CURRENT SITUATION
After an argument with Spamton about Static and his lack of love for Tenna during the Bigshot Era, he suddenly started to remember a lot of issues that plagued him with time- things such as cancelling his own daughter's show, abandoning Dollie, et cetera. The stress from this irreversably seemed to corrupt him in some way, or at least damaged him in a way that can't seem to be repaired.The screen, much like the WorstEnd counterpart, can no longer properly display his usual face and is stuck black, though it can display various "mouth emotions", usually a smile that is a little unnerving to see.The screen also seems to leak now- a black fluid with the same viscosity as honey. While not recommended to consume, it has numbing effects and tastes of Anise. However, consumption also seems to corrupt the one consuming it unless they are Static or Mike (Midori). Not that they'd do that, it's just worth mentioning.He's attempted to make repairs to himself a few times now, but nothing works.Tenna is rather plagued with various sources of guilt that he can not seem to overcome. He feels he will never be a good parent and he feels that he will never be able to see Dollie again, at least not in a state he wants to be seen in- a complete mess.

POST-CHAPTER THREE EVENTS

After the events of being cleaved, nobody was there to help him. Nobody wanted to try and save him because "he was awful". Nobody except three specific people.The Mikes: Midori, Pluey, and Jongler.Those were the three that desperately aided in restoring Tenna to working condition, and the three that he felt the most indebt to. Having nothing now, he became harder on himself than ever before, and incredibly uneasy and paranoid around versions of Kris due to what they did. He blamed himself for everything.This sadness supressed more of how broken his mental state had gotten, along with the fact the Mikes were still there for him. Together with those Mikes, they managed to relocate to Castle Town, albeit it was just those four in the end.

Tenna's room in castle town is different than it is in canon, purposefully remodeled by him in a way that is far more ominous than it needs to be, but nobody can even enter it except for him for that reason. Upon entering, it's purposefully meant to be like a warning to go back and not proceed due to him wanting to be left alone.For some reason, it almost seems like it shouldn't even be able to exist in this way, creating a feeling almost liminal or uncanny. The room he stays in itself is... a darkened replica of the green room, actually.There is a secret hallway linking the connected variant of the Mike room to the actual room. It's inaccessable to anyone other than the Mikes, and the actual entrance to the Mike Room is guarded by a password, as seen.

PAST INFORMATION

Tenna never particularly was the best boss. He was very strict with his employees, to the point of being cruel. Hellbent on the best ratings being achieved, he would pretty much overwork everyone without thinking about how it'd cause problems. However, he was balanced out at a time.Before Spamton, he worked with another that he was very close with- Dollie. Everything about her balanced him, kept him calm around his employees, kept everyone happy and things were good. Sure, the show was not getting as many views as it could have had, but... things were fine. It was fine. Things could have stayed that way, but then there was the laptop.That was when he met Spamton, and of course... he was promised something amazing. He was told that "He could make it big", that "He had the qualities of a real star".Tenna tried to insist about Dollie's worth, of course. It didn't work out. Spamton saw nothing valuble with Dollie, after all. Tenna knew that it was risky, but... he wanted to know how to become something more, for the show to become even better.So he went with Spamton, promising Dollie he'd come back for her once he knew how to make everything the best.This was a mistake.

At this moment was the point of no return. Things started off fine, but there were 'branching paths'. This one followed an instance where Spamton actually didn't care at all about Tenna. Instead, he was trying to use Tenna for his own gain- for popularity. For more reach.Tenna didn't catch on.
Tenna thought Spamton started to like him. This was far from the case, and thus the interest he felt in the other was one-sided to the point that it became heavily problematic, affecting his actions with the workers once more since there was no balance at all like there was with dollie.While he didn't forget her, he was so blinded by wanting to be successful that once everything was truly in hell, he would have been horrified of going back to her. Horrified of her seeing what happened to him.So he didn't.
Perhaps he should have, because sticking around Spamton to the point of developing that onesided attraction was what truly screwed up everything he had going.Spamton tended to not stop Tenna or tell him it was wrong whenever he lashed out, and for this reason all of the employees started to feel afraid of him, but more like they had to stick around for the sake of their jobs. Quite frankly, it's unfortuante that all of this lasted as long as it did without any sort of big incident, until, well...Static happened.
A little child between Tenna and Spamton that neither expected to hatch, but both truly cared for her. Even then, the parenting given was never proper. It was either one or the other, never together. Even then... there was some form of semi-proper parenting, even giving her her own little show!... It was acutally slightly stabilizing for Tenna.
Until Mike started getting actively to a breaking point about the whole thing.You see, Mike loved Spamton. They were business partners before Tenna came into the picture, and Mike told Spamton this was just a chance to get even bigger. He didn't expect anything to be between them and for the most part things weren't. It was when Static was born that he lost it.Agitated that there was 'something created between the one he liked and this stupid TV', he decided to insist to Spamton that Tenna would betray him, that he should move on and abandon this job for something else.Spamton didn't listen right away, he 'helped' with Static until Tenna started to catch on about a few things, mostly the other's lack of love for him.And then?
After a rather dangerous argument, Spamton left.Tenna was alone, and had a small child that just made him think about the one that he thought loved him. At the time, in his dangerous emotional state, he... cancelled her program. For awhile, it even seemed like she vanished.Or at least that's how he processed it. Maybe he tried to block her out, maybe others in the studio took turns trying to take care of her. To raise her at least to be somewhat okay.

Loneliness made things worse, along with his fear to seek out Dollie again because he felt like a failure. During that time, A certain dice started to play pretend. Identifying as Mike, but insisting to not be the same one.There were three, but Tenna's already broken apart mental state didn't allow him to process the difference. They were all Mike, and they all cared. Mike did his best for Tenna, and behind the scenes, was actually the ones taking care of Static.Tenna didn't know that there was the high potential he was being cruel to those that were Mike out of costume due to how much of a mess he was, either.Somewhat stabilized by Mike either way, he was able to at least try to manage TV Time alone, or mostly alone- constantly asking Mike for help with things, with handling the stress of everything, until the day the Dark Fountain was properly created.

THE ALTERNATE SCENARIO

A split off of the normal WorstEnd Tenna that is not aggressive towards 002 / Battat and the other Mikes... or, well, anyone really. He's far more gentle, but he is still very much based on the one that's broken. For that reason, he's prone to episodes where he's scarier at times- never directing anything towards Battat or the Mikes, but more likely to lash out at others that he doesn't feel close with.He feels awkward being a hastily made "divergence", but he's glad that he is here for Battat when his alternate self is a complete asshole.He appears to be post-bigshot era but pre-chapter 3 in terms of mindset. He hates Spamton (especially bigshot era) with a burning passion and that cannot be changed unless it's proven they're not all the same.This Tenna would literally kill for Battat, and is actually rather skilled with combat, even though he tends to disregard his own state due to having vague memories of how he was able to bring himself back from near death in the future.He is also very possessive of Battat, only willing to share with the other Mikes that seem very fond of her (he doesn't know they're the other mikes. But he does know Pluey and Jongler as her friends and potential partners.)

NOTE: account was repurposed from another portrayal but i'm not removing any posts relating to that for archive sake. I just decided to change it because it was more interesting this way.

ERROR: UNABLE TO RECOVER.

An alternate timeline of WorstEnd in particular where after Tenna got away, he managed to only repair certain aspects of himself. He seems to have no memory of the things that lead to this point anymore and he cannot remember them at all, likely never will.This is probably for the best, in the end. He feels a strong connection to Battat despite everything, and she will likely be the only one he's capable of bonding with properly as she is the only one that he likely will be able to trust. Unlike his other version, he's only aggressive if people provoke him or attack Battat.In nature, He is slightly prone to acting a bit ... catlike? Sometimes crawling on all fours, a sort of 'whirring' being akin to a purr from him, et cetera. He's rather large still, and can no longer properly shrink for the most part due to how he's broken. The insides of his monitor are exposed, and he's 'broken' in a different way from the typical damage done to his lightner form.He speaks in a glitched out manner that's a little hard to understand, typed out in all caps + leetspeak in a way.Tenna does not want to be touched or 'repaired' by anyone that he doesn't find himself close with, as he only trusts one particular Battat and likely is suspicious of other versions. Due to damage, he is also Red-Blind (Protanopia), and due to this he distinguishes his Battat based on her personality which he caught onto rather fast.

THE 'DARK WORLD'

The dark world is basically the same as the default one. There were a few notable differences though. For an example... Two mike imposters that aided him; Pluie/Pluey & Jongler, and the overall theme of the dark world was darker in terms of most of the staff being scared of Tenna due to how easy it was to make him break down into violence.The boards were practically all integrated more heavily with sword route, as Kris could use violence more freely and Tenna even seemed to 'encourage' it, the reason for this being something of a coping mechanism for what he went through. The quizzes and minigames stayed mostly the same.

INGAME ROUTE BASICS

In the end, the path this took was more on par with 'weird' route in terms of not sparing / showing mercy for anyone. In the end, everyone left and Tenna was alone. On top of this, he was nearly killed by Kris and their friends, as well as being cleaved by the knight and left there.

POST-DARKWORLD

Despite the dark world closing, he still managed to very slowly repair himself, the determination he felt to keep functioning being what drove him to haphazardly repair himself once he slowly regained enough power to function.The connectors in his arms are messed up from faultily re-attaching them. This is beyond fixing now, and they tend to short out at random until he temporarily fixes it again.There are incredibly hard-to-see cracks throughout his screen that prevent it from displaying anything other that the smile, this cannot be fixed / swapped out as he refuses to trust anyone to that point any time soon.
