#bowser's like 'why tf are you here in MY kingdom'

[mrs-luigi-vargas]

got vaguely inspired tonight w/ a new fic idea and unfortunately for me I cannot put Bowser and Mario (and Peach) in the same room getting along without some sort of crisis happening, for some reason

Say, do you reckon Princess Peach & Judy Hopps would get along? Same with Mario & Nick?

First of all I want you all to know just how much I screamed and kicked my feet when I got this ask because OH MY GODDDDD you’re asking me to combine my two favorite hyperfixations??? AAAA I could literally cry😭😭

I know some people are probably thinking ‘how tf would these characters even interact’ and to that I say, there is so much potential here!! Honestly it’s not completely unlikely that they would ever meet. I mean, the Mario world already features talking turtles and mushrooms and sentient bombs; why not throw an anthropomorphized bunny and fox into the mix?

Gotta say, I think @pianokantzart’s animal AU would be excellent for this scenario though! If we wanna lean more towards Zootopia-verse’s lore (in which humans don’t exist) then having Mario and Peach meet them in their tanooki forms would be just perfect!

As for the actual interaction itself, I do think Judy and Peach would get along! They’re both very optimistic despite constantly being thrown curveballs at every given opportunity. Peach would greatly admire Judy’s bravery and determination, and would openly express how incredible she is for all that she’s done for her career and her boyfriend, Nick. I also think Judy would just be absolutely starstruck around Peach. I mean, how often does one get to hang out with a literal princess?? She’d gradually become more comfortable around her, but would still have the sense to refer to her by her royal status, especially in front of others.

Mario and Nick? Well, I’d say yes to them getting along.. but maybe not right away😆 I’m not saying they’d be outright rude to each other, but they wouldn’t exactly become instant besties like their girls. They’d probably just need some more time to get used to each other to really hit it off. But once they move past the barrier of awkward small talk, I’d say they’d be pretty good friends! Mario’s naturally a very friendly individual, and Nick has that sense of humor that just clicks with most people. Their vibes may be different, but that just what would make their friendship so unique!

I can totally see all four of them hanging out and having the absolute time of their lives😌 I can see them showing each other their worlds; Judy and Nick taking them on a tour around the city, as well as Mario and Peach showing them around the Mushroom Kingdom and maybe even introducing them to their other friends like Luigi and the Toads. (Slight tangent but I am just dying at the thought of Judy n Nick encountering Bowser💀 bc in their world it’s a mammal-only society so the sight of a giant talking turtle that breathes fire would just leave them like🤔😶)

This is a genius idea. I hope y’all are taking notes✍️👀😉
