Kidding. I actually love bendystaw (this is as close as i will ever draw them.) Even though I love the ship, they wont be canon.
They're more good friends in the story and are just dumb and dumber with angst.
But outside the canon, the way id picture their relationship (if romantic) would probably be the classic "HOW THE HELL DID I FALL FOR THIS IDIOT?!" trope. They're both pretty prideful, so flirting would be competing or trying to one up the other.
If they ever do pass that stage and one confesses...then they'd learn to be more casual and come off as roommates. Like pals who kiss sometimes ig. BUT YEAH! those are my thoughts on that.
Hello! First of all I love the redo of BABTQFIM and the redesigns. Also I have a question, what will be changed in each character? Like obviously the infantilization of Mugman and how Felix seemed as a twink with Oswald- 😭😭😭 and will you keep the inspiration of Indiana Jones with Felix? When I first knew this I WAS WISHING to see Felix like Indy, but keeping the calm and stern personality that had in the comic.
Hell yeah I'm keeping the inso of Indiana Jones in Felix! He is literally the coolest guy you'll ever meet! scoot over Bendy- cause IM his BIGGEST FAN! Keep reading for LONG discerption of characters.
Anyways- Bendy is going to be less err...chibi..? And more his age cause aside from Oswald(35) and Felix(34), Bendy is the oldest(25)
Boris(20)will also be more mature and assertive. Since Bendy got sick, their roles have shifted. Bendy was the one who would cook, do chores, and work- but now Boris takes care of it despite Bendys protest.
(Boris tells him things like "Helping you is what makes me happy." even though he is filled with worry and dread) Bendy wants to spend the rest of his uncertain life making Boris happy, and Boris wants to spend the rest of it making Bendy happy. It gets harder when Bendys condition continues to worsen.
Oswald, is still depressed, only change is that he's a little better at hiding it now. And really, he only stuck to Felix for as long/much as he did to feel some sort of comfort. Hes kind of using Felix to pretend his wife's(Ortensia) still there since they look really alike (i mean srsly I'm making them the same height and giving them similar mannerisms)
Though Oswald will eventually come to see Felix as their own person and finally treat him more like a friend and less of a replacement. This is when and only when Felix starts to like Oswald.
Felix is focused on his career, and adventuring but loves the family vibe of Micky and Oswald (plus kids) He doesn't crush on Oswald immediately, just finds him fairly handsome and sweet but doesn't explore the thought too much or tries not to.
He convinces himself that Oswalds "closeness" is nothing to read into (Oswald will eventually explain why he acted so close and apologize for using Felix, later seeing and treating him like hes Felix and not Ortensia) THATS when Felix starts to feel close to Oswald and gets a crush. NO HE WONT BE A FUCKING TWINK! but he will get a little awkward. Think like Jake English from Homestuck.
And yes, Oswald will still have feelings for Felix even after he stops seeing Ortensia in him. He'll just notice they(his feelings) didn't go away but doesn't let it show till later. Hes chill like that.
a fun flip around.
Cuphead(23) and Mugman(23)-
Cuphead is trying really hard to keep a lighthearted vibe with Mugman, since it takes place pretty recent to when they gambled their souls (ill eventually draw what happens after) But yeah- Cuphead is more hesitant to make "in the moment" decisions now, he is terrified of messing up again- but at the same time is trying to take on more responsibilities, trying to act like hes changed and grown up. He stresses himself out and is playing it up that hes in control of everything, telling jokes and always trying to "handle" things to make it up to mugman.
Mugman- Hes less bothered by things that used to scare him. i mean hes lost his soul, so why would he waste his time being good? hes been good all his life and now his after life doesn't matter. Hes going to hell no matter what he does. so.... he doesn't try so hard to follow his morals anymore. Hes most likely to stop caring all together .
This is perfect, cause hes suddenly gonna be forced to care a lot more when he realizes how stressed cuphead is.
Another role shift :) God i love issues. (really hope i can show these things about the characters in the comic T^T) I'm not the best writer.
If you got more questions or confused about smth, then feel free to comment and ill try to respond when i can. -Anyways im tired, goodnight.
