Guess who made these after trying to draw a hunter but it looked so off they made headshots of their faces with their headcanons infused so they'll feel better.

It's me. I'm them.

I have so many more headcanons for the hunter trio—but until I know how to word them properly without sounding insane it's staying in my bunker.

Do I tag Reedmace and the VAs?? I'm tagging Reedmace and the VAs.

Been working on making a mixed-media, foldable, Disco Elysium inspired zine! Did a bunch of scans today for one of the pages, so I wanted to share my progress here and hopefully get some opinions.

For context, the lines for this page are:

"The world is ending

And it sings, radio waves plucked along the E-string"

On the left here we have Scan 9, and on the right is Scan 14. The biggest feature I like about Scan 9 is that those fine tuners are BRIGHT. This is a common feature on early scans that sort of got 'fixed' as I kept going. Scan 14 doesn't have this, but in exchange you can see way more of the strings. In fact, 14 shows off the violin as a whole pretty well, you can even see the f-holes if you squint! It also has better string placement for where words need to go, especially up top there.

Here we have Scan 15 (left) and Scan 16 (right). These were the last two scans I did, acting on an idea that had kind of been living in the back of my mind since I started doing these. Since the theme of the zine is 'Porch Collapse', I thought the idea of someone reaching out from the pale was really cool! It also shows off the scanner's capabilities a little better. My main concerns is that the addition makes things too busy, and since I didn't have this idea in mind as I wrote this zine, it isn't directly reflected in the lines for this page.

It does look cool though! I did 15 first and wasn't quite happy with the finger placement (this was a very awkward position to get right haha) but after doing 16 I think I might like the first one better? 16 has a kind of 'trapped' desperation to it, but 15 fades away so nicely. Idk! Again, I'd love to hear what folks think.

[akemi-snow]

It's them.

Don't let that serious face fool you. Izumo was the one who came up with whatever idea put them there. Kotetsu only made it worse.

I got the background from here but had to edit the heights bc my boys are smol

After getting into Mario with a more “fandom” kind of mindset, and more specifically getting a bigger interest in the RPG games, something that amuses me a lot are the people in youtube comments trying to argue that the Koopalings aren’t Bowser’s children.

Like, don’t get me wrong, I know Miyamoto retconned their link to Bowser. But the funny thing is, even to this day, Nintendo themselves are still writing those kids as if they were related to Bowser !

Seriously :

- In New Super Mario Bros Wii and Wii U, the Koopalings are attacking the castle along with Junior/Bowser, thus putting them on the same level of importance as Bowser and his son. The ending cutscenes do the same thing, especially the one in Wii U that just screams “they’re a family”. Plus, all the Koopalings serve as world bosses, which was kinda Junior’s role in DS, yet again putting them on the same level.

- In New Bros U, they all have their own ship. The only character to have a ship with their face on it before had always been Bowser.

- As I’ve seen someone point out in a comment section, the Koopalings are different skins of Junior in Smash Ultimate, again putting them on the same level as Bowser’s son. They might also be skins of Junior in Mario Maker 2 but I’m not sure on this one.

- In New Bros 2, they’re using a giant clown car, which is implied to belong to Bowser as Bowser and Junior are the only ones with a recurring clown car and Junior’s is too small. I doubt Bowser would let just about anybody use his car.

- On top of that, each has their own clown car in Smash.

- You know that icon/logo of his head thing that Bowser has (the one we see in games like 64 when we die) ? Bowser Junior had had one for a while now and more recently each Koopaling were given one (I think you can see them at Nintendo World in Bowser’s castle ?).

- Since they were originally created as Bowser’s children, they’re the same type of Koopa as him, and that fact hadn’t been changed in recent years. Hell, outside of Ludwig in Mario World and the fights in Superstar Saga, the Koopalings are never shown to breath fire, yet in the remake of Superstar Saga, they chose to keep the fire breath (except for Ludwig ironically enough). They could’ve easily removed the fire breath to make them more similar to Boom Boom, especially since Boom Boom has recently been shown with spikes on his shell, but they chose to keep this ability. Granted their shell plastron is different from Boom Boom, but that’s another design change Nintendo could make to set them apart from Bowser (giving them the same shell as Boom Boom to make it seem like they’re the same species, instead of keeping them as “Royal Koopas”).

In short, the Koopalings’ design wasn’t changed after the retcon, making them, Bowser and Junior the only members of that specific type of Koopa, thus implying they might be related. It’s also not helped by them having magic (which only Magikoopas and Bowser have) + being high-ranked members of the army. They might also be the only minors in the army, which raises a few eyebrows as to how they got the job (why would Bowser hire a bunch of children/teenagers to put in charge of his army ? Granted some like Ludwig, Roy and Wendy might be adults by now but I can’t bring myself to see Lemmy and Larry as anything other than teenagers).

- Saw a video of the bosses in Paper Mario Color Splash, and the minions (paratroopas) address Ludwig as “your evilness”, which is pretty reminiscent to how Bowser is called by his army, most notably by Kamek (“you grouchiness”, stuff like this)

- Baby Bowser and Bowser Jr are referred to as “young master” by Kamek. In the RPGs, the Koopalings are sometimes called “master [name]” (and “mistress Wendy”) when talked to individually. Note that both this point and the previous one are for the English version tho, not the Japanese one (no idea how they’re called in Japan).

- There’s that one Super Mario Adventures comic made in the 90s that was apparently re-released a few years ago (something like 2017-2018 ?), aka well after Nintendo retconned the kids’ relationship with Bowser (around 2012). Yet, in this comic, at least in the English version, the Koopalings are explicitly said to be Bowser’s children, with him saying he wants to marry Peach so they can have a mom + the kids calling him dad. And I don’t think they changed this dialogue in the re-release ?

- Bowser Jr’s Journey. Just, Bowser Jr’s Journey. After seeing all the cutscenes of this game, it is a crime that those kids aren’t related ! Hell there’s literally a moment where Junior pulls out the “I’ll tell dad !” card on Roy ! And let’s not forget stuff like the interactions between Junior and most notably Ludwig/Morton/Roy, Junior saying “us Koopalings” at some point thus including himself amongst that group, or stuff like him singing “I’m the one who wears the crown” making it sound like he’s saying “I’m the one chosen amongst the eight of us”. Then there’s the “family drama” vibe in the first half, the cute moments etc (Also unpopular opinion but after seeing that game, Ludwig should still be the heir of the throne. He has what it takes to be a fantastic king ! Granted Junior is still extremely young and could learn and mature.)

- Also about Jr’s Journey, the main conflict actually works a lot better if you imagine the kids to be siblings, with the Koopalings talking down to Junior because he’s the baby of the family + they resent him for taking the throne from them, while Junior is tired of his siblings babying him + he’s that kind of kid who orders the older siblings around because he thinks he has the power to do so. Them being siblings also justifies why Junior changes his mind so easily during the beach scene and then is quickly shown to be strongly attached to the others (getting happy when Iggy gets his memories back, ordering Ludwig to stay with him from now on, that whole adorable scene with Morton etc).

Meanwhile, if you see the Koopalings as nothing more than high-ranked underlings, it’s weird why they would have such an issue with Junior, the son of their king who is also their boss, and likewise it’s weird why Junior would take such issue with them only to have such a quick change of heart. Idk, I feel like if they weren’t siblings they probably wouldn’t spend that much time together, making both their whole conflict and strong bond a bit weird. And in general their interactions in this game read more as people who are widely different and wouldn’t usually be friends yet still love each other, which is the kind of dynamic many siblings tend to have (isn’t there a poll going around about whether you’d be friends with your siblings if they weren’t your siblings, and the option winning is “we wouldn’t be friends” ?)

- According to their page on the Mario wiki, during an interview revealing them in Mario Kart 8, Miyamoto used a word that means either “underlings” or “adopted children” when mentioning their relationship to Bowser (btw I know it’s the most popular headcanon anyways but them being adoptive children is just perfect. It would explain why 1. Some might be young adults while Bowser is younger than 40 depending on how old you see him, 2. Why they look so widely different from Bowser and each other, 3. Why Junior is the rightful heir).

- Also according to the wiki, the Italian and German versions of Mario and Luigi Paper Jam has mentions of them being Bowser’s kids, which I find hilarious. The translation teams didn’t give a fuck !

So yeah, when it comes to the Koopalings not being Bowser’s kids : who’s gonna tell Nintendo ?

(Side note about the whole idea of “Bowser clearly likes Junior more and neglects his older kids” : what if instead it was just that the Koopalings are teenagers/young adults now so Bowser is giving them their space + have them busy with royal duties, hence why he doesn’t spend that much time with them ? Plus, in all the examples that put the Koopalings on the same level as Junior, it’s pretty evident that they have the same privileges)

[raiiny-bay]

it’s honestly kinda crazy to me that kel & co were literally the first OCs i ever made

[guinevereslancelot]

florist roses having no scent is actually so messed up. we bred the roses to look "perfect" and last a long time and but they have lost The thing that people have loved them for the most for thousands of years. now when u smell a boquet of roses all you can smell is the chemical scent of plant food unless they're actual garden roses. there's a metaphor in here somewhere

[yourfavisfromnewjersey]

Hedgehog from Summer Camp Island is canonically from New Jersey!explanation below cut:

It is alluded to throughout the show that Hedgehog and her friend Oscar Peltzer are both from New Jersey, and in the season 6 episode "If Only I Had A Wand" it is directly confirmed that they are both from New Jersey. If I missed an earlier point where it is directly called to attention that she is from New Jersey feel free to let me know!

Cringetober day 9: Crackship/rarepair

ft Kurai and Tori who has a less than subtle crush on her hehe

Today's new OC is Kurai :> she is,,, one of the 8 main characters that gets thrown around in all my universes and I think the only one never to go evil in at least one KDJHKDJH. she was created as a middle character at first and just wormed her way into the main cast and now is part of the main four of the main 8 (shhh don't think about it so much-) her hair came to me in a dream and she can roller skate

anyway, she and tori def have romantic potential and tori def has a crush on her in a lot of universes/stories but I am realizing there's not a single one where Kurai actually knows and so I chose em for today DJHKDJ-
