#fluffybird is also real <3

[ghostlysage]

i am a woman of many fandoms 🤭

for today we have: old puppet show i really liked and i can finally DRAW THEM, gay people… (@/a-cryptid-called-magetha gave the nme salesman the name jin and the rest is history 💗), and then an old show i need to rewatch because the characters slap and kitty is so gnc (MERCHIN IS THE BEST, FIGHT ME)

[sillysadduck]

When you meet the CEO of Fluffybird you must shake him by the hand ~

Why hello there :D I forced my aunt to watch DHMIS with me (we watched Friendship and Electricity), she said that it was too bizarre and chaotic for her, her favorite character is Yellow tho :]

I showed her your drawings of the Real Family Guy (how I call the trio) going out to snow, he melted over it <3 Btw, Red with bowies on his head, Yellow brushing the hair of a teddy bear and Yellow being carried by Red I cannot-

Also, I spent the whole the day with an fan-episode that could replace Family, Parenting ! An episode where this dysfuctionally-loving family meet a paper family (yknow, those with the hands glued to each other ?) who instead of convincing them that they are not a family, they try to convince them that they aren't a healthy family ! How dare they ?

So the rest of the episode goes on with the family trying to teach Red and Duck how to properly raise a child, at the end of the day the totally healthy family that we love and care about kills the Paper Family by shredding their arms, they bleed to death.

Anyways, uh, they take a family picture at the end of the episode; how's your day ?

GOD I LOVE THIS SO MUCH JSHFHF THEYRE SUCH A DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY ALSO AWWW I'M SO GLAD YOUR AUNT LIKED MY ART♡♡

congrats on being second worst parents of the year, guys (worst one is Roy but at least these two try their... okayest. Maybe not their best)

aw I'd love to draw a family picture of them when I get back to digital art they make me so soft </3 AND ALSO I love your idea I would definitely read a fanfic about it 🙌🏻🙌🏻 theyre so insane wtf I love them

[account-name]

finally watching episode 6 of dhmis so i guess i'm liveblogging my reaction

aaaaaa no theme song, already super creepy

i've already seen some spoilers so i know the mysterious lady is apparently named lesley (leslie?) but super excited to see more of her

in my ✨personal home shredder✨

all three of them are so dumb <3

"but i'm going to take all the light bulbs and the cds and electric whisk with me. is that cool?"' "what the hell are you gonna do with them-"

nooooo not their animal :((((

also wow pet reveal

WHAT ABOUT MY SHREDDER

insurance guy needs more appreciation

is there anything here that isn't sentient?

also what

i don't know what is happening but :(( poor yellow guy

i have no words rn but i have so many questions

ITS HER

LESLEY

shes so creepy i love her

MEAT MAN

NOOOOOOOO TONY

i think lesley is my new favorite character

wAIT IS THIS THE GAY PART

OMGOMGOMG

MFKEX JEXL ELPJBSBSUPEJsmJindslsSHHXXHk

IT GOT GAY AAAA

FLUFFYBIRD REAL

ok so there's the obvious question of what was in the book and if lesley knew he was going to shred it all along and if he knew what he was doing but also

how tf did he shred that entire book like that

that must be a very powerful shredder

as always i have no idea what i just watched but wow

i'm definitely gonna need to rewatch everything now because i have so many questions

also did lesley create roy??? if so then why?? and what does episode 6 of the youtube series mean with this?? was that real?? is that even the same canon as the tv show?? so many questions

i'm not great at coming up with any actual theories but wow i have no clue what is going on

really hope there's gonna be more episodes eventually

[maestro-of-clockwork]

i had a metaphorical shower thought and i really got to thinking about the teachers' identities a little bit ago

mostly i only focus on the story/plot and not much identities and stuff but here are ideas i feel like are canon in my interpretation.

1. fluffybird is real, and ryan & dawson are doi's step-parents. they're cisgender

2. i feel like larry is a demi-boy/man, panromantic (prefers guys/guy-identifying people tho. no particular reason ofc, he just imagines himself with them more often). other than that, i feel like he's still ace

3. i feel like colin would be cisgender, ace and homoromantic

4. i'm not sure whether or not larry & colin would be in a relationship because i can also see them as lifelong partners, so i guess it could be either way

5. baron would be a cishet ally

6. frederick would be gay

7. shrignold would be cishet, and gender non-conforming (and dawson is also gender non-conforming like tv series)

[pasta-yy]

episode 3 of the webseries is... certainly something.

I quite like it to be honest, I came for the really bad stuff, stayed for the lore (and fluffybird haha) and then got whipped in the face by "Family"

(I watched this episode a week ago so apologies if this is inaccurate anywhere)

The start of the episode is golden. The "no, you have to guess" and after red got the answer correct duck still demanded the third guess to which red guy get's wrong (obviously?) and then yellow guy and duck is all like "HAH you lose"

beautiful, love this episode already. Their relationship is absolutely comedic and wonderful.

Also Yellow and Red chanting "OPEN IT! OPEN IT!"

Then we get into the twins, Todney and Lilly. They seem pretty cute I guess. I could do fine without any of the piss jokes though. Didn't complete undermine the episode, but I'd rather do without them.

They're just talking about family and how their group ain't a family and is just a clump or a group or whatever. Red guy just stands up and knocks over his chair and starts shouting something like, "I knew it! I knew I'm not supposed to be living with these guys. They're not even red! I should be around people who look like me!" yeah red just really does not want to be here. I don't know if he actually hates the other two? But I think this is one of the first episodes where red guy is REALLY into the lesson. I mean he went along with a few before but he seems absolutely INVESTED in this lesson here. I don't know, maybe he just really wants to meet his family? feel accepted by those of his kind? did he face some sort of estrangement before this? Does he just. Want to leave the other two because he thinks they're annoying? or maybe it's not about the people but the possibility of living somewhere else? away from the torture? I don't know

anyway, Todney and Lilly invite the three over, and red guy sounds pretty enthusiastic, as well as yellow guy.

duck guy, however, is more concerned with getting home. I don't remember why, could be related to the Chuddle Dollops though. Or maybe he has the brain cell today and also thinks that this place is awfully ominous. sadly, we don't really get to hear the autotune in his distressed voice anymore. That autotune honestly was pretty great. "somethings... wrOnG"

The grandma then starts screeching and ringing bells, and everyone starts enthusiastically chanting "Family game time! Family game time!" Everyone except duck, at least.

They play their family game, and Yellow guy is allowed to play as well, using mother's piece.

When duck, deciding that it's time to go home, tries to take the piece away, grandma starts screaming (again) and he is told that he has to leave.

Unfortunately for him, the others don't really want to go. Red guy still being hellbent on meeting his "real family" and yellow guy just kind of tagging along with the lessons, as he usually does.

Duck is then teleported back to the house, all by himself. I guess he got home like he wanted to?

then we see the family tree, and then the tree starts taking red's blood? I'm guessing that tree feeds off people's blood to grow. maybe to keep fueling the family? so the tree can keep growing for more space for pictures of dead family members? Maybe there's some form of crowd control trying to pick off the family members to keep them from growing rabid or something. I don't know

red guy then goes insane. a bit later he sees his supposed family, and in the scene, he's just. not being accepted. this seems to be a bit of a recurring theme, with episode 6 of the webseries and the workplace. I might come back to this in a future post.

back to duck guy, we see him talking to some bread. Trying to get in the family I suppose? I think he feels left out by the others frankly. The others are probably out having fun with their new families, and he's here. all alone. with a family meal he can eat by himself, just slowly. I mean I think he's content with his current life with the others. Just him and you and me. He just really wanted to go home, and tried to convince the others to go with him. I think that's a little touching honestly

Back where yellow is, the twins are measuring their height, and invite yellow guy to join them. Even though yellow went along with them earlier in the episode, he's much more reluctant now. He's more nervous and he keeps asking about his friends??? "Weren't- weren't there two others with me earlier???" He just. He just wants to be with his friends??? Even in episode 6 of the webseries, he's begging the lamp to stop singing from the beginning of the episode. In every other episode though, he just. goes along with it? I think he just feels safe around the other two?? He knows that he'll be perfectly fine when he's with the others (although that's not exactly true but you know) and he really trusts the others???

I think there's some form of brainwashing the family is trying though. Ever since the beginning of the episode, they've been strangely inclusive to yellow? and none of the others? as for the reason why they chose him specifically, could it be that he's always been more submissive than the others? have they seen what's been going on in the past? I mean they quite conveniently popped up when seeing the "family sized bag" of chuddle dollops. Or maybe that's just cartoon logic in action. I don't know.

But do you think the other members of the family were also outside people, suddenly brought in and brainwashed? are the only real members of the family the twins?? Were the others unable to escape, and were brainwashed into being part of the family? That'd be interesting.

Then Roy shows up, eats the family (and maybe the chicken?) and yellow finds himself back at the house with the others, and their bag of chuddle dollops. a wonderful scene, honestly.

The two dollops fall out and onto the table, and you can literally SEE how taken aback yellow guy was.

"I guess we could sha-"

"I WANT BOTH"

001 FOR THR ASK THING I NEED TO KNOW

Here have this incoherent ramble <333

Favorite character: DON’T MAKE ME CHOOSE! AAAAAAAAAA

When I first got into it I really liked Duck, then I grew to really like Yellow, but now… I can’t choose no matter the situation. They’re all my lovely skrungly gremlins, I love them equally, yet in… different ways? Same love, but… different reasons.

Least Favorite character: …………………..the larvae creature from webseries 3. Real ones will get it.

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon):

********DEEPLY INHALES********

Well. You know I don’t… se the characters the same ways that you do. Of course, specifically Yellow and his age. And I deeply respect you for your views, as well as your ships.

I… I quite like fluffybird. It’s nice, ‘classic’. It realy got me into the fandom and I fiit funny. Red and Duck are like those two friends where they both get up  to mad shit when unattended together. Old man yells at old man. Wonderful. Noit much can be said that hasn’t been said already, really. And also, along with that, lately I’ve really been liking….. imma call it rubberduck.

Kind of fruity to longingly look at a picture of your dead mate, hand on your heart, while sitting on his bed and singing longingly about your old life together. Kinda fruity to wear his overcoat and be so grief-stricken that you grab a shovel to dig him up.

Third, uh…. LOVEBUG! I’m as sucker for LoveBug because realistically Warren could NOT pull Shrignold but it’s funny to imagine the most homophobic little insect falling for the grossest ickiest boy ever and believing him  to be a miracle sent from Malcolm himself.

…………………………………………I’m also a PaperWiresandClockwork enthusiast because I believe in ‘make love, not war’. I don’t like seeing people fight over Padlock and DigitalTime, it’s kind of…. Uncomfortable? Especially when genders are brought up. From my own pansexual perspective I see no problem why Tony shouldn’t be with either of them. Unless he’s related to one or one was actually a child, which isn’t likely. Also TimeChild is their son <3 he has his Clock Dad’s posh accent, his Computer Dad’s technological advancement, and his Paper Mum’s creativity.

Fifth….. Lesley and Roy. I like the idea of them being bitter eldritch divorces fighting over the custody of their creations [and son], but I also like their Padlock-esque darkness, where they beat the shit out of eachother and end up fine a second later.

Character I find most attractive: ………again, Christ, don’t make me choose between these cringefail grimy loser men……. With their stupid cute mullet and old man twead dress sense and a literal nudist.

Character I would marry: ………….there’s three of them…………… I can have three wives…………. Wow…………………….

Character I would be best friends with: Hmm… Sketchbook. She seems really chill in comparison to the other teachers and I think I’d get along with them. Also Grampa Chooch [my name for Transport Guy]. Because he’s funny. But in all honesty I want to be friends with all of them because they’re all  so dear to my heart <3

A random thought: Yum yum yum

An unpopular opinion: uh…………………… creativity is creativity, as long as it’s not illegal or would be deemed illegal if it was real.

My Canon OTP: 1920 [Roy and Lesley’s shipname, which I like a lot so props to whoever came up with it]

My Non-canon OTP: ………..FluffyBird has not been officially confirmed, it is basically confirmed but not properly. Also RubberDuck.

Most Badass Character: Duck. I don’t even need to explain he’s just so slay. The serve. Go girl give us nothing.

Most Epic Villain: Lesley. Sorry Roy but she is absolutely serving in that outfit. The reveal. The absolute glamour.

Pairing I am not a fan of: uh………. I’m pretty chill with it. I’m even chill with Claire. I’m  just not fond of incestuous/predatory ships. At all. In fact they can go into the greasefire.

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): …no one? They’re all done pretty well to me, there’s not much to add here.

Favourite Friendship: Red and Yellow. Despite me literally F/O-ing the Three of Them, I like Yellow and Red being friends to each other, friends so tight they share a love. Slay.

Character I most identify with: …the reason I love the three is how deeply I relate to all, but all in different ways.

Red because of his deep need to find others ‘like him’, but when he does… they end up not liking him. As a foster child, who never knew much of my own family at all, but then meeting my dad’s side it just… it gets me in the gut every time.

With Duck, it’s the annoyance. I can be annoying, I can awfully blunt, and unknowingly mean without ever even knowing it.

With Yellow… it’s the constant bashing he gets for being him and for accidental mishaps. He just wants to create, be it music or paintings, but nobody wants to let him flourish, they won’t let him think. Sometimes it hurts when I try to think, when it’s too loud or I’m overstimulated.

Character I wish I could be: OATS. REAL ONES’LL GET IT.

[myshredda]

HahaHAAAAAAAAAAAA, prepare yourself for the worst text formatting, and the most basic songs ever 🫡 (Smart)Yellow: Cursed - Jacob lee. Red: The Grace - Neverending White Lights / Twenty Twelve - Matt Maeson. Duck: Close - Crying. Fluffybird: Little hell - City and Colour/Lover Dearest - Marianas Trench / Dancing after death - Matt Maeson (the stripped version is also rly good). How to sleep - EDEN (the deep stitches of a nightmare). There you go! Hope you enjoy <3 -🍓🍷

Sorry this took me so long to answer but I had to like pull up genius and hyperfocus on the lyrics while listening just to get the full vibes, so: absolutely YES to all. You're very good at picking up on little bits of characterizations in songs and connecting them in a way that makes like perfect sense. Like it's kind of amazing.

Smart Yellow 🥲 "Leave my secrets alone/They aren't for you to know/I hear the knock at my door/As they make me vacate my bones" like.....its literally him having the batteries ripped out.....

Neverending White Lights really is SUCH a Red song, good god. Like the "I'll get back to you/God knows I try" bit compared to Red calling the house in ep 6 of the youtube series i'm dying i'm dead. AND Twenty Twelve oh my god. The apathy...the flavor....

AND CLOSE???? "what has passed in between our telephones will undo/two years of mysteries but i still think of you/as my favorite friend" HELP? I'M DYING? the whole fucking song really omg...

And all the fluffybird ones are sooo delcious and angsty gdflhl

City and Colour are oldschool faves of mine so I was like YEAH!!!! when I saw Little Hell on this list ur so fucking right. There IS a degree of difficulty in dealing with me!!

AND THE OPENING OF DANCING AFTER DEATH IS SO THEM LIKE "this place is a hole but i don't want to go/i wish we could stay here forever alone" so real. so so SO real. Also Dancing After Dark is so good like the vibes? the themes??? so real.

AND!!!! You picked one for my fic??? 😭❤️ and it fits so fucking well????? like "how do you love when you're frightened?/the thought of me fucking up all these threads" is so incredibly on theme fjlgfkd like yeah that's red that's my special little guy with emotional trauma and ptsd forever 🥰

Congratulations on having like incredible taste and a huge brain!!!!
