Some headcanons and lore tidbits regarding Blue Moon and Martian: Paranormal Agents

A lot of WISP's aesthetic, such as assigning codenames and using gadgets disguised as mundane objects, is purely a creative choice and have little actual impact on their operations; they are excellent spies and paranormal detectives, but they are also a bunch of nerds.

Speaking of gadgets, said gadgets are provided by Acme and designed and delivered by Wile E. Coyote, aka Agent Canis Latinicus.

Other notable agents of Artemis' branch are Agents Arsenic and Old Lace, better known as Dr. Lorre and Witch Hazel respectively. They keep tabs on the knowledge accrued by WISP in their missions and pretty much handle anything science or magic related.

The real name of the Area 51 mole I designed previously, Agent Saffron Sun, is Apollonia Aether.

Often when Artemis and Marvin take on a mission in another country, they'll meet up with agents from local WISP branches, typically given codenames that reflect the culture of that country (for example: British agents named for British cryptids or fairies, Japanese agents named for yokai, etc.)

Artemis is something of an anime fan, and has two favorite in-universe shows she typically references: Uchuujin Rose, a yuri romance between a human woman and an alien that reflects her situation with Marvin, and Luna Lisa and the Mystic Agents, a sort of Sailor Moon/Totally Spies inspired series with a paranormal twist that she watched as a kid and inspired her to become a WISP agent.

Marvin has a habit of taking on new hobbies or learning little party tricks that actually end up becoming useful in unexpected ways during missions, especially if he's in a situation where he has to save himself without Artemis' help.

As nervous as going on missions can make him, Marvin really likes learning about the weirder, supernatural side of Earth. He's also quite fond of traveling to Earth locations he hasn't seen before.

Marvin is the character most likely to actually use various pronouns for Artemis. Most people who know her usually default to she/her, and strangers usually ere on the side of caution defaulting to they/them, but Marvin will use both of these, as well as he/him, in an almost equal amount. There's an implication that nonbinary gender is a lot more normalized among Martians, or at least that Marvin doesn't need to put too much effort into understanding it.

Artemis is definitely the type to try being suave and dashing to impress his crush but then just gets flustered and fumbles.

The thing that brings Artemis and Marvin together most, both as love interests and mission partners, is curiosity and an eagerness to learn. They bond over acquiring new knowledge over the course of their adventures, as well as exchanging knowledge they already had beforehand. They're pretty much the kind of couple that could spend hours infodumping to each other and would watch video essays together. (They're autism4autism Your Honor.)

Ironic that this would have been after "Looney Tunes" introduced Dr. Lorre.

Der Verlorene (1951)

A little appreciation for the set design of Dr. Rothe's laboratory. From my first viewing I was instantly drawn to how this looks and feels like an actual biology lab (and I should know, having spent many years working in them). I can practically smell the wood and paint of this place, and the mix of ethanol, glycerin, resin, solvent, stains, glue, blood, cigarettes or any other volatiles they happen to be working with that day. This is not your typical movie mad science of colorful bubbling flasks and random equipment of uncertain function, but a real space where actual experiments are conducted.

I dunno. This feels intensely familiar to me, somehow.

Gorgeous work, and done during breaks makes this all the more marvelous to me. Such skill & artistry you have. I love seeing Peter Lorre in these guises and inspirations.

Some gratuitous and indulgent doodles I drew during some of my work breaks:

hello cabinet of dr caligari fans I invite you to watch this totally normal spongebob clip

[quanatural]

Doodle time🎵

P1:I paid tribute to this classic picture with my own painting style. But I think I just did a subtraction on the basis of the original picture.By the way, I referred to Ugarte for Peter Lorre here, because I think Ugarte is more suitable to attend the original party.

P2:I really like Peter Lorre, who is not bald in Mad Love trailer ... Oh, look at his little expression and chubby body curled up together! !

P3:Old Hollywood fans around me say Peter Lorre is like a puffer fish ...🐡🐡So, as you wish?I think this design is very interesting. Maybe I will continue to draw.hh.

P4:Just Professor Karl with sexy lips.

p5:I am practicing drawing Gogol.

Finally, these are reference pictures.

Guess what I got! The recording scripts for all of the episodes of Spongebob season 13!! Gang gang

I got it from some guy from YouTube. He said this was leaked on internet archive and Nick tried to scrub it clean off the interwebz. He managed to salvage some and he gave me a link. His account was gone before I had an opportunity to say thank you, so now I have it. I'm sharing it here because idgaf if my account gets taken down lol. But also no one checks tumblr anyways.

I made sure to print out the Slappy Daze recording script because idgaf about the other episodes tbh. I only care about my beloved Peter Lorre fish's day in the limelight <3 I put it in this plastic slip and keep it in a nice binder. It's my most prized possession besides Slappy's character sheet. I also have the Squidferatu script as well.

To be honest a lot of these scripts are pretty similar to the final product of the episode. There are some minor differences like Slappy wasn't originally in the script for There Will Be Grease. Instead it was supposed to be some nerdy fish asking if everything juice will make him sound more manly. Bless whoever snuck Slappy in there because you all remember me tweaking for a week when the episode came out because I was so happy Slappy got a part in the song lol.

Also the episode Upturn Girls was originally titled City Cetaceans.

Slappy Daze is pretty near identical to the final product tbh. Nothing really changed besides a few words. I am fascinated by the fact that the first draft is dated as being July 30th 2021. By that point I already fully and completely developed Slappy brain worms and was already considering watching Lorre's movies to get my fix cuz the airings of the Patrick show were frustrating. Ahh the good ol days <3

I also do believe Slippy (Slappy's female counterpart) was made for Slappy Daze originally though. The episode gives a physical description of Slippy which makes me think she just made for the moment. I think she was added to Mid-Season Finale in The Patrick Star Show episode afterwards but Mid-Season Finale aired first. Nickelodeon actually did mess up with this episode and released it on DVD before it officially aired. Now the pieces are coming together. This is only interesting to me lol.

Spongebob fans are such h8rs fr. Where else would you find THE original dreamy haired emo boy Cesare the Somnanbulist working as an assistant for the primary care physician fish Dr. Caligari? I would LOVE for Cesare to rid me of my allergies😤😤

Squidferatu actually has the most differences between the script and the final product. Plus plenty of interesting details. Squidferatu actually has two scripts, part one and part two.

The first and most important detail to me is the fact that Slappy is still named "Laszlo". You've seen Slappy's character sheet where it mentions he was formerly named "Laszlo" (obviously a reference to Peter Lorre's birth name Laszlo Löwenstein).

But in the Squidferatu scripts you can actually find the EXACT moment where his name changes from Laszlo to Slappy. It all has to do with one specific gag.

These both are the same scene. The left side is from Squidferatu part 1 and the right is Squidferatu part 2.

I do think they absolutely fumbled the name Laszlo. There are enough cartoon characters named Slappy. Laszlo is much much cuter and brings the Lorre reference full circle but oh well.

I also keep forgetting to mention but the villager in Squidferatu who begs Spongebob and Squidward not to go to the castle was intended to be the same villager in the 1931 Dracula who warns Renfield, who actually was based on a villager from the 1922 Nosferatu who warns Thomas Hutter. This character respawned in 3 different pieces of media. I think he's the true star of this episode lol.

There is also the fact that carriage driver in Squidferatu is confirmed to be Nosferatu! I feel like this fact is obvious enough if you're familiar with Dracula media (1922 Nosferatu, 1931 Dracula, or even just reading the book) the count is always the carriage driver duh

Also the fact that in this episode he hisses like a vampire, is strangely humanoid, and briefly has the Nosferatu™ eyebrows which fully gives it away. Unfortunately the folks on the SB wiki do not agree >:((

The first time I saw the carriage driver I said "ohh he kinda bad" and you know what? I'm not retracting my statement. He IS a baddie. I'm tired of lying to myself otherwise.

Anyways this caused me to come up with a headcanon that Nosferatu is broke and likely does not pay Slappy. I mean that explains why Nos has taken on shifts at the Krusty Krab, but also explains why Slappy is working 2 jobs in The Patrick Star Show. I imagine property taxes on a castle really drains a vampire's family fortune. I'm getting off topic.

There are some extra gags that didn't make it into the episode.

There's also the fact that we've been robbed of Erik from the Phantom of The Opera giving the audience a cute wink uwu
