Sling Set 7, June 20X6

Claire de Flume

Our summer trip for all the zoomates in Central Park Zoo to Hori-Zones indoor water park hit a flat in the bus dept, all the tires!

The weatherwoman Absol almost Wilded out undressing herself in the news station when her forecast called for extreme heat, 115°F!

Every furry critter got popcorned with their fur fuzzed and stewing in their sweat, and the arctic ones were stocking ice as if the World was melting! Even the reptiles panicked cuz of all that sun and multiple moltings!

WE NEEDED OUR POOLTIME!

😮💡

Wait…Didn’t Gene n I use that outdoor tub on the Stuyvesant girl when some imp possessed her & her can gal Tina? filled it with enough salt n sand to make a beach n lure a rabid raccoon w/ a naked mongoose cashier lady, demon b gone! Tonia’s got plenty water fun stuff for the dogs she trains at her obedience classes, and that slide her dad gave her for the playground cud b an attraction at the zoo, plus maybe the Arises could spare a few giant ice blocks for our makeshift ACs in holed-out coolers from the frisbee dudes visiting from Brooklyn! We still owe that mongoose 4 the striptease bait, we’ll offer a go at our exclusive Park Zoo waterpark rides no charge? If Alice lets us, that is. She was happy to oblige mostly cuz her makeup wuz running, and some inhabitants were willing to make their spaces into attractions and pools with some summer gear of their own!

Then it’s settled: one Gimungo Water Park at CPZ for the whole damn summer, all residents n tourists looking for cool welcome!

2 weeks time, the grand opening of Central Air Water Park Zoo was in full swing! It wasnt Hori-Zones, but we pulled off wut we could with the junk from neighbors’ garages and the shed. Got the firefighters and mayor in on the action, securing permits to connect hoses to the hydrants and into the zoo’s main water system. And we made sure to direct those hottest of dogs to the chillest parts of the zoo, mainly the Polar Bear & Penguin habitats, but we added saunas in the desert and rainforest habitats for the tanners and steamers. Shame we had to charge $10 or $20 on All day passes for our guests, but 2-4 single scoop cones from a malt shoppe per guest/group wud b enough charity to pay for new bus tires after tarring on the blacktop!

While ringtail Gene ran the cashbox by the main gate, Matt & I played lifeguards with his dog cop buddies, thanks of officer Francine Doberman’s training, when she busted some fairground robbers at Coney Island last summer. Wigless, too: she didn’t want her hairpiece ruined by all that chlorine. And had to keep the gulpin poking out her bellybutton, Gulliver, from drinking “stew water” or it digested some unpleasing meat. I was keeping a sharp eye on Fenneko. My coworker was in heat looking to hook up “swim buddies” , like the two bros with their frisbee matches. I needed to make sure she didn’t try tasting their beef when she’s steaming!

Two hours into the Big Summer Chill-a-Thon, I seem to have lost one ringtail cat. Last I heard, Gene left the admission box to a Guagsire that also sold ice cream for the young guests. This one hippo lady, far too young to be in her golden years, haggled an orange sherbet cream pop as an entry fee for $15. The slimy blue newt took the twofer, but didn’t suck in the refreshing relief in its mouth just yet, rather it smeared it on its steaming forehead before biting into it! Not enough dough or a favor from this grueling heat, she made a bargain on that fee!

No wait, that’s Greta Dee, the sweet-loving elderly woman down in Hell’s Kitchen! Moved to New York from London five months back, set up her family’s candy store, Dee’s Luscious Sweet Shoppe, in the most rotten part of the Big Apple! Can’t b safe for any kid or adult geting their goodies and not b unalived by a crook!

I heard thru the grapvine that delectable granny was a witch of sorts with her assorted candies, not only did she smooth out her wrinkles & fat to a fetching pear shape, the sweets in her shoppe seem irresistable to not buy. That or, like in Hansel & Gretel, she was luring unwiting victims to make her goodies with animal sacrifices or sum sh!t

I’m in no mood for urban legends out of fairytales, not like I had enough urban fantasy adventures in my life without the ringtail going off on his A-side story. I got a needless b-plot as temporary lifeguard saving some unwiting college broskis from getting STDs from my horny-ass coworker. With her tiny size, she’ll play Lost Preschooler and get those meatheads on the arctic river floe by the Polar Bears virtual glacier!

[rubbarbandnsfw]

"Well we got them both on our side and-" Desmond paused, he tapped his ear, nothing but static, that's weird, Kal always had a good connection. It put the hero automatically on edge, his tail stood up on edge.

"I'll tell you mor-" As he said that he put the two ladies and Sothis behind him using a combination of his tail the grab the shorter woman and arm to push the others back. And almost if Des knew the door was kicked down, by several hippos with blunderbuss.

"Alright Rubbarband, we can do this the easy way or the hard way! You can die clean or you can die painfully and I can take those pieces away from you!"

-

"Summon, now!" Desmond bounded around the corner and as soon as he was in sight, The hippo pointed one grey stitched up finger at him, a target painted on Desmond's chest, as if by magic.

"What!?" Desmond tried to remove it but it wouldn't come off.

The hippo's gun had three colors then swirl around it, red, green blue and when he snapped his finger one element shot out at Des who dodged by turning into a puddle, the shot flew over him, Desmond then leaped towards the villains, and as if pulled the shot curved and hit him in the back.

"Aguh! Damn!" Desmond recovered quickly as he charged them all, the villain separating to go to certain spots to hide.

"DESMOND!" The two ladies screamed out. "Enough! how dare you destroy out how, track your dirty boots in the home of a great hero! Fine you don't know what you're messing with!" Both the women glowed for a bit as the Francine pointed and out came the form of a snake like creature. Cassandra summoned a satyr like creature, now both joining the fight.

"Give it up, you're being hunted by one of the best, and when you put the best times the best? You get an army of one!" The clones all laughed in unison.

Desmond ducked behind a wall. "He sure likes talking...he doesn't even know the trap he found himself in." Desmond turned to Sothis and pointed up at the chandelier overhead.

The assailant was lucky he hadn't quite caught the goddess' notice. If that had been miss-timed at all, then he would've alerted a very dangerous enemy to make. But of course, even with the element of surprise, he was dealing with a goddess, and most importantly, a hero. At least, a bit of battle was headed their way.

Sothis' walking style was much the same as when she was alive. She had a dancer's hips, legs, and motions, practically built into her genes, though few of her children ever took after her in that regard. The way she moved simply reflected an internal love and aptitude for dancing. Even the pitter-patter of her feet upon the floor and carpets had a particular tempo and rhythm to them. Were it not more convenient to float, she would've walked a little more. In another life, were she not the goddess of Fodlan, perhaps the dragon of Sirius would have traveled the stars, as an interstellar dancer!

"Naturally. It was just another one of those things one tends to leave back in the car. Thankfully, she is always accomodating. Now, back to what we were saying before.... Er, I do believe I have missed a lot, actually. Would you mind dearly informing me as to all I have yet to hear, and what the state of affairs is?" Sothis inquired, while looking rather proud of herself, despite not giving away what it was she had been doing specifically.

Mesmer-Met Well pt. 2

Hypnopotamus x non-binary!oc

Part One

—————

Upon entering, the acrid aroma of fresh manure slammed into Peyton’s nose. He sneezed once, twice, three times before plugging his nose.

His eyes roamed the fully packed space, vegetation of all kinds and biomes grew up the walls and wound around pipes, flowers and buds blooming under the moonlight.

“Oh dear, sorry. This many plants, have to keep up otherwise the animals go hungry.” Peyton nodded, his footsteps becoming wary as the sounds of a living jungle echoed around him.

Birds hidden behind elephant ear plants croaked in quick succession, the volume ebbing and flowing like a great blue wave.

A low grumbling sound started up behind the duo. It sounded like an engine, slow thumping sounds accompanied. Peyton froze as Hypno’s massive arms encircled him, closing him off from most of the world.

“Francine! How did you get out?” The rumbling increased in intensity and suddenly Peyton was clutched in his arms, clinging to his wide chest. He peered over his shoulder only to find a massive caiman crocodile galloping towards them.

He screamed and held tight to Hypno’s lapels as he dashed around a corner, then another, then a door, shutting and locking it with a metal clang.

“That was terrifying!” The hippo said in between deep breaths. He still held Peyton tight to his chest, who was also catching his breath from the toll of sheer terror at the face of such a ferocious predator.

“Are you all right?.”

“Are they all, uh-“ Peyton Gulped. “Free-roaming?” He looked up.

And there was that look again, the look the magician gave Peyton when he saved the smaller one’s life. Frozen in place, with his eyes wide.

He cleared his throat. “No, not at all. Her gate has been on the Fritz since a certain run-in with those turtles. I haven’t been able to fix it.” Peyton nodded.

He looked around the room, noting a mini forest of much smaller plants growing. Flowers and bushes in the corners, with hummingbirds and ducks roaming around. Against the far wall there was a massive bed for the equally massive Hypnopotamus.

“Can you put me down? I think I’m okay now.” Peyton had let go a few minutes before but the hippo man had only tightened his grip.

He walked over to the bed, leaving over and gently laying Peyton down on the large bed. It was surprisingly soft, and smelled like lilacs. Although that could have been the flowers permeating the air.

The bed dipped as Hypno sat at the end near his guest’s feet. He looked over at Peyton for a moment, looking straight passed him and clearing his throat. His cheeks were rosy.

“Let me see it.” Peyton nodded and hissed as his foot was gingerly lifted and maneuvered into the moonlight. His ankle was red and bruised, a little too limp as well.

“I’ll be right back. I’ll get you something to cover up with too.” Peyton looked down at his dress and covered himself with his arms. Those damn silverfish had left gashes on the fabric. Thankfully everything essential was covered but his soft flesh pooled from in between the gouges. It was a little tight as well. His curves were accentuated but the dress was useless as clothing now.

And this is my favorite date dress! Peyton frowned down at himself, frustrated by the night.

He patted one of Peyton’s thighs and hurried off. He closed the door behind him but didn’t lock it.

Thank goodness. He might be a nice hippo magician, but he was still a strange hippo magician. If Peyton needed a quick escape he wasn’t making it very difficult.

Hypno returned soon after with a blanket and a first aid kit stuffed to the brim. He handed the smaller individual the blanket, as their short dress had become cold and drafty with the tears in it. Hypno still had a pink tint to his cheeks as he worked meticulously.

Stay focused you fool. This person is injured. Their clothes being tattered should not be such a distraction!

He pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind, focusing on the bandages and antiseptic in his hands as he wrapped and stabilized the ankle.

“There you go.” He gently placed Peyton’s leg back on the bed.

“Thanks. I’m Peyton by the way. And thanks for…saving my life. How did you do that?”

Hypno hummed. “Do what?”

“You stopped a car with your bare hands! It should have crushed us both!” Hypno visibly puffed up at the shock in Peyton’s voice.

“Well if you must know, since becoming a mutant I have gained and incredible amount of strength! It was easy, barely a struggle.” It was not easy but Peyton didn’t need to know that.

“Wow. Wait that should be worrying. You basically kidnapped me.”

“Now, hang on! I would never do such things! It is repulsive! I promise you, I can even stay outside of the building while you heal.” Hypno jumped away towards the door, waving his hands erratically. I don’t exactly know where I could stay, but I can find a place for a couple days.

“Well, you don’t have to do that. But not the same room. Please?” Peyton tightened his grip on the blanket. I have to be at least semi-safe, although that’s probably a ridiculous hope. I’m already in his bed.

“ Y-Yes! Yes of course!” He laced and unlaced his fingers together. “Well, I’ll be off! Would you...like some pizza?”

“Yes please! I love pizza! I mean, if it’s not too much trouble?” Hypno waved it off.

“Not at all! I’ll try and find some clothes too. As my new guest I must extend some small amount of hospitality. Any preferences?”

“Oh, um.” Peyton rubbed his arm with a nervous chuckle. “Not really, just make sure they’re large or if they’re jeans, they’re size 14? I’m kind of big and jean brands are so varied.” Hypno nodded and slipped out, but not before sending the smaller person a wink.

Peyton’s face became flush, nerves getting the better of him. He is very handsome...and he’s a hippo man...who basically kidnapped me...and now I’m stuck with him for days...

While Peyton dealt with his growing attraction and the conundrum it caused, Hypno remained in front of the door confronting his own dilemma.

A stranger, someone he sort of kidnapped, is now sleeping in his bed. A very attractive stranger, who was very soft. He didn’t mean to take notice, but carrying them so far and for so long he had become aware of their plumpness.

Hypno grumbled, rubbing the bridge of his nose from the stress headache. And now those blasted turtles will find out and how will I deal with them? Maybe they won’t notice.

The magician hoped so, hurrying off to the nearest clothing store and pizza parlor.

[thepringlesofblood]

ok so arthur right??

i was talking to my dad yesterday and I casually mentioned the PBS kids show ‘arthur’ (the one with the fist that became a meme) and he was having trouble remembering it so i was like ‘y’know, arthur the aardvark?’ and he still didnt get it so I looked up a picture of him 

and he goes ‘if he’s an aardvark, where’s his snout’ 

for reference, this is the punk we’re talking about

no snout. basically an orange dude w/ mouse ears 

this is an aardvark

huge snout. not orange. giant tall ears like a naked bunny. wtf 

so i’m like ‘well yeah, but aardvarks are kinda weird lookin and not very common, but i swear the other animals on the show look like their animals’

so i look up the other animals and #1 they all are varying shades of skin tone, no frogs or birds or anything, and #2 it took so much fucking digging to figure out what each person’s supposed to be, and I grew up my whole life thinking they were the wrong animals. 

according to the wiki, there’s 8 main characters. Arthur and DW are both aardvarks, so the 6 remaining are francine, muffy, alan/brain, binky, buster, and mr. ratburn. 

let’s start nice and easy. arthurs whole family are aardvarks (and all of them have the same ‘orange-ish person w/ mouse ears, no nose, and human features’, what about francine?

so here’s our girl francine 

she basically looks like a normal cartoon person, except her mouth is like an otomatone. as a kid, i assumed she was a monkey, because people told me she was a monkey, and i was right. but there’s so so so many layers of anthropomorphizing here. she’s just a person with a protruding lower face, basically. it works, but it is so so minimal. the lil nose slits are in most arthur characters so they don’t read as different or specific. 

next we have muffy. similar situation. 

again, but even more anthropomorphized. her lil monkey facebump thing is even less pronounced, her ears look fairly human (for a cartoon), you could even make an argument that she has kind of a nose. I had no idea what she was as a kid. I legit thought she was just a person, and that this was how people looked in arthur world. 

that might be on me, since there are people who Just Look Like People in arthur world - buster’s dad is literally just A Human Man w/ bunny ears and the canon typical Nose Slits

behold, a man. 

but still. artistic license, it’s a cartoon, so I thought muffy was just a Person. 

there’s also the opposite end of the spectrum, where shit gets a bit wilder. 

what the hell is binky. y’know what I thought he was, when I was a kid? 

a hippo

seriously, he’s got the weirdly spaced teeth, the tiny lil ears, big craggy face, he’s larger than everyone else which makes sense bc hippos are gigantic. he’s not the same color as a hippo but everyone in the arthur verse is kinda skin toned so i didn’t think much of it

but

do you know what he’s supposed to be??

a bulldog

what. the hell. 

i just 

????

why is his jaw so gigantic??? this is a bulldog, for reference

if he’s a bulldog...why is he one of the very few arthur characters to get a DEFINABLE NOSE??

IT’S NOT A SNOUT. IT’S NOT EVEN A LIL DOG NOSE. IT’S LIKE AN EGG SITTING ON HIS FACE. NO WRINKLES. WEIRDASS EARS LIKE MOTORCYCLE HANDLES

only thing i can kinda see is the busted ass teeth. but like his whole head is a weird triangle in the wrong direction. I’m so confused. I’m so afraid. 

ok 

but get ready

for the ultimate weirdest interpretation of an animal

a l a n 

aka brain 

looks pretty much like arthur, right? except for his lil triangle nose instead of 2 dots, and slightly darker skintone, this is just like arthur. heads a bit more egg shaped but i think that’s a joke on how he’s real smart so hes an egghead or whatever. 

so, you might think, oh, he’s another small mammal like an aardvark, right? with that cute little pink nose, maybe a hamster? a mouse? 

no. no he’s not

according to arthur.fandom.com (the wiki site for the show)

he is

a fucking 

BEAR

thats right ladies and gents the ferocious bear before you, clearly indistinguishable from an aardvark

WHAT. THE FUCK. 

WHY

just to prove that I’m not shitting you 

https://arthur.fandom.com/wiki/Alan_Powers

HOW

THe fUCk

is This Lil Twerp the MIGHTY BEAST!!!! that is Bear. 

and you know the worst part? 

It’s evident. that the Arthur team. Knows how to do anthropomorphizing right. 

exhibit a?

B U S T E R

look at this motherfucker. the teeth. the weird lil triangle nose. the ears. he’s so clearly a fucking bunny. simple, but effective. clear, but not excessive. this is why you get a spinoff, buster. this is why you get all those ‘postcards’ series and the best games on PBS kids go. because out of everyone in town, you’re the only one who is instantly recognizable as the exact animal they’re supposed to be. no doubts, no qualms, no questions. just a good ol fashioned bunny. 10/10 

honorable mention, of course, goes to our only other recognizable main character. 

mr ratburn. what a legend. maybe it’s cheating a bit to have ‘rat’ right in his name so you know what he is, but god damn does his design deliver. take a closer look at that snout! whiskers, lil pink dot nose, vaguely triangular headshape, mouth at the very end, squinty lil eyes way back up on his head- you may not like it, but this is what peak rat performance looks like. remy ratatouille wishes he were this cool gay elementary school teacher. the sad thing is he looks more like an aardvark than arthur does, and he���s a rat. 

so

let’s review

out of all of the 8 main cast

two (2) 

are recognizable as animals on sight. 

arguably muffy and francine are recognizable but like so vaguely

so

75% of the main cast are Rounded Skintone Animal with Weird Ears

and then we got buster baxter and mr nigel ratburn over here carrying the show in terms of animal anthropomorphism done right. absolute madmen, true legends. 

god what a weird part of zillenial childhood. 

[vv3spa]

so basically the pub au is as simple as that, sorta. it's fnaf, but it takes place in a bar/pub. it's ran by Horatio (mr. hippo) and Orville (ynow) with the help of their adoptive daughter Francine (happy frog).

the building is one of those places that's got like, the actual establishment on the bottom floor and the 2nd floor is their house. the town they're in is small, and despite calling it a "pub", horatio & orville really just want a family friendly diner sorta thing, but without the strict in-and-out feel of a diner, so they settled with calling it a family friendly pub.

people, at first, of course, were rather skeptical of a bar that's family friendly, as it's never been done before and especially with the blatant title of a pub. but horatio would reassure you that "everything here is as safe and child ffriendly as every other eating establishment you'd find in this here neighborhood."

this in particular was about maybe 20 years ago when the two men decided to open this thing up. one of them had a great amount of money to their name so after some saving it was easy enough to be able to renovate the building and begin to make it their own. they knew they wanted a family in the future, so they made sure it was the double floored building it is.

inside the pub, there's what you'd expect essentially. a bar (with both alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages... more on alcoholic later), a show stage, many floor seats and booths to sit at for the many patrons (the number of all three have increased with time), and of course, a kiddy area for the children.

the bar is sometimes run by orville but he mostly just leaves the work to caddy, the usual bartender, so he can be the proper front man he's meant to be. essentially, he just keeps an eye on the place and on the patrons (especially the drunken ones)... and cindy. horatio is more skilled than orville when it comes to the behind the scenes work such as money management and bills and whathaveyou.

now, the menu in particular. there's two, since they both have a large assortment. there's the food and then there's the drinks, the drinks being their most favored! there's beverages such as the Bloody Mike right down to the utmost tasteful ones such as Bonnie's Bonkers Blueberry Blast! they have both alcoholic and non versions of the drinks. orville keeps a close eye on the adults who take up the intoxicating ones.

the show stage is something like an open mic. there's not always a set band to play, but there is one that appears the most, but that's a story for another day. if you bring it up with horatio (if you can catch him on the bar floor) you can surely book yourself a spot for the coming night's performance list!

as for the kiddy area, its self explanatory. it was implemented in the pub sort of later than the rest of the things there, being it was requested specially from the adults that attended the place for there to be somewhere the children can run around at. as of now, the kiddy area is monitored somewhat by francine but rlly shes out doing what 7 yr olds do

okay my eyes hurt that's all for tonight

...Any fan of Arthur, old or new, will tell you that Arthur’s friend Francine Frensky (some kind of a monkey, in theory, but she looks more like a hippo, TBH) is Jewish, so she brings us a very Jewish spooky story this episode. Of course, that story is the Golem. The dybbuk might be a bit much for kids.

Love Stands With Pride (Preview)

Hey everybody. Some of you might know that I’ve been hard at work for the past few months working on a big fat 12-chapter Zootopia project, and it’s finally getting into the stages of proofreading and revisions now, so should be coming out by the end of the month, God-willing. 

In the meantime, I’ve decided to give those following me a little teaser as to what’s coming. I’ll try to keep the excerpts vague as to not spoil the entire story, but I’ll also keep it under a “read more” line, just in case some of you want to save it all for when it’s officially published. Keep in mind, this is from a story that’s still being proofread and revised, so changes in the final version may differ from what you’re reading now. 

“This town was founded on the principles that animals of all species, predator and prey alike, can live in peace and harmony,” the badger screamed, looking down at the crowd below him, “But those principles have been betrayed! The results of last night’s election have proven that the prey of this city are no longer interested in preserving peace amongst diversity! They have their own selfish agenda, and part of it is to keep the predatory population under their paws, buried in the dirt so they can stand above us!”

Judy reached to the back of her belt and pulled her paw-held communicator to her face, clicking the button on the side to turn it on.

“Dispatch, this is Officer Hopps; we’ve got a disorderly badger at the front of City Hall,” she said into the receiver, “Crowd in front of the doors growing in size, potential for a 10-34. Johnson and Pennington are already here, but we might need more backup.”

“10-4, sending backup,” Clawhauser’s voice replied back, “Try to diffuse the situation if you can.”

“Copy that,” Judy said back, before putting the communicator back behind her. Looking toward Nick and the other officers, Judy held her paw in the air and motioned toward the badger, before all four of them moved in.

“For too long, we have been treated as lesser beings, as monsters even!” the badger continued, paying no mind to the police moving through the crowd, “They have let their fear take hold, preserving a stigma that hasn’t been enforced since the stone age!”

“Sir, you need to climb down from there,” Judy shouted up at him, “And everyone here needs to move back from the doors, one hundred feet, right now.”

“Since this town was founded, there has not been one recorded incident of predator attacking prey, aside from Bellwether’s conspiracy using the nighthowler serum against us!” the badger continued ranting, oblivious to Judy’s instruction.

“Hey! Climb down from there, or we’re gonna pull you down in cuffs, you understand me?” After her second warning, the badger’s eyes looked down at her, scoffing with an arrogant smile.

“Well well, look who it is. Officer Judy Hopps, the rabbit who saved the predators of Zootopia,” he said in a condescending tone, “It’s pretty obvious where her loyalties lie after her grand acts of heroism. She’s trying to arrest me for trespassing no doubt, but I’m sure she realizes that City Hall is considered public property. But does that matter to the city? No, of course not! They just want their officers to keep us trouble-making predators quiet, so nobody disrupts their agenda to keep us down!”

“We’re not accusing you of trespassing. You’re obstructing city business, and from what you’re saying, it sounds like you’re about to start a riot. I’m not gonna tell you again: calm it down, and move it back away from the doors.”

“You tell ‘em, Hopps!” a voice called out from behind the crowd. Judy turned to see a male pig in business attire looking toward her with a grin, Alongside him were a number of other prey animals, a hippo, a camel, a few horses, and plenty of others. Behind them, Judy noticed another group of animals watching on from the back with their phones in the air, most likely having recorded the incident for some time now. “Your days are numbered, preds. In the next year, you’re gonna get a nice big zap on the neck any time you get riled up like that.”

“Sir, you need to move along,” Pennington instructed, moving in front of him to obstruct his view of Judy, “If you work here, we’ll help you inside — “

“Hey, it’s a free city, I’m just saying my piece here!”

“Yeah, let him speak!” said the hippo amongst the crowd of prey animals, “It’s about time someone told these savages what they needed to hear, before those filthy freaks try to get that marriage act approved!”

“All of you, back up!” Delgato shouted, reaching his paw to the side of his belt, keeping it just an inch above his nightstick, “One hundred feet, now!”

“Witness this sight!” the badger from above the doors shouted, pointing at Delgato in front of the prey animals, “Witness these traitors to predator-kind! The prey menace has blinded these mammals into their servants, making it their mission to keep enlightened ones like us from exposing the truth of the matter! The truth that this city will never respect predators on the same level as prey!”

Judy’s heart began to race. This was getting out of control. Even with Francine’s massive size amongst them, they wouldn’t be able to control a growing crowd this large. She was just about to radio Clawhauser again, until two blips of a police siren caught her attention. Through the crowd, she could see Officers Jackson and Wolfard stepping out of one car, while Snarlov and Fangmeyer stepped out of the other. All four of them quickly fastened clear police shields to their arms and helmets onto their faces.

“For too long, we’ve let them trample over us!” The badger continued screaming, snapping Judy’s attention away from the officers, “If we want to see change, we need to force it from those who would keep us down!”

That was it. The tension in the crowd had reached its boiling point already; now it began to boil over. The crowd of predators around Judy began to march toward the prey on the outside. Claws grabbed the shirt collars of their opposition, small animals scurried over larger foes, while snarls and growls rang from every corner. The badger himself threw his megaphone into the face of the business pig before leaping onto his chest and wrapping his claws around his neck. Judy wanted to stop it, put herself in between some of the animals and break up the fighting. She could take on one rhinoceros by herself no problem; but there were just so many disputes going on at once, she didn’t know where to start.

“Hopps!” Nick shouted, grabbing her by the paw, “We need to go! It’s about to get real hard to see in a few seconds!”

Also George comes from either Swedish or Norway descent (mentioned in the same holiday episode, later episodes imply is he from Norway), and Emily, DW’s best friend, may also be bi-racial as her parents are of different species (even though she appears to be French)

Francine’s heritage is also not some one-off, never mentioned again thing. Her heritage is a major plot point in a lot of episodes

-One episode has her struggling with fasting during Yom Kippur (even though she isn’t required to fast), also the speaking introduction of her grandmother, Bubby (played by the late Joan Rivers, who also looks nothing like her animated counterpart

-another episode she has to choose between an important bowling tournament or her cousin’s Bar Mitzvah (which seems to show an accurate portrayal)

also in the holiday special, the Crosswires come over for a visit, to which Mr Crosswire gifts Francine’s father with a ham. This wasn’t meant to be intentionally insensitive- the Crosswires just don’t know about the Frensky’s being Jewish (as Muffy constantly brushes off that fact during the special) and how ham is not in their diet

also in the show, nobody is ever disliked for their race/nationality/whatever. There are some instances of being unaware (such as when DW thought she knew about Africa and drew a picture of Brain’s cousin and other kids riding in a hippo’s mouth to school in a volcano), but then the rest of the episode is about her learning about African culture and singing all the countries of Africa and special features about them. She also learns from Brain, since he is the one most knowledgeable about his own heritage
