Some more image redraws but specifically Helper edition this time because I love these idiots
I am aware that many of the ones in this we are not yet aware of, so here’s a few overviews:
Pink void person is The Guide (she/any), who is most known for being the reason behind most if not all exposition behind a given story. Basically, she possesses people and info-dumps about lore and worldbuilding, me too bestie
The two red lookalikes are The Interviewer and The Reporter (both they/them), you can distinguish them mainly through their hats, mics and hair, Interviewer’s hat and mic is labelled INT, and their hair is longer, while Reporter’s is labelled REPO, and they have shorter hair. They’re like the chaotic twins in the family dynamic. They are exactly as you’d expect! They give reports and interviews in a given story depending on the current events. How will I bring this into the stories themselves?? NO CLUE!! WE’LL FIND OUT!!
The guy behind Milkman in the third image is The Deliveryman (He/him), he’s kinda like Milkman’s older, slightly more responsible brother. Only slightly though, he’s more the type to encourage the behaviour but not actively contribute yk. He delivers stuff that isn’t specifically milk to people of the multiverse :)
The two in the first image we ARE actually aware of, i’m sure we all recognise The Narrator in the back there, though the one in the front is none other than our bestie The Cameraman! (he/any), I was gonna give a reference for Camera on the Gift acc but I completely forgot I had to do that and any refs I have of him rn are rlly old, so… you’ll get it one day ig lol (fyi, you can find Narrator’s reference on the Gift account, however I plan to put it up here at some point too)
Original images under cut:
#birdo babbles#birdo’s silly little guys#art#digital art#birdo babbles about the sillies#terribly sorry for the rambling a bit there#i cannot add more than one cut in a post :(#awfully rude of it#birdo makes the sillies real

Trans Icon Birdo
With the release of Super Mario Bros. 2 on the NES the world was introduced to an egg shooting dinosaur diva named Birdo. She has not changed much since her first appearance, unless you count the Super Mario Super Show. In the manual it was revealed that she was in fact trans, although it doesn't use the kindest language. The manual says that she "thinks he is a girl". Not the kindest way to put it but it does also say she prefers to be called Birdetta. She also goes by Birdie, and in the original Japanese version she was Catherine. I only bring up that last one because she looks like a Catherine.
She has been a reoccurring character since her first appearance, mostly showing up in Mario Party and Mario Kart. In Mario Kart Double Dash it is revealed that Yoshi is her boyfriend and he is well aware of her transition. Yoshi, loving boyfriend and trans ally, he's a keeper. Birdie was originally an enemy and often switches sides depending on the game. In Super Mario RPG she was a mini boss hiding in a giant egg. In multiplayer games she is often paired with Yoshi for teams, the team name often reinforcing a couple status.
Now there is some discourse around Birdie's name. The manual says she prefers to be called Birdetta and if that is still cannon, that means Nintendo has been dead naming her for decades. However, as far as I can tell, the Birdetta name was retconned. Her nickname Birdie has been mentioned far more in the actual games, which is why I've been using that. It is still cannon that she's trans but that little fact has been long relegated to the game manuals, and Smash Bros trophies. Officially it seems to be a Toad and Yoshi situation where they're just named after their species. Who knows maybe it will be made cannon that Birdetta was just Birdie experimenting with her name and trying to find one that appeals to her.
Nintendo does officially recognize her as a woman, she is often in posters and advertising material that are specifically showing the girls of the Mario franchise along with Peach and Daisy. It's at the point where you have to go out of your way to misgender her, yes there are a few people who do. What does matter though, is that Birdie is an official trans icon in the Mario universe.

MY THOUGHTS ON ZE DIRECT
Insert various Ohs about some of the games I didn’t care much about
Dman that Fire emblem game really gettin DLC?
HORY SHEET PIKMIN FOOR! Release date
I didn’t even Know Layton hasn’t made any new games recently and I’m still hyped
Gb! Oh! GBA! OH! Mario and Luigi now on switch via GBA! YESSSS!!!!
…Hot damn link is gonna be SO FUCKED IN TOK
nananananana Katamari~ Damaci~
oh shit an advance wars Update
OH SHIT BIRDO MARIO KART!
Magalor my boy What DID THE MASTER CROWN DO TO YOU!?
Side note can’t wait for Juno Songs to remaster Crowned
Oh neat the Splatoon 1 location. I haven’t played any games but *Side dish* WHAT THE FU-
nother side note EVERYONE IS HERE: THE DIRECT (and most likely in so much pain)
Damn Samus just keeps on winning!
i really hope the DS gets the Nintendo Online Treatment
…aaaaaand that’s all I got.
now for some Pokémon rambling cause I just got Scarlet.
imagine if the Disc Pokémon from the book was just the Collector but more responsible. Like they appear and Paldea goes to shit Split between Past and Future Paradox scarren land and every solution they have to fix it makes life worse. Then Mr Jacq pulls a Belos (We all know damn well jacq is suspicious especially after giving you the Nasty Plot Tm and his weird desire for you to get the Beasts of Ruin) and try to manipulate the Disc Pokémon’s Power to get whatever he wants
#pokemon scarlet and violet#mr jacq#nintendo#nintendo direct#Pikmin 4#tears of the kingdom#mario and luigi

What a day! Went birding at Dublin bay!
THREE (3) lifers: sanderling, great crested grebe and pintail. Don’t know how they managed to evade me for this long, but I finally got them! Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to catch the little stint that has been hanging around here for the last week, but that’s for another time.
Other awesome spots: a HUGE flock of bar tailed godwits and oystercatchers (300 and OVER 1000 respectively, but that ain’t too uncommon, especially here), my first Brent geese of the season, a cool Carrion x Hooded crow hybrid AND 2 partially leucistic hoodies.
I was under a time limit too, had to escape the rising tide. That was a bit of a thrill ride. Like, I looked back and the place I walk like 10 minutes ago was already covered with water (it was quite shallow so I wasn’t in major danger, just in danger of getting my feet and clothes wet.) Later on I was like “I should probably go back closer to the land”, but saw even more sanderlings and I was getting my hopes up for the stint and I was like “👀 what if…” It (probably) wasn’t there tho and I had to go back around the sand spit, and had to CLIMB OVER WITH SLIPPERY BOOTS ON A 45 DEGREE WALL OVER AN INLET! Thank GOODNESS I didn’t slip in. I got to the land in the end tho.
Lastly, perhaps my favourite part, was that I got to witness a murmuration of maybe 1000s of those waders, and it was mesmerizing, them splitting and integrating the flocks back together into one. Truly phenomenal stuff.
And then I had to go back to catch a lecture. Eh, tide was up anyway and the birds were inaccessible. But, it was awesome. :)
#birdo rambles#I only found out about the pintails after I was lookin through the pics#in the field I thought they’d were grebes but on the way home#I was lookin through the pics and thought ‘those ducks have awfully long necks…’

ok it’s been a few days but i kinda can’t stop thinking about that nintendo direct and i wanna ramble about it for a while, so i might as well just do that here i guess?? here we go in no particular order
GHOST TRICK GHOST TRICK GHOST TRICK omg everyone needs to get this game!! it’s so good and it’s got the best fictional dog of all time
as a massive xenoblade fan, that look at the xc3 story dlc was certainly... something. like holy shit. please show me more
speaking of “show me more”: tears of the kingdom? i’m getting slightly tired of all these teaser trailers that barely give us anything. what is this game? i know it’s the sequel to botw and it’s probably gonna be great and everything, but i feel like i need more information. oh well, i guess we got a little more this time around. maybe there’s a zelda direct next month or something
BRAND NEW YOSHI’S ISLAND TRACK for mario kart!! yes please. and birdo too! we’re getting characters now, apparently, so that’s cool
we <3 katamari! i’m probably not gonna get this one since i own it on ps2 and i played it not that long ago, but katamari is always a good time
PROFESSOR LAYTON IS BACK?! man, i didn’t even know how much i missed that man and his games, but i actually got super emotional just watching him turn to the camera and smile. and it’s a new game?! a new game that i can only assume takes place after the original trilogy?? wow it’s been so long
so level 5 is back for real? not only layton, but a new fantasy life too! i never played fantasy life, but i know that some people were obsessed with it and were hoping for a port someday. so happy for the fans!
decapolice looks good too. it reminded me of that rain code game, which also looks pretty great
for years now, i’ve been thinking that i’d maybe actually check out style savvy if one came to switch, and fashion dreamer seems like it basically is style savvy under a new name, so maybe i’ll get it one day
sea of stars is so beautiful, but every time i see it, i remember that i never finished the free dlc for the messenger. at least i played through the main game
octopath 2 and ALL of the hd-2d games are so gorgeous, and yet the only thing i’ve played is the first demo for the first octopath. one day!!
the pikmin fans have been waiting for so long, but 4 is almost here! i still haven’t played any of the pikmin games, but i’m planning on trying one of the older ones this year
that new don’t nod thing seems pretty cool
GAME BOY AND GAME BOY ADVANCE YAY!!! i’m so happy <3
i’ve always been interested in etrian odyssey, but it’s a little intimidating. the new collection has difficulty settings and auto mapping, though, so maybe i’ll get that on sale sometime
i’ve never really liked cards in video games (no, i’m not a chain of memories fan), but i’m willing to try baten kaitos!
THE METROID PRIME REMASTER IS REAL. and they casually dropped it on the eshop after the presentation was done lol. and it’s beautiful! it’s almost embarrassing to say that i honestly thought they had barely upgraded it at all, because after looking at comparison screenshots/videos it’s like night and day. i’m personally not bothered by it being just the first game bc i love mp1 but i’m not really that into 2 or 3. that’s just me, though
and that’s it phew
