The Coolest [Blank] You Know

Explaining that the reason I love art that depicts Battat staying with Tenna’s cleaved body is because it’s a perfect parallel to the fact that their relationship was built off Tenna’s denial of the “Mike”s true identities so that he could experience a hollow sense of comfort and has since passed that denialism onto Battat, who has developed an inflated sense of self importance due to both his duties as Mike as well as his conspiracy board, that relies on Tenna’s dependence, and therefore makes it impossible for Battat to let him go. This is also emphasized in Battat’s seeming inability to repair Tenna’s cleaved body in said fanart, opting instead to drag it around and speak to it as if it were still alive, representing how despite Battat giving Tenna joy and solace as Mike, he continued to enable Tenna’s bad habits in an attempt to keep him happy, therefore preventing Tenna from genuinely getting better.

Oh Battenna how your doomed-ness compels me

(the way i draw Spamton changes so often it’s not even funny)

Edit: JUST FOR THE RECORD THESE WERE DRAWN PRE-DECEMBER NEWSLETTER (not that my love of the ship went away after that just that obviously things are different now that we’ve seen Battat and Tenna directly interact)
