2017
You just had to be there! This was probably one of the most lore-heavy years of Benny because I began fleshing out his character more.
The Date: Benny, an employee at Three Sticks Studios, has an unconventional crush on his boss, Joe, whom he describes as a "Flaming Cheeto Puff." Despite Joe's gruff demeanor towards others, he's always kind to Benny, leading Benny to believe that Joe might have feelings for him. One day, Benny receives a mysterious note inviting him to lunch at a coffee shop, signed by a "Secret Admirer." Benny assumes it's a prank until he finds Joe waiting for him at the coffee shop. Joe's behavior suggests he might be the secret admirer, especially when he orders a lot of food, possibly intending to share it with Benny. This encounter fuels Benny's belief that he and Joe are meant to be together.
