Cuphead oneshots (teehee)

Cagney Carnation x Female Reader

This was request was by mrc-lover-123 (such a popular request these days)

I legit fell over for the 7th time. Dang you shoes. I thought, Well what do I expect? Some cup kids shot my shoes on accident. Now it's so burnt that I can't even tie my shoe. I tried to bent over and touch my burnt shoe laces, and my finger got stung like a hornet stung me, and I have been stung by that once before. Now, those cup kids were fighting some potato, onion, and carrot, and while that was happening, I was walking by and the red one shot a blue bullet on my shoe. A sorry could be heard, then they just continued one fighting. I couldn't really catch their features, since the 'sorry' I heard was pretty faint

Now I was walking around slowly on a dirt path, trying to avoid tripping over again, which it quite helped. Call me crazy, or just believe that I felt like someone was watching me. I swore I could hear these low murmurs, every now and then. I opened my mouth to speak but I was cut off by the two cup kids running past me.

"Oh, sorry, miss!" exclaimed the blue one, "We didn't see you there!" I frowned but spoke up.

"I suppose you two have an explanation for this." I sounded like a mother, grounding her kids. But i'm not a mom, because I am not married to anyone.

"Well ya see," said the red one, "we-" the blue one elbowed the red one, with a, what-do-you-mean-we face, then the red one glared at him, and continued. "I, have put me and my brother, Mugman, in the risk of the Devil's hands, so we are fighting his debtors for the contracts."

"I see huh. Why did you risk your life to the Devil himself?" I asked sternly.

"Look. He offered so many riches ok? He even would lend over the casino."

"And, if you lost?"

"I, betted our souls to the Devil." I face palmed.

"Very dumb of you to risk something like that. I bet there was a 0% chance you would win. For all I know, they Devil could be using his magic instead." Mugman nodded then said.

"Well, that's in the past. I believe that we have a flower's soul to retrieve. Huh Cuphead?" the red one, or Cuphead nodded in response.

"Flower?" I asked confused. "Why would you need to retrieve a flower's soul?"

"His name is Cagney Carnation." replied Mugman.

"He is over that flower patch." Cuphead added, then pointed to a little flower patch, blanketed by many other beautiful flowers. Full of curiosity, I asked,

"Can I watch you fight?" Mugman raised and eyebrow.

"Is there a reason?" he asked.

"I just wanted to know how you two fight, considering the fact you are just kids." Cuphead nodded, and I followed. We went to the flower patch and we heard something creep towards our backs.

"Hello friends." spoke a male voice. We all turned around, and saw a massive sunflower or... carnation hence his name. with an adorable, his cheeks covered in red, his eyes round. I was about to say hi back, but the sunflower immediately lunged his face forward, with his pointy tongue out wiggling like mad. Then he brang his face back, only his eyes were pointy and evil, his nose pointy, and even his smile was evil. He brang his green hands, out flat and moving his left hand forward, then his right hand forward, then doing it again and again. There were red platforms with white dots.

"Oh and before we fight," said the evil sunflower, "I didn't quite catch your name sweetheart~" He was looking at me. I shook my head, Cuphead face palmed very hard, while shooting his finger gun, shooting out blue bullets, in a straight line. Mugman tilted his head confused, but shooting the same bullet as Cuphead.
