"It’s not every day I have a guest" Fey chuckled flashing her Cheshire cat like grin. “I have one question though, why exactly are ya in my neck of the woods?" she asked raising an eyebrow.
.....this au is gonna be the death of me with all of these fluffs and angsts stuff that is happening. So this is based from @guacimolium fanfic Wrong (Good god my heart) which is also based on @shinyzango 2D Bendy AU. So umm....I got nothing else to say...so here you go....
Henry was now coming back from an exhausting day at work. The place seemed more busier than usual and his boss, well...seemed more aggravated than usual as well.
But he can forget about it since he now has a few days off from work and spend a little time with his friend Bendy, who has been living with him for months now ever since they’ve escaped together from the hell studio.
He starts to unlock the door. “Bendy, I’m...” His voice trailed off at the scene before him when he entered.
Ink.
It was everywhere. On the walls, on the floor, even the ceiling. Some of the furniture was destroyed as well. ‘What the hell happened?’ He thought, slowly dropping his bag.
That’s when he saw a clawed like hand print on the wall, making his heart stop and his skin pale.
Bendy.
He went around his home, frantically searching for Bendy. “Bendy!? Bendy, answer me! Where are you!?” He called out, looking at each room before reaching the final door he did not look at. It was Bendy’s bedroom. When he first got this for Bendy, he thought that the little guy would want a room on his own and he was happy to see Bendy’s happy expression on it when he first saw it.
He slowly opened the door, seeing the ink on the floor, walls and ceiling as well as it was in the living room. That’s when he heard the frantic breathing in the small corner.
Henry’s heart sank and heaved when he saw Bendy curled up in the corner. Some of his figure was melting, due to how stressed and frantic he was, his gloved hands covering his eyes. As slowly as he could without spooking the little demon, Henry took small steps towards him before kneeling down gently.
“...Bendy?” He tries to reach his hand out to him, then flinched his hand back when Bendy suddenly snapped, able to seeing his face. Henry was in shock when he saw half of his face covered with ink, one of the horns crooked and sharp while the other was Bendy’s normal face, but inky tears rolled down his cheek.
“H-H-Henry...d-d-don’t come n-near me...” The demon stuttered that was mixed with sobs and hiccups. The old animator’s heart broke at the sight and the stuttering. “I-I’m too d-dangerous...j-j-just leave-leave me...a-alone...” The Demon choked.
“....Bendy, you know that’s never gonna happen...I’m not leaving you--”
“I AM A MONSTER, HENRY!!” Bendy suddenly snapped, his teeth growing to fangs at the sudden anger he felt. Henry did flinched, but he dared not to leave his spot. “I-I am a m-m-monster...l-like the ones in the-the studio.....maybe...” Bendy curled up a bit, his shoulder shaking. “....maybe I need to go back to the studio...I-I won’t bother you again and...and you’ll be s-safe---”
He was suddenly cut off when Henry placed his forehead against Bendy’s, his eyes clenched shut and Bendy seemed to tense up.
“...Listen to me, Bendy.....you are not a monster...we’ve been through this conversation so many times....I thought you would get it by now...” He chuckled a bit sadly. He opened his eyes to look at Bendy, but kept his forehead in place with the little demon’s.
“We are practically family, bud. I’m not going to abandon you anytime soon. Yes there are things that are hard to control, but that does not mean that you’re doing this alone. I’m with you all the way, even if I have to stay at home all the time to help you, I’m willing to do it. That’s what family does, bud; they help each other...you get where I’m getting at?” He asked, wiping some of the inky tears away from Bendy’s cheeks, which Bendy sniffed and nods.
“...I know things are hard now...but in time...things will get better...you’ll see...” He smiled sadly. He could see some of bendy’s form starting to turn normal as he continued to wipe some of Bendy’s tears away, his other hand rubbing his shoulder gently, but he knew it wasn’t enough when he felt the ink demon starting to shake. Bendy starts to downright sob, covering his eyes with one of his arms as his shoulders shook rapidly.
Henry slowly pulled Bendy into a tight hug, which Bendy clenched to the front of his shirt, sobbing into his chest. Henry could only hush him gently, rubbing his back in soothing circles while rocking him back and forth.
This seem to make him sob louder.
‘...poor fella...I wonder how long he was holding this in...’ Henry thought, holding Bendy through his sorrows. As Henry rubbed the back of Bendy’s head, the ink demon starts to calm down, hearing the tired sniffles and hiccups as he had his head resting against his shoulders.
“....sorry ‘bout the mess....” Bendy sniffed, referring to the ink stains all over the house, but Henry could only smile sadly. “...eh, it’s okay...I needed to redecorate the house anyway...never liked the pale green color I chose for the walls...” He chuckled a bit.
He smiled a bit when he heard the small demon giggle tiredly at that as well. “...here, tell you what...tomorrow...we can repaint the house, how about that? I’ll let you choose the color.” Henry offered.
“R-Really?” He asked and Henry smiled, pulling away to look at him. Henry nods. “Of course. It’ll pass the time tomorrow.” He said. He didn’t have time to react when Bendy jumped up to hug him, nearly knocking him over with the great force he put into it, but smiled and pats his back.
00~00
So the next day, Bendy chose a dark red color, which surprisingly Henry did like and agree to the color. He was unsure of how it’ll fit with the furniture color, but hey, it could never hurt to try. They did have to cover the carpet with covers so that the paint wouldn’t drip onto it.
They painted half way through the house, the black ink now replaced with the dark red until Bendy got to a spot he could not reach. Bendy tried jumping up and down to reach the spot, but he was quite not tall enough to get to it.
“Having trouble, bud?” Henry asked, putting down his paint brush to see his progress. His cheeks have a bit of paint on it, but he knows that he can wash it out later.
“I-I got this!” He shouted, still hopping up and down to get to the spot, which he was making a ‘sproing’ sound every time he kept trying to hop up and down. It took Henry with all of his might not to laugh at the sound effect.
“Y-You sure, bud?” He said, managing to hide his snort when the sound affect came more faster than usual when Bendy jumped faster. Eventually, after awhile, he did give up on hopping, sighing in defeat.
“...I can’t reach...but I wanna paint it...” Bendy whined, looking at the spot that was way beyond his reach. He was going to ask Henry what to do, but then tensed when he felt Henry lifting him up, placing him on his shoulders. “Can ya reach it now?” He asked.
It took Bendy a moment or so to keep balance, accidentally clenching to Henry’s hair, which he did wince at that, but hid it very well. But after a few mere minutes, Bendy got himself balanced.
“Y-Yeah, I c-can...” Bendy stuttered, managing to lean over and carefully paint the one spot he kept trying to get his hands on. Henry smiled as he got the other paint brush, from arm’s reach of course, and helped Bendy paint the wall to help speed the progress.
As the hours went by, they look at their progress. It look like no ink was there at all and Henry smiled. “It looks great, Henry!” Bendy smiled, his hands resting on the top of Henry’s head, since he still on his shoulders.
“Yeah, I think we did good, bud.” Henry smiled, then looks at the time. When he saw how late it was, he didn’t realize that so much time went by.
“Well bud, I think we should call it a day and finish the rest tomorrow...” He said, slowly getting Bendy off of his shoulders. As he went upstairs to help Bendy to his room, he noticed how Bendy stopped at the hallway.
“Hey, you okay, bud?” Henry asked, walking back over to him and knelt down to be at his height. Bendy seemed to eye his room fearfully, not wanting to go in there. As Henry looks, he realized why Bendy was scared.
“Hey, hey...it’s okay...you can stay with me tonight, okay? Then we’ll paint your bedroom tomorrow, okay?” Henry asked. Bendy was taking deep breaths to calm himself down. So Henry did the only thing he could think of. He pulled the demon into a hug and Bendy clenched to his shirt.
“...’m sorry...” Bendy said, Henry standing up with the ink demon in his arms, walking past Bendy’s room to his own bedroom. “It’s okay, buddy...things happen...like I said, we can deal with this tomorrow together, okay?” He said, placing Bendy down on the bed.
Bendy nods and Henry smiled. “Alright. I’m gonna shower and then it’s bedtime, okay?” He said. Bendy nods as he got under the covers, looking at Henry as he was already almost covered with the blanket. Henry chuckled and went to the bathroom to shower.
Now finally clean from the paint, Henry came back with some pajama pants and a white tank top on, he saw that Bendy was already becoming half asleep. He smiled sadly as he pulled the covers and crawled in. When he did, he was not surprised when Bendy turned to snuggle against him.
Henry smiled as he laid his head down, one arm around Bendy, closing his eyes as he let slumber claim him. “....hey, Henry?” Bendy suddenly asked.
“Hmm?”
“...what if it happens again...?”
Henry cracked one eye to look at him and could only smile sadly. “...we’ll pull this through, bud...I promise...” He gives Bendy an affectionate squeeze, letting the small cartoon lay against his chest. It did not take long for Bendy to fall asleep, followed by Henry.
He knows that they can battle this out together. Even after what they’ve been through in that hell studio, they know that they got each other.
The END
This AU is giving me too many ideas ad I have no idea how to stop it! XD Future ones are yet to come.
"Hey, I am alive Immortalized! You're the creator You traitor!" "Hey!" "There's no vaccine To cure our dirty needs For now you must build up our machine You die tonight!" I swear this song is so catchy and it only got released today. For those who don't know what this is, Bendy and the Ink machine is a developing horror game that is based on two friends who created cartoons (back in the day cartoons that were black and white) and apparently one of the friends tried to do something with the characters and now they want revenge for being abandoned for so long. So I drew Bendy with a few of my characters (most of them I made up along the way)
