Do you have any IM Bendy becomes the Devil headcannons? There’s something painfully ironic about a guy who didn’t think he would make it to 19 outliving all his loved ones in the end
Sorry for any grammar mistakes, I wrote this with google translate T-T
Anyway, love your art! ❤(っ^▿^)
If Bendy defeats the Devil and becomes the Devil himself.
he also becomes immortal, doomed to watch all his family and friends leave one by one, (because of that, i think he will give Black hat the Devil title, But we all Want Bendy to suffer so..)
After all of his families and friends are dead, thousand years pass.
Suddenly Cuphead showed up as a ghost, Both of them were surprised and Cuphead had no idea why he was there, and when he first saw bendy he was shocked, Bendy was more than two feet tall, And his face was covered with drooping ink, He was more terrifying looking than the old demon, And After spending time with him Cuphead realize That he was here because of Bendy, that he was trying to bring back his friends and family, so Cuphead tried to stop him.
“Why not? I can bring you guys back, Completely Without pain. You could walk again, speak again, laugh again. Why is that wrong?”
“You can’t just bring us back!” Cuphead shouted.
“And how would you stop me?!”
Bendy grew larger, his body twisting into something terrifying. Cuphead drew in a slow breath before answering.
“Because the moment you bring us back, death stops being an ending. It becomes someone’s decision.”
“You mean my decision is the problem?”
“Not a problem. A responsibility.”
Bendy said nothing, so Cuphead continued.
“Until now, no one had to ask why one person died while another lived. Because it was nature. Chance. Time.”
“But if you save us, then the question appears.”
Cuphead’s voice softened.
“Why wasn’t I brought back?”
“Why was that person chosen?”
“And from that moment on, you have to answer.”
Cuphead looked up at him, as if he had been expecting that answer.
“No, you don’t. The moment you set a standard, you become a judge.”
This time, the word was firmer, though still gentle.
“This isn’t a matter of strength. It’s a matter of structure.”
“If there is a change, there will be exceptions. If there are exceptions, there will be requests. And if there are requests, there will be people you must refuse.”
“So you become a being who saves some, while also abandoning others.”
“That isn’t what I intended…”
“But imagine bringing Felix back. He would definitely want to see his husband again. And once Oswald is alive, he’ll want to see all of his 420 kids.”
Cuphead looked at him carefully.
“Are you going to bring them all back too? You can’t. You don’t have that kind of power.”
“You would have to decide who gets saved and who doesn’t. And what happens when they realize they’re alive again, but the people they loved are still gone?”
Cuphead’s voice grew quieter.
“Do you really think they would be happy?”
Bendy let out a long breath. Slowly, his terrifying form shrank back into the shape Cuphead knew.
“…I only wanted to see you guys again.”
Cuphead stepped closer to him.
“I know. You never wanted to become the Devil. You never wanted to be special. You just wanted to live.”
“Then you became the Devil. And while I was up there, living peacefully with my brother, you were down here, suffering for a thousand years.”
“But if I return to life, I won’t be standing beside you as myself. I’ll be standing there as the result of your choice.”
“We would never stand on equal ground again.”
“I hate it when you’re right.”
“That’s because you know I’m right.”
“You know what? I’ve been doing this for one thousand years. I think that’s enough.”
He looked back at the throne.
“I’m done. Hat can become the next Devil for all I care.”
Cuphead raised an eyebrow.
“He would definitely boss you around.”
“Even if he became the Devil, I could still take him down.”
“If that happens, I’ll definitely be watching.”
Then, at last, he stepped down from the throne and set off on one final journey with Cuphead’s ghost.
