Whumptober 2024: "I Did Good, Right?"

Wilford wonders if what he did is right.

For @whumptober, @whumptober-archive

Commission Info | Buy me a ko-fi

+++++

The manor was silent.

Cold.

Empty.

Wilford knelt in the foyer, staring up the stairs that flanked the old white grand piano that was center stage. Blood splattered the piano red. Blood was everywhere, soaking everything, the stairs, the doorways, the floor, the chandelier – when Wilford looked down, there was blood on his hands, his clothes, it was all over him, and it was warm –

Breathing shakily, Wilford let out a sob. His eyes were locked on an arm, splayed out on the floor, coming from the living room. He couldn’t see the body it was attached to. He just saw the suit jacket sleeve, the blood dripping from the fingers, purple nail polished chipped and nails broken…

Arms wrapped around Wilford from behind, and though they gave no warmth, Wilford leaned into them all the same. He shivered, reaching up to cover one pale, grey hand with his own bloody one, and he cried. He broke down, covering his mouth with his other hand, as tears stained his face and carved through the bloody handprint over his mouth. “I –” He choked on his words, and leaned back against the body behind him. “I did good, right?”

One of the funniest things about Darkiplier is that if you interpret him as a manipulative villain like Markiplier intended, he's really fucking bad at it. Tasked with trying to trick YN back to his side he could:

1.) Actually attempt to use their shared history (presuming they are the DA) to lore them over to his side.

2.) Straight up lie about the circumstances to turn them against Actor (because things are already so weird that they probably won't question it).

But what does he go for instead?

3.) Lay on a table and communicate in vague, slightly ominous riddles.

Our man has the ability to bend time and be so powerful, but goes about it in the least effective way possible.

[neenthebean11]

a lesson in darkiplier's fucked up moral code

dark doesn't like lying (or at least he says he doesn't) but does it a lot more than he means to. He's as honest as much as politeness will allow with most things while talking to the other egos. However, he is very manipulative in other settings if it gets him what he wants. And with the other egos, he'll lie to:

pretend he's within tolerable parameters

keep the egos from massive amounts of despair or worrying (no he doesn't care about them where'd you get that idea)

put them in check if they step too far out of line

Dark will do a looot to get what he wants. Information about Actor, about some secret he believes someone is hiding from him, and- okay, well, it's mostly intel about Actor's whereabouts. He's not above doing anything. Kidnapping, stealing, threatening, manipulating, gaslighting; though he does see murder as a last resort. It's an option, sure, but only to be used when all other ones have been exhausted. Senseless, cold-blooded killing is baffling to him as he can see no reason why a sane sapient being would kill for fun. (Yes, this has caused tension between him and Wilford. and anti but thats a different story)

Legality in general means nothing to him. He does, however, refuse to jaywalk.

Because jaywalking is stupid.

[mothgodofchaos]

If you're familiar with Darks whole power of seduction maybe do a thing w a gender neutral reader where he recognizes them as the reincarnation of the DA that he fell in love with but the reader tries to reject him at first so he uses that on em? Its ok if not have a wonderful day/night

Memory

I'm not terribly familiar with the concept as it may be more accepted in the fandom, but I do have my own personal twist that I can share.

Darkiplier x GN!Reader, TW: hypnotism, manipulation, angst Words: 592

“My love…”

A memory pangs in the back of your brain, fleshing itself out as you turn around to meet his gaze. Melancholy and longing tug at his heart, looking at the one he thought he lost all those years ago. The one mistake he thought he could never go back and fix. Your face twists into disgust and horror as you gaze up at Dark’s face, a sneer crossing your lips as you begin to back away from him.

“Traitor. Killer. Bastard.”

“Darling, don’t say tha-”

“You left me in a mirror! For a century! You. do not. get to tell me what I can and cannot say.”

Anger bubbles inside you, outbursting at him as he tries to placate you. Memories and flashbacks that you have never experienced come flooding back, you remember everything. Your screams of agony at him, at the pain he has caused you, don’t begin to even scratch the surface of every bit of turmoil there is churning inside of you. Something inside you snaps, and instead of backing away, you begin getting in his face. An accusing finger jabbed into his cheek, forcing him back as his personal space becomes nonexistent. 

“You just expect to see me again after this long and expect me to be happy to see you? Are you out of your fucking mind!? Or have you been that way since you decided that I needed to go away in the fucking glass forever box? If you truly ever loved me, you would go back and undo all the damage you did to me!”

Something clicks in Dark’s head, and his eyes fill up with void. His hand tightly grips your chin, forcing you to meet his gaze.

“Alright, if that’s what you want… what else do you want, my love?”

Your tears stop as you look up at him, breathing heavy and with all the trauma trying to spill out of you. His grip softens as you pacify, crouching a bit lower so you can look at him better. It all feels as if it’s slipping away, recognizing him as the man you loved all those years ago again. The mirror never happened, you’re safe with him here. You wrap your arms around his chest as a smile slowly starts to appear on your lips. 

“There’s the one I love, my sweet angel mine.”

A pain in his chest stops him from fully enjoying the moment, guilt eating him up inside as he hides those painful memories back in the recesses of your mind, pulling the ones of soft love and belonging back to the surface. Satiating the demon inside him, feeding off your negative emotions until they hurt no more. There was no mirror, you’re safe here in his arms. He floods you with false memories of a proposal on Mark’s balcony under the starlight and fireworks, working alongside each other in the offices, retiring up to his cabin for vacations and getaways. 

“Damien… don’t go please…”

That name hits him like a sack of bricks, one he has not heard uttered once since the day he lost you. A name he swore no one would ever be allowed to call him again. Damien was everything that he promised you, and everything that died the day he made that mistake. 

“I’m right here, darling. My love, my forever.”

A tear rolls down his cheek as you squeeze him tighter, praying to whatever higher power that brought you back into his life to let you stay happy again. Happy with him. 

[yuckie-obsessive]

Did You Miss Me?

Remembered ADWM when Dark says, “Did you miss me? I missed you- very much.” And now I wanna make a drabble on it.

Maybe a little variation on what happens in ADWM. Thinking of making a new HC where he can’t touch you unless you give him permission or initiate it first. Of course he can ask for it or give vague gestures in hopes you will accept him.

Darkiplier x Reader (gender neutral)

Set up: essentially the same intro as ADWM, but a little more intimate. Sfw only tho

~★~

You had become extremely disoriented from the rough switch in atmosphere. The ringing that echoed within your mind was not helping either. Your date was no where to be found and neither was the stage.

“Hello, darling.” A disembodied voice greeted. Then a monochrome figure appeared in front of you, though it was difficult to keep eyes on him when he was surrounded by blue and red doubles.

He straightened at your distress and the visual glitching subsided slightly.

He cleared his throat, “I missed you, dear. It’s been quite some time wouldn’t you say?” He took a step forward, extending a hand, only for you to take a step back in confusion. He clenched his hand and let it fall.

“My apologies, this must seem rather forward. Though I must admit,” his jaw clenched, “I’ve grown tired of this perpetual game we’ve been forced to play.”

He straightened his already perfect suit and sighed, “It doesn’t matter… surely you must be aware of this cycle by now?”

You had felt rather caught off by the consistent, repetitive actions you had been forced to perform. You slowly nodded.

“Then let me further enlighten you,” he waved his hand to summon different visions of your adventure so far, even things that have yet to occur. “You must understand this was all his plan (y/n). I have simply disrupted this game, if only momentarily.”

“How did you-“

“This isn’t our first encounter. We have met many times in the past.” His expression shifted, but returned so quickly that you thought you imagined it. “It was brought to my attention that he decided to drag you along once again. A shame he continuously removes your memories of his games… our little meetings. Manipulating the plot to suit his needs,” his sudden harsh tone and odd shattered reflection startled you. He took a breath so steady himself and moved closer, now towering over you. “I can take you from this wretched cycle… to show you what we had together,” once again, he offered his hand.

“Please, (y/n)…” His voice grew strained, “Let me in... Let me be everything you need,” his head tilted to whisper softly into your ear. Dangerously close yet still refraining from contact.

You looked to his hand and cautiously moved to take it, but hesitated.

“I promise you this, your every need will be met. Your heart’s desires fulfilled… Let me protect you now where I couldn’t before. Let me amend my mistakes…”

You felt a great sadness from his words. Letting your naive trust get the better of you, your hand lightly accepted his.

The moment your hands connected, he rushed to embrace you causing you to gasp. He buried his face into your neck, reciting apologies and promises of loyalty. The air grew lighter, and for the first time since you could ever remember, you felt lucid.

He removed himself and held your shoulders. His smile filled you with warmth.

“Let’s catch up, old friend.”

Welcome Home (Darkiplier x reader) Part 5- A date gone Dark

(TWs: Mentions of drugging,Manipulation, Forced kiss, Yandere behaviour if you squint. Dead dove do not eat I think?)

You entered your room and sat down on the floor, slamming the door behind you. You were beyond upset at Mark, he’d been cancelling out on your get togethers for years now but the moment you did? Suddenly it was wrong.

Mark was allowed to push you aside and replace you as much as he wanted. Merely thinking about it caused you to clench your fists incredibly hard. But no more, no longer were you going to deal with that bullshit. Damien would never do such a thing to y- Wait, why are you thinking about Damien? Your argument with Mark had nothing to do with him. Maybe Mark was right. Going on this date might be a bad ide- Suddenly, a sharp, stabbing pain shot through your head, followed by a piercing ringing in your ears that made you squeeze your eyes shut.. You groaned and held your head in pain, stretching out your legs. You blinked once it stopped, feeling lightheaded. What were you thinking about?

Oh yes, Damien. You felt like you could go on for hours about how sweet he’s been to you. “You deserve somebody who won’t take you for granted..Somebody who could give you the world..” He’d told you. You didn’t want to think about Damien too much, but he just kept invading your mind, taking hold of it with his sweet words or his smooth voice. 

Your foot suddenly made contact with something, a deck of tarot cards. It piqued your curiosity so you picked it up and shuffled the deck before spreading it out. You picked up the first card, turning it over to reveal the seven of swords.

Deception.

You shakily place it down before picking up your second tarot.

The Devil.

The creature in the illustration looming over a chained subordinate kneeling to him. The room felt colder and the strange scar on your wrist started to burn again.

With a shaky hand you picked up your final tarot.

The moon.

Something was lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right time to pounce.

The pain jolted through your body again, and in a moments notice you've suddenly found yourself fully dressed for your date. You take a deep breath, trying to shake off the feeling of apprehension before meeting Damien. You couldn’t back out on him now. It’d be rude. What was the worst that could happen anyway? 

You entered the restaurant with Damien, taking in its magnificent glamour. You’d only really seen places like this in your dreams or just passing by. Damien pulled out a chair for you and smiled gentlemanly at you while you sat down. His charming demeanor made you melt inside while making you uncomfortable at the same time.

Damien sat in front of you, smiling charmingly while he poured wine for the 2 of you. You smiled at him. “I’m so glad I chose to come out here with you. It really takes my mind off the whole situation I had with Mark.” You said, taking a sip of the wine. It tasted odd and much more..bitter than it should be. You took another sip to confirm you weren’t imagining it. Damien smiled at you. “Of course. Anything for you. I could take you to the places you want to go..” Suddenly, your vision started to blur and you felt drowsy.

Your head started to hurt.

“I can especially take you to the places you don’t want to go..” Damiens grin turned sinister. You quickly shoved your hands into your pockets and made an attempt to call Mark with whatever remained of your strength. Damien stalked towards you. “There is nothing that you, Or he could ever do to stop me. You’re powerless now, little mouse..” He grabbed your chin forcefully and pulled you into a rough kiss. “Don’t worry, mon amour. You’ll never leave me again..” A quiet cry of panic escaped your lips before everything went dark.

Darkiplier Head Cannons

-  Capable of manipulating shadows –as well as people–

-  Can change appearance to look normal or like someone else

-  Shares Damien���s face not Mark’s

-  Isn’t actually a demon. Instead, he was made to be one.

-  Always wears a chain which Y/n gave to him

-  Knows how to play the piano but doesn’t do it a lot. As Damien, he loved playing and almost pursued a music career but he avoided it after becoming Dark because it reminded him of his past life. He’ll occasionally play piano for Y/n though because he knows they enjoy it.

-  After he meets Y/n, his style becomes more casual as in sweatshirts, sweaters, and t-shirts. He really only dresses down in front of Y/n which means nearly everyone else just sees him in formal attire.

-  Whenever Wilford asks for something from Dark, Dark plays a prank on him while also complying with what Wil asked.

-  Enjoys it when Y/n plays with his hair

-  Sometimes steals Y/n’s things to see if they notice that it’s gone. If he takes a book or something similar to that, he will leave notes or flowers in the pages.

-  Likes to turn the lights off and use candles instead

-  Takes things apart, like clocks, to put them back together

-  Hums to himself when he is upset. It calms him

-  He finds the sky, stars, space, etc. fascinating even when he was Damien

-  Hates being called Damien, but when Wilford slips and calls him that, he doesn’t correct him.

-  Enjoys being next to/holding Y/n because they are naturally warm while he is cool to the touch. Their heat is also comforting.

-  Has never been one for drinking ever since that night (wkm).

-  Because Damien was such good friends with Y/n (DA), Dark also has feelings for them but doesn’t show it. He treats them the same way as everyone else except for the fact that he would never intentionally hurt them.

[dinahdelightful]

I made a post about inhuman darkiplier so i decided to give you all my wilford hcs too— no offense but some of yall baby him that is a grown man who canonically is an adulterer and also shot a baby once lmfao

Wilford doesnt bend to reality— reality bends to him. Whenever nearby, people notice how much more colorful things are, more saturated and bright, and it feels like the music from parties follow them long after the show’s over.

Just like the bright lights, his personality is just as saturated— almost overstimulating. He’s almost as manipulative as Dark, but uses his talkative talents to get you to agree to whatever shenanigans he’s cooked up in his mind this time… or shushing a gun to make sure it won’t shoot. He’s very fond of guns, so they are too. They listen well.

Being in his general vicinity while partying gets you drunk by-proxy, dancing to the tunes far longer than you should be able to.

He’s a man with no past, constantly living in the present; his memory is spotty. When was the last time he asked Damien how Celine was doing? Weeks, or months? Or did he just ask an hour ago?

There’s no such thing as drinking to forget when there’s nothing to remember.

His gun is always on him, perfectly holstered somewhere unseen. Despite his general insanity, he seems to keep a level head, surprisingly not one for losing his temper very often.

But what happens when he does?

Although the colonel is long gone, his instincts from his time in war still show through— shouting commands and slamming his hands on things. He demands respect.

Still, his general demeanor remains relaxed, almost goofily charming. He’s made a name for himself; a famous interviewer. He’s got a nack for asking the right questions— although anyone answers truthfully with a gun in their face.

Death means nothing.

What does it mean to you?

Don’t say it with words, say it…

With words.

[vorepred223311]

In the twisted remnants of a world reshaped by a catastrophic multiverse experiment, Darkiplier roamed the shadows, embodying the darker aspects of human nature. His presence was both feared and revered, a master of manipulation with a sinister charm.

One fateful day, he crossed paths with Markiplier, the embodiment of light and positivity. Mark, always cheerful and optimistic, sensed the tension in the air. Little did he know, he was walking into a trap laid by his darker counterpart.

“Ah, Mark,” Darkiplier said, a sly grin spreading across his face. “You’ve always been so… naive. How delightful it is to see you here, all alone.”

Mark’s heart raced as he tried to gauge the situation. “What do you want, Dark? This isn’t funny.”

But Darkiplier only chuckled, his voice dripping with menace. “Oh, but it is. You see, in this world, the rules have changed. And I’m in control now.”

Before Mark could react, Darkiplier lunged forward, capturing him in a powerful embrace. Mark struggled, but the grip was too strong. In an instant, Darkiplier opened his mouth wide, revealing sharp, glistening teeth, and swallowed Mark whole.

As Mark descended into darkness, he felt the warm, slick walls of Darkiplier’s throat constrict around him. Panic surged through him as he realized the gravity of his situation.

Inside, Darkiplier reveled in his triumph. He rubbed his bulging belly, feeling Mark squirming inside. “You’re quite the fighter, aren’t you?” he taunted, his voice echoing in the dark. “But it’s no use. You’re mine now. Just a little snack for my darker desires.”

Mark gasped for air, the tightness around him making it hard to breathe. He could hear Darkiplier’s mocking laughter reverberating through the chamber of flesh. “How does it feel to know that your positivity has led you to this? A mere meal for the shadows.”

Time passed slowly, each moment filled with dread as Mark struggled against the inevitability of his fate. Darkiplier’s taunts continued, relentless and cruel. “You thought you could escape? You’ve always been so foolish, Mark. This is the end of your light.”

As Mark felt the process of digestion beginning, he fought against the despair creeping into his mind. He had to hold onto hope, even in the face of overwhelming darkness. But as the walls of his prison closed in, he realized that surrendering to the inevitable was the only option left.

In the outside world, the remnants of what once was continued to shift, but inside Darkiplier, the battle of wills raged on. The struggle between light and dark played out in a way neither of them could have anticipated, leaving the fate of both entwined in a macabre dance of survival and dominance.

The Egos as Magnus Archives Fear Avatars

Hello ego enjoyers, I'm once again back on my AU bullshit! Or simply just me rambling on about these character's funky little vibes and assigning them TMA fears they'd probably be avatars of based on nothing but vibes. Possibly their lore, too, if they have it. -Markiplier Egos-

Darkiplier, Avatar of The Dark: This one was an obvious choice! Dark(iplier) shares the same name/nickname as The Dark, and in my opinion it really makes sense with how his character is. My other two options were either The Stranger or The Web, but I decided to go with The Dark.

Wilford, Avatar of The Spiral: I thought that The Spiral fit really well with how Wilford is, considering the Spiral is all about the world not being as it seems and general madness, like how Wilford is.

Host, Avatar of The Eye: The Eye is a perfect fit for Host, because he can see everything going on despite being blind, and seems generally very knowledgable. I also think that The Eye fits with Host because he's a podcast host, and that's very similar to the case logs of The Magnus Archives.

Google, Avatar of The Extinction: This one fit mainly because of his vibes, and his "secondary objective is to destroy mankind" thing. Google just seems like a very Extinction-y android, and given the chance, I feel like he'd gladly serve The Extinction to fulfill his secondary objective.

Yancy, Avatar of The Stranger: Okay, I admit, this one was pretty much entirely based on his vibe. I didn't really think Yancy fit any one of the Fears exactly, so I went with The Stranger as I feel like Yancy sort of has its vibe? Also The Desolation for some reason.

Actor, Avatar of The Web: Even in his lore, Actor is very Web aligned to me. He manipulates, schemes, and is generally just an asshole. Actor orchestrated the entire night of WKM, and I think that's a very The Web thing of him to do. Also control is also very prevalent in his character.

Annus, Avatar of The End: If Unus Annus taught us one thing, it was that everything ends. I think that's all that's needed for Annus's explanation.

(Jacksepticeye, Crankgameplays/Ethan Nestor, MatPat and NateWantsToBattle egos under the cut)

-Jacksepticeye Egos-

Anti, Avatar of The Slaughter: Originally, I was going to do The Web, which I still think fits really well for Anti, but I thought that The Slaughter fit more. This is because Anti is, y'know, very aggressive, and even slit his (C!Jack's?) own throat in his first appearance.

Marvin, Avatar of The Eye: This one was majorly based on vibes, and I felt that Marvin had the most Eye vibes out of the Entities. He knows a lot about magic, too.

Jameson Jackson, Avatar of The Web: I was gonna go with The Eye initially for JJ. However, I thought with his theme in some of his videos of being a puppet connected by strings and being manipulated, I think he'd be an unwilling Avatar of The Web.

Chase Brody, Avatar of The Lonely: Considering in his lore he's divorced his wife and left his child, possibly killed them or somehow lost them... ("I lost the only two people that ever mattered to me") Yeah I think it's safe to say he'd be an Avatar of The Lonely.

Robbie the Zombie, Avatar of The Extinction: Another option for Robbie I had was The End, but with him being a zombie and all, I thought that The Extinction was just a better thematic fit I guess. I also was considering The Corruption.

Jackie, Avatar of The Corruption: This Fear is a little bit of a reach, but I thought that he had the vibes of The Corruption the most out of all the Fears. Jackie in my opinion doesn't really fit with any of them exactly, so I just went with the one I felt like for him. Maybe it's a representation of him getting "corrupted" by his hero work?

Henrik, Avatar of The End: He's a doctor, and has let his patients die before. Henrik is even called the "Doctor of Death." So I think that he's a good fit for being an Avatar of The End.

-Crankgameplays/Ethan Nestor Egos-

Unus, Avatar of The End: Two End Avatars in a row! Again, same logic as Annus being an Avatar of The End. Unus Annus was made to teach us that everything comes to an end, and to cherish the life we have.

Blank, Avatar of The Lonely: I think that The Lonely fits him well, since Blank is the manifestation of Ethan's depression and anxiety. I have a headcanon that he tends to avoid crowds and lots of people like the plague, so The Lonely is a good fit for my version of him too.

Mad Mike, Avatar of The Spiral: He sells drugs in ice cream, and some of those have to have to have some psychedelic affects. I think that he'd be an Avatar of The Spiral largely because of his drug business, and that he's probably somewhat crazy.

-MatPat Egos-

Mad, Avatar of The Desolation: Mad is insane, loves fire, and canonically (if we're calling William Afton in FNAF: The Musical MadPat, which I am) burned himself badly. I think he'd be a poster child of an Avatar of The Desolation. He'd enjoy watching something burn from the outside, knowing that someone's livelihood is being destroyed too.

The Detective, Avatar of The End: My memory of ETN is quite rusty, but I believe he died multiple times and came back once only to permanently die, right? I also get The End vibes from him in general.

The Hermit, Avatar of The Vast: I would've gone with The Lonely because he's trapped alone on an island in the middle of nowhere in the ocean, but because it's in the middle of the ocean, I went with The Vast instead. Hermit just kind of gives The Vast vibes to me.

-NateWantsToBattle Egos-

Natemare, Avatar of The Web: To be honest, I couldn't really decide on a fear for him to be an Avatar of. It was between The Web and The Vast, mainly. For him, I think it's majorly because of him being a siren and being able to control people if he wants to with his voice, and that seems very Web aligned to me.

Phantom, Avatar of The Stranger: Again, I couldn't really decide on one for Phantom. I thought that The Stranger fit his vibe the most, so I went with that. The other option was The Web, but since I already have Natemare as an Avatar of The Web I thought that Phantom should be an Avatar of a different Fear.

Bones, Avatar of The Hunt: This is mainly for my version of him. He's a revenant, constantly in pain and usually very angry. I think he'd like to take it out on others in a Hunt-like way, rather than a Slaughter-like way if that makes sense. His type of violence and killing isn't mindless, it isn't random, it's planned to hurt in as many ways as it can, to cause people the most pain before dying in an attempt to soothe his own pain.

Sharper, Avatar of The Flesh: I thought that he'd be an Avatar of The Flesh since in my interpretation of him/version of him, Sharper is a cyborg. I based that off the scene in the Take Me Anywhere music video where he has an injury with metal and wires and stuff under his skin, then I thought that he would work well as a Flesh Avatar since he might not like that he's (at least partially) still made of flesh and bone instead of fully robot or fully human.

Thank you for reading, everyone! Have a good day/night!

For your au does captain dark also gets bad endings where he gets decked in the face by engineer

Yes, I've decided that is possible, right now, because I love that idea. It's hilarious.

If cpt dark can throw hands, head engineer can throw hands too. Though unlikely due to his doormat personality...

We can see the pillow ending is that Engineer was eventually pushed to enact violence out of resentment of the Captain. Maybe in some other AUs he is pushed that far, but in a different span of time or method, too. Or maybe he catches onto how much of an asshole the Captain (Dark) is (whether only sometimes or all the time depending on the characterization being plural or singular- We as a viewer can be an asshole or a decent guy, so you can see either of those paths as Dark being an asshole or Dark being manipulative (or... a decent guy... I guess?)) And even better- in the ending of part 2 we see Engineer get violent with the captain. So by then, he's definitely convinced (whether it's true or not) that the captain is a bad guy. Adding my AU ontop of that is interesting, because in canon Engineer realizes the Captain isn't a bad guy, so in my AU it would be that the Engineer was (partially) deceived by this "Hero act" that isn't quite all true due to Dark's presence and ulterior motive. (motive being getting the warp core for the AHWM box, and whatever other multiverse power he might want for whatever AU reasons... a motive can change, too, I'd like to think Dark wanted to get rid of Mark until he realized this Mark isn't "really" Actor- not that he'd necessarily hesitate because of that- but that on top of him being Unable to kill him thanks to the paradox. haha)

I enjoy some darkhenge angst- the kind where they've genuinely become enemies over time. I mean, it's canon, both in ISWM (as explained) and in other adventures, except it'd be Actor and Dark instead. I haven't thought much of the idea of a pure bleak angst, but it's a really fun idea.

"Bad endings" is an interesting way to put it. I think Dark is already undead and exists metaphysically, unkillable, like every other character in this illusory theatric space. (especially Warfstache, the viewer, and Actor Mark- I think awareness/acceptance of chaos makes you more unkillable.) So, in that logic, Darkiplier can just... Respawn. I mean, we see it happen in ISWM... so my explanation here is kind of redundant, haha, it's not even AU- it's canon. Fun trope! But I do like to think about it in the context of my AU. I like to reminisce upon Homura Akemi when writing how Cpt Dark experiences ISWM.

(Au rant time, cuz I can't sleep easily.)

Basically, as long as the DA is trapped in the mirror, what remains of the Entity power corrupts him and also before from that.

Actor Mark saw him in despair like very desperate to get out of the mirror dimension, He "tries" to help him out, aww Actor Mark is such a big helper. Lol no he manipulated him also, by making him shake hands with Actor Mark. He offered a deal with the DA, omg how stupid is that accepting his deal, can't blame the DA he was desperate lol. Without thinking about its consequence it made it worse.

He just took the DA soul, he had him control like a puppet for a while. Made him do stuff like following Mark. I dunno the whole "ISWM, AHWM, ADWM" started.

And desperate measures in desperate time. Woah.. the house entity appears like what, There are still some remains the Entity. And uhm he asked the DA. "Do you want revenge? They betray you. Let that anger out". Making the manipulate also of accepting another deal.

Like bro is risking it. The entity fuses with him, like making them as one. The Entity is gone but the power is inside the DA and corrupts him, but he was fine at first but his slowly looks distorted and deformed.

You're asking where's Actor Mark? He left the DA hanging for a while, because he was taking some "business." Darkiplier I meant.

So he didn't come back sooner and time was messed up in the mirror dimension. So probably weeks, and months and years. The DA starts to look distorted and change appearance. Because it corrupted him.

(I need to make a design about that, and also the house entity too. 😭😭)

I genuinely love seeing portrayals of Darkiplier that are just straight up evil and cruel

Not that more synpathetic portrayals of Dark are bad or incorrect, I actually love seeing those and understand the nuance behind them, just that I love genuinely evil/cruel villains

Sure, his anger towards Actor is justified... but what if he was still manipulative and mean? He wasn't exactly being friendly or nice when we saw him in Date or Heist, he was being manipulative and trying to get what he wanted from the viewer
