Reina: Why do I keep creating these weird AUs and never update my old stories?!?!?!

Isa: ......

Reina: Anyway.... Yes I fell into the Bendy and Ink Machine fandom. Fight me.

Isa: ......

Reina: This AU has Jack and Mark as animators who currently do indie projects and upload them to Youtube. Felix works for an animation company called "MoonDusk Studios."

And I messed up Jack's voice and lines..... ;-; Honestly, they're both OOC

THIS IS NOT A SEPTIPLIER FIC. THERE AREN'T ANY SHIPS. I only used the name Septiplier because I needed a studio name for Jack and Mark, and that was the only thing that came to mind.

Enjoy.

Chapter 1: Spilt Ink

"Mark, where did you put my sketchbook?"

Mark looked up from his coffee and newspaper to give his best friend an innocent look. "I have no idea what you're talking about."

Jack crossed his arms and glared at him harder. "Mark, I'm serious. I need it because I need to see how Sa, and Warfstache are dressed to sketch the next episode."

"Perhaps it's in your room?" Mark offered simply.

"I already checked my room, you a**."

"Perhaps in our studio?"

"Gee, I didn't think to look there," Jack responded sarcastically.

"Then go check," Mark replied calmly.

"I already did!" Jack yelled exasperatedly. "Where did you put my sketchbook?"

Mark moved the newspaper and handed Jack the missing sketchbook with a huge s***-eating grin. Jack's eyebrow twitched violently as he leaned across the table and snatched the sketchbook from his roommate. Jack flipped the notebook quickly, and upon reaching the last page, he noticed that Mark had added some touches to the latest sketch. He leveled a glare, causing Mark to burst laughing.

"I really f****** hate you right now Fischbach."

"Whatever, McLoughlin," Mark smirked.

As Jack growled, the two men heard a knock on their door. Mark made a move to get up and answer it, but Jack slammed his chair back and dashed to the door. A few seconds, Jack came back with the mail.

"Why did you answer it?" Mark asked. "I could have gotten it..."

"You would have hidden the f****** letters from me," Jack snapped.

Mark held his hands up guiltily. "Guilty as charged." He got up to put his cup away.

Jack rolled his eyes and began to sort through their mail. Most of it was junk mail, so he tossed it to the side. He reached the finally letter and frowned.

Mark came back and noticed that Jack was deep in thought. He waved his hand in front of Jack's face and said, "Jack?"

"This is from Felix," Jack whispered.

"Felix? I thought he cut contact with us two years ago when we left to create Septiplier Animations."

"Evidently not," Jack replied as he began to open the letter. He pulled it out and began to read it aloud:

Dear Mark and Jack,

Hey there guys! It's been a while since we last talked. I've been busy the last two years with several projects and I wasn't able to talk. Can you guys swing by the animation studio so that we can catch up?

Your Pal,

Felix

Jack looked up at Mark. "Doesn't Felix have our emails? He could have emailed us."

"Remember, we started using a new one after we left MoonDusk Studios."

"Oh right," Jack replied. "The same goes for our phones."

"Shall we go out to see him?" Mark asked. "Our next season doesn't start for six months...."

"I don't know, man..." Jack replied. "Something's wrong."

"Agreed. Let's at least swing by the old studio to see if Felix will join us."

Jack thought about for a moment. Felix was a good friend of theirs, and the reason why they lost contact was because their old boss, Runi di Quinn, was absolutely apes***.

But if Runi left or died....

"Sounds fair enough to me," Jack replied.

Mark grabbed the keys. "Alright then. Let's go."

Reina: This is so short. 💧

Isa: It is.

Reina: Anyway, the last chapter I posted was this. This is a fanfic of Youtube and Bendy and the Ink Machine. I was trying to see what characters Jack and Mark animate, because the sketchbook plays out slightly different.

- If it was Warfstache and Sam, Mark would do something to the color schemes to anger Jack.

- If it was Isa and Elluki, Mark would edit their pictures in such a way that Jack would lose his s***.

But on the flipside....

- If MoonDusk Studios animated Bendy and Boris, Jack and Mark would have an experience similar to Bendy and the Ink Machine.

- If MoonDusk Studios animated Isa and Elluki.... Then things go down differently

As for the boss, I don't know who the owner of MoonDusk Studios should be.

Isa: Reaper

Reina: Uh no

Isa: Dr. Junkenstein

Reina: No

Isa: Wario

Reina: Double no

Isa: Hades

Reina: Pass

Isa: Palutena

Reina: In your dreams

Isa: Grima

Reina: Highly unlikely.

Isa: Irina Clockworker.

Reina: ISA WTF

Isa: *laughs*

Reina: Anyway.... What do you guys think? Depending on who you pick for the boss and Mark and Jack's characters, I'll reupload this under another chapter with more edits.

Should this become its own story? Or should I just publish the chapters here?
