~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~°~❦~°~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Where’s Anthony?”

You turned to Angela, who’d asked the question. She set her bag down on a chair next to you and pulled out her phone.

“He’s not supposed to be here until after Moose Master,” Shayne answered her, looking up from his couch.

“I thought you guys were supposed to shoot the whole ‘we bought Smosh’ video this morning,” she said. “Moose Master isn’t until this afternoon.

“Moose Master’s in like ten minutes,” you told her.

“Dammit, I knew I shouldn’t have just skimmed the schedule!” She cursed, grabbing her things and running, probably towards hair and makeup.

You rolled your eyes at her back, smiling. You loved Angela, but you couldn’t deny she could be clueless sometimes.

Shayne turned to you, “So, you exited to meet Anthony?”

“I’m excited to see what all the hype’s about,” you said.

You had begun working at Smosh exactly three months ago and you hadn’t known who Anthony was until very recently.

But since Ian and Anthony had bought Smosh, he was all anyone was talking about. The cast members who were around before Anthony left had been sharing stories about him all week.

Most of your coworkers had already met him—or, been reacquainted with him—at a meeting him and Ian had held after it was announced that they were buying their company back.

You, unfortunately, had called in sick that day, and had yet to come face to face with him.

All you knew was that Anthony was Ian’s best friend who he’d started this company with. That he’d left a few years back. And that now he was rejoining Smosh as one of the owners.

Today was going to be Anthony’s first official day back on set, and you were looking forward to finally meeting him.

“You’re gonna love him, trust me.”

Shayne’s voice brought you out of your thoughts and you stood up, checking your watch.

“You wanna head over for Who Meme’d It?” You asked him, realizing you only had a quarter of an hour.

“I guess I could suit up,” Shayne answered, nodding and walking towards the entryway.

You began walking with him down the hall and towards the Who Meme’d It set when you realized—

“Crap, I forgot my glasses!” you exclaimed. “I’ll catch up with you in a few.”

“Good idea, wouldn’t want you pulling an Angela,” Shayne joked as you turned and hustled in the other direction.

Your glasses were in your bag, halfway across the building. Even though you had become accustomed to the layout of Smosh after a few months there, you still didn’t know the studio like the back of your hand yet—maybe like the back of your ring finger.

You picked up your pace to a jog, passing office after office and set after set.

You rounded a corner, seeing the hall that led to the room that held your belongings.

You slowed down only a little as you pushed open the door to your final destination and—

Slam!

The door stopped mid-open as its momentum was stopped by the object you had hit with the door.

No, not object. Person.

You heard a cry from the other side of the door and you rushed through the doorway.

“I am so sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was going,” you hurried out, seeing a man on his back as he pushed himself up from the ground.

“I forgive you, but my nose might not,” the man said, letting out a wry chuckle.

You offered him your hand and he took it, pulling himself to a standing position.

“But,” he said, “no real damage done.”

Now that he was standing in front of you, you got a good look at the man.

And wow.

He was wearing a long-sleeved black silk shirt and gray slacks, his outfit hugging his tall, toned frame. His hair was tousled, no doubt from making contact with the ground, and a curl fell onto his forehead.

You couldn’t believe you’d whacked someone so attractive with a door.

You caught yourself staring and quickly cleared your throat, looking around the room.

“Well,” you said, “I was coming in here to get my glasses, and I guess I need them more than I thought. Sorry again for attacking you.”

The man laughed, “Don’t worry about it. You just made my day that much more exciting.”

You smiled. “I, uh, don’t remember seeing you at work before. Are you new here?”

You were standing here, trying not to blush from the embarrassment of what you’d just done and from the way he was looking intently into your eyes—you might as well try to get to know the man.

An amused look passed over his face and his eyes danced with an inside joke that you didn’t quite get.

“You could say that, yeah. I guess you could say it’s my first day here at Smosh”

Great, you thought. His first day and this was how he was greeted.

“Well, welcome to Smosh,” you gestured around you at the scene that had just played out. “We have one hell of a welcome committee.”

“I’ll say,” the man said, his eyes roaming over you before landing on your eyes.

Now it was impossible to stop the heat from flooding your cheeks, you only hoped he had the good grace to pretend not to notice.

“So, um,” you got out, “are you cast or crew?”

“Both,” the man said, after a minute, “I’m kinda going to be doing both.

“Well,” you said, “If you ever need anything, I’m here to help.”

“I’ll take you up on that then,” he said, putting a hand in his pocket. “I just might need you.”

“‘Course I’ve only been here for a few months myself,” you told him, “You may be better served by one of our older members.”

“And if I insist on you?” The man stepped closer to you.

“Well then,” you said, breathlessly, “I guess I can’t stop you. I hope I get to see you around.”

“Ditto, ” he sent you a grin. “And not just because I like looking at you.”

You raised an eyebrow, willing your cheeks to calm down.

“You’re not to bad yourself,” you shot back. “Or, I’m assuming you you weren’t. Before the door accident.”

He shrugged. “I guess we’ll never know.”

You checked your watch. You had already been here talking to this man for much longer than you thought. It was corset to go back and forth with him, you’d almost forgot the reason you’d been here in the first place. You didn’t want to be late for the shoot, as fun as this was.

“Well,” you started, sticking out your hand, “I better be going. But it was nice to meet you. I’m (Y/n), by the way.”

“I’m—” The man started, looking conflicted as he took your hand in his, “I meant to ask you, is there a sign in sheet somewhere? I couldn’t find it when I came in.”

His hand lingered on yours a bit longer than necessary before he pulled away. You supposed you could take one tiny detour before heading back.

“Right this way,” you smiled before turning around and letting him follow you.

You spoke as you walked. “We used to keep it by the entrance, but ever since we remodeled it kind of got shoved into a storage closet. Which is a lot more out of the way for everyone, but no one moves it back.”

You turned around, grinning at him. “You’ll find we’re very efficient here.”

You found the man looking at you, amused. You furrowed your brow at him, but he gestured for you to lead the way, so you turned around and kept walking.

“And voila,” you said, reaching the storage room. “The jewel of Smosh.”

You led him into the room, piled high with supplies and old costumes and props no one used anymore. You cleared some items off a table, uncovering the sign in sheet that legally you were all supposed to use every day.

“You’ll find that some people,” you gestured to the piece of paper on the clipboard. “Don’t actually sign in.”

You picked up a pen, hurriedly writing your name down. The man chuckled.

“I bet those people are annoying,” he teased.

You noticed how close he was standing to you. There was inches between you now as you talked.

You had a sudden mental imagine of him closing the gap between you. You shook it off.

You just met him! You told yourself. But, why did it feel like you’d known him much longer?

“Very,” you almost whispered. You handed him the pen.

“And also incredibly sexy,” he said, taking the pen from you, your fingers grazing.

Your breathing hitched as he turned to fully face you, looking down into your eyes.

“(Y/n)?” He said.

“Yeah?” You breathed.

“Stop me if this is too forward,” he leaned towards you slowly and before you could think twice you pressed your lips to his.

And then you were kissing him. One of his hands found its way to you hat and and the other was wrapped around your waist.

You placed your arms around his back as he kissed you.

This was all moving so fast, you thought. But somehow, it didn’t seem wrong.

Suddenly, you were lifted from the ground as he set you down in the table, deepening the kiss as you wrapped your legs around him.

You took your hands from him and used them to prop yourself up in the table. Your left hand landed on something hard and sharp.

You winced and the man pulled way, looking at you searchingly.

You pulled the object from where it had met your palm, lifting it up to show him.

“Well,” you said, looking down at it and laughing, “I guess this broken clock has had enough kissing for one day.”

“Way to kill the mood, man,” he addressed the clock.

Clock. A sudden though hit you, now that you were able to think again. You were so going to be late.

You stood up quickly. “I have to go.”

“Damn, I was that bad? You could’ve just said so.” He teased.

“No,” you waved it away, “Not at all. I’m just going to be late for a shoot. I better run.”

“Well,” the man said, kissing your hand, “It’s been a pleasure to meet you, (Y/n).”

“Ditto,” you said, echoing his earlier comment before smiling and walking out the door.

Well, that just happened, You thought to yourself as you hurried back to set. It wasn’t ever day you kissed people you hardly knew in the storage room.

As you pondered this, you realized you never had learned his name.

₊˚ ✧ ‿︵‿୨୧‿︵‿ ✧ ₊˚

You plopped down in between Angela and Shayne, still thinking of nothing but your interesting encounter earlier even though it had been hours.

You had just made it to the Who Meme’d It shoot, after running though the building, and managed to divert everyone’s questions on where you had been.

Now that it was over, you and many of your other cast mates sat in the main studio, apparently watching whatever video was being filmed in there.

“So,” Shayne turned to you, gesturing at the set, “Did you get a chance to meet Anthony before this shoot?”

You turned your head towards where he had pointed. Ian was sitting down next to the man you had met prior to this, deep in a discussion with him. Your heart leapt when you thought of him.

“Who?” You asked, only partially paying attention to this conversation.

Shayne pointed at the man next to Ian. The man who you had just been making out with in a storage closet.

“Anthony. You remember Anthony, right? Bought Smosh. Owner of the company. Your boss.”

You looked towards the set. Bought Smosh. This was the video Angela had been referring to.

Which meant that was—

Owner of the company. Your boss. Anthony.

Your mystery man was Anthony.

You had just kissed your boss.

“That’s Anthony?” Your voice came out as a squeak.

“Yeah,” Shayne said slowly, his brow furrowed. “Who did you think he was?”

“That can’t be Anthony!”

“What?”

“That can’t be Anthony, because I just made out with him!” You whisper yelled.

“You what?” Angela and Shayne said in unison.

“He told me he was new here, I didn’t know who he was!” You defended.

“How could you not know what Anthony looked like?” Shayne asked, baffled.

“I don’t know,” you shot back, “He’s been gone for like six years!”

“You don’t watch our videos?” He said incredulously.

“Is ok, neither do I,” Angela leaned over, piping in.

“I watched a few before I auditioned,” you said, remembering. “And sometimes I watch some of the ones I’m in…”

You trailed off.

“Wow,” Angela shook her head, “You kissed Anthony Padilla. Before some of us even met him. There goes my shot at a raise.”

“What do I do?” You asked them, biting your lip.

“Well, I’d suggest you start by talking to him,” Shayne advised, pointing to the front of the room.

The shoot for this video was just ending—it must have been almost over by the time you walked in—and you watched as the director called cut and everyone began to disperse.

You saw Anthony walk off set and begin to talk to a couple crew members.

Shayne was right—you would have to talk to him eventually. You stood up and walked over to where Anthony was standing.

You waited until he was done with his conversation before going up to him.

“You’re Anthony Padilla,” you said.

He raised his hand in the air. “You caught me. I figured you’d find out eventually.”

“But why?” You asked, “Why let me believe you were a new Smosh member.”

Anthony rubbed a hand behind his neck. “Well, technically I am new here. Reborn—like a phoenix.”

You giggled and he continued.

“And, you know, I kind of liked the idea that someone here didn’t know who I was. No pre-judgements or beforehand knowledge. To you I wasn’t ‘the guy who left and came back’. I guess I liked that you knew me as me, the guy you hit with a door and not Anthony Padilla.”

“I don’t know about that,” you teased, “Just because I didn’t know what you looked like, doesn’t mean I haven’t heard stories about you.”

“And I’d love to hear all of them,” he said, stepping closer, “say on Friday at around six?”

“Anthony,” you said, using his name for the first time, “We can’t do this. You’re my boss, in case you forgot.”

“One of the perks of owning your own company,” he whispered, “is that I can do this.”

He leaned down and kissed you gently on the lips before pulling away, his eyes teasing.

“With your consent, of course. And I’d love to see you again—if you’ll allow me to.”

You giggled. “I’d like that a lot.”

Anthony brushed the hair back from your face and kissed you one last time before stepping backwards a few steps.

“So,” he said, “I’ll see on Friday then.”

He took a few more steps, gesturing to the doorway behind him.

“That is, if you don’t kill me first.”

You smiled as the memory of earlier that day resurfaced and you watched as Anthony turned around and strolled out the door, passing Chanse as he did so.

Of all the ways you’d imagined your first meeting with Anthony going, this certainly wasn’t one of them.

Who knew the infamous Anthony would end up being your mystery kisser and then your boss who you were going to continue seeing.

You looked over to Angela and Shayne. Angela shot you a big thumbs up and Shayne shrugged and nodded as if to say ‘hey, go for it’

You couldn’t believe the turn your day had taken.

You took a deep breath. You didn’t know what was going to happen from here, but you knew you were damn excited to find out.

You looked up as Chanse walked over to the center of the room, continually glancing over his shoulder with a confused expression.

“Ok,” he said, “does someone want to tell me who the hell that is?”

Hello!! I love your Disney holo!villains, your writing style is just absolutely lovely!

Could I please request the reader fixing a meet-n-greet gone wrong with some of the less popular villains of your choice?? Can't imagine they take very well to being disregarded or unacknowledged...

No pressure and have a lovely day! 😁

It makes my day when one of my favorite Disney villain blogs asks for a request 😭 I hope I delivered!

Meet-N-Greet gone wrong

————————————————————————

It’s Meet-n-greet day at Disney! A perfect day for the resident narcissists to get their daily praise in!

(Y/N), who was assigned to supervise the event wasn’t concerned about the panel. Usually all the Villains acted on their best behavior, happy to receive any compliments from annoying millennials in $50 mouse ears.

This Meet-n-greet was a special event, where all villains including lesser known members where present. And even though they were to prideful to admit it, villains like Alameda, Medusa, Rourke, and Sykes where looking forwards to the event.

Before the panel, (Y/N) walked by their dressing rooms and noticed the extra care they took into getting ready.

Alameda pulling on a new pair of suede chaps, Medusa perming her hair as she did her nails, Rourke spritzed some of his favorite cologne, and Sykes made sure to choose some of his finest cufflinks. All minor details, but (Y/N) could tell how excited they where to receive some attention.

Unfortunately the meet-n-greet went like any other, with guests only being interested in the big bads. Cooing over their favorites, asking for autographs and photos. The whole works. All the while the other villains where cast to the sidelines, getting increasingly frustrated as the event went on.

(Y/N), taking notice of this, tried to bring a group of park goers over to the others, both as a way to keep the mainline villains from getting overwhelmed and to get some attention on the lesser known characters.

Unfortunately the guests where not interested..

“And this here is Alameda Slim! A master cow wrangler and genius yodeler from the 2004 film ‘Home on the Range’! He also tried to burn down a local Texas road house!” (Y/N) motioned up at the cowboy, who tilted his hat in pride.

“…what? Yodeling? That’s one of the worst sounds known to man, can we go back to the others, I wanna meet Jafar!” Some person in the group spoke up, with the others murmuring in agreement.

“Wuh- worst sounds!? I’LL SHOW YA WORST SOUNDS YOU LITTLE-”

The meet-n-greet dissolved into chaos as Alameda tried to lunge at the rude guest, who by some miracle didn’t get choked out as (Y/N) held him back with the combined effort of Rourke and Sykes.

Needless to say the panel ended early, with the excuse of the heat getting to the villains. Villains like Cruella and Gaston where pissed the praise ended so soon, while others like Hook and Hades were glad finally to be left alone.

Later that night, Alameda was brought out of his brooding when a quick knock came from his door, which revealed a smiling (Y/N).

(Y/N) dragged him downstairs into the employee break room, where he was met with his fellow villains, all sharing the same confused expression.

“Listen, I know that today was a shit show. And I’m sorry that it seems like no one acknowledges you. But I wanted to show you all something…”

(Y/N) proceeded to pull out their laptop from their work bag, opening it up as they motioned the villains to gather round.

“I wanted to show you all that there are people who love you guys, they’re entire blogs dedicated to you all from people across the world. I’m actually apart of some.”

Alameda and the others where shocked as (Y/N) shared with them all the fanart, ramblings, and imagines about them. Medusa jumped up and down in place pressing close to (Y/N) to get a better look at the screen. Rourke, who was never a fan of the internet grumbled to himself, but had an amused grin on his face.

Alameda felt the frustration of the day fade into obscurity as he guffawed at the things people where writing about him. At one point Sykes began to gag at some of the more.. suggestive content, which only led to more laughter from the group

The entire night was spent scrolling through the countless blogs, laughing and cringing until the laptop ran out of battery

————————————————————————

This was a little love letter to our community, you all are such talented creators and I’m so lucky to be apart of this small corner of the internet!

I feel like we would both traumatize and flatter Disney Villains if they saw what we write about them 🤣 Frollo would probably turn to dust

DISCLAIMER!! I AM PRO PALESTINE!! I JUST WANT TO CRITIQUE BACKWARDS THINKING AND CALL OUT FLAWS!

I'm honestly so conflicted how pro Palestinians think.

Like, can we stop making people feel like they're murders just for not rebloging something they're triggered seeing?

"Well how do you think they feel? They were there!"

Well I wasn't and it's my choice to scroll. I've seen on more than one occasion "vetted" donations actually ending going to Israel. Who knows what's real in those photos and what's sfx makeup?

You call everyone who doesn't actively speak up about Palestine "zionists" when you don't know their situation.

Markiplier? Said that he's silently donating.

Joe Keery? He can't lose his job. Is he hanging out with Noah? Yes. But so is Gaten and you don't say anything about him. And you don't know the reason behind it.

Hugh Jackman? That man is old. He doesn't need to speak up if he doesn't want to. He probably realizes he'll get hate no matter what he does, so he just keeps quiet. And don't bring in that stupid cult shit, I've seen the photos, they're photoshopped as fuck.

Edit: Joseph Quinn is still friends with Joe Keery. Joseph outwardly supports Palestine. If Joe was a zio, do you really think Joseph would still be friends with him? Noah came out as a zio LAST YEAR. The latest things I can find on Google being friends about the two is from IMBD, Reddit, and FandomWire all this year (earliest being 6 months ago). Do you REALLY think the two would be THIS close if Joe was a zio? Cast members hang out. And as for the whole Disney thing? Do you guys understand that acting is Joseph's JOB?? He can't just quit acting and live a "normal" life, the man was already doxxed for gods' sakes! He took up a contract with Disney to keep his job going. It's what he has to do. It's like saying you're inherently racist because you can't quit your job, and your boss is a racist. He got a job with Disney. So did Zendaya, who open supports Palestine as well. But she's a "pretty face", so it doesn't matter, does it? 👏 Make 👏 it 👏 make 👏 sense!👏

You ask minors for donations then tell them to jump when they say they can't. You give death threats to people who are so dirt poor they don't even bother posting the asks.

Yes, I'm pro Palestine.

But what we're not gonna do, is be a bitch to people if you don't even know their situation.

I cannot talk about Palestine outside of this blog because of the state I live in. I have been physically pushed to the ground because of my views. This is going to sound shit, but my health comes before a donation I don't even know is real.

#anti endo #endos dni #joe keery #gaten matarazzo #markiplier #hugh jackman #free palestine #stand with palestine #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #i stand with palestine #not death threats #tw kys mention

Frozen 3 - What We Know So Far - 2023

(NOTE: Image above is not concept art for F3. It is from F2.)

I wanted to do an overview post of everything we've learned this year about F3. I want to keep track of all news related to this project so that we can avoid misunderstandings and fan theories overrunning the films' development, like with what happened with F1 and F2.

To note, from now on I'm pretty much combining F3 and F4 (or F3 part 2) as a single project until we learn more about them. They are pretty much confirmed to be the same story anyway, so it makes sense to just put them together. Thus, if you want to know about F4 on my blog, it will be under the #frozen 3 news tag that I feature on my page.

I want to give shout outs to @ericmicael, @frozen-snowflakesandsunflowers, @frozensnetwork, and @bigfrozenfan for actually being the ones to provide some the sources below. I don't want to take all the credit for finding this info.

If any more info drops in December, or I discover more news released in 2023 in general, I will update this post.

Overview of What We Know

The idea of Frozen 3 came from Marc Smith, the Story Director of Frozen 2, and the story is so large that it will be separated into two films. There is no official release date, or info regarding how the two films will be released.

Jennifer Lee is overseeing the project and keeping up with it, but is not writing or directing as of 2023. This may change later on, however as of now, Lee is not behind the creative process.

It is currently unknown if Chris Buck will return as director, and there is no news on who is directing or writing the films, other than Marc Smith coming up with the initial idea.

Idina Menzel and Josh Gad have officially announced their involvement. However, Kristen Bell and Jonathan Groff have not officially announced their returns. It is sort of obvious that they will return, especially with Bell saying that they are all ready to return, but just wanted to establish that they have not publicly stated this yet since the announcement. As for other cast members, no one has stated yet that they will return as of 2023.

Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Bobby Lopez are returning to write the songs, and have also confirmed that the story will be two films.

Jennifer Lee continued to push that no other entry other than the main films are canon to the newest project. Thus, the Frozen Podcast that was announced alongside F3 and misrepresented as a lead up to F3, is not considered canon.

There is very little known about the story, however, it may be about Elsa and Anna being very busy in their new roles. There is also some hints about Elsa's powers possibly growing.

More detailed news with sources below the read more.

---

As a quick shout out, in the year 2022, Kristen Bell had actually hinted at Frozen 3. At the time, this was considered a joke since Kristen Bell loves to push for more Frozen sequels (and honestly, it probably still is a very coincidental joke haha), however now that we know that F3 was possibly in development at this time, this may of been the first official hint at F3 that we ever received.

youtube

"I would like to officially announce, with zero authority, Frozen 3. I know Idina recently said she would do it. And I feel like if we're all in, what are we waiting for?" -- Kristen Bell, Voice of Anna

---

The first bit of information we received about F3 in 2023 was the announcement itself. In early February, Frozen 3 was announced to be in development along side Toy Story 5 and Zootopia 2.

“Today I’m so pleased to announce that we have sequels in the works from our animation studios to some of our most popular franchises, Toy Story, Frozen and Zootopia. We’ll have more to share about these productions soon, but this is a great example of how we’re leaning into our unrivaled brands and franchises.” -- Bob Iger, Disney CEO

---

At the same time, Kristen Anderson-Lopez further confirmed this, indirectly announcing that the Lopezes would return to write the songs for the new film.

---

On the same day, Josh Gad confirmed (inserting link in case video doesn't load) that he was ready to return to the film.

---

In June, we received new information about the film in regards to Jennifer Lee's involvement. As of 2023, Jennifer Lee is only overseeing the project, but not writing or directing it. In this announcement, (which is actually bit misleading since, as said, Jennifer Lee is still returning to the project, just not fully as writer/director) Lee hinted that someone else came up with the idea of Frozen 3, and it had become their project. This led to many fans assuming that this new person was the new director/writer.

“I can’t say where we are. All our stories are driven by the artists in the studio. Where we’re going with Frozen did not come from me, it came from an incredible person. That’s a new piece, I’ve told no one. And I’ve been blown away by it and I’m just having a blast with that team.” -- Jennifer Lee, Disney Animation Studios Chief Creative Officer

---

In the same month, Idina Menzel confirmed her return as Elsa. However, she stated that she didn't know too much about the project itself and said that they only teased her about it.

“I don’t know a lot. To be completely honest, they teased it to us, and I have no idea. They don’t show you a script. They don’t show you anything. All I know is, yeah we are gonna make one, and that’s it. So, I’m like, ‘Cool! I will be able to pay my bills." --Idina Menzel, Voice of Elsa

---

A Month later, Idina continued to drop small tidbits of what she knows (barely anything apparently haha) about F3 in another interview with This Morning.

youtube

"Yes...it's happening I was told, I mean you know nothing's been signed but I'm very excited if it is happening- I swear to you I'm not being elusive...I haven't seen a script." --Idina Menzel, Voice of Elsa

---

Later in October, we got more info about the film's creative team and how involved Jennifer Lee actually is on the project. Lee announced that the incredible person who came up with the idea of F3 was Marc Smith, Director of story for F2. She also stated that she was blown away by the progress on the project.

“Every morning last week they carved out space for me to work with the creative team on it, and I am blown away and I am so excited. I don’t know what I’m doing on it yet — I’m not doing nothing — except doing what I do now, which is we work on every project as as team and I’m in there with creative. But with ‘Frozen,’ just a little bit more. Our philosophy is this, and it won’t change: If there is more story to tell, the filmmakers have to drive it. And I’ll say with ‘Frozen,’ Marc Smith, who was our director of story on ‘Frozen 2,’ came with an incredible idea for more ‘Frozen,’ and it’s worth it." -- Jennifer Lee, Disney Animation Studios Chief Creative Officer

---

Jennifer Lee later confirmed this information again in another interview within the same month, and also pushed that the Frozen Podcast: Forces of Nature, is not canon the the newest project.

The idea for Frozen 3, she continues, came from Marc Smith, head of story on Frozen II. “Growing it out from there feels right because it’s coming with vision, it’s coming with purpose." Lee can't say much about what the sequel entails, but when asked if fans should be paying close attention to the current Frozen story being told on the Forces of Nature podcast series, she's hesitant to consider the audio offering canon. In my head, the films will always stay canon. Anything done outside of that, we give them permission to have their own identity. They may not be canon. I still encourage it because I think it’s fun to explore. But don’t hold us to anything except what we put in those features. That’s just me. I don’t want to disappoint anyone. But I also want to say I love that other artists get inspired, and I love the idea of the Frozen story.” -- Jennifer Lee, Disney Animation Studios Chief Creative Officer

---

The biggest shock that shook the entire fandom and internet culture, was when Bob Iger dropped the reveal that a Frozen 4 was also in the works at the studio in November.

youtube

‘Frozen 3’ is in the works, and there might be a ‘Frozen 4’ in the works too. But I don’t have much to say about those films right now. Jenn Lee, who created the original ‘Frozen’ and ‘Frozen 2,’ is hard at work with her team at Disney animation on not one but actually two stories.” -- Bob Iger, Disney CEO

---

Along side the above announcement, Kristen Anderson-Lopez also confirmed the fourth film.

---

Later on in the same month, Jennifer Lee gave more back ground on the idea of two films, and indirectly confirmed that the films would be one story told across two installments.

"We're really excited about where they're going, and we just have a lot of story to tell with that direction we're going in. So, I think, in my head, there may be enough for two in that story. But I'm really, really loving working with the team and where they're going." --Jennifer Lee, Disney Animation Studios Chief Creative Officer

---

In November as well, This tweet (linking here just in case the video below doesn't work) started to pick up steam and was posted by a verified account - however, it is still iffy on whether or not this info was for F3 or was just taken from an interview about F2 and repurposed to be about F3. If it is genuine, then Jennifer Lee hints here that the story will possibly involve Elsa's powers growing.

"I will tell you what I think philosophically, that isn't telling you what is in [Frozen 3]. I think Anna and Elsa's journey is only continuing. It was warned by the Trolls that that Elsa's powers would only grow. So, that's all I will say." --Jennifer Lee, Disney Animation Studios Chief Creative Officer

---

In December, Jennifer Lee did another interview with Heart where she actually revealed a tiny bit more about Frozen 3's story. She goes on to say that Elsa and Anna will be very busy in the next project.

youtube

“Well they are coming back. Big Iger himself leaked it, that we got so much story that we’re working on now, it looks like it’s gonna be two films. Cause it’s so big where they’re going next. And Elsa’s got a lot to do, so, and I can’t give anything away to say what’s gonna happen but Anna as well. And Anna’s you know, I feel very connected to her, the ordinary hero, I don’t have any magic. But I’m really excited. The amazing thing to me is always how these two sisters as we start looking at their journey, they keep surprising us and telling us, showing us what they’re capable of. So I’m definitely excited about where we’re going.” So does Elsa find love? “I can’t give anything away, I can’t tell you anything. All I want to say is that anyone who thinks they’ve heard anything they are not true, there’s no leak, nothing has left our vaulted story room and the only leak is what Bob Iger leaked himself.” --Jennifer Lee, Disney Animation Studios Chief Creative Officer

Hey, thanks for putting up an ask blog! Don't know if tumblr is the best place to put it for social media engagement, but then again Neil Gaiman seems to be enjoying himself so who am I to judge?

I have a whole bunch of questions, and I'm not sure if it'd be annoying to flood your inbox with them, so feel free to pick and choose any of these to reply.

Questions for Dawn: who would you consider to be the animated 'it' girl right now?

What do you think about the recent trend of 'fleshwashing' that Disney has been pushing when it comes to remakes? Is this part of a bias against toons when it comes to casting?

In your opinion, who do you think is the best 'old-school' toon who still actively performs? Questions for Doris: Has toontown managed to avoid the plague of gentrification that hit a lot of other older neighborhoods in LA?

Is there a union for animated actors? If there is, how effective is it in your opinion? Have things gotten better or worse for animated actors over the years?

Did you ever get to know your animator? If not, would you have wanted to know them?

We should probably get a reddit at some point. Everyone on tumblr has been amazing though. We do have an instagram, @dawn_doodle and @dorisdoodle_toon.

There's also a fanmade discord! One we need to check on more after we're done...preparing some new things.

Who do I think is the current it girl of animation? It changes so fast, but my vote right now is POMNI! Who doesn't feel like Pomni like daily? Also, indie!

Check back in a month when my answer may change again!

What do we think of all these live action remakes? I still don't mind them too much, but Avatar on netflix might be unnecessary. I'm starting to wear thin. Doris gave a rambling answer on this before and I don't think her opinion has changed.

Best old School toon still in business? I think we actually have an agreement on this one and that's this 2D Girl boss!

Was Toon town able to avoid any gentrification? Here's Doris with a history lesson:

As some people know, ToonTown was left to the toons, and that was great. We could vote for changes in the town and run it ourselves, but that didn't mean we were separate from California and certain laws. So it was devastating when it was decided that the land we lived on wasn't fully ours and the decision to build a freeway system was still being considered. This was in the 50s and I had already moved out of ToonTown, but I heard about the protests and letters written to Earl Warren.

None of it helped, and in 1956, Eisenhower signed the highway act and a freeway was constructed. So the town wasn't as saved as the movie "Who Frames Roger Rabbit" lets you believe.

Since the toons owned ToonTown, they couldn't just completely destroy it. We were just told to move. So the town is split up into districts. There's one near Disneyland, another a few streets from Universal. Always near studios. They like keeping an eye on their assets. So at least we got to keep the town in some way.

Is there a union for toons? There have been attempts. But in the end were considered intellectual property of the studios. fully owned and by contract from the moment the first line is sketched. A lot of older toons have a little more freedom from those contracts. By older, I'm talking Bugs Bunny and the Peanuts kids. That's starting to get harder though as studios are stating to hold a tighter grip on animation. It's less a creative thought process and more business. Doris says it's colder in a behind closed doors way. I say that cold is starting to leak into the outside. So yeah, no union, especially for newly drawn stars, and well...things aren't exactly getting better.

Did we get to know our creators?

Doris did!

We all do I guess while being drawn. but it's not as personal now. I was kinda made through a committee. So there are artists who really care and I would've wanted to get to know them, but there are also execs, studio owners, managers, all hovering around to check on their investment. And once approved, you are under studio control. It's nice if the artists can stick around at the studio, but most times they're laid off once the creation is done and they need to go work at another place. This goes into that whole colder thing. From what Doris has shown me, it was a little more fun before. Animators and toons would just hang out I guess.

They would even have fun with their voice actors.

Today, studios want big celebrities to give us our voices. So they usually come in to lay down the track and then leave with the paycheck. Not all though, I heard Jack Black like to see the characters he's given a voice too. It just doesn't happen often.

Sorry it took a while to get to your question! We're trying to get a few things going right now so our timing is way off.

Also, a list of questions is always good, keep em coming!

Hi omg welcome back! Thank you so much for the detail on your description about the classes! When and if you have time, I would love to hear more! Have you had classes with Crewel yet? And are there any other teachers aside from the ones we know from the game? Thats something Ive always wanted to know! Also, have you gone to Sam's shop yet? How is he? He is my favourite staff member!

Oh and how long did you stay? Did you experience any events ingame and maybe some that werent in the game? Have you gone to anyones homecountry like the events?

PS: If there are too many questions, feel free to chose some to skip! I dont want to overwhelm you :) <3

It's not too much to answer the questions! There's only 2 asks now including this one and the other one if for one of my fanfic blogs so I should have enough energy/time now lol

First The rest of my classes for the current semester:

Animal Language Class

No Magic required

Consists of basic body language of different animals that might accompany you on your journey through being a "Proper mage" as Professor Trein would put it lol. This includes cats, dogs, rats, etc (basically any animal you can find in a Disney film.)

As the class goes on you learn how to decipher what they're actually saying verbally and non verbally. Unlike here animals are sentient, they will make fun of you later trust me. Ace and Deuce are frequently the victim of this lmfao

Its pretty difficult for me personally but I'm bad at communicating with humans so I wasn't really expecting any less lmfao Its as difficult as learning any new language in all seriousness so if you find that hard then welcome to the club I made cookies.

Difficulty: 4/5

Potions/Alchemy (Creation/material studies)

Magic materials will be provided by class instructor, minimal magic is needed from the mage

Consists of different creation techniques, what materials have what properties, what the different potions do, etc. There's a potion for anything and everything, most only having temporary effects but some are more permanent (base level and under specific conditions). Honestly this is one of my favorite classes. Its the most fun in my opinion.

It's not at all difficult because we're allowed to have our recipes at all times.

Difficulty: 1/5

Spell casting

Magic required

Now this is where being magicless really sucked (I still got a really good grade). I wasn't able to participate much in the begining and I was stuck memorizing spells I would never be able to use. I shit you not this man (The prof) looked at me and said

"You may not have the proper abilities to cast spells but I'll be sure to turn you into a grimoire of them by the end of this class"

Honestly stayed true to his word ngl. The amount of notes and textbooks and reciting the damn things, practicing proper spell casting formation/posture. I could instruct the other students at this point. I'm having flashbacks just thinking about it lmfao

The class consists of the actual spells, the motions needed to enact each spell, the proper posture to take when casting. We learn what each spell does, and the proper situations to use them in, etc. It is mostly just actually casting spells though and a I've only relatively recently learned how to use magic. I'm getting there with the help of Azul and my professors tho.

I wouldn't say its the worst difficulty wise but my memory is decent when it comes to academics.

dificulty: 3/5

Astrology

This class consists of studying the stars, constellations, planets, and the moon cycles and how they affect the magic we produce.

"Just as the ocean is affected by the moon and the stars, so too is our energy and magic."

Corny shit but accurate and factual lmfao. It's a really easy class and that's really all there is to it. It's mostly so you understand why your magic is stronger/weaker on different days. this also used as a reference in other classes. Like "X spell is more affective during Y Moon cycle"

Difficulty: 1/5

There's definitely more classes that I don't know of yet but we'll get to them eventually!

''Have you had classes with Crewel yet?"

Yes! I'm actually his favorite student weirdly enough lol. He's chill as long as you act right (paying attention to the lesson, doing your classwork/homework, etc). This man fr defended me from these bitch ass guys who were like

"She doesn't even have magic why does she have the top scores????"

To which he responded "Maybe if you were as diligent of a student perhaps you could also be part of the top scores, until then however, return to your seat"

Never felt safer with a teacher I swear.

"Are there any other teachers aside from the ones we know from the game?"

Yeah. I can't remember their names right this moment cuz I haven't been back there in a minute. My mental health has been ass and I fell out of love with shifting for a long while but I'm back now! I'm hopefully going back soon. I miss my boys and my classes. Mostly my boys tho. I'll have to share who they are and what their names are after I go next.

"Have you gone to Sam's shop yet? How is he?"

I have! Actually when I got my monthly allowance from Crowley (I manifested that in with the intention method cuz I'll be dammed if that cheap bitch fucks me over) it was the first place I visited. He sells damn near everything you need to live on campus. I got soap, an African net sponge (its called Savanna net sponge cuz ✨Afterglow/Sunset Savanna✨) and some lotion. I barely had enough for my groceries after that month. I was living on Ramen and the school allotted lunch (。﹏。*) This being said be prepared for Sam to over price everything. This is a rich people school and I mean eat the rich and all but PLEASE HAVE MERCY

As for how he is as a person, he's really chill. Very nice but he is still a salesman so keep that in mind with your interactions. He may have mercy if he's feeling generous (pity) lmfao. Jokes aside hes actually pretty nice outside of his business. He allowed me to talk to him about struggling with living with Vil for that month with his unseasoned dry ass chicken 😭

"How long did you stay? Did you experience any events in game and maybe some that weren't in the game?"

Currently I'm dealing with STYX and Idia's overblot. Up until that point its been about 6-7 months over there. Everything in the main game happens so fast and in such quick succession. I've experienced the Halloween events, birthdays, and the New Year events. I didn't participate in Sams event cuz I was dealing with living with Vil training for the SDC/VDC and calming down from everything with Jamil. TBH there might have been events that weren't showcased but I was just too busy with the main events and classe/hanging out with other students.

"Have you gone to anyone's home country like the events?"

Not yet but we are staying at Rooks many homes while on our way to STYX to rescue everyone rn. Hopefully soon tho because Idk it seems like a lot of fun to learn more about my friends and their homes.

Today is the birthday of the late Ed Asner. Many are familiar with him as the voices of Carl Fredricksen from Up, Santa from Elf, and Hudson from Gargoyles, as well as Lou Grant from the Mary Tyler Moore Show and the aptly named, Lou Grant (series).

Back in the mid 2000's, my family and I were staying at a very large expensive house that belonged to friends of my parents as guests. They had a larger cable package than we did back at home, and they had ToonDisney. I remember seeing Gargoyles while staying there, on the "Hangin' with the Heroes" block in the evening. I remember seeing this show very vaguely as a younger kid, but I must not have been older than 6 or 7 or so given the original air dates.

I was totally enamored with these characters almost instantly. I hopped on their upscale internet, and immediately perused various Disney media sites at the time and started going down the rabbit hole with what little material the internet had back in like 2004 about the show. I learned about the cast, Greg Weisman's blog Station 8, and somehow convinced my parents to upgrade our cable so I could watch it. I even made a Neopets Fanpage about the show, and I have no idea if it's still around.

I don't have a lot of specific memories about Hudson being my favorite, or even having a particularly verbose knowledge of the show back them, but I DO remember becoming familiar and fond of Ed Asner, seeing a teaser for Up, learning he was in it, and that detail making it NECESSARY for me to watch it on release day.

I remember the evening before watching Up, and enjoying it, but I rewatched it with my mom a few days later. I am not sure what was different here, but I became OBSESSED. I joined a Pixar fan site, became a highly active member, and began absolutely marathoning this film. I also spent 5 hours one evening with a mechanical pencil, very little drawing skill, and drew this. (apologies, the picture is 14 years old and washed out)

To be clear, this was EXTREMELY out of nowhere. I had never drawn anything remotely this detailed before. So I (quite ignorantly, but still strongly) decided to change college majors and pursue art. Still workin' on that one...

Down the line, I ultimately watched Up in theaters 50 times, held movie nights for the fansite over Skype, made multiple forum signatures for myself and other members, and even got invited to Pixar, and met a lot of Pixar leadership (albeit briefly for most).

At the center of this though, Ed Asner was responsible for me gravitating to these characters. I've been pretty consistently enamored with his brand of wholesome curmudgeonry.

(I just made up that word, and I like it, so it's real now)

In any case, I've always felt a bit odd for having an attachment to an actor that hit his acting stride while being middle-aged in the 70s, 20 years before I was even alive - like I'm the only person my age that even knows this guy existed.

I had never gotten to meet Ed, but I did make an attempt shortly before he passed. It didn't work out, but his son Matt runs a charity organization called The Ed Asner Family Center that focuses on supporting individuals and families with autism and neurodivergence. I was fortunate enough to join an early screening of Dug Days before it released on Disney + thanks to a fundraiser by the center, including a Zoom Q&A with Ed. The thing I noticed during the call is that Ed was so immensely quick-witted, absolutely hilarious, and would not leave his piece unsaid. He had an astoundingly magnetic personality. It wasn't open mic, but I managed to get a question through - "What was it that got you into acting?"

Jonas Rivera, the Producer of Up was moderating the call and Ed about verbally trampled the guy by the time he was getting the last few words out, and he knew exactly what he wanted to say.

I don't have the exact words, but it boiled down to "escapism" - which was a bit shocking to me. You've got a former president of SAG, who'd been acting for longer than I have been a living person, and he was immediately compelled to tell everyone that the reason he got into showbusiness is to run from the world and its problems. It was remarkably humble.

Ed passed away exactly a week later. I couldn't eat for 2 days, I was so distraught.

I highly recommend that folks check out a lot of the acting Ed has done. He's absolutely brilliant, and one of the most fun people to watch. He was intimidatingly witty, and yet seemed like the guy who would talk to just about anyone. And then make them laugh their sides off.

I haven't shared my deep admiration for Ed too often other than with folks closest to me, but Ed Asner was a precious gem of a human being, and embodies a lot of things I think the world - particularly folks of the male persuasion - should have a bit more of.

Here's to you, Ed. Have a happy birthday up there for us, big guy. We love ya. <3

(side note, the portrait at the top, I drew to commemorate his first birthday after he passed in 2021. The picture at the bottom was drawn, but not adequately finished imo, about 2 weeks before he left us. I need to give it a proper redo someday)

Question for any folks who have experience with Batuu Bounding/Disneyland!

I'm going to Galaxy's Edge for the first time very soon, and I'm both extremely excited but also terrified I'll do something wrong. I've been wanting to go since it was first announced, and I'm not sure when I'll get another opportunity so I want to make this count!

I love dressing up so of course i want to try Batuu Bounding (dressing up in-universe), but my personal sense of what counts as costumey or not is extremely skewed. Adults are technically not allowed to wear costumes inside Disneyland, but people are also encouraged to "dress like a local" when visiting Batuu, aka Galaxy's Edge, aka Star Wars land. This creates a very gray zone on what counts as a costume and what is Batuu bounding.

I've tried to do a ton of research on my own, reading the official rules, blogs, and even reddit, but would appreciate any feedback, especially if you have personal experience! Note, I'll be going to Disneyland, aka Disney West, aka Anaheim, California.

So my question: Do you think they'll let me in with these outfits?

Technically I'm following their guidelines:

-Not attempting to look like any official character

-No robes/cape (just a scarf that can be adjusted)

-No weapons except lightsaber (yes, it's the Visions one from Lop & Ochō. I'm Japanese, I thought it fitting I get the Japanese lightsaber lol)

-No hard armor—except the back of glove plates, which are really small and I think I've seen people with those? After receiving advice on Twitter, I'm just gonna leave the gloves off entirely, better not to risk it plus they're gonna be uncomfy anyway

-Nothing dragging on ground

-No costume pieces; both of the above outfits are a combination of traditional Japanese-style, J-punk/rock, alternative, and natural cotton/linen fashion, all of which I wear regularly as part of my daily wardrobe (see what I mean by "my sense of what counts as too costumey is extremely skewed" LMAO)

-I know they have a "no masks" rule, but mine is a COVID mask, and they allow those right? If the outer mask protector is too costume-y, I can defs take it off, but I ain't going without any mask.

-My "I am not a cast member" item is the jetpack backpack, but idk I don't think I look like a cast member

I was gonna make the black dress one main but I think I liked the second one with vest and kama more (let's see if I can tolerate wearing pants all day lmao). Everything is layered, can easily mix 'n match tops/bottoms, I have a few other color variation tops I can mix in too. I also think Cali is gonna be way warmer than I'm expecting so I may shed layers. For now I'm thinking of making my main day the second one, except instead of a green shirt under the green vest, I'll wear a black one.

Also, note that while my True Mandos leather patch is skewed on the green outfit in the above photos, it'll be properly attached on the day of. I just wanted it lightly attached for a quick try-on photo, but it can securely attach via pins on the back! (also yes, that is a mini Fennec-inspired light-up Greeblie <3 )

Also a few more closeups:

The empty strap thing is a harness to carry a Droid Depot droid, which I have a reservation to build on the first droid. The casings holder thing on the strap that makes it look like a bandolier are kyber crystal holders. I also have an empty leather holder for a detonator soda can and yet another kyber crystal holder on my belt. After getting advice on Twitter, I'm going to put all of these in my bag when I enter the park to reduce how cluttered I look at the entrance, since they're technically all things to carry stuff I will be buying inside the park but do not yet have.

I have a giant mythosaur brooch on my scarf, but it's not solid metal, but a resin-metal mix. I think it should count as a "pin" and not armor.

The thing on my left arm is a decked out Magicband+. I still have no idea how to use it but I hope it will be intuitive ^ ^;

(yeah, so many Etsy sellers have received my money over the past half year that has passed since I started planning for this trip lmao)

I also received feedback on Twitter that my lightsaber sheath looks too much like a katana which may trigger security, so I'm going to be making a little end cap for it to make it look blunter. It's a nice Pixel blade attached to an expensive Proffie lightsaber, so I do want to protect it, and hope a blunted endcap will make it clearer that it's a lightsaber.

I'll probably only bother with the droid carrier + lightsaber + kyber crystal bandolier on one of the three days I'm there, so I can travel lighter on my other days!

I'm really hoping I'll get to talk to Boba/Fennec/Din on at least one of the 3 days I'm there, which is one of the reasons why I've got so much Mando stuff on (in addition to just, trying to make a "bounty hunter" look, and also eyyy Mandos). Idk if it's too subtle or if they'll ignore me bc I'm trying too hard sobs

So yeah, with my aforementioned modifications, do you think they'll let me in?

Any feedback, opinions, or even general advice for a first time visitor to Batuu would be immensely appreciated <3

Thanks so much!!! ;A;

#YukiPri rambles #YukiPri selfie #Batuu #Galaxy's Edge #Disneyland #Batuu Bounding #Bounding #Star Wars #I want to perform well at my vacation at Disneyland which I know is both a normal thing to want and possible to achieve #I want a Good Grade in Star Wars Fan visitor lmao sobs #also if u want to be amused u can see all 3 of my boys making cameos in the bg #it was freakin' COLD today so no they did not get to go out onto the catio and they were not happy bc I was out there takin' pics with mum

Hello!

My turn now! Kingdom hearts for the fandom ask game! :)

alright bitches let's gooooo

my favorite female character

gotta give that to my girl Namine!! shes my second favorite in the series for the angsty tragic vibes. Incase you can't tell by the character I've based my entire blog off of I really enjoy those vibes lmao. also she has the best hair out of everyone (I tend to be a huge sucker for blondes and the hair over the shoulder is just really cool)

my favorite male character

cmon. do I even need to answer this one? At this current moment, Vanitas might just be the most important fictional character to me personally of all time. which is honestly kind of embarrassing to say considering on the surface he's literally an edgy version of the main character but just everything about him and his story hits me so hard in a way I can't even describe right now. so yeah. it's Vanitas.

my favorite book/season/etc

like you said, since this is a game series I'll just put my favorite game here. I've only ever actually beaten KH1 (I'll get to the rest eventually don't judge me-) and I think just looking at the rest of the series that would have to be my favorite gameplay wise, tho of course I still don't have the best grasp on that lmao. but then story wise by favorite would have to go to BBS. but then as a meddling of both gameplay and story I think my favorite would have to go to KH3 so....idk. one of those three depending on the day.

my favorite episode (if its a tv show)

obviously it's not a tv show but I think this would be a fun place to ask "what's your favorite world?" so i'm gonna do that instead. so if we're including all worlds in the series it would have to go to KH1 Hollow Bastion no contest, but if we only include Disney worlds, I think I would have to give that one to Symphony of Sorcery in DDD.

my favorite cast member

so i'm just gonna say my favorite voice actor for this one and i think i'd have to give that to Jesse McCartney for his work as Roxas and Ven. I think the voice he gives them suits their design perfectly and I adore hearing the slight distinction in their voices, with Roxas's having a bit of a harder edge while Ven's is slightly higher and softer, it just really works to highlight their different personalities despite looking the same. I also love the energy that Haley Joel Osment always brings to Sora and Vanitas (although DDD Sora can be a bit rough to listen to at times and KH3 Vantias is uh...quite the divisive performance lmao)

my favorite ship

gotta go Soriku for that one, their dynamic is just so well fleshed out and cute for me to NOT adore it. although I just wanna say here that I think the dynamic between Sora and Namine is really underrated and a romantic dynamic between the two of them filled with angst and apologizing and all that jazz could be really interesting if written well. or hell even just some more stuff focusing on their platonic dynamic. just more of them in general please.

a character I'd die defending

obvioulsy would pick Vanitas here as I think a lot of his actions, while horrible, are very forgivable and defendable when given the full context. also I defend Ven a lot since people very often say he's an incredibly boring character and while I completely understand that since I think a lot of his really interesting potential is very underexplored at this point I'm also like booo! hiss!! spray bottle!!!! stay away from my son >:(

a character I just can't sympathize with

Ansem the Wise and fully grown old man Xehanort for that one. while I do think that people give ATW shit a bit too often and blame him for stuff that he technically shouldn't be blamed for, he was still a massive racist dickhead that ruined the lives of so many people around him for his own selfish reasons. plus, like many others, I really didn't like how when he came back in KH3 he just accepted the apology Ienzo gave him even though Ienzo really shouldn't be taking blame for the stuff that happened when he was still a literal fucking child but, whatever I guess. I also just don't really like the fact that he comes back from being dead after KH2 at all but that's a whole other conversation

and then for Xehanort, I'm sorry but the things he experienced in DR do not in the slightest excuse the horrific stuff that he does in the current times. I understand that the things he and Eraqus when through in Dark Road were extremely traumatic and it is fine for them to still be haunted by those things even into their 80s, but for Xehanort to still be enacting on that trauma well after 60 years later, yeah that's just unacceptable. Even though he has some valid points he is still harming the lives of children for no good reason and is possibly trying to destroy the world which is obviously awful. and that's not even taking into account all the other bad shit he does like possibly torturing people like Subject X for his experiments during his time as an apprentice and him abusing both Ven and Vanitas physically and emotionally to "make them stronger." also just to be clear, I have a hard time empathizing with Eraqus as well since his trauma from DR also does not excuse the shit he pulled in BBS, but I at least respect his ability to own up to his mistakes before he dies and when he comes back in KH3, even if I still think its bullshit that he didn't give Terra any sort of apology. (sorry for how long that one was good lord)

a character I grew to love

this might surprise the people but I actually wasn't the number 1 Vanitas fan right from the start. crazy I know but when I was first getting into the series I just thought he was okay. one of the better villains but just mediocre otherwise. but then one day he just.....clicked with me, and I really couldn't tell you why. he just did and now he's my favorite son :)))

my anti otp

so besides the creepy and uh...not legal ones, i'd say a sort of shipping hot take of mine is that I don't really like any romantic pair among the sea salt trio. I really do understand the appeal Roxas and Xion in a romantic light (and I am usually also a SUCKER for a blonde and black haired pairing) but they're just so sibling coded for me that I just can't get behind it.

anyway thanks for the ask!! sorry I probably yapped more than I needed to lmao <3

If Tony was Bi Han he would have said so, iirc he was one of the first people to announce that he was a face model. I see no reason why he would hide.

Ibere is the best possibility I've seen so far, I wouldn't be surprised he's spooked by all the Bi Han thirst.

For the most part, the "Actor spooked by Bi-Han Thirst" bit was a joke on my part. Most of the time, the face models know what to expect if they google "[my character name] rule 34."

I see no real reason why Nakamura would deny being the character and no real reason why WB/NRS would not kredit him. That man is gorgeous. He's probably been handling nerd thirst since grade school.

I would think that claiming credit for Bi-Han (or any character that the internet is thirsty for) would only net him a higher paycheck. For a man who is so beautiful that companies literally hire him for his beauty, internet thirst and horny on main blogging are probably a nuisance at worst. I hope it is the least of his worries.

And I agree that Tony Chung would have said so. He has no reason not do so. Like, "Humblebrag but I am BOTH of these gorgeous motherfukkas." It isn't like he needed to hide his involvement in the game in any way - he already took credit for Scorpion.

Again, I believe the model is someone that is named in the kredits. WB has enough trouble with the actors'/trade unions right now without doing something so egregious as outright failure to credit a cast member. On the other hand, they can get away with a partial failure. If the actor's name is listed in the credits, but the credit given was for some smaller thing (Example: Additional Voices) it is harder to penalize them for that.

Because they can argue that he was in the credits, with no breech of contract.

Also, Stephen currently has bigger fish to fry, it seems. He wants to get in to the MCU as Martin Li in live action.

Claiming he was Sub-Zero's face model might help towards that goal, but more likely would hinder it. I trust him to know what's gonna help his career most. Disney / MCU wants their actors' net/film history to be squeaky clean, even for their villains. Mortal Kombat is particularly gory in its violence in a way that Spiderman is not. And let's face it, Sub-Zero is the fatality dummy. All of the worst shock-value moments are practiced on Sub-Zero first. You know the ones.

It might not be something Disney wants associated with Spider-Man.

Stephen also openly admitted that there is some legal issues that need to be addressed between videogame actors in Sag-Aftra, Sag-Aftra itself, and game developers. So there's no telling how much cooperation he gets from SAG if he does take an action toward getting himself and the other models properly credited.

I'm just saying he's one of the only people who might have logical reasons for not promoting his work on Mortal Kombat.

I can still be wrong. It's just my best guess.

Top 5 Characters That I Believe Will Appear in Twisted Wonderland

It has been a while since I wrote a theory for the blog and what better way to make one by doing something for Twisted Wonderland. A game about Disney characters that on an average day I can go from thinking "wow, this character is well-written and has development!" to "I wouldn't hesitate to hit any of them in the head with a shovel". Except for Kalim, Silver, Neige, and Chenya. Who knows? This could change.

Anyway, I will discuss how this will work. I made two lists.

The first list is Top 5 Characters That Have a Good Chance of Appearing in this App for this post.

Top 5 Characters I Would Love to See for another post.

I know there are some characters who will definitely appear while there will be other characters who will not appear. I want to be right or get close with some of these characters. Would I love to see these characters appear? Will they? Some are a yes and others are a definite no.

So, I've got a few categories and requirements for these characters.

Rules:

No family members + siblings

No one already in the game with little backstory to them

This includes unique magics.

These characters have to be from Disney

No Yuus.

Mainly students but these can be teachers

I am looking at the Japanese version of the game.

Format for each character:

What school each person goes to

If possible, what dorm they belong to

What kind of magic would they use

Possibly backstory or what could happen to the character

Whether the character could overblot or not or would cause trouble

A potential storyline for them.

With that said, let's start with the Top 5 Characters That Have a Good Chance of Appearing. With 5 being the least likely to 1 being the most likely.

5. Prince Hans

So, I have a feeling this is a glass case scenario. For those that don't know what that means, it means that when the app needs money or something big, they will pull out a big event or character or item. Hans might be in this situation.

While, he's not my favorite villain, he is a prick and it is fun to hate on pricks. Though, given on how twst puts a literal twist on the villains, it would be interesting to see what they do with this character.

An ideal storyline would be something with whatever twst Anna and Elsa are, or it could be against one of the main cast we have. I could see Leona being a potential one because of their brothers. I want Hans to hate his brothers in this version or have a struggle with them. Leona would be the best foil since while he doesn’t hold his brother in high regard, he wouldn’t do anything this extreme. This event could be between royal students, so Malleus, Kalim, and maybe Rook, Idia, or Ortho since they have connections to royals. Would he Overblot? Yes, yes he would. He would have an ego and lose his mind to. But as long as I get to punch him, I am ok with this!

This would be another SSR for Leona with a duo with Malleus. Kalim and Malleus being both the SR cards. I think for this, I am going with Rook for the R card.

So, for the school. A part of me wants another school or him to be at NRC. However, another part of me wants him to be in RSA. Much like how NRC has Kalim, Rook, and Silver, I would enjoy it if RSA had Hans who uses dark magic as his neutral, but he appears princely. It would be nice to see this kind of student there.

All in all, I can see this character debuting in the app, but I hope it is just Frozen 1. Do not give me anything more than that! I am serious! Enough is enough with Frozen! But I wouldn't hesitate to punch him at least once.

4. Mother Gothel

I think another person who has a good chance of appearing in this app is Mother Gothel. I am honestly surprised she wasn't in this app at all in the beginning. Similar to Trein, I hope she will be a teacher and maybe have kids?? But yeah, let's have another teacher at this school. The only ones holding this school together is Trein and Crewel. Sam if he gets something out of it, but Vargas and Crowely do not contribute anything in the end if you ask me. I don't know what kind of teacher I would want her to be, but it would be fitting for her to be taking care of students.

She's not my favorite villain because of how she treated Rapunzel and Eugene personally. Though, I do know the story for her would definitely be interesting, even if she is a teacher. The teachers do have good backstories, and I would love to see their pasts. She would be no different. I wonder if she does have kids that Rapunzel would attend NRC or RSA. This can also apply to Eugene as well since he could go to their school. I hope she didn't kidnap any kids….

I can see two possible stories. One, whatever goes on with the teachers down the line. We could learn about the teacher's backstories and how they're at the school. I want some kind of backstory, because all the teachers are interesting to me.

For another scenario, maybe they go to her hometown and see what she's doing, like taking the magic from Rapunzel. Though, I feel like a plot like that will be hard to do.

Overblot is possible, but I also hope not. I don't think she needs one, but if they do, it will be a wicked design. I can feel it.

As for character cards I would want Riddle to be SSR, another Lilia SR (even though he has a bunch), Vil as an SR, and the R card to be Deuce. All four have themes of families and mothers. Vil's mother left and he has no intention of finding her, Deuce's mother was recently introduced and is a caring mother at that, Lilia is a single dad, but he's had experience with raising kids. Of course, Riddle because of the relationship he has with his mother. Riddle getting a duo with Vil would be a nice touch. I genuinely want a theme of family to be explored for one time. As well as the responsibility of being a parent vs the child's view on the situation.

3. Iago

There have been references to a friend that Najma and Jamil have. This could be a throw away line, but it is entirely possible this is Iago. Out of all the villain characters, it did surprise me that Iago wasn't present. Then I thought about it, Iago isn't a villain anymore. He's actually a hero in Aladdin 2. He saved Aladdin and kicked Jafar's lamp into the lava. Though, I can see this as another Rook situation except that doesn't frick me over. I have a cat to feed! Why did you do this?!

Iago can either go to RSA or NRC because of the movies. I want to lean more RSA because I believe Aladdin's dad, Cassim, would be there. Iago is in a similar situation to Rook. Sure, the hunter did was tasked with killing Snow White, but he ended up protecting her. Iago did steal the lamp, but he did kill genie Jafar by pushing his lamp into the lava. So, it would be interesting. I also want to see a bird beastman. Since we have Kifaji, I would be nice to see another one. That's just me though. I think his magic could be either dark or light magic since Iago's been both a hero and a villain. I want him to have a duo with Jamil.

Anyway, it is clear that he would have some relationship to Jamil and Najma at the very least. He might even know Kalim. For the story, I think it would be a return to the Scalding Sands. A party at Kalim's place that his family hosts. He steals something that is important to them and could create a kind of mystery element to it. Like the murder mystery plots except no one is dead. When they do find out it is him, he would Overblot. Then, everything will be fine, because Kalim would say so.

So, the only issue is Jamil's 3rd birthday card has a picture of Iago. Now, we don't know if this means Jamil is also Iago. I personally hope not, because there is potential of him to be a great character. If it does, then that's fine too. I would love Jamil to have a friend that would understand his situation. The closest friend he has is Ruggie, but it would be nice.

2. Prince Rielle + Falena

This is where I break a rule, but I want to know what both looked like. Mainly, because these two are iconic Disney characters. Even if one of them died. Regardless, both are important characters to the stories of Leona and Azul. As of this moment, I don't know if either will appear in the manga, but it would honestly be nice to see either of them. Heck, they could even debut in the anime. We still don't know what the anime is about at the moment either, so we could get more characters.

So, both attended RSA. I don't know if they will Overblot since we haven't seen anyone from that school Overblot. Heck, we haven't seen anyone with light magic Overblot. If any of these two has a chance to Overblot, I would say Rielle. They could do a lot with his character.

Rielle will have an amazing father and has older brothers who I imagine are accomplished singers and mages. I'd imagine he would feel insecure. Let's not forget that all he can do is sing. Ariel didn't have a lot of other talents either, so I believe he was feel some insecurity. I know the popular theory is that he bullied Azul, and that makes a lot of sense. Azul is a smart mage and has a lot of talent. He runs a competent restaurant and subscription service at the age of 17 and understand economics! Either way, I could see Rielle having an Overblot.

As for the story, I would honestly love another singing competition with him staring in it with his other siblings. Of course, Octavinelle would arrive, I would love to see Vil again, and Neige too. Who knows if Rielle would apologize or not to Azul, but the pressure of his brothers and what he did could trigger an Overblot.

As for Falena, I feel like something would have to happen to his wife, Cheka, or Leona. I was kind of disappointed with the Leona's home event that we didn't get to see him. Though, for some odd reason, a prequel Lion King movie is in the works, so we could see Falena? I have no clue really. The potential story would be some trouble happening in the country and that means Leona has to return home to help. Something goes wrong and causes Falena to Overblot. I could see some bonding moments between him and Leona.

Should clarify, I don't think they'll Overblot or not everyone needs an Overblot. There are ways to write for one to occur, but

For cards, I think any are fine. To be honest, the current cards are also fine to deal with these events as well. Rielle and Falena could have common SSR cards, but I would love Cheka to cameo in Falena's card at least. Please?

1. Captain Hook

This character is honestly a surprise. Where is he? Even more so, since we even have the fairies. Though, the fairies are fae and I believe Pixie Hollow exist. Whether Peter Pan and the lost boys do is another issue all together. Regardless, out of all the main villains that Disney markets in their merchandise and even at stores in the parks, Captain Hook isn't in the app. The only other two not in this app are Chernabog and Oogie Boogie. While all 3 are popular, Captain Hook is probably the more well known. Look, I love Fantasia and that's why I know Chernabog as well as his two boss fights in KH. Oogie Boogie is popular too from his movie, Hot Topic, and Kh, but I think Captain Hook is known more. You can argue about who should be there, but for me, I think Captain Hook needs to be the next big villain to be added.

I want this captain to attend NRC. I want him to be a student so bad. I feel like he would absolutely hate the twins while he's cautious of Azul. I want him to either have a pirate sword or a gun. If anyone argues that is violent, Ortho threatened to destroy the school and doxx them. Of course, his neutral magic would be darkness. I feel like he would be strict with the rules or be more mature than most of the students. Then, he would do something dorky that proves he still has some growing up to do.

Oh mans, the theme of growing up would be amazing to explore. I know there is a theory that the player's dorm is the captain Hook's one, but I don't think so. It could be, but I don't know. If any dorm he should belong to is Heartslabyul. Both stories are from messed up British authors and both would have themes of growing up and following your own path as well as adhering to the rules. Of course, he would have a fancy outfit, and now that I think about it, I wonder how he would've reacted to Savanaclaw dressing up as pirates. I know Azul, Floyd, or Jade have a line about it, but it would be curious to see.

Alright, backstory time. He's not that rich and had to grow up fast. I imagine a similar situation to Ruggie. He does have many jobs and has made some connections. He took care of kids in the orphanage he grew up in and uses his magic for them. He knows a lot of stories like those of heroes who steal from the rich and give to the poor.

His unique magic would have something to do with his abilities to organize or command a crew. "All Hands on Deck!" he gives a command and the command must be fulfilled before he can cast another one.

I have no idea of Mr. Smee would appear, but he would definitely be his second in command.

Also, yes, he would overblot. There's just no way he wouldn't. I recall the KH boss fights with him. Those were fun, so I can see the same thing happening here.

And now for the story reason he would Overblot. There's a treasure that students want to find on an island. Of course, they run into the fairies who cause them trouble. Then, they could encounter Hook and Smee. They race to find the treasure and slowly but surely, Hook is starting to lose it and Overblots to get the treasure and get rid of those who don't get out of his way or listen to him. Afterwards, maybe they'll take him with them back to the school.

I could see Ruggie, Trey, Jade, and Jamil being the cards for this kind of event. Ruggie would be my choice for the SSR since he would relate the most to him. Trey and Jamil being the SR, Jamil being the duo to Ruggie. Trey is an older brother and I want to see that explored. Jamil and his life would also reflect well with Hook. Jade is the R card, because I could see him helping Smee more than Hook but also wanting the treasure for his brother and Azul.

Wow, I was really passionate about this character. Well, that's it for those I believe have a huge chance of being in this App. I think these characters are the most likely to debut and have such interesting storylines to go with them as well. Honestly, I can't even wait to see what we get from the new events alone!
