Hypothetical but how would Mordecai feel if he ever saw the Savorys talking to Benjamin?

I think he’d be a bit concerned and possibly even unhappy about it, in the way you might not want your kid hanging with bad influences (they might sway Benjamin to think that being barefoot in public is acceptable, good heavens! :0 )

Does Benjamin ever have an encounter with the Savoy twins? He likes pigeons, maybe he'd want to see Sera's chickens.

I feel like the twins would give him an uneven amount of change and Mordecai would have a fit when Benji showed him.

Mordecai wasn’t too keen on anyone knowing Benjamin, unfortunately! Mostly for his own privacy and Benjamin’s safety (He’s racked up a pretty extensive list of foes I’d say)

But the idea of the Savoys using Benjamin as a means to torment Mordecai made me laugh so much 😂 he’d definitely hold the chicken at least once!

He would fear her.

How would Benjamin design his secret base/clubhouse? Bonus point if you can show whatever floor plans he'd draw for it.

Here’s the plans he submitted to Mordecai!

They did not get approved.

[aghostnamedcalamity]

When Benjamin gets sick, how does Mordecai take care of him?

Begrudgingly. Very….very…begrudgingly.

[aghostnamedcalamity]

Would Mordecai be protective of Benjamin if he is ever bullied?

He actually did have to deal with that around Benjamin’s middle school years! As I’ve said before, Benjamin tends to swing back and forth between socially awkward and awkwardly socially. His kindness is his aunt’s but his skills reflect a bit more on Mordecai. The difference is he doesn’t have Mordecai’s indifference on whether or not someone likes him.

The way Mordecai tried fixing the situation once he realized his son really wasn’t happy was transferring him to a private Jewish school. Benjamin’s heritage is a bit of a gray area, but what are Mordecai’s skills for if not to falsify documents to improve Benjamin’s life.

I got so inspired by the poster release I’m trying to teach myself the Lackadaisy animation style! Thanks for the Q!

A Miss Ivy Pepper 💛

For an art giveaway I did… @egyptiangamer asked for Ivy in the dress she wore in the comic :)

Bonus outfit because I accidentally did the second one at first

Hi calamity. Do you think that Joey would continue to be a part of Benjamin's life even when Benjamin is an adult?

Hello! I think he will, but probably not nearly as active like in his childhood. But he’ll be there! Joey did work as an emotional translator of sorts between Mordecai and Benjamin during the times they were clashing the most and, even though Mordecai then strived to be better in that aspect, still is a good shoulder to lean on when Benjamin needs some mental support :)

[aghostnamedcalamity]

Can we get an old man Mordecai sketch?

He would be that one old man yelling at you to get off his lawn!

Now let’s just hope he manages to live that long

I JUST LOVE THE WAY YOU DRAW MILLY 😭✨ omg

some more milly art for @aghostnamedcalamity

[aghostnamedcalamity]

THIS IS SO CUTE 😭😭

For context: Joey, Åse ( @acesandocs ), and Luc ( @tohot4u ) are godfathering Benjamin here! He’s also got a couple of godmothers from my other friends, hopefully I can draw them all one day just for funsies!

*sitcom music plays in the backround*

Ace belongs to @acesandocs

who were are godfathering belongs to @aghostnamedcalamity (but is not drawn in the image)

Only these two idiots would think a baby at a speakeasy is an okay idea.

Concept doodles for an AU where Millicent and Mordecai actually managed to coparent somehow. They still wouldn’t be romantically involved in any way, but it would be entertaining at the very least.

[aghostnamedcalamity]

I imagine Mordecai is the one who first taught Benji how to cook? If so, how did that first attempt to?

Pretty much just different variations of this

Mordecai doesn’t need to explain himself.

[aghostnamedcalamity]

Huzzah! 🎉 you win the prize @egyptiangamer !

Thanks to everyone else as well! 💝 y’all rock! :)

I recently reached a milestone on this blog and I just wanted to say a little thank you to you guys! :)

So as a sort of celebration I wanted to gift someone a one character, full-color art piece! It can be an OC or any character of your choice, it’s not particularly exclusive to Lackadaisy (but that is my strong suit lol). SFW only. If interested, you just have to like this post and you’re in! I’m gonna use a random name picker on all the likes this post has next Friday the 6th to choose.

Bonus little sketch stuff I haven’t (properly) shared here! Mostly others OC

I really like OCs.

ROLLERSKATES 😭💖

Let’s be a lovely mess✨

If we have a happy ending, I will gladly tie the knot. And I hope, without pretending, You would want that too a lot. If we have a happy ending, One eternity-transcending, I will come to our spring wedding With a happy springing stride, Smiling wide. Ta-da-dae-dae... Oh, If we have a happy ending, That will be a perfect plot. If we have a happy ending... If we... ...had... ...a happy ending... Only had... ...our happy ending... But, unfortunately, we're not. Happy endings even fairies Keep for silly fairytales, And whoever ever marries Sticks in hardships life entails... Is it worthy, all that mess? Who may guess... Oh, who may guess... But for me it will be a yes. So To hell that happy ending! Let us have a happy start And a random now to spend it With all love that fills our hearts. I don't care which cards life plays, Since you are my happy always. Will you tell me yes? Tell me yes? Let's be a lovely mess. Is it worthy, all that mess? Who may guess, Oh, who may guess? Please tell me yes, Just tell me yes! Let's be a lovely mess.

How long will Benjamin live?

I think he’ll live a pretty full life; the average life expectancy at his time was about 70 years. He’ll make it to about that age :)

[aghostnamedcalamity]

Hey Calamity. When Mordecai became a bit more open about Benjamin's existence, did any members of the Lackadaisy crew ever meet him at any point in time?

Hello! Not in the sense that Mordecai ever purposefully introduced them to him. Even though he’s not ‘hiding’ Benjamin’s existence per se at this point, he’s still a bit weary of promoting it more than necessary. I always imagined he’d briefly run into Mitzi when Benji was around 10, but perhaps enough time has passed now that she could be just a bit happy Mordecai was able to move on with his life. Bittersweet almost.

Thanks for the Q! I’m so sorry it took so long to answer 😅
