#no that isn’t bendystraw

[kitocrystal]

Checking out other Quest AUs as I wait for my will to come back to continue with Inky Mystery.

(The conflict has not let down yet and I’m starting to feel dread)

Anyway, go check out this neato retell of the og Quest story by @thequestfortheinkmachinecomics. The characters’ designs are nicely touched up, their personalities seems more natural now, the art is really cool and oh no, I’ve run out of juice for words… I just know that this retell will be good so I’ll be on along for this ride.

Bendystraw headcanons because they are slowly taking over my mind i can’t escape them send hel-

•cuphead often lays on bendy’s chest having him scratch his back ,he loves it and 7/10 times he falls asleep like that

•while bendy is working on a project or reading cup will play with his hair

•cuphead takes big bites and fills his mouth to the brim, while bendy takes very very small bites

•bendy is the only one that likes cuphead with facial hair

•bicker like an old married couple

•bendy complained to Cala before he even realized he liked cuphead which usually left him being teased about how he probably has a crush on him

•bendy realized he liked cuphead when cup somehow pissed off a bunch of raccoons he was screaming as he was running away from them And bendy just looked at him with a soft smile thinking how silly he is , as he realized he didn’t make fun of him he also realized his crush and just glared at Cala calling her a witch (she will never let him live it down)

•cuphead realized he was in love with bendy when he caught him singing to himself and suddenly he understood his feelings and just started cursing “no! God ! Cuss! Why!?” Straddling poor bendy

•speaking of cuphead is the only person (besides Boris) that bendy sings around

•cup will often flirt with bendy in different languages around other people (-Felix) so they wouldn’t notice and while bendy doesn’t understand him he knows the tone and the look in his eyes which is enough to leave him flustered (not to mention he kinda likes when cup speaks a different language)

•bendy was very nervous about kissing cuphead because that would be his first true kiss and he didn’t want to mess it up But cuphead got badly hurt in a fight making him unable to leave his bed and once bendy finally got to see him he threw himself on him kissing him in relief he pulled away immediately but before he could even think about apologizing cuphead pulled him back begging him to kiss him again (that’s how mug finds out about them)

•that one scene when phoebe sees Monica and chandler but it’s holly and Cala

•cute picnic dates at night cuphead talks about starts while bendy feeds him

•cuphead calls bendy “darling boy” when he messes up something

•bendy will sometimes call cuphead an old man to annoy him

•cuphead once told bendy about a pice of jewelry that goes on handles and it took bendy a month to make it so he can give it to cuphead as a gift Cuphead forgot to mention that if you make and give it to your significant other you are proposing to them

•gave up after a while of trying to get bendy to bed by asking him now cup just picks him up and carries him to bed

•if one is stressed the other will lay on them like a weighted blanket

•bendy teaches cuphead how to cook they find out his surprising good at desserts

•cuphead genuinely believes Felix killed someone and got away with it so his really afraid of him finding out his dating his son that fear doubles when he meets Sheba and Nora and triples when he realizes that Oswald is dating him(rip cup killed by his boyfriend’s overprotective family)

•bendy was pretty obvious at first when cuphead was flirting with him before they started dating But now that they are together his constantly getting frustrated and embarrassed by it

•bendy Teaches cuphead to dance so they can dance together cuphead isn’t the best but he’s far better than before

•cuphead loves to watch bendy , rather his doing a project or drawing or dancing or just simply sitting cuphead loves to watch him It flusters bendy so much

•bendy noms on cuphead,his arms are filled with his bite marks most of the time bendy doesn’t even realize his biting him and apologizes profusely

•cuphead worries bendy will abandon him like all his ex lovers while bendy is just waiting for cuphead to realize that he isn’t worth it and leave him

•bendy is very ticklish so when cuphead is angry at him he will simply tickle him , the first time he did that he was laughing as much as bendy because he didn’t think he was that ticklish

•cuphead doesn’t like how skinny bendy is so he often gets him snacks while he works because bendy will eat them without a second thought

•cuphead put bendy in jail , jail being his lap

•when they fighting cuphead will put specific things on the grocery list that he knows are on the to shelf to annoy bendy

INTRODUCTORY POST.

Introduction

Hello everyone, admin here. Welcome to the TQFTIM:Post-Canon blog. Here I will explore the lives of the main cast of TQFTIM, except push the timeline a few years into the future. 

What to expect from this blog:

The content on this blog will consist of mainly shitposts, shenanigans and overall self-indulgent doodles. Redraws of panels and/or official tqftim art(if you can even call it that) can also be expected. TQFTIM:Post-Canon does not follow a storyline(at least yet). If anyone has any questions or requests, the (post-)questers are always happy to oblige.

The main face of the blog will be Cuphead, as this character was the one to kickstart the whole idea of post-canon TQFTIM, however I will do my best to include the whole main cast into the shenanigans.

Main changes

In this timeline, Bendy and Cuphead went trans some time after the presumed ending of TQFTIM. Below you can see the reference sheets that I have made so far. Whenever I'll make more reference sheets, they will all be tagged with "#tqftim:pc refsheet" for easy access in the archive, in case anyone wishes to revisit them. 

If you are uncomfortable with topics such as queerness and/or transitioning, I advise you to leave right away, as they will make rather frequent appearances and I don’t need more headaches.

Relationships/dynamics

Initially this was supposed to be bendystraw-centered, however while brainstorming I realized that I wish to explore their friendship a bit more. Bendystraw is such a funny ship tho I'm actually gonna cry. Regardless, this blog isn’t that serious, so whether you see bendystraw slip-ups alongside platonic bendystraw, it ain’t a big deal. Other ships or friendship dynamics might appear later on as the brainworms capture my conscience (or as you might request them from me directly, that is also an option), but that is for future-me to worry about. 

It is important to highlight the fact that I do not condone or accept proshipping. Keep that out of here, this is really not the place for you.

On another note, I need to highlight the fact that I do not support blogthegreatrouge, in fact, I despise them and what they did, however denying how much I liked tqftim as a kid would be blatantly stupid, so you know… Might as well take it and make it fun for myself :)

As a closing thought, I wish to remind everyone who will stumble upon this blog that it is all satirical and that I'm doing it because I'm having a blast creating it all. It is mostly meant for shits and giggles. Have fun! <3

[hornets-nest666]

Is Bendystraw gonna be a canon ship? Its ok if it isn’t gonna be!! I definitely won’t cry all night over here if its a no!!!!! BENDY I NEED HUGSSSS

I don't know🤓

[we-are-siphonophore]

I have had an experience.

So toddler is sick, but only enough to be contagious, not tired. We’re both going a bit stir crazy, so I go to the shops and grab something to entertain them before they decide to dismantle the household electronics as kids their age are wont to do. I was thinking maybe some paint or beads, what I found was the whale. Imagine a purple cetacean with bendystraws for a spout. Imagine my vision of a gentle spray of water while chaos toddler plays. Imagine the relief of not having to watch Bluey for the hundredth time this week. Then imagine my horror when I realize: 1. The bendy straws don’t spin 2. It becomes a water projectile when toddler helps me turn it on

Now Neighbor dog takes offense to the whale pelting his house with an unholy amount of water at a pressure I wish my shower head produced. Toddlers hears the normally friendly dog and immediately to pet the creature currently trying to eat through the fence to destroy the bedeviled whale, that has now upgraded from trying to drown one backyard to drowning all of the adjacent yards as well. I don’t trust the fence to hold the dog, so I run to collect toddler before they get their fingers bitten--and knock over the bin into the faucet that the damnable whale is attached to. I manage to wrangle toddler, get the whale down to tolerable levels of water spoutage when I realize that I’ve left the backdoor open for this process. Which means my house is now wet inside, but more importantly that my very skittish and very indoor cat might now be out in the neighborhood. I rush to find him watching us placidly through the window, somehow the only damn thing that isn’t wet within ten feet of my door.

Surely I threw the thing out, right? But I can’t. Somehow in between me trying to find the cat and closing the door the toddler bonded with the cursed cetacean. So the whale lives with us, for now.

Do you ship Cuphead x bendy too ??💮🌸💅🏻✨💕🎀💐💞✨💮❔

Better explanation:

“I do ship Bendystraw, but I’ve started to ship BlueInk, aka Mugman and Bendy! If you think about it, they would probably be a more Healthier ship.”

“I’m not saying that Bendystraw isn’t healthy, but in the OG QFTIM, they give off obvious toxic traits that could lead to problems in their future if they were to be shipped and coupled up in the OG, on the OTHER HAND, If you’ve written them correctly,say in different aus or storylines about them, then it could be much healthier!”

“Plus just think about how for in the OG QFTIM, Bendy could help Mugman move on from his mother leaving and Mugman can help Bendy through his ink attacks aswell as keeping him positive and moving forward!

And yes Boris helps Bendy with his attacks, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have negative feelings aswell, he’s still a child and it would help him as well from the stress”

So to put it, I do ship Bendystraw, but only if it is written correctly where it can be a healthy relationship (that doesn’t mean I still don’t ship the ogs but I do add that they heal eachother through their toxic traits when I do ship them)

Some old digital art here. 29.1.2021 it seems. It’s a cover picture for a book I’m working on in Wattpad. There isn’t any chapters/parts out yet but maybe someday. It’s called Fordidden Subject by DaddysLillPsycho aka me.

I do have BendyStraw one-shots book where I posted the first part yesterday so go read if if ypu’re interested.

[lillovingsoul]

I've been working on a BATIM AU for a while but it hasn't been coming together too well. Are there any questions you ask yourself before putting together a story? (ex. "How did ____ get to ____?" or "Why did ____ do what they did?")

To be honest, I’m not the best person to be asking about actual planning of the story, if that’s what you mean. I have this amazing quality related to the nonexistence of my attention spawn which leads to a rare condition called “You think too much - you lose interest”. I can try my best to tell you how I usually go about writing stories/comics, but I won’t guarantee everything here will be of help to you.

To get an actual story or an AU going, there are some simple steps I personally take to insure that the whole thing will make sense, is interesting to read and, most importantly, won’t make you as an author want to gag in the first couple of days after coming up with the idea. Here are these steps:

1) Come up with a thing that’s interesting to you no matter what else happens in the story, and make sure this thing takes at least a good chunk of the plot so you won’t lose interest. In Spiritual AU, my whole interest in the beginning revolved around writing Cuphead’s and Bendy’s relationship only, and I was forced to world-build to reach a point where Bendystraw would make sense and will have an opportunity to flourish. In actuality, this thing can be anything - from your desire to explore a specific type of a relationship, a wish to write some cool bandits in the post-apocalyptic environment, to a really specific point like having a character go through the experience of discovering something about themselves, or wanting to incorporate a specific event into the world you’re creating. Just find something to hold onto, it’s gonna be a long ride.

2) Get the plot figured out from the start so you know for sure you have a point to get to, but let yourself explore the possibilities of getting to that point in the process. Again, focusing on not letting yourself get bored and think of giving up here - have the key points of the plot thought out, but don’t restrict yourself too much. In my AU, I know exactly where we’re starting, what each character stands for, what their goals are, their relationships, and I know the endgame they desire. Everything else I build as I go, letting myself think every step of the way and not slack off. If you don’t have to worry about being bored of a thought-out plot before you actually write it down/draw it, again - think of the key points, think of the key points between these key points and so on. Split the events, think of what works best with the characters you have, and don’t be afraid to change the course of action and add more. But, getting rid of initial key points isn’t something you should probably do, seeing as they make the skeleton of your whole plot and lead you to the desirable ending. Unless you suddenly decide to change it completely, that is. No actual restrictions apply to this, you just have to keep yourself in check as to not get lost and come to an ending, yeah?

3) Got a character? Great! Do you know them well though? If you’re not sure - search up a character profile template, any one informative enough but not to the point of it being tedious, and fill it out. Or just write you own list of facts about them if that’s more to your liking. I’d say writing characters was always more important than writing the actual story for me, but it might be different for you. In my experience though, if you’ve thought out the character, their morals and relationships enough, they’ll go through any plot-points you throw at them with flying colors - think of it like a maxed-out Sim you give the commands to. If they’s maxed-out, they’ll know how to play instruments, cook, repair stuff - everything. The same thing goes for your characters - you will know exactly how they’ll act in an unpredictable situation like a robbery or getting great news, if you know them enough. Don’t forget to pay attention to their weaknesses, as those will be the main driving force - the best plot-points you can write aren’t the “He saw a tree. Neat.” ones, but the ones that’ll make those weaknesses actually apparent - “There was a spider on the door handle. No way to go.”

4) Think about relationships between characters, hard. If it helps - draw a schema with character’s names and do one of those memes with colored lines that represent different kinds of relationships (ex. red - love, green - friends etc.) It might seem ridiculous, but if you have a lot of characters, and especially if you’re creating them from scratch, you gotta fact-check yourself for the story to make sense. Every time you’re writing interactions, I suggest thinking twice about the choice of words, actions, and to who they’re addressed to. Might seem obvious, but you’ve already got your motivation, key points and character traits to look after. Think twice and don’t be afraid to correct yourself - you’re not rushing, you’re creating at your own pace, on your lonesome/with your team. It’s a safe environment to fix things before they’re public and canon.

Those are just some things I personally keep in mind for writing stories or creating AUs, and some advice as to how keep track of them. I hope at least one of these helps ❤❤

((Something I’ve gotta complain about on this blog.

My mutuals know that I’ve been having issues with Tumblr eating my asks lately, which for my mutuals isn’t a big deal, but the problem has nothing to do with them.

You see, there are at least five BatIM blogs that I want to interact with, but I know how being tagged in a random starter can be jarring and annoying for non-mutuals. So I’m basically limited to the askbox. Plus I’m such an anxious bean when it comes to interacting with new people, so sometimes it’s hard enough for me to just work up the nerve to send in an ask!! From there, I have no way of knowing if they got it, or if tumblr ate it!! Most people get seriously annoyed if someone asks if they got their ask, and they did, so it’s about a 50/50 shot if they did or not. That does not help my anxiety aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Oh, and in some cases, it’s straight up against their rules to ask that shit. Liiiiike this one Charley blog that I’m a big ball of anxiety to interact with. I’ve sent them at least two asks and I have no fucking clue if they got anything from me. See my frustrations though?? 

So far this blog is nothing more than Bendystraw, and that has it’s own verse just for that. I want to do something outside of the child verse! It’s not supposed to be the main verse. I’m just so frustrated with the whole thing. >:T

[leeharrington]

Woke up today with my neck disagreeing with me, notably. Add continued left hip adventures, simply feeling grateful this isn’t in combination with my migraines, seizures, or tremors. Why? Creative structural systems can be adjusted by… bendy straws! Now in possession of some. Anyone who says that straws can be replaced by soppy cup style systems don’t get that some of us can’t bend our necks in certain ways. #Disability #DisabilityAwareness #BendyStraws #GlitterBoy #Gratitude https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca5deGRumvJ/?utm_medium=tumblr

[intothespideyverses]

listen it was either pr@tt or bendystraws cockadoodle doo. im p sure if it was m*ckie then they would have let it out cause he isn’t gonna get a solo film any time soon but also lmao most of his interviews are joking and comedic it’s just Not Realistic for it to be him.

exactly mackie doesn’t get angry about anything he’s always JOKING like idk why people don’t understand this. this is the same thing that happened with the “omg mackie hates tom holland >:(” thing like HE’S JOKING HOW CAN YALL NOT TELL. the vid that everyone keeps referring to about man of steel wasn’t him “going off” on the guy it was him joking about how shitty the movie was. and even if miss steven was that upset about getting clowned TWO WHOLE ACTORS WERE ALSO THERE so seb especially would have stopped mackie from going too far and my boo winston would have just sat quietly like

so ANYWAY it was obviously ugly man pratticus or bendydick. case closed!

My Opinion On The CupHead Fandom

I just want tk share my thoughts on the fandom, I recently got into. The Cuphead fandom. There will be good things to say and bad so yeah.

Good thing about Cuphead Fandom

Cuphead is a really nice fandom aside from what comes with it, it’s really a nice one. I made some friends there, seen some amazing fan artwork, OC’s, and much more. As usual the fandom is flooded with OC’s bases on either the two brothers or different types of beverage. Stuff like that. It’s never a surprise to me when I see it. This is something that would happen and I don’t even mind it that much. I found some really good OC’s like that with some great thought out bio, power, and weapons. Really amazed me.

There’s boss OC’s too, and that’s the one I be enjoying a lot! Seeing what people come up with for that and the funny quotes from them is great. Just love it.

The seen OC’s of Cuphead that isn’t cups and like that too. They’re setting away from that and doing something else with it. Awesome. ( Btw, I’m not saying anything is wrong with it if you do have one, okay? )

Can’t get enough enough of some of the well drawn artwork of the bosses, Cuphead, Mugman, etc! I like ships. Nice cute ship of either Cuphead x a boss character, Mugman x Cala, or even OC x Canon characters. I’m not hating on ships like this.

Bad things about Cuphead Fandom

You see now.. Though I’m going to say I’m not hating and it might sound like it, I guess, but I do like ships like, gay ship, lesbians ships, etc.

BUT

Not shipping between brothers. I DON’T support incest. Not. One. Bit. I won’t hate on anyone who does like it. I wouldn’t go to each post and shower you with hate, but I can’t say I respect the ship of two brothers because that’s wrong, but again I won’t shower you with because of it. I’ll scroll pass it and look the other way.

This would sound so rude when I say this.. I apologize, but I would prefer Bendystraw over that ship anyday.

[thecupbros]

OH NOO NOT LIKE THAT I mean like idk like some cheesy romance air kiss or whateves XD O GOSH THAT WAS DA WRONG WAYY XD

Either way Bendystraw isn't and will never happen here.

[qftim-c]

Bendy I will give you lady's if you kiss cup

…I’ve stated that this isn’t a Bendystraw au

I like Bendystraw, but the relationship is toxic within where the original, and my continuation, is left off at right now.

(Also how in the heck does “giving bendy ladies” make their relationship any better, you’re just asking for bendy to kiss cup to then just cheat on cup basically.)

So please for the love of god stop asking for them to get together, it’s my continuation and I do what’s right.

[the-emotional-equilibrium]

I should not be this resentful and yet

Last night my grandad got rushed into hospital again, for what seems like the umpteenth time in the past few months.

He’d been sent home the day before after being admitted with chest pains and diagnosed with multiple broken ribs that just seemed to...happen? He doesn’t know how. But last night the phone was ringing endlessly until 1am, and then it started again at 6am.

I know I should be feeling sad, I suppose. I should be worried maybe or feel guilty that I’m not there to support him. But I just feel empty and angry.

I should explain that yes, this is just a broken rib it’s hardly terminal. But in the grand scheme of things everyone seems to think he’s on his way out what with his health deteriorating consistently over the past 2 years and him having had just about everything cut open or medicated or whatever.

Don’t get me wrong, to begin with I felt all the things I should have done. I was terrified and desperate to show him what he means to me, just in case it was the last time.

But now I don’t feel much at all. Even though what happens to him isn’t completely his fault, I’m angry that he’s contributed to it. Not so much that he smoked for 50 years and rotted himself from the inside out, he didn’t know. But I’m mad because every single trip we ever take over there just turns into my mum telling him to take his medicines or do his exercises and attend his appointments. And he doesn’t and we end up back in A&E again. Whether it’s Christmas day or not.

Every time the phone rings now, I don’t panic, I just sigh because I know what’s coming. He hasn’t looked after himself or somethings happened and they’re about to be blue lighted to hospital. That leads to my mums mood spiking and plummeting and her taking out all her stresses at home. Then she’ll go over there, he’ll complain he’s bored, she’ll be trying to keep everyone happy there, come back at 10pm knackered and even more ready yell at me. Meanwhile I’ve been stuck at home, mentally disintegrating and completely isolated.

Every. Single. Time.

Plus, and I know I should bloody let it go, life’s too short. Since I last saw him I really have lost quite a bit of respect for him. I used to think he was a real gentleman, with strong family values and morals. And yes, we’ve disagreed on things before, but he’d always at least feign listening to my points.

But last month he really proved me wrong. He started on about how Donald Trump is his favourite politician ever, about how he needs to ban every muslim and he’s leading the way for the rest of the world. Anytime I tried to speak up, he cut me off. He told me I couldn’t possibly know anything about politics, when he’d lived for so long as through the second world war. I even brought up how they support banning transgender people from the right bathrooms and conversion therapy and he just tossed it aside with a “why not”. Suddenly I wasn’t in any doubt where my mum’s  similar attitude came from that keeps me making heart eyes at bendystraw cumberbitch and the like.

That really got under my skin. I keep telling myself to let it go and move on, I’m really not the sort to hold grudges. He’s still the same guy who’s done a lot for me hasn’t he? But I just can’t.

Even as he’s lying in a hospital bed I can’t help but bitterly remark that I hope he realizes some of the nurses are Muslims or some are gay or some are here taking care of him because the EU exists.

I mean, as long as he’s complaining he’s bored I suppose he isn’t at deaths door. But I still feel guilty for being so angry.

[mssrspadfoots]

BUMBLEDICK CABBAGEASS. I cannot stand him he's ugly n nasty and I wanna fight him tbh (also pinjas a real loser for stealing my original answer amirite) ((love u kat))

Lemme talk to you about this creature okay with me just using Sherlock as an example. He has said a few times that Sherlock cannot be autistic because it would give them “false hope”. He constantly shoots down fan theories and basically from the couple things I’ve seen treats fans like crap when he doesn’t think he’s being recorded. Wake up Bendystraw, it’s the 21st century people are gonna record you.

Plus lets look at another show for example. While they were told constantly told by Fox that they couldn’t explicitly say that the character had Asperger Syndrome on the show the cast and producers have confirmed that Temperance Brennan was based off of a friend of the producers who does have Asperger Syndrome. And she wasn’t the only one on the show with it. And yet no one ever says it gives them false hope because she is a successful forensic anthropologist.

Just saying that it will give people false hope is not even an excuse. Like, honestly. he’s just an asshole, letsbereal.

AND THIS ISN’T EVEN MENTIONING THE WHITEWASHED ROLES THAT HE’S TAKEN AND MADE EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE FOR! (KHAN AND DOCTOR STRANGE). Literally though, I am proud of a couple people in the Star Trek cast who didn’t let it be unknown what their feelings were and their minuscule roles in the movie reflected that. Let us bow our heads for a moment of silence for the death of the poc roles that could have been so great if they cast an appropriate actor and yet they placed this piece of stale white bread in its place thinking that it could have been a suitable replacement. (I’m looking at you jj).

To conclude... I do not under any circumstances like Bigdeal Coolkiller
