ah yes, mario kart 8 deluxe but there's only blue shells.... this is just a roulette of chaos LMAO but i had fun :)

[melody-sy]

in mario kart 8 deluxe, you should go to vs mode, set it to 200cc, turn teams on, set items to custom items, and set the custom items to only triple mushrooms for red team and only spiny shells for blue team-- then put yourself on red team

it's really fun if you know how to dodge a spiny shell with a mushroom -v•

List of my headcanons that are real from the movie:

-Luigi struggles to keep up with Mario for health reasons (He states he has bad knees in the opening) -Luigi is scared of big dogs -Luigi 100% swears ("That HELLhound is gonna escape!") -Luigi was a gifted kid ("You're bringing your brother down with you", the refusal to talk back at dinner, the block castle) -Luigi 100% eats whatever Mario doesn't like (Taking the mushrooms from his pasta, eating it when Mario doesn't want to) -Mario and Luigi are VERY SMALL GUYS -Mario was NOT a golden/perfect child -Luigi is a bit of a mama's boy, likely due to being shy and her needing to do things on his behalf (Giving him his soup directly after he struggled to get any bread or salad, THANKS UNCLE TONY) -The boys share a room -Mario sucks as video games but still plays them because he's stubborn -Large immigrant family living together -Mario is an INCREDIBLY stubborn person -Princess Peach is less of a ruler and more of a guardian/protector/spokesperson -King Boo and the presence of boos in Bowser's strongholds implies he's taken over their former spaces when they were alive ("the darklands. they're under Bowser's control") -The shell is NOT part of the Koopa's body (The dry bones had a separated spine from the shell) -Coins are pretty big -The blue shell is the highest ranking troop, with other shell colours indicating rank as well. -Power ups are as much a tool as a weapon -Cheep cheeps are just fish -There's an entire kingdom of Kongs, containing both monkeys and gorillas -Cranky Kong is Donkey Kong Senior, and Donkey Kong's father -Mario was not a natural at all, even if he was a sporty kid -Power-ups can actively transform the body and not JUST augment it (The super-bell giving mario cat reflexes and adjusting his joints to operate like a cat's. also a plus, he purrs when grooming himself and makes biscuits on DK's back briefly) -Shortcuts to skip worlds are real (The cannons, rainbow road) -Anti grav can be toggled, but will auto enable under certain conditions -Bowser's green scales run down his back and under his shell (it's hard to see but noticeable in the fake proposal scene) -Mario is a kart guy and peach is a Bike gal -Koopas tend to greatly admire feats of strength and power, and sparing somebody is seen as very romantic. -bullet bills are sentient -all humans are cartoony -Bowser isn't just a bully, he's actually a sad and hurt person who grew up alone and likely fought for the throne

GOLDEN KAMUY x MARIO KART 8 DELUXE

a silly little post about what racer they'd choose if they played mario kart 8 deluxe (+ some headcanons)

SUGIMOTO

he'd 100% choose baby luigi . he thinks luigi is MUCH cooler than mario and he chose him as a baby because he thinks he'll go faster if tiny. he also always chooses the jet bike as the vehicle (what can i say it just looks like it goes very fast)

SHIRAISHI

HE WOULD ABSOLUTELY CHOOSE ROY . i mean look at his sunglasses he's clearly the coolest. shiraishi always gets the WORST items and when he finally gets a mushroom he ends up crashing against a wall or falling off the map

ASIRPA

king boo . she LOVES choosing king boo and screaming BOOOOOO SUGIMOTO IM GONNA EAT YOU when she's behind him (she really does it with everyone but sugimoto is the one who gets scared the most because he genuinely thinks king boo can eat other racers). she just loves feeling like a menace and hitting other racers all the time

OGATA

WHAT CAN I SAY they have the same black void eyes and i think ogata relates to him in a very deep way. ogata SUCKS at drifting but he throws bananas, bombs and green shells like a pro (doesn't matter if the other racer is behind or ahead of him)

TANIGAKI

tanooki mario because inkarmat told him tanooki mario reminds her of him. he always ends up being the last one because he absolutely SUCKS at mario kart

INKARMAT

100000% CAT PEACH . she's matching with tanigaki. she always drives extremely well and therefore ends up being one of the last ones with tanigaki (but theyre in the bottom 3 together)

KOITO

BABY PEACH . he thinks peach is an absolute GIRLBOSS and like sugimoto he thinks she'll go faster as a baby. he can NEVER win against ogata because ogata somehow always has shells or bananas or bombs and throws most of them at koito no matter if he's behind or ahead of ogata

TSUKISHIMA

toad . he didn't really know who to choose but koito INSISTED toad reminded him of toad and he thought choosing toad would be better than choosing the random option. he does NOT know what he's doing and tries to avoid the item boxes because he thinks they're obstacles for some reason. he sometimes ends up going THE OPPOSITE way but still manages to be in 11th place (just because tanigaki is worse)

TSURUMI

this man has his own mii (i made a mii just for him btw) . hes the kinda guy that has studied every object in the game and know how they all work and how to use them to win ... not a menace because hes a violent racer but because he just knows how to play

USHIYAMA

HE'S DEFINITELY DAISY . my man ushiyama chooses the prettiest girl and THAT'S DAISY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i think he's a pretty average mario kart player but sometimes he stops the vehicle because he accidentally pushes the backwards button (his fingers are too big, he thinks someone threw him a mysterious item that somehow stops the vehicle and he doesn't even notice he's the one doing it)

HIJIKATA

he thinks THE GAME gave him the character and he can't change it (he seriously believes he's stuck with mario but no one tells him because they all think he chose mario himself). despite that he's surprisingly good, not because he's a good racer but because he always gets triple red shells and annoys everyone with them

NIKAIDOU

his brother played wario (he will bite ANYONE who tries to pick wario) . he screams WAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH in every jump or gliding part. he goes feral when he gets a superstar and starts hitting all the people he can

KIRORANKE

YOSHI !!!!!!!!!!! ironically he SUCKS at throwing bombs and ends up hitting himself with them (he HATES when they're playing battle mode and it's Bob-omb Blast time). he's VERY bad at first but gets better after playing a few times if you ignore him hitting himself with his own items

WILK

DRY BONES . hes a silly guy and picks the silliest guy !!!! a pretty average player methinks ... definitely laughs at every single person that gets hit with a shell but gets mad when hes the one that gets hit

[dixieforsmash]

You can see in the new Mario movie trailer what seems to be an indoor, DK-themed garage, probably inside the giant golden ape head. The Kongs look to be the source of the karts for the Mushroom Kingdom. #DixieKongFacts

hello, I saw your post earlier :D

For the fanfic prompt ask:

I had an idea that’s been haunting me, namely: httyd - Snotlout and the twins being overly competitive over something (eg card games. These guys would tear each other apart verbally during werewolf I swear)

thank u and have a nice day!

Saturday Night

Fandom: HTTYD

Words: 482

Rating: T

Warnings: swearing, mention of weed/alcohol

Genre: humor

AU: Modern

Notes: they are 21

Also I’ve never played werewolf so I wouldn’t be able to write that correctly (sorry). And I haven’t played Mario Kart in a while so don’t fact check me.

Saturday night was the favorite of all nights among the group of friends. Ever since they were fifteen they would get together at one of their houses and have a sleepover. The night always consists of junk food, games, and pranks. This year however alcohol and weed were a big part of the night. And so things got a bit more wild and a whole lot more competitive, well at least among three of them. Hiccup and Astrid had gone outside to get some fresh air, everyone knew they were actually making out somewhere, and Fishlegs had fallen asleep about an hour ago so now Snotlout and the twins sat in the basement playing a game of Mario Kart.

“Are you fucking kidding me Ruffnut! Another green shell,” Snotlout yelled, nearly throwing his controller across the room.

“This is payback for your banana you jerk,” Ruffnut replied, kicking her friend in the side.

“Well stop using all your items on me and use them on your brother, who is winning by the way! Though how he is doing that when he is high off his ass is beyond me. No wait, he's always high,” Snotlout said, taking a jab at his best friend.

“You’re no better than him, you drunkard,” the blonde retorted, grabbing her drink.

“Hey! I’ll have you know I’ve only had two beers tonight, no three,”

“Oh wow, I’m so proud of you,” Ruffnut said, the sarcasm practically pouring out of her.

“Will you two quit flirting, it’s disgusting,” Tuffnut interjected, his eyes never once leaving the screen.

“You’re disgusting,” Ruffnut said, Snotlout nodding his head in agreement and following up with the snarky reply “Yeah, when’s the last time you showered?”

“Two days ago,” Tuffnut said, though it sounded more like a question. Ruffnut rolled her eyes in disappointment but her mood quickly changed when she got a golden mushroom and was able to win the game.

“Who’s the best, I am! You two are stinky, dirty losers,” she taunted while doing a little victory dance on the coffee table. Tuffnut pushed his sister off the table and threw his controller at her head. “No, you’re just a cheater you little…cheater,” he pouted.

“Yeah, well you gave me a crappy controller anyway. I would have won if I had a good one,” Snotlout added, placing his feet on the table and leaning back against the couch.

“Wow, you guys are such sore losers, and all because you lost to a girl that's a bit sexist don’t you think.” Snotlout scoffed, looking over at Tuffnut with an expression that said ‘What the heck is wrong with your sister.’ Tuffnut shrugged his shoulders, grabbing the remote and turning on some random movie. Ruffnut chuckled to herself before sitting back between the two men and wrapping a blanket around her and Tuff, she sure did love the feeling of winning.

A/N: Thank you everyone for the likes and follows! I really appreciate it! :) My goal is to try and update one chapter each week. I did make this chapter a little longer. I hope all of you enjoy it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 7

The sun was nearing dusk as the princess, mushroom man, and the two plumbers reached the kingdom of the Kongs. Jungle Kingdom was at last in front of them. They were a bit tired from the day’s adventures, but relieved that they all finally made it to their destination. Princess Peach slowed her Yoshi down and got off it. The other three followed suit. They all had their Yoshies wait by the entrance and fed them some of the other fruit brought along with them.

Peach walked up to the large golden doors and grabbed the knocker. She knocked twice and everyone waited for someone to open the doors. The doors were thrown open with such force that Luigi jumped back terrified. A Kong with blond hair roared at them.

“De ja vu,” Mario said. He remembered when he, Peach, and Toad were all greeted this way not too long ago.

“Greetings, we need to speak with the king,” Peach spoke as she stared up at the Kong who towered over her and everyone else.

The Kong huffed and allowed everyone to enter, “Alright, everyone get in the kart.”

Everyone got into the kart. It was a tight squeeze for Mario, Luigi, and Peach. Toad took the seat that was propped out in the back. Again, de ja vu came to Mario’s thoughts about the seating arrangement with the addition of Luigi this time.

The blond Kong started driving the kart in a fast manner that everyone had to hold onto the railings in the kart tightly. Luigi yelped and had an iron grip on the railings. He was not used to this kind of thing.

“We’ll be out of here soon enough,” Mario said, trying to comfort his brother.

Luigi smiled at Mario.

The kart swerved as it followed the curves of the wooden road still staying on the tracks. It felt like a roller coaster. Toad was excited as he was lifted out of his seat when the kart would go up and down on the hills. Eventually, the wooded track ended, and the kart flew off it. The kart then had a paraglider come out of it and they soared above the open water below them. They then landed in an opening that was the entrance to the Kong throne room.

Once more, familiarity came up for Mario, Peach, and Toad with Luigi now part of the scene. They all exited the kart and the blond Kong drove out in a hurry. The throne room was spacious and on either side of the four friends, Kongs dressed up in armor were lined up. At the end of the throne room sat the king of the Kongs. He had a long white beard, and he eyed the four people walking up to his throne.

“King Cranky Kong,” Peach said as she did a curtsy. “It is wonderful to see you again.”

“Princess Peach. We meet again. I take it you’re here because you want my army?” the king spoke in a knowing tone.

“Yes, your majesty. Bowser has escaped his prison and he has taken a new friend of ours. We believe he is also plotting to find another SuperStar to destroy the Mushroom Kingdom. Possibly other kingdoms as well,” Peach explained.

“That seems to be a likely story. Well…seeing as how Mario proved his strength last time to my son, we could give you a hand again.”

“That would be most appreciated. Thank you!”

The king wagged his finger, “Before we do though, I have one request from you.”

“Uh okay. Sure. What is your request?”

Cranky stroked his beard, “I want to see Mario’s brother in action against my son.”

Luigi became nervous. He hadn’t known the king or his son for very long and saw his son’s strength. He had to admit the next king in line was very strong. “I uh…”

“Prove your strength and we’ll help you. That is my request,” Cranky said.

“Yes, your highness. I need a moment to speak with Luigi please,” Peach responded. She turned around and walked up to Luigi.

“I’m still learning how to use the power ups here and everything. I don’t know…” Luigi spoke sadly.

“You can do this,” Peach said as she put a hand on his shoulder. “Mario beat him, and I saw you in action beating Bowser before. You can take down Donkey.”

“Peach is right. You got this Lu,” Mario said. “We’ll be watching you and cheering you on.”

Toad gave Luigi a thumbs up, agreeing with Peach and Mario.

“Thanks everyone. Let’s a go,” Luigi said as he puffed up his chest.

The princess turned back around to face the king, “Okay, we will follow your request. Will you be providing power ups like last time?”

“Excellent and yes, power ups will be in the arena,” Cranky replied.

“Great!” Peach said smiling.

Everyone then began leaving the throne room. Cranky had his subordinates get everything set up in the arena. Luigi was led into a waiting area just outside of the arena. Mario, Peach, and Toad were all escorted to the arena and had seats by the king. The arena was huge and could fill the entirety of the Jungle Kingdom.

Luigi waited for the iron bars in front of him to go up and let him outside. He was still nervous, but he had to do this. He wanted to get Y/N back from Bowser as much as everyone else did. Plus, they did have to ensure that Bowser could not get another SuperStar.

‘We can do this. Relax and just use your instinct,’ Luigi mentally spoke to himself.

Just then, the iron bars lifted, and Luigi walked outside. He was walking along a pathway of square bricks hanging in the air. He looked up and could see all the seats filled. He then found his brother and friends. They all waved at him, and he smiled, waving back at them. The iron bars on the other side of the pathway lifted and out came Donkey, son of Cranky Kong.

Donkey ran on all fours before leaping into the air and landing just a few feet away from Luigi. The crowd cheered in excitement for the next king in line. Donkey looked up around him and smiled, waving at all his fans.

“Yeah! I’m DK! I’m Donkey Kong!” he exclaimed as he started dancing around and flexing his muscles.

Luigi felt a little intimidated but did his best to calm himself down.

“So, I get to fight the brother now huh? This’ll be fun,” Donkey smirked.

“Uh, hehehe…yep! Sure, will be!” Luigi chuckled and put his hand behind his neck, rubbing it out of nervousness.

“Let’s get this fight going! I’m pumped! Are you all ready?!” Donkey exclaimed to the crowd.

The crowd roared in response, stomping their feet, and clapping their hands.

“Alright. Let the battle begin!” Cranky said.

A bell was rung, and Donkey immediately pounced onto Luigi. The plumber in green was knocked down and tried to get the Kong off him. The Kong was smacking Luigi across the face and then got up and kicked him. Luigi was kicked back a few feet away from Donkey.

‘Ouch. C’mon Luigi. Look for the power ups and avoid the blue mushrooms.’ Luigi had remembered Mario telling him about his fight with Donkey and how he ended up eating the blue mushroom. Also, having witnessed it shrink Bowser, he definitely wanted to avoid it.

Luigi jumped up to his feet and saw another row of a square brick pathway above him. He jumped up to it and then saw a yellow box with a white question mark. Donkey followed and jumped at the other end of the pathway. Luigi punched the yellow box and out came a brown leaf. Luigi jumped to grab the leaf before it could be carried out of reach.

The leaf was crushed in Luigi’s hands, and he was now suited in a Tanooki outfit. To him, it looked like a racoon suit. He had remembered seeing Mario wear this before. He knew he needed to make himself fly by spinning the tail.

“Ah. The raccoon suit returns,” Donkey said.

“Yep! Here we go!” Luigi exclaimed as he worked on getting the tail spinning. He was then lifted in the air. He had a difficult time getting the suit to fly how he needed it to, and he ended up flying downward.

“Hey! Where are you going pal? Don’t tell me you’re giving up so soon!” Donkey taunted.

Luigi was trying to get the suit to stop flying downwards and then he heard his brother.

“Lu! Relax your body and the suit will work with you!” Mario shouted.

Luigi followed what his brother said and relaxed his body. The suit slowed down, and the tail did a gentle spin. He was then able to control the suit to have him fly upwards back to Donkey.

“Now, I’m getting the hang of this!” Luigi said happily.

“Welcome back. Now, time to kick your butt!” Donkey said as he ran toward Luigi.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Y/N, having let her mind wander to happier times for a while, began to feel drowsy. She stared at the metal bars in front of her. Would she ever not see bars? She couldn’t take this prisoner role anymore. She really hoped Mario and the others would be here soon. She wanted to be out in the open air and be around friends who treated her kindly. Her wrists were hurting from the handcuffs. She could tell that her skin was getting irritated as well.

She sighed, annoyed about her wrists being chained together. Couldn’t they remove the chains? It’s not like she would be able to easily escape out of this cell anyway. She didn’t have magic and power ups weren’t nearby either. She shook her head. She decided to try and get into as comfortable of a position as possible to try to sleep. She wanted to try sleeping on one of her sides, facing the stone wall.

Her lids grew heavier and soon, sleep took over and she was brought into dreamland.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bowser had exited his music room and was now in a meeting room. He was sitting at a large table, discussing plans with his Koopas on how to go about finding another SuperStar. Yes, he had not forgotten that detail. As important as it was to make a song fitting for his Peaches, he still wanted to get the SuperStar and use it to make himself all powerful. Ensuring that the star would not be ripped from his grasp once again, he decided that he would keep the star near himself. He would use it if it became necessary to sooner rather than later.

“Since the Penguin Kingdom is destroyed, we could try searching for another SuperStar at the Yoshi Kingdom or even the Jungle Kingdom,” one of the Koopas suggested.

“Hmm…yes, I suppose we could do that. Send troops to both places,” Bowser said. He couldn’t help getting a feeling that his troops would run into Peach along the way to either of those kingdoms. “If you happen to see the princess, bring her to me immediately. I have a feeling that one of you will run into her somewhere.”

“Yes Sire,” the Koopa said. “Shall we make ready now?”

“Of course! I will have some of the other koopas prepare for a possible raid here,” Bowser answered. “Go now!”

“Right away!” The Koopa saluted as he and the others exited the meeting room.

Kamek, who had been quiet, turned to his king, “I sense you’re troubled Sire.”

Bowser turned to his MagiKoopa, “Gee, whatever gave you that idea?”

“My king, you have conflicting feelings regarding Y/N. You want her to like you.”

The king grumbled, smoke blowing out of nostrils. “I do not want her to like me. I want her to play her part of the hostage. As soon as Peaches comes here, I’ll be rid of her and the others. It will just be me and the princess.”

Kamek sighed, “Your majesty…” He was at a loss of words. He remembered what Y/N said back in the throne room. The princess will not feel the same way he does for her. He knew Y/N was right. The princess had been resistant and would continue to be. He wanted Bowser to have a true happy ending.

“If you have something to say, say it,” Bowser said irritably.

“I…I can have some of the other Koopas go to the Mushroom Kingdom. They can wait on your command to attack or not if all else fails with the princess.”

“I see. If she says no, destroy her kingdom.”

Kamek gulped. “Y-Yes, exactly.”

“Why are you nervous?”

“I am not nervous.” The lump in the MagiKoopa’s throat said otherwise. He knows that the princess will say no, and that the kingdom would have to be attacked anyway. He didn’t want to say anything more to Bowser.

“Hmm…if you say so. Go now and send a few troops to the Mushroom Kingdom. Have one or two search the kingdom for the princess. Although, I feel she has left the kingdom.” Bowser wasn’t buying what Kamek said about not being nervous. He had his suspicions.

“Of course, your highness,” Kamek replied as he got up from his chair and walked out of the meeting room.

Bowser exited not long after Kamek. He made his way to his bedroom and decided to get an early night in for sleep. He closed his doors and plopped down on his bed. He stared up at his ceiling.

‘Just think about Peaches. She will love the song and she will love you,’ he mentally spoke to himself. He still had to fight down the regret he felt about Y/N. It was not an easy battle, but he figured busying himself with other things would help him out. His mentality was not so easily swayed to dwell on other things or people.

Y/N still appeared in his mind. He again knew deep down that he did want Y/N to have a fondness of him. He still wanted Peaches though. This is why he wanted Y/N to stay in the dungeon until it was no longer necessary to have her around. He closed his eyes in frustration. Sleep. He needed to sleep and go into the land of imagination. His plans would follow through in the end.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“C’mon Lu! You got this!” Mario cheered.

Peach and Toad also cheered for Luigi.

Luigi fought Donkey as best as he could in the Tanooki suit. He tried using the tail to swipe at him since he didn’t have claws. He also tried kicking at Donkey. The Kong was very agile and dodged most of Luigi’s moves. Luigi decided to grab a barrel and hurl it at Donkey.

Donkey, not expecting the barrel, was struck down and then Luigi swung his tail to hit Donkey and kick him. The Kong stumbled back and shook his head. Luigi grabbed another barrel and threw it at Donkey. The barrel hit the Kong once again and he was knocked down. Luigi kicked at Donkey and swung his tail.

The Kong was becoming exhausted and collapsed. Luigi landed on the brick pathway and sighed, also feeling tired from the fight. Donkey passed out and Luigi smiled in triumph. The crowds cheered with applause.

“Wahoo!” Mario said in excitement. “Way to go little brother!”

Luigi turned toward Mario’s voice and smiled at him.

“Alright. Alright. Settle down everyone!” Cranky said. “Luigi is clearly the winner. Now, everyone make haste. We have a battle to prepare for! We shall be helping the princess take down the king of the Koopas!”

All the Kongs followed their king, exiting the stadium and getting ready to prepare for battle or keep loved ones in a safe place for a while.

The princess, plumber, and mushroom man followed the king of the Kongs to meet back up with Luigi. They all reunited, and then went into a meeting room. The king explained that he would have the kongs develop karts with certain battle mechanics.

“The battle karts would be helpful. We also brought along a few Yoshies,” Peach said.

“Yoshies?” Cranky asked.

“Yes. We wanted to have some extra help from the Yoshies. They can be of use for battle as well.”

“Hmm…I suppose so.”

“Did you want some of the Kongs to have a Yoshi with them for the battle?”

“No. They’ll prefer to use the karts.”

“Very well.”

The king and princess continued discussing their battle plans. Mario, Luigi, and Toad all threw in their input here and there when it was needed. After some time, it was settled.

“We’ll make for the Koopa Kingdom tomorrow. I’ll have some of the Kongs prepare for the karts,” Cranky said.

“Sounds good!” Peach said.

“For accommodations, we’ll have you all stay here. Donkey,” Cranky called to his son who had been quiet during the discussion. Donkey had eventually woken up and joined the discussion staying silent the entire time.

“Yeah Dad?” Donkey asked.

“Show everyone to a room.”

“Sure.”

Everyone followed Donkey out of the meeting room, and he took everyone up a golden staircase. There were several rooms in the hallway they entered. Donkey showed Peach her room first followed by Toad, Mario, and Luigi. Donkey then went to his room.

The prince sighed as he laid down on his bed. Another battle? Donkey did enjoy battling, but the last time he fought Bowser, he was nearly killed. He didn’t want to let that stop him, but he hoped that the outcome would be in his and everyone else’s favor and not in Bowser’s. He also wondered who this friend of the princess and the others was. None of them really mentioned much about the friend. He decided to ask more about that in the morning.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Y/N opened her eyes. She was surprised to have gotten a good amount of sleep. She figured she would’ve only gotten a few hours. Mental exhaustion was heavier than she thought it to be. On the plus side, it did make her feel a little refreshed. However, she wished she could stretch her arms. The pain in her wrists had increased and she could tell her skin had grown fiercer from the metal rubbing against it for so long.

She heard a door open and in front of her cell stood the Koopa who had placed her in there. She gave the magician a glare.

“I am not here to taunt you. I come in with news,” Kamek said.

“Before you tell me the news, could you please take off the handcuffs? I’m really tired of my arms being in this position,” Y/N replied.

“Yes.” Kamek then cast a spell for the handcuffs to break off and disappear.

Y/N sighed happily, finally her arms were free, and her wrists and skin could calm down. She moved her arm to stretch them out and moved her wrists in circles. Indeed, her wrists had an extreme color of red circling them.

“Allow me to heal that,” Kamek said. He cast another spell that eased the pain away and caused her skin to go back to normal.

Y/N, surprised by him, smiled, “Thank you.”

“You’re quite welcome. The news I must share with you is that the troops have been sent out and they will be searching for the princess and SuperStar,” Kamek explained.

“SuperStar? Wait a minute…isn’t that…a power up?”

“Yes. It can make anyone who uses it unstoppable. Bowser will use the SuperStar if necessary to destroy the Mushroom Kingdom. Perhaps others as well…”

Y/N’s eyes widened. That would be horrifying. The devastation and the losses that would result from such a catastrophe is too much to comprehend. She recalled that Mario and Luigi had used the SuperStar to beat Bowser before. If Bowser were to use that power up…She shook her head. He really would be hard to beat. Although she had not gotten into battle with him herself, she could tell just how powerful he was when he had gripped her in his clawed hands before.

“I have had a lot on my mind about you. I know that the king wishes you to have a fondness of him,” Kamek continued. “He does not admit it out loud, but I sense it.”

“Yeah. Right. He really wants me to like him by locking me up. That makes total sense!” Y/N couldn’t help her sarcasm. She had a hard time believing him.

“It’s true. I have been with Bowser ever since he was born. I know him and I know he sometimes gets himself into denial with certain things.”

“So, what, are you telling me to try and get him to soften up around me again and have him forget about Princess Peach? I don’t think his highness would like to see me prance around his castle again so freely. He wants me to play the hostage and that’s what I’m doing.”

“I’m aware of his majesty’s orders. However, I want his happiness more than anything. He is lonely and he wants a companion. He is complicated, but he can be someone nice to be around as you know first-hand.”

Y/N shook her head, “I tried to help him. I can only do and say so much. It’s up to him in the end to walk towards happiness. I decided to no longer help him in matters of the heart. If he wants the princess so badly and to be rejected by her, that’s on him.”

“I do not like how he treated you either. I apologize-“

“He should be the one apologizing to me! Did he tell you to say sorry for him?” Y/N was irritated.

“N-No. No. I do feel bad for what he has done to you though. I’m aware that he should be the one apologizing to you and not me,” Kamek sighed.

“Why are you feeling bad for me?” Y/N was very curious as to why Kamek, seemingly, came down here on his own free will. Other than he obviously wanted her to try again with Bowser, why was he feeling bad for her? Shouldn’t Bowser be his only main concern? She didn’t understand why he was showing her care.

“I feel bad for you because I can tell you are a kind soul. You are the only other human Bowser has met who has managed to make him smile. He has only ever liked the princess and he felt that he didn’t have any other options which is why he stuck so closely to her.”

Y/N looked at Kamek with full attention.

“Then, I found you and I could tell he had an interest in you as soon as I showed you to him. I want him to be happy with someone who will genuinely like him. No pretending. Real and genuine,” Kamek said.

Y/N sighed. That was a lot to take in. Yes, she did like the moments with Bowser in the library and in the dining room. However, she already made a promise to herself to no longer help Bowser out with his love problems. She wanted to keep that promise.

“I understand that you do not wish to speak with him any longer, but I must ask this of you,” Kamek said.

“What is it?” Y/N asked with suspicion.

“I want you to be right there as soon as the princess rejects him. Tell him that he can have a happy ending with someone else.”

“Why would you have me do what I already did before? It doesn’t make sense. That would be a waste of time. Again, I really do not want to help him with his love issues.”

“I’m not asking you to be his queen, but to just be there for him. To give him comfort.”

“So, to help him with his love problems?”

Kamek sighed once more, “I sense in you that you do have a liking for him. Yes, I want you to help him with his heart. Not to be his love, but to be a friend for him.”

Y/N moved her head down and looked at the stone floor. Being a friend to him…everyone did need a friend. However, after the way he’s treated her…she was hesitant. “Do you really think he will want me around him as a friend? Remember, he only sees me as a hostage.”

“I think he’ll have a change of heart when he sees you there to comfort him. I know he hardened his heart, but I think you could help him choose to soften it again,” Kamek tried convincing her.

“I don’t know…I don’t know if…” Y/N felt pressured. She could see that Kamek was coming from a place of great care. Since Kamek said he had been with Bowser ever since his birth, he could be seen as like a father figure. She found it nice that Kamek cared so much for his king like a father would care for his son. However…

“I know that is a lot to ask of you. I just want Bowser to be happy. Whether he has a companion who is a lover or a friend at his side, I want him to see that others will come to him. I want him to see that he does not need to rely on having the princess on his side. He can have another beside him who wants to be with him,” Kamek stared down at the floor.

“I’m just not sure he’ll really want me though…”

“He does, Y/N. Of that, I can assure you. He denies it, but he does deep down inside.”

“Kamek, I…” Y/N still feeling hesitant, stopped herself. Part of her wanted to believe Kamek, but she wasn’t entirely convinced either. She didn’t want Bowser to toss her aside again. He was so quick to do 180’s and she didn’t want to experience that again.

“I can show you his mentality,” Kamek said. “I’d been working on this spell before to read minds and I just about have it down.”

Y/N looked at Kamek, “No. It’s okay. You don’t have to. I uh…” She took a deep breath. She decided to go ahead and believe in Kamek. He had known Bowser well since his day of birth. She didn’t know the king too well, but she felt that the happy time they had together was a good bonding moment. If he were willing to treat her as he had then, she wouldn’t mind trying to help him again. “I will help you out, but if he treats me poorly like before, I am done. I will not have anything to do with him again.”

Kamek smiled, “Understood. Thank you, Y/N.”

“You’re welcome.” Y/N hoped that Bowser would see her as more than a tool just as he had before in their happy moment.

“I will have to have you stay in here a little longer until the princess is brought here. I will set you free when the time is right,” Kamek said.

Y/N nodded, “Okay…um Kamek?”

“Yes?”

“Is it possible for me to…to go back to my world at some point? I have family and coworkers that will be wondering about me.”

“Yes, it’s possible. I promise to send you back if everything does not work out here.”

“If everything does end up working out, could I still go back?”

“Yes. We’ll make a way for you to see your loved ones in your world.”

Y/N sighed happily, “Great. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. Oh! Let me conjure up some food for you. I’m sure you’re hungry.”

Y/N’s stomach answered him. “Uh, hehehe…yep, I sure am.”

Kamek quickly cast a spell and food on a plate along with silverware and a cup of water appeared in front of Y/N, “There you go.”

“Thanks.” Y/N said as she began to eat.

“You’re welcome. I’ll check on you later. I’ll also be sure to have Bowser apologize to you properly.”

“Alright. Thank you.”

Kamek walked out of the dungeon closing the door behind him. He began walking down the hall to go to his room where he worked on spells. He felt that Y/N could soften the king’s heart. He knew she was right in saying that the king himself had to choose which path to take. He hoped Bowser would take the path that led to Y/N instead of the princess.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The notes wavered and ebbed as they tried to keep up with the tune of the piano. Bowser had gone to his music room to practice his song for his Peaches, but the song turned into a mixture of many songs. The scenery in the room had changed dramatically from the waterfall setting to a sunset on the beach to a mountain range that went on forever. His emotions were turbulent. Too much for him to control. He couldn’t concentrate on anything.

He could feel his heart shaking. Was he nervous? Yes. Why? Because he wanted his song to be perfect for the princess. Y/N was still invading his mind too. He had dreamt that he and Y/N were taking a walk through a cliché setting of a field with flowers. It was a lovely field. Y/N was dancing along as a breeze blew by taking a few flower petals with it. The petals encircled Y/N and himself bringing the two of them close together.

Y/N, with her (eye color) eyes stared up at him lovingly and he felt his heart swell. She had cupped his cheek and was leaning up to him. Before anything else could happen, Bowser had snapped himself awake. His emotions from then on became a mess. He stopped playing and closed the piano lid. The scenery in the room changed back to normal. He sighed and stared down at the piano lid. He had to get his head on straight. He had a lot of work to do.

[1stuffedtiger]

if you were a Mario kart item you’d either be the star (bc you are a 🌟) or the heart bc you have a big heart 💖

Omg 🥰🥰🥰 thank you!! You remind me of these:

The leaf bc you like animals and raccoons are cute, and the golden mushroom bc it's lovely and rare

[boredandtiredficwriter]

So apparently I hate myself.

I learned that there is a Gold Mario you can unlock on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe by receiving a gold trophy in all the 12 base cups at 200cc.

Now, my happy ass, having not achieved a golden trophy in 150cc decides "sounds like fun! I'm sure this couldn't possibly make me feel a disproportionate amount of rage to funi pixel car racing game!"

It can. Very much so.

To prove my point I'm firing up the notes app and cataloging my thoughts as I play each of these cups. Here ya go, cup 1 (also it starts off weird but only because i started after clearing attenpt 1):

Cup 1 (Mushroom)

• If you're in first no you're not

• HOW TF DID I GO FROM FIRST TO 8TH IN LIKE 2 SECONDS BULLSHIT

• God the lakitu's applause is such condescending bullshit

• 1 POINT AWAK FROM RANK.3

• racing on 200cc will end more relationships than uno

• Fuck you Shy Guy you stole first place AT THE LAST SECOND

• If someone tells you to touch grass just set them on Mario Circuit for 200cc

• Hope ya like WALLS

• No seriously do they have magnets

• WATER PARK 1ST PLACE LETS GOOOOOOO

• Oh to be naive and like Sweet Sweet Canyon

• Protip, use mushrooms on the terrain patches

• not like it matters because PEACH AND SHY GUY ARE SPAWNS OF SATAN

• I remember when Thwomp Ruins was my map. Oh to be young.

• Tbf there is like one section of grass I use as a shortcut that kiiiiiinda helps?

• Of course it only works if you don't go off the edge before the glider section

• HA dumb bitch

• Holy shit there's distance between me and the CPUs? Damn God likes me for once

• Final lap DONT FUCK IT UP MARIO

• AND YA DIDNT FUCK IT UP HOORAH FOR JUMPMAN

• ig DONT GO FOR THE BLOCKS on the path right before the glider section on thwomp ruins if you wanna win on 200cc

• YESSSSS GOLD TROPHY 1 DOWN, 11 MORE TO GO

Attempts: 2

More ideas for slob mario kart:

Special items like double dash!

Peach: giant cake

Throw a massive cake backwards and whoever hits it fattens up for a few seconds until they burp it out! Slows them and covers their screen in icing until it wears off. Also turns the victim into a road block!

Daisy spicy curry

Blast a large jet of firey gas either forwards or backwards. Forwards is a belch fire ball while backwards is a fart that does damage and provides a speed boost like a mushroom.

Rosalina: star bit cannon

Shoots the opponent infront of her with a bunch of star bits that home in. They swell up like a hungry Luma before blasting all the gas out and deflating

Pauline: extra bass

Uses a microphone to enhance her belch. Basically a super horn that can be used 3 times with each burst getting a wider range.

Candy Kong: Banana slamma!

Eat an entire golden banana in one go! Turn invincible and send any racers you touch spinning out with a hip check.

Kammy Koopa/Kamella: shrink spell

Shrink your opponents like lightning and cause their controls to be inverted temporarily

Birdo: egg bomb

Same as double dash but the items generated are extra fattening slowing your opponents down while giving you a speed boost

[wrecking-sequels]

[Brand New Wheels]

The store had closed its doors since five minutes but there was still no sign of Baroness Boogerface at the station, so the wrecker waited patiently on a bench with Zangief. It was from him he would learn more about the much-talked-about arcade's new entry, which was apparently called Speedstorm.

According to the bearded 'villain' who had visited day-one, it was a new racing game, with impressive tracks and a ridiculously diverse roster of characters. While intrigued at the prospective to see new faces, the colossus was more excited for Vanellope, she used to whine often on how much the place 'needed' new motors.

When said cutie finally exited her game, she seemed lightly beat down in the spirit. It was something so subtle no one could notice except Ralph. "Kid, what's with that face?" Asked the big guy, getting up as soon as he saw her. "We only played three tournaments today, three!" The girl roared in response. "Uhh okay, you didn't get a lot of players today, big deal." He shrugged, causing her to groan in frustration.

"It's not normal.. My game always makes tons of coins. We hardly ever get a break." At that, Wreck-It simply smirked. "Ah shush, it is normal. Latest additions always take the spotlight for a bit. Speaking of which.. get a load of this, it's aaa new racing game!" Dude expected leaps of joy but ended up receiving only a horrified stare.

"It's another racing game?!" Her reaction puzzled the giant to say the least. "Isn't that positive? Thought you were dying to get to this day." She just ignored him. "I knew it.. i knew it! I could feel it in my guts!" Ralph frowned and shifted his gaze to the new arrival. Wow, even the snobbish mushrooms from Mario Bros were going in to peek.

"Name's catchy, don't you think?" Needless to say, Van did not appreciate his comment. "It's lame." Yeah, 'someone' was truly bitter, and that honestly amused Ralphie. "Oh come on now, a President needs to be more mature than this." The child just gave him a face. "Like you don't know being competitive is in my code, Ugh."

It was then a peculiar group of three came out of the new system to head towards Frogger. One of them had a weird suit of armor, its chest piece was so large Ralph couldn't help thinking he looked like a walking can of Cola. Next to him strolled a woman with raven hair and almond shaped eyes, laughing with some kind of mouse sporting white gloves.

So far that was the oddest bunch of newcomers Game Central Station had ever seen. If it wasn't for the textures on their suits, no one in their right mind would tell they were from the same game. "Whaat the heck..? People is seriously spending their money to play with them??" Yes, yes they were, lots of money.

"Well, that's mean. Not everyone can be designed an adorable candy child." Inquired her bud. "Ohh now I gotta know what their karts look like!" With that she sprinted off, fueled by her hope to discover a disappointing little world, and alleviate her anxiety. Too bad upon entering, something entirely opposite welcomed them instead.

That view was stellar. On one side you had a literal frozen kingdom, in the middle a futuristic zone, and on the other side some exotic island, volcano-equipped even. For joysticks' sake it was awesome! Her smile turned upside down at the speed of light.

Wreck-It himself was seriously impressed already but hid it for the small friend. "It's.. something." Well, at least until he spotted a track in the sky, between golden clouds. "Woah! Look at that!!" Fighting her own awe, Van faked a unimpressed shrug and teleported on his shoulder. "Just move those feet Jumbo.. Don't wanna be here all day."

It wouldn't take long to find what she was looking for. One large purplish veichel awaited them at the first area. It had wheels bigger than Ralph's feet. The child was in love now and she hated herself for that. "Son of a biscuit... this is a monster..!" Obviously those toddlers at heart begun touching the car everywhere. "Shiny!"

For a while it looked like no one was around to scold them, until an odd character with dot eyes glided over using his long ears like an helicopter, confirming further just how crazy folks here looked. "Hey hey! What do you think you're doing?!? Hands off!"

Both raised incredulous eyebrows at his sight. "Is that a flying bunny?" Asked the big man. "They are soo running out of ideas." Vanellope shook her head. "It's rabbit!" Corrected the creature just before touching the ground. "Okay Mr. Rabbit, easy. We're not Kart thieves or anything." Good first impressions..

The guy already had hands on his hips. "Name's Oswald, Oswald The Lucky Rabbit. And who might you be?" He sure knew how to make you feel welcome... "Oh, I'm Wreck-It Ralph from Fix-It Felix Jr, and this here is Vanellope, ruler of Sugar Rush!" She raised a greeting hand quietly, not loving the way he introduced her like a proud father.

"Wait, Sugar Rush? That Karts game where everything is made of sweets?" Now the racer in blue was curious. "Affirmative." Confirmed the kiddo with no hesitation, only to see Oswald wear a mischievious grin. "Ahh, keepin' tabs on the competition uh?" She instinctively glitched in emberassment for a split second. This was getting interesting.

[timeforwaluigi]

Rating Mario Kart characters that I’ve mained in my life

Toad and Toadette

Mario Kart: Double Dash!! - Age I played them: 7-12

6/10 Toadette carries this team. She’s everything. He’s just Ken. 

Toad

Mario Kart: DS and Mario Kart Wii - Age I played them: 12-21

4/10 For awhile I only played him because I thought it was still Double Dash rules where I only got the golden mushroom if I was him? And then I just played him because he was the closest I could get to Toadette (I never unlocked her in the Wii version because I rarely played that one)

King Boo

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Age I played them: 21-26

9/10 He’s King Boo, he’s round and cute and when he wins he licks the air, what more could you want? Loses one point because he is a heavy character which makes absolutely no sense. Unless it’s the weight of his crown and it’s made of pure gold or something.

Waluigi

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Age I played them: 27

11/10 I’ve been playing King Boo for so long I had no idea the other characters say lines. If you lose, he either shames YOU for making him lose (”Oh come on!”) or blames everyone else (”Everybody cheated!”). His horn is OBNOXIOUS and sounds like a clown car. His limbs are so long he looks like he is struggling to stay on his bike if you make him ride a motorcycle. Bonus point awarded because when you play as Waluigi, your (personal) win is not based on whether or not you got first place, but on whether or not you’ve beaten Luigi. 

[flowerdisc4]

Longpost. Watching Mario movie and need to get this out.

Autism ahead.

MANN IM SO SICK OF THIS AUHGGGHH!!! aighHHh!!

I hate the voice for Mario. 0/10 that's not My Mario. Luigi's voice was fine. BUT HIS PERSONALITY

What have you done to my Luigi. My poor boy.

THE OPENING SEQUENCE WITH THE STUPJD DOG. Dogs don't act like that a dog would NEVER AUGGH NOT EVEN EXAGGERATING FOR COMEDIC EFFECT IM SO DONE

Just creating non problems for the main cast to have Conflict is my biggest pet peeve !!

I get it its """funny"". It would've been funnier if the dog wasn't even menacing and Luigi was just THAT scared of a harmless dog he panics and messes up

LIKE THATD BE FUNNY!! BUT NO. No we have weirdly sentient dog mess it up.

I will admit. I liked the family scene, it was done pretty well imo.

How they discover the magic pipe is, kinda fun. Don't remember if they resolve the Water Crisis later or not, but I'll see !!

(Typing this as I watch, btw. Live posting, but on tumble)

The Between when they're going through the pipe... confuses me? Why did they end up in two different places if they went through the same pipe. Mario logic isn't logicing!!

It would've been better if they went through different pipes.

I LOVEEE THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM THo i love how beautiful and inviting they made it.

Wish they weren't a coward and used toads real voice, but hey, the one they did wasn't that bad?? And got across the point while not being annoying (imo)

The dry bones bit was fun, and I like how the darklands trees are square like and windy

Is.. hitting golden blocks like. Toads jobs??

Love the platforming in mushroom kingdom. Really silly and cute, love the references.

Princess peach is where I'm going to judge the hardest. She is my bugaboo wifey.

I like how she's portrayed as powerful. I wish they utilized her power more.

LOVE that she woops Mario's ass immediately.

I also like that she's got a rapunzel like personality? Immediately can tell she's been sheltered and same girly same

The obstacle course is a really fun bit, however, feels very drawn out and like we could've gotten more screentime doing other things than watching Mario boyfail again and again. There's a lot at stake and they're just... doing this. Can't he learn on the job???

Mario hating mushroom bit bad. Maybe they could've executed it better?? Idk just felt like a haha wouldn't it be funny if rather than an interesting character trait

If I hear I Need a Hero used in any context that isn't Shrek 2 ever again I'm exploding.

I like how they animated Mario's denim.

LOVINg how awkward peach is with social interaction she's actually me fr.

LOVEEE jack blacks character voice for bowser!!! Works really really well for his personality!!

I wish Mario had more personality than Typical Main Character of the Post 2010s era.

Fire flower field is suuuper cute I can't lie, plus I like peaches backstory !! I wish we understood WHY they crowned her princess tho...

GAY BOWISI SCENE AY BOWUIGI SCENE !!! Why did they make it. SO. SENSUAL.

Mixed feelings on the doomstar, probably wishing it was written better and had a Lil more impact than doomsday Debbie downer that sounds Cutie

The Kong Kart thing is like. Really cool actually. There's lives at stake but hey, take on me is playing it's time for a fun montage anyway

Wishing Kong Country had more military significance tho with how they ralk about their army, idk

The colloseum is a really fun idea tho. Love a good gladiator motif.

Dk and Mario acting kind of... kind of.......... kind of....... some fruity scents coming from the subtext

It's giving repressed homosexuality with DK

THEY KNOW WHEN BOWSWER'S ARRIVING?? THEN?? WHY?? ALL THE LOLLYGAGGIJG !!

The Mario Kart scenes are so fun. I have to admit that.

Where. Does each side keep getting information so fast. There needs to be just like, one character that explains that. A traitor or something cmon

BACK WITH THE HATE !! HATING THE CONSTANT IMPLICATIONS MARIO AND PEACH ARE FLIRTING !!!

From bowswers pov I understand. He's toxic and insecure.

But everyone else??? It gets !! Really annoying !!

My girl peach rejecting them both at the end of oddesy.

DK CATCHING MARIO WITH HIS KART??? HELLOOO?? GET MARRIEEdd??

OKAY THIS IS A PART IM MAD ABOUT. PEACH WOULDVE DONE EVERYTHING TO SAVE MARIO FUCKYOUFUCKYOU SHE WOULDVE ATLEAST TRIIIIIED

Not.not Jonah and the whale nOOOOOOOO

PECAH COULDVE USED HER WATER ATTACHMENT ABBIT AGO HUHHH HUHUHUH

I guess. She needed to warn her people. Or whatever

I like that most of the toads have sheep mentality. It's very interesting to me

Bowswers delulu ass is so funny to me

I don't like how damsel Luigi is. He's capable of things too!! Fuck you !!

NOT THE DK MARIO BEING GAY AGAIN?? hello?? They're so much gayer than I remember ??
