Wee babi Kraw *megaphone feedback sound* WEE BABI KRAW.

And a mostly normal looking gator hatchling. The woman holding him is Mayv, his ‘adoptive’ mama. I haven’t finished her little character sheet yet but I’m excited to introduce her and the rest of the gang. Also making a thing for the different alligator mutations around the swamp because that’s been fun to play around with.

Send a 📔 for a drabble between mun and muse! (Not accepting.)

AHH THIS MEME AGAIN! This drabble’s gonna be a continuation of this post, only it’s 16 years later, so it matches to when I re-discovered the franchise last year! Still takes place in the Who Framed Roger Rabbit verse, too.

Time had gone by quite a tad since the release of Osmosis Jones that summer, when Aislinn had met the title character in question when she was just a child. And since then, Aislinn had become quite fond of the white blood cell for most of her younger years, until she turned about 7, and had forgotten about him somewhere along the way; Still, he had inspired her to take better care of herself, and despite some of her habits with junk food, she had done a surprisingly good job staying trim and healthy as she grew up. Every day after elementary school, she’d tune in to watch his show Ozzy and Drix, which had aired shortly after the release of the film, where he and Drix were transferred to a teenage boy named Hector. She’d make little drawings of him in her sketchbooks, she’d once wrote a cute little poem about him for a class assignment, and had even gotten into fights at school when some bully tried to tell her she was weird for liking him, and thinking she had made up meeting the toon in person. However, as Aislinn left childhood behind and entered becoming a young woman, about the age of 21, it seemed that Ozzy had left her thoughts, as she focused more on wanting to be a voice actress for Warner Brothers. Ironic, considering he was from that company in general.

Needless to say, it had been a long time since the cell had crossed her mind.

One day, while using her laptop idly and chatting with her online friends, looking up possible conventions to go to, she saw that one of them had an icon of Ozzy, and she couldn’t help but raise brows. That character…She knew that face. It hit her like a wrecking ball. A memory from many years ago suddenly gripped at her brain, and her eyes widened, as realization then dawned on her. The vision of his smiling face at her when she was a small and young tyke popped into her head, and a big smile spread over her face. She then quickly hops off her bed, digging through some old things in her desk to find the DVD movie. She finds it, grinning at the cover of the cell and his cold pill partner on it.

Ozzy! How could she have forgotten him? 

Of course, it had been like 14 years; Plus her memory wasn’t always good, but that mattered little now; She pops in the movie, re-watching the movie that starred that upbeat and fun-loving cop she had met long ago. She laughed in amusement at the cell’s use of crude humor on-screen, finally understanding a lot of jokes she didn’t get as a little one. Man, it had been such a thrill to meet him in person, too…During the scene where Ozzy talks to Drix about making Frank vomit, Ais glances away a moment, thinking.

Did he still remember her?

Once the movie was finished, the credits rolling and the song ‘Fill Me In’ playing through her room, she gave a smile. She remembered the day they’d met; She had lost her mom in the mall after they came to California for a vacation, and had bumped into Ozzy (Quite literally.) while looking for her. She remembered his playful, kind, and confident attitude when she was scared and alone, making all her fear completely vanish, and how he’d helped her find her mother. She remembered giving him a hug in gratitude, and soon, leaving him. She sighed, rubbing her neck and looking to her laptop sadly.

She wished she could see him again. Show him how much she’d grown…

Suddenly, her green eyes catch sight of an advertisement on the screen, and she comes closer to look at it, brushing a bit of brown-blonde hair out of her eyes; A convention was opening up close to where she lived, and…Ozzy, Drix, Leah, and Thrax were going to be there, to celebrate 16 years of Osmosis Jones. Her heart leaped in her chest, as she gave an excited grin. She gets up, running to her parents’ bedroom.

“Mom! You’re not gonna believe it…!”

“Ozzy, we’re here. Ozzy. Ozzy? JONES!”

“What?! I heard ya, a’ight!”

Osmosis was reading as he, Drix, Leah, and Thrax were in pulled up to the convention center, Drix calling for him when the car came to a stop. The distracted cell had a magazine in his hands, which Leah swiped sharply and used to whap him on the head when Drix had called him the fourth time, making him blink in surprise then grin in an innocent manner. Leah rolls her eyes, smiling lightly, though. Thrax did the same, but in annoyance, stepping out of the car smoothly. Drix followed, squeezing out because of his big size. Ozzy sighed, soon stepping out, taking Leah’s hand and helping her out. Thrax played with his chain, his large claw plucking at it gently.

“I don’t even know why we’re doin’ this. Not like anybody’ll remember us.”

Ozzy looked over at his rival, nudging him lightly with an elbow and giving him a cheeky grin.

“Ah c’mon, ‘course they will! Don’t be such a drag, Thraxy!

May have been 16 years, but we’re still one’a th’classics! We’re un-for-get-able.”

The virus merely rose a brow slightly at the excited cell, scowling at him.

“Our film was a bomb, Jones. And call me Thraxy again, and I’ll murder you in front of all our fans.”

Ozzy smirks, tugging at the virus’ coat collar lightly.

“Well, somebody’s a lil’ hot under th’collar.”

Thrax makes a move to lunge for Ozzy in a fake way, and smirks when he flinches. Drix then puts a finger up, looking to the pathogen. 

“Ozzy has a point though; There may be many admirers of our film, plus we had recovered our losses from the film’s failure through home video entertainment. So perhaps we’ll run into a few fans.”

Ozzy then puts his hands up, as Thrax rolls his eyes once again.

“Hey, as long as they don’t show art’a me an’ Thrax mackin’ on each other, then I’m cool.”

“That makes two of us.”

A little while later, the convention gets underway, and cartoon fans, geeks, and enthusiasts line up to meet with voice actors, comic book artists, and of course, toons. Yakko, Wakko and Dot had shown up along with Ozzy and crew too, as well as Babs and Buster Bunny from Tiny Toons. The Warner Siblings seemed to be the big hit right now, and so far Ozzy and the gang had met only a few fans of their movie. A little while in, Ozzy starts to get a bit bored, and tells the others he was going to grab a donut then come back. He gets up out of the chair he was sitting in, and heads to the closest vendor. He watches a few new fans walk in from the front entrance, and gave a grin to a few girls, pointing a finger-gun. Half of them smiled back, but most of them just cringed and scurried off, making the cell frown. He rolls his eyes, then turns his attention back to the vendor getting his donut, when suddenly…

“S’cuse me, sorry! Just tryin’ to get by–Oh!”

Ozzy hears a female voice from above the bustle of the crowd, and feels himself being bumped into. He turns around, scowling a bit.

“Whoa, hey! What da–?”

He freezes, noticing the one who bumped into him was now on the ground, shaking her head a bit then looking up at him, her drawings scattered on the floor. Ozzy looked her over; She had pale skin, and a youthful-looking face. She had shoulder-length brown-blonde hair, and green hazel eyes. She wore blue jeans with a matching jacket, and a simple white shirt underneath, a green necklace around her neck, complimenting her eyes. There was something…familiar about her. But he couldn’t quite place it. The two stare at each other a few seconds, until the girl gave a shy little smile, rubbing her neck. She seemed…excited, yet nervous at the same time. 

“A-Ah…Sorry. I was lookin’ for my mom in the crowd and I tripped. Heh.”

He smiled, kneeling down to help her pick up her art, then happened to look down at it.

“Heh, nah, it’s cool, girl! It was an accident. No harm d–.

…”

The toon cell noticed one of the drawings…Actually, quite a few of them, were of himself. He stared a moment, then let out a low whistle, impressed, then grins back up to the girl.

“Spit, didju draw these? These’re beautiful! You got some fine talent, girl, real fine.”

The girl rubbed her shoulder as a blush came over her face, making Ozzy’s grin become a smirk. She was pretty shy, it looked like, but sweet too. He gives her a playful wink, reaching over to gently pinch her cheek, making her giggle a bit.

Why did he have that funny feeling that they’d met before?

“Heheh, and yer pretty cute, too! Y’got a name, baby?”

She merely smiled, pointing to her signature on the drawing. Ozzy looks down, and blinks in surprise. 

A memory then makes its way to the front of his mind, as he recalled someone with the same name about 16 years ago. A child, no older than five. Aislinn? That little girl he’d helped all those years ago? The one who got lost in the mall and bumped into him? This was her?

Holy spit…It was! And she still remembered him! 

He’s silent for a second or two before a wide grin came to his face, as he looked back to the girl in excitement.

“Aislinn!?“

She smiled shyly again, waving to him.

“Hi, Ozzy.”

And there goes Ozzy, wrapping her up in a tight bear-hug and making her giggle happily into his jacket, as she returns the hug. He pats her heartily on the back.

“Da-hang, girl! Look at you! Y’got so big! Haha!”

Soon, he brings her back to the booth to meet the others after meeting up with her mother, now more lively as he was remembered by an old friend.
