#although actually this idea might be funnier if Bowser decides to kidnap Mario instead

[mrs-luigi-vargas]

i'm sure this has already been talked about before, but one bowuigi thing that i was thinking about the other morning was the idea of Luigi moving into Bowser's Castle, and then finding himself missing Mario a lot as the weeks went by (because it'd just been the two of them sharing one tiny house for the longest, and they're a bit codependent, tbh)

So what does Bowser do about his bf moping around in the halls about not having seen his brother for a while? Kidnap Princess Peach, of course! Because, as you know, Mario always comes to save her, so once he's taken her back to the castle all they have to do is wait. And as a bonus, Luigi gets to hang out with Peach, too!

Luigi appreciates the gesture, but also: did he really have to mobilize the entire army for this? It would have been far easier to like. Send a letter containing a vaguely polite request. Or a messenger. Or wait till the next Party/sports tournament/kart racing event, even???

It's not like Luigi was doing anything about his homesickness, Bowser retorts, with how he was too busy worrying about inconveniencing his friends with his feelings to take any steps to remedy them. And besides, what else was he supposed to use all these new airships for? A taxi service?

(and anyway, Bowser is 300% willing to mobilize his army a thousand times over if doing so led to a chance for Luigi to be happy. But maaaybe he'll keep that sentiment to himself for now. Save it for when he could fully appreciate Luigi blushing hard enough to rival the carpet's crimson tones.)
