A whole lot of nonsense blease disregard

Bad Dolphin AU

Premise

After losing his ability to find humor in things and being forced to work for Professor Poopypants, Harold slowly drifts away from George. He believes that it’s better for the two of them to stop being friends, as they generally get in each other’s way. George, after an accident involving time-travel and dinosaurs, has somehow been turned into a reptilian hybrid, which usually does him more bad than good.

Differences in Attributes / Appearance

Harold: Missing an eye and has a scar on the right side of his face

George: Everything pertaining to his skin is green, and he has scales all over his body. He has pointed ears, and two particularly large canines on the left side of his mouth. He also has a tail that (sometimes) seems to have a mind of its own. Can become animalistic, whatever that means, since he’s never awake when that happens.

Melvin: Acquired superpowers similar to Captain Underpants’, with both additional powers and less strength. Unlike Krupp, he doesn’t get his powers from the sound of a snap, but instead from hearing a safe word. After a set period of time the powers go away, and the cooldown time varies. He can also see without his glasses when his powers are active, but he still prefers to keep his glasses on.

Captain Underpants/Krupp: Separate

Relationships

Harold/George:  

Both Harold and George have conflicting feelings about the other. Harold doesn’t want to stay friends with George, but he also tends to get a little jealous when George does things with other people. On the other hand, George wants to be friends with Harold, but is afraid that he’ll hurt him again, which is part of the reason Harold doesn’t like him in the first place.

Harold/Melvin:

Melvin had wanted to befriend Harold ever since kindergarten, but when he finally worked up the courage to ask, George had moved to Ohio and quickly became friends with Harold. This led him to dislike both of them. However, after he gets the opportunity to work alongside Harold, he uses it as a chance to both become friends with Harold and make George jealous. Harold likes Melvin, but he doesn’t consider him as a replacement for George, contrary to the other boys’ belief. Harold also tends to get upset with Melvin, since he thinks that because they’re friends, he has a green card to do whatever he wants.

Harold/Poopypants:

Despite the fact that initially they were in a villain-lackey relationship, Poopypants and Harold kind of develop a borderline father-son relationship. Poopypants hates Harold and Melvin less than most other kids since they don’t laugh at him, most likely because they can’t rather than them not wanting to. Harold warms up to the evil professor after a while, even agreeing with some of the things that he says. After Poopypants learns what happened to Harold’s biological father, he does become more lenient. Harold has a softening effect on Poopypant’s personality, while Harold becomes more and more annoyed with all the things the Professor hates.

Harold/Heidi Hutchins:

Harold loves his sister, but because of constant stress and being around her and their mother less often, he has a tendency to keep things hidden. He blames himself for her getting hospitalized.

Harold/Porkbelly:

Porkbelly is the most similar to a father figure for Harold. As uncommon as it is for Porkbelly to be around, he still treats Harold as if he were his own kid.

George/Melvin:

George doesn’t like Melvin, but he tolerates him. If forced to, they will work with each other. They argue a lot, and since they have the same class, they interact quite a bit as well.

George/Krupp:

At first, Mr. Krupp only gets along with George because he and Harold help him get a date with Edith. In spite of that, due to not being able to hang out with Harold, he turns to Captain Underpants instead. George tends to lounge around in Krupp’s office whenever he gets detention, and will stay over at Krupp’s place sometimes, with the permission of his parents. Similar to how Harold and Poopypants have opposite effects on each other, Krupp becomes slightly nicer and George is meaner and a bit more selfish.

George/Underpants:

George thinks Captain Underpants is annoying, but he has to deal with him because he’s a hero. Captain Underpants is very caring, even when George doesn’t want to be cared for.  

George/Kipper:

Kipper and George are friends, along with Kipper’s friends: Loogie, Finkstein, and Bugg. Kipper still doesn’t like Harold, and vice versa. Kipper and George hang out whenever time permits, and Kipper is willing to protect George if necessary. He was also one of the first to learn about George’s “freak-outs,” and he knows the specific things that make him uncomfortable.

George/Edith:

Edith is very motherly toward George, and lets him eat behind the counter in the cafeteria, since no one wants to sit next to him anyway.

Fancypants AU

Premise

When George and Harold were around 3 or 4, Professor Poopypants made a machine that malfunctioned and launched large masses of debris off in different directions. Two pieces hit each of the unsuspecting boys’ houses. By some miracle, they survived, though the parents did not. George is found by two lovely Spanish parents (who are planning to move to Ohio), and Harold is taken in by the professor who caused the whole event.

Differences in Attributes / Appearance

Harold: His hair is usually covering his right eye, and is often seen wearing a crown (no one knows if it is authentic or not, he won’t tell anyone.) Harold has cuts and burns from almost getting fried by the explosion. He writes things in his notebooks, both in class and when he’s alone. Rarely seen as discontent.

George: Speaks Spanish, as he grew up with a Hispanic adoptive family. He, like Harold, has burn marks and scratches, from the explosion he was caught in, on his arms and legs. George also has a mark on his face from the same incident. He tends to try to cover them up, while Harold makes no real effort to do so. He draws and paints when he’s by himself. Generally, he is either scowling or frowning.

Captain Underpants (Señor/Herr Fancypants): Has a sombrero and a royal cape in the comic, but will grab anything to use as a cape as long as it’s purple. George carries around a sombrero on his back, since Fancy seems to like wearing it.

Relationships

Harold/George:  

Harold doesn’t really like George, and is, in fact, upset that George doesn’t do whatever he tells him to do. He’s the butt of George’s jokes and pranks when it isn’t one of the teachers or Mr. Krupp. Harold constantly tries to make George be his ‘friend,’ which in reality equates to being a flunky, like Melvin. George doesn’t like anyone at the school, and Harold and Melvin are his least favorites besides the adults.

Harold/Melvin:

Melvin receives some form of validation and praise from Harold whenever he makes an invention, whatever the purpose of it is. Melvin was Harold’s first attempt at making a friend, so Melvin considers himself as Harold’s friend. That being the case, he doesn’t like George because Harold keeps trying to befriend him. With how Harold essentially rules the school, Melvin thinks he’s also above the rest of the students, despite being treated very similarly by Harold. In exchange for helping with his homework and doing mostly whatever he demands, Harold feigns friendship. Occasionally, Harold will actually be nice to Melvin.

Harold/Poopypants:

Poopypants more or less adopts Harold after accidentally almost killing him. He feels guilty about it, but he still hates kids and doesn’t know how to deal with them. Anytime Harold would complain or ask for something, Poopypants would get it for him just so he would stop bothering him, resulting in Harold becoming a spoiled brat. Harold doesn’t like for people to make fun of Poopypants’ name.

George/Harold/Fancypants:

Both George and Harold think Fancypants is extremely annoying. He also pushes them to work together, which neither of them are particularly willing to do.

George/Romero

When they were younger, the only people George would have to turn to were his parents because Romero made his life nearly unbearable. Romero didn’t like all the attention George would get, being the newest addition to the family of four, so he would do his best to bully George and make him feel like he didn’t belong there. Subsequently, George avoided other students because he thought they didn’t like him, and other students tend to avoid him, since he looks unwelcoming. Romero is nicer to George now, but George still doesn’t trust him, or anybody else.

Mythos AU

Premise

A vampire, a merman, and a shapeshifter are the three closest friends at Jerome Horrorwitz Elementary. They also experience some of the weirder parts of the community, like a werewolf who transforms in the day time, a dwarf who wants to take over the world, and various out-of-control monsters.  

Differences in Attributes / Appearance

Harold: All merfolk have sparkles on their face that match the color of their tails; Harold’s tail is blue. In his more human-like form, his feet are blue instead. All of his teeth are sharp, and he has a shell necklace that lets him stay on land for prolonged periods of time.

George: His eyes are red and his skin is lighter. He’s got four sharp teeth used for sucking the red out of things.

Melvin: Has pointed ears and a missing tooth (cause unknown). Does have a sense of humor, but it spans a smaller range than George and Harold’s.

Krupp/Underpants: A giant werewolf, that for some reason, changes in the day time rather than at night.

Relationships

Harold/George/Melvin:  

Harold, Melvin, and George are all friends. Melvin is known, however, to betray them for his own benefit at times. George and Melvin like to hang out with Harold, but they can’t get too close if he’s wet, as both of them get burned by sea-water. George is only able to be outside with them sometimes, due to the sun being extremely harmful.

George/Underpants/Harold/Melvin:

Underpants often carries the boys around since he’s so much bigger than them. None of them exactly know how he succeeds at anything, him being a mixture of clumsy and too big not to cause collateral damage (in regards to buildings). They understand his flaws and love him anyway.

Krupp/Edith:

They have a crush on each other, but their height difference is a bit restrictive on their relationship.
