Siren Theory: Boxman’s Parents

So I’ve been obsessively examining OK KO for a while now, and I often found myself wondering: “Yo... why is Boxman Like That?” His behavior throughout the series, especially the way he treats his kids and interacts with others, suggests to me that he has a lot of unaddressed issues from his past.

Well, one thing led to another, and now here’s my headcanon designs for his parents. Idk dude, they kinda... made themselves.

[More info under the cut so this post isn’t too long lmao]

Boxman’s Father - Heron Once a sailor and now a woodsman, Heron lives alone in the middle of the forest. Well, he’s not completely alone... Having a special bond with nature, Heron is quick to make friends with wild creatures, and his closest companion is a pterodactyl he’s named Paulie. Heron is a crafty man with skills in construction, carving, knitting, and gardening, but his most impressive ability is probably his strength, as he can lift things that are much larger and heavier than himself with relative ease. Oh, and he’s afraid of his wife...

Boxman’s Mother - Meredith Meredith is a siren, a bird-woman who can control people with her singing. Having failed to become a world-renowned singer herself, Meredith now tries to live out her life’s dream through her kids. She is pompous and difficult to please, and even though she isn’t a popular singer, she is a powerful siren and a terrifying woman when she wants to be.

That’s all I’m going to say about this theory for now! Maybe you can see where I’m going with it though lol :3c

I’m actually hoping to make a comic series using this concept, so a lot more will be revealed in the future! But of course, making these comics will take a lot of time and effort, so you’ll have to bear with me. 😅

If you’re eager to know more, I’m totally open to answering questions about this! You can send me an ask or throw a rock through my window or somethin’, idk. My answers may be kind of vague depending on the question, though, because I don’t want to spoil too much!

(Also I’ll probably share some behind-the-scenes content on my patreon as I work on this project! Maybe consider supporting me there if you wanna see more 😉)
