The First Draft
aka Joey is way too old to be playing with dolls
That.That fucking machine!This reminds me…
The ink machine was just a 1920’s versions of the 3D printer made by GENT that only used ink , who only had its use in Joey Drew’s Studio. It’s design was too big , clunk and messy that it’s costs got too big to sustain a animation studio that could not get with the times , until GENT’s CEO gave Joey Drew the idea of using the ultimate power source: Souls.
Since desperation and perfection does not give room for second thoughts , it was immediately applied. They used only bits of each of their staff souls by using secret rituals that had each person’s favorite object and it gave the machine enough strength to print objects very close to its original design , if a bit yellowed. It saved a lot of money since it’s material was used to expand the studio.
But , the money are still getting thin , people are getting overworked and less paid , and the usage of bits of soul made people feel depressed and unsettled. Even if souls can regenerate themselves like closing a wound , they can still feel if a place is literally made of their pieces. So , Joey Drew had a idea to amass this power in one place and create life on the image of the cartoon themselves.
That proved his undoing. The first attempt fused with him like a parasite giving him youth , strength , even it is said that gave him eternal life but he kept it secret. The machine needed more souls , and he complied by making complainers “disappear” , made cults out of their own staff. Until a strike happened. On a whim he locked out everyone he made a mass sacrifice so big that even the reality around warped.
Thankfully, he got so regretful of his decisions that he cast away the parasite by using its whole power to seal the studio inside his own house.
Now. The next details are just rumors. It is said that he ordered another ink machine from GENT and used it to make a copy of his best friend : Henry Stein , that made him go and come back to the sealed studio many times like a ink doll. Until it got soul strength enough from there to confront the old man and throw him inside the sealed studio.
Nowadays GENT learned the lesson , and made more ink machines that actually made toons that made toontown as a consequence , but this is another story.
But now , I am glad that the knowledge of reality warping disappeared with Joey , but there is no information whatsoever about GENT CEO’s , that actually started all this shit. Using living beings as a battery is…unacceptable!
They are sentient! They can be happy , sad , hurt , angry , vengeful!
Speaking of this. I am sure that the demons that attacked me in my country were made of ink. I need to search more about this machine.
