The portrait of Isobel's parents was supposed to be a portrait of Aylin and Ketheric 'standing side-by-side in a somewhat austere way':

A follow up to my post about Isobel's parents' portrait, I found these in the parsed datamined dialogues shared by roksik-dnd:

In the game files, this item's name is still connected to Aylin:

However, when spawned in-game, it's definitely about Ketheric and Melodia. Here's the description of the portrait in-game:

TL;DR: Isobel is a 'magical photographer', and, originally, there was a time she made her girlfriend and her father pose for a picture.

The Girlies

Suddenly noticed people have been counting and gif setting the Buddie hugs in canon and immediately jumped to comparing it to Xena and how we have gif sets of their kisses. These women kiss! On the mouth! Xena grabs Gabby's ass during one! Another is her giving Gabby True Love's Kiss to wake her from a sleeping spell!

And Xena/Gabrielle is somehow "not canon"

I think my new headcanon for my latest playthrough of veilguard is that it's just one big poly relationship, Curi is dating Davrin (the character I'm gonna romance in game) but she's also dating Spite, so that means she's also dating Lucanis becasue you can't have one without the other, but Lucanis is also dating Neve, and I'm also really liking the idea of Curi dating Bellara becasue those two are cute together.

and Harding doesn't die so her and Taash can be happy together. and of course Emmrich is happy with Strife.

in another show I could see tammy x zeke and jimmy jr x jocelyn being more of a Thing within the show and the fandom (and they did a little bit of that in the very VERY early seasons) but jocelyn and jimmy jr is like comical now. theyre SOOO siblings there's nothing romantic going on between them even a little bit. doesn't help that they've known each other since forever. I dont think zeke is tammy's type either after she got to know him. instead neither of them really seem interested in the boys and tina gets both of them all to herself :)

I think my mutuals are onto something when they say Komaru is often made the object the relationship when shipped with Toko.

Silly little Oz AU

I wanted to create something silly for Spooky Season, so I did.

(Click for better quality)

Leonardo is not Dorothy. The idea is that this would be like an actual episode of the show; he'd get Wizard of Oz'd into, well, Oz, and the episode would play out like an abridged and heavily toned down version of the The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900). Which in turn means that the others are not the other three Turtles, either. They are, however, styled after and voiced by the other three. So, instead of saying something like "Donatello", I'll either use "Donatello-as-the-Tin-Woodman" or simply "the Tin Woodman" (which of course also applies to the other two).

The idea of the Scarecrow, the most intelligent character in the main cast in the book, speaking like Michelangelo does in the show was too funny not to implement!

I imagine the dialogue in the scene where Leonardo and Kiki meet him would go something akin to:

“I'm going to the Emerald City to find the wizard to help me back to New York.” “You suppose that wizard dude could give me some brains?" "Yeah, I'm sure he can!" "Mondo tubuloso!”

Not sure if I want Leonardo to be outed as knowing the fact that the wizard is a fraud, though...

I put Leonardo in the silver shoes from the book, since I heavily doubt anyone would've cared for fighting MGM for the rights to use the ruby slippers. On Discord while sketching, we did joke that I could put him in silver Birkenstocks or ruby Crocs. Sadly, Crocs weren't invented until 2002 😔

I debated a lot who to cast who as. Leonardo in the role of Dorothy and Raphael as the Cowardly Lion were easy enough, but which one of the other two brothers to cast as the Scarecrow and Tin Woodman? Both Michelangelo and Donatello work for either, since the book characters' main traits are intelligence and empathy respectively, but I finally settled on the casting that I did. Like mentioned above, the Scarecrow with Michelangelo's speech pattern is absolutely hilarious, but I don't think that Donatello-as-the-Tin-Woodman's hilarity should be understated, either; especially since his canon name when he was human (turtle?) was Nick Chopper, which does fit Donatello's general strategy of repairing things in the TV show by hitting or kicking machines strangely well.

While sketching, I also joked that Raphael-as-the-Cowardly-Lion looks like Raphael just finished a Cats the musical rehearsal but hadn't told anyone and just got busted sneaking back into the Lair. I also accidentally coloured him piss yellow when I coloured the flats, which I suppose is fair. Yellow is actually a colour associated with cowardice (even though the Lion wasn't actually a coward at all, but we'll set that aside).

Speaking of colouring mishaps, when colouring the Tin Woodman's base colour, I decided to look up images of tin to find a good rough match. Well, it then hit me to double check whether tin actually does rust or not. And guess what, it doesn't. Thus, I got around the problem by making his bolts, screws and joints made of iron instead. He has to rust somehow; you cannot have a Wizard of Oz "adaptation" without [Dorothy] and the Scarecrow oiling him upon meeting him.

The Toto situation was a tricky one, since TMNT isn't really known for its prevalence of dogs. The only actual noteworthy canine characters I can think of in any iteration are Rahzar and Dogpound, and as funny as it would've been for me to cast Rahzar as Toto, truth be told I had honestly forgotten him and Tokka even existed in the cartoon. I briefly considered having April be Toto (somehow), but I refused to entertain that idea even more than I already had. Instead, I got around the Toto problem by just drawing a dog (here a Scottish terrier, like how I pictured Toto in my head) and then renaming it. And thus, Kiki! And I love her.

Also, fun fact, the Scarecrow actually wore blue in the book!
