We Learned About Chalice's - Tumblr Posts

petition for Cuphead to learn a goddamn lesson and gain more character development, and also for Mugman to curse and explore both of their psyches.

As much as I love him, Cuphead needs to learn not to go neglect his responsibilities for fun, Mugman needs to curse like he rightfully deserves, and I'm actually curious about their childhood and why they ended up the way they are. Instead of just using their impulsiveness and cheeriness (Cuphead) and sociopathic signs (Mugman) for laughs I want to find out how they ended up like that. I like the comedy of the show, I just want it to actually bring tension when it wants to and explain its characters thoroughly and understandably. Just want it to be more serious and character-driven.

I have a lot of questions about them:

Why doesn't Cuphead show off his piano skills more?

Why isn't Cuphead angry that Ludwig didn't show up instead of having some kind of accepting but not surprised disappointment?

Why does Mugman have such bad anger issues and tries to protect his brother so much? Ik they're brothers but rewatching the show there seems to be more to his protectiveness than just wanting to protect him for his (Cuphead's) own good.

A BIG question: Why does Mugman say "I know what it's like to be abandoned." when they both have been abandoned by Chalice? But then I realized that wasn't what he was talking about, it was a completely different event in his life, an event we haven't SEEN YET. What is it?

How does Mugman manage to do all of those skills? (sword-fighting with a giant crab, catapulting on a mountain, etc.)

Why doesn't Mugman get hot or cold (he got hot in Sweater Off Dead, but you notice he doesn't anymore)

Why does Cuphead lie about not being worried about things?

Why does Mugman worry so much?

Why can't Mugman play the piano?

So yeah, just a petition to have some things explained in the show. Let me know what you guys think in the comments.
