Read chapters 151 through 153 for Inky Mystery, spoilers and thoughts below.
How do yall survive these chapters? I'm enjoying a sweet moment around the crew finally seeing each other again, and then there's ANGEL EXPERIMENTATION, and Cazziel is dead! Like, please, I said I wanted a good day for them and now someone's dead and Mickeys leg was ripped off.
This book is breaking my heart man, I just want to see the silly little guys going on a quest to find silly little parts and now I'm attached and people are hurt.
Not even mentioning Boris betraying the group and then running away from Bendy. I know he's scared but it makes me want to shake him til his head spins.
Then on Bendy. Poor guy died! He died, and of course he's back but that's still insane. Now he's trying to help people and all he's getting is hell from all sides, and his brother won't acknowledge the face he's going to die from this illness, hopefully not, but that's still a major possibility.
I spoke to a few people on this but where I stand and I think it's obvious but, Bendy can live without Boris, he would be heart broken, he would be devastated but he would live on. Boris does not have that same capability. Boris would die if Bendy did, whether he did it himself by starving or running into traffic again. The kid is going to get himself killed if he ever loses Bendy. And that sucks, so hard to me.
I'm glad we got Bendy talking to Boris about starving himself, and then got a conversation about truly accepting him. Bendys right, Boris accepts the good parts of him, but what if he goes rouge, what if he goes beastly and hurts people, will Boris just say that it wasn't him?
I don't have much to say about the Angel torture area besides how disgusting and terrifying it was. It made my stomach churn, props to the writers, I barely survived reading that. And few thoughts to share on Felix and Holly for right now, though I do feel like Holly was absolutely justified to yell at Boris the way she did when they caught up to him. Boris had a chance to turn around in Toon town, he could have turned around when he heard them call his name. He could have turned around BEFORE RUNNING INTO TRAFFIC, but he didn't, and Felix is hurt because of it.
Edit: Thought about the fact that hat got his physical form taken away for helping the cups. I knew the guy had a damn soft spot. Besides the one he had for Bendy. But it's interesting for the Devil being strat to be "turning cup into a bomb", I'm not against it, I'm just thinking about how funny it is to see Cup being thrown toward the devil and the entire place turns into a mushroom cloud.
More thoughts to come as I think of them, but shout out to Haty for suggesting I share out my thoughts about the chapters as I go <3
