When BoJack Horseman (2014-2020) said "you can't keep doing shitty things and then feel bad about yourself like that makes it ok. you need to be better" and "all we have are the connections we make" and "I really should've thought about the view from halfway down" and "sometimes you have to take responsibility for your own happiness" and "you do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around, you turn yourself around, THAT'S what it's all about" and "things have to get worse before they can get better" and "in real life, the big gesture isn't enough, you need to be consistent" and "if we hadn't met each other until now, we wouldn't be the people we are now" and, my personal favourite, "every day it gets a little easier, but you gotta do it every day, that's the hard part, but it does get easier".

[ID: The handshake meme with "Boherb" written on one arm and "Fiddauthour" written on the other. On the hands is written "Used to be extremely close in their 20s but then an unfortunate incident tore them apart and separated them for decades". /End ID]
Was thinking about two of my favourite ships and I came to this conclusion.

i am not the best with anaylsises or character explanations but the fact that bojack never learned how to love and how to show love was really sad . He learned everything from television , everything . As we know it doesn't depect anything realistically , expecially the kind he watches .
He also learned a lot from the shows he played too . Expecially horsin' around , when he has to take care of beatrice , his first place to take help is a episode from horsin' around , he really doesn't know what to do , or when someone is crying it's not just a man who can't deal with emotions as we see from the moment he learns a few comforting words from Holly , he starts using them from that time as we can see how he says them to Diane .
With his younger years stolen by his parents and the older ones stolen by fame , he never got to live like a normal person , experience normal love , sadness etc.

Season 3, episode 4 of Bojack Horseman is like a small sliver of proof for the audience that maybe Bojack isn't the worst person in the world. He goes underwater for some press thing for the Oscars. He can't drink or smoke or do drugs underwater. He ends up on a bus where he has to help a seahorse deliver it's babies, and then one gets left behind so he has to take care of it. The seahorse baby gets hungry so he has to buy it some food, meanwhile he's keeping this baby safe and entertained. He finally gets to a gas station and when he goes to pay for the food, the cashier refuses to take his currency because they use a different kind underwater. He throws the money at the cashier, the cashier takes out a crowbar and a bat and goes after him for stealing the items.
Bojack starts to really grow fond of this baby. He risked his life for it multiple times throughout the episode. We can see him smiling at it, entertaining it, and doing a really good job of taking care of this child that doesn't belong to him. (In some way, I want to say that this is a reference to his big bender with Sara Lynn in season 3, where he fantasizes about a life he could've had with Charlotte and how in the fantasy he is an amazing father).
But the instance I really want to talk about is when he sees this stream of water going up. He goes into it with the baby and he soon realizes that it is taking them to this huge, industrial fan that could shred them both into pieces. He holds onto the baby's hand as tight as he could, but its hand slipped and it went straight towards the fan. Bojack has to think and act quickly, so he pushes himself up towards the fan and stops it with his glass oxygen bubble thing he has around his head to keep him from dying. The thing that gets me is how he had no idea whether or not it would hold up under the pressure of the fan. It could've burst the bubble and caused him to drown and die, but the baby would've been okay. He did it not for his own benefit, but because it was the right thing to do in his mind. It was a completely selfless act.

The way Bojack’s views on forgiveness and apologies frequently seem to shift fascinates me. Sometimes he thinks “I am horrible and unforgivable and something I say or do can make up for what I’ve done, so there’s no point In apologizing,” other times he seems to expect a half hearted apology to magically fix everything. And there are also a few times where he knows apologizing can’t make up for what he’s done, but says sorry anyway
#tho I guess it makes sense because Bojack as a person is a mess of so many issues and inconsistent because of that#like sometimes he thinks he’s better than everyone and other times he thinks he’s the most worthless garbage person alive#it all depends on the circumstances he’s in and how his tangled mess of issues and dysfunction reacts to said circumstances#bojack horseman#bojack the horse#bjhm#Bojack thoughts#meta I guess?

Love like a dog
TW: alcoholism, drugs, mental illnesses, toxic men in love, brief suggestive theme (not really detailed but mentioned), furry (it's bojack horseman, what did you expect),
Yolo cuz they're married. Ikr it's Canon (I need professional help). BUT THEY'RE LITERALLY GRUMPY X SUNSHINE 😭 enemies to lovers, sun x moon etc. Toxic men in love goes vroom vroom
Anyway let's start 🤫🧏♂️🧏♀️
Bojack and mr peanutbutter.. describing them together was difficult. A comic duo? Nemesis? Enemies? Reluctant friends? Mostly it varied from days to days, though most of the time mr peanutbutter was cheerful and friendly when bojack was a moody and grumpy dude.
The first time they met was in the 90s, during the infamous Era of the horsin' around that was very popular at this time. Mr peanutbutter of course loved the show, though loved was an understatement with how he was so excited with every episode each weeks to watch again, probably his favorite time of the week. He was rather busy with his own show though, basically a rip off of horsin' around but with a dog, the dog being mr peanutbutter of course.
But oh was he so excited to be invited at one of these parties for celebrities. Well, of course he was usually excited to go at any party but he was ecstatic when he found out the bojack horseman would be there to. He prepared hours before going, nervous to find what types of clothes to wear and all that shit. He was a nervous mess, walking around the house. He's never been so stressed to meet someone, but bojack isn't just anyone for him. So, after a lot of pep talk in the mirror, he gathered the courage to go, excited to finally see him
It was another crappy celebrities party for bojack. Just a bunch of actors showing off to other actors. What a bunch of hypocrite. He really wasn't sober enough for this shit. So, he ordered a strong drink from the bartender, wanting to forget he was even at this ass party as he thought. He did think about smoking but it wasn't allowed in the building and his agents were watching over him like owls to not do some shitty stuff like yell to some actor or do drugs.
Mr peanutbutter was euphoric to go to this party. When he entered, he saw people partying, some talking or drinking. Ah, social events, his specialty. Everyone just loved him! He came across many actors, starting friendly conversations with them but not really thinking, his thoughts set on finding bojack.
So when he saw him from across the room.. oh boy was it something. The actor was obviously looking like a grumpy alcoholic, even at this time, but oh he hung the stars to Mr peanutbutter. He could feel his heartbeat quicken and his ears going up, strange feelings coming up to him.
The horse was interrupted in arguing with the bartender about, I quote:"give me another drink or I'll do your mom" thing by feeling quick taps on his shoulder, like some fangirl wanting a picture. He grumbled, stopping mid way the argument to look at Mr peanutbutter, who held the most puppy dog eyes he ever met when looking at him
"What?" Bojack said, rudely. He didn't want another fan coming over, he wanted to he left alone.
The silly actor was nervous, he never imagined this day happening but here it was. "Bojack horseman and Mr peanutbutter in the same room! Was is this, a crossover episode?!" He said cheerfully
The horse raised a brow, both in confusion and irritation. "Who?" He said, not caring to not know this lab. Before Mr peanutbutter can continue bojack interrupts him. "Actually, I don't care of who you are, I just wanna spend my night alone and forget about this shitty party"
but Mr peanutbutter didn't care about any shitty stuff he was saying, looking at him as if he hung the moon while he was talking trash about the party. In fact, it ended up that bojack got more drunk rambling while his new "best friend" was looking over for him, listening to him with affectionate eyes, telling him occasional goofy and cheerful stuff to lighten him up. And of course he accompanied him home because he wasn't in a good state to drive.
Bojack thought it would be the last time he heard about that annoying dude. He could actually just forget about him now. But oh boy was he wrong.
In fact mr peanutbutter just kept calling or texting him to go on party, because somehow that dog found out his number. Stupid Hollywood contacts. It wasn't yet hollywoo. Even though he kept refusing, eventually, on a lonely night, he accepted out of boredom.
Mr peanutbutter was in fact shocked to see his favorite person comes up to his party. His happiness just got ten time worse. He practically rushed off to him
"Is that bojack horseman?!" He said while coming closer, obviously happy to see him there
Bojack though was irritated by how cheerful he acted, wanting to tell him to leave him alone and be realistic, but for some reason, he didn't. He just went on to reluctantly listening to Mr peanutbutter rambling about some crossover episode, wondering what he's even on about.
The party was rather full, most people just having fun. There wasn't an exception for bojack and mr peanutbutter who were both drunk on the couch after having spent a long night of drinking and of bojack trying to get him to not punch a mirror, the goofball having thought it was another dog mostly.
The dog giggled, feeling silly. "Hey wouldn't it be soo funny if we kissed" he said without thinking, too drunk to care. Not that he would care sober either.
The horse raised an eyebrow. "Can't you even hide how much of an attention whore you are" he said sarcastically, sarcasm still there despite how drunk he was.
Then, a moment of silence passed where they both looked into each other for a long while without saying anything. This eerily tense moment where the bursting sounds of the party became background noise where nothing else was more worth looking at at this moment than each other's eyes.
Then, suddenly, Mr peanutbutter leans in for a kiss, though slumping on the couch and missing him from close, their lips having been so close yet so far. instead his forehead now against his shoulder. He got off slowly, holding his shoulders as support.
"Sorry.. I made it weird" he said sheepishly with a goofy smile, but before he could try to get away, bojack leaned in and kissed him back. At first, the actor is surprised, not having thought this. But he quickly returned the kiss, wanting it to last forever as he clung into him
Bojack breaks the kiss after a moment to breathe. "You're already weird" he said sarcastically, though then Mr peanutbutter leans back into the kiss, them hungrily kissing while Mr peanutbutter gets on top of him on the couch, not caring if there was people around.
But bojack did. He was drunk, but he was still thinking of his reputation. What would people think if they saw him kissing this idiot that he was supposed to hate? So, the horse pushes him off, rudely telling him some insults such as idiot and stupid. The dog was just so confused, sitting there looking guilty as if he got caught red-handed. Bojack leaves the party quickly, embarrassed and angry at himself.
He did try to ignore his "best friend" for a while, but this guy is kinda hard to ignore. So he just told himself he'd go hang out with him and act like nothing happened. And it worked, for a while. Actually, for years. Until Mr peanutbutter invited himself into his home.
It was something stupid, something about his crew trying to get insects out of his house but ending up pestering the house or something. Honestly bojack didn't listen, or gave a fuck about the story behind it, he was just annoyed the lab was sleeping at his house and not at a hotel or something.
And, as expected, Mr peanutbutter did annoy him the whole day, constantly wanting to hang out, go at the park, literally anything. He even proposed skiing. But the horse was hearing none of this, instead wanting to watch horsin' around in peace while eating his entire stock of food. When he saw he couldn't convince him to go out, he settled for this calm afternoon, just happy being with him.
Though of course he couldn't keep his mouth shut. He had to comment at every scene or laugh loudly as if it was the funniest thing in the world. Bojack obviously tried to tell him to shut up, even threatening him to shove him down the toilet but he laughed at what he thought was a joke while he just looked at him with an irritated expression.
But finally, it was the time to sleep. And he could finally escape the lab's energy, at least for a little while.
Mr peanutbutter was sleeping on the couch, to bojack's demand because he apparently didn't want him in the guest room. But he didn't mind, being overly happy over sleeping on the couch. He curled up in a ball, kicking his feet occasionally in his sleep.
Well, the horse's rest was of little time because he saw his "best friend" entering the room in a hurry to get under bojack's blanket, looking like a scared dog
"Bojack, I had a nightmare! There was like vacuums everywhere!" Mr peanutbutter rambles, hiding his nose under his blanket.
"You're not five, go back to sleep" bojack said, irritated that he couldn't even sleep in peace.
The dog whines quietly, his silly nightmare affecting him. He got closer to bojack, clinging to him. The actor did try to push him off but he was surprisingly strong. He just groaned, annoyed.
Though that annoyance quickly turned into something else when Mr peanutbutter calmed down, but stayed, even getting on top of him and laying there comfortable.
"What are you doing you stupid idiot-" he said but he was cut off by him getting comfortable on him, feeling stirring feelings within him from seeing him from up close.
It didn't take long for the goofball to notice either, often picking up on things but not saying anything. He did noticed how close they were, leaning back a bit to put his hands on his shoulders, looking at him.
Now both of them were sober. But it happened way behind kissing. A long night. And a morning snuggling up. They both agreed that it wouldn't happen again.
But it happened again. Multiple times.
It did happen rarely at first, but it became more often. When they were drunk, when they weren't, when they were lonely.. though all of this was in secret. Bojack didn't want everyone to know this because obviously they were supposed to hate each other and all (bojack still was of course annoyed with what he qualified "dumbass bitch with a weird ass name"). But now.. it was different.
It wasn't the same anymore. Each time they were in a room together, they were awkward and bojack clumsily complimented Mr peanutbutter, though trying to make it sound sarcastic to not receive some bear hug by the dog if he got too excited.
But nonetheless, there was tension. Of course, the doggie was awkward too, but generally acted like usual, casual yet affectionate touches while bojack took his annoyed face, though hiding a smirk.
Once, when they were trying to listen to some Todd's speech about one of his goofy ideas, bojack wasn't listening at all, drinking again. He shoots an irrated glare at his nemesis, annoyed by Todd and his silly idea. Though before the horse knows, Mr peanutbutter shoots him a knowing glare with a smirk.
Dang.
It definitely took him off guards, nearly coughing on his drink while his eyes widened, trying to hide his obvious flustered self. I mean, his co-star only shoots him happy and goofy glares with his dumb smile, though now.. he didn't expect this. He probably did it accidentally though, at least that's what bojack told himself.
Todd pointed it out that he was acting weird, but he's so used to his friend doing weird shit that he quickly got over it while the one who started this sits there, clueless and tapping his friend's back to help him get over him nearly choking, unaware the contact made him more flustered.
After this moment, things started to go downhill. Practically everyone noticed bojack was distracted, even todd. Practically everyone commented on it but bojack just resorted to telling depressing stuff to get them to leave him alone. It worked, at least for most.
But his feelings didn't disappear.
It wasn't too surprising he would get feelings for Mr peanutbutter after sharing these intimate moments regularly secretly. Though the difference is, the dog accepted to love bojack like this, but the horse tried to push down his feelings. It didn't work. At all. It got even worse.
He did tried to admit his feeling to him. He got all pep talks in the mirror when his goofball threw a party at his house to finally admit it to him.
"Okay okay.. it's fine, just imagine him naked" bojack thought, imagining him. Though it was easy with how much moments they had while he walked to him, though slowing down.
"Fuck he's hot" bojack thought, having a deadpan expression as he gave up on admitting his feelings at that moment and got drunk instead.
The horse even started to try to ignore him. Emphasis on try. Because it's rather hard to ignore his co-star, plus when he was following him practically everywhere like a dog.
But bojack was obviously scared. He had clearly many unresolved issues. But Mr peanutbutter didn't care, he loved him like a dog. Despite his flaws.
So, after another shared moment between them, the horse accidentally slips off his feelings that he tried so hard to hide and repress.
"I love you" he said without thinking, still a bit breathless
Though he quickly realizes what he says, and the dog does too, looking at him with wide eyes and jaw dropped for a moment. Awkward silence.
"Uh.. no I don't!" Bojack said while quickly getting off the bed to run away. Run away where is the question, though at the moment he only thought to get away from this situation.
But before he can get far, Mr peanutbutter jumps off the bed, running nearly at the speed of light and practically tackling bojack into a hug.
"Doggie doggie what now?!" the dog says enthusiastically, ecstatic about this information. He just kept hugging him and nearly vibrating because of how happy he was.
His co-star grumbled, trying to hide the faint blush on his face and looking away before reluctantly returning the hug.
He could remember when he returned his hug like years ago for the first time, a long time ago. Mr peanutbutter was so happy he started jumping around, incapable to stay still.
"Oh you don't know how long I waited for this! This is just so..-" He said, nearly breaking down crying in happiness while bojack cringes.
"Don't get all excited now" he deadpans, rolling his eyes though secretly smiling.
"Does that mean we'll live in my house?! I'm so excited, I'll have your company everyday, I'll prepare breakfast in bed, play around and walk in the parc-" Mr peanutbutter started rambling enthusiastically, unable to stop, only taking breaks to breathe.
And that's it.
Then they kissed and lived happily in the dog stupid house foreva. The dog even replaced the "D" from Hollywood to "B" to mark how much he loved his alcoholic horse and they screwed. That's it bitches!
Proof they live together like a married couple:
(Therapists are scared of me)
