I forgot to put the blood… 🫠 Oh well can’t change it. Also, look at this height chart.
Alone on a friday night. Just me-you, you-and-me, me-and-you, and your friend Alex.

《Funfact: Billy’s Girlfriend was originally named “An Old Friend” in older versions of Billy’s Basic Educational Game》
Billy’s Uncle and Billy’s Girlfriend, I need to get around to drawing more of Billy’s loved ones Billter knew what he was doing when he made those designs and I am eating it up. Yeah I gave Billy’s girlfriend dwarfism (is it obvious I don’t know how to draw midgets). Which might seem strange BUT ALSO, she is so short in-game, I had to make her taller in the drawings.
Also! The Captain Gonzalo side-view was supposed to be a re-draw of Ebigeso’s drawing :) So credit to her for the inspiration, please check her out she’s very cool and is the reason why I’m into BBEG so much.
(I’m trying out a different writing style for Tumblr posts, longer text descriptions since there’s no word limit (unlike Twitter). And since there’s no word limit I might as well use it to my advantage? Hope you guys enjoy the more wordy & ramble-filled format!)
Welcome to the “We died so we got replaced by a fake” club, Feat. Real Alex & An Old Friend
For context: If you no-clip through a specific wall in Alex’s school you’ll find a dead Alex hanging from the ceiling with his limbs missing. This is comfirmed to be the Real Alex, whose identity Alex — a demon — stole from. In older versions of Billy’s Basics the original FileName2 replacement was Billy’s Girlfriend instead of Microsoft Sam, later on she was changed to be the Alarm Clock replacement. Though Billy’s Girlfriend is called Billy’s Girlfriend in the game, in the game files she’s called “An Old Friend.”
wait wait, really fluffy headcanon: The polite smile is only for show, whenever she’s in public she uses that kind of smile since it’s more appealing. But when she’s alone with close friends or Billy she let’s her face relax and emote genuinely.
I got permission from Greenie to draw her fan design of an alt. outfit for Billy’s Girlfriend! It was so much fun drawing the outfit and being able to finally explain how her height extensions work.
Thinking about the plot of Billy’s Basic Educational Game, and I’m realising how gay it feels… You have this guy, he lives with his best friend; in the same house: for nearly 2 decades; and raising a kid together. But it’s very straight because he has a girlfriend he built out of scraps of metal and sillicon 😁👍
I saw what you said on twitter why dont you just do it yourself?
You are so right anon, thank you for the inspiration. Have this shitpost as a reward 🙏
Hey so what is your favorited Bbieal au ship
:))
Apologies for late reply 🙏
TL;DR my favourite ships are Shybi, Billfriend, Joedina, Olivialex and Dollex.
Shybi 😮🧤 (Shy John x Billy)
Best friends to lovers trope + “Light in the dark” trope — very cliche but I adore it very much. I think that Billy always tries to portray himself as “well-made” to the public, but behind closed doors he’s literally everything except “well-made.” He’s emotional (Non-Emotional Creature being used to “clean up trash”); he doesn’t know how to deal with his emotions adequately (Vending machine of Beer, need I say more?); he’s tired (shoutout to Billy’s three jobs, mad respect to single-parent fatherhood 💪); he’s arrogant sometimes (This isn’t inspired by canon, I think Billy would have an ego from being always told he’s “well-made”); he’s haunted by things that aren’t there (The Great War, circa 1985, from CBA).
But despite all of this, there’s always one guy who has his back. And it’s his best friend, Shy John (⌒▽⌒) Why do I think that? Well, in the mods the only character to consistently appear is Shy John. Wherever Billy is, Shy John is there too. And of course Billy is very greatful for Shy John’s care. So much that he makes prioritises Shy John’s well-being over his (Funfact: Shy John’s sprite is the only one that is “undamaged” in “11 Years Later”). But not in an obssesive way, more of a “As long as he’s okay, then everything is okay” — self-destruction is not well-made!
Billfriend 🧤⏰ (Billy x Girlfriend/Old Friend)
So much of this is headcanon/personal interpretation because Girlfriend & Old Friend literally have 0 personality in the source material 😭
I think their relationship is tragic, Billy loved his old “friend” so much he built a robot to subsitute her. But the robot is a robot, therefore she can’t replicate Old Friend perfectly. I also find it poetic that Billy’s Girlfriend is only known as “Billy’s Girlfriend,” a title is the only thing she can replicate. She can never replicate his old friend… Someone that shared memories, struggles and celebrations with him…
This is also equally tragic from Old Friend’s perspective. She’s perceived as a dead soul, when in actuality she’s very much alive but trapped in The Office™ like she’s “Kaiba getting banished to the shadow realm.” If we’re to assume this is the same Office™ that FileName2 is trapped in, then Old Friend can still see Billy. But only as a spectator. She can’t interact with him; only watch his life progress with others, as her’s is trapped in purgatory alone.
Joedina 🍾🥔 (Joe x Baldina)
They’re both losers, therefore they should kiss. And then maybe along the way, they’ll help eachother become not losers. Mutual improvement!
Olivialex 🫒🌷(Olivia x Fake Alex)
It’s not the killing that they’re infatuated with. Olivia wants to genuinely hunt down and kill Alex for justice; Alex wants to hunt down Olivia as a way to mess with her and keep her for himself. Olivia is playing hero, while Alex is acting like a wannabe-yandere. Though they want to kill eachother, they just can’t… Olivia sees Alex as a fascinating discovery, something to be studied and cultivated; Alex sees Olivia as a desireable asset for doing work and keeping him company. They say they don’t want to be friends, but perhaps in a timeline where they didn’t want to kill eachother so bad, they could be co-workers.
They hate eachother so much it wraps back around to infatuation. They don’t love eachother, they’re just so obsessed with killing the other that they end up dedicating their whole lives to it. But once they actually get to killing or losing the other person, suddenly it feels wrong. Because after death, what do you do now?
Dollex 📓🌷(Dolly x Real Alex)
Mostly headcanon for Real Alex because he has 0 personality in source material ⚰️
From a bus stop to a weird house, Dolly and Alex are good friends who’ve gone through alot. When I say “gone through alot,” I mean Alex’s depression. Alex is troubled by many things: his work, the value of his life, his aspirations and most strangely… His house. To qoute Dolly from the MrDrNose discord server, “It was a weird and old apartment.” Maybe it’s the scratches on the walls; or the empty plates with steak juice despite Alex saying he’s not fond of eating meat; or the copious amount of broken broomsticks. Either way… Dolly thinks it’s best to ignore it. The only demons she knows about are Alex’s inner demons that make him feel miserable. And those are the only demons she’s willing to deal with. It’s not her job to care for him, it’s her choice. She loves Alex and wants to see him get better, Alex is in denial that someone can be so caring and kind towards him. But over time he learns to accept Dolly and her kindness into his life. And when he improves he’ll remember all the times Dolly helped him, so he’ll surely help Dolly when she’s in her darkest moments too! Snap out of this self-loathing and self-pity, finally do something with his life and help another life! So that both lives can live happily.
At least, that’s how it was supposed to go. If it wasn’t for the demon (literal) in the house and the demons (figuratively) in the mind…
BBAU headcanons on why I think each teacher rejects intimacy — Insecurity, Apathy, Grief. There’s supposed to be 5 but I couldn’t fit all of them on one page.

Calculating trajectory to hit the heart most effectively, sending Le Family angst to Obod’s way.
What if Baldi’s wife & Billy’s wife kissed. I think the world would be better that way.
