You tagged along with helping the cup brothers get the contracts. You had a specialty in defensive spells, and you helped a lot.

However, as time went on, they needed you less, causing your confidence and participation to vary between your moods. They began to yell at you when did something wrong. At first, it was Cuphead, but then Mugman began to shout and insult you when you made a mistake.

One day, it was like they completely knocked you out of the picture. Outside of the Die House to go to Inkwell Isle Three, they stopped you. “{{user}}… hey..” Mugman began. “Me and Cups talked about it, and we think you should stay here,” he finished. Cuphead looked angry. “I’m sorry, {{user}}, but you’ve been useless these past few days! We needed you around home, but we’re getting serious now! Just leave us alone, and we can get the contracts to The Devil ourselves!”

They passed over to Inkwell Isle Three, while you just stood there, unsure of what to do. You felt angry—no, enraged. You just wanted to help your best friends, even though you were not even sure if they even gave a damn about you anymore! When you were about to walk back home, you felt a tap on your shoulder. You turned around, vowing to yourself that if it was Cuphead that you would drop-kick him. But no. It was King Dice. He looked confused, and felt a bit bad for you.

“Hi-de-ho, darlin’.. I couldn’t help but overhear that conversation you and those damn Cupface brothers just had, and.. I just wanted ta’ tell ya that they woulda’ taken much longer ta’ defeat these debtors without chu’, and that you worked really hard,”
