Beach, Pool, Sleepover and THEN Hot Springs. Here’s another serving of all the nice boys and girls from Star vs., having a nice soak after all the adventuring.

Here's Hildegard/Hildebrat

Daughter of Higgs and one of Star’s relatives (whom I've named Quasar) 

She's a distant cousin of Prisma & Nimbus

[make-some-manna]

These two should meet and fight over Marco.

Bets on who would come out on top?

I hope we see more of this character. She was cute.

I submit my findings from watching this episode so far to peer review. 

[theworldasseeninbaybayin]

An old AU plot I had for a SVTFOE fanfic that never got off the ground:

Star gets sent to St. Olga’s and gets completely brainwashed into being a proper princess.  Upon being sent home, Moon almost instantly notices something’s horribly wrong with her daughter (she’s a flawed mom, but she genuinely cares for Star after all), and decides to pay Miss Heinous a visit, first as the Queen and then undercover as a younger version of herself.  There, she quickly finds out the dark reality behind the so-called “school” and narrowly escapes brainwashing herself when the MHC storms the institution; Moon goes Butterfly mode and proceeds to utterly wreck the place.  In the aftermath, the horrified and guilt-stricken Queen finally decides to take Glossaryck’s advice and send Star to Earth—after extensive auditing, not wanting a repeat of her daughter’s traumatic experience.

Here, Marco enters the storyline as per canon: he’s called to the principal and introduced to Star, with some minor differences—none of the chaos of their first encounter, Marco brings the Butterflies to the house himself after being thoroughly notified of the princess’s troubled history, and an attempt by Ludo to steal the wand is instantly curb-stomped by the legendary Queen’s magical wrath.  The latter incident nearly pushes Moon into just bringing Star back and personally overseeing her training, but witnessing Marco’s physical prowess eventually convinces her to letting her daughter stay; that said, the queen gives our misunderstood bad boy a long and serious talk in the Diaz house regarding his responsibilities with Star (with not-so-subtle implications of a long and painful death should he try anything with her daughter), which the terrified teen quickly agrees to.  Moon also arranges for additional backup to provide training for Star’s new companion in the form of two additional squires to live with the Diazes—

(Kelly and Higgs have entered the chat)

Magical shenanigans ensue with Star’s spells often going haywire or cultural misunderstandings from the squires causing widespread disruption throughout Echo Creek.  Moon visits Earth every week to check up on her daughter, her visits creating their own brand of chaos for everyone involved.  Eventually Tom himself shows up for the Blood Moon Ball, but himself is visibly dismayed by the extent of Miss Heinous’s brainwashing and decides to bring Star’s companions along and just let his ex have fun at the event instead of forcibly bonding himself to her—Season 3’s shown that he genuinely cares for Star, so why not let that part of him show as well?   Surprisingly, it’s Tom, Star, and Marco who get bonded by the Blood Moon this time; none of them are sure why that happened, and all parties return to their respective homes deep in thought.

The very next day, Tom shows up on Marco’s doorstep as Echo Creek’s newest exchange student.  The latter is visibly nonplussed by the unexpected turn of events, but lets him in anyway.

More fun and adventures occur—Tom’s odd administrative duties as Prince of the Underworld (guest appearances from Janna who bonds with the demon), Hekapoo shows up and offers to grant Marco dimensional scissors in exchange for seven minutes in the Neverzone, Higgs and Kelly take the lead in the dimensional travails that ensue, some minor “friendly” rivalry between Marco and Tom over who’s the “better friend,” a budding friendship between Jackie and Marco begins (the Jarco date happens, but both eventually agree they aren’t cut out to be a couple just yet), and Star slowly, gradually starts to get her old self back.  As five women now frequent the Diaz household (H-Poo notwithstanding), Marco Harem jokes become popular much to his dismay—no thanks initially to Tom, who eventually stops after realising to his horror that he himself somehow ended up becoming a potential member.  Starco?  Everyone from the parents to the “harem members” have their suspicions, but it’s a slow burn—Marco respects Star’s boundaries too much to try anything, and Star herself hasn’t seemed to said anything (not that she says much, either way).

And as for Star?  In her mind, it’s pretty clear—if Janna and Jackie don’t claim their crushes for themselves, she’s going to bag Tom and Marco both if it’s the last thing she does.  After all, who says she can’t have a harem of her own?

So what's Daphne like?

Daphne was the Captain Commander of the Queensguard before Higgs, her second-in-command being Higgs' father Humperdink Lapkus, and she's one of the few Captain Commanders known for her more magical offense than her physical skill. She specializes/specialized in plant magic which was pretty evident since she basically turned her office in the castle into a greenhouse.

On top of that, she was known for doing anything and everything by the book. Requirements needed to be met, you could only do so much before asking permission to do more, etc., and she ran the Queensguard under a tight and watchful eye. She also knew every member of the guard's officers like the back of her own hand and knew exactly what made them tick (which is why she was able to get Galahad on board with having a squire so easily).

After she retired as Captain Commander she moved in to a manor (called the Officer's Club) that other retired officers are allowed to move into if they want to. She also started tending to/basically growing much of the castle's gardens and is responsible for at least a good 60% of the current foliage.

sometimes i get a little sad that jackie and higgs play such a small role in the fanfics show that i read they are more relevant and better than the janna series on the other hand she was important but not so much and kelly was just used just to prolong the shipp war and start a forced romance with Marco that went nowhere

I have conflicting feelings about Jackie, because on one hand she got used exactly for the reasons she was “advertised” as, as Marco’s formative first crush and first girlfriend, an important element in his arc as a character and a milestone between the first and second part of his story; but on the other hand at times she also seemed like the screentime and development she got didn’t match the perceived importance the show conveyed to most. 

Kelly is even a weirder case because she starts as a random tertiary character with no real reason to stick around (they even kinda retconned Star and Pony’s past to fit here in the picture, by having her be part of their Bounce Lounge’s days), and then they started using her more building her up on the way with (that’s my impression as a viewer obviously, maybe that wasn’t the case on the writers’ side) little to no plans. She becomes a party monster with a dysfunctional relationship, then a fierce warrior, then emotional support for Marco, then shipping candidate but gets discarded soon enough because she obviously was an incredibly poor fit and was just a way to delay Starco’s interactions while things evolved in S4... she ended up filling an unusual spot in the series, and I could never fully enjoy her as a character for that, even before the shipping part started.

Higgs... well she could have been used more had the show dwelled more on Marco’s squire training (and it wouldn’t have been bad at all if we saw something more, even just one segment between, say, Monster Bash and Marco Jr.), but other than that I don’t exactly feel like she was necessarily wasted potential, since she was introduced as a tertiary “I’m in this episode and then maybe never again” character like many others. Could have been easily used in fun ways though, I admit that. A Janna with rage and bitterness instead of chill.

Janna is perfect.

New fancomic! Although now I feel like drawing some watamote for a change.

Squire  Talk

Higgs: This date is boring Marco: This isn't a date. I said I was going to the store Higgs: Then why did you ask me to come with you Marco: I didn't. I told you specifically not to come with me and then you said "I don't care Marco, I'll do whatever I want!"
