ITS BEEN ONE WHOLE YEAR SINCE WE STARTED OUR JOURNEY AND WE'RE STILL JUST ON CHAPTER 2!!
All jokes aside, this is a love letter to all of you from your good ol' pal Nortsauce. We couldn't have made it this far without your support and love and creativity.
I'd be honored if you read it :]
When we first started this project, fly had to cajole me into getting into the story a little bit, as I was a little intimidated by the premise. They burst into my room at around 2-3am holding Hailey Senpai's voice dub right to my still-waking face, and made a bet with me saying "I bet you could rewrite this." I was hesitant. But after seeing so many awesome rewrites, I say down and decided "Ah what the heck. Lets have fun with it."
And WE rewrote it :]
We spent nights upon nights throwing ideas at each other, sitting in our bedrooms at 9pm for the last few weeks of June, hammering down what we wanted and using our giant whiteboard to write out a timeline.
By the time we had come up with a pretty good premise, fly said that it was too fun not to do an ask blog, just like the good ol' days, but they were scared to do it. This was another point of my hesitancy, as my previous ask blogs were kind of stressful. I told them to do whatever they wanted, but they never did it.
Finally, i got the stick out of my ass, and I made it for them. I made the hyperlink, I made the hashtag system, I set up the profile and i spent an HOUR figuring out the stupid "Read from the beginning" link (that was later) I made a pfp and fly made a banner.
And it was done!
It never would have happened if fly and i didn't just say "Screw it." And forced each other to start the project.
Now we are here, we have a wonderful community, we have so many ideas, and best of all (my personal favorite)
We have so many new stories being told!!!
It feels like i'm a kid again. I'm always excited to talk about ideas with fly, discuss with friends, answer silly questions, see all the comic dubs, the art, the fan fictions the poetry the songs.
That people are loving creating art again.
I hope to see so much more. So many more stories, so many more characters, so many ideas, so many new friends.
So uh- my fav character in motm is Mugman so I’m curious if there are any fun facts about him?
Totally!
He’s a HUGE closeted romantic. He loves reading adventure books but only if there is a romance plot involved LOL Cuphead doesn’t get it
Mugman wanted to be a chemist before everything went…. badly.
He and cuphead both play instruments, have sweet tooths, and have matching pajamas. They do a lot together :]
Mugman is actually way more of a sore loser than cuphead is. Surprisingly, he’s more competitive than cuphead is too!
Mugman is more jacked and topheavy than cuphead is, which is why cuphead goes in for more of a sneaky and fast approach while mugman takes the cautious yet brute strength force.
Mugman still has eye issues, but he has a special glaze he puts over his eye-porcelain. Its part of his 15+ step morning routine that he HAS to follow.
I know this is not the original, but I have an idea (don't scold me)
I always keep in mind everything you’ve sacrificed for me. Once a group of bullies smashed my glasses, you stood up for me and beat them up, then used all the savings you’d worked tirelessly to accumulate to purchase a new pair for me, ending up penniless yourself afterward.
Those bullies were terribly vicious, which is why I took their things. I think these belongings rightfully belong to you, and this is just my little way of repaying your kindness.

HAIHAI HELLO HELLO LOVE MOTM ITS ABSULTELY AMAZING! (Excited for more chapter 2)
just curious on how the characters we have now react to themselves in babtqftim! 😛
I think about this a lot lmao
Myth!Bendy would be wishing he was 18 again (old ass LMAO) and jealous of his hair. However he'd be quite embarrassed by how Quest!Bendy acts around Felix.
Myth!Boris would be pretty shocked to see Quest!Boris because of how different they are. Quest is a lot more confident and talkative than him and Myth would be pretty surprised, but ultimately pretty proud of his younger self and wishd he was more like Quest!Boris when he was 12.
Myth!Cuphead would be laughing his ass off at every corny line Quest!Cuphead says. Myth is like the mean older brother to his middle school emo phase counterpart. Ultimately tho i think Myth would like Quest because, although a lil edgy and aggressive, he's down to earth.
Myth!Mugman would be pretty infuriated with Quest!Mugman but not for the reasons you'd think. Quest has a lot sillier and childish personality, things Myth sees as embarrassing or beneath him. He'd think that Quest isn't taking anything seriously and that would piss him off. Also, Quest is a whole ass adult becoming best friends with a 12 year old.
Shelly and Pebs didn't exist in Quest so I'll use felix instead
Myth!Felix would be so utterly embarrassed by Quest!Felix, not just for obvious (yaoi bait) reasons, but for the fact that Quest is just so open to other people in general. Why would he adventure with this random group of kids? They'd just get in the way! Why's he falling for this random guy? He doesn't know what he's like! You never know who might hurt you once you're attatched.
