Can't you make your own dream girlfriend with the ink machine?
Oh yeah, sure let's put this poor gal through the same nightmare I've been through. If she comes out flawed, why don't we just toss her aside and try again?? If she ain't perfect, she ain't worth it, right? We can dispose of all the failed attempts at makin' her for all I care. An' after all that, I can claim the perfect gal as my own since that's all she's made for. Her whole point of livin' is to satisfy me an' I can do whatever I want with her because I made her. She was born to be mine an' only mine; she's my dream girlfriend after all.
Come on now, is that really what you want happenin'? To create someone just for my own pleasure, that ain't right. It makes me sick. You don't make life just for the hell of it, you make life because you want somethin' to love and cherish, an' no matter how many flaws it has, you love it all the same anyway. It shouldn't love you because it has to, because it was made to, but because it was treated with love and care. You take that life and you treasure it, you don't toss it aside when it ain't good enough. Accept it, support it, an' care for it with all the love in your heart.
You give it life and you let it live life.
So to answer your question, I can't and I won't use the ink machine to make my own dream girlfriend.

f.all/out verses.
WESLEY CRANE: wesley grew up on his family's farm, out in the middle of nowhere growing crops and tending to their livestock. his dad built it all up from the ground up, even going so far as to dig a well on the property; unbeknownst to any of the Cranes, however, the water in that well was tainted by some kind of experimental chemical. and over time, each member of the family began to change. his parents were first: elizabeth, who slowly lost her memories with her hair and her teeth and her skin, and henry, a man who had always been angry, who became a monster that would attack anything that moved at the drop of a hat.
wesley tried to carry on for as long as he could, tending to the farm and his mother, and trying to keep his brother out of trouble where he could -- but then jacob started losing his memories, too. subtly, just typical scatterbrained forgetfulness, but that's how their mom had started out, too.
and then one night, wesley's dad kills him. he's in the ground for a week before he comes back - and he does come back, limbs and internal organs and skin stubbornly healing as he watched on in horror. it would seem whatever had changed the rest of his family had changed him, too; robbing him of death, of slumber, the hell of an eternal life. his family, however, had not survived his absence. elizabeth and jacob had gone feral, and what was left of henry rotted in misshapen chunks scattered across their field, his final hours a mystery wesley didnt care to learn.
he leaves the farm the same day, searching the wastes for answers about what happened to him and his family.
BENJAMIN LOGAN: the logans were some of the "lucky few" who lived their lives in a vault up until the day they didn't. when ben was 16, all chaos broke out when rumors of sabotage and subterfuge led to a fully fledged revolt. he and max were able to get to safety, but their parents weren't so lucky -- and as a fire roared through enclosed hallways with no sign of stopping, benji made a choice. a choice to take his chances on the surface with Max, leaving everything they once knew behind them. nine years later, he doesn't regret it; from what he hears, there's nothing left of the vault they grew up in, every inch of it burned to a crisp or picked clean by raiders and scavengers alike.
ALTERNATIVELY, Benji lives out his first arc as normal, but when he finally escapes the caverns of Hell, he finds himself in the middle of a post-war wasteland, with no idea how to get back to his brother or how to navigate a world that's entirely unfamiliar.

due to the current state of artists being treated like microcelebrities the second they get over roughly 200 followers, you can now experience the previously overexaggerated and cliché scene in a movie where the best friend/lover of a famous person is absolutely snubbed by a rando pretending to be friendly to get close to said famous person. for the low low price of being close with basically anyone who posts art online at all!
