Holy fuck

Deadpool and Wolverine!

Do you think all 4 of Butch Hartman's shows (The Fairly OddParents!, Danny Phantom, T.U.F.F. Puppy, and Bunsen Is A Beast) all take place in the same universe?

Depends on my mood.We saw in “Opportunity” that FOP, DP, and BIaB do seem to be canon in the Prompts to some degree. Basically, I mash the Hartman shows together (excluding “T.U.F.F. Puppy”, which falls under the genre of alternate Earth rather than contemporary fantasy and therefore doesn’t fit), but I make no attempt to explain any inconsistencies, like why godkids don’t solve Ghost-related problems by wishing.

Sometimes I lean more towards what we saw in “Power Hour” with Jimmy and Timmy existing in separate universes that are still very similar. The Hartman universes could be portrayed like that, but due to similar art styles, the transition between worlds is simple. There’s an upcoming Prompt called “Saving Grace” that lightly brushes this topic where Nega-Timmy and Croissant Head Evil Jimmy bump into each other on Unwish Island after Evil Jimmy pulled a universe jump to escape the collapse of his world in “The Trouble With Clones”. Oh, those two. It’s pretty clear who wears the lab coat in that relationship.

Sometimes I imagine there’s just an FOP universe where Fairies are the main supernatural force and there are no Ghosts or Beasts at all, and vis versa. Different universes. That explains the “Why don’t godkids interfere with Ghosts?” and “Why can humans know about Beasts but not Fairies?” questions, but it’s less fun.

Whether the shows exist together or not is one of those things I play with and vary sometimes, like how sometimes I treat Foop’s dissociative identity disorder more seriously (The other personality is “asleep” when the other is out and loses awareness of the world) and sometimes I treat it closer to what we see in show canon (They’re both aware of the world and talk to each other). The whole concept is just kinda… malleable that way. Think of it like I’m cameoing other shows rather than 100% confirming they exist together in full.

But, one of the reasons I fell in love with the Pixies is because they canonically exist and make all my dreams of crossovers and politics possible. If they weren’t here, then I just would have invented my own company in the FOP world that manages all the paperwork that comes along with jumping universes.

For the purposes of my fanfics, it’s safe to say that BIaB and FOP both exist in the same universe in my works without much disruption. “Gravity Falls” and “Star vs. The Forces of Evil” do too. So does “ChalkZone”… I’ve got a bunch of CZ pieces I’d like to finish and post. Cramming DP canon in there is always trickiest, but since it doesn’t come up much, it’s not really a problem.

As it stands right now, the “official, long-term” canon of my works is, “many cartoon ‘verses coexist in the same universe, but any inconsistencies are smudged over so that things that don’t line up in one universe are just treated as rumors instead of hard fact.” Jimmy Neutron and aliens? Weirdmageddon? Meh.

Rudy Tabootie is confirmed to attend Chester A. Arthur Middle School, which if I remember correctly is also the school Charles Darwin Middle played football against in one of the earliest “Gym Partner” episodes, so if I were to write fanfics about them, it’s the same school. I was gonna draw a bunch of cartoon boys engaged in their respective sports a long time ago (Timmy = soccer, Mikey = hockey, Adam = football, Danny = the Ravens mascot probably or maybe some Ghost sport), and Rudy made posters and banners and cheered for everyone. I just didn’t get around to doing so.

Also, Linzie and I made it a thing that Timmy and Rudy are pen pals as a joke and then it just kind of stuck.

FOP is a show in the Total Drama universe and Total Drama is a show in the FOP universe, as we have previously seen in “LARP Around the Clock Tonight” and “Back In Action” I need to finish “Lions” it’s over a hundred pages long in my files but I got distracted by Fairies goshdangit. It’s actually a running joke in my works that Topher is a massive FOP nerd and he keeps making pixie references. And, you may remember that Sanderson was allegedly born on Hole 10 of a certain golf course as we saw in “Baby, You’re a Rich Man”. Hole 10 of the course where Leonard, Tammy, and Topher were playing LARP mini-golf in “The Lyin’, The Rich, and the Warzone” looks identical to it. So just. Cameos.

… “Lyin’ Queen” hasn’t been going anywhere, so maybe I’ll just keep it on hiatus and finish “Beatin’ Path” and “Lions Under Palm Trees” instead, because honestly writing a protagonist who is not a canon compulsive liar would be swell. And the first chapter of “Beatin’ Path” kinda needs to be alllll redone because it makes me cringe.

I love Topher. The monster. Literally the smoothest straight-up manipulator to ever grace the cartoon world I still can’t believe he’s canon he’s amazing.

Oh my gosh, I need to get back to “Lions” very badly I just remembered how good it gets. Leonard is problematic and savage and delusional. Tammy is precious. Topher is a boss. The Adversity Twins are there and they’re Milo Murphy’s cousins because of course they are. Dwayne Junior is going through cartoon physics puberty. Leonard and Topher getting into a huge fight about metal being a weakness for fairies and Topher threatening to LARP a Mary Sue if Leonard doesn’t let him be a fairy blacksmith. Leonard thinking Tom and Jen are avatars for their creators. Leonard convinced that Ezekiel who went feral during Season 3 is his familiar. TOPHER! I… I miss my other children a lot!

I’m sorry. That wasn’t your question. Nostalgia.

Oh. Also, Showtown and Skatoony are still 100% a thing and that Fourth Wall religion from my TD works exists in every universe I write. You can’t stop me.

So that’s that. There’s also Diderot’s Court AU if you wanna take that messy plunge, but no one ever does. Which is a goshdarn shame, because I wrote some lovely scenes of Amanda Killman and Lincoln Loud bickering while Bruno the Kid tries to force a compromise out of them as he drags them up to the top of the Fourth Wall, but I guess those are just for me now. Ah, well.
