Pipe Lion

There is good news and bad news.

The good news is that I can fight Pipe Lion (the name of the Giant enemy) THAT FRICKIN ATE MY MOM AND MENTOR.

Sigh.

For some reason a lot of people from my adventure were here.

Captain scurvy was trying to make a profit on some of the stolen goods.

Daisy was there taking charge

The beanish family were championing me.

Alice was threatening to shoot Pipe Lion

Ricardo and Mario's family we're trying to keep calm.

Miyamoto had that weird screen thingy he uses trying to figure out what was going on.

Rosalina and Egadd were the most notable.

They had given me a new weapon.

The warp staff

It's some weapon that uses pure warp energy to create concentrated blasts.

The only other thing similar to this was made by a guy in the '70s after drinking a lava lamp. He was discovered on an entirely different Island from where he apparently was last seen with no clothes, a yogurt container, and something he called a "boom tube"

I knew what I had to do. Fight.

@shootysturs / @poyo-shooty-art Drew this boss fight in the art style of Mario and Luigi.

That thing is actually a lot more huge than it's presented here though.

It was a pretty standard fight.

I managed to defeat it after shooting large blast of energy that builds up while dodging it's attacks.

The weird thing is that my mom and Mario didn't leave its mouth.

Now for the bad news

It looks like I might have to...

Go in.

Fun Fact: This line actually got censored after the first airing of this episode (I believe the episode is, "Legend of the Crystal Coconut", right?). In airings after the first airing, and in the horrendous Legend of the Crystal Coconut ''movie'', the "may he rot in hell" is replaced with Skurvy's laugh (Though, if you listen hard enough, you can still apparently hear his original "may he rot in hell" line)! It wasn't until the Season 1 DVD was released that the edit to the was apparently removed. Though since they censored this, I'm surprised they didn't censor/remove Skurvy's somewhat disturbing part of one of his lines in "Booty and the Beast" ("In the name of me great-great-grandpappy, Captain Scurvy, may maggots ravage his rotten remains"). Perhaps Nelvana simply weren't able to censor it due to not enough budget, time or they probably just didn't care after firing the original staff of writers

The Story That Will Never Be Told 6: Guest Stars

This one will be a thread, several reblogs detailing each different Celebrity Cameo. And to start us off, my favorite of these special guest stars; The Kremling Krew!

This band of crocodile pirates hails from the RareWare-age of the Donkey Kong franchise, originally appearing in Donkey Kong Country and going on to be the villains of the whole series along with one of my favorite games of all, DK64. They were under the command of the infamous King K Rool and first sailed to the Kong Isles aboard the battleship, Gangplank Galleon, until Donkey and Diddy thrashed him and sunk his ship. Their home island was sunk by Diddy and Dixie Kong (admittedly by accident) when they defeated K Rool a second time, leaving the Kremlings adrift in scattered clans. Although K Rool returned for the 3rd DKC game, he had to do so in disguise because the Kremlings were actually sick of him. His infamous Blast-O-Matic in DK64 was the last time he and the Kremlings got a major appearance in anything and it was disabled whilst K Rool was sent flying into the ocean again.

And from then onwards, the Kremlings and K Rool never got a proper appearance in any mainline games.

They were in a similar boat as Waluigi; designed by a 3rd-party that was working with Nintendo instead of Nintendo itself (Camelot actually devised Waluigi, the Kremlings and all the Kongs post-arcade era were by Rare). Ergo a bit of a debate on Nintendo's end if they kept any of these characters around, Diddy and a few other Kongs got to persist thanks to their popularity. But the Kremlings? Nintendo wasn't keen on them appearing again in a mainline game until Smash Ultimate.

Of all the guest-stars I had planned, the Kremlings were the first. They have such a rich roster of a crocodile cast across the 90s, a bunch of delightfully devious lunkheads determined to one day get even with the Kongs. And what's more, I even had that wonderful DKC tv show to draw inspiration from and provide a leader that was significantly more popular amongst his underlings; Kaptain Skurvy.

The history in my continuity was thus; DKC 1-DK64, with a light sprinkling of the tv show, happened as they canonically did. The Kremlings that you've gotten to meet in my fic are but one of many small factions, this crew of crocs led by Quint Skurvy the Fifth. Thanks to how tyrannical AND disasterous K Rool's leadership was in the past, Klubba led a mutiny aboard the Gangplank Galleon, deserting the former Kremling King with his prized battleship (as an aside, Klubba is from DKC2, a powerful Kremling that actually helps out Diddy and Dixie as "K Rool treats us rotten, I hope ye scuttle his plans"). Once at sea, the crew held an election for a captain (pirates in actual history were democratic), Skurvy winning the vote and he has been in command ever since. He's led them to great profits and spoils of war, earning genuine loyalty from the Kremlings under his flag.

What brings the Kremlings to Hyrule actually stems to the original Quint Skurvy, the current one's great-great-great-grandfather. He had obtained the legendary Crystal Coconut, but was betrayed by his navigator. The navigator, a man history refers to as "The Ancient Mariner" had stolen the Crystal Coconut, hiding it in distant shores from Crocodile Isle. When Skurvy caught up with the traitor, he threw him into a pine box and hurtled it overboard. Ever since, the SKurvies have hunted for the Crystal Coconut, the current of their lineage the first to sail Hyrule's waters.

For the Yiga battle, the Kremlings would actually have been allied with the Gerudo and our protagonists as they mistook the Yiga for the Kongs. They reveal that the Gangplank Galleon has an All-Terrain mode, allowing it to leave the water and assault the Yiga Stronghold itself. Upon finding out that "the death cult of assassins are not the gorillas they've a blood feud with", the Kremlings decide to just loot the stronghold of everything and leave. From there, that would've been the end of their little arc.

At least, until I watched this AMAZING video;

Then I thought up a soft-sequel for the fic. Running with the vid's plot, K Rool is able to reunite the Kremlings under his rule once more. After hearing from Klump, Skurvy's brother and K Rool's former supreme commander, about the wonderous lands across an ocean that no Kremling or Kong have sailed before, K Rool decides that salvaging whatever magic and technology they can from Hyrule might finally give him the edge over the Kongs.

And thus a decade or so after my fic's conclusion, Hyrule recieves word of a massive battle fleet sailing for the kingdom, led by a mobile island fortress that resembles a crocodile wearing a crown.

And of final note, you know who Quint Skurvy the First's navigator is. Submit your answer to me Askbox to recieve the special prize of choosing the next Lore Post!

Ideas for episodes for the cancelled Banjo-Kazooie TV show

It's a shame that the show never happened, but I can always dream!

So here's some potential ideas for episodes that would've been cool to see!

An episode were Banjo & Kazooie's friendship is challenged when Kazooie realizes that Banjo doesn't know a whole lot about her, so after another encounter with Grunty, Banjo then remembers things about Kazooie, surprising her, he even remembers her favourite film!

A flashback episode showing Mumbo when he was Grunty's teacher, and how she turned on him and gave him the skull for a head.

A pirate-themed episode where Banjo & Kazooie help Captain Blubber out with searching for some treasure, all while taking down Captain Blackeye, who wants the treasure for himself, perhaps the trio sing a pirate song, very similar to Skurvy's songs in the Donkey Kong TV show.

Banjo goes out with Bottles and the others, leaving Kazooie to babysit his sister Tooty, Kazooie is annoyed and doesn't bother with her, but after they both start talking to each other, and even with Tooty telling Kazooie that she's like the sister she never had, the two start to get along.

The duo get a letter that they've been offered roles to star in a movie, after they heard about their heroic adventures, meaning that the bear and bird are going Hollywood! Or are they?

A talent show is being held in the Isle O Hags, and everyone's hoping to win, even Grunty joins in, the duo try to come up with a good act to win, even arguing and putting a strain on their friendship, which results in Tooty trying to get the duo back together before the show and make them friends again.

Since I imagine that the show would've been non canon to the main series, Grunty's two sisters come to visit, in which the trio attempt to ruin Banjo & Kazooie's day, but the duo hilariously end up ruining their day instead.

Maybe some episodes where more obscure and forgotten characters appear and interact with the duo (Brentilda, Canary Mary, Bullion Bill & Dilberta, etc..)

I might make a part 2 because my mind is just full of ideas, and it's fun! Also I imagine that the show would have songs too!

[runningskaven]

Now I'm imagining her as a captain of one of clan skurvy's dead whale boats.

So what you are saying is I need another AU that only gets asks once in a blue moon? XD

But I could see it, light leather armour so she don't sink, clothes made from the flags of ships she has boarded and sunk. Pistol in one paw, cutlass in the other.

Be interesting, but I doubt I will dedicate an AU to it.

Also she would not stop eating the ship, bad captain.

[butchbarneygumble]

Alestorm is like if Captain Skurvy was allowed to swear

[captainacorn95]

With? I think Captain Syrup, due to her having a wide variety of crewmembers, considering every Wario game where she is the villain

Without? It’s a tough call, as even though Skurvy is more physically Powerful, Syrup definitely has plenty of tricks, so it really depends on who’s more prepared

Who would you think would win a fight, both with or without their pirate ships and pirate crews.

Season one, episode seventeen

Legend of the Crystal Coconut

[ask-marios-apprentice]

Of Kong's and kremlins.

I think i I may have met two incredibly stupid entities today.

Cranky Kong and King K Rool.

I swear I think I might have also seen Nora today.

Let me start from the beginning.

After being warped onto the Congo bongo peninsula's Beach. I had to do a platforming challenge based on using honey in order to patch up a set of bridges.

Then I ended up getting captured by Captain Skurvy. CAPTAIN of the Kremlin Krew.

He was planning a heist to steal the Crystal Coconut.

Apparently it's been in his family since his ancestor got it from the god Inka Dinka doo

They would let me go if I would help them get into the secret banana stash where the coconut was being held.

Tomorrow would be the prime opportunity since defense would be at the wrestling match.

Truth be told. The whole Kong versus kremmling thing is less of a political dispute and more of a family rivalry between the Kong family (not Kong species) and the kremmling Royal family.

It's kind of gone to the point where they have chimps, kremlins, and apes on both sides.

It's kind of crappy. Like Hatfields and McCoys or Montague's and Capulets.

Really dumb ain't it.

So if they were going to let me go. I had to drop in and create a big distraction.

I found a large coconut tree with a treehouse inside of it. It was right on top of the arena.

I was hanging out there waiting for it to begin. When of all people showed up.

NORA!!!

I don't know how in the underwear she got here. I could probably guess on why she's here but not how she got here.

I tried to chase her. But she actually caught the feet of a Squawks.

I don't know where the Underwhere she is now but it's far away from the Congo Bongo Peninsula.

Now where was I.

I ended up causing a distraction by explaining to them that this entire feud is stupid. I can't really remember what I said I was just kind of angry about the whole situation. But everyone seem to be dazed or something.

I ended up just sort of walking out. No one really cared that a human just fell out of the sky and told them that a tradition sucks.

I met up with Captain Skurvy. It turns out that there was no Crystal Coconut as it was being taken to be polished for a museum exhibit in a few months. They ended up just sort of stealing a bunch of bananas. Something you can just get off the trees. You can like buy a bunch just for a gold coin.

Surprisingly there was also a warp orbital there. So I got that.

I don't think I'll be coming back to the island for a while.

I'm just kind of frustrated.

Garth signing off.

Amid her shenanigans and “pirate business”, Captain Wreckage needs to remind herself of the peace the sea brings her.

Of course have to get some rest; the pitching and tossing of the sea perfectly rock her to sleep like a baby.

Being perfectly rested is just what’s needed to stand tall and face down that skurvy Flameheart and show him who’s boss on the sea of theives. 

[welegi]

captain skurvy sends his regards!
