An hour, maybe two, later.
The air is tense. Like electricity gathering, cackling. Everyone is in the main room. Aris is in the hammock, grooming her fur with her tongue. While Star sits under the hammock, she's watching Henry and Bendy. Allison is shuffling cards, and Tom is tinkering with his mechanical arm. Both of them are sitting at the table, Tom has moved the middle chair towards Allison, who is sitting on the opposite side of the table from Henry. Henry, sitting in the chair that is a few inches from the wall, is sketching in an old sketchbook he found. The ink demon is sitting next to him, he's leaning against the wall, seemingly ignoring everything. There's also two lost one's sitting by the wall in between where Star and Aris and the stove. They're silently playing cards. (AW SAD BOIS! TwT)
"Stop staring at me, Star." Bendy growles dryly not looking at the other ink creature.
Star brow furrows "Stop me." She provokes, her words slow but sharp. The tension buckles. Bendy growls and stands up. He stomps to Star, who was standing by then. They walk towards each other and stop a few inches from each other. Everyone is watching them, except Aris, who is still grooming her fur but her one of her ears is facing towards the action, while the other swerves around for seemingly no reason. Star looks to the place where his eyes should be, her eyes filled with hate. Bendy winds his arm back preparing for a punch. Bendy's fist flew forward, Star grabs his fist. Bendy leans toward her, "Come on, doll. We both know who will win this squabble."
Star snarls and stomps her left foot. A global of ink comes down from the ceiling, it forms into a rapier. Star grabs the thin sword with her right hand and brings it up to Bendy's Bowtie, Star's eyes reflect dry intent; to kill. Bendy hisses and tries to back up, an ink tendril comes down from the ceiling and wraps tightly around the demon's neck, it snakes around the upper half of his body. It constricts pinning his arms to his side. Star raises her blade to strike Bendy. Henry gets up and runs to them.
"WOAH! Star stop!" Henry yells as he gets in front of Bendy. Aris wraps her tail around Star's waist and moves her sister towards the corner where she's laying. Henry asks Bendy if he's okay, Bendy nods and walks back to where he was sitting before the fight (rather squabble but whatever). Bendy and Star are glaring at each other. "What did Joey do to you guys?" Henry shudders, everyone looks at Henry. It feels like he just said something taboo, that feeling of wrongness. Then everyone looks down. Back to silence.
"Joey was once a good man with good ambitions, who had ideas and dreams." Aris, surprisingly, is the one to shatter the crushing silence. Her voice is young, probably about five. She doesn't look at anyone her gaze focused on her forepaws. Henry sits down having a feeling that this is going to be a very long story. "At least, that's what we heard. The Joey we knew would pit us against each other, beat us, trap us in rooms with pentagrams that would do different things to us, he would use us as lab rats--No! Slaves." Aris' shutters but she continues. "He started making new employees sign contracts that gave their soul to him. Joey was cruel, harsh, unforgiving, broken shell of a man with a heart darker than the void itself. Even Mr. Lawrence, who didn't like any of us, disapproved of what Joey did to us. No one liked or approved of his actions, at least openly. But, they were scared of him as well, they couldn't stand against him. And neither could we. Until one of us snapped and he got what he rightfully deserved. I can't remember who did it, my memory there is blurred, like smeared ink." Aris sighs she jumps down from her hammock and lands on the ground with padded feet, the ground creeks softly under her. "I'm going to our room." Aris states and begins to walk away.
"I was the one to get him." Bendy states dully. "Joey, correct?" Aris asks without looking at him. "Yes." He responds Aris nods "I see." Is the creature's only reply. Then she walks down the hall Henry's room is down.
