BOLICE IN MYTH?!? MAYBE! (Delusional MOTM Theory)
-
If you’re a crazy Myth of The Machine theorist like me, you’ve probably been keeping an eye for any foreshadowing or hinting outside the comic. Well, recently a poem was posted that was in relation to Boris that had me jump to some assumptions about Boris’ past.
Here it is if you haven’t read it yet
The poem is about Boris from an outside POV of someone who once saw him as dangerous, but quickly learns when meeting him that he’s anything but. Events happen that I still don’t have much of an idea about, but the person eventually kills someone and runs away in fear of his reaction and words.
As a Bolice shipper and huge Alice Angel fan, I immediately jumped to this person being Alice.
Proof of it being Alice is the language being used in the poem with things like “talons” and “flying”. Talons alone could be Bendy or like half of all Myth characters, but the flying part implies wings…and since there aren’t bird characters I can think of being in Myth tied to Boris, Twisted Alice having claws, and implying wings of some kind, Alice being an angel leaves her the #1 candidate.
Still not convinced? Well, how about we look into their relationship.
While you would originally think of Bendy since he’s the closest to Boris and the lines about being trapped and escaping together, there are some VERY romantic lines that allude to them being in a romantic relationship, or at least the speaker loving Boris romantically.
The lines of “Yet when our eyes met, warmth I had felt. Your large clawed hands cause me to melt. Those teeth speak words only lovers could hear. Those eyes so piercing were nothing to fear.” Has A LOT of romantic language. It could even imply they were actively in a romantic relationship, or were at least super close.
As for the last chunks, it includes lines about the speaker using their “talons” to kill someone or something to keep Boris safe, clearly understanding how he could never bring himself to hurt anyone even to save himself.
However, the speaker knew Boris hated killing, and “flew away” (ran away) in fear of his “bark” (words). I suspect they either ran away immediately after their deed in fear of Boris’ words.
The long and short of this theory with some added headcanoning is this:
After Bendy left, Boris was alone. He caught the attention of an angel named Alice, who was hesitant about him at first. However, after meeting, she learns more about him and falls for him, the two either becoming romantic partners or “close friends”. She knew he could never kill to save his life, and vowing to protect him, SHE could instead. One day, she DOES end up killing someone or something to save Boris, but after seeing his reaction, she runs away in fear of his words. She knew what he was like, and likely assumed immediately he would never forgive her for what she did. She couldn’t bear the rejection, so she ran away before he could. Perhaps this is why Boris isn’t able to make friends or anything: He DID have someone, but they ended up abandoning him.
A peaceful wolf, and a violent angel.
