im an arrogant piece of shit and also a dyke but honest to god question: what good could fucking come from being friends with a guy who has feels for you that you dont want. girl abort that thang
#mypost#yes like all my recent posts this too is about twilight#everything bad about jake as a character is smeyers fault of course. he is fiction. so its not jake bashing at all#just like. WHAT was bella expecting staying friends with a dude who asks 'do it jiggle' 4 times a day#especially since she was NOT having any luck moving on from edward at fucking all?#''edward understand please hes my only friend'' girl im so sorry......he isnt your friend..........#shes starved of affection of course its an established part of bella and it needs to be Really strong to satisfy her#therefore the platonic affections of jessica angela or even thr romantic attention of mike or eric or tyler doesnt help#shes only comforted by jake BECAUSE hes in live with her but thats so fuckedd uuuuuupp#girl thats so fucked up and selfish and stupid in so mqny ways. she absolutely refuses friendship of her classmates#from one guy in love with her to another. girl please!!!!! let some girl solidarity in!!!#its cruel to jake and disrespectful to herself. its ABSOLUTELY cruel to edward as it continues after his return#its all so stupiddddd#i need a twilight oc who is only there to play therapist to bella and edward from time to time

Have you seen the 2017 My Little Pony Movie? If so, do you everyone was acting OOC in the movie? I've been seeing so many people say this. Like Rainbow Dash doing a Sonic Rainboom while in the midst of showing off to those pirates didn't really seem out of character for her, but that's my opinion.
Honestly i dont think its a matter of being out of character, btu rather character reduction. Every girl of the mane 6 winds up being reduced to the most core components of their character, be it catchphrases or just a basic way of acting. rainbow is cocky, pinkie is loud, rarity is vain, AJ is pragmatic and somehow, Fluttershy basically only ever whimpers in the movie. the camera turns to her and shes whimpering, lmao. That's all in character, completely. its just not creative or interesting or expressive. Pinkie being used as a distraction because she's loud and loves parties is almost a meta relationship with this, Twilight knows.
I think what also doesnt help the movie is how pointless of a roadtrip journey the movie is? Like. its a movie about going from point A to point B mindlessly, but there's no real defined purpose. The maggufin they find is just an orb that makes you into a water pony, why did twilight thing that was a tool that could be used against the storm king? Who fuckin knows. the hippogriffs dont help, its all won n the end due to teamwork. its funny that they in the end assault the castle by just... going there with the friends they made along the way.
BUT LIKE BITCH YOU ALREADY HAD FRIENDS. IN PONYVILLE AND BEYOND EVEN.LIKE DOZENS OF FRIENDS THAT WOULD GLADLY HELP Where's starlight and trixie during the fall of equestria?! Having gay sex?! smh
I also am not fond of how many bipedal characters are added in here, the ponies stand out so much in a world made for creatures with hands, and even the comics dont add this many. it feels weird bc they had so many species to pick from, from changelings, yaks, griffons, etc etc, and they just made a bunch of furry people that stand and slapped them in the movie. the hoppogriffs were a nice addition even if they dont do nothin. Maybe they realised a quadrupedal world with hands is just impractical lmao
Anyways I have a lot to critique about the movie but I feel like it just all bogs down to it being like... Kind of empty to me. Devoid of an usual flair or artistic vision some episodes and specials seem to have. Characters are there to do what they usually do, the princesses are kicked out of the way so twilight and her friend scan save the day, its pretty formulaic. Maybe I'm spoiled by equestria girls and how each movie has a diffrent and awesome vibe and every character has smth to do in it lmao.
Anyways tempest is cool but she stands out like a sore thumb and her not being in FIM or EQG is just sad. Also the comics do her justice and give her a fucking girlfriend, one of her childhood friends, its really damn sweet.

arcana twilights character interactions r so good........ even in rly minor inconsequential interactions like the group chats the dynamics never feel forced and when they have conflicts in the story it feels like such a natural extension of their personalities+opinions
a good example is when sirius enters his villain era and everyones jumping to go "well hes evil we gotta stop him" and pollux is the one to stop and wonder why hes doing it: hes one of the youngest sorcerers in the guide committee except probably vega? meaning he doesnt have the "natural order" of things quite ingrained in him yet so hes the most open minded, and in turn sirius is actually rly friendly with him in his weird cunt way
meanwhile alpheratz (who sirius HATES because he sees through his shit, and he hates sirius in turn) and spica (the one whos most serious about being a sorcerer and everything that comes with it) are the most openly hostile to him, along with vega who just really hates him fucking with summoner
arcturus is the one least personally invested in the whole thing, mostly just being against sirius on the basis of "dude youre destroying our line of defense against void monsters (also hurting my friend)"
#arcana twilight#artw#아르트와#arcana twilight sirius#arcana twilight pollux#arcana twilight arcturus#arcana twilight vega#arcana twilight alpheratz#arcana twilight spica#sirius#pollux#arcturus#vega#alpheratz#spica#chevposting#yeah this blog is gonna be writing analysis too#i think about this game too much for it not to be

why princess celestia is a twist villain. a mid-season 1 my little pony conspiracy theory
so like im midway through season 1 of mlp:fim and barely remember a fucking thing. but im calling it. PRINCESS CELESTIA IS A BITCH AND IS A TWIST VILLAIN. now you may be wondering. hedgie; what an amazing theory. you are truly our god emperor for all time. care to elaborate? of course babycakes. so Princess Celestia is brought up as this perfect angelic flawless princess. shes as perfect as they come. well, i believe everyone is just a bit fucked up. i dont think shes as perfect as she wants us to believe she is. i think she has some skeletons in her closet and is plotting something terrible. i believe the true reason she sent Twilight to ponyvile isnt to form friendship, but rather to get insider information on the main ponies so that if they ever got too close to finding the truth, she could swiftly take them down. I believe she ran some calculations and deduced that the biggest threats to her secret operations were Rainbow Dash for her blistering speed. AppleJack for her brute strength. Rarity for her smarts and Fluttershy for her animal friends which could prove a big threat. So who else is better to get insider information on their skillsets and more importantly their weaknesses and flaws than the student that begs and lives to please her. Twilight Sparkle. she knew that twilight would follow through no matter what, insisting that she send letters on her "friendship" updates. When in actuality, she is catalouging EVERYTHING, learning as much as she can to prepare counterattacks for if they ever got too close to finding the truth and tried to fight back. We all know the tale of the sisters. Celestia controlled the day, Luna the night. Luna got angry and tried to cast the world into eternal shadow and Celestia stopped her by sealing her away in the moon. But how can we trust that? Whos to say thats the true story? What if Celestia wrote that version to portray herself as the hero and Luna the villain. What if Luna discovered Celestias true plans and tried to stop her but was cast away and Celestia told everyone a false story to build trust, grooming the citizens of Equestria to become her undying mob that will follow her no matter what. And she could easily do the same for if the Mane Six ever attempted to put a stop to her. After all, Equestria worships the very ground she trots on. She could make the entire kingdom turn on the Mane Six in an instant if she felt they got a bit too close to stopping her. Plus, nobody would ever suspect Celestia of doing ANY misdeed. After all, shes perfect. Shes flawless. Doesnt have a single ray of dark in her heart. But people. doesnt she seem TOO perfect? TOO flawless? She spent her whole life building up this perfect image of herself. A kind, peaceful ruler who protects everyone. And this is by design so that when her plan is complete, whatever that may be, it will be far too late to do anything because nobody would have ever suspected her. And thanks to Twilight sending letters to her every day, giving updates on her friendships with the other ponies, telling detailed stories on their weak moments and their triumphs, she has all the information and data she needs to plan a counterattack on the only six ponies who could ever be a threat to her goals. anyway yeah thats my theory, if any of you spoil me ill gut you like a fish.

sigh how do you write lore like,, i want my little guys to smooch n stuff but !! why do they smooch !! how did they get to a point where theyre smoochin !!
all i have for caine rn is just like childhood stuff but its not even really all thought out tbh,,
warning for bad writing probably because idk how to write seriously
the first idea i ever really had for caine was that he had two mommas one was pop and the other was rock and they were soooo in love or something but it was like wayy before pop trolls knew anything about the other genres,, i dont really know much about them i do have a design for them but theyre not really finished…
(probably gonna remove the star thing from pop mom causee reasons later on in lore,,these are kinda really old so i dunnoooo)
they eventually had an egg but they were SUPER young like,, 18-19 so they didnt really think they were ready for a kid yet so uhhh
‼️🔥TROLL ORPHANAGE 🔥‼️
and then pop mom runs off with rock mom or something blah blah and caines left in the orphanage. he spends about three months in there but then gets adopted by TWO OTHER MOMS and oh wowee he has a lil sister now :]] !! her names ebby and shes soo silly and little.
and his new parents’ names are eva and atmos theyre losers ones an astronomy nerd and the other is an instrument nerd
(im taking this personality stuff from a chart thing my epic partner made while we were discussing lore go follow them noww theyre soooo cool
atmos is an introverted lil hermit who studies stars and astrology stuff ohh shes so cute <33 but also has anger issues unfortunately,, my partner used twilight sparkle as a comparison to her HEHA becauseee shes a lil nerrrd <333
eva is not as much as an introvert but still prefers not talking to people. shes quiet and doesnt like big crowded areas,, oh !! and she makes instruments !! which is kind of a reason shes not fully an introvert since she has to actually talk to people sometimes for her job 😭 very much a workaholic, but also just a chill troll to be around..
look at this awesome art !! wow !! my awesome swag partner made it !!! go follow them now !!!!
fast forwarding a lil to when caine is around 6 and his parents are debating whether or not to send their kids to public school,, because they prefer homeschooling BUT also they knew that mayybe their kids should be getting social interaction from other trolls..so they sent caine first as like a test drive for whether or not public school would be good before sending lil ebby😭
guhh i dont remember that much but once they see that caine doesnt hate it they decide ebby can go too,,
and everyone LOVES ebby shes so very nice and sweet and caines just also kinda there i guess HEHA but he doesnt really mind tbh
uhh poppy tries to be friends with caine obviously cause its poppy
MY MEMORY IS BECOMING FOGGY HERE I DONT REMEMBER EVERYTHING OKAY but uhhh creek doesnt really like caine for SOME reason i think it was because caine didnt really have any interest in being friends with him or something and hes like GUH,,BUT EVERYONE LIKES ME >:(( WHY DONT YOU WANNA BE FRIENDS WITH ME >:(((
so hes just kinda annoyed at him now 😭😭
this doesnt really have anything to do with the lore but !! look !! itty bitty caine !! isnt he a cutie patootie !!!
skipping to age 8 theres a lil TALENT SHOW WOOAH !!!!! this part is basically just to show caines interest in guitars and stuff (like fixing them ig)
poppy was gonna play ukulele for the talent show but !! oh no !!! her ukulele coincidentally breaks right before the show !!! i think !!! i dont remember okay + its 2:32 am
poppys all sad but then she runs to caine basically begging him to fix it for her pretty pretty please because hes literally the only one she knows who can fix this stuff
caine does because hes just suchh a lil sweetheart and all the other lil kiddies are like ooouuh :0 and in the process he ends up winning the talent show because !! wow he fixed it guys !! and it was also so nice of him wow !!!
but unfortunatelyyy creek didnt get to do his lil talent thingy so this begins the life-long one-sided feud with caine,, creek will be a petty little brat to caine for the next few years
tiny little things that happened through his life->
- kinda going back in time but when he was little atmos would take him to go stargaze and let him look through her telescope while she ranted about zodiacs or star signs or smthn,, she kinda stopped doing that though once ebby was old enough for atmos to take her with her instead :(((
- arounddd age 10 probably he actually learns how to PLAY guitar from his mom eva instead of just fixing them. shed also let caine watch her work on instruments as long as he had his lil safety welding helmet ^^
- age 16 wowee !! eva makes him his own guitar aww <33 hes sooo in love with it !! id show you but i havent drawn it !! but i swear its cool !! promise !!!
so hes 18 now and he moves out of troll village into the forest so he could “find himself” or some corny stuff idk man ITS 3 AM OH MY GOD
sometimes he visits pop village but rarely,, like maybeee 2-3 times a year ??
SIX WHOLE YEARS LATER he gets an invite from poppy at his door (which he often gets since poppy somehow found out where he lived and regularly sends a bug to deliver invites to him..) and hes lke “yk what its been a while ig i could go visit them” and so he makes his way back to pop village only OH MY GOD !! BERGEN ATTACK NOO !!! the ONE TIME he decides to visit them and he gets kidnapped by chef,, oh noes,,
some beautiful illustrations from my wife !! wowza !!! go follow them right now !!!!
but yea just trolls 1 with caine. basicallyyy…
after that whole thang poppys like “caine im soso sorry about all this <:[“ but caines like “dont apologize you literally didnt do anything ??”
ummm blah blah blah he becomes buddies with branch at some point after trolls 1
and thats all i have okay no creek caine yaoi yet causeee im not sure how itd work yet but..it will work…eventually…squints
sorry this was so shit to read 🙏

my xiao imagines (scenarios ig also probably modern
im so tired today i have 2 things due today and im in hell, but i should write something since i post every 2-3 days lmao
chase atlantic x xiao = happy sho,,, imagine just relaxing with xiao on a bed, scrolling through social media with chase atlantic playing in the background. with the sun slowly getting ready to set like yayayaydnjvhnjebekjvkjdfkjsadkjsvdkjsdkvjsdv
imagine this, rainy outside with very slight and quiet thunder booming and sitting with xiao drinking hot drinks while playing video games together. personally, i rlly like matcha when it's rainy i think that xiao might like cough syrup specifically orange flavour (i tried almond tofu and it tasted like medicine :((( ) but fr he might drink peppermint tea with a bit of honey
you two go to a park for a picnic or just a walk but xiao has allergies and hayfever (a friend gave me this imagine)
imagine you and xiao both do an extension class which unfortunately runs outside of school hours so he waits for you outside the school library for the class to start as you get out your school stuff. you told xiao to go in first because its so cold outside but he insists on staying outside to wait for you
xiao obv always acts like he doesnt care but its always the small things that clearly show that he does care afterall. the small litte smiles or shuffles he does when he sees you or the way his hand tighens around yours slightly,, after having a huge debate with yourself whether he even liked you at all, after confronting him, he had to repeat himself over and over that he loves you but finds it hard to show it
(a while ago i was going to write a xiao x reader thing but its twilight au and xiao is edward cullen but thats so 2010)
xiao getting a gift for you, he's not the type to buy flat out expensive gifts. he does enjoy making handmade things though, handmade cards, handmade gifts etc (im a fan of homemade things,, it just has so much thought put into them)
he probably did coaching/tutoring or whatever its called (asian kids will get it) maybe kumon? idk how kumon works i have to assume its like what i did as a kid.
gonna turn the one above into an actual imagine now lmao,,, so xiao would be the type to continue doing it into high school bc he's just incredibly smart,,,,,,, thats how he does like every single extension class and a ton of the harder classes.
imagine customer xiao (yes this again) who tried to give you his number but he failed so many times that he came in 3 times in the week just to try again in dropping the slip of paper into your pocket or tip jar or on the empty plate with the crumbs of the pastry he ordered.
#genshin xiao#xiao headcanons#xiao x reader#genshin headcanons#genshin x reader#xiao brainrot#modern au xiao#xiao fluff#genshin fluff#genshin impact imagines#genshin x you#genshin impact x you#genshin brainrot#genshin impact#sho xiao dumps

Was able to create these redesigns while we had nothin to do in classes. Im tryin to slowly make myself fall in love with art again and my hyperfixation on mlp redesigns are helpin me do that >:'] ...and oh boi this is gon be a long post feel free to read my rewrites ehe
I had so much fun through the whole process for this one! (Tbh the mane 5 becomin more like semi ocs now) For my version, Pipp is more of an actress/performer who does multiple side gigs and hobbies. Shes basically the city's "angelic sweet girl" since shes known for playing a soft and whimsical persona, often doing her iconic closed in ears and faded voice to give a more innocent look for the public. Her attitude is no different in private but she forces herself to stay too positive even when shes in need of relieving some strong emotions. Im not a fan of Pipp being a stereotypical phone addict in the show so I instead headcannoned her as neurodivergent and needing a distraction everytime or else she gets all panicky when shes doesnt have anything to do, she tends to overshare info, forgets to rest, known to take other's spotlight away and dissociate a lot (especially when reading fan comments) Shes disabled and uses formed cloud wings designed by her sister.
As for her redesign, I made her mane to be more stylish as a way to show her expertise on hairstylin. Her tail and tiara is rose shaped to go with her last name "Petals". And her colour pallete is brownish purple and powdered pink to give her character a more softer feel.
Lmaoo I have a lot to say- Anyways heres an old piece i made for zipp Im still confused how to draw her hair patterns...
In my ver. Zipp is well known for bein hardworkin and intelligent. Shes not ready to be queen and often "slacks off" with her main royal duties but she organizes and fixes problems happening outside the castle by talking to the staffs. Shes extremely curious and learns a lot of random detailed infos since she was young which ended up makin her become great at managing situations happening in and out the city, which is why her mother is so persistent on makin her the next queen. Zipp is a solutionist and researcher but she only focuses on what catches her interest before goin on the to next. (Ngl all the mane 5 are neurodivergent to me) Because of how determined she is on those interest, shes made several secret places to avoid just doin main work. Her fav studies are chemistry, physics, cosmology, ecology and aeronautics. Shes mysterious to the public eye but her friends know that shes just a bundle of hyperactive mess once she starts discovering smth new. I assume og Zipp is secretly non-binary coded but for my version, shes a transmare and everypony already knows and accepts it.
I gave her a more light pink and blue green mane colour. Her bangs are like sherlock holmes' as to pay homage for zipp bein a detective in the series along with some side braids. I also gave her twilight freckles and tired,soft looking eyes (not only cuz shes a workaholic like Pipp but its also cuz of genetics)
Aight, I was never really a fan for givin the mane cast just one element and the fact that G5 series havent showed any mentions of it just made it seem unimportant. Soo I instead gave them multiple elements that the mane 5 will develop as their journey goes on. Pipp will be the element of Strength, Purity, Assurance, Control, Pride, Value, etc. While Zipp is the element of Curiosity, Determination, Potential, Wonderment, Eagerness, Persistence, etc. (I imagine if twilight would have ever come back from the dead she would most likely write down what their elements would be as she observes the mane 5)
#mlp gen 5#my little pony#mlp redesign#mlp art#artist on tumblr#mlp rewrite#redesigns#rewrite#art#I dont even like G5 much but damn I cant stop hyperfixatin on what the potential could have been#next time u will see me writin a bible-#school be damned my love for art is slowly comin back#digital art

Who were your favorite characters from G3/G4 mlp and why?
G3:
Wisteria - i love a good garden horse who's also a big socialist and hates the idea of being royalty cos she misses being with her friends
Minty - the goofiest lovable horse in the entire franchise that always delivered G3's most iconic moments (you broke santa? scene comes to mind) and its offensive she was never brought back for G4
Pinkie Pie - I honestly prefer this version over G4 Pinkie, cos seeing a level-headed, snarky yet still upbeat Pinkie, its a lot more fun and interesting to see than a wacky, emotionally unstable mess that is G4 Pinkie
Kimono - I really wish she was in G3 a lot more, cos the idea of a village hermit pony (not because she hates everyone but because shes very introverted) who occasionly helps the ponies with problems or give advice or just be someone to confide in is a great idea
Lily Lightly - her special about learning to love your weird wonderful self is such an important, sweet lesson cos even grown ass adults struggle to embrace being cringe. And her horn glowing makes her passion for lights that much more interesting cos its like she's sharing her love of lights to make everyone glow like she does. What a pioneer, she invented electric lights for these horses
Rarity - I love how much of a rambunctious little goober Rarity is, especially for a princess in training. Like she doesnt care that she never fell off a waterfall, she immediately wants to do it again. She loves to rollerskate, play around in the mud and wants to play with a caterpillar rather than study, like a real kid would do. But she does actually take her princess lessons seriously and grows into a more responsible person, without losing her fun-loving self.
Scootaloo - out of all the G3 ponies, Scoots stands out for being a little ankle biter but has a good heart. She can be selfish, impulsive and stubborn, again G3 really knows how to write kid characters
Sweetie Belle - the epitome of no thoughts, head empty and I love her for it. She's so baby and happy, that telling a white lie is a foreign concept to her
Cheerilee - I like her more neurotic and shy version than her teacher counterpart in G4, I also like that her dynamic with Scootaloo isnt toxic, unlike a lot of sibling relationships in media, the two are not only similar in age but also share the same stubbornness, but the two are quick to apologise to each other and its clear they still love each other, despite their differences.
Rainbow Dash - I LOVE DIVA DASH SO MUCH. WHY THE FUCK DID BRONIES COMPLAIN ABOUT HER OVER THE YEARS? SHE'S HILARIOUS?!
G4:
Twilight Sparkle - as much as I hate how much she became a vector for the writers spewing friendship, I love how Twilight became a great protagonist growing from an asocial student to the princess of friendship, being the straight mare to everyone's antics. Although her perfectionism and fanaticism have become flanderised over the years
Fluttershy - talk about a glow up, she went from an insufferable uwu wallflower to an introverted, yet snarky and self-confident pony who has retained all her lessons of self-assertion and yet still being the sweet, shy horse we all know. Also shy quiet characters having dry wit and has calm indignation when something ticks them off is just peak character writing
Rarity - this horse made me love ultra feminine characters, i remember hating Rarity when I started watching cos I knew she would be just the stereotypical diva bitch character that reminded me of all the girls i had to deal with in school at the time (me having insecurities about my femininty didnt help), but damn i couldnt be more wrong, cos she's a wonderfully sassy yet kind and passionate character. Her love of fashion and creating is infectious and while her friends are wildly different to her, she tries her best to make something she knows they will all like and isnt afraid to get her hooves dirty to help others
Discord - the most uniquely designed and characterised character. As someone who starts off a chaotically evil villain to a chaotic good reformed ally cos the shy horse reached out to him, its no surprise he became so popular in both the show and fandom. And to this day, his redemption is the most well-executed example ive seen cos of how tentative it was. I love how incredibly devoted he is to Fluttershy and will kill anyone who harms her. I just wish he had more scenes with the rest of the mane 6, I would've loved more Pinkie and Discord pulling pranks together.
Maud Pie - you will never find another pony in the entirety of MLP like Maud. Stoic, blunt and very literal in her choice of words, expressionless yet becomes instantly emotional and caring when her loved ones are hurt or in danger. Like whoever wrote her, I love you cos she's the most refreshing character ive seen. I love characters who look like eternally on autopilot yet will spring into action like a bat out of hell if the people they love are hurt.
Sunset Shimmer - The fact Sunset Shimmer didnt become a protagonist in her own right in Equestria Girls cos WE HAVE TO HAVE A TWILIGHT in every MLP G4 universe is a crying shame. She was saved from being a boring high school girl villain obsessed with power and thats it to a strong-willed, passionate, devoted friend who will fight tooth and nail to make her friends happy. I love how EQG reforms a bully without forcing Sunset to lose her edge and fiery temper cos that was always the biggest problem kids shows fall into when redeeming bullies. That scene were Sunset yells at Sci-Twi for unintentionally causing a lot of damage to Canterlot High and putting her friends in danger was palpable.
Princess Cadance - one of the most level headed characters in the show and honestly does a much better job at being a mentor to Twilight than Celestia. Also her relationship with Shining Armor is peak power couple. I love how despite being more powerful than he is, Cadance never treats him as someone beneath her. She's just great and I hate teenage me for calling her a bland Barbie horse.
Trixie - Trixie is the prime example of designated bitch cos the show tries desperately hard to make her look like a villain when all she did was put on a magic show and boast about her magic. Even when she gets redeemed, she was treated with more scorn and derision than DISCORD (who did a lot worse than Trixie) and becomes friends with a pony who one time SOLD HER HOUSE WITHOUT HER PERMISSION TO A RANDO JUST BECAUSE THEY HAD AN ARGUMENT THAT THE WAGON WAS TOO SMALL FOR BOTH OF THEM TO SLEEP IN. JESUS this show treated her like shit. its a damn shame cos Trixie's self-confidence and sarcasm made her a delight and underneath all her theatrics, she really does care for people and that wouldve been interesting to discuss if the show didnt constantly harp on her being arrogant COS HOW DARE SHE
Spike - Ive really grown to like Spike looking back, while Twilight has become more erractic and insane as time went on, Spike has become the straight man. I love how unphased he is about liking traditionally girly things and is comfortable with being a dragon who likes pony things. Of course bronies lambasted him for being selfish and mean or impulsive at times, cos how dare a kid character acts like a kid. I also like how overly excited he is about wanting to help others, from Twilight to Applejack to Rarity. I just really wish the writers dropped the whole crush he had on Rarity, cos the show got REALLY WEIRD with it.
Sunburst - what a delightfully nerdy horse. From hyperfixating on ancient pony lore and artifacts to being precise about a right answer percentage in a town trivia contest, he's hilarious and way too good of a character to be saddled with Starlight Glimmer of all people. He shouldve been Trixie's best friend if we're being honest.
Sorry for late reply!

Looking for new content? Here's a list of CCs I like while I procrastinate cleaning my room
I will go from most popular to least and maybe you'll find something you are interested in. Kinda long so I added read more.
DougDoug - needs no introduction as he is very popular, I recently started watching his videos because a student vouched for him and while I can see why kids will like his challenge videos, I also find his content very entertaining. Especially while you eat dinner. Big fan of his zelda content. Parkzer is an interesting side character.
Squeex - PLEASE. If you want to get into Squeex start with his beating every mario kart game video. It's a good introduction and you can go from there. Please.
Linkus7 - My favorite Zelda runner as of late, I consider him a part of a triangle consisting of PointCrow, Smallant, and him. Though, he is lesser known within the greater sphere of twitch. His randomizers are the most fun in my opinion. I try to save his recent vods when I can, as he doesnt save them anymore.
Sambucha - STOP he makes like lowkey mindless kids content videos but I'm like obsessed with him for some reason. One of my students forced me to watch his "beating the easiest world records" video and I was immediately enthralled. He makes content thats easy to listen to while you draw. But I'm sure you can do other things with it on in the background.
Sturniolo Triplets - Content that is popular with teen girls, but I'm still obsessed for some reason. I just love people who have a good relationship just hang out together. Podcast vibes. Nick is the funniest. CONS: Chris is a queerbaiter at heart, though he is in a youtube group with his brothers. Hmm. Cant be doing that here.
Stephanie Soo - Mukbang true crime girl. I loved her video in high school and I would always put on her videos while I was in painting II - III or drawing. Too bad I cant watch her anymore because too much true crime makes me too paranoid. If you like true crime shes an easy watch, keeps thing friendly and accessible. I love her and her husbands relationship.
Trin Lovell - Reviews movies and by far my favorite movie watcher on youtube. Her editing is really funny and quippy. She got popular from watching best and worse riverdale and glee episodes (shes a big glee fan). my favorite videos from her are where hands touch and skinamarink. I have gained many new phrases from her.
StephenPlays - Smaller youtuber whos been in the game for like fifteen years. He is very chill and does letsplays with his friends and wife. I recommend his twilight princess and mario kart play throughs (featuring his wife Mal).
Any Austin - one of my fav youtubers ever and I've been a fan of him for 11 years now. He basically shaped my humor as a kid and I recommend his eggbusters series to get started. He had a letsplay channel called Two People Playing Games with his friend Aysha that sadly disbanded as they became too busy in their lives to keep up with it. Austin has done a lot of content over the years and recently is getting big for is "calculating the unemployment level of ___" keep this on the DL but if you ever want any privated videos I know a guy.
The Fisher - MAGNET FISHING
People you may have heard of, but made never checked out! My vouch:
Drew Gooden - Obviously. Funniest commentary youtuber. If you haven't watched him what are you doing?
Jenny Nicholson - I got into beef with her in 2019 (i think) when everyone was making fun of her for being a Reylo and she blocked me. I still like her commentary videos. Especially for background noise. My acc she blocked me on was suspended.
Johnny's Communication Center -
Sinjin Drowning - theyre snakes and lowkey the azealia banks of I guess roblox content bc thats all they do anymore but I'll be damned if I'm not CACKLING at them. They have a trail of destroyed friendships as long as the empire state building behind them.

im back from my 2 day absence and to say sorry heres some mlp headcanons
rarity and applejack are asexual lovers (thank you @ethaaan22 for this) and rarity watches while applejack bucks her apples and she swoons over applejacks ability and strength (applejack carries her home when she’s sad)
trixie and starlight glimmer are sapphic HEAVY ROMANTIC asexual lovers and trixie preforms tricks for starlight and starlight watches in awe and claps for her
pinkie pie has a crush on applejack but the feelings are not reciprocated but she’s still happy for them so she still throws parties for their anniversaries and she’s also omniromantic asexual
twilight is biromantic asexual and is happily single but admires the beauty of other ponies
shining armor straight but accepts his sister and loves her with all his heart
fluttershy is tfem and aroace, she doesnt really like anybody that way and prefers spending time with her critter friends instead.
rainbow dash is a tmasc gay and educates others on things like therianthropy and otherhearted people because xe ximself is an otherhearted person and his otherheartype is a german shepherd and a red fox, cause dash is loyal and playful and experiences those behaviours in a way different from therianthropy. xe also has a cat copinglink and use he/xe/dash pronouns
i didnt really get into rarity and applejack headcanons so
rarity lesbian asexual, makes dresses for applejack
applejack is also a lesbian asexual who makes pies and apple relates sweets for rarity to eat while she works and she also helps rarity by modeling her dresses for her
spike is like 5 so he’s a straight ally :3
i came up with these in a discord server with my friendys

what if my g5 headcanons that will ultimately influence the story progression in my "rewrite" of mym?
under cut ofc because bitch we really get into it!!! (aka, long post)
i am one autistic bitch who feels let down my g5 in some aspects but mostly in a sense that it's just... missing some things!
disclaimer? i realy like g5. i come back to watch mym and tyt and the movie because it brings me joy and i like seeing the characters do things!
HOWEVER i personally feel like the story and writing is a bit... lack luster? im not sure if its because we're just missing so much information that's going to be explained later, or if the writers just... are struggling to piece together this lowkey mess of a situation our favs are in!
i just want to make sense of it all, and im a storyteller not a theorist so im not doing that theory stuff :) im just going to spew headcanons and be happy abt what i think could be implied by the writers that we dont actually get expansion on
[4/28/2024 edit] i drafted this way back in december '23 or jan '24 so some of these might seem "duh ofc! Thats canon!" but yeah, i just had it in the drafts for a loonngg time
now another disclaimer uhm,... when i "rewrite" mym im... not exactly going to remove key details? i think my intent is to include some things into each chapter that will make it a bit more digestible to all demographics? i like the sillies, i like the serious, and mym hits some really strong points that i think were executed perfectly! there are some things that are just spot on!
but again i just think mym is missing some elements and my headcanons are a result of that (obv bc thats what a headcanon is omg).
only big different in my rewrite will be opaline because her character is just... i dont know but i dont enjoy her. and i love villains. i am a villain enjoyer, and as many others have pointed out, she just randmly decides to be evil for the sake of being evil which sometimes i get it but before then it seemed like more than that? so im going to stick to "its more than that" and she has an actual solid goal in mind :)
this is more of an autistic revelation turned writing exercise so YAY let's see how this goes!
HEADCANON TIME!
i love sunny!! since the movie she's been such a cutie and one of my favorites! in tyt and mym however, they have a habit of watering down her character to "naive protag who has flimsy and unbased morals" and that doesnt really sit right with me? sooooo headcanons for sunny? (and some others but mainly ones that focus on sunny)
Sunny likes history as a way to connect with her dad, and she collects things she thinks he might have liked, and continues his research partially because of her own ideals of friendship and spreading it, but also because part of her thinks she has to carry on his legacy
Sunny and Zipp have a "likeminded, different methods" leader rivalry
Sunny and Pipp love to spa day together! They're also late risers, and love healthy meals and afternoon strolls
Sunny lets Pipp style her mane and tail ALL the time for inspiration because she likes the pampering a little and bc she wants to help Pipp
Sunny does her best to assist her friends with their jobs from time to time. Mostly because of her admiration of Twilight and her idea of friendship meaning spending time doing things your friends love to do
Sunny invites them to help her make new smoothie ideas too
Sometimes Sunny spends time in the observatory, reminiscing her memories with her father. Typically on anniversaries and holidays. It's her form of quiet time
Sunny doesn't actually like help when she's cooking, not unless shes genuinely biting off more than she can chew. She'd rather her friends share the space with her while she cooks, and maybe grab an item or two for her when her hooves are full
Sunny considered looking to study magic after getting her alicorn powers, (zipp definitely encouraged it) but Sunny decided against it because 'she doesn't need magic if she has her friends'
Sunny isn't actually good at helping her friends emotionally. Her love language is acts of service, so kind words are all she can really offer.
Canonically (comics), Sunny likes to read! I like to think she has her own book nook and really likes books that are about overcoming odds and happy endings
(Based on the movie) Sunny's most noticable character flaw is believing every choice she makes is justified. A “ends justifies the means” type of character. She grows out of this when she learns she can rely on others to find a solution.
When given no option to explore, Sunny is a theorist more than a researcher
She was NOT immune to propaganda (but she knows what she truly believes in)
Sunny acts without forethought, and when there’s a kink in her quick plan, she forces herself to stop and reevaluate. All the same, she's sensitive to failure.
She is also quite intuitive, with her theories (even though help crafted by her dad) tend to be correct in one way or another!
Sunny was reluctant to rebuild the lighthouse because part of her felt like, starting over meant forgetting her father (as it tends to go, with grief of a parent.) [Her friends help her come around and work with her to give her father's stuff a safe space in the brighthouse]
oh man that's a lot! NEXT!! (any hc i have following posting this will be reblogged to here!!)
I care so much about Zipp and the ways she can grow as a character. She was deep from the beginning but we never really got into more of her rather than her detective side. which i appreciate of course, but you know :)
Zipp is a natural leader (which in my rewrite i want to subtly emphasize this difference with Sunny learning to be a leader)
[Sunny and Zipp eventually would learn to work as a team, rather than one person having a more important say]
Zipp would be the one to teach Sunny what it means to lead, mostly indirectly, but sometimes directly
She leans away from leadership entirely and it causes a disconnect between her and her mother :(
She's drawn to puzzles and mysteries (especially in fiction) but prefers them in really fantastical settings
Zipp loves history, and views it as clues to her research about many things. If it's unrelated to current problem or doesn't have one on hand, she's not likely to read any history books
Zipp loves for Hitch to play detective with her. They snoop out clues together, and he helps her loosen up to solve the mystery faster as well as be more open minded
Zipp is wary of new ponies, and isn't quick to welcome anypony she doesn't know already or anypony not already dedicated to a cause (evidence: misty)
Zipp thinks Sunny studying magic and becoming more powerful would just be awesome to see
Zipp has a "problem" of being right all the time (sagittarius things)
After she gets ignored enough times about something she knows is true, she kind of just stops contributing to any conversation unless she has everypony's attention or if they're all out of ideas
She isn't a big fan of change? She prefers not to do new things all the time
But she LOVES a challenge!
Zipp is uncomfortable with being royalty in general. I assume she’d detach from the whole royalty thing entirely, and agree with Sunny’s ideals of democracy and equality to the point of stepping down as heir. Or she grows into her role, and becomes more and more queenlike each passing day
Zipp seems like the type to always be thinking, even during conversation. She isolates when things get too rough for her, and she's very quick to come up with schemes
Zipp is not good at lying. She avoids responses or tells half truths
She's an adrenaline chaser
Zipp starts out especially sarcastic toward Hitch because he's a sheriff and she thinks that's silly. Also because they have different ideas of leadership when they first meet.
Zipp (as well as Izzy and Sunny) love adventure!
i was so iffy on izzy when they introduced her in the show... i feel like she went from being an actual character with thoughts, to... watered down pinkie pie which is not enjoyable lol but anyways i like her actual moments of personality (not implying her lol XD random!! moments ARENT personality, but there are time where she's actually pushing it to the point of it being genuinely irritating with no comedic payoff :/
I BELIEVE IZZY HAS A PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY!! it just makes sense!! [she remembers in complete detail, or doesnt remember at all until way later]
Izzy would rather lighten the mood than make serious decisions :) She doesn't avoid action, but she does avoid sole leadership
to me, she's Brave and Direct and will step in if nopony else will. the type of character who isn't the hero, but will get the job done
Izzy in my mind is prone to going off on her own and not running ideas by ponies before acting which :) has its issues but comes in handy!
Along with Pipp and Hitch, Izzy LOVES nature! She teaches them both about Bridlewood's flora and fauna :) eventually they start having plants in the brighthouse and wanna explore all flora and fauna in the 3 locations
Izzy likes plants and is curious to what types of plants there are outside of bridlewood
Izzy learns some kind of multitasking spell, where she can create many things at once if she is making things in bulk :D
she does feel out of place in the friend group (canon to canterlot comic) and has a hard time making friends with the unicorns in other places :( [this is up until Misty, who makes her feel better]
Izzy sees Misty as a best friend :) But also takes on a silly older sister role with her!
She helps Misty grow into herself, and feel more secure with her past bebcause Izzy passes on her "damaged doesn't mean useless" ideals she usually saves for her unicycling
Izzy inspires Misty to use creation to get out her feelings, like making tea or exploring with crafts, just to find peace. She also helps Misty get out of her comfort zone in smaller ways, helping her try new things
When Izzy went looking for Maretime bay, Bridlewood just thought she went missing
Izzy wants close unicorn friends :( someone to genuinely bond with [see: Misty]
Izzy’s creativity comes from being really resourceful, BUT as a unicorn that lives in trees i’d imagine she’d have more respect for the trees of any kind LMAOO
she’s always got a solution to a problem even if unconventional or… surprising... but quick thinker!
Izzy loves to create things she can share with her friends (even when she has none, its the future thought that counts)
Izzy is the tallest out of the 5 of them? At least she’s taller than Pipp and Sunny
Izzy believes in Sunny way more than the rest of them do :) When Sunny has a plan, Izzy is ready to back her up!
now i see so many mixed opinions on pipp, but its mostly bc she's social media pony and i can't lie.... i tire of it... but pipp is great on her own! i dont think there's too much wrong with her, but at the same time i havent picked up much of her character and personality outside of social media (aside from this list ofc)
Bc her sister loves mystery and being a detective, Pipp lowkey has a spy hobby :) it started when they were kids, but it came back once they moved to Maretime bay
Pipp plans extravagant fake cases for Zipp every birthday :)
Pipp got her love of mystery (and by extension: horror / spooky) from her sister
Pipp does not have an interest in being any type of leader! she likes to inspire, but not lead :)
Pipp loves to glamp, and takes Hitch with her! Sometimes she camps with him to "embrace nature"
She likes to hear Sunny's spooky stories of the Everfree Forest
Pipp is a speed reader >:3 Any book she reads she just zooms through it
She's a great liar, for acting purposes but also just to save her hide.
Pipp can also be max sneaky, or by being the younger sib with no real duty to fulfill, its much easier for her to slip under the radar. Could be a reason she adores fame so badly and chases it harder than Zipp or Haven do
Pipp knows the city streets like the back of her hoof
She doesnt take Hitch’s title of sheriff very seriously unless she’s in Maretime bay
Pipp is VERY good at being a hype pony [ She was so happy to hype up sunny i ship pipp x sunny call that star petals ]
ill be so honest, hitch was my favorite from the beginning :D he's my favorite g5 pony ever, he's so cute and i love him to no ends!! i really liked seeing him stand up for what he believed in, and then when sunny was like "look, i told you" he didnt try to make any excuse why any pony kinds couldnt be friends :) he accepted it and was ready to help! i loved his moral code, you dont see a lot of lawful good characters this day and age (as far as ive seen)
BUT they did... do something to change his character in mym and tyt, taking away his love for order and replacing it with "stupid cop" gags and him being extremely silly. I miss his overconfidence and ego :( i dont think it should have left with the movie's end, it would have been so funny is he was still such a hardass
When Hitch gets stressed, he tries to alieve the situation and then calm down
Hitch is a scaredy cat
He has an overwhelming love for Maretime Bay, and typically likes to stay there if he can
Hitch liked not having magic so he doesn't actually use the new magic he gains
Hitch is loved by everyone in Maretime Bay, and he loves to protect him as much as he can, but he doesn't baby them
He makes jokes about a holiday about him where everyone cleans up litter around town, but insists its a joke
He gives good advice!
Hitch wanted to protect Sunny from being alone, and often protected her from bullies
Hitch doesn't put his friends above the law, and insists on fair punishment
After he gets Sparky, Hitch doesn't get to work out as much
Adding onto that, Hitch and Pipp bond over mane care
He's a realist, and knows that he can be wrong. But he'd rather the proof be shown first before he switches his ideals
Hitch is always open to listen
so called "free thinkers" when misty brightdawn is the best character in make your mark by far, solely because she feels (to me) like the only 3 dimensional character in the series :/ otherwise i just love her range and how silly she can be :) she feels real and fleshed out and obv she's just cute
Misty's special talent is actually inspiring change within herself and in other ponies, but whatever mym said is fine too
She's a jack of all trades after being made to be basically a maid of Opaline
She's got an excellent sense of direction
Misty got magic with everyone else, but bc of being in Opaline's castle, it was delayed, and weaker + Opaline forbade her from using it
Misty is more willing to confide in Sunny if prompted, because of all the times Sunny's protected her from pressure + Sunny is just a nice beacon of hope to talk to
Misty and Sunny bond over having to find their place in the world on their own due to absence of parent
Misty likes exploring creative outlets with Izzy
Misty hangs out with Sparky and Hitch n they're like a little family (blatant Histy shipping...)
Misty knows a lot about ancient artifacts
Misty (should) have her own room in the Brighthouse specifically for her, that only she and Zipp know about bc they both like quiet time
Misty and Opaline have a similar was of thinking after being together for so long (even though they weren't close)
Her moral code isnt cyrstal clear, due to her conflicted ideals after meeting the mane 5
She doesn't see Opaline as anything more than a faulty mentor and boss, but Opaline does provide for her so Misty is fine to stay
Misty and Izzy bond over basically being outcasts of Bridlewood (for different reasons)
Misty does not scare easy (vs Hitch who does, and Pipp who loves to be scared)

Scooby Doo Mystery Inc, an Introspective.
Daphne - The Spy
She's already been established as being the most physically inclined, a great beauty, and handilly going behind enemy lines (ie getting kidnapped); all traits of a femme fatale. in my canon, daphne really operates as the gang's Body (Wo)Man. In a crime ring she would be The Muscle. I really like the idea that Daphne is classically trained at a young age in all sports; her family may not have be as weslthy as Shaggys but theyve def made some money being world class athletes. This idea also lends itself to the idea that daph was the most well travelled before meeting Mystery Inc, her family always loved to bring her to their competitions, shes been to every Wimbledon cup, etc. While daph is well cultured and great at meeting new people, i do not think she would describe herself as an extrovert altho u cant deny shes warm and welcoming (as much as anyone in the gang is! theyre really a great group of kids). Growing up with a lot of sisters, Daphne is the one most acclimated to team work (maybe they did a lot of team sports growing up?). The reason this doesnt automatically translate to out of this world people skills is because her ability to work with others is strongly rooted in being familiar with her team. She grew up with her sisters and has been friends with Mystery Inc for a long time too; shes built up a repartee with her group and really relies on her understanding of them and their understanding of her to be as efficient as she is. In this way, she and Scooby really hold the group together. Definitely a Actions Speak Louder Than Words type which is why people who dont know her well are so willing to overlook her as a vapid prettygirl; ie when daph spots a clue shes more likely to "wow look at that!" and point rather than "hey velma that glowing orb looks really similar to the one the ghost is always haulin around" Daph and Kim Possible would be truly the unstoppable duo.
disguises, stealth, and sleight of hand ??
polyglot, also designated translator
well connected (but cant network). her sisters got their fingers in all the pies and the Blake Sisters were Daphne's first Mystery Inc :) i do not buy into Daphne having a sister complex #speakingmytruth
very well travelled, met fred on a layover?
literally james bond, ya feel?
tldr; woman of the world, woman of the world, teamplayer
Fred - The Mechanic
Breaking off of the 'Traps Guy' prototype that Mystery Incorporated set up for us; Fred has always been the one at the steering wheel. Everyone loves a Himbo Fred moment but i know hes capable of great specialization just like velma daph shaggy and scoob are. Hes not an air head hes just thinking about a V8 engine vs a Turbo ykno? I do want to lean into the idea that Fred works with his hands and works with contraptions (velma is the gizmo girl tho) and works with CARS and is knowledgeable about them! very, Mona Lisa from My Cousin Vinny/Rosalie from Twilight (ie gets under their car + is hot) but because i want all these kids to be multi faceted, id like to explore the other half of cars which is Travelling. in this day in age, seeing the world is so marketable which is why i can see fred being the one with biggest internet influence. More so than that, fred keeps the team on the move, books accomodations, plans the roadtrips, has the biggest thirst to see the world (maybe thats one of the things that first pulls him and daph together, shes already seen so much of it before they met) Out of the group, i think Fred has the closest relationship with his parents (i think this was shown in some of the tv shows? If not, this is my canon) Fred, despite loving to work with cold hard metal, is maybe the most deeply feeling of Mystery Inc. he really jumps on cases after meeting the people who are most severely impacted by them. This would also explain why hes so inclined to 'himbo moments', he doesnt mind making the less rational choice if it means he can help his fellow man. He and scooby are def the most socially inclined; fred bc he really cares about People (thats why hes a traveller, meeting new people is one of the fun parts!)
automotives, maintains the car (velma helped him set up his sound system) and loves a good car chase
also into planes, trains, and ships but cars are his first love
inventions
explosives
physics, hes a car guy but bikes are fascinating
social media savvy (hes so chipper and always dressed to the 9s courtesy of daph, IG eats him up). Maybe he started the Mystery Inc blog as a way to keep his family updated about what hes doing (the first People he loved was def his family) he gossips about celebrities with velma and daph
loves travelling (in his car) and posts to his gram (see above), his experience with hotels/motels/hostels/etc lets him talk extensively about hospitality with shaggy + scooby
tldr; auto shops, social butterfly, humanitarian
Shaggy - The Doctor
Hear me out!!!! Norville Rogers is known to be: Concerned about his bodily safety and RICH! Tell me which profession that is besides Doctor and ill rework this whole thing. i think this really works for shaggy, hes by no means materialistic but mans has grown up with the silver spoon and can really appreciate luxurious creature comforts like quality bed linens. Like. that plain green t shirt is Hermés dont get it twisted. this also works bc as the groups highroller, we now know how this op is funded (aside from being paid for their detective work:freds blog but like..we really didnt see that often. id like them to be able to do this as a fulltime hobby if they so choose) Aside from this, we know some of Shaggys other great loves are Food and Not Being Physically in Danger. I wouldnt be surprised if one of his parents or older relatives made their money in medicine, allowing shaggy to grow up in that scape. omg id love if this doctor relative was a mentor to shaggy but also a bit of a hypochondriac; maybe shaggys scaredy cat tendencies have roots in his relative's anxieties. I think Shaggys fear comes from a good place, he just wants him and his friends to be healthy happy and whole. In line with medicine, Shaggy is the one who pushes the team to take care of themselves and take much needed time to recuperate from the stress of solving mysteries. As an only child, he can be seen as a foil to Daphne. She has a lot of sisters and did a lot of team sports and became very comfortable working with others. Shaggy was an only child whos only friend was his dog and they prefer to stay in their circles of safety. But both shaggy and daphne have about the same level of social skills lol i think also, bc shaggy grew up without a lot of friends, he is the most conscious of his friendships with the gang. like, he really doesnt take them for granted bc for a long time he did not have any friends at all
selfcare
Mystery Inc's checkbook (when appropriate)
appreciation for the finer things
healthcare
medicine, biology. daphne's go to gym buddy (shaggy really knows kinesiology)
chemistry aka alchemy, imagine the happy medium between Scoobie's love of cuisine and fred's love of ..bombs
tldr; self care KING, truly looks out for *his* people. medic
Velma - The Professor
Velma velma velma. im kind of dropping the ball with her. i want to develop this a lil further bc i think im leaning too hard on the crutch that is Velma Is The Bookworm. Altho i do think Velma is more interested in the Humanities Vs STEM fields, id say her genius reputation is cultivated from how well rounded her knowledge base is. In terms of academics, Velma is the jack of all trades ( opposite to daphne who is JoaT for athletics). Because of this (and because shes great at all things she puts her mind to) shes is also left with the helm of 'resident hacker'. As im typing this, truly the girls of the gang have very broad interests while the boys are very specialized. Anyways, id say the key to Velma is that shes very good at making more from the sum of the parts. She does not shy away from the grunt work of academia, she knows some Important Things will not be intuitive to her but she will run flashcards on them until theyre reflexive bc she knows having that info on hand will be important at some point. Her ability to take the factoids of life and put them together also makes her the teams True detective, not fred. It just makes more sense imo that Velma is the one to push the team to find and close cases. Obviously everyone in Mystery Incorporated has strong convictions on Right and Wrong but i think Velma sees the beauty and satisfaction of solving puzzles.
Edit on 1 mar: may think of switching role of Gizmo from Velma to Daphne since canonically, Daph is always with her cellie. But instead of making her the vapid airhead glued to her phone shes j really into tech (think felicity from Arrow)
Loves trivia
history, talks a lot about international cuisine with daph + scoob
software > hardware, talks gadgets with daph + fred
She and fred share a thirst to see and explore new things
statistician and mathematics aficionado
forensic sciences
law
very up to date with popular culture, from the anthropologic perspective. watches the most reality tv, tv in general, and movies; its interesting, documentaries are informative, and she likes to keep it on as white noise while researching
business, finance, and economics. thats how she knows all the business bad guys on sight (during the reveal), she also handles the group finances with shaggy
tldr; lifelong academic, the most hardworking, curious
Scooby - The Chef
Scooby! The team mascot! Firstly, scoob is Shaggys *best* friend. It makes sense to me that their interests overlap so much. Scooby has always been known to be a big eater (he *is* a great dane...) but my mans is CULTURED. He eats a lot but its never slop. Given Shaggys keen awareness of health and wellness, im not surprised that scooby has combo-ed that influence with his own love of the culinary arts. Shaggy and scooby have definitely known each other the longest; so how ever old the gang were when they met, in my canon Shaggy and Scooby were the first to become friends and it shows. But obviously theyre all friends, and to the group id say scooby is the hearth (not heart) of the operation as any great relationship starts with a plate of good food. Quiet moments of deep inner contemplation will often happen at Scoobys side and scooby, consciously or not, really provides a place for everyone to be themselves in the same way having to dice 5 onions is meditative. We've seen that scooby is a golden hearted goof ball, i think this could be sourced from a highly admirable sense of humility (ironic since hes the only non human of the group?) Great danes are known to be fierce protectors, and even tho (like shaggy) scoob is a scaredy cat, when push comes to shove he is really protective. Thats why hes so cautious! He really doesnt like seeing his friends in risky situations! My hot take is that *Scooby* is the people person/social butterfly of the group! This whole cast is a band of mis fits, having a dog makes Mystery Inc much more approachable to outsiders. Scooby, being a dog, is great at warming hearts to him and loves to be at the center of attention. In regards to mystery solving, hes also invaluable as a clue finder since his senses are so highly developed.
super sniffer, works the most directly with velma on cases
cooking (bonds with shaggy + daphne over but for dif reasons)
people person, gets along real well with daphne's sisters (everyone loves dogs)
very much looks after the gang and motherhens them, hates seeing them walk into danger
zoology (obvious i know)
tldr; iron chef, spokesman of mystery inc
General Notes
Shaggy and Daphne are the two in the gang who are really Of The Body (shaggys understanding of its inner workings, Daphne being the peak form of a human specimen), while Fred and Velma are Of The Mind (Fred who works with calculations inventions etc and Velma who is a lifelong all rounder academic)
Another dichotomy is that Daphne and Fred are the pragmatic pair while Shaggy and Velma are the theoretic pair
But in general i think a lot of the team has a lot of interests that overlap which keeps them tightly bonded

The time Hasbro stole Disney (Meeker’s dump lost episode by TariqToons Tv)
Cw for murder gore, swearing. Very scary 😢
It was a dark and stormy night. Supply Bag was on the couch, watching My Little Pony, his favorite show next to South Park. Plug walked up to him.
“Supply bag, stop hogging the damn tv I need to watch Breaking bad and stop hogging all the hot Cheetos”
Supply bad looked back at his roommate with sympathy in his eyes, setting the bag down.
“Sorry plug, but, its a good show! You can watch with me if you want and we can both watch My Little Pony!”
Plug groaned.
“no thanks you.”.
He went upstairs and slept through his summer. All of the sudden, he heard a highpitched, yet muscular laughter. It came from the tv. He approaches the Televisom and sees Mickey mouse with hyper realistic-
“This is bullshit.”
Turns it off. He goes back to bed, unfazed.
Downstairs, Supply bag continues watching MLB and doesnt realize the static background. Probably that new TV malfunctioning in one day! That is not good!he walks towards the tv. He calls out for Plug. Plug comes downstairs
.
“What?” He said
“The TV is making weird noises!” Supply bag replied.
“God fucking damn it. Let me see.”
Plug examines the somehow malfunctioning tv, however, this was not a normal malfunction. It has pink glowing. Which turned into rainbow glowing.
“Oh fuck,” they both said.
Right before they could say anything they transported to the pony world! In the TV!
“Where are we?” Plug asked as supply bag Sgasped.
“We’re in Ponyworld! Yay!!!!!!”
“great.”
They look around the world together, it was so nice and pink.
“Hey there new friends! Welcome to My little pony! :D”
“Oh boy, a new pony sheep thing!” Plug looked in disgust as SB said that, excidetly.
Then 2 others appeared one was a black haired woman with flowers in her head with a green leafy dress. Another was a short man who is assumed. To have jaundice colorful helmet and wings.
The sheep pony declared themselves
“I’m Dusk Bellwhether!”
“I’m mother earthel!”
“And I’m Trainbow!!!”
They looked at the three ponies?
“Uhmm… questions. Why aren’t you guys actual ponies? I mean, you guys are nice, but this is My Little Pony, not My little Brony. Hope this helps!”
Silence. S
“SILENCE”
A voice yelled, startling the object duo.
“Now what?” Plug snarled.
A blonde girl, about 16 years old, blonde short hair with girly purple and cyan clothes.
“Welcome to pony world! I am nizzei, the princess of ponies!”
“What- serious,,, YOU’RE NOT EVEN A PONY-“
“Anyways, wanna tour?” She smiles
“I’m glad too, I’m supply bag, and this is plug, he’s a rough guy! But he has a heart of gold.”
“Can you not say tha-“
“Wonderful, let’s get started!”
Nizze teleports them because she is a alicorn princess
“This is canterlot, this is equestria! And we have so much more to show!”
“This is the library, I love reading! Just like twilight did!” Dusk says.
“This is cloudsdale, a plathe for pegathai!” Trainbow added as they teleport to the clouds.

Silence again.
“End of tour! Wait… OH NO I FORGOT! THE TRANSFORMATION!”
“The what?” Plug commented.
Nizziw walks up to them and wraps her arms around the duo. Kidnapping them. They were sent to the dark place.
“Last part of the tour, become us!”
“What… WHERE ARE WE?” plug demanded.
“The transformation place, silly! It’s required by equestrian law!”
“That doesn’t seem… nice! I think we should just-“
“Just what, supply bag??? let two measly objects roam around our place without moderation??? I wont let that happen..”
Her eyes turned hyper realistic bloody red.
“Seriously, I’d rather die than watch this.” Plug commented again.
“NO! PLEASE THERES GOTTA BE ANOTHEE WAY!”
The three “ponies” who were now Dawn bellwhether, Mother Goethel, and turbo transformed into more darker and eviler versions of themselves with hyperrealistic blood eyes,
“Seriously, oh my god, think of something original guys!”
“Our little pony! Our little pony, that is what friendship’s all about,” they sang an repeated. Like a cult.

The four ponies growled. All of the sudden. A bald man with a mustache and glasses with a sidepartner with lab coats came in.
“Jesse. We need to cook.”
The ponies were terrified.
Then men used their abilities to defeat the so called ponies and saved Plug and SB.”
“Your welcome boys.”
They go back home and rethink their life choices.
“Plug, if I ever learned anything.”
Silence 3.
“What is it?.”
“I’ll never watch My little pony alone, ever again.”
“Know what? I’ll watch it with you.l
Then uhh the end.

ten books 2 know me!
thank for you the tag @pancakehouse @fruity-individual @serethereal @rollercoasterwords !
-> skulduggery pleasant, derek landy.
starting with this one because this WAS my childhood i was. i never read percy jackson never read twilight read [redacted] and it wasnt even good but my dad thought id like these so he bought me the first skulduggery pleasant one day...oh man oh boy...these were. i was eight queuing up outside a whsmith with a schoolbag full of books for the author's booksigning...also he was so nice ta derek x
-> giovanni's room, james baldwin.
cannot get into this too much before i start wailing and biting and stuff but well. giovanni's room is my favourite book of all time i read most of it. last year in june laying on brighton beach while the sun was going down and i have never recovered from and will you bring me home again / yes. i'll bring you home again since and fear i never will. also! first james baldwin book i read who has come to be an author whose writing style i adore and carry in my mind whenever i try to write something myself.
-> young mungo, douglas stuart.
not the first book i ever cried at but. first book i ever experienced disgusting full body sobs while reading and fierce competitor also for. my favourite book. had to reread so much of those final pages because i couldnt concentrate with all the crying and after that i am so excited to never have to experience the physical chest-aching worry that i did for the duration of reading this. also i think the very quiet way love is written here through. very trivial small things is something i loved very much and that has stayed with me!
-> wuthering heights, emily bronte.
read this when i was about eleven, and then again a few weeks ago with my mum (whose favourite book it is) and it was still so. absolutely sickening i just think its excellent xx and without it we wouldn't have kate bush's 1978 single wuthering heights so xx think on that xx
-> the autobiography of malcom x, alex haley.
when i was a child my younger sister joined a sunday league football team and my dad used to give her a tenner every time she scored a goal. to even things out since i refused to get up at the arsecrack of dawn to contract hypothermia on a frozen football pitch, he started giving me books exclusively on malcolm x to read and would give me a tenner every time i finished one. this one was the first i read and was indeed the first book that ever made me cry at the end xx
-> my brilliant friend, elena ferrante.
so many of these are recent reads because it was only jan 2022 that i made a genuine effort to get back into reading for leisure and mbf is no different but well. the way friendship is written here is just unhinged and incredible and the series in general so far has been. there is nothing like it i fear
-> the raven boys, maggie steifvater.
gansey unfortunately.
-> macbeth, william shakespeare.
okay i know i know but. when you are studying it in englit class for your gcse it might as well be a book innit. anyway of all the texts i did for english both at gcse + a level macbeth is still my favourite and probably the most effort i ever put into an english essay. special shoutout to frankenstein which i can enjoy in hindsight but unfortunately it fucked me on the exam so out of bitterness it doesnt get a place here x
-> the secret history, donna tartt.
i did inhale this book but also it gets a place purely for being my first exposure to donna tartt's writing and style in general which is so very distinctive and has. undoubtedly had an effect on me for better or for worse we shall one day see but for now. who can say!
-> foster, claire keegan.
it is a little pamphlet of a book at eighty six pages but. i read it just over a month ago and havent properly stopped thinking about it since it was just everything quiet + mundane + understated that makes my brain start sparking and whirring and. im bringing it on holiday in the summer so i can read it again in the appropriate season xx
tagging. but no pressure. @gaewaren @dykefever @emerqldv @fastasyoucan1999 @forlorngarden @writteninverses @boyjoan !!
#also it doesnt quite earn a place but the enemy series by charlie higson? no one ever seemed to read those but that was my fucking last of#us. that was my mazerunner. that was my dystopian YA (bar the hunger games okay yeah i was a hunger games girl wasnt everyone)#considered putting the beatles in their generation on here but managed to avoid it thank god. also no future by matthew worley#which was a dense slog into british punk as a politics and youth subculture but also well i learned a lot about my favourite topic#tag game#reading tag#will b fun to see how i would do this a little while on from now. like what maintains its spot + what gets bumped n stuff
