my second full bfdi humanized reanimation. i'm gonna do one more scene and then post all three as a compilation to youtube!

if you're a fan of non-animated artworks, check out the most recent part of drawing requests! not sure if i'm gonna get smitten for saying this but you can vote which bfdie character i get to draw next!

i rewatched all of bfdie today and i know we all have our sidewalkies and needies and ferns but i gotta say, the cheaters alliance is something i slept on. theyre so cool i wish they made it further. theyre like the freesmart of bfdie where they all get out early except one of them who makes finale but by that point has new friends outside of the alliance. (sticker = bubble) i miss these guys

[THIS IS A HYPOTHETICAL SCENARIO WHERE ONE SPLITS TPOT DURING EPISODE 11. MORE WILL BE REVEALED LATER.]

TL;DR - The losing team is >!Stupid Iance!< and it's Vote to Save.

While it was meant to be only two who rejoin, five characters got one vote each, so I thought "screw it, just make a new team".

The first challenge of this new phase is to fill up your team's pit!

Life PACT:

Book, as the new leader, tries assigning roles to her teammates. She tells Black Hole to go with Pillow (since she's the only other person with arms) to pick up something large to fill their pit. Black Hole is distressed about the fact that someone like Pillow is teaming up with him, but Pillow reassures him that she's past that point. We'll see if she's truthful!

Book then assigns Price Tag to trade with the other teams, and she says it quite enthusiastically, which makes Ice Cube feel a bit jealous. But she still has to help, especially now that she's gotten new legs from a mysterious contractor. This makes Book realize that if they have to work together, then Ice Cube will help Book sabotage other teams using their sliding.

Black Hole takes Pillow to Davidland, and she covers herself over the David's mouth, to not let it make a loud noise. Now having to be very careful, Black Hole has to make sure they get the David back to the Grasslands.

Stupid Iance:

Golf Ball immediately tries to get people to follow her orders. But if there's someone who won't listen to her, it's Robot Flower, still believing she's Season 1 Flower, she just starts messing with everyone. Basketball tries to get Golf Ball to be less harsh towards Robot Flower, but they argue about whether Basketball is an incompetent mechanic for not being able to fix a malfunctioned machine.

Gaty, in the meantime, tries to calm them both down. She tells Eraser to start gathering stuff for their pit. Eraser decides that he needs a new rival, and asks Puffball, from the Topdogs. She decides to agree, thinking that it would just be a simple an easy win for her, as she now wants to take the game more seriously.

The Topdogs:

Having came back so soon, the rejoiners in this competition virtually have no idea what to do in the challenge. None of them really know each other, but one person steps up, Foldy. She tells Lightning and Puffball to search far and wide for anything useful they can take. She also tells Remote to get a mechanical upgrade to be physically stronger, by asking Basketball, whom she shared a team with previously. Eggy gets nothing.

When Eraser comes to mess with Puffball, Lightning realizes that Stupid Iance is no good if they want to get Basketball from that team to get Remote to be stronger as a form of alliance. They then stumble onto Price Tag, who trades whatever Black Hole would bring back (with him not knowing) in favor of ganging up on Stupid Iance, to which they agree.

Foldy and Remote approach a very angry Basketball from after an argument, and they reconnect, Basketball explains everything that happened - A new number "One" mysteriously showed up and started kidnapping contestants, Ice Cube signed a deal from One to get her legs back, not knowing that it was actually a deal that gave away around a half of the currently competing contestants. This shocks Foldy, who briefly forgot about what she wanted to ask Basketball. However, it is too late.

Climax:

When Black Hole and Pillow come back, Price Tag tells them about the deal, Black Hole feels hesitant and Pillow gets slightly mad, but they understand that it's for a greater cause: making Stupid Iance lose.

After finishing the conversation, Basketball notices that the other teams have been messing with them, which makes Basketball realize she's been intentionally distracted from trying to actually do the challenge, so Stupid Iance's pit is still empty. She tries telling this to Golf Ball, but Golf Ball doesn't believe her at all. Robot Flower tries fighting the ones who try to sabotage her (Book and Ice Cube who use sliding, Puffball who tries throwing her from the air, Remote who tries using her buttons to control RF). During the fight, Robot Flower uses Eraser and Gaty as her own tools, but after almost succeeding, she fails after Lightning zaps her.

As the timer nears to an end, Pillow realizes that their own team's pit still has nothing in it, so she kicks Golf Ball in the pit, right as the timer ends. Pillow sighs of relief that they didn't lose. And as per tradition, any team that tries to replicate Iance, loses the first challenge.

Vote to Save: Basketball, Eraser, Gaty, Golf Ball, Robot Flower

this is based on a hypothetical season 7 idea where the algebraliens quit hosting bfdi after tpot and so the next season is hosted by tpot's winner (whoever has the power) and pillow co-hosts because she wants that power for her research, not realizing that by agreeing to such an important responsibility, she'd have to go through a lot of trouble for this season to go smoothly. perhaps even too much for her calm facade to handle.
