Ink Demonth Day 31st: Fate

Thomas knew that from the moment the "redeemed" Ink Demon joined their group, it was fate that something would go awry.

Based off the fics where a now toon Ink Demon joins the Allison, Henry, and Tom gang.

(spoilers, obv)

spiritual successor to this post, mostly I just want to talk abt a theory I've had abt tom for at least 2 years now but I don't think I've seen anybody else talk about. (feel free to correct me)

I'm going to start off comparing Tom's design between BATIM and BATDR.

as is the same with Allison, Tom looks a lot worse for wear in BATDR. he's missing the top of one ear, and several new scars, one of his overall straps is missing, and he generally looks more stained.

but the important part of this rant is that his arm is cut quite a bit higher up!

(also the patches on his knees are gone for some reason?)

presumably due to this higher cut, Tom's wearing a completely different prosthetic in BATDR

we already know abt the cycle deteriorating from Wilson and other assorted fuckery, so I don't really need to talk about that.

but now we get to may main theory, the one I've had for quite a while, and this is one I'm VERY confidant in. I've made a bad collage to demonstrate:

im pretty sure that in the first game, Tom's actually using an arm from the animatronic Bendy in chapter 4.

i mean, LOOK. THEY'RE THE SAME ARM.

but sometime between the two games, he's had to switch to a different prosthetic, possibly multiple times if the loss wasn't instant, like from a battle or something. I'm not sure where he got the new one from (of course, he's a mechanic, he could have just built it himself) but i's love to see other peoples ideas on that front.

I hate how I drew Allison, but oh well!

Here is Tom from my Au! There are some posts already about him, so yeah. I swear he isn't an ass-hole all the time. Just most of the time.

In my cast, it would probably be a tie between Tom and Sammy. Also maybe Norman? Tom (left) and Sammy (right)
