Once that elevator descends into the ground, down to hell with his brother on it, Cuphead simply stands there, in shock, for at least a good 10-20 minutes. Half-expecting that Mugman would somehow just magically be okay, back up here with him. So many thoughts raced through his head.
How was he going to get Mugman back? What would he end up needing to do in order to accomplish that? Man, how was he going to tell Elder Kettle? He almost had to, at this point. How would Elder Kettle react to learning that not only had Mugman been taken by the Devil himself, but it was because of him that it happened at all? The poor cup’s not even sure where to begin with this.
SURE, carnivals were fun, but only because the Devil got something out of it — people’s souls. And explosions and fire were great, but only when they terrorized people. Fireworks were designed to ENTERTAIN people. The Devil wasn’t a fan. “What if we set this place on fire instead?” He turned to face Shireen. “Now THAT would be enjoyable!”
***
Shireen gazed up at him thoughtfully. “...You can set me on fire if you want,” she offered as a compromise, fairly certain that the flames, even the Devil’s, wouldn’t harm her. Perhaps, her companion would feel better getting to do so, and innocent people would certainly be kept safe from harm.
Like many of the stalls below them advertised, ‘Everyone a winner!’
light footsteps carry them swiftly across the studio. the floorboards only giving the occasional CREAK under their weight, as they knew where to step to avoid giving away their location. bendy purposely putting in the effort to move as silently as the shadows that crept along the walls. wanting to avoid startling their PREY before they were ready to strike...
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤcloser they stalked, && closer && closer...
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ...&& STRIKE!
long limbs are suddenly thrown around the other demon, pulling him close in a surprise embrace. careful not to injure him but still strong enough to keep him from escaping his hold. a deep RUMBLE starting in his chest as he bumps his head against inky in a gesture of affection for him. ❝ Good morning. ❞ he softly coos.
Ellie wasn’t going to make the same mistakes Delilah had; she wanted to make sure of that. It was her little sister, and Delilah was going to do anything it took to make sure that she had a good life, despite them not exactly being the wealthiest. “Call me if anything happens — and don’t stay out too late. If you’re not home by 10, you can bet your ass that I’m picking you up myself.” Language, Delilah.
“plots please” (Berlin and/or Gi-hun and/or any other muses of mine)
send plots please for me to give u some plots we can try !
BERLIN
i. so since she's a hostage hehe , and she's determined to make herself comfortable among the hostages and be ' special ' , she'll come to him more . making excuses to be with him , he's the leader and he's powerful , she'll make it impossible for him to forget about her . if it'll be something more than just physical attraction we'll have to talk about it because akina will be too feral about getting him out of there and might do so . ignoring his illness and everything .
ii. hm . this could be set before the heist thing when he's married the third time to someone and he's staying in tokyo ? and they see each other . and lol akina just introducing him to these cheap tastes , nothing fancy just having fun and being disastrous bastards together .
iii. andrés coming to steal from akina's dad ? hehehehe . marrying her and tricking her into believing he's in love and blah blah , so he could steal all their fortune and leave . i don't think akina could give him romance in this plot because she might be too obsessed w her boyfriend , but after he dies she'll be 👀 at her husband . hUsBaNd . but really it could be fun , especially if she'll try to be a good wife and nag about everything like her mom and give him the bestest experience of his life on bed hdhsjsi .
GI-HUN
i. alriGHT SO I WAS THINKING ,, akina being gi-hun's daughter's personal roller skate trainer and coming to his wife's house to teach him . and one day she sees gi-hun coming there ,, all messy and poor and maybe her helping him see his daughter more . lol . daddy issues , she doesn't want his daughter to miss him as much as she misses her own dad . even if she hates her own dad heh .
ii. vip gi-hun ??? in a verse where akina never joined the games but her father did and now she's the daughter of a vip and she's really creepy . keeps talking about how pretty blood looks etc. , b u t helps him in his quest to take down the vips because she hates hates hates them and her own family .
iii. akina is a clever lil shit , she knows how to pay poker and she knows how to never lose ; so her helping gi-hun win the poker games , making him a bigger gambler until one day she's betraying him and getting him in trouble . which results in BOTH of them getting into the games and have bad blood .
