42!Miles Headcannons
I am on a kick of Spiderverse, so Tumblr gets it-
Miles has separation anxiety with you, which got a lot worse when you started dating, him being the prowler and all
He cannot handle the sound of guns, it makes his anxiety race.
He'd never admit it but he genuinely likes your company, like he'll deny it then go out of his way to find stupid reasons to hang out with you. Which his mom plays into. Miles: Aye, Idiota. Come over. My mom misses you. Y/N: Ooookay? Rio, hugging Y/N: Y/N I've missed you, how've you been? Are you feeling okay? Have you been eating enough? Y/N, laughing: I'm okay Mrs. Morales, thank you for worrying about me though Miles: *Absolutely smitten by how you interact with his mom*
Leaves you gits randomly, like if he's out on a job with his uncle and he sees something he knows you'll like he'll swipe it (and leave money) and either leave it on your desk or put it on your window sill. You've yet to catch him
He HAS stopped and watched you sleep when he left you a gift, not in creepy way more like a "God... They're so perfect..." His eyes, hidden behind his lil mask, softened on you. He only left because the hallway light flicked on and he panicked. That was the loudest he had ever fled from somewhere, he didn't even close your window.
He is really artistic too, he has dozens of sketches of you in his sketchbook. You're his favorite thing to draw
Don't get me wrong, I'm a sucker for Miles wanting to kill someone for you. But he would only think it, he'd never actually act on those thoughts. He couldn't bear the weight of taking a life, even if it was for you. He's a vigilante, remember
As terrifying as he seems, Miles is a HUGE baby when it comes to getting hurt. He'll act like he's fine, but when he's with his Uncle or Mom he cries. Like ugly cries, he's a huge baby-
Has Trypanophobia (The Fear of Needles), hates the sight of them and cannot handle it when he has to get shots
When he cannot handle anything anymore he goes to his dad's Mural and just sits there, he doesn't talk or make any noise. He just sits against the brick, sometimes he cries, sometimes he doesn't but he's always there late at night so no one really sees him
He doesn't talk to anyone he actually has a crush on, like he's flirty as hell with everyone but the person he actually likes he's really blunt and distant. Like a dumbass
I can 100% see Miles being Omni, like he could like anyone as long as he's close to them
We all know Miles' sleep schedule is FUCKED, he's a Vigilante, he doesn't get to sleep much due to everything being at night. But he still gets good grades and sleeps when he can
This is literally one of his posts on Twitter and you CANNOT tell me otherwise-
Tumblr media
He isn't really bothered by people who're taller than him, or people who are a few inches shorter. But if you're below his chin he's wary, he's heard enough from Ganke not to mess with people that short. "They have to climb to get things, I don't wanna mess with someone who climbs counters.
I can see him being taller than 1610!Miles, cause 1610!Miles is 5'8" so I can see 42!Miles being anywhere from 5'9 to 5'10". Like it's not a noticeable difference if you're not paying attention, ya know?
Miles does Photography, but it's more of a hobby. He doesn't plan on turning it into a career, but he does it when he's got the chance, his posts look like this
Tumblr media
Bubbly_Rose and Vanilla.Coffee.Addict. Are both his mom, different accounts to support her son. Best mom 100%
Miles has dozens of playlists on spotify, most of which are for his friends and family.
Cat person but has a german shepard named Luna
Had dreads ONCE and decided he hated them, so he stuck to his braids
Miles can cook, really really well. His mom and him used to bond through cooking and now it's something he does when he's stressed or upset
Depending on how tired Miles is, is how he sleeps. If he's just a lil sleepy, his legs are kinda bent and his arms are by his head, HOWEVER, if it was after REALLY tiring job with his uncle he kinda just falls onto his bed and sleeps like that
He usually doesn't go to anyone for comfort and comforts himself unless it's really bad then he goes to his mom or (if he really REALLY trusts them) his significant other
Miles has a tendency to flinch/move away from any form of touch that's not from his mother. He gets pins and needles if he's not expecting a touch and it is almost painful, I wouldn't say he's touch-starved but with his mom working so much it's easy to see that he would be
The one thing that brings Miles' to tears is watching his mom work herself to the bone and never being able to take a break. It makes him so mad that he can't help her, without it being obvious, that it reduces him to tears
He cries when he's mad
He hates it when people go through his things or move them. He has everything in a place, everything has to be perfect. Major OCD when it comes to his room, it's his space and he wants it perfectly clean
Miles takes really good care of himself, he keeps himself in shape (outside of being the Prowler) and makes sure to eat and hydrate right
Miles. Is. A. Huge. Softie for little kids. He acts like he can't stand them but the minute he's flashed a toothy smile from a little kid, he can't help but smile back
He considers a few people who aren't family, his family like Ganke
His idea of "A Perfect Vacation" is going anywhere with his mom and Uncle. It could literally be a trip to his Paternal Grandmother's house, and as long as his mom isn't working he is perfectly content
Miles tends to bite his nails and chew on his lips when he's nervous
By FAR the strangest thing Miles has ever seen was one of his classmates straight up touching their eyeball, that happened when he was 13 and it still freaks him out
Miles accepts advice relatively well, he doesn't show it but he does
He hates most pictures, but there was a few that his version Gwen took of him.
He is horrible at talking to someone he's got a crush on, like worse than 1610!Miles ;-;
Miles wakes up before his mom, when she's home, and makes her breakfast, he eats, showers, and goes to school, comes home, does his homework, goes to his boxing class (curtesy of Uncle Aaron), and depending on the day either goes on a job or goes to sleep
He has a few scars on his face from one of the first few jobs he was on when he wasn't far enough away from a bomb when it went off
Ocra. He CANNOT with the texture of it.
He loves stormy weather, its relaxing to him
He loves Fall and winter, the crisp air makes him smile
As a way to waste time, he goes to the gym or draws
When Miles wakes up from a nightmare, he kinda just lays there until he puts his headphones on and falls asleep to whatever song he's listening to
Miles collects little doo-dads from the street, it gives him something to fidget with
Miles knows English, Spanish, and French. He had to take a second language class and he COULDN'T take Spanish, so he's relatively fluent in French
Miles is the type of person to give someone the tightest most affection hugs, like even if he's just friends with the person. Hugs are like "I love you"s for Miles, they're sparing things from him
If Miles had three wishes from a genie he'd wish for: 1. His mother to either be paid more or for her to work less 2. His city to have less issues 3. To talk to his dad again
CROSSOVER: Miles is a gryffindor, with a Kingfisher Patronus and an 11.25 in Applewood wand with Unicorn hair ((I don't support J.K. Rowling))
Miles saw you in his clothes once and it MELTED him, he physically leaned against the wall and smiled stupidly
If you don't typically wear glasses (despite needing them, like my dumbass) and you wear them around Miles. The first time he saw you in them, he was distracted enough he walked into a wall.
Miles will protest being called cheesy things likes "Babydoll", "Pumpkin" "Sweets", "Bubba", "Light of My Life", "Tater Tot" (this happened ONCE, "Sunshine", "Dumpling", "Bambie", and "Babyface". He genuinely loves it when you call him that. Specifically: Babydoll, Pumpkin, and Sunshine. He still likes the other ones but loves those more.

WOOO THE FIRST ONE IS HERE!!!
Funny enough, but my first ever drawing based on Confinium was with Navigator and not the Pilot (who still is my favourite to this day ABSOLUTELY ISN'T OBVIOUS YEAH). So, this Navi drawing was made in the summer of 2018 in my first sketchbook. Damn, I was 15 at the time...
I loved every character in the game, but Pilot resonated with me more than anyone else. Maybe his character is just something that is closer to me personally. So, I liked Pilot so much that I made a felted toy after him. It's still one of my favourites (I also have felted Zacharie and Bad Batter's head, but I consider them ancient at this point, and they look like they have seen some shit) and I brought it with me to the Black Sea one time. Me and my family traveled there by the car, 3 000 km to the sea and then 3 000 km back to my hometown, so that lil' guy have seen a bunch of russian cities and beautiful landscapes on our way B)
Tumblr media
I also made some of my drawings in not so pleasant periods of my life (specifically the two last ones). I guess I got some sense of relief from drawing certain scenes from the game, trying to put my feelings in the atmosphere of those pieces.
I still come back to the game from time to time. The first time I played Confinium was in 2018, but only a year ago I found this "Bendy and the Ink Machine" song reference when you make Pilot observe the sheeps for a couple of times. That's actually what I really like about the original OFF itself and It's fangames. You can come back to the game and still manage to find something new for yourself each time you visit it.
By the way, Penta (my fav OFF OC) was originally made to be a Confinium OC, BUT THEN SOMETHING WENT HORRIBLY WRONG and now he's a character of his own story, which I want to make real someday hopefully.
And for the last, I also still have some old cosplays on Pilot and Omni in Pony Town eheheh
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So that concludes my expirience with the game and it's characters, I guess. Thank you Xin for making this amazing game. Even if it's not completed, It still brings joy and happy memories to me and a lot of people who played it. Thank you for leaving a print on my teenage years. When you ever feel down, I hope that you will remember that there are people from all around the globe that appreciate you and the things you do. You matter.
(If anyone wants to do something similar to this post, you're more than welcome! No need for tagging or anything, just make your fav creators feel appreciated by telling your own stories and some nice words to them!)

polyvbs hcs cause i love them sm and they’re driving me nuts
- first off queer hcs. akito is a trans bi dude (he/him,) kohane is trans and queer (she/they,) an is bigender and bi (he/she,) and toya is nb and omni (any prns).
- an is so affectionate its scary. but god akito is worse once he gets comfy. at the start he’s hesitant, but once he gets comfy with it hes cuddling all the time. he’ll sling his arms around his partners necks and lean on them when they’re sitting or have them sitting on his lap or lay in theirs and GEGG R FGRGR HE LOVES AFFECTION!!!
- toyas hair is midlength bc gender and kohane often does stuff w it, whether its small braids, a bun, ponytail, or just puts accessories in it, she loves it
- whenever the shark comes for akito all of vbs will not go to school just to get cheesecake, heating pads, plushies, and affectionate for their bf. same w an but she can actually show up to school w/o dying so,,,
- the shinonomers live w the momois and toya is a tenma obviously and so is kanade tehe so airi, ena, kanade, saki, and tsukasa dont even have to ask when 3/4 of vbs show up at their doorstep
- toya writes little notes for them sometimes and always always ALWAYS texts them gm and gn and ilys accompanying them. also she will keep their favorite snacks packed wherever they go
- kohane constantly makes stuff for vbs an dthey all cry /pos
- artist akito is so real and yes his sketchbook is filled with vbs and yes he will scream if anyone sees his sketches of them
- an has so many nicknames for them all its disgusting /pos
- all of the are nd, kohane and toya are autistic, an has adhd, and akito has both, so someone always has stuff prepared in cases of meltdowns or sensory overload.
- kohane and toya most definitely have to drag akito and an into studying, but they make is easier for em
- toya is often worried abt dressing really fem so whenever he does vbs serves as his own cheerleading squad
- before akito and ena moved in w airi and the momois, an would always walk him home bc he was anxious abt it, and they had their own little texting code so an knew he was ok when he left his house. (boooo shinodad BOOOOO)
- toya knew akito before he transitioned and always reassures him whenever he’s dysphoric
- they all just cuddle sometimes when shit gets rough
- they have a playlist for each other bc they’re all so in love
andddd thats all i can think of rn but I’ll probably add more to this later 👍🏼

Here are some new honorifics I came up with! (And don't forget to check out this post that lists some already existing gender neutral honorifics.)
♡ General:
Nr. - "neutral"; can also pronounce as 'ner' Nb. - "enby"; can also pronounce as 'nib' Nn. - 'none', inspired by 'nonbinary' or being genderless Du. - "dual", inspired by having two genders Bd. - "blend", inspired by having two genders Tr. - "tri", inspired by having three genders Pn. - "pan", like 'pangender' or pan-anything Omn. - "omni", like 'omnigender' or omni-anything Ab. - "ab", like 'abinary' Mv. or Mvr. - "maverique" or "maverick"; can also pronounce as 'mav' Vd. - "void", inspired by 'gendervoid' Xr. - "zer" Xrs. - "zers"; can be a soft or hard S (The previous two can also be Zr. and Zrs.)
♡ Dragon Inspired:
Dra. or Drg. - "dragon"; can also pronounce as 'drag' Drc. - "draconic"; can also pronounce as 'drak' Hd. or Hrd. - "hoarder"; can also pronounce as 'herd' Fl. - "flame" Fr. or Fir. - "fire"; can also pronounce as 'fear' or 'fur' Wng. - "wing" Fng. - "fang" Str. or Stm. - "storm" Srp. - "serp", inspired by 'serpent' Wyr. or Wr. - "wyrm"
♡ Other Nonhuman Inspired:
Cr. - "cryptid" Rb. - "robot"; can also pronounce as 'rob' or 'robe' Cy. or Cb. - "cyborg"; can also pronounce as 'cy' or 'cybe' Mns. or Mtr. - "monster" Crt. - "creature" Om. - "omen"; can also pronounce as 'ome' or 'om' A. or Al. - "alien" Mg. or Mag. - "magic"; can also pronounce as 'maj' or 'mage' Amg. - "amalg", inspired by 'amalgamation' Atm. - "autom" like the beginning of 'automaton'
♡ Nature Inspired:
W. or Ww. - "willow" Asp. - "aspen" Pne. - "pine" Frn. - "fern" Flw. - "flower"; can also pronounce as 'flow' Stg. - "stag" F. or Fe. - "fae" or "faerie" (note that 'Fe' is the elemental abbreviation for iron, and iron is toxic to actual faeries. Might be good to keep in mind for faekin and fae headmates!) Flr. - "flora"; can also pronounce as 'fler' Fn. - "fauna" Lf. - "leaf" Bg. - "bug" Vrd. - "verd", inspired by 'verdant'
Do honorifics seem kind of silly? Well, besides the formality of them, they could work for anyone who might view them as a status. Fictives might have a certain ranking or status from their source. Otherkin might see their species as having some kind of required rank or formality based on the culture. Nonhumans in general might want to do away with any honorifics that refer to them as human, gendered or not. I think they could be useful and fun! 💙💚
Some example sentences below:
"This is Nr. Apollo and xe are visiting the local college to talk about xer experiences as an agender person. Have you been to one of xer lectures? I love to listen to xem talk. Go check out Nr. Apollo when you get the chance."
"Cy. Silver doesn't consider itself human and instead, it is robotkin! Its special interest is technology, old video games, and documentaries on animals. I hope Cy. Silver takes care of itself today!"
"Say hello to Str. Orion when you see em. Ey are headed to the store right now to get emself some new pencils. Ey really like to draw mythical creatures in eir sketchbook. If you ask, ey might show you some of eir work."

Mod Omni: Had to search through my old sketchbooks to find out how to get back in this account. Turned out to be on the first concept page for PsyTwi. Now I gotta find Dexter and Doctor Whooves’ blog info. Then I’ll have everyone back.
Got a completely new look now and rebranded. Finally feels right. I am eldritch cosmic horror incarnate!

A couple of days later, Error was knocking on the door where he thought Ink, and at least one of the kids, might have been.  Despite how everything went down with rescuing Cross, he had pushed himself straight back into his daily routine. He was still stressed, especially about Malevolence finding out he was alive, but he pushed that away.
Ink had managed to bring himself out of hiding after the first day and a half, mostly because he missed the kids and he knew they missed him. He called for Error to come in and was currently lying on the floor of the room, drawing, with Palette and Pic.
Gradient was in the room with them, reading a book while Stain slept, curled against his brother. Error smiled at the crew, Moku peeking out from behind his legs.
“Daddy!” Moku called, waving from where he was still behind Error. He’d spent all day with Error, attempting to bake cookies for Cross.
Pic was sitting against Ink, as quiet as ever while watching him draw. Ink looked up when Error came in, "Hey Ruru, hey Moku. Come to join me?"
“Yea!” Moku giggled, running over and nearly tripping before Errors strings caught him. The boy froze for a second before giggling and crawling out of the safety net Error built.
“I would but I came to check in on you all. The blues might come in soon too… and PJ left for Omni’s again so…” Error shrugged a bit.
Ink nodded, "I'm alright with the Blues coming, and so long as PJ got there safe, it's alright.”
“Okay…” Error sighed and looked over to Gradient and Stain.
“They still don’t leave your side, do they?” He whispered, knowing that the blues would have run up there soon anyway. Stain shifted in his sleep at the new noises and Gradient leaned down to flick him in the forehead.
Ink shook his head, "It's rather sweet, and I don't mind their company... they are my children..." Ink looked down at his sketchbook as he picked up a new drawing tool, adjusting his position so Moku could climb into his lap. Palette was sitting on the other side of Pic, slapping paints onto a canvas.
“Oh, no doubt… it’s just kinda cute is all…” Error hummed, watching as Stain opened his eyes and shoved Gradient's book in retaliation for being awoken. Moku scrambled into Ink's lap, looking up at his dad with a big grin. “Pops and I made cookies for Papa today!”
"Oh did you?" Ink smiled down at Moku. "I'm sure he'll love them- he'll probably visit soon I imagine.”
He looked back up at Error for a moment, seeming to try and confirm so. He'd kept himself a bit in the dark, with his hiding and all.
Error shrugged a bit but then nodded. He’d been waiting for Ink to feel a bit more comfortable again before they made plans but all it would take would be a call. He then stumbled forward as Bluescreen ran into his legs. The younger of the blues was shaking and Error picked him up. “Someone’s outside!” Blueprint yelled as he followed his little brothers.
“Someone like who?” Error asked, suddenly focused in.
“Someone we didn’t know… just showed up,”
"What did they look like?" Ink set his sketchbook and tools aside, moving to pull Moku off his lap to stand. "Tall and dark?"
Print nodded, whimpering a bit as he clutched onto Errors pant leg.
“Shit. Moku, come here,” Gradient immediately ushered the second youngest over and then moved to take Blueprint away from Error, reaching to take Blueprint's hand.
“We’re already all up here so we’ll treat this like the safe room?” He asked, turning to Stain. The teen was just sort of standing there.
“I can feel him…” Stain whispered, sounding scared.
"The kids should stay up here. Error, go and make sure there are no other kiddos anywhere downstairs. I'll take care of the rest," Ink moved to head out of the room, working on getting his sash off.
“Dad…” Stain whispered. He didn’t know what he wanted to say. Maybe it was ‘don’t put yourself in danger again’ or ‘be safe’.
“Will do. I think this is everyone but I’ll do a headcount and a look around. Gradient, Stain. You know how to keep peace here. Pal, you’re twelve buddy, think you can help out?” Error hummed and Stain stepped towards him until he looked back at his siblings.
Palette nodded as he moved to stand, "I can help, Pa, what do I need to do?"
Ink moved to head downstairs, toward the door... and an inevitable battle. He'd already gotten his sash off, and his emotion was quickly draining from his eyelights.
“Can you help keep the younger kids entertained? Gradient will help too but we need everyone to stay in here and have fun,” Error smiled at his son. While he took inventory of the children around him, minus the oldest few, Stain took that moment to sneak past him and ran down the steps. He wasn't exactly following Ink as much as following the tug of negativity that he could feel.
“Damn…”
Palette nodded, knowing that helping entertain the kids would help his parents.
Ink had ended up grabbing a hatchet on the way down, and was approaching the front door, expecting Malevolence to crash through it at any moment.
Stain was nearby, staying out of view as the door exploded open, tearing off its hinges and flying into the living room nearby.
“Not it for cleaning that one,” he muttered.
There Malevolence stood. He was still out of Stain’s view but definitely in Inks and he looked formidable
Ink had his sash of paints in one hand and the hatchet in the other, though he moved to throw the sash at Malevolence as a sign that he wouldn't back down. He then stepped back into a fighting stance, basically laser-focused on Malevolence. It was obvious he wouldn't go down easy, if at all.
Malevolence glared at Ink, practically seething. “Where. Is. Cross?” He hissed and Stain gulped, trying to find a way to spot Malevolence without being heard by Ink or spotted by Malevolence.
"Sure as hell not here, and you shouldn't be either," Ink gritted his teeth a bit, waiting for Malevolence to try any sort of attack on him.
Malevolence’s tentacles lashed out, pushing through the doorframe and making the wall shake. The blues could be faintly heard crying out upstairs.
Stain yelped and stumbled backwards, into Malevolence’s view, to avoid a wood shard that went flying at his face. Malevolence turned to him and smirked a bit.
“Then I want my son,” he hissed and Stain scrambled farther away from the door
Ink glanced at Stain before taking a step toward Malevolence, "You know I won't give him to you, Malevolence. At least, I hope you would know."
“Malevolence? Oh! I like that! And I don’t care. I want him. If I can’t have Cross, who you shouldn’t have taken, then I’ll take the kid,” he didn’t even really know Stain's name. Stain whimpered a bit as one of his tentacles came for him.
Ink quickly threw his hatchet at the tentacle, with fairly accurate aim, to lop it off, before moving to stand in front of Stain. He wanted to protect his baby.
“Dad…” Stain scrambled to his feet and focused on Malevolence, who was looming in front of them.
“I want him, Ink. I gave you fifteen years with him and you took one of mine, that means I need repayment,”
"You. Don't. Need. Shit." Ink quickly moved to grab the hatchet again, "Stain, get upstairs!"
He quickly turned on Malevolence again, ready to pretty much jump at him.
“But… dad he’s really strong, I can feel it… what if you get hurt?” Stain whispered and then screamed as a tentacle made it past Ink and grabbed Stain's arm.
Ink rushed to, once again, slice the tentacle, "I'm not worried about me!"
“But I am!” Stain cried out, stumbling back from where he’d been grabbed, closer to the stairs.
Error hurried down the hall, spotting Stain just out of grabs from the top of the staircase. He could also see a little bit of ink and one of Malevolence’s tentacles but that meant if he moved too far down the stairs, or wrapped Stain in his strings, Malevolence might see him and that would ruin the effect of essentially faking his own death
Ink stood in front of Stain, hatchet still in hand, "You're going to have to go through me before you ever get him!"
“We both know I can, Ink. And I will if I need to,”
Error took a step or two down the stairs. He couldn’t speak, not when Malevolence was so close, but he needed to get close enough to grab Stain with his strings and pull him closer without hurting him.
"Then try it, see what happens," Ink gripped the hatchet tighter.
“You don’t have any right, to withhold my son from me,” Malevolence lashed out at Ink again, although he was watching Stain who was cowering just beyond the bottom of the stairs, crying. “Huh… I’ll have to fix that first then,” he grumbled to himself
"You have no right to try and call him your son after you abandoned him," Ink took half a step toward Malevolence to try and keep his attention off Stain.
Malevolence laughed and focused back in on Ink.
“Abandoned him? No, I simply let you do all the hard work of raising, and even then you failed. He’s over there crying. My son should be better than that,” he hissed and Error took that moment to run down the stairs and grab Stain, pulling him up the stairs while Malevolence was distracted.
"You kicked us out when he didn't look like you- he isn't your son, Malevolence!" He pointed the hatchet at Malevolence, a bit of a threat, and a challenge.
“Well, he certainly has my abilities!” Malevolence snapped, his eyes focused on the hatchet before going to look at Stain, who was gone.
“Ahh, it seems your pet destroyer found that he was missing a kid,” he snarled and stepped back. He could fight Ink by himself, maybe even defeat him, but with Error closer in the equation, it wasn’t as easy a battle.
"No one in my house is a pet," He took another step toward Malevolence, sensing his wariness. "But you're all bark and no bite, huh?"
Malevolence snarled at him but kept his eyes on the staircase, “No, I just don’t want to deal with a traitor and my traitorous son today,”
"You wouldn't have to if you'd just left us alone!" He took yet another step forward, even if Malevolence didn't move.
Malevolence took a step backward. “Just give me back Cross and things will be okay huh? I’ll leave if you just tell me where he is.”
He’d given up going after Stain and had returned to his main goal; Cross.
"You say that like I know everything about anything anywhere."
“He’s with my brother then? Of course,” he hissed, “if you wouldn’t keep him here, he’d be with someone close to you…”
Malevolence retreated then, leaving a destroyed front door and the quiet sobs of Stain upstairs
Ink gritted his teeth a bit as he watched Malevolence go, "Damn it-"
Error heard the quiet and carefully went down the stairs, an arm wrapped around Stain, just in case, “Are we clear?”
"We are, but Dream's not," Ink moved to sheath his hatchet at his side and go to pick up his sash.
“Shit,” Error hissed, letting Stain go as the boy ran to his dad, wrapping his arms around Ink as soon as he could. “I’ll call, give them a heads up…”
Ink nodded, "Good idea, but we'll need to get the kids settled and go help them."
He wrapped his arms tightly around Stain. "I've got you, baby..."
“Why does he only want me when I serve some purpose?”
“Because he’s an ass…” Error grumbled as he grabbed his phone to call and warn Dream.
"It's just how he is, and how it will be for a while..."
It wasn't long before Dream picked up.
Stain clung to his dad for a few moments until Gradient came bolting down the stairs, a mix of looking pissed and terrified.
Ink looked up when Gradient came down, "I need to go make sure Dream and Cross are alright."
Gradient nodded and moved to put a hand on his brother's shoulder, which easily shifted Stain's attention
Ink moved to let go of Stain and set his paints nearby, "Stain, you shouldn't follow me. Not again. I won't have you in danger again because of him."
“O-okay,” Stain nodded, hiccuping and wiping away flowing tears.
Ink looked at Error, "Do you want my help with the kids before I go?"
“I… maybe? Scarlet was in her room when it happened so she’s a bit shaken up but most of them don’t realize what happened… Palette has been playing a game with them so it’s just getting her settled and getting these two there and calm. It shouldn’t be long,” Error hummed.
Ink nodded, "I'll help where I can before I go, we at least have a little time before Malevolence actually gets there," Ink moved to head upstairs.
“Considering Dreams moved and this version of Malevolence can’t just track his positivity as easily, we should have time, yea,” Error moved to wrap his arm around Stain and Gradient, ushering them quietly upstairs to where the rest of the kids were. Moku and Scarlet were peeking out the doors but ducked in right after they spotted their parents, thinking they’d been sneaky enough not to be seen. Scarlet still looked like she’d been crying.
Ink moved to enter the room, "Hey, kiddos, how are we doing up here?"
He'd noticed and moved to pick up Scarlet.
Scarlet leaned against Ink.
“We’re playing a game, daddy!” Print hummed. He’d decided to help watch Pic and had moved to toddler to sit next to him.
“A game? What game?” Stain forced a smile and wiped his tears, moving to sit next to Print, scooping up the youngest into his arms and putting Pic in his lap. It seemed like Scarlet calmed down rather quickly once everyone was in the room.
Pic didn't seem to mind, usually comfortable wherever he was placed, and Ink walked over to the rest of the kids, "Do you mind playing the game for a bit longer? Downstairs is a little bit of a mess, and Daddy needs to clean it up."
“Okay!” The kids seemed mostly content, although Stain was still trying to not cry, and Scarlet squirmed to be let go, not also wanting to plan.
Ink moved to set Scarlet back down, "You go play with your siblings, ok? I'll be back soon."
Scarlet nodded and moved to join the game.
“Dad, papa… be safe!” Stain called as Error turned to leave the room.
"We will be," Ink waved and stepped out of the room.
Error sighed as he shut the door.
“Remind me how we ended up with 9 kids?” He grumbled, although meant no actual anger. “Ready to go help our family?”
Ink nodded, moving to open a portal, "I am."

TRENCHBOUND INFODUMP
PART 1 - Trench and Trenchling anatomy, The Omni, Mari The Caretaker, StarDust, and StarBreak
I'm putting my typing to good use and I'm going to be cataloguing all I know of Trenchbound here. Trenchbound is my little paracosm about creatures dealing with memory loss, trauma, and being creatures. In these posts I'm going to type all sorts of lore along with detailed IDs of all my character designs.
Tagged as Trenchbound Lore to keep everything in one place
(also its very long)
cw/ images of needles + nudity , mentions of trauma + blood
To start, Trenchlings are very freeform humanlike creatures, known for their large ears and design elements that come from real and fictional animals, except for strict mammals. Trenchlings are typically classified as Reptilian, Amphibian, Avian, Arthropodal, Marine, or Mythical. There has yet to be a Mythical Trenchling however that is of strict Mammal influence, all known mythical types have some sort of attribute related to the other classes. Hybrid classes are allowed, yet none have yet been designed. A trenchlings colors and patterns are not strict, a trenchling can be marked with any kind of design. Some trenchlings can also be made with bioluminescent marks.
A trenchling's anatomy has 2 states, damaged, and retreating. In each, blood is replaced by what is called simply "innards", which can be any kind of matter or energy; some trenchlings have thick liquids like slime, some can have a sort of ash filled air that erupts from them, some can be solid crystals, some can spew neverending energy such as flames or wind. These cannot be controlled however, and are only shown when a trenchling's thick skin is somehow damaged or pierced, they also inspire how a trenchling's tears, blush, and insides are colored and how they react. When harmed slightly and able to heal, a trenchling goes into a damaged state, in which they have bones and other organs. Their innards slowly begin to somehow heal the wound on the skin, via oddly colored scabs that match the color of the innards. Think of this being a cut, scabbing, scarring, and healing. However, if a trenchling is harmed immensely, enough to cause a human to bleed out and die, a trenchling's body goes into a retreating state, where they are able to dissolve into a mass of their innards. These innards can be placed somewhere safe, where a trenchling can slowly heal their body and come back fresh and renewed.
Trenchbound takes place in "The Trench", which is in theory an area for lost souls to rekindle a physical body in order to have a post-death therapy, be able to be comfortable to move on. The Trench is littered with structures, plants, and animals that are made to resemble ones humans would know, such as empty stores and homes that could be furnished.
The Trench itself was made by a god called "The Omni"
Tumblr media
ID/ An image from the artists sketchbook of a creature known as Omni, depicted as a single large eye with a ring of light around it, with 6 squid like tentacles underneath; 4 arms and a pair of club tentacles. To the left of the image is a size comparison with the character Mari (who we will discuss next), in which The Omni's pupil is about as large as the character Mari, showing their immense size. Above the size comparison image, we see the face of the character, Mari, looking up and sobbing. END ID/
The Trench is domelike in structure, and at the top, there is a large needle known simply as "The Injector". The Injector works by taking in the powdered life of anyone that is inserted, known as Soul Dust, and injects it into the naturally growing sacs that fill the ceiling. Here, a trenchling is born. The injector also softly glows, imitating a gentle sunlight, helping a sense of time in the trench. The trench itself however is dark, only illuminated by bioluminescent plant life.
Tumblr media
ID/ concept sketches of The Injector, a mechanical arm connected to a large syringe type needle. At the bottom we see how the sacs develop trenchlings like embryos, showing a closeup of 3 stages of development, starting from a typical vertebrate embryo ending at a young egged trenchling. To the left, we see a closeup of the first embryonic stage.
From here, the Trenchling was meant to develop until hatching from the ceiling, and caught by a caretaker. The hatchling's stay dormant after hatching for up to 1 month at times, before they wake up and regain consciousness from their past life. The top of the trench is a web like structure of walkways that would allow someone to walk through and check on each of these sacs. This someone isn't able to be the Omni however, so the Omni had to delegate one trenchling to be the caretaker.
That trenchling was Mari.
Tumblr media
ID/ A symmetrical picture of Mari. Mari is a dumbo octopus inspired trenchling with the colors pink, cyan, magenta, teal, and grey. Xey have 6 walking tentacles with a teal webbing between them, with 2 hand tentacles. Xey have large upward tilted ears that have fins connecting the lobe to xyr cheeks, with 2 magenta spines and cyan webbing. Xyr main body is pink with a cyan line running laterally down each one of xyr tentacles, along with the pattern of a large cyan diamond with a smaller magenta in the center. Xyr arms do not have this pattern, and are instead a solid magenta with an arrow shaped cyan marking at the shoulders and the straight line running down over the magenta. The underside of all xyr tentacles is grey with suction cups. Xey have more cyan lines, one that separates the base of each tentacle to xyr hips, along with one that runs laterally on the front and back that connects the hip line to xyr neck. Xyr neck is marked with another arrow design that points down their body, and is a large cyan arrow shape with a smaller magenta one on the inside. On the back, this arrow points up instead. Xey have magenta top surgery scars that end in a downward angle where they end in the center of xyr chest, with cyan nipples. On xyr face, Mari has rounded cyan diamond shapes that outline xyr eyes, with a magenta arrow shape pointing upwards under the cyan diamond marks. Xyr pink ears have cyan insides, with a line separating the helix from the rest of the ear. Xey have long wavy black hair that's almost always put up in a bun, with a strand on the right side sticking out, partially covering xyr right eye. Xey have small round eyebrows, with eyes having purple scleras with lavender irises and pink pupils, with xyr pupils being horizonal with round bulges on each end. This image shows Mari after xyr right eye was blinded, making the sclera paler, the iris grey, and the pupil large, white, and circular.
Tumblr media
ID/ a clothed image of Mari, xey wear a longsleeve, thin, white turtleneck with a thicker black tunic overtop. The tunic has a grey belt and is long enough to cover halfway down Mari's leg tentacles. The drawing itself is simplified in style and is symmetrical.
Mari is a complex character. Chosen by The Omni, xey were given a divine job to care for trenchlings in a maternal way and to lead them into accepting themselves, their past death, and moving on via a hole in the wall trench, which supposedly allowed them to move on. Along with this, around the circumference of the trench, a large castle like structure was made, filled with different watchtowers and storage units filled with goods that could be used for agriculture, science, infrastructure, it's large size made it have almost everything that would be needed for anyone.
Mari was not known for being kind, nor for being able to understand empathy very well. Mari had more brains than anything, taking an objective look at the world instead of a more emotional one.
The Omni instructed Mari of who xey were, what xyr job was, and that all the trenchlings will begin to hatch in 2 months time. The Omni then left, never to return.
Mari xyrself was a victim in death, having suffered severe trauma that xey do not go into. A trenchling's death in essence is not one that one needs to go into for their character, for the trench is also a place where one renews themselves. Mari was given the ability though to completely emphasize with another with just a touch. By holding Mari's hands, you and xem would completely go through eachothers memories together in a way of understanding eachother, also being able to reminisce about certain things together, sharing visualizaitons and thoughts. It's a beautiful ability that can be used to have very close and personal moments. This was The Omni's gift to Mari, knowing xey struggled with empathy.
Mari was accepting of this duty and happily began to care for each and every trenchling in their egg forms. However, one hatched early, about one week in. When Mari came to lift the hatchling off of the floor, a flood of the child's past life came to Mari.
Trauma, Pain, Suffering. Events that made Mari shudder and tear up in pain. Mari forced xyrself to not share xyr own memories, as to not hurt the hatchling. Holding the hatchling close, sobbing, xyr tears being ice cold. Unexpectedly, as xey held the hatchling, xey somehow, with a combination of xyr emotions, wanting all of this pain to not be on the poor hatchling..
Xey completely wiped the memories of the trenchling.
In a moment of shock and panic, realizing they just killed the soul of someone..
Xey had an epiphany.
"Why should someone be forced to live again with having gone through death? Why not end it and create life anew again? Why force yourself to heal from this when instead, you could simply remove the events, the memories that harmed you?"
With this philosophy, Mari had a new mindset. Mari could not care for these trenchlings, Mari instead needed to help them. Mari vowed for xyrself to remove the harmful memories of each trenchling, and to let them simply life a whole new life, where they would never learn about hate, pain, anything. This hatchling xey had now, xey kept in xyr own domain, and ceased xyr watchful eye over the sacs. Xey instead opted for reengineering the injector, trying to find out what exactly how it worked, what the soul dust truly was.
Xey planned to make a counter for the Soul Dust in the injector, and made a syphon to take small portions out day by day, for examination, using the makeshift supplies that were stored in xyr home. The sacs slowly started to hatch and fell hundreds of feet to the floor of the trench. Mari kept a close eye, knowing how long it took for the trenchlings to become conscious, however xyr studies on the dust distracted them, and they woke up on the floor, creating their own society.
Mari's hatchling however, the one prematurely hatched and mind wiped, grew and followed Mari in xyr studies. The hatchling was similar to a human child due to their premature nature, and would end up maturing slower than the rest of the trenchlings that hatched at the regular date. Mari's hatchling has no name as of today. They will be developed at a later date.
Mari had finished the counter to Soul Dust, and named it Star Dust due to its shimmer. It came in two parts, one part would paralyze the trenchling by making their brain think that they are being flashed with blinding light, while the 2nd part would make them go unconscious, as the dust ate at their memories. Combined, this could be syphoned along with the soul dust to alter the trenchling in their sacs, making them hatch without any of their past in their mind. However at this point, approximately 20 trenchlings had hatched and regained consciousness on the floor of the trench below. They stayed centered under the dim light of the injector and built a society there. Mari then knew what to do. Mari took a breath and entered the trench floor, obscured by the natural flora of the area, with satchels of the two stardust components on xyr belt. With a cloak that covered all of xyr skin, making xyr "gift" of forced empathy useless, xey took charge and grabbed every last trenchling by force, using the stardust components to paralyze and wipe the minds of each and every one.
Some trenchlings took it well, such as the first one with a spider like body, some did not, such as one with a snake like body that almost made Mari pass out from a blow to the head with their tail. The final trenchling did not take it well at all, Mari having used too much force and ended up severely injuring their legs, having to simply leave them like that before the wiped trenchlings regained consciousness
And then, the hard part was done. Mari then had one more job to do - the injector.
Xey started by finding a way to temporarily pause the work of the injector, xey did so by slicing a few wires (two) until hitting the main power one. This cut the lights of the trench, and unintentionally led to some of the sacs decaying, falling to the ground below. Mari then developed mass quantities of stardust. The creation of new trenchlings stopped in this timeframe, until 1 month later, when the hatchling grew slightly more mature and Mari finished xyr plan.
Mari asked for xyr hatchling's help in rubbing the light component of the Star Dust to lead a light to the injector, in which mari carried a long tube that would connect to the injector, slowly incorporating xyr combined Star Dust directly into each sac, along with their soul dust. A careful procedure as Mari pried open a hole, stuck the tubing in, then instructed xyr hatchling into starting the flow of Star Dust.
While fixing it in place however, the Dust spewed forth, contacting one of the sliced wires from earlier, creating a blinding white light that lit up the entire trench. This blinded Mari's right eye on contact, causing xem to collapse. Xey grabbed the tube in a panic for support but pulled it out on accident, causing the light to stop but Star Dust to spray for miles over the Trench. Regaining stability after an hour, Mari came to xyr senses on xyr mistake and fixed the tube in place, causing the injector to glow slightly brighter, and once xey reconnected the wires, xyr plan worked. Mari could see the injector start up and inject the next sac with the now glowing Soul Dust and Star Dust mixture.
In Mari's eyes, the world has been saved. Mari, victorious, left back to xyr home, relishing in xyr victory, and Mari could now raise xyr trenchling as well, almost like a parent and child. However, xey never plan on telling the truth of any of this to xyr hatchling.
Mari sees the world as fixed, and now stays in xyr domain with xyr hatchling. Xey stand atop watchtowers, unseen by trenchlings, watching them like an ant farm. Xey have a slight superiority complex to the trenchlings now, instead of xyr past maternal and caring view, however, xey still care, however not very visible.
To the trenchlings below, the events after their mind wipe were known as The Silence, which is where empty gelatinous sacs fell to the ground, filled with horrifying underdeveloped trenchlings, and StarBreak, where it rained with light and trenchlings had to stay inside for weeks due to fear of "the light" hurting them. It's said that one of the trenchlings was exposed to "the light", and something horrifying was made of them.
