i was thinking about fionna and cake’s version of jermaine, and drew her this morning!! i posted her to r/adventuretime and she didn’t do too bad there, so i started writing stuff for fionna and cake world lol more headcanons below the cut :)
i originally posted her under the name “jasmeen” but i think corrine would be better suited for the sibling alliteration with cake :) huge thanks to some of the users in the reddit comments who helped brainstorm some of this!! lemme know what u think lol
fionna was adopted at birth by a (human) couple, cynthia and marlowe. cynthia works in the city’s forensics department and they both own a funeral home/cemetery. they have big hearts, and have a hard time charging folks for caskets and burials. they owned two cats, corrine and cake, and fionna took cake with her when she moved out, leaving corrine at her (now elderly and retired) parents place. if corrine could walk and talk like cake in this world, she’d be running the funeral home and going after people for the money they owe her elderly parents. it’s shitty work and they aren’t hurting for money, but things in this life aren’t free, right? her true passion is sculpture, and eventually she learns to let the debts go and focus on her work.
fionna’s biological parents, milton campbell and mallory mertins, had a nice relationship in the beginning. but when mallory gave birth to fionna, she disappeared from the city with her. having always struggled with her mental health, mallory’s post-partum depression became post-partum psychosis and she left fionna at a safe surrender site in her daze. her psychosis spiraled and she was sent to prison before escaping into homelessness. milton died not long after their disappearance, after serving as a nurse for his entire career and saving thousands of lives. he even had a newly built hospital named after him after his death.
gary prince was on his own at a very early age, leaving the abusive home of his aunt georgia, uncle larry, and cousin chantal. georgia goes on and on about all the wonderful things she was meant to accomplish if she didn’t have to take in gary and his sister, and chantal goes along with it all. larry at least is sympathetic and sends money to them when he can. as a result, most of the money gary makes goes towards taking care of his special needs sister, nadine.
marshall lee was extremely close with his father, elijah, before he died. elijah wanted nothing to do with hana’s money or work, and raised their son in a small home in the forest. marshall grew up knowing how to rough it in the outdoors, before his mother took him away from that life and into a stuffy, proper one. she sold the house he grew up in and he never forgave her.
flora never knew where she came from. her favorite activity is catfishing dudes online. she hates her appearance, and feels like she’ll never truly know who she really is. after the events of the show fionna and cake, she learns all she can about fionna by stalking her online. she adopts fionna’s backstory as her own, and even commits a few instances of identity theft against her. this torments her and she hates doing it, but feels like she has no other choice. her and fionna look strikingly similar, and it has made her actually start to appreciate her own appearance and feel whole for once.
phoenix fleming hates his mother, she’s a big preacher in the local church and raised him as strictly as possible. he was barely allowed to leave the house until he moved out as soon as possible, and discovered his love for raves and DJing. he now devotes all his time to being dj flame, and his mother refuses to let him be. his next door neighbor, miss bundy, is kinder to him than his own mother ever was, and brings him treats every day.

"We Are Hitting the Mark with Our Axe Throwing Activity 🪓🎯
Whether it's a company picnic, school carnival, community fair, or team-building event, this activity has been a huge success!
The Wild West rustic-themed look of this inflatable axe-throwing booth is the perfect backdrop for epic photos and unforgettable memories.
Participants enjoy grabbing an axe and challenging friends, colleagues, or classmates; it's a great bonding experience for everyone.
Whether you're a spectator or participant, the activity really sparks a lot of excitement in the booth and from the sidelines.
It takes skill; it's not just for fun, but for the physical and mental development of employees or students at team-building events or school field days. Hitting the bullseye takes skill and concentration. Testing accuracy as participants aim for that perfect shot!
As event planners, we get a lot of themes coming through, and we find that this axe throwing game fits great with a western, sports, or carnival event. It's a unique activity that you don't see as much as you should; that's why we love bringing it; it draws people in.
It's a big, attractive entertainment piece that people flock to, which has been especially profitable at community fairs and carnivals where fundraising is the goal.
As a trusted vendor approved by schools, we can confidently say this piece meets all safety standards set in place for inflatable structures at school events.
With over 40+ years of experience and one of the LARGEST inventories of event entertainment in the country, we believe the inflatable axe throwing activity is a huge asset to a lot of different types of events that we organize.

MAKE TODAY COUNT!
Here's a little #motivation on a Thursday morning! 💜
'I hope to inspire you to do what YOU want, to NOT listen to the critics, use their criticism to MOTIVATE you and prove them wrong, LIVE YOUR BEST life and have FUN while doing it. Life is short and we only get one shot so make it count!' Kirsten Landman -> Inspirational Speaker| Hard Enduro & Rally Rider
Learn more about Kirsten by checking out her by clicking here.
Remember to MAKE TODAY COUNT! 😎
Kirsten Landman is not your average sportswoman.
The 28-year-old South African competes in the male dominated sport of Hard Enduro, but this has never held her back. She has made history by becoming the first female to finish extreme events such as Redbull Romaniacs, Sea to Sky, Redbull Megawatt 111, Redbull Braveman and The Roof of Africa. But there is so much more to her story than these achievements.
For Kirsten, competing in one of the most physically demanding sports in the world, and being one of the only females to truly excel in such a place, has been a passion of hers from a very young age. Living in South Africa and riding in its harsh, rugged and technical terrain and competing against men, has built an appetite for always aiming higher and realising her dreams.

“...?!” After finishing an errand for a teensy family, Krista felt a faint heavy feeling in her heart and an urge to go somewhere. “That’s odd.. why do I feel so worried all of a sudden? Maybe I should see the council and Dad to see if something’s wrong..” And so she did.

Some options for possible motives. The ghost was once a jilted lover who was scorned during the holiday season and now seeks revenge on those who are happy and in love. The ghost was once a miser who hoarded all of their wealth and possessions and now seeks to ruin the joy and generosity of the holiday season. The ghost was once a Scrooge-like figure who hated Christmas and all things related to it, and now seeks to spread their negativity and bitterness to others. The ghost was once a Grinch-like figure who wanted to steal Christmas and now seeks to disrupt the holiday festivities to fulfill their selfish desires. The ghost was once a victim of a crime that occurred during the holiday season and now seeks justice against those who wronged them. Ultimately, the motives of the vengeful ghost would be determined by the Dungeon Master and the events of the game. . . #haunting #vengefulghost #christmasparade #chaos #fear #townsfolk #adventurers #uncover #motives #terror #holidayseason #ghoststory #horror #paradehorror #christmaschaos #hauntedparade #scarychristmas #ghosthunting #paradeofterror #hauntings #vengefulspirits #christmasghost #adventuretime #paradeadventures #hauntedholidays #terrifyingparade #spookychristmas #ghostsintown #christmasmystery #adventureseekers (at Cincinnati) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl-W8EzsqDh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Interview with Half Shy (the songwriter of “Monster”)
For the last few months, I’ve been collecting information for a second edition of Exploring the Land of Ooo that will also cover the production of Distant Lands. This means that I’ve started to look into the new songs that we have been graced with this year, and this of course includes “Monster,” the beautiful track from the masterpiece that is “Obsidian”. And so I reached out to the song’s writer, Half Shy, who was kind enough to chat with me via email about the songwriting process!
(Photo courtesy of Half Shy)
In many ways, Half Shy is living the creative Adventure Time fan’s dream: She got asked by Adam Muto himself to write a song for “Obsidian” after he heard her music through Bandcamp! (I’ve dabbled in fan music before, and the fact that someone from the show might listen to it just blows my mind.) What an opportunity; I am so excited for her!
Since a second edition of my book won’t be coming out until after all the Distant Lands episodes air, I thought it would be best to share my Half Shy interview now. Read on for the fascinating behind the scenes story of how Half Shy and “Monster” came to be..
GunterFan: What is your origin story? How did you get involved in music, and how did the Half Shy project come to be?
Half Shy: I’ve been making music pretty quietly since I was in high school with a keyboard and guitar. I played one or two shows a year after college when I could find a friend or my brother to get up on stage with me, but I don’t really have that performer gene in me naturally. I get too much in my head and forget what the lyrics are to the song I wrote, or what the next chord is. Total brain freeze. So that whole experience is a bit of a mental drain. It’s something I think I’d like to dig into and figure out, but right now I’m really enjoying the time writing.
Even playing a song for my friends I still get pretty nervous. That’s where the name Half Shy comes from. I’ve always been interested in making things that by their nature draw a bit of a spotlight, but at the same time, I am just really quite nervous about the attention.
I recorded my first songs under my old name Hey V Kay in my bedroom and started putting them up online one at a time. When I got enough I thought about packaging it up into an album, but then got really distracted by learning how to fix up motorcycles and going to automotive tech school. When I eventually got back around to it I named the album Gut Wrenching.
After a few years I realized that I didn’t want the day-in-day-out life of a mechanic, I just wanted to know how to fix cars for myself and to have that knowledge in my back pocket. I got back into making music but grew frustrated at the process of writing and recording songs. I felt like I wasn’t able to capture the ideas I had in my head. Like trying to draw on your computer with a mouse. Doable, but it’s not going to come out like you’d hoped.
So these last couple of years I’ve focused more on learning the technical aspect of it, from the initial ideas and lyrics, to the recording and mixing. During that process I put out Bedroom Visionaries, and while writing I happened upon the name Half Shy in an old Thesaurus which felt instantly right. Learning all of that has been fun, I even went as far as to create my own book to solidify a daily writing routine (lyricworkbook.com). All that has been a bit of a tangent from actually making much music though. I should be getting my books in December from the press so I’m really looking forward to getting back into making more music instead of dealing with printing presses, setting up websites, and sourcing ribbon suppliers.
GF: What is the story behind "Monster"? How did the show get in contact with you?
HS: I keep a log of “Song Starters” with neat things I’ve heard in the world, and I would look through it every now and then and notice just how many came from Adventure Time. Eventually I thought well, I have to make a song about this show that just keeps breaking my heart. It was around the time I was nearly done with the first [Adventure Time-inspired] song “In My Element” that I got an email from Bandcamp saying “someone bought your album (Bedroom Visionaries).”
I get maybe one or two of these a month at most so I love to go in and say hi to the person and say thanks, be curious about who they are, [and] what they’re all about. Turns out it was Adam Muto, the executive producer of the show. (I asked and he has no idea how he happened upon my stuff. He guessed that I must have tagged something #adventuretime and he just happened to see it.) So I sent him an email saying, “Hey wow thanks for checking out my tunes. Also... holy crap you’ve made the best show I have ever seen in my life.” [I] played it real cool like. After finishing up writing my second [Adventure Time-inspired] song “Betty” I couldn’t help but fangirl real hard [and I sent him another message saying], “I’m sorry this is probably awkward, but I really love your show and I wrote these songs about it.” He was incredibly kind and shared them with his Twitter Universe, and a while after that I got a random email from him saying basically, “Hey, I’m working on this thing I can’t talk about, would you be interested?” I was like… well you know I’m pretty busy working at a sign shop so I’m gonna have to pass on this once in a lifetime opportunity (J/K. Obviously I fan-girl squealed and said yes immediately).
We chatted a bit about what the project was going to be and the direction. He mentioned there [would be] two Marceline songs in the special, [and he asked if I] would I be interested in giving the love song a try? Trying real hard to suppress my instant imposter syndrome I was like, “Yea, totally I’d be into giving that a shot!” So I read through the story and loved the idea of the dragon mirrored in Marceline, thinking through how they’ve both built up a protective shell, how she grew tough for a reason, but now she can open up and be vulnerable with PB.
From there I wrote the initial demo with the first two verses mostly intact and we went back and forth a few times editing it down into the final version. I recorded the final parts for the show in my little home studio in Seattle.
GS: When you were writing the song, what emotions, thoughts, or ideas were you channeling? Was there any sort of memory of event that you were trying to artistically "catch" or "recreate" with the lyrics or music?
HS: As far as channeling an emotion, generally I’d say just the experience of existing as a human. It can be so hard to open up and be vulnerable. I can remember that feeling even as a young kid—getting really excited about something and having someone completely trash it or look at you like, “Why are you so interested in that? It’s dumb.” [It causes us to grow] a little more weary to share ourselves because we know that hurt and embarrassment. The pain of being misunderstood is something I think a lot of us can relate to. Then having to decide whether to keep sharing those vulnerable parts of yourself or think, “They’re just not going to get it, I’m going to get hurt, so why bother?” and then stop putting yourself out there. You lose a lot with that thick armor though. You might feel protected, but you’re not feeling a whole lot of anything else other than the weight and chafing of it (I had a whole lot of armor-related metaphors that I didn't end up using.).
I struggle with this in songwriting too. I’m not the bolt-of-lightning type. There are pages and pages of cliches, total garbage, bad jokes, and cheesy lines that I have to get through in order to get to something that I am excited to put out there into the world: “Here I did this thing, I know it’s a little (this or that), but I made it... What do you think?” It’s hard to open yourself up to hearing the other end of that question.
I filled about 5 little pocket notebooks just thinking through the story, ideas, and trying to get this song right. I wanted it to feel familiar and honor the past songs of the show ([e.g.,] using the ukulele and referencing a few of the familiar chords from “I’m Just Your Problem”) but also be pretty open and vulnerable and different for [Marceline]. [I wanted to] show that she’s going through some tough emotions but also figuring herself out and growing.
GF: I feel like “Monster” is, at its core, an ode to the “Bubbline” ship. How do you feel about your song being intimately connected to one of the most famous LGBTQ+ relationships in animation? Do you have any general thoughts on Marcy and PB, Bubbline, etc.?
HS: Oh, I’m a total fan girl of Bubbline. The whole story of how Rebecca Sugar and Muto slowly morphed it into this deeper relationship is just great. As a part of the LGBTQ community myself it really means so much to see the representation of characters like yourself portrayed in an intelligent way. Growing up I was too young to fully understand what was going on but I saw Ellen getting cancelled, and [I] heard people around me saying they’d never watch her show again after she came out. That stuff sinks in as a kid and so to have these characters who are not only intelligent, but funny, complex, and unapologetically strong who also happen to be queer is really great. I love that the story here isn’t about their orientation, but that they’re people struggling with how to be open and vulnerable in a relationship.
It feels like something sci-fi and animated shows do so well—to show that ridiculousness of limiting who a person should and shouldn’t love. Marceline is a 1000+ year old half-demon/vampire and PB was born from the Mothergum of an apocalyptic radioactive world, but you’re going to get hung up on them loving each other? It sort of brings it into perspective in a really interesting way.
GF: Do you have any other thoughts about the experience that you'd like to share?
HS: Just how lucky, thankful, and honored I feel to be a part of my favorite show, writing a song for one of my favorite characters. It’s also incredibly cool how the people on the show are so willing to connect and collaborate with their fandom. Everyone [on the production crew] was very open and a real joy to work with.
I’d like to give a huge “Thank you!” to Half Shy for agreeing to participate in this interview; she really was quite amiable! If you’d like to hear more of her music, check out her website and her Bandcamp. You can also follow her on Instragram here and on Twitter here. And of course, here is Half Shy’s awesome video of “Monster”.

"Couchsurfing has allowed me to see the world from a local's perspective. I would've never been able to travel to 21 countries so far and have an authentic experience in each of them if it wasn't for this app. I joined Couchsurfing in 2014 and since then I have made friends with thousands of other travelers.

Dürbünü tutma şeklimizde farklılıklar olsada. Araştırma hevesimiz hiç bitmiyor. Even though there are differences in the way we hold the binoculars.

2020-03-27: The First Investigation [274/283]
"Ghost mom and dad!"
This is from my quest to draw a daily piece of pixel art for every episode of Adventure Time.
I've actually drawn pixel art for this episode before. Way back before I started this project, the r/adventuretime Discord server did a collaborative event where we made an animatic for a section of this episode, which you can watch here. That project was actually what inspired me to start this one.

Day 14
Today was an extremely exhausting day. I had three assignments due today, so I had to hurry and finish all of them today and ended up only having about 3 hours of sleep in total. I really look forward to sleeping early tonight and resting. I also got the chance to eat something today. After thinking over about what I wrote about yesterday and the day before that, I decided to come out of my room and instead of taking a break resting/sleeping, I decided to go eat. Surprisingly, even though sleeping would help make me feel better, taking the time to stop and go out to eat with my family did not take a large amount of my time. I may not do this everyday, however, but I now realize that I always have time to spare to do the things that I could do for my health.
Today I consumed leftover boiled pork stew with mustered greens and fried rice. I don’t think I mention this a lot, but of course I ate normal white rice as well like every day.
This is the fried rice my mom made. I think there was a lot left over from the last few days, so that may be why she made fried rice (she rarely does this). This made me think about the huge amount of rice we have stashed away and how much rice we don’t eat when we forget to take time to eat actual food instead of ramen. It amazes me every time I see how much rice we have, that I don’t really know or remember the price of a pack of rice. I asked my mom and sister, and since we didn’t need to go get rice for awhile, it may cost $30-$50 per large bag.
Lastly, the game and media I consumed today were the same games like always. However, because it was a busy day, I didn’t get to play as much. There’s even a new event, so I might stay up tonight or play it all day tomorrow. I also watched some anime today. Gintama, a very long series about a silver permed hair guy who was a samurai working as a Jack-of-All-Trades along with Shinpachi, a glasses kendo fighter who has a sister and loves a particular idol, and Kagura, an alien who is one of the strongest species crashing at the protagonist’s place with an overbearing father and brother. It is a comedy, so of course it was hilarious. It was nice seeing nostalgic characters and jokes. I also watched the anime movie of the anime Given, which I really looked forward to before I watched it today.
Now, I’m going to get to watch the new episode of The Promised Neverland, whose story is going off the story in the original manga! I am super excited to find out how they’ll progress the anime.
