Stretchy Signature by Enneh

They say some people become their own brand, but this is taking it a bit far! Phoebe Lexton is better known as "Phlex" by the average Canadian, and by the world in general! She's a celebrity in no small part thanks to her super-stretchy body, but also in no small part to her savvy use of publicity coupled with her confident demeanor, silly but witty sense of humor, and of course, her shameless hustle. When she's being photographed, she won't hesitate to strike a pose or make a face, always enjoying showing off and attempting to look her best, but at official photoshoots, where she has more time to prepare, she pulls out the real tricks, and writing her pseudonym with her own elongated body is one trick she's particularly proud of! Dozens of hours or practice paid off handsomely, as this shot becomes a key piece of her branding and presskits going forward. Enneh is really good at drawing noodles arranged into complex paths like this, so I knew they would be ideal for a comm like this, and they surpassed my expectations! The addition of her neck for use as the "l" is a phenomenal touch, and I am overjoyed with how this one turned out overall! If you catch them open for comms, I highly recommend going for it! :D Hope you enjoy! ~ Bonkie

The Phlex is a nocturnal insect with strong Psychic Force. Similar to a mosquito, it depends on other creatures to get its nourishment. But the Phlex is a much more extreme case than that.

Whenever it needs its vital nutrients, it will fly around at night in search of some unsuspecting, usually sleeping creature. It will then land on their head and inject the Psychic Force it stores in its body, controlling its new host like a puppet. The host will then be controlled to find and consume whatever the Phlex assumes is food, and will continue to do so until it is satisfied. It cannot sense taste through its host, nor can it gauge how full the host's stomach is. It can't even feel pain through the host if they eat something possibly hazardous. And once the Phlex is satisfied, it will detach itself and fly away, leaving the host with an itchy scalp and an exceedingly bad tummy-ache.

In this image, this poor Leppicorn just broke into a human's home at night and consumed a lot already thanks to the Phlex. We can see he's been eating a smoked ham, a bread roll, half a stick of butter, half a carton of egg whites, some cran-mango juice, and part of a can of soda (like, the can itself). We haven't see everything else he's had so far -- half a (still) frozen pizza, dry macaroni, three bananas (peel and all), a cinnamon stick, a box of raisins, the box the raisins came in, and four strawberry-scented wax cubes.

Gaia Phoebe by Longius

Gaia Phoebe - taking "becoming one with nature" in a really extreme direction! The idea behind this AU is that Phoebe found a way to fuse herself with the ground by sheer force of will, but it just continued until her essence had essentially taken over the entire planet! It took a long time, but eventually her stretchy nature permeated the crust, then the mantle, and the core, and over millennia, she finally unfurled from the nearly spherical planet into a planet-sized woman! Or maybe a living, woman-shaped planet? Whatever she is, she's still as stretchy as ever, and a moon of her own to play with! She's got to be careful with her gravitational forces - don't want to break the jewel of her skies! Unfortunately there aren't any more people on her to see it anyway, since ecosystems don't work so well when they're on a humanoid-shaped, stretchy planet that keeps moving around. But even in her chaotic troposphere, new life is, uh, finding a way - maybe one day a new breed of people resilient enough will emerge to admire the moon once again! This was an idea from Longius himself, which actually came out of left field for me, which might be a surprise given the general weirdness of my stuff, but there you go! He did a great job rendering it and I love the details like her "cold feet" and ice-tipped mountain of a nose, as well as the clouds forming her hair! The eyes glowing with heat from her core was an idea from me, and the whole thing came together well with Longius's composition on this piece! Hope you enjoy! ~ Bonkie

Extended Greeting by Noah-Wave

🤝 Sometimes people expect to get up close and personal with the famous Phlex, but then she does this. Usually she has every plan to move closer and talk to them from a normal distance, but sometimes she leads with this gag to put them off balance for a moment, the mischief-maker she is! Really, it's just another excuse to show off how stretchy she is, which is obvious to anyone familiar with her - she will rarely allow a social interaction to go by where she does NOT remind the other party that she's a Bendy. This was an off-the-cuff dumb idea I sent to Noah-Wave before bed, and apparently he felt compelled to draw it, so I shot him some cash to make it a line-art comm! He did a great job on the perspective, as well as Phoebe's design and proportions in the top pic, and her simplified silly smile in the bottom pic! Hope you enjoy! ~ Bonkie

Fused Frenemies C.A.C

Phoebe's got her legs back, and Sophie is trying to get her personal space back! Phoebe isn't helping at all, though... ---- Continued from Fused Frenemies C.A... Phoebe extended her torso to spool out some length to coil up and sit her upper body on, half-twisting to turn towards Sophie, keeping her arms folded the whole time. "If you can still morph, maybe you can--" Phoebe's face suddenly changed as she felt something happening where her partial body and Sophie's full body met. The attachment point thickened at the base, and a pair of appendages spouted from the new thickened base. It was almost like... "Oh, my legs are growing back!" Phoebe called out cheerfully, as her new legs started to take form, knees, superficial muscle curves, and an ankle clearly taking shape, before finally Phoebe's body was whole! Her butt was still adhered to Sophie's, however. "Anyway, you had an idea?" Sophie asked, exasperated now that she had a literal entire woman stuck to her ass. "Well you could morph in such a way to detach us, right?" Phoebe suggested. Sophie's body quivered but took no new form. "Uh, what do you mean, exactly?" At this point she was not going to discourage Phoebe suggesting a transformation if it might help with their situation. "Well you can morph the points where we touch to minimize their contact area--" Phoebe began, but Sophie understood now, and her body immediately folded in on itself as it churned, assuming a new, amorphous shape, which merged somewhat into Phoebe's back, reeling Phoebe's torso in. "Oooh, that feels...interesting," Phoebe cooed, enjoying the novelty of the sensation of Sophie's flesh swimming just under the surface of her own.  Sophie began to form herself again, her body in a semi-liquid state as she formed a head and the front of her own torso, as well as legs, bracing herself against Phoebe and trying to peel herself away. Strands of her body trailed back into Phoebe's, Sophie's arms beginning to manifest from the points where her entangled strands of flesh met her torso. "Rrrrrrraaaaaah!" Sophie cried out, "Come ON! GET OFF!" She pulled as hard as she could, feeling more of herself detach, but knowing she had plenty more left to go. ---- NEXT - CHOOSE ONE: A. Sophie doesn't get herself off Phoebe, so she's going for a weird piggyback ride! B. Sophie gets free from Phoebe! But she's still pretty sticky... C. Phoebe and Sophie finally separate, but not without some lasting souvenirs! ---- Thanks to NoahWave for doing this comm for me! You should check him out, because he does awesome stuff! : D Hope you enjoy! ~ Bonkie
