IT'S ACE DAY, WOOO- [whoopsies procrastination 🤭]

I started this yesterday and was gonna post it for Ace Day, but then I didn't have the energy to finish all of it, so, yeah. Take this headcanon a day late >:]

I'm so self-indulgent with all of these characters. I find it hard to imagine characters that aren't ace, so I guess it's not really a surprise lmao. Like, I was looking at my character database, and I realized that a good half of these guys are on the Aro or Ace spectrum:

[including my aro people here too because I can >:]]

Buster - Gay, Asexual Eddie - Pan, Greysexual Charley - Aroace Meena - Bi, Asexual Gunter - Pan, Aromantic Mike - Bi, Aromantic Judith - Lesbian, Greyromantic Porsha - Bi, Demisexual Nooshy - Aroace

It's like a decent half of them. :p

[bonus]

Adorable and lovely little Jane as Benesta in Charley Moon, released on May 1st, 1956. ❤️🌻

Charley (I think that's his name? Is that a fanon thing?) would be the most supporting dad in the world. I have this idea that when Buster was figuring out his sexuality (around 11-15), he came out to his dad, and his dad just hugged him and was very supportive and aaaaa!

Random Moon Theatre Headcanons

Yes, there is a theatre ghost. Yes, they all have theories on who it is. Yes, they do all leave stuff out for said ghost on holidays/during big events.

The troupe kept stealing parts of costumes that they liked so often that Buster made sweatshirts that said "I stole this from the New Moon Theatre Costume Department"... and all of those were gone within a week. They all wear them now as a kind of badge of honor.

The first line of merch that came from the theatre was handmade by the troupe and is the main decoration backstage.

After hearing Buster talk to the building as if it was alive, the rest of the troupe started doing it too. They continued doing this at the Majestic, much to the confusion of everyone there.

The theatre has a nickname, Luna, that the troupe use when addressing the building (the one for the Majestic is Maggie).

The dressing rooms are constantly covered in a bizarre mix of random quotes that were scribbled down and polaroid photos that make it hard to see the walls.

Every month the troupe holds a cleaning day where they deep clean the entire theatre and redo the flower boxes out front. This always ends in a family dinner at Nana's.

There is a list of theatre rules and superstitions posted backstage with annotations from the troupe so that visitors (namely their families) don't slip up.

The theatre building is listed as a historic site in Catalonia and tours frequently stop there. In summer, there is typically water sitting out for them and anyone who needs it. Same with blankets and winter clothes when it gets cold.

Charley Crockett 🎶 Killers of the Flower Moon"

[artsolarsash]

Hey cinnamon rolls, how are you? I’m making the fourth page for this comic, and still, it doesn’t have a name yet. This comic is not a cannon,and some of pages can have mistakes of art and grammar. This is a prototype and maybe the design of OC, and location might be changed. I have many ideas of how it will continue but the problem is that I don’t have an idea of the beginning.

I read @ayyy-imma-ninja mini comic about Sundrop, Moondrop, and Lunar. It was amazing I can’t wait for the continuation of the story. She inspired me to draw the Fairy AU comic and create Charley Moore aka my OC. For the first time I drew the third page, and later the first page (how confusing wasn’t sound), but for some reason I thought that maybe people will don’t like it and maybe I should leave this idea.

When I showed to my uncle my first page, he liked it and advised to post it, which I did it. Few hours later, I saw many notes and people liked it, even one person said that Charley is pretty, thank you @emrystheblue. I’m trying to keep @ayyy-imma-ninja character’s’ personality, abilities, and not breaking a cannon.

Right now I’m making a story board and still figuring it out about the beginning of the story, which it will be a mystery with investigation, supernatural, and little bit of horror (sorry for spoilers) I really hope that you will like this comic, if not I will understand and will try to fix it.

Thank you @ayyy-imma-ninja for inspiring me and thank you to my family and friends for supporting me in my art experience.

Might make a page on my carrd for my birds

IT'S THE BOYYYY, MY [deceased ;-;] BOY-

My heart hurts whenever I write about him I'm gonna cry but he's so perfect to me you have no idea

Ok, so, I have written so much on this man because of how overly complicated I made Buster's entire family situation. But I can't. Share. A single. Crumb. Of. It. And it's killing me. Guys, I'm dying. I'm simply gonna perish if I don't write about him. So. I'm gonna headcanon dump, heehee :> [gonna do this with a bunch of other characters once I get art for them going ~_~] [I look at my drafts and weep-]

TD!Charley:

Age: 47 [deceased] Height: 3' 02" [96cm] Male - He/Him Sexuality: Aroace Build: H A T

The name is a headcanon in itself. Charley. He was never given a real canon name for whatever reason.

It just felt like it fit

Oh boy,

Ok, heavy lore time-

TW: Mentions of religious trauma and [briefly] kidnapping

[there's a fluff tab if you're wanting to skip all that]

So for a quick lore-dump, there was a HUGE war between the different animals [mammals, reptiles, and birds being the most prominent groups] that lasted from 1903-1955, before finally cutting off because a bunch of animals had practically gone extinct

Koalas being one of them

And Charley was born in late 1956, right after the war had ended, so yeah. Generational trauma's real rough-

Plus his hometown [all Koalas btw] was extremely religious and controlling over him, and he wasn't even allowed to buy his own clothes until he started to carve out his own life in Calatonia

The only thing they let him do was play music, usually with the idea that he'd be playing for the church band

[which he never did]

He was set up on arranged dates, made to feel like he was wrong for not wanting a relationship, and ridiculed for his desire to have a different life in the city- along with a lot of other things I probably couldn't fit into this post

He has a sister, Holly Moon, who is 4 years younger than him, who was seen as a golden child because she always listened and did everything their parents asked

[Parents being Darrick and Kara, for more TD lore]

He had a horrible family life before sprinting away at age 18 to Calatonia to hopefully make it big

This is where he met animals who weren't Koalas for the first time

Let me reiterate that- first time

[he'd read about other animals and seen what a few of them looked like in pictures, but never the real thing]

He learned the true meaning behind the words his family always spoke

"Make a family, there aren't many of us left"

Yeah, he was the only Koala in Calatonia for a good minute

Which kinda sent him spiraling-

Imaging you growing up in a small gated community, where you're a human around other humans, and then you leave and find out that there aren't any humans left and the rest of the world has been populated by aliens or something

He was very curious at first, which got him into some trouble

He met Harry after almost getting poached/getting ganged up on and almost kidnapped. Harry saved him, took him to calm down at his restaurant for the night, and the two quickly became friends

Ok, fluff time

Meeting Harry for the first time, the thing he offered Charley was a sandwich, which would start Charley's "give sandwich = I care about you" thing

Like his go-to way of making friends after this encounter would be to meet somewhere for sandwiches

It became a comfort food, and an introduction into other flavors besides the basic food groups + eucalyptus

This little quirk got passed down to Buster

Amazing cook

Like, he invented a couple of the recipes on the menu at Harry's Bar [despite having a diet of mostly eucalyptus, which is poisonous]

Even back in his hometown with his limited ingredients, he was fantastic, but after learning that there were other foods, he got a little obsessed

He has a cookbook he put together [which got passed down to Buster, who cannot cook for the life of him lmao]

Harry tried to get him to go to culinary school or something, but Charley always insisted on loving his little bundle of odd jobs in Calatonia [including the carwash, which was his baby]

After coming to Calatonia, making his home in a shady little apartment complex [which he ABSOLUTELY ADORED], getting a job, and finally getting his first-ever paycheck, he immediately went thrifting

Which is where he got his raggedy hat and patchy coat

And learned what a turtleneck was

He taught Buster the art of thrifting too :D

He dresses like he's homeless by choice [mostly]

[money's always tight]

Back to the odd jobs that he got instead of getting a real job- Charley always hated "luxurious" things if that makes sense. Not only did it remind him of home, but he's just a minimalist in general

If he doesn't need it, he won't take it

Modest guy [opposite to his entire family ~_~]

The hat is kinda a symbol of his independence and freedom in a way, so that's a little sweet

He never takes his hat or coat off really, even in the hot summer days in Calatonia

Harry always has to remind him to drink water [woah, Koala moment]

Oh yeah, Koala stuff-

Harry ends up helping out Charley with the complete lack of Eucalyptus products in Calatonia by ordering it in with his usual imported restaurant food, and then just giving it to him

Harry insists on paying for it all, despite Charley's objections

Charley always gives monstrous tips when eating at Harry's to balance things out

He's actually pretty tall for a Koala

He made good friends with all of the waiters and staff and musicians at Harry's, and was always there for the music nights where Harry'd get someone to play atmospheric stuff on stage

You see this in the first movie

Charley's actually really great on the guitar, and has a very nice voice [I don't have a voice claim yet ;-;;;;;] so he was eventually given the offer to try playing in front of a crowd at Harry's. Which he took

[And Harry made him take money for it, of course]

Had no intention to have kids, but ended up taking in Buster due to family drama and strange circumstances [later explained in Tone Deaf] [also why they have different funky patterns btw! :DDD]

Please, it's so complicated-

He quickly fell in love with the idea of show business after seeing some street performers, and eventually got over his discomfort with doing illegal things [the idea of it being a sin really had him in a chokehold for a while-] and grew into his true personality of "very chill and very shady charlatan" after a few years away from his hometown

Actually, it was his urge to steal a ticket to see a show at the theater that drove him to get over it all

Learned how to pick locks and pockets to scrounge around enough money to get by

Charley and Harry were best friends. Practically brothers

To the point of Harry being called "uncle Harry" by young Buster

Charley was the best man at Harry's wedding to his Panda wife, Claire. Buster was given the honor of being both the flower boy and ring bearer lmao [he pulled it off]

Claire definitely mothered both Charley and Buster quite a bit

Back to Charley living in the apartment complex, he made good friends with an old Lizard who lived next door-

Yeah, Miss Crawley [Irene Crawley]

After Harry realized that Buster was an absolute demon child, Charley tried asking her to babysit instead

She must've had the magic touch or something, because he was perfectly behaved with her

Harry was speechless

Buster was absolutely a problem child, and Charley would frequently get calls from school about him [especially in elementary]

[half of the trouble he got into was due to bullies, but this ain't about him 🤭]

Charley taught Buster how to commit crime, and play guitar

And when he got older, the two would duet together at Harry's

[I'm crying it's so sweet]

Crawley would always bring homemade candies around to give to Buster when she came over to visit with Charley, specifically Turkish Delight

She eventually taught him [with lots of hand-holding] how to make the candy himself. If left alone, he'd just set things on fire and eat the chocolate chips plain though :D

She lost her lover in the war, and even before that, struggled with infertility problems [they were different species- working with the idea of a Gila Monster] so she never had any of the children she had wanted before the war basically ruined her life

She adored that child and never accepted pay

[she was paid by the government anyway since she was a war vet]

All of the money that Charley would slip into her pocket, she'd either secretly give right back, or spend it all on Buster

She was like a mother to him

Still is

She offered to help with the theater after Charley realized that the place didn't just come with staff

Charley and Buster's bond was basically unbreakable

Charley would always stand up to the school system whenever they treated Buster unjustly

[Trust me, there was a lot of prejudice against Koalas and other endangered species, no matter how small or harmless they seemed. People fear what they don't know, and to say Koalas are an oddity would be an understatement-]

[Like even irl, they're Marsupials, sure- but they're so different that they've been given a classification all to themselves called Phascolarctidae. They're so alone in the animal kingdom, it's not even funny. Their closest "relative" is the Wombat, and even then barely]

[Give me another animal that's even remotely similar to Koalas appearance-wise. Their facial structure, the double-thumbs, massive ears, the fact that they can only eat one thing, and it's poisonous [catch me writing Buster poisoning someone with eucalyptus >:D]- yeah, they're super interesting to work with. And of course, I give them hardships for it ~_~]

[Everyone that saw Buster and Charley just immediately knew they were endangered just because of how alien they looked]

["freaks"]

[They just rolled with it]

[Well, Buster was always bothered by it, but Charley was always there to tell him that it should be something to be proud of. Didn't always work all the way]

[I'll talk about Buster later, don't you worry]

[Ok enough with the gushing about Koala facts in brackets-]

Buster would also stand up for Charley during family gatherings [which they eventually just stopped going to entirely] because Charley would just freeze up and not say anything whenever people started fighting with him

✨trauma✨

The two protected each other is my point pretty much

Ok, for a rough timeline:

[1903 - 1955] - Great War [1956] - Charley was born [1960] - Holly was born [1974] - Charley ran away to Calatonia [1980] - Buster was born [1988] - Charley took Buster in [1990] - Harry meets Claire [1994] - Harry and Claire get married [1997] - Theater was sold to Charley and quickly opened [2003] - Charley is killed

It's fucking tragic how he dies

Like, him and Buster were literally in the middle of planning the show when Buster got the call

Late too

He couldn't get to the landline at first because he was busy with set design, and actually saw it a LOT later, which- yeah. Cue horrific amounts of stress as he bikes as fast as he can to the ER

"Where's dad!??" he's in the hospital bucko

Why must I kill all the characters I love-

Charley'd just gone out to get some supplies from like, home depot or something, and then yeah. Dead

Buster could never finish the show, so it sits collecting dust in the attic now

Grief made him unable to write much, which is how he eventually went into debt too

The whole thing with them is absolutely tragic, oh boy-

Can't wait to draw the funeral scene

Ok, so I keep forgetting what's been posted and what's still a draft, so sorry if something just- absolutely jumps out of nowhere here. I think I've mentioned the war before? And Poachers- I hope I at least mentioned Poachers-

Well, if you didn't know before, you do now ''':D

Thanks for reading

Charley Crockett: Killers of the Flower Moon (Official Video)

[karapaints]

Been looking at a lot of Charley Harper & Mary Blair lately and this little duo just sort of tumbled onto the page over the last few evenings. I don’t know if they’ll make it onto product, but they were super fun to paint.

[hoperays-song]

Do you have any Buster and Eddie high school headcanons? I would love to hear your thoughts on the matter.

Ooooo that you so much for the ask! I love the idea of Buster and Eddie knowing each other during high school so I have a few! I hope you enjoy! - <3 Gooseless

-------------------------------------

Eddie went to Buster's Bat Mitzvah and sat in the front row next to Charley during the ceremony.

They had joint custody of prize they won together at a fair and would pass it back and forth during classes.

Buster always brought posters to Eddie's swim meets to cheer.

Eddie would always trade whatever fancy food he'd been given for lunch with the junk food Buster had.

Buster did the most elaborate prom-posal in their entire school, complete with a really bad pun.

They met in a theatre class (Buster worked stage crew and Eddie's parents forced him to take it).

Eddie stayed with Buster and Charley a lot because it felt homey there.

Buster would drag Eddie on adventures every weekend.

They watched movies and shows every day together at lunch on Eddie's phone.

Eddie was the one who introduced Mrs. Crawly and Buster and watched first hand as she took on a mother role for him.

Buster signed Eddie up for the first ever video game tournament he ever did their junior year as a way of stress relief.

Overall, they were just the epitome of high school sweethearts. Very much Micheal and Jeremy from Be More Chill at times.
