Cuphead's Perspective

I looked down at the tiny midget who had been sleeping on my chest and watched as he rolled around and purred in his sleep. Big weirdo. I got up and set him on the bed, stretching before getting dressed again. It's morning, and we have to keep going. I gathered my stuff and kissed Mug's wolf fur covered forehead before wiping off my lips and leaving the room for breakfast. I walked down to the lobby and noticed a dining section with breakfast served to the people who are occupying the hotel. Sweet! I collected waffle, a glass of milk, and a biscuit. I'll eat more if I feel like it. I found a spot in the crowded room and got comfortable, setting my breakfast down. I poured some syrup and watched the liquid slowly slide out of the bottle.

I wonder what Bendy likes for breakfast, aside from what he ordered in the café. It doesn't matter... I shouldn't be thinking about him anyway, it would make my job much easier. I... Am going to do my job... Yeah... I sighed and slouched in my chair, not as carefree feeling as I was just a moment ago. I ate quietly and listened to all the chatter. I looked at all the vivid colors in the room and eventually my eyes rested on the ground. After minutes of eating slowly, I was pained to hear Bendy come over and greet me. "Hi Cuphead! Mind if I sit with you?" He asked and I shrugged, remaining quiet. He sat in the chair across from me and tilted his head curiously. "Hey dude, what's up with you?" He asked and I didn't answer. He sighed and started eating while I sat there feeling empty inside. Hollow, like an empty tree trunk. I don't want to kill him...

I sighed and dumped the remains of my food in the trash. I went back to the hotel room and woke up Mugs was was sleeping next to Boris. He complained, and after many minutes, finally got up. Finally. I dragged him down to eat and started to get our stuff packed up again. Ugh... I just want to not have all the stress and craziness in my head... Like I felt earlier... Last night... I sat on my bed and Boris looked over to me, his fluffy tail wagging slowly. "Hi Cuphead." He said and yawned. "Do you... Feel sad?" He said noticing that I was practically hugging myself. "I-I..." I stuttered out and he placed his hand on my shoulder. "You can cry with me, bro." He said and I looked up at him with a quivering expression.

I shakily hugged him and felt his soft hands rub my back soothingly. I ignored my trench coat poking me and buried my face in his soft neck. "Tha-nks..." I whispered and closed my eyes. I really needed a hug... I stayed in a comfortable hugging position with Boris like this for a few minutes, then I realized he might want to stop hugging. I pulled away and he gently wiped away the small tears that had collected in my eyes. "See, that wasn't so bad now was it?" He said and I nodded slowly. "Thanks Boris..." I said and his tail happily wagged. "No problem bro!" He said and hugged me again. I smiled and hugged the little wolf back. "You're not a bad kid." I said plainly and he giggled. "I know, Cuphead." He said to me and I rested my head on his neck once again.

After a while of him making me feel better, I made him keep it a secret and we packed to go. I'm kinda glad he did that for me.. I decided to try hard not to be upset as we started venturing out in the forest again. Mugs was snuggling with my arm and Jackpot was curled up in my head still. "Hey bro can I have Jackpot?" Mugs asked and I took the kitty out. "Yeah." I told him and set him down in Mugs arms. Mugs happily giggled as Jackpot wriggled, trying to fight his current state of being held like a toddler. I chuckled and helped him by making Mugs cradle him instead. Jackpot looked a bit less pissed and snuggled up to him. "Heh, see, he loves you." I said and Jackpot glared at me. Mugs smiled and kissed his forehead.
