they missed and only shot him in the ear

do you think airplane might have intended to draw a parallel between shen qingqiu and the old palace master in the original outline?

present shen qingqiu as a monster, a lecher, a horrible, evil man, and slowly unspool the threads of his history. the readers learn of what, exactly, made him the way he is, and what his crimes are. which are true, which are not. his intentions, his failures, his hopes, how they got crushed, how he’d been misunderstood. from an incomprehensible vile man to a pitiful, cruel one.

after being thrown into hell and clawing his way back out, luo binghe is taken in by a proper, protective shizun, who treats him with the respect he deserves. who wants him under his wing, who is proud to be his shizun, who wants to become his family, via marriage with his daughter. then, he is discovered to be exactly what luo binghe thought his former shizun to have been, perhaps worse, and to have been the very reason luo binghe never had his biological parents in his life and all that resulted from that.

when exactly does luo binghe see the palace master’s true colours? after shen qingqiu dies at his hands? before? does it make him see shen qingqiu as he is, if he’s yet to get his revenge, and does it make it worthless, to kill him? does it drive him further towards insanity? does it leave him hopeless, jaded, despondent? with no one to trust, with nothing to hang his hopes on, no one to comfort him, what, exactly, does he do?

original outline luo binghe. speak to me my boy. tell me your secrets

Eddie posts a Tiktok in response to people saying that he shouldn’t critique someone’s personal style with old pictures taken inside Steve’s plaid hellscape bedroom like, “c’mon, tell me this isn’t a nightmare. And I’m not critiquing Steve. I’m critiquing his mother, a woman who three times tried to pay me to leave her son.”

“When did she do that?”

“After your parents found out we were together, before our unlawful wedding and before our legal wedding. Our love was only worth five thousand dollars .”

“…we took that trip in ‘87 after you made ‘the deal of a lifetime.’”

“Oh yeah, babe. I took the money. And then I fucked her son.”

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.

Top Tracks: The Howl & The Hum - Same Mistake Twice

If you could relive your life, what parts would you change? I’m sure we’d all love to take back our missteps, forge a new path, and live out the idea of our best life. Thing is, that wouldn’t be your life, and it wouldn’t be you leading it. Not really. Our mistakes define us just as much as our triumphs. They both give us the push we need to learn and grow, and help us determine our resolute…

Me, couple years back, watching people send each other pdfs after an author deleted their work: how do people just have downloaded fics lying around?

Me, now, having learned the lesson the hard way, with my ao3 bookmarks fully backed up offline on an external hard drive: oh

[ninyard]

hello! just wondering who do you use as your kevin fc for the fake tweets? you're SO funny btw, i keep rereading them and cackling at the idea of kevin making it into one of those your fave is problematic threads

Louis Garrel ! He’s a pretty popular face cast for Jean I think but he’s closer to my Kevin personally? but to be fair I do have more of him on my Jean board I just have a different fc that’s closer to my Jean. (Does that even make any sense??)

I also think Sidney Crosby

+ Hector Bellerin

are my Kevin’s tbh :)

I just need ONE fanfic with Percy falling in love with Nico after the latter has moved on from his crush. Is that too much to ask?

Baby's first car accident! Does Hallmark make a card for this?

Everyone is fine. I want to reiterate that. The kids aren't even sore today. The impact wasn't severe enough to activate the airbags.

I knew that in this horrible storm my parents would be all "hey, whatever, man" and let my brother drive his goober friends to Tahoe! I knew it! He spun out in the rain and hit the center divider and the car is pretty messed up. My dad's van is still iffy (million dollar idea: modified van/car repair shops in the Bay Area that are staffed by people who know what they're doing), so my stepmom is renting a huge SUV to go fetch three teenagers and their gear from Sacramento. I offered to loan her our car but that would mean an hour of waiting for me and then hoping everyone and all their stuff actually fit and she was walking into Enterprise as we spoke so she's fine with this plan.

I aged about 10 years between getting my dad's voice mail - the tone of which is best described as "someone's definitely dead" - and finally reaching my stepmom after my dad didn't pick up. She started the call with "everyone is OK" so that was fun.
