______________

Cuphead listen intensively to Felix story weary carefully. Notching seamed off per say, the scene they showed him was a truly devastated area covered in black goo , their own state showed they cud  be attacked before. And his own memory served as a start of the battle. There were no logic holes in their story. Whit all that said. 

He knew they were laing. The devil was never sloppy enough to miscalculate. EVER. Plus if you take in to account that maybe 'MEYBE' he did...Cuphead just had a gut feeling this story is a fib.  

But they did save his life, take care of him and help regain some of his fading memories for...notching. Seamed like they helped the denseness of the forest as well, sync thru out the road there the cup didn't encounter any mini bosses suffering the illness or not. Nor they gory remains. 

The black red-ayes bored themselves in to Bendy's gaze steering the smaller demon down intensively trying to make him fell uncomfortable and brake. Spill there plan. But the devil was busy picking something from between his rather sharp teeth. Witch served to get a rise out of the cup yet again.  

 -Do you understand ANY social cues?- Cuphead asked finally. Bendy snapped back in to reality and smiled appetizingly.

-Sorry were you giving me one? I was distracted. 

-I noticed...-Cuphead his thru clenched teeth, before taking a calming breath and continuing calmly- You're story cheeks out, and frankly I don't fell like looking into it any deeper so...

 -So we can go back and make super..brilliant-. Bendy smiled to botch Felix and cups surprise. It seamed like the kid had an uncanny gift of decimating thick emotionally charged atmospheres. Who know social ineptitude was a gift? 

 -Yes I suppose its late enough...-Felix agreed fast, feeling the situation cud turn on a dime.-Lets get going before the fire dies out...i cud use some old fashion tea my self. -The cat complains massaging his hurting...everything. Cuphead stood back watching them, feeling a bit out of place. Should he go  whit? Was he invited? Was there even anything else to say to them? He probability should go back to the casino give his report...bout the faster he gets there the faster Dice will get him high on something and...

He will forget...

Again...

Pleas no...

Help...

-Hey...you coming or what?-Bendy yelled , looking at him. 

-uh YES!- The cup peeped up more enthusiastically than he wanted to. This wasn't staling...no, after all if they didn't help him and he'd just lie unconscious in the forest he'd be recovering far longer. So what if he stays for a bit. No harm no foul.

The silence a round the camp fire was, uncomfortable light for the new comer. Bendy and Felix talked and joked like notching ever happens. And the red cup felt a mounting unease, he shouldn't be hear enjoying this. Didn't they realize who he was? The cat did...

-So why are you even in this forest? He finally asked out loud. Felix and Bendy stooped and looked at him. The stray was the first to respond , swiftly seating the stage. Trying to control the flow of detailed information. 

 -I'm a stray dear boy I travel where the wind decides to take me. As for Bendy I chanced upon him looking for treasures or trinkets washed up by the storm on the beach...

A story that tells you everything whit out telling anything important. Clever old man, Cuphead nodded his head showing he accepted this answer before looking towards Bendy. 

 -And what were you doing on the beach?- He asked expecting a similarity short tail of woe. 

- I was trapped in an overturned wrack of a boat locked away in a dark place literal and metaphorical, worrying for my family and thinking a bout the destruction of my home- Bendy answers dead pane serious, but there was an underling sadness to his dead voice.- Soups ready- Piped the demon standing up and starting to , fill thee separate bowels. This was an obvious sign the discussion was ended, but...

 -I'm...sorry for your loss.  

 -I...I don't know if it's a loss, I'm hoping that beyond our home, my siblings somehow managed to survive. Hope is all I got. - Bendy whisperer towards the pot and cup felt really bad for him.  He cud relate to loosing family.  

 -Hope is..an afoul thing -Cuphed stated to no one in particular- I miss my brother dearly but sometimes when the world gets really dark and ...and I'm force to do...things-Cuphed toke a breath- I'm happy his not here to fell a shame of me...

 -If he was half the brother I haw the feeling he was after hearing you talk...I sincerely doubt he'd ever be ashamed of you. No more than I would ever be of Alice or Boris. -Bendy sighed giving him a bowel of steaming soup. There hands touche etch other and they look deeply in to one another ayes. If you'd ask the cup what he felt at that moment. He would tell you the world slowed down to a near hold.
