#im never gonna trust you again

[tusswrites]

I am here to torment you with a half-baked, unfinished idea :))

SO, arranged marriage with Wonwoo and Seokmin.

Not at the same time, don’t be so silly that would be scandalous.

No what I mean is your parents decide that you need to be married to start producing offspring because all of their friends have grandchildren so you need to step tf up and pop some suckers out. So they put their noses out and bring back two dashing, wonderful options for you. Jeon Wonwoo and Lee Seokmin. Both of whom seem like perfect husband material on paper.

But you know better.

Jeon Wonwoo is one of the most self-absorbed cold hearted people you’re had the displeasure of meeting. He always seems to have a snarky remark ready and a boast to one up everyone. It’s a wonder he has so many admirers, minus the fact he’s ridiculously handsome in a way that makes it hard to decide if you want to smother him with a pillow or have him push your face into a pillow.

On the other hand Lee Seokmin is one of the loudest, immature people you’ve crossed paths with. You can always tell if he’s at an event as soon as you step into the room by the sheer volume of his voice and laughter and the gaggle of people always surrounding him to watch his clownery. Like Wonwoo, Seokmin is also insanely attractive in a way that has you at odds with yourself.

Anyway, so your parents tell you your options and that if you don’t marry one of them they will disown you entirely and you’ll have no-one but yourself to face the world with. You know they’ll do it too to protect their social standing so you begrudgingly agree

You meet the men separately of course and are reminded all over again of why you can’t stand either of them.

Wonwoo has you meet him at his work, in his office in a spare half an hour in his schedule to discuss the potential marriage. He’s supposed to be wooing you and convincing you to marry him but he’s just listing benefits as if you’re buying a car; tells you his monthly earnings, about all the properties he owns, the assistant he’ll hire you to keep you company, the events he’ll take you to once married. Nothing more than a business deal and you know that is all he sees the marriage as, a way to unite your two important families. That’s a marriage you never want.

Whereas Seokmin is once again entirely opposite, he takes you to a fairground and insists on playing all the games, riding all the rides, eating all the treats. He wins you stuffed toys you don’t even have the space in your arms to carry easily and dances like a fool every time you pass by the speakers dotted around with a dopey self-satisfied look on his face. You don’t get the chance to discuss the marriage at all and at the end you leave feeling sick and overwhelmed from all the noise and people at the busy fairground. He kisses your cheek and asks to go on another date when you have time, you weren’t even aware this was a date. And if this is how all dates with Seokmin will be, you really don’t want another.

After both meetings, all you know for certain is that you truly cannot stand either man and don’t want to marry either. But you don’t have any option. You have to make a choice.

And that’s all you’re getting :))

Love you bby 😘

and this my dear friends is why they tell you - DON’T MEET YOUR IDOLS IRL..

i fangirled over chee for far too long .. unfortunately befriended her and it’s the beginning to my own downfall because why THE FUCK AM I GETTING PLAGUED BY THIS IDEA AT 3 in the morning??

Not Only is he a bisexual icon but he also Cannot stop framing his demonic encounters as dubiously romantic without anyone or anything prompting him to

[reel-fear]

Genuinely so curious who Mike thinks is gonna be buying The Cage or the new DCTL GN bc with the way he tweets as far as he's concerned, it's not gonna be:

The queer people he has actively admitted he will never show any representation of in the games.

2. The POC he has actively fought against representing in his franchise. [Who he also mocked for thinking they would be represented in his franchise]

3. The Bendy fandom which has always been concerned with topics of diversity esp in the sense of queer people since its creation. Who he has responded to really poorly esp in regards to the GN.

4. The fans who critique him. [He blocked me for doing so lol]

5. His fans in general who he tweets about like this currently. [He's being vague about why people were mad at him or sent him 'nasty messages' because if you actually looked into why you'd see he was in the wrong. Either way, a very hateful way to speak abt ur own fanbase.]

Reminder while Mike is trash talking his fans he has always treated them rather poorly. The fans who won the fanart contest for Chapter 5 never got their posters actually in game due to it being rushed. Not only was chapter 5 a big slap to the face story wise, but it was literally so rushed he couldn't be bothered to add in the art his fans gave him for his game FOR FREE. [Meatly blames this on a crazy timeline, reminder him and Mike are the literal ceos of this company. The proposal of future updates here is also pretty cruel considering Mike nowadays happily admits he corrupted Chapter 5's source code and therefore literally can't update it At All currently. Because he is a moron]

At least they got to be in Boris and the dark survival, and by that I mean that was the Only game they got to be in so far, isn't that just treating your fans like you love them? Shoving their hard work into a spin off game almost nobody has played or addresses much. [Hell, who knows if with the Lone Wolf rebrand they'll even stay there. In which case they'll be in None of the games, only in the credits of BATIM]

6. The Bendy fans who just generally disagree with him on stuff. Like the new ink demon design where there is literally a public poll showing people generally prefer the old one.

7. The Bendy fans who can see he is actively lying to them. To their fucking faces.

He says this has always been the case, but screenshots and links to tweets regarding the books being canon prove it was not. Does he really think bendy fans are stupid or something? [Unless he's admitting here he lied to Kress when he told her the books were canon which sounds worse!]

8. Anyone who doesn't like the idea of giving money to a guy who laid off tons of employees then afterwards thought it was a great idea to express his anti-union views! Also brag about how good of an employer he was, according to his employees, he was not!

So in summary; Mike is an awful person who has not learned anything from the awful things he did. I will not be purchasing The Cage because, combined with this and his absolute refusal to take any kind of critique or see any differing interpretation of his franchise, I have no reason to think my problems with the franchise will ever be addressed or fixed. I probably will pirate The Cage along with any future Bendy Products [Including the movie] and will do my best to avoid giving it any kind of monetary support. Unless this changes any time soon, I can't see myself making anymore positive Bendy posts soon.

Mike has just managed to make it so hard to speak positively or optimistically of this franchise when he's so willing to broadcast how little he cares about it or its fans. I'm at the point where I refuse to pull any of my punches with my problems with it. What's the point of trying to play nice with my critique when either way the people creating it don't care?

So with this post, I want to invite anyone who feels similarly about the franchise to tell me, make a post or send an ask talking about how all of this makes you feel. It may not change how things are, but genuinely seeing other people share my feelings of anger makes me feel better. It feels nice to see when other people share our same concerns and worries. I'd also love to know if anyone else thinks they'll be avoiding purchasing Bendy products over this.

I'm not forcing anyone to participate in it nor trying to say anyone who doesn't supports mike but genuinely maybe if we can collectively decide to boycott things like the movie, graphic novel and The Cage... It might at least make the bendy devs acknowledge how much they have destroyed their own fandom's faith and trust in them.

The way Mike tweets about his actions like he had no control over why people were mad at him at least proves to me he takes NONE of it back nor regrets it. If you didn't know about his actions and only went off his tweets, you would be led to believe Mike has been needlessly picked apart by fans over things he couldn't control [or in his own words, had his words twisted and taken out of context]. That is not how you speak about your actions if you have actually learned better from them.

anyway, that has been my bendy dev callout post. This is an open invitation to anyone feeling similarly upset about the way the franchise is going to talk about it. It's genuinely nice to see how people feel about this and the more we talk about the more it's likely the bendy devs are forced to address our concerns. I don't think they will but hey, that's why I'm not gonna support them with my money anymore nor am I gonna be nice to them in any content I make critiquing Bendy. I mean I'm also basically making this post just in case anyone asks me Why I feel this way towards to bendy devs/as a way to respond to anyone who thinks I am too harsh in my critique in the future.

As always, it seems the best part of Bendy isn't actually anything about canon but about what the fan's are creating with the ideas Bendy failed to do anything interesting with.

Also the books, the books slap.

"your f/o understands-" i don't know if he does actually, but by god he tries his best anyways. and sometimes he gets it and other times he doesnt, but either way he will stand by me and support me in it! ... i suppose supporting is a type of understanding in its own right, though
