I sense division in this double-dutch team.

You don’t understand I saw the name and went “oh it’s just a dumb filler ep, I’ll skip it” BUT I ENDED UP WATCHING IT AND OH GOD!! I CRIED!!! The ice pop trio is so important to me bc it’s just three black kids working together, helping each other, three black kids who don’t have much in common but “hey it’s a hot summer day and we’re all alone so let’s work together���.

I feel like this episode just really reminded you what the show is really about, with all the “other creek” episodes before it you forget what the show is. It’s not kids saving the world there’s no high stakes, it’s just kids going to the corner store on a hot day and trying to make it back home in time for dinner.

Anyways I love the ice pop trio I love Craig of the creek, the nostalgia just slaps you in the face. Growing up in a black family, in a rly diverse neighborhood every scene is like “this is literally just my childhood wtf?”

it's a small thing but i love that cotc has given craig a second little friend group for him to spend time with, completely separate from kelsey and JP. it's such a simple touch of realism...

This show is an absolute gem and everyone needs to watch it

The way these three characters interact is honestly gold

Craig of the creek future wips

[nicodrawings]

OK *cracks knuckles* here we go.

1) In my AU they just stay in touch and see each other almost every weekend (I also imagine Kelsey and Craig go to the same middle school) I just imagined that they developed a close relationship and just…stayed together. Although the connection dwindles as they enter into adulthood (I would imagine that years later as adults they would rekindle their friendship after years of not talking)

2) 10 speeds dynamics switches a bit as cannonball spends less time at the creek due to him dealing with his own issues and relationship to cycling and motorcross. But they still keep in touch. Horse girls on the other hand pretty much disperse as they grow older and find their own connections with other kids. Although Melissa and Marie are still friends and in fact become very close overtime. No animosity between each other, just drifted apart.

3) Not for Zoe but for Mackenzie in my AU she’s gay (she had a huge crush in Maney for a while) I’ll give a longer list in the future but not now lol these questions fried my brain

4) That is a good question that I have not figured out yet.

5) yes, JP meets up with them sometimes/

6) No new kids more than likely , but yes to the aged up question, the littlest ones like Jessica and Chris definitely age up.

7) Possibly but I’m still unsure I would have to think on it.

8) YES! love that lil guy.

9) oooo I didn’t plan for that but that’s a lovely idea! The creek kids overtime don’t mainly stay in their “groups” and just naturally make friends with one another freely (for example Eliza and Kit becoming tight or Sewer Queen and Yustice becoming close)

10) They both just fell outta of puppy love with each other (it happens, just kid shit lol) they’re still friends tho. And yes she does!

Thank you for all the questions and your interest in my AU! Answering questions takes me while a lot cuz I have to take my time to formulate my words but I love seeing the questions ppl have about my COTC spin off AU.

I got em, you just asked me uh... a lot of questions lol. I'll get back to ya with all the answers, just gotta marinate on some of these before I answer in full.

In light of the recent news about CotC, I thought I’d share my absolute favorite line from the show.

[yoshimickster]

I dunno why, but I dig Cannonball’s vibe more than any COTC character.

He’s simultaneously extremely chill and extremely intense at the SAME time.

Angst headcannon... but also a comfort headcannon: every once in a while, Handlebarb gets a hater comment that gets under their skin and it hurts them. Fortunately, they have the other 10 Speeds who will shower them with comfort and love, and give the hater that big “back off.”

Love this 10 Speeds hurt/comfort

-

You bike like a girl! Now that one really struck a chord. Handlebarb felt frozen to the spot as they watched the hater walk away with a smirk. The 10 Speeds gasped as they saw tears begin to run down Handlebarb's face.

Warpspeed marched to the hater. "You can't talk to our friend like that!"

Todd added, "Get outta here and never come back, before we make sure you never go anywhere again!"

The hater grimaced, quickening his pace. As he retreated, all the 10 Speeds crowded around Handlebarb to hug them. "Don't let anyone invalidate you," Cannonball told them.
