#Hermey doesn't like to make toys

[adamdna]

Hermey doesn't like to make toys!

[rucksackmentality]

List of the truths shared in Nana Morri's Honesty trial (C3E79):

Imogen: I am genuinely scared to meet my mom again.

Laudna: Deep down inside, both Delilah and I want the shard...Fearne should have it, but I don't know anymore what's my opinion or desires or feelings, or hers.

Imogen: I love Laudna deeply but I'm disgusted at the thought of Delilah looking at us all the time.

Orym: I'm super lonely all the time, especially at night. It doesn’t matter if I'm bunking with one of you guys.

FCG: Sometimes I pity some of you because you have beating hearts and opportunities and you don’t do enough with them...Chetney, you have so much love to give and it doesn't seem like you're interested in anything other than wood! There's people out there who you could love and experiences you could share with someone else, but all you care about is wood!

Orym: I've always kind of laughed it off but I guess I do kind of wonder if Chetney is my dad.

Ashton: I am the reason that the Jiana Hexum robbery went fucking wrong, and the reason why I got thrown out of a fucking window.

Fearne: I feel like we’re very ill-equipped for this job and we're going to fail at saving the world. (Laudna: Honestly that's probably true, I'm right there with you.)

Chetney: While wood may be the superior material to metal, I do fear that, with the dwindling interest in it, that children will find my toys - and thereby myself - obsolete every year I grow older.

FCG: I think it's something buried deep down in my circuitry, but every time I hurt or kill something - it feels really good. It makes me sort of relax a little bit and some of my stress goes away.

Imogen: I know we're supposed to save the gods, but I've tried talking to them my whole life and none of them would ever respond. I think I'm tainted. I dont know if I want to save gods that don't love me.

Laudna: You know we could rip-cord out of [saving the world] at any moment...right? And sometimes I fantasize about it all the time.

Fearne: I sometimes do stuff to you guys while you're sleeping - not weird stuff, I just like to look at you closely...and maybe like, twiddle your hair or braid it. Nothing bad!

Ashton: Whenever it starts to get quiet, I start worrying that one of us - most of us - are going to end up killing another one of us accidentally...I have panicked thinking about when one you kills another one of us.

Orym: I have all the faith in the world in you guys...and I have also spent time thinking of how to neutralize each of you.

FCG: I kinda worry that I put all my eggs in the Changebringer basket and she might betray us all. I had a really weird conversation with her and I think she's just out for herself and she might not really care about me - but what if she does? And I'm saying horrible things?

Imogen: Fearne, I was really disappointed in you for running away from your power. You should take the shard!

Orym: I really miss Dorian, and sometimes I think that's okay, and sometimes I think it isn't.

Ashton: I feel fucking worse that I just fucked up Fearne's life way more than mine and I should've died instead of that happening.

Chetney: I grew up in the Bramblewood outside of Westruun, and when I was a kid, I came back from learning how to make toys and found that my whole family had left. All they left behind were toys. They ran when Errevon the Rimelord was running across the plains, and so I'm kind of afraid of dragons. And I had five siblings - Alabaster, Pepper, Sugarplum, Hermey, and Chad - and I was so mad that they left I never looked for any of them, and now I'm pretty sure they're dead. So I think any family I have is just gonna look for a reason to leave me. That's why I don't get attached to anybody.

[girlwhowontshutupaboutjasontodd]

Every year, my family watches Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. In the past few years, the tradition has evolved into me trying to get everyone to agree with my theory that Hermey the elf is Trans.

I have been told to shut up many times but it makes so much sense!

All of the guy elves are bald. All the girl elves have blond hair.

But it goes so much deeper than that. Hermey is a was born a toy maker but knows deep down he's supposed to be something else... a dentist. It's a metaphor!!!

It also adds so much to the fact that he's a "misfit." The fact the fact that he doesn't fit in. The other elves exclude him. But he ends up finding a community of others like him.

And he's just so sweet I love him so much

[el-huddpudd]

It's the [honesty] climb

FCG, "I enjoy eating silver more than copper."

Imogen, "I am genuinely scared to meet my mom again."

Laudna, "Deep down inside, both Delilah and I kind of want the shard.

Imogen, "I love Laudna deeply. But I'm disgusted at the thought of Delilah looking at us all the time."

Orym, "I'm super lonely all the time, especially at night. Doesn't matter if I'm bunking with one of you guys."

FCG, "Sometimes I pity some of you because you have beating hearts and opportunities and you don't do enough with them."

Orym, "I've always laughed it off but I guess I do kind of wonder if Chetney is my dad."

Ashton, "I am the reason that the Jiana Hexum job went fucking wrong and the reason why I got thrown out of a fucking window."

Fearne, "I feel like we're very ill equipped to do this job and we're gonna to fail at saving the world."

Chetney, "While wood may be the superior material to metal I do fear that with the dwindling interest in it that children will find my toys and thereby myself obsolete every year that I grow older."

FCG, "So I think it's something buried deep down in my circuitry, but every time I hurt or kill something, I feel really good. It makes me sort of relax a little bit and some of my stress goes away."

Imogen, "I know we're supposed to save the gods but I've tried talking to them my whole life and none of them will ever respond. I think I'm tainted. I don't know if I want to save gods that don't love me."

Laudna, "You know we could all ripcord out of this at any moment, right? And I don't mean this scavenger hunt, I mean saving the world, right? Sometimes I fantasize about it all the time."

Fearne, "I sometimes I do stuff to you guys while you're sleeping. Not weird stuff. I just like to look at you closely."

Ashton, "Anytime it's too quiet, I start worrying one of us or most of going to end up killing another one of us, accidentally." (Orym, very gently.)

Orym, "I have all the faith in the world you guys, all of you. And I have also spent time thinking how to neutralize each of you."

FCG, "I kind of worry that I put all my eggs in the Changebringer basket and she might betray us all. I had a really weird conversation with her and I think she's just out for herself and she might not care about me at all."

Imogen, "Fearne, I was really disappointed in you for running away from your power. You should take the shard."

Orym, "I really miss Dorian and sometimes I think that's okay and sometimes I think it isn't."

[bronzecauldron]

let's get one thing clear

HERMEY DOESN'T LIKE TO MAKE TOYS

[obstlich]

Hey I really wish I could say I'm sorry but I'm totally not. My little contribution. Ps I sent this to my friend who isn't active on tumblr and she replies "What does it mean?!?"

[hollythemage]

Have y'all ever noticed all the parallels between Naruto and Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer?

Like, they both start out with a protagonist that is heavily ostracized for something they have no control over.

For Rudolph it's his nose.

For Naruto it's the Nine Tailed Beast sealed inside of him.

There's an authority figure who is renowned as an excellent leader and the protagonist looks up to them. The authority figure is aware of the fact that the protagonist is ostracized by their peers, and yet they seemingly do absolutely nothing to condemn these open acts of discrimination despite arguably being in the best position out of anyone to bring about the changes necessary to make the protagonist's life less miserable.

For Rudolph, it's Santa Claus.

For Naruto, it's Hiruzen.

The protagonist meets someone from their same home town who is in a similar position to them. They don't fit in and they don't get along with their peers. They have a set goal in mind, and eventually they come to the conclusion that they would have a better chance of fulfilling that goal if they left their home town behind and ventured out into the world beyond it.

For Rudolph, this is Hermey the Elf.

Hermey doesn't get along as well with his fellow elves because he isn't all that crazy about making toys.

No, Hermey has a different goal in mind. He wants to be a dentist.

When he expresses this desire, the other elves mock him, and his boss even goes so far as to fire him.

In retaliation, Hermey declared that his boss can't fire him because he has already chosen to quit his job at the toy factory.

He then leaves the north pole, because he knows that he would never be respected in his desired profession if he stayed there.

For Naruto, this is Sasuke Uchiha.

Sasuke has difficulties getting along with his peers due to the trauma of losing his entire family after his older brother Itachi slaughtered everyone else in the Uchiha Clan.

His goal is to avenge his dead family by tracking Itachi down and killing him, but in order to do that, he has to get stronger.

Orochimaru offers to train Sasuke and teach him the skills he needs to kill his brother in exchange for being allowed to use Sasuke's body as his next vessel.

Eventually Sasuke leaves Konoha to begin training under Orochimaru.

Side note: Unlike Naruto, Rudolph actually leaves with his friend Hermey after realizing that his peers don't respect him and that no matter what he does, no one seems to be able to get over his nose. Which is ironic considering that Rudolph actually had parents waiting for him at home, and he still decided to just pack up his shit and leave with his new elf friend on impulse without telling anyone.

Meanwhile Naruto is an orphan who doesn't have parents. He doesn't even have adoptive parents. He doesn't even seem to have any kind of legal guardian at all. Hell aside from having his basic material and educational needs met through the financial support granted to him by the state, he really doesn't have all that much access to social or emotional support on a regular basis. He lives alone and the few people who tolerate his existence are mostly other kids around his age and his teachers (and Ramen Guy. God bless). And yet he never seems to even consider leaving Konoha.

On the contrary he seems determined to drag Sasuke's ass back to Konoha even if he has to do so with the Uchiha kicking and screaming all the way there.

Both protagonists go through various trials and tribulations until they eventually gain the chance to prove that they can be useful to their peers and finally earn the basic human decency that they always deserved and that they never should have had to earn in the first place. And they do this by being useful to the same people who have spent the majority of their lives ostracizing and neglecting them.

At least Rudolph gets somewhat of an apology from Santa before Santa asks him to use his glowing nose to guide the other reindeer pulling his sleigh through the snowstorm, but Naruto doesn't get that same courtesy.

Up until the moment he saves Konoha from Pain's invasion, there is very little indication that a majority of the people in Konoha who have been neglecting him since he was a child have changed their tune.

And after Naruto saves them, it is openly acknowledged that this change of tune is due almost entirely to the fact that Naruto had finally proved that he could be useful to them. Or at least useful enough for them to make an effort to get on his good side despite barely ever bothering to get to know him personally.

Unlike Rudolph, Naruto acknowledges the hollow, empty feeling it leaves him with to know that his worth as a person in the eyes of his peers is reducible to the benefits that he can provide to them, rather than any other part of who he is as a person.

He even acknowledges that he still holds a grudge against the other villagers for not being there for him in the past when he was growing up in Konoha.

He manages to overcome those inner demons at the waterfall of truth, but I can't help but feel as though this seems empty as well considering that none of his new fans seemed to have bothered apologizing for the shit they put him through when he was little, and even if they did then the apologies would just ring hollow since they only happened after he saved the village and rose to fame. And yet he still forgives them and pledges to move on if that is what it would take to prepare for what was to come.

Finally, a majority of the people responsible for ostracizing, harassing, or neglecting the protagonist are never held accountable for what they did, and there is little to no indication that the people in charge are going to enact any kind of policy against harassment or discrimination in order to prevent these incidents from happening again in the future.

Neither Santa Claus nor any of the Hokage that were in power during Naruto's life ever mention attempting to use their authority or the resources at their disposal to prevent history from repeating itself.

They aren't shown passing laws to safeguard individuals from being harassed for something they have no control over, despite knowing that Naruto and Rudolph suffered from those exact problems. And the reason this is so important is because a change in attitude towards the protagonist doesn't automatically equate to a change in attitude towards other people who are discriminated against for similar reasons, especially if the protagonist is treated as a special case and thus an exception to the rule. All it means is that the protagonist's reputation has changed for the better. Whether or not other socially alienated individuals will continue to suffer from discrimination has yet to be seen.

And even if those broader societal attitudes do change, it doesn't necessarily mean that the institutions that allowed such abuses to occur must have changed as well.

As long as the legal and social systems remain the way they are, there is always a possibility that the abuse will occur again and continue to go unpunished. Attitudes against harassment and discrimination can only go so far without a higher power to reinforce them, such as a legal system to penalize people for committing such offenses.

It's also a lot easier for popular opinion to revert back to what it was if there are no rules in place to enshrine those sentiments in public policy, so any changes that the protagonist has managed to make aren't guaranteed to last.

Also, the fact that Naruto seems to think that he'll only see the changes he wants to see in the village if he becomes the Hokage indicates that he assumes he's going to have to do all of those things himself since he can't rely on anyone else to do it for him.

That is sad as hell.

A person shouldn't have to become a world leader in order to draw attention towards a problem as serious and pervasive as systemic neglect and abuse, and they shouldn't have to face the monumental task of addressing those issues all on their own either.

If you feel as though your only recourse for addressing the injustices that have been committed against you is to become your government's head of state then there is something seriously wrong with that government.

It doesn't matter if the Hokage is an elected position because even representatives are elected via the majority vote and that still leaves plenty of room for abuse if that same majority decides to collectively neglect or abuse someone. Also I doubt that kids as young as Naruto have voting rights and if they do then it is never mentioned.

Oh well, at least he is the Hokage now.

So basically in summary; Rudolph and Naruto spent their whole lives being discriminated against for something they had no control over only for everyone to suddenly change their tune and begin worshipping them as heroes the second that their usefulness was shown to outweigh whatever perceived flaws had caused those same people to despise them throughout their childhoods.

The North Pole and Konoha do not deserve them.

[magmagpie]

I have a lot of headcanons ;)

Elves have fangs but they make Alfur feel threatening or untrustworthy so he tries his best to hide them. Hilda finds out about them one day when she jump scares him and he screams

Elves have fur

Alfur and Twig are like best friends

Elves are vulnerable af to cold climates

Alfur has a little sister named Dea, who he's really close to and she calls him 'Alfy'

Alfur still feels guilty about what happened to the Bragga family

Alfur hates violence, but if something big is at stake or if someone he deeply cares for gets hurt, he's ready to throw down

He hates being stepped on even though it doesn't effect him, as it was said it was traumatizing to have a giant foot come through your ceiling even if it won't hurt them

Alfur is afraid of riding rabbits

As a child, he was obsessed with woffs, that's why he's so confident about the fact they migrate 'willy nilly'

He loves Disney and still cries about Walt Disney passing away

Unlike his classmates as a kid, his favorite subject was not english, but history

Alfur is a great singer, even better than David, he's just shy and doesn't like singing in front of people

He, just like Hilda, was once greatly intrigued by magic, but lost all drive to continue it when he was almost banished for using it

Alfur likes to make friends with the bugs that Hilda will bring home sometimes from out of David's hair

Alfur and Frida get along fine, but sometimes they get into organization battles and Hilda and Joanna come home to a very nice house and can't find things for a week

Joanna buys tiny food items, like mini loafs of bread and genetically mutated mini cucumbers for Alfur

Alfur was once 'eaten' by a bargus and is still scared by it to this day

Alfur is afraid of big fire and tries to be as subtle as possible when avoiding the fireplace

Alfur's only friend before meeting Hilda was his hat, which is why he's so willing to go against his people's wishes and help her, and why he's so excited to go to trollburg and start a new life there

He loves writing his reports, but gets very stressed about making them perfect so stays up all night analyzing and editing

He's scared of waking up to find he has to go back to his village and say goodbye to his new friends

He isn't actually on the taller side for an elf, he just said that to defend his size. He's actually really short for an elf(did you see how much shorter he was than the Lost Clan elves??)

He absolutely adores country music like Carry Underwood and Jonny Cash

He was in guitar classes when he was little and is really good at playing acoustic on his tiny wooden guitar

Elves' hearing is really acute and noises that are too loud(like Hilda shouting about the king's lack of hands) give them headaches

AU where Hilda is Rudolf and Alfur is Hermey. Twig is still Twig. Cornelius is Raven. Mr and Mrs Donner are both Joanna. Clarice is split into Freida and David. The misfit toys are the different creatures Hilda met in the series. The Bumble is a mute, very misunderstood Jorgan, still waiting for his friend, who really did leave(but it wasn't her choice, her family made her). The head elf is the Mayor. Mrs. Claus is the Prime Minister and Santa is the king(but they arent together).

Alfur is always very stressed about what story he would be hearing later when, if, Hilda comes home

He sometimes wonders if some of the elves even know he's gone

Aside from his reports, he also writes letters to his family. Unfortunately, they never write back, as they are still disappointed he sided with the enemy, particularly his father

He loves cats, even when they try to eat him

Whenever he gets writer's block, Hilda takes him to school with her or they go on a walk in the woods

The reason it's such an important tradition of elves to be 'sniffy' about who sees them and who doesn't is because one time an elf(I visualize like Alfur's parents or something) trusted a human authority figure with their presence and it resulted in a full blown rampage on their village. A lot of elves died and a lot of houses were destroyed. Alfur lost his grandparents and older brother in this attack, and almost lost his parents

Alfur tried raising a baby woff when he was in his woff phase when he found it alone and injured. His parents allowed him to keep it until it could fly again. He still misses it sometimes

He's been ambidextrous since he learned how to write

He's deathly allergic to nuts. Peanuts, tree nuts, walnuts, etc.

He's terrified of bees

Spiders give him heart attacks(he's so scared of them, they're so scary up close, and so big!)

He has an eagle friend who he visits every year and they take long flights over different forests and they just have the best time

He loves dragon fruit

And also actual dragons

His sneezes make him sound like he's dying after

Alfur has anxiety for rules, dark places, confined rooms or hallways, perfect paperwork, and overly dangerous situations

He develops momentary claustrophobia if he isn't able to leave a small space easily

He sometimes wishes they were back in the country, just like Hilda. The sights were pretty, especially when you were so small, the world seemed to curl around you at times

Alfur and Hilda are both hardcore obsessed with Pókemon. Hilda's favorite pokemon is deerling, and Alfur can't choose just one, but he likes Pikachu's pointy ears - he thinks they're so cute!

Alfur clicks his pens(somehow without thumbs, idk, don't question it) when he's nervous, stressed, bored, excited, or when he has a severe case of writer's block

Alfur loves watching dramas, specifically romances(they're so full of life!)

Alfur has a secret admiration of horror movies. He can't watch too many at once, but he never passes up the chance to curl up with a tiny pillow and be scared shitless

Inside his satchel, more than just paperwork is held. He also has an old woff plushy he had when he was a kid. He likes to watch his horror movies with it, too

Alfur is 22 years old(just my set age for him)

Alfur genuinely sees Joanna as a mother figure to him, as well as Hilda, with his own practically disowning him

Alfur is a lgbtq+ ally change my mind

Alfur got his name because his parents originally hadn't planned him and were surprised to hear of their upcoming child. They didn't know the gender and hadn't picked anything out so they just called him 'elf' until he was born, then made it more official with the proper Scandinavian translation of 'Alfur'

Elves can be killed by pesticides just like bugs, it basically poisons their tiny lungs

After their fall from the forest giant in that one episode, both Alfur and Twig are low key scared of heights

Alfur knows a lot of pick up lines, he's just too nervous and anxious and self-conscious to use any of them

Alfur sees Hilda Joanna and Twig as part of his family

He always has to remind himself his family hadn't wanted the Braggas to be exiled and it wasn't their fault

Alfur hates getting his picture taken

He's a heckin' great artist. Like, he could make tiny copies of the Mona Lisa if he really wanted

He's memorised the entire periodic table

He's fluent in Scandinavian languages like German, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian. Multilingual elf boi

Joanna will sometimes use her free time to make little clothes for Alfur, which never takes her very long

Alfur can't stay still for very long without having to fidget with something(another time his clicks his pens)

He's pretty good with electronics, which surprised everyone when he volunteered to fix the tv once. He needs bigger people to do most of the work so he doesn't electrocute himself, but he gives the instructions

Never take his hat. It's alive. It has a mouth and little fangs. He'll bite you. He only likes members of the Aldric family, especially Alfur

AU where Alfur is bitten or cursed by something/someone and wakes up the next day as a werewolf elf. But unlike typical werewolves, he remembers everything he does as a tiny wolf and his transformations are really really painful. His werewolf form is just him, but he has brown fur, the little tufts of hair on his head extend to a point and get pretty messy, his ears get a little longer, his teeth are really sharp and he has fangs, he grows a snout and nose like a dog, and he grows, like, little black hands and claws. (I've drawn something for it, but I'm gonna make that it's own post)

Alfur's spirit animal is a bearded dragon

He has a huge collection of ugly Christmas sweaters that his human friends think are really cute

He can knit, just not very well

The elves that saw Jorgan crush Hilda's house still have nightmares about a giant foot smashing their house and have developed a fear of giants. Alfur was one of these elves, and while he has gotten over the fear of giants, he does still have nightmares about a huge giant crushing their home in Trollburg

He also has nightmares about the many times Hilda's foot or Twig phased into his elf house

He has an older brother named Alfred(heheheheh yes I did) who went missing for a long time. He was also the one who gave Alfur the living hat right before he disappeared

Fairies are the only creature that doesn't need to sign any sort of papers to interact with the elves. This scares Alfur to no end, as he once knew a very mean fairy

Alfur was bulled as a kid because he's part of the family that got other elves to be banished and because he was the only elf who's family member was absent(elves don't typically travel very far in their lifetime so it's odd for them to leave or pick up unknown illnesses)

Alfur's brother's friends always treated him like a pest until his brother went missing, then they stepped in kinda as replacement brothers

Elves treat writer's block like a disease in terms of drama. Like, if they get it, they start screaming and crying and anyone who hears about it apologizes like their cat just died or something. Alfur was never one of them, tho

His lucky number is 7

He hates hotdogs, and is simply disgusted by the thought of them(me too tbh)

Alfur is hecking good at poetry and loves reading it in his spare time

His favorite color is red

He loves heat. Like, you could put him in the freaking microwave and you'll find him taking a nap

He simply adores the sky and the stars. He's memorized a ton of constellations and can make out the other planets just by looking. Stargazing is his number 1 hobby

He's been trying to do things for his people to 'make up' for what happened to the Braggas

He's that friend that puts P.P.P.P.S. at the end of letters

LISTEN HERE (metaphorically)

I want all of your Alfur headcanons and AUs.

All that etc.

Pile them on.

I want to hear them.

ALL OF THEM.

EVEN THE “BAD” ONES!
