“The Night’s Watch is a noble calling!”

Tyrion laughed. “You’re too smart to believe that. The Night’s Watch is a midden heap for all the misfits of the realm.

“I’ve seen you looking at Yoren and his boys. Those are your new brothers, Jon Snow, how do you like them?

“Sullen peasants, debtors, poachers, rapers, thieves, and bastards like you all wind up on the Wall, watching for grumkins and snarks and all the other monsters your wet nurse warned you about.

“The good part is there are no grumkins or snarks, so it’s scarcely dangerous work.

(This idea includes a spoiler for the DLC. Since it’s still a bit fresh, I’m issuing that warning for those who haven’t played it yet.) ... ... ... So okay, you all know how the Cuphead DLC ends, right ? The big fight with Saltbaker, who wants to use a soul to make his Wondertart. Well, imagine if he’d won the fight, trapping all three silverware in his grasp. He’d cackle loud and proud that he’s on the verge of true wonder, and that they will serve him well. What he doesn’t see is the cat newspaper boy who came in the bakery hearing all the commotion, and catches wind the Chef’s dastardly plan. Not wanting to see such heroes (who also had made quite a few papers sell) get their final cut, he hops on Chalice’s barque and goes back to the Isles, where he shouts his latest find. At first he’s just told to hush, but when he mentions the Cup Bros, heads start to turn. Back with the Chef, he’s sharpening his tools, his monstrous shadow looming over the terrified little souls. Ms.Chalice apologises to the boys for dragging them in this mess, and they in turn bemoan that Elder Kettle is going to feel mighty lonely now.  The edge of the knife is above them, the Chef’s slasher smile at its peak, and no escape. A grim ending to this adventure... But then, the bakery’s bell rings. Chef Saltbaer ignores it at first, but it keeps ringing. This spells a lot of clients, and what a chef would he be if he didn’t make a sale like that ? Besides, they’re not going anywhere, he promises his poor prisonners. Saltbaker pops back behind the counter, his jolly mask once more on as he welcomes his famished customers. But when he opens his eyes, he realises these are not hungry for any pastries. He finds himself looking at every one of the debtors that had been freed from the Devil’s grasp. And they’re looking positively seething.

Outnumbered and sensing the murderous hostility, the Chef pitifully tries to offer them some free samples. They pull the samples outside. And the Chef with it. The bakery’s front is soon alit with flames, stars, lightning, bombs, ghosts, seeds, and roughousing of a hundred other kinds. The only other thing heard are Chef Saltbaker’s cries as he’s being shaken up whithin every grain of his life. The silverware trio is wondering what is all the big ruckus upstairs. The cat newspaper boy appears, telling them the great news, and smashing their prisons open. Cuphead and Mugman are back to their bodies, and Chalice is a free spirit. They poke outside to see the debtors circled around the cracked, bruised, but still alive Chef Saltbaker. The fiend wasn’t making it to any astral plane, not even the ol’ fashioned way.

And it all ends on a big celebration. The Cups thank their friends for saving them like they did them, with Chalice happily twirling around them. Maybe even a smooch from whomever they’re shipped with~? (Cough cough Mugmaria and BaronCup for life cough cough) And of course, Saltbaker being given his community service around the new bosses, themselves part of the celebration after understanding the Silverware Trio were just as victims of this scheme.
