dancing with the devil cuphead fanfiction continuation: explanation notes

As of right now, I'm considering continuing dancing with the devil since it's been abandoned for about a year after being started in 2017. The original author did a lot of things I disagree with as a writer after learning about how a lot of the tropes that I used to find cute and that this author also probably finds cute or rooted in some really toxic patriarchical shit.

The story went in a lot of different directions to drag out some things but didn't go into enough detail about other things like the devil and mugman's relationship and stuff like that. There's also supposed to be some hints of cuphead and King dice, but that's not really going anywhere other than cuphead saying that dice is sexy. But what's up with people writing cuphead to be antisocial and not have any friends? Also, why is cupheads usually so depicted as being guarded about his feelings? As an adult, I realize how a lot of these tropes planned it's a very serious mental health issues that get underplayed in media. Another overplayed toxic trope is that they're in a fourth situation, so I don't even know if they want to be there if it's Stockholm syndrome at some point. There's more to life than the beauty and the beast aspect, people.

The fanfiction crowd never really changes. We write all this cringy trophy shit in our teens and  twenties but then we grow up and unlearn a lot of the toxic bullshit, but a lot of us aren't writing FanFictions anymore. I'm fine with being a fan fiction writer in my thirties. I will write until I can't write anymore!

Something that I see a lot of people doing that I like is the contents of their head having influence over their functionality. I don't like how people make water bad, though. It's like passive aggressively dissing water, and I would appreciate if you kept your dehydrated lifestyle to yourself. 

For those of you who don't know, the story is about how cuphead and mugman are adults that have moved out but are really struggling paying their own bills. Elder Kettle was helping but recently cut them off and they went to the casino for some fast money because rent is due. Cuphead bets their freedom, more so than their souls, and they end up having to work for the devil for no pay, but they get a room in the casino, for a few months. So even though they're not getting paid in money, they're getting paid in room and board. 

Where the story leaves off is cuphead and mugman talking about how much fun they've had and how they fall in love with their respective pairings, and how they're about to be homeless and jobless, because their contract is about to come to an end. In the last chapter that was posted in june, mugman went to go ask the devil if they can stay, but the author added in some extra characters and some bullshit that I don't care for. I'm going to pick up from the chapter before that where they're talking about how they're going to be homeless and jobless. I'm considering rewriting that chapter, as well.

I'm aiming to finish the story in 2 or 3 chapters.

Mafioso? I don’t think so! Mafia AU 5

“What? You’re forgiving her debt, just like that? But, she’s actually paying you!” Osomatsu said surprised and slammed his hands on his desk. All the brothers looked at both of them, and Choromatsu looked practically pissed off. “Yeah, I slept on it and felt the same way this morning,” he answered looking Oso in the eyes. “Can we afford to forgive that much?” Ichi asked and Choro quickly followed up with a “No,” but he glared at Osomatsu. “Mostly because this asshole won’t give up the failed bar!” he yelled pointing at him in anime comedy style. “Fine, I’ll give you the bar!” he yelled back and Choromatsu was shocked. “Let’s just be done with this, then!” Oso said with a pout. “I’m not gonna get in the way of you having a change of heart, Karamatsu. I’ll run a delivery service or something, later, but this is timely, so it must be fate,” he said, still pouting and moving in the desk chair. Todomatsu smiled quietly to Kara, but Jyushi seemed listless. Ichi noticed and asked “What’

Mafioso? I don’t think so! 8 - END

Jack walked into the house and the first thing she heard when screaming towards the back of the house, and didn’t know what to make of it. She sat her pack by the door and walked in further to walk up to Todomatsu in the kitchen. They silently locked eyes, and she looked at him confused while he looked at her shock… dread, even. There as another scream, and then manly grunting followed and she looked towards the hallway and back to Todomatsu, who never looked away from her. Jack suddenly put her hands over her mouth and laughed, and Todomatsu laughed out of relief. “I’m just gonna go,” she said in giggles and left. Out of all the ways that could have gone, Todomatsu was happy that was the route it took! Jack took the bus into town, and went to go look at the shut down pizza place. They emptied it out quickly. She didn’t know how she felt about that. “Hola, Jack!” a small voice said running up behind her. She turned around confused at first “Carlos!” she said and ga
