There could be a 'batim crossover fanfiction' that combines BATIM with a classic horror movie universe. Maybe the characters end up in the world of 'The Shining'. The dark and foreboding atmosphere of the Overlook Hotel in 'The Shining' could provide a great backdrop for the BATIM characters to navigate through, with new challenges and interactions that make for an exciting read.
First, know the lore of BATIM well. This includes the characters, the setting, and the overall plot. Then, choose the other franchise or universe you want to cross it with. Make a basic outline of how the two worlds will collide. For example, if it's a BATIM and a fantasy world crossover, think about how the ink creatures will interact with magical beings.
One idea could be that the characters from Cuphead end up in the world of Batim. Cuphead and Mugman might be mistaken for new ink creations in the studio. They could then have to deal with the strange and often menacing creatures in the Batim world while trying to find a way back to their own.
One creative storyline could be where the characters from Batim end up in the Underground of Undertale. Maybe Bendy and his crew are mistaken for strange monsters by the Undertale characters at first. They then have to navigate through the various areas of the Underground, facing challenges like the puzzles in the ruins or the battles in Snowdin, all while trying to find a way back to their own world. Another idea is that the Ink Machine from Batim somehow gets connected to the Determination power in Undertale, causing all sorts of wacky and unexpected interactions between the two universes.
The art styles could be combined by having the characters keep their distinct looks but interact with environments that blend both styles. For example, Cuphead and Mugman could be running through a hall in the Batim studio that has the dark, inky look of Batim but with Cuphead - style geometric patterns on the walls.
One idea could be that the characters from Mystreet end up in the world of BatIM. Maybe Aphmau and her friends are trying to find a way back home while being chased by the Ink Demon. Another could be a character from BatIM somehow enters the Mystreet universe and causes chaos among the residents there.
The character designs could blend in interesting ways. Take Alice Angel from Batim. She could be given a more Undertale - inspired dress. Instead of her normal white dress, it could be a dress with a pattern that resembles the Delta Rune. Her halo could also be a different color, like purple, which is a color often associated with magic in Undertale. On the other hand, Toriel from Undertale could be depicted in a more 'inky' form if she were in the Batim world. Her fur could have a wet - ink look, and her robes could be tattered like the clothes of the characters in Batim who have been through a lot in the studio.
Garroth and Boris would be an interesting pairing. Garroth, with his knight - like qualities of loyalty and protection, could befriend Boris, who is often in need of protection in the BatIM world. And then there's Katelyn and Alice Angel. Katelyn's feisty and strong - willed nature against Alice Angel's more complex and somewhat tragic character. They could have some really intense and thought - provoking interactions, especially if they start to understand each other's motives and backgrounds in this strange crossover of two very different fictional universes.
It really depends on the individual kid's taste. If a kid enjoys exploring the unknown and doesn't mind a bit of horror, they could be attracted to the Batim story. However, if they prefer more light - hearted and positive stories, they probably won't like it.
It depends on the kid. Some kids might understand parts of the Batim story, especially if they are used to darker or more complex stories. However, younger or less experienced kids may find it confusing.
