time now. Henry one of the co founder of the studio has attempted everything from merchindise,cereal box covers,even haveing to give people the horrid pink slip. Sadly not enough money was coming in to keep up with the tyranical needs of currancy. Wile this was going on in the delightful world of Bendy and his gang,

"Gee I hope things work out for the best."Exclaimed the worried devil, Bendy was never a well desighned charecter his structure small and simplistic easy on the eye, Only made from 2 colors, Black and White as the rest of the gang.The Angelic counterpart of Bendy rises to his side her form slightly curvy with the same simplsitic style only had remorce and symapthy to offer. "Henry will know what to do he has been threw a lot and so have we...we will find a way to continue the show. "It must Go on" as you always have said before...Right?", Alice's cute like face forms a disgusting heart crushing frown not knowing what to say next. Among the Gang is the silly Boris The wolf his desighn is slinky and not as furry as one would belive a wolf to be but for a cartoon style they live in every day one can easily tell he is canine like, Boris was not part of there worried conversation as he enters there blank page. "Hey, Hey, Hey yall..Whats the frown for turn them upside down!, You dont want your faces to be printed like that when we are in the show room do you?" Happily spoke the wolf. "Well the thing is Boris...We may not have work for awile if things keep hitting the fan like a dart to a board" Said the Small Devil. "Oh Dont be like that!" For a Angel she could hit quite hard and if it was not for the fact of having only 2 colors to there page Bendy would have shown a bruise. "OW!! What the H-E-double hocky sticks ALICE that hurt!"Yells the frisky demon as his tail is in a agrivated zig zag shape.

The blissful wolf Smiles as he explaimes that Henry is working out a multi partner deal to add new animators and ideas into the show to help bring it back to its former glory,As moth to a flame the crew grew atractive to the idea of being back in show biz as soon as they can! "He said we will have new colors,Animators,Objects and even a new style of drawing for us!"As Boris lists everything Henry promised Bendy cant but help feel guilt and a sickness in his stomach for quickly leaving his old form and home for something vastly different. "He...hey Boris ..Buddy, Pal..Chum dont you think..this may be to much?..Like we are going to completly change we may have our own emotions and souls but we would look,sound and be different...can we do that this easily?" Bendy's tail curls up into a question mark as he glances over at Boris and Alice for a response. Alice with a small cheeky smirk replies with gloat and cheer "Bendy dont worry we just have to Act our parts out we wont forever change, Our looks , clothes and style may but we will always be partners right Boris?" "Right!!" Replies the wolf. Bendy with a reashured sigh smiles and nods "Okay then....If you are okay with this then I am!" With excitement the three begin to day dream what new changes will happen in the near future!

  The Real world Henry has brought in a few Animators and has new unique tools for better animation quaility and desigh. The process of setting the new stuido up took a week to properly set things up from the gear to the very equipment that will be used. Henery Looks at his crew one last time before the change he gives them a smile as he takes a picture with them his tired eyes lit with joy, The Devil happy and making bunny ears with his hand above alice's halo as Boris hugs them both all excited for what is about to happen next.  The first five days was brutal on everyone working day in and out testing voice quaility,Animation,Even new styles Poor bendy was the test subject to it all! This little creature went threw many art styles ranging from Jappense Manga, To big headed Trash art Even a reatro style pixel game but none fit sadly. When all hope was lost Henry figuired out why none of the new styles worked it was because they had no Plot! The Entire crew did research and brainstormed what children today were interested in, They liked Knights right?...ya..They also like space...Why not both? Then the birth of The Anti Knight! A heroic Devil Knight setting aside his dark ways to save the angelic princess Alice with his squire Boris! The Plot was in action and so was the crew in the real world as they set forth on this new idea and plan.

What was made first was a Beautiful HD background having a dark color with bright glowing sighns and lights flashing behind the sun a beautiful yellow and organge burning bright as rubble,dirt and trash littered the ground a ruined landscape for a Loyal powerful knight to surpass and conqure! The next step is the new look it first started with Boris the Squire, His small fragile body changed into a thin mucle his overalls turned from rags to great bronze medal cleaned and polished to impress the ladies his gear consists of his musical instrument of choice a alchemy satchel set and a dagger at the end of the process his tail never stopped wagging! Now for the beautiful Maiden to be the Angelic Alice was next her looks changed to enhance her beauty 10 fold her pale skin now hinted cream with a small red blush as her eyes now own a lustful look her dress made from the finest silk in appearence as her skin was graced by a godess itself her long black silk hair reaching down to her shoulder as her halo now hovers above her glowing brightly a Needy Boris Howl can be heard in the background. Finnaly for the Anti Knight himself Bendy under goes a unique transformation as his small 4 foot height increased to a wopping 8ft towering over any weak enemy in his way his mass was past a body builder and could easily bench press a weight lifting machine wile it was in use! His armor a beautiful gothic desighn were small frail details cover the edges of it in a neon glow as his massive armor covers his chest,shoulders,forarms,knees and shins he even owned a crotch plate as for style purpose he had a cloak around his right shoulder and around his waise to cover his rear and front his face and mucles exsposed to scare enemies away as his only gear and pride would be X-Calibur a massive 6 feet sword Pure metal with a leather handel it had a Final Fantasy (TM) buster blade appearence but the edge would have a Bright energy beam when a button was pressed! Now that everyone fits there appearnce in desighn now have to sound there role, Boris sounds of a small but strong Male determined for greatness, The amazing Alice sounds like a soft suductress, As the Anti knight a boastful knight Proud,strong and ready to save his princess in any moment!

 It was all set,The stage,The sound,The roles but it was missing its high point, its finish...its Villian...

With the desires of the best intentions from Henry but with the role of a wicked creature birthed new life onto the Page. "Levia Ethan!" I shall call him exclaimed Henry,Ethan for short. Ethan is Bendy's Counter in the role of Anti knight he was the antagonist the Evil creature that would send Bendy threw challanges and steal Alice but was yet to be known is when you are born with a wicked role one might have a hard time seaperating life from work. Ethan's form surpassed Bendy he stood as 9ft tall a foot above him his arms could easily crush stones and send gods crying his skin a dark abyssal black darker then the ink used on Bendy, His eyes had a pericing blue color to them but the most distinguishable part is his cold hearted stare he had on every moment since birth.

When Ethan was brought to the Page he was greeted by the NEW gang he took very high interested with Alice and her new curves, this noticable admiration slips past Boris as Bendy took notice and buts into Ethan's and Alice's conversation. "Howdy New guy Im Bendy you must be Ethan the new guy!..Lokie here we all got a new gig and all even new voices and getups but if you wanna make it in show buis.." Rudely inttrupted by Ethan his cold dark voice sends chills down Bendy's Spin. "I will end you Anti Knight....Once I have own the princess as my queen you will be my new rug..." In this line of work they get carried away once in awile with acting but this guy was a whole new level it was as if his life IS his role and this thought rushes threw Bendys mind like a rapid river and his happy exsprestion dies down quickly.

To be continued ..Maybe?..

P.S this is a joke between me and a friend it has horrible grammar,writing and spelling due to inside joke reasons o3o
