Featuring my headcanons I love him forever

[shmuzzieheart]

Would love to hear about your Picani head canons :D

One headcanon I've kind of had for awhile is that Picani's parents did a really good job raising him and he has a good relationship with them as an adult. HOWEVER, I also like the idea that maybe he didn't have the best relationship with them, and that issue led him to want to become a therapist. Maybe they didn't like him watching cartoons, so his interest in them now comes from him trying to do what he couldn't as a kid. He could also be focused on couples therapy because his parents didn't get along, and he was inspired to become a therapist because he saw how unhappy they were together and he doesn't want other couples to go through that.

I also kind of headcanon that he has a small circle of close friends, but people who see him regularly are all friendly acquaintances with him. Like, you can't not like him. Everywhere in town he visits regularly the people there are used to seeing him around talking about cartoons and they're all charmed by him.

I also like the idea that he's aro/ace somewhat. I love characters who are involved/associated with romantic love in some way, but aren't interested in a relationship themselves.

I don't remember exactly when I first decided to watch Cartoon Therapy, but I remember being surprised by what it actually was. I was right on the basics of it, I figured it be some sort of cartoon analysis, but I wasn't expecting it to have a storyline. I think I rewatched both episodes several times over that week.

Honestly though, it's been a while since I've watched it. But I remember a few points from each episode hitting home. And usually that's what I talk about in these little letters. Lessons I've learned from the episodes or the characters.

This one is different though. It's coming up on a year of therapy for me and I can honestly say Dr. Picani made the idea of starting less scary for me.

I do not like new things. They terrify me. But I was in a place where I needed help and I needed like ten years ago kind of I needed help. So I sat down and I watched both episodes of Cartoon Therapy then I started looking at options for therapy.

I knew it wouldn't be the exact same, but it gave me enough of an idea of what to expect to be able to reach out. I still have such a long ways to go in my healing journey, but I took the first steps and those are so very important.

So, Dr. Picani, on your birthday, I want to say thank you. Thank you for teaching me that I can be someone special all on my own, thank you for teaching me that I have value inherent to me as a person, ans thank you for giving me the courage I needed to get help.

And thank you so very much to @thatsthat24 for sharing this wonderful series and these amazing characters with us all.

Found Joan's cap they used in "Can Lying Be Good?" Maybe it's a good potential hat style for Picani?

Hot-est "Side?"

Last time (without polls) the results were a battle to the death between Logan and Janus. Logan won by the skin of his apparently sexy sexy teeth. I feel its time for a rematch without room for human fallacy (me literally just going through the notes and counting) LETS GOOO: (Including some bonuses for fun)

DR. EMILE PICANI YOU SLEEP IN THE WHAT?! 💀💀

[noblest-roman-of-them-all]

Hey there, Dr. Picani.

What a year it has been since I last wrote to you. I wanted this letter to have a bit more energy and oopmh to it, but I'm afraid I don't that in my right now. I still wanted to wish you a happy birthday though, so

Happy Birthday!

I know in the first letter I mentioned how you helped me feel a little less afraid of the concept of therapy and that helped me get started in therapy and I even went to group therapy for a while. But then I moved and my therapist went on sabbatical and I've done some self therapy, done a little bit of book work, done some reading, I even done a little bit of art therapy on my own!

But I think you know where this is going...I'm kind of afraid to go back to therapy again. It's going to be a lot of new things and this time I'd be going into it with some...pretty hefty diagnoses. And I don't really know what to expect anymore. I'm gonna be honest, part of me just wishes you could be my therapist. As a writer myself I really appreciate your use of stories in therapy it does make it a lot easier to externalize and process that way.

I...kinda feel like Aang. I have doubt about whether or not I'm capable of being who I need to be, but for myself. But I also know that I am capable of growth, even if I'm not that person now, I can become them. I don't always believe it, but I know it. And I know that because of the lessons you've taught me.

It...maybe a little while before I'm really ready to take on therapy again, as much as I know I could use the support, I'm still a little afraid of it. But in the mean time, I'm going to continue using the resources I have on hand, I'm going to do my best to be mindful of my beliefs about myself, and I'm going to continue to create the art that I love. And I'm going to do it all knowing that even if you can't actually be my therapist, that you'd be proud of me. That you'd be supportive and encouraging of my growth and progress, however small it is or seems to be. And that helps and it means a lot to me.

So on your birthday, I want to say thank you so, so much for every lesson you've taught me and for believing in me. I have a sneaking suspicion that your birthday wish for me might be to get the help I need, just a guess based off your talk with Elliot, and I will work on looking into it soon. But for now, happy birthday and I hope you can get one of those cartoon looking cakes. You definitely deserve it.

And thank you to @thatsthat24 for sharing this wonderful character ans series with all of us. This series has truly, truly made my life so much better.
