Blue and Belos
Nothing says 'week before xmas' wholesomeness than some beautiful hatesinks. Azulin (Blue) from Unicorn Wars pal'n around with Philip Wittebane/Belos from The Owl House. If you're old enough to see Unicorn Wars you'll get exactly what I mean about these two. They'd be total besties.

Wicked Witch of the West... as a tree-topper?
Tumblr media
I found this gem a little over a year ago at one of the local Goodwill stores It’s an tree-topper of the Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz, I suspect she’s a custom-one off thing just because of how weird the overall idea is. She now lives at a friend’s as the “fandom tree” topper during the holiday season, sadly I don’t have any photos of her in situ. Read the full article

Day 414 From the war on Gaza
Three women were killed in front of a bakery in Deir al-Balah today, and the reasons were conflicting.
Some said they were shot dead by thugs, and others said they were killed in the scramble (rush) in front of the bakery.
The exact reason and the only truth is that they were killed while finding some bread!
Victims of bread!!
Please donate to my mother and help us to collect the necessary bread, food and medicine

Last week, the House of Representatives rejected H.R. 9495, dangerous and unconstitutional legislation that would give the incoming Trump administration the power to unilaterally shut down nonprofit organizations it doesn't like, with no due process. But just days later, House Republicans are bringing it back for a vote. 
This bill is part and parcel of the MAGA assault on democracy and fundamental freedoms, and it must be defeated again.
We sent over 20,000 messages opposing this bill last week — and it failed on the House floor.
Email your members of Congress now and demand that they vote NO on H.R. 9495.

((OOC: That's all kids for the donation reblogs for today.
I will reblog some more throughout the week as I can when I can. The rest of this week is going to be focused on getting art stuff done. At this moment in time, I'm having two major life changes happen to me- my mom's being kicked out of her house and so is also broke, and also I got a job but it's not nearly as much as even my old part-time one was. Oh, and SSI still isn't getting back to me.
In the meantime I'm trying to keep myself busy and get as much as I can done, with my series, with my reblogging donation pages, with my Patreon and Ko-fi, and with this blog. I'm juggling a lot here.
I'm still also looking for donations myself. Still open to commission so commission me up on my main blog @franki-lew-yo. Help too in commissioning and paying all your favorite TNBC artists you know/see because we all need your support like @ask-lock-shock-and-barrel.
Finally, it means EVERYTHING to me, financially and emotionally, that you purchase my ebook and give it a read and show it to your family.
Mouse the Witching Cat is a love letter to animals and spooky vibes that made me who I am. Supporting it is genuinely supporting me.

Pokémon Speculation
I'm sure that someone else thought of this, but I really don't want to spend the time running through various Reddit threads and youtube videos unless I have to.
So, the Unova/Isshu region has a lot of Pokémon species based off animals from the African savannah, South American rainforests, and Indonesian jungles. These are areas in our world where the corresponding animals are critically endangered. Some examples:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Minccino = Chinchillas, which are hunted for their fur and kept as pets. Some species are still critically endangered.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Darmanitan = Orangutans (duh), who have lost much of their natural habitat and now only live in Borneo and Sumatra. They are also critically endangered.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Zebstrika = the Grevy's Zebra, which is (you guessed it) endangered. There was once a Zebra variety called Quaggas that humans drove to extinction. We've attempted to bring it back with breeding to mixed results.
I could go on, but there's more...
Unova is also based on New York City and is one of the more developed Pokémon regions in terms of urbanization. It also is a Pokémon region where the local species are largely protected from outside, "invasive" species (to the point that the developers clearly scrapped having a Tauros and Luvdisc evolution and thought we wouldn't notice).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Really?
My speculation is that at some point in Unova's ancient past, it had a thriving savannah and jungle ecosystem and that the indigenous people there lived in relative harmony with the land. Sigilyph, Golerk, and Yamask echo the art and folklore of different ancient tribes from the Middle East to support this theory.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Golurk and Sigilyph both have Pokedex entries about protecting ancient civilizations, while Yamask wanders the ruins of ancient cities. Yamask is even said to be a dead human reincarnated into a Pokemon, possibly from these tribes(!)
Around 2500 years ago, the back story of the two brothers and the great dragon occurred, and ultimately, Unova was left open to urbanization after the split. Foreign humans started settling the land with more dangerous technology than the native Unovans (both human and Pokémon) could keep up with, and their urban sprawl destroyed many of the lush habitats there. As more and more people came to the area, they also brought in Pokémon that were not native to Unova, which had already adapted to blend in with human technology and likely assist their trainers in their destruction. Many Pokémon species were either driven to extinction or bred with compatible species to produce new variations, at the cost of never being able to gain their original forms back. Ancient Unova and its ecosystem was destroyed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You can't tell me that these Pokémon are naturally adapted to a savannah or jungle environment. They were either invasive species or they rapidly adapted through crossbreeding to survive in the new urban sprawl.
This speculative history would reflect that of both the United States' and Japanese colonization. It would also explain why, in modern times, there is so much concern for Pokémon - particularly the native Unovan ones - and their wellbeing. These Pokémon are all that's left of a once diverse and wild ecosystem, and the people pf Unova overwhelmingly want to keep them from harm. This makes them susceptible to extremists who weaponize their righteous passion; enter Team Plasma.

Forgotten/unwanted sexyman (according to tumblr)
A thread. We add to it. Add more especially those which are horribly underrated in relation to Sans or Jack Skellington or Alastor or whoever. This isn't about them. This is for men who are 100% someone's blorbo crush in the making.
Captain of the Dead from Petit Vampire
Tumblr media
So this ndead big hat boneman scoops up dismayed single mother who's kid is about to be killed cuz she pledges herself to whoever saves them both and he takes advantage of that cuz he's a revenenant.
As soon as said mother and child are on his ship and in his stewards he immediately apologizes about the circumstances, doesn't expect anything of her or for her to even like him cuz, I mean, he did this to her, but vows to protect them from their now supernatural stalker forever. SHE then talks him into making her his wife for all eternity because HAWT DAMN and he's all blushie and wowed and happily adopts her now eternal child like the good himbo daddy he is.
Holy fuck.

I just read Chapter 51 of TDS, and I'll leave comments soon. I knew Chuck's shooting would be in the chapter, and I'm sure there will be more to follow in Chapter 52. I'm glad Connie was with him, as she's such a reassuring presence and someone who can complete a job when something needs doing. But I was curious if you thought of having June in the scene or did that seem too contrived?
This is an absolutely fabulous question, and I'm going to try and articulate a real answer.
From the first time that the relationship between Chuck and June has been brought up, which was in a Thirsty Thursday drabble a loooong time ago, I've tried to emphasize that June is here for a good time, not a long time. She's not interested in the traditional trappings of a relationship - she is not a woman who needs to have a boyfriend to show off to her friends. And from the very first, Chuck has been the one who is taking this a little more seriously than she is, who really is thinking that maybe this could be something after the war. And maybe it could! But the simple fact is that he gets shot, and in the immediate aftermath of that, June is faced with a relationship that will not be fun any more - it will be work. Hard, unglamorous, possibly unrewarding work. And she is not about that.
There's this trope, in BoB OC fics, that everyone ends happily. There's a cute wedding in Austria down by the lake and they go home and the war is a bad memory they reminisce about at barbecues. When I first started writing TDS, I knew I wanted to write a bunch of relationships that would go in a bunch of different directions. Marj and Allen were going to be the only couple that made it to the end unscathed - and then Marj and Lip were sort of perfect for each other, so I torpedoed that idea and turned Allen into a man everyone is going to punch in the face the next time they see him. Lew and Kathryn, Frankie and Dave…they were all doomed from the start, and so were Chuck and June. It's not that June's a…a bad person, per se. She's just…not ready for a relationship that asks that much of her. When the going got tough, she was always going to run away, because there are people out in the world who do that, and I'm always afraid I write too many saints.
I wrote most of that Chuck and Connie scene yesterday morning, and I hope it conveys that Chuck is a genuinely good guy - someone who would, in a perfect timeline, actually give June the life she wants, someone who's not going to tie her to a stove the way her mother was. But she doesn't hear any of that - and that's what makes her eventual abandonment hurt even more.
So in the next chapter, she is going to come in, the next morning, and she is going to see what is directly in front of her - a man with a long road to recovery ahead - and it is going to terrify her, and she is going to run.
And that's why she's not in the scene, and Connie is.

THE FACE IS FAMILIAR… BUT I CAN’T PLACE THE NAME!
Same Actor / Different Character ~ Part 2: “The Lucy Show"
Tumblr media
It used to be quite common for actors to be cast in multiple roles on the same series. Not in principal parts, certainly, but in supporting and minor characters. Lucycoms were no exception. Although the world created by these shows was representative of reality, the characters who populated them often gave viewers Deja vu.
For the purposes of this discussion, we won’t include background performers (aka extras) as they were nearly always drawn from the same pool of actors. Also, those who played multiple characters need to have at least one of them identified by name.
MARY JANE CROFT
Tumblr media
Croft (a veteran of "I Love Lucy") was introduced to viewers as Audrey Simmons in 8 episodes from episode 8 in 1962. When the show's location was changed to Los Angeles, Croft also changed - into Mary Jane Lewis, which was her legal name during her marriage to producer / director Elliott Lewis. When Vivian Vance left the cast, and Lucy failed to fill her 'second banana' spot, Croft's role became increasingly more integral to the show. The second MJ was seen in 31 episode, including the series finale.
CAROLE COOK
Tumblr media
A protege of Ball's from the Desilu Playhouse, Cook was introduced as Thelma Green in five episodes set in Danfield. Unusually, during that time she also played Betty Jo Hanson at "Lucy's College Reunion" (1963). Perhaps the episodes were aired out of filming sequence. When the show moved West, she played socialite Mrs. Valance for three episodes, and a variety of other characters (large and small) in 11 more.
ROY ROBERTS
Tumblr media
Roberts was best known as Bank President Mr. Cheever, a role he played in 14 episodes starting halfway through season five and including the series finale. But he first appeared as the Admiral in "Lucy and the Submarine" (1966). Roberts was likely typecast as Mr. Cheever after playing a similar role on "The Beverly Hillbillies" from 1965 to 1967.
MARY WICKES
Tumblr media
Wickes was a great friend of Lucille Ball's. While she only made one appearance on "I Love Lucy", she was seen much more frequently on "The Lucy Show". In her first appearance she played a character named Mary Wickenhauser, Wickes' birth name. It wasn't long before she was back as Fran, one of the Danfield volunteer firefighters, in three episodes. When the series went to LA, she was Lucy's Aunt Gussie in two episodes, followed by one-offs Miss Winslow, Miss Hurlow, and Aunt Agatha. In total, she played 6 characters in 9 episodes over 6 seasons! And that's just on one series!
LUCIE ARNAZ
Tumblr media
Before she joined the cast of "Here's Lucy" as a series regular in 1968, Lucy's daughter was given opportunities to perform on "The Lucy Show", although in small roles. In Danfield she was seen as Chris's friend Cynthia in several episodes. In LA, she played several different teenagers in five episodes.
HERB VIGRAN
Tumblr media
Vigran started out as Dr. Jacoby, the umpire of Danfield's softball team, in two episodes. He went on to play a variety of others: a doctor, a vet, a postman, and a computer salesman that was referred to as "Mr. Vigran"!
DOROTHY KONRAD
Tumblr media
Konrad used her own first name as a member of the Danfield Volunteer Fire Brigade in two episodes, then used her last name as one of Lucy's college alumni in another. She also played bank secretary Mrs. Hutton, and babysitter Mrs. Fletcher.
JOAN SWIFT
Tumblr media
Swift was most often seen using her own first name as a Los Angles co-worker of Mrs. Carmichael's. She also played an airline passenger, a French maid, and characters named Laurie and Dottie.
KAREN NORRIS
Tumblr media
Norris was seen in six episodes, each time as a different character, but all with dialogue. Her most significant role was as Babette Edwards, a woman about to have her sixth child in "Lucy and Viv Play Softball" (1963).
LEW PARKER
Tumblr media
Parker played Joan Crawford's agent, a movie producer scouting Frankie Avalon, Phil Harris' music producer, Mr. Mooney's lawyer AND his psychiatrist! In some episodes he used his own first name, in others he used his own last name.
PARLEY BAER
Tumblr media
Baer Started his "Lucy Show" life playing the man who sells Lucy Clementine the sheep. He went to be seen as two judges, an army colonel, and a doctor. Is it any wonder he was one of the most familiar faces on television?
KATHLEEN FREEMAN
Tumblr media
1964 was a big year for Freeman, who appeared on "The Lucy Show" five times in four different characters. She was known by her own first name in two episodes, but also played Olga the cook, Mrs. Putnam the maid, and Mrs. Blake the nurse.
GARY MORTON
Tumblr media
Morton was Lucille Ball's real-life husband, and also a producer on "The Lucy Show". His first role (not surprisingly) was as Lucy's boyfriend, named Gary Stewart. As a stand-up comedian, he was able to handle dialogue and was cast in three more small roles, one time using his real surname. In the end credits, he used his birth name Morton Goldaper. Speaking of Lucy's boyfriend...
KEITH ANDES
Tumblr media
Andes had played Lucy's love interest on Broadway in Wildcat (1960), so it wasn't a reach for him to do it again on "The Lucy Show." He played Bill King on two episodes set in Danfield. In Los Angeles he was back as Lucy's love interest, but this time named Brad Collins. Collins is an airline pilot, just like Lucy's boyfriend in Danfield, Harry Connors (Dick Martin).  Collins was also the surname of Viv's steady boyfriend, Eddie (Don Briggs), back in Danfield.
LOU KRUGMAN
Tumblr media
Krugman was one of Lucille Ball's favorite performers. He was instantly recognizable as the film director coping with Lucy Ricardo and her ungainly headpiece. On "The Lucy Show" his first appearance was as a Chemistry teacher named Dr. Adrian Vance (after Vivian, of course). He played a music producer named Barney Miller (no relation to the TV detective), and finally returned to playing a film director, again coping with Lucy as she watches John Wayne film a western.
JONATHAN HOLE
Tumblr media
Hole made his first appearance with Lucille Ball in 1966, playing a department store manager named Mr. Collins. That same year he was Mr. Haskell, a Palm Springs hotel manager where Lucy and Carol sing. Finally, he used his first name to play Jonathan Winslow, father of three rambunctious chimps babysat by Lucy.
RETA SHAW
Tumblr media
Shaw was a popular character actress from film (Mary Poppins), stage (The Pajama Game), and television ("The Ghost and Mrs. Muir"). She was seen as 3 different characters on "The Lucy Show" starting as a girthy granny at the fairgrounds when "Lucy Misplaces $2,000" (1962). In "My Fair Lucy" (1964) she was dominating Dora Dunbar, wealthy socialite. Finally, she played Mrs. Foley, owner of a roadside stand selling maps to the stars homes when "Lucy Goes to a Hollywood Premiere" (1966).
HARVEY KORMAN
Tumblr media
Korman is best remembered from his hilarious work on "The Carol Burnett Show", but he was also worked with Carol's mentor, Lucille Ball, playing 3 roles on "The Lucy Show." First he was Mr. Slater, manager of a day camp where "Lucy and Viv are Camp Cooks" (1964). The next year he was twitchy stockbroker Mr. Phillips. During the series' first LA episode, Korman played Major Grayson, who is in charge of a military academy.
PAUL WINCHELL
Tumblr media
Paul Winchell was best known as a ventriloquist and the inventor of an artificial heart (seriously). In 1966 he played himself on "Here's Lucy," also showcasing some of his most famous creations. The following year he was cast as Doc Putnam, a little old man, in a two part musical episode "Main Street USA". He was barely recognizable. The role required him to sing and dance, which led to a falling out between his daughter and Lucy. She felt that Lucy was working him too hard and being exceptionally cruel.
KASEY ROGERS
Tumblr media
Rogers is best remembered for playing Louise Tate on “Bewitched” from 1966 to 1972.  For Lucy, she played Miss Cavanaugh, manager of a flight attendant training school attended by Lucy and Carol (Burnett). In the final season, she played Miss Carroll, secretary to Phil Harris.
LLOYD CORRIGAN
Tumblr media
Corrigan appeared in two films with Lucille Ball before joining her on the small screen as Mr. Holly of Holly Cleaners on the first season of "The Lucy Show". He returned to play gentleman crook Carter Harrison (a name that when reversed is given to Gale Gordon's character on "Here's Lucy" and the unnamed proprietor of a Los Angeles Christmas Tree stand.
TED ECCLES
Tumblr media
Teddy Eccles was the second child actor to play Arnold Mooney. When Mr. Mooney and Lucy moved to Los Angeles, their children were hardly ever discussed. So Eccles was given the roles of cadet Harold, and Barry the choirboy.
HAL SMITH
Tumblr media
Smith was best known as Otis the drunk on "The Andy Griffith Show," filmed at Desilu. For "Lucy" he played Mr. Wilson, one of the dads on an all-dad (plus Lucy) camping trip, and tuba-toting Mr. Weber in the two episodes set on "Main Street" of Bancroft.
WILLARD WATERMAN
Tumblr media
Former "Great Gildersleeve" on radio, Waterman played TV host Greg Gregory in “Lucy and the Plumber” (1964), followed by Tex Critter at the dude ranch in "Lucy the Rain Goddess" (1966).
DICK PATTERSON
Tumblr media
Patterson was a Broadway performer who played the "doctor" in "Lucy and the Beauty Doctor" (1966). The "doctor" was actually a TV host for a hidden camera show. He returned seven months later to play Marty King, director of Danny Thomas’s television show. 
DORIS SINGLETON
Tumblr media
Doris had originated the role of Carolyn Appleby on "I Love Lucy". On "The Lucy Show" she first played Ruth Cosgrove in "Lucy and Art Linkletter" (1966). Her character name was the real-life name of Milton Berle's wife, who would actually appear in season five as herself! Singleton returned to the series when "Lucy Gets Her Diploma" (1967) using her own first name. Doris (the character) has very little to do with the plot.  Her scene might have been originally meant for Mary Jane but reassigned to Singleton due the indisposition of Croft.
RUTA LEE
Tumblr media
Lee made her big screen debut in MGM’s Seven Bride for Seven Brothers in 1954. She was seen in many Desilu shows, finally acting opposite Lucille Ball on “The Lucy Show” as “Lucy’s Substitute Secretary” (1967). That same year she played herself opposite the aforementioned Ruth Cosgrove-Berle!
JACKIE COOGAN
Tumblr media
One of the first child actors in Hollywood, Coogan is best remembered as Uncle Fester on "The Addams Family." He was mentioned on "I Love Lucy," but finally meets her face to face as Lieutenant Ruggles in "Lucy and the Military Academy" (1963). Five years later he was back as Mr. Burton, manager of a drive-in hamburger stand when "Lucy Gets Involved" (1968).
JAY NOVELLO
Tumblr media
Novello started acting with Lucy on her radio show and was also seen on "I Love Lucy." In this series he plays Mr. Bundy, candy shop owner and safe cracker , and (1963) Tony DiBello, owner of an Italian Restaurant (1964) where Lucy takes her millionaire date.
