What was zhao's character designing process like?

Hello! Thanks for asking, I'll try to keep this as simple as humanly possible-

-the beginning stages of Zhao's character

(Ignore the bad quality of the pictures, I was lazy-)

I've actually had Zhao for quite a few years now, but I think these drawings I made like 9 months ago are the oldest ones that I could find. As you can probably see, in the begging she was a primarily jttw OC, I remember being super into OSP (which I still am), so when I started watching their jttw series I immediately got to making an OC because I really liked the world and all.

There's not much to say about the design honestly. But I will say why the hair changed, back then, her hair was very tiger-y but why has it changed so much if she's still a tiger? Well it's because back then I actually really liked the hair, but as time went on I thought it was way too much. However I really got attached to the whole "Cursed for disobeying your family so that you can never forget about them when you look at your own face.", so I decided to keep the orange hair just remove the details.

However a lot of the drawings you will see still have the stripes, but you'll see how they became more and more simple over time.

(note: All of the drawings you will see of her old design are pretty old so my art skills have improved-)

When I just started watching lmk I already knew I wanted to change up her character a bit. So I did a mini re-design. Again not much to say about her design except that I wanted it to look very demon-y (because she actually used to be a tiger demoness)

However I felt she was too "soft", so I changed up her character a bit to be more cold and "mature", because I wanted her to have a bigger contrast in personality with Sun Wukong. I'll get into that later :>

And as you can see I was still experimenting with certain designs but in the end I ended up with the last one for a while.

Then something awoke in me and I was finally like: This hair is mad complicated let's simplify this sucker-

So some (a lot of) experimenting:

(as you can see I've got a very inconsistent style)

And with that I eventually got this kinda design:

As you can see, this is was the start of a ✨new era✨

(you can still see these drawings up on my blog if you scroll down enough-)

And this design stuck for a while until I made a certain drawing for a certain @/camhues 👀

At this time I have started reading Circe and was very inspired by her character :0

She changed from being cold to more motherly. She's still mature but more clever, compassionate and caring. (yet still pathetic in my eyes). One of my friends here on tumblr @/doppel-doodles explained her PERFECTLY- "A fierce tigress in the body of a gentle mother cat" (like who gave them the right-), this explains her character very well because despite being very peaceful she's still a strong sorceress-

Now, Zhao is still kinda quiet and reserved considering her unhealthy past. But that ties a bit more into her connection with Wukong, which I'll get into in a bit.

I wanted Zhao to seem more "out of place", back then she just seemed like a basic bish girlboss OC and like someone who would make a good background character-

I also decided to give her a full name (because my dumb ahh realized Zhao is a Chinese SURNAME-) so I decided on Zhaoyan, also funfact Zhao's father used to call her "Zhaodi" because that name means "requesting a brother" (Because sexism yaaayyyyyy-)

My Zhao design is also heavily inspired by @/gigizetz Circe design, and her hair is very much inspired by Rapunzel from tangled-

And so yeah, then we got to her current design

While I can't really give anymore specific references, I can tell you a bit on how I settled on this design :D

Note: I wanted her to have a more exotic, tropical and ancient vibe if that makes sense. She is a spiritual maiden, sometimes even described as a sorceress, and considering the role I settled on giving her in the story it makes sense she would seem like "something new" or something out of the blue if you will. Even though she's a Peach Maiden, she doesn't exactly look like one, which I honestly think is really exiting to work with-

There's still some lore I haven't spilled yet that would say more about her design, but I hope to reveal that in the future!

Now, all the lore of her current character ties to one specific thing, aka her most important role in lmk- her connection to Monkey. Now as I mentioned, Zhao and Wukong were made to be opposites, or well to seem like opposites (one is chaotic and one is calm). Also the mear fact that the Chinese monkey zodiac and Chinese tiger zodiac are specifically referred to as not being able to get along so well.

But in reality they're quite similar, both get over looked because of their unthreatening personalities despite being really damn powerful. Both kinda stand out in physical appearance too compared to the other characters, and look alike in a way (same ginger hair and golden eyes). And not to mention they both push others away from them because of their pasts despite caring a lot.

A fun part about writing Zhao's character is she also serves as a way to find out more about Sun Wukong and jttw as a whole while still being her own character.

So yeah, that's basically it! Sorry for this being so fricking long I like rambling about my girl- (no I do not have a favorite lmk OC wdym?)

Fell free to ask more questions they're always fun as hell to answer!! :D

I am so annoyed that people hate Wish. Because why do you hate it? Genuinely sit down and ask yourself what you hate about the movie.

"The animation is bad" I'm sorry, I didn't know anything that didn't make the characters look like bug-eyed Barbie dolls was bad. I am personally THRILLED to see a different animation style from Disney. Because their one aesthetic has completely dominated cgi animation for decades and it's honestly kind of boring. I love movies like Book Of Life that experiment with animation styles. And let's be clear, this movie's style is not that insanely different. It's really great to see Disney experiment with more stylized art. And hey if it's not for you, go watch one of the hundreds of movies they made with the hd bug-eyed barbie style.

"The Villain song is bad." Okay....again it's just different than a typical villain song. I think it's actually really cool that they're using a style typically reserved for characters like Kristoff and Alladin and giving it to the villain. It's interesting that they're challenging the masculine image they've created. My understanding is the character singing the song is the king and the MC's father. So this song is really exploring the pop trope usually given to heroes to show how wanting recognition for not being more evil than you couldn've been is villain behavior. And just as a side note I don't think Disney's done a recognizable "Villain Song" since Tangled. So at least this movie actually took the risk.

I mean, it's also way too soon to cast judgement. At this phase in Frozen's promo people were making insane criticisms, saying Elsa was just a recolored Rapunzel from Tangled, that Disney would butcher the Project, That the animation was shoddy, etc. I have been tired of Disney's monopoly for years and frustrated by the way that monopoly refuses to take artistic risks. Finally we have a film that seems to deviate slightly from the ever-present Disney formula and y'all are losing it.

Maybe you'll hate it regardless. That's fine, but instead of criticizing choices that are different from what you're used to, maybe ask yourself why the creators made the artistic choices they did. There is no such thing as "good" and "bad" media, but everything we see is a choice that is trying to convey the themes and ideas in the media. If you reject everything that's different you will never be able to explore other points of view.

Angels and Demons

(Part Nine of the Patron Saint of Hunters series)

Notes: As someone who hasn’t finished Supernatural, I don’t know if they actually touch on reincarnation. I just felt like touching on it so I pulled it in. Funny story: My beta-reader was reading this fic and near the end someone screamed and flailed an arm out. She was like,” That scream surprised me and it was in my head.” She also keeps saying, “My boy” every time Jack comes up. 😂

“You used to paint?” Cas asks, looking at the painting Sam finished just before he came in.

“I used to paint all the time,” Sam answers, his voice sounding a little off but Cas chalks it up to issues humans normally face. “When I wasn’t doing schoolwork or other important stuff. I used to rant about art styles too.”

“Did you?”

“Yeah, and Jess used to love that I would just go on a tangent if I knew a lot about the topic that got mentioned.”

“Jess?” Cas asks.

Sam freezes, looking a little like a deer in headlights. “Yeah, Jessica Moore. I was gonna marry her before everything went to shit. She… She’s gone.”

Cas thinks about it for a moment, then smiles.

“What?” Sam asks.

“Are you sure you want to know?”

“I’m sure.”

“Her Heaven is very nice. Lots of memories of the two of you,” Cas says.

Sam smiles sadly, “Thanks, Cas.”

Cas nods, then Sam heads over towards Dean. Cas puts his hands in his pockets, wondering if he should have told Sam about that. If it would have been better not to say anything at all.

I’m supposed to be a perfect pillar of strength.

Cas, Jack, and Emily are on the road, heading towards Fredericksburg, Virginia to investigate strange deaths that have been happening in the area. The current topic is the play that they watched Serenity and Adalynn act in that morning before they got on the road. Cas is starting to drone out Emily explaining the finer points of how they changed the Rapunzel story so it wasn’t too dark. He has other things he has to think about.

I need to speak to Crowley soon. If I don’t get him off of my case, I’m going to be constantly looking over my shoulder to make sure that he isn’t too close.

“Couldn’t we have stayed with the Braeden’s for the day?” Jack asks, breaking Cas out of his thoughts.

“No, we have a case to attend to,” Emily says, looking back to smile at Jack. “We’ll go and see them again pretty soon though.”

Cas sees Jack smile through the rearview mirror.

“What did you think of the play, Cas?” Jack asks.

“I thought that it did a good job of explaining complex things to children,” Cas answers. “I didn’t know that humans thought that teaching their young children about sex in the woods was a good idea.”

Emily smacks Cas upside his head, “It was only vaguely implied for a reason.”

“Oh. My bad.”

After driving until ten o’clock at night, Cas finally pulls into a motel in a small town. Then he turns the Impala off. Emily gets out and leans against the side of the Impala.

“Hey, I have some stuff that I need to get done,” she says. “I’ll be back.”

“Alright, just make sure that you stay safe, Emmy,” Cas says as he gets out. “Do you need to use the car?”

“I can drive her?”

Cas nods.

“Then sure, it’ll make it easier.”

Cas tosses Emily the keys and grabs his bag along with Jack’s. Jack gets out of the car as Emily gets into the driver’s seat.

“I’ll see you guys in a bit,” she says.

Both wave, then head to get a room. After waking up the person sitting at the desk, it takes almost fifteen minutes to get two keys. They head to the room and Cas opens it. Jack looks around as they walk in.

“Do you want the bed?” Jack asks. “I don’t really sleep.”

“I don’t ever sleep,” Cas replies.

Jack nods, then sits down on the bed. After handing Jack his bag, Cas puts his own down by the couch and sits down.

“What do we do now?” Jack asks.

“Usually I meditate, but we can do whatever you’d like to do,” Cas answers.

“So I can turn the TV on?”

Cas nods, so Jack grabs the remote and turns the TV on. He flips through the channels and the two end up glued to a documentary about turtles. Jack falls asleep around one in the morning, which is also around the time that Emily gets back.

“Can you stay and watch Jack?” Cas asks. “I have something I have to attend to quickly.”

“Of course,” Emily answers. “You trust me enough to watch your baby?”

“Of course, Emmy. You’ve done nothing but prove that you’re capable.”

Emily smiles, “Go and do that thing.”

Cas heads out to buy a few things and then to one of his safehouses. He starts setting everything up, making sure that it’s all perfect. After a short while, Cas finishes his task, and grips the desk tightly, trying to keep his resolve. After a deep breath, he drops the barrier keeping him hidden from everyone. He keeps breathing, even though he doesn’t need oxygen, until he hears it.

“Oh, Cassie. It’s been too long.”

Cas turns and sees Crowley standing in the middle of the next room.

“You’re losing your touch. I was able to find you with ease.”

“That didn’t feel odd to you?” Cas asks, pointing at the ceiling.

Crowley looks up and sighs at the devil’s trap painted on the ceiling in baby blue paint. “Oh, that is ugly,” Crowley says. “Were they out of red paint? Why didn’t you just do it in blood?”

“Because I’m not harming anything to trap you,” Cas answers. “Welcome to my safe house. What do you think?”

Crowley looks around, “It looks terrible. No personality anywhere.”

“Why have you been looking for me?”

“Lots of people are looking for you, Cassie. You’ve got something both parties want.” “What?” “I would say personality, but your entire personality is being perpetually confused. That weapon you got on one of your last little adventures with your new pets…”

“They aren’t pets,” Cas growls. “None of them ever were.”

“Whatever you say. That weapon is powerful, created to be able to control an army with a single thought.”

“Huh, that’s interesting considering I’ve never heard of it.”

“Very hush hush until recently. The higher ups of Heaven’s forces didn’t want anyone looking for it or getting their hands on it, since that puts them in a very difficult situation.”

“Leave me alone, Crowley. If I find you trying to find me again, I will personally send you to Purgatory to see all of the monsters you sent there.”

“Not so fast there. I wasn’t looking for you to take it from you.”

“Then what did you want?”

“I want to help you beat the army. Whether I would have admitted it at the time, I liked those boys. They shouldn’t have had to die for something that came back. Hell wants the monsters to kill people so we can get the souls, and Heaven just wants to contain the situation as much as they think they’re able to. You want to get rid of them, which is what I want. Work with me.”

Cas pulls the desk chair out and sits down, folding his arms. He glares at Crowley while Crowley seems to be attempting to figure out what Cas’ motive for glaring is.

“Are you gonna keep flirting with me or can we get this show on the road?” Crowley asks.

“How do I know that I can trust you?” Cas replies. “You’ve done more than one thing to betray my trust. I’m not someone that you should cross lightly anymore.”

“Aww, you’re such a flirt. Got something up your sleeves that I don’t know about?”

“Would you like to find out?”

“While I am curious, I’m not that curious. Look, I’m not doing this for you. It’s in my best interest to get rid of these things. They’re disrupting my plans, so I want to get them away from everything as soon as possible.”

“Fine.” Cas stands up. “I’ll allow you to help me on one condition.”

“What’s that condition?” Crowley asks.

“You tell me who gave you the information we got for that mission forty years ago and where I can find them,” Cas answers. “It’s also understood that if you attempt to betray me, I’ll kill you without a second thought. I have people to look out for.”

“I’ll give you that information when we win.”

Cas removes part of the devil’s trap. “Feel free to go and plot. I’ll let you know if I need you,” Cas says, waving his hand towards Crowley.

“So rude,” Crowley says. “Won’t even buy me a drink for my troubles.”

“ Out, Crowley .”

Crowley disappears, leaving Cas alone.

Cas flies back to the hotel room and Jack wakes up and sits up when Cas does. “Ssh,” Cas whispers. “Go back to sleep. I’m here.”

Jack lays back down with a smile and goes back to sleep.

“That was cute,” Emily says. “I love that kid.”

“What’s not to love?” Cas replies. “So what was that thing?”

“I’ll tell you at a better time. You should rest, since you do need it.”

“Just waiting until you came back.”

She settles into the second bed and Cas situates himself on the couch. He starts meditating to try and clear his head. Everything with the Verum Malum and Crowley are starting to stress him out.

I want them gone, but trusting the thing that got them killed? I swore that I wouldn’t do this again. This is so wrong.

“Dad, are you okay?”

Cas opens his eyes and Jack is sitting upright with a sleepy expression. Cas blinks twice, processing what Jack asked.

“Yes, I’m alright,” Cas answers. “Are you having a hard time sleeping?”

Jack shrugs, “I just felt a weird power surge and that woke me up.”

Cas gets up and walks over to Jack’s bed, then sits down. He puts his hand on Jack’s forehead.

“What are you doing?” Jack asks.

“I’m checking to see if you still need sleep. Since you don’t function the way a normal person does, I have to check. But yes, you do still need sleep.”

Jack lays against Cas’ side and closes his eyes. Cas runs a hand through Jack’s hair until he falls back asleep.

No need to worry about all of that now, just focus on what’s in front of me.

Cas stays there until Emily gets up later that morning, around seven o’clock. When she gets up, so does Jack. Then they pack up and get back on the road. They arrive the next morning, and decide to check into a motel so that they can plan their strategy while Emily gets the info they need from the police.

“So we’re supposed to track this thing so we can figure out what it is?” Jack asks.

“Not exactly,” Cas answers, “We’re tracking where it’s been and the victims to try and find out what it is. Following the trail isn’t always a surefire way to figure that out. We may think it’s one thing, and then get slapped into next week by another thing. Unfortunately spoken from experience.”

“That sounds painful.”

“It very much was.”

Emily walks in. “The only connections that the victims have is that they all went to the same church. One of those really nutty ones that gives sane Christians a bad name.”

“We should go investigate the church then,” Cas says. “See if there are any signs of what's killing the members.”

They head out to the Impala and drive to the church. Cas gets out with Emily. Jack’s door is open, but he isn’t getting out right away.

“Are you alright, Jack?” Cas asks.

“My shoelace is stuck,” Jack answers.

“I’ll help him, you can go ahead and head inside, Cas,” Emily says.

“Alright, thank you,” Cas replies, then strides towards the church.

He walks in and after searching for a minute, he hears music playing from a room with the door shut. He doesn’t recognize the song, but it definitely sounds sexual in nature.

“This song shouldn’t be in a holy place, should it?” Cas wonders aloud as he heads towards the door the music seems to be coming from.

He opens the door and there’s two people taking each other’s clothes off. Cas shuts the door again with the appropriate surprised Pikachu face.

“That definitely should not be happening in a church.”

“Did you find something?” Emily asks.

“Something that should not be in a church,” Cas answers.

“Like a demon? A talisman?”

“Exposed private areas.”

Emily’s face contorts for a moment, then she starts laughing. The door opens and the man looks furious.

“Don’t you know how to knock?” he asks.

“Don’t you know that it is immoral and disgusting to do that in a house of the Lord?” Cas replies.

The man looks like a deer in headlights. “It wasn’t what it looked like.”

“With Take Me To Church in the background?” Emily, who’s finally managed to stop laughing, asks, “I bet it wasn’t what it looked like.”

“Why would someone name the song that?” Cas asks.

“I’ll explain it later. We have a few questions for you about the people around here that are being killed. You are the pastor, aren’t you?”

“I’ll be out in a few minutes,” he says, then shuts the door again.

“It’s a song about how people use sex and other people as the god over their life.”

“That is a terrible idea. You’re going to end up with children, or an unhealthy obsession with someone.”

Emily nods. Cas hears the front doors open, so he turns to see who’s coming. He sees someone he recognizes when she comes into view.

“That’s the girl that I saved a while back,” Cas says. “She’s a hunter.”

“She’s a hunter? You’re positive?”

“I saved her from being mauled by a mythical protector of crops. That makes me feel fairly positive.”

She sees Cas and jogs over. “What are you doing here?” she asks.

“I could ask you the same thing,” Cas replies without thinking it through.

“I’m hunting something.”

“So are we,” Emily cuts in. “Hi, how are you?”

“I’m okay. I’m Jess, by the way.”

“Emily, and this super rude dude next to me is Cas.”

“I know. He’s the guardian of hunters,” Jess says.

“Aww, you’re famous,” Emily teases Cas.

“Not exactly, but the point is taken. Where’s Jack?”

“He got distracted by the candles at the altar so I left him to stare at them.”

“Maybe we can work together,” Jess offers. “I’ve been working this case for three days, so it’s possible that we can figure it out faster together.”

“Have you talked to the pastor yet?” Cas asks.

She shakes her head, “That’s what I came here to do. After figuring out that the only link between the vics is this place, I had to come.”

“Why don’t you two go find Jack and look for anything here while I talk to the pastor?”

“Sounds good,” Emily says.

They leave, so Cas returns his attention to the door. It’s oddly quiet, so Cas opens the door. The curtain is fluttering due to the wind coming in from the open window and nobody’s in there. He walks in and checks for them, but still doesn’t find them. He sticks his head out of the window and they’re nowhere in sight. He walks back out of the room and folds his arms.

I can’t believe that they ran.

“Dad!” Jack shouts.

Cas turns and Jack runs into him, hugging him. Cas just starts rubbing Jack’s back while watching Emily and Jess walk over. Jack pulls away once the two get over to them.

“I think the pastor ran,” Cas says. “The window was open and the two are gone.”

“We don’t necessarily need him,” Jess says. “I have an idea of what it is.”

“We should still check and make sure that they’re not still here,” Emily replies. “You wanna come with me, Jack?”

Jack turns towards Cas, who nods. Jack nods, a big smile on his face. Jack and Emily head down a hallway and once they’re out of sight, Cas turns back to Jess.

“What were you thinking?”

“I think our monster is a Tarhaimian,” Jess says.

“A monster that feeds on human faith,” Cas says. “That’s a good thought.”

“Thanks,” she replies. “That means that it’ll stay close to the church, which means that we’ll have an easier time finding it.”

Cas nods. Cas hears a crash coming from the sanctuary, so he runs in that direction and he can hear Jess right behind him. He gets there and Jack’s standing in the middle of a circle of destroyed pews.

“Dad, no!” Jack shouts.

Before Cas has a chance to ask Jack what’s the matter, he blacks out.

Cas opens his eyes to complete darkness. He feels himself completely tense up, but he forces himself not to panic. He’s tied up, but that’s not difficult to deal with. He doesn’t feel any of the presences that he should, so he panics a little.

Where’s Jack? Where’s Emily? I should be able to feel them.

Cas makes his angel blade appear and he cuts himself loose. He cautiously gets to his feet and once he’s steady, he starts trying to find the exit. He finally feels wood, so he searches for a knob. He tries to open the door upon finding the knob. It’s locked, so he kicks it open. Light floods in and Cas has to cover his eyes for a moment so they can readjust.

Once he’s adjusted, he looks around. He realizes he’s still in the church, so he starts searching for Jack. He makes it to the sanctuary and sees the Tarhaimian holding Jack in its hand. It uses the other hand to use one of the talons to stab through Jack.

“Jack!”

Cas runs over and manages to get to Jack before he hits the ground. He throws his angel blade at the Tarhaimian and it lands between its three eyes. It squeals, spazzing out. Cas returns his attention to Jack, who he’s cradled in his arms like a small child.

“Hey, Dad,” Jack says. “That kinda hurt.”

Cas smiles, relieved, “Well I’m glad it only hurt a little.”

Cas looks at the wound and it’s already gone. Cas sighs.

“What?” Jack asks.

“You healed yourself. I’m just glad that you can already do that. I always got so worried when Dean or Sam got hurt…”

Jack cocks his head to the side, confused.

“Nevermind,” Cas says quickly. “We need to make sure that Emmy and Jess are alright.”

The two get up and head further into the church to try and find the other duo. They find them outside in the graveyard, covered in black goo. Emily’s holding a bat that’s covered in and dripping the same black goo, while Jess’s holding a machete, black goo and blood on it. Cas runs over to Jess to see if she’s injured. Right before he gets there, she falls backwards. Cas catches her and lets the machete hit the ground. He heals her and turns towards Jack, who went over to Emily.

“Aunt Emmy’s okay!” Jack calls out. “She’s got this scratch but she swears it’ll be gone before we get back to the motel!”

Cas nods, relieved for the second time that night. Jess opens her eyes, then screams and flails an arm out at Cas. He quickly moves his arm to catch her wrist before she can hit him in the face.

“Why do you all do that?” Cas asks.

“Reflex,” Emily answers.

Cas helps Jess stand upright and once she’s steady, everyone walks to the Impala. Then they head back to the motel and everyone is able to get cleaned up. They all settle down around the room except for Cas, who is standing by the front door, looking everyone over. His phone buzzes in his pocket, so he pulls it out to look at it. Ben texted him to ask how Jack was and Stella texted him earlier, the first time she’s texted him. He sends a quick text to Ben that Jack’s fine and currently eating cereal for dinner, then gets onto the text with Stella.

“Who are you texting?” Emily asks.

“I gave my number to Stella the last time that I saw her and she texted me while we were in the church,” Cas answers, pondering how to respond to her hello with a waving emoji.

“Who’s that?” Emily presses.

“That’s his friend,” Jack answers. “He ran into her while going to mail a package and they talked for like an hour or something. She got a kitten at some point between their last conversations.”

Cas looks up and Emily has a devious smile on her face.

“Don’t, Emmy,” Cas demands. “Whatever you’re thinking, don’t.”

Emily turns to Jess. “What’s the likelihood that you would talk to someone for an hour about your kitten unless you really liked them?”

Jess shrugs, “It’s not likely, but not impossible.”

Emily turns back to Cas.

“It’s not like that,” Cas says. “We’re friends. Anyways, we have a more important topic; why were you guys covered in black goo?”

“Turns out it had babies, and they’re fairly easy to kill with blunt force,” Emily says, avoiding eye contact with Cas.

“Why is there a man staring at your motel room?” Jess asks, pointing out the window with the curtains open.

Cas walks over and looks out. Crowley’s standing there with a stupid grin on his face and he waves to Cas when Cas comes into view.

“Stay in here,” Cas demands, then goes outside. “ Crowley .”

“Hold your horses, Cassie. I come in peace and bearing a plan that might work.”

How much did Shane Prigmore contribute to developing the show before he left?

I don't have a definitive answer for this. He was promoted to to VP of Creative Affairs on August 12, 2015, and the original series bible is dated November 24, 2015 (which just so happens to coincide with the movie's 5th anniversary -- possibly intentionally). You must note, though, that the bible did not come first, before production began. I mean, obviously, because there has to be something to put into the presentation. The concept art of Varian is Shane's design, for example. (Quirin might be, too, but I don't recognize his art style well enough to say for sure. That could be Bobby Pontillas' work.)

I was told by crew that the executive producer wanted to get his name removed from the opening credits (so that he'd get all the credit for its creation), but he's credited on IMDb as a writer, with development for TBEA and all the episodes (because of that title card credit).

If I had to wager a guess, he helped develop the basic story, and some of the earliest specific episodes before he was promoted. If I'm remembering what I was told correctly, it was his idea to have Arianna go to the Dark Kingdom with Rapunzel (like in Shiyoon Kim's concept art). I had crew complain to me that his continued presence on the project would have seen to her being developed more than she was. (ie, it was a bad thing he left, in that regard.)

But I do not know for sure how far into production the series was before he was no longer on the project.

Can we have some hc’s you have for your mc’s and their chosen RO from Disenchanted?! Your art is absolutely amazing, and your mc’s never miss!

Ahhhh yes!! I’m glad you like my mcs and art 🥰 tysm 💞🫶🏻

Isabelle (nephilim, Viktor route):

They will absolutely be Beauty and the Beast for Halloween

Viktors presence calms her down so she likes being around him whenever possible

When her anxiety gets going (which is often) he knows she needs more comfort and to be grounded, so he holds her hand.

They’re very touchy with each other which starts bc of Isabelle’s anxiety but at this point it’s just natural for them to always be touching in some way

If they hold hands for too long she’ll start playing with his

She doesn’t like talking to strangers so when someone comes up to talk suddenly she’ll look to Viktor and he knows to speak for her

She’ll wear his hoodies/sweaters whenever possible

When they’re sleeping together she likes to sleep on his chest and cover them both / wrap her wings around them

She likes to smooch the base of his horns to get him flustered 🤭

At some point Isabelle will start calling viks parents mom and dad

Leliana (siren, Lucien route):

They will absolutely be Ariel and Eric for Halloween (if that wasn’t obvious from my recent art 🤭)

Leliana will tell Lucien “I love you” all the time, because she never stopped and she wants him to know she always will

When the moment is right and she sees his back with no shirt on she’ll kiss the scar on his wing/back

Even tho it’s hard for nephilims with wings to swim, she’d definitely take him swimming in the shallow part/shore of the ocean. Lucien is always mesmerized by her siren form so she’ll splash him to get him to focus lol

Her legs get tired easily, especially when she wears heels. So when Lucien notices her getting too tired he’ll carry her bridal style wherever they need to go

They’ll take baths together and Leliana will like to wash Lucien’s hair and just cuddle for a few min before getting out

Leliana will mayhaps like to softly bite him with her sharp teeth during spicy times 🫣

Kamry (wraith, Avery route):

Less obvious than the others but her and Avery would be Sally and Jack for Halloween

Steals Avery’s clothes whenever possible

Whenever Avery is in a bad mood she’ll do the thing where you poke someone’s mouth corners to make them smile 🤭

I’ve thought the least about her route mainly bc I know the least about Avery so I don’t have many headcanons yet I’m sorry 😅

Elena (nephilim, Theodore route):

Also less obvious but they would be Rapunzel and Eugene for Halloween

They are the literal version of the angel x demon ship trope

Theo always knows how to make her smile. When she’s sad he’ll surprise tickle her to make her laugh

They’ll post so many cute couple pictures online, everyone is jealous

When he’s being too annoying she’ll grab his tail 🤭🤭

She likes to tell him “good boy” - in the bedroom and out just to see him get a little red 🤭

When she sees him getting really angry about to go full cambion she’ll hold his hand or wrap herself around his arm to calm him down

They’ll definitely fly together, being cute in the sky, wrapping their wings around each other 🥰

👏🏻 MATCHING PLUSHIES 👏🏻 specifically, Elena’s room is very pastel cute vibes, except her one dog plushie that’s red and black and very demon looking. And Theo has one dog plushie that’s white and very angel looking 💞 I like to imagine they have a few cute matching couples stuff, like pajamas and mugs 🥰

#I started to answer this earlier and got distracted I’m sorry #but here we go now uwu #ask #anon #mc: isabelle #with viktor 💞#mc: leliana #with lucien 💞#mc: kamry #with avery 💞#mc: elena #with theodore 💞#about my mcs

here's my ranking of some of the playline eugene dolls because the lack of top tier eugene dolls is so sick and twisted...

#1: disney store 2020

i really like this face mold and screening! the best eugene doll the bar is in hell. there's still something missing but i'm not going to be fussy. though they're significantly better than some, i'm not sure if i'm enjoying the clothes 100%. i like the pattern they used for his doublet to make it movie accurate, but i believe they could've gotten different fabrics for it and the belt. though we should thank god day and night that the details aren't printed on a paper like fabric. this is five stars for modern doll standards... there should be a classic doll like him. a shame that we've never seen this doll again... he gets a reluctant 10/10 from me.

#2: mattel (old)

hate hate hate hateee that face mold + screening, fucking nasty. though he looks like he's gonna scam the fuck out of you so accurate for flynn rider i guess. why is he so high then if you hate him so fucking much you might ask. it's the clothes and his accessories. i really like that his doublet is movie accurate and (fake) leather. his belt is very detailed!! so is his satchel. like the boots, though it's kinda hard to fuck up the boots so not giving him any points for his boots. my only gripe is that his pants' aren't very great. should've been velcro or snaps instead of that elastic.. he's destined to give justin biebs circa 2010 but it's ok. can be fixed if you have trust in your sewing. also don't like that he has elastic hips.. he has GOLDEN ELASTICS tho. monster high ghouls.. eat your hearts out. 8/10. solely for how much i like his doublet and belt.

#3: older disney store variants

that hair naurrrr they didn't even bother with like carving some details. they couldn't get my man's visage right. his goatee is evil. the mold itself is fine, it's just the screening i don't like. clothes are mid :/ i don't hate them but i don't particularly like them. i definitely know at least 3 men that look like these dolls. not great but serviceable. 7/10.

4: mattel (new)

THEEEE QUALITY DROP! CLAP FOR THE QUALITY DROP! the printed on details?? the painted on pants????? with a bad face mold & screening combo? JAILLLLLLLLLLLLL!! i like the hair, the belt with the pouch and the boots though. old mattel slays hard and this one def can't hold a candle to him... but i prefer this color palette i guess.. he looks marginally cuter than his stock image irl tho. 5.5/10

#5: simba toys

he's just a little boyyyy !! wandering around the cityyyyy :3 his proportions are... interesting. but he's cute enough so he can get away with it. his clothes are ok. at least it's not printed on details. i only want this doll because i want to display him with my simba toys rapunzel. she looks so fucked up (affectionate) i love her. this eugene gets a 5/10. though he's also a 10 if you get it you get it sorryyyyy

#6: disney collection/disney store tangled the series

he is show accurate, no doubt. but the show's art style doesn't always work for eugene and in the doll form.. he's just not it 💔 i like the clothes tho. he looks like a parrot (affectionate). i also have personal history with this doll. this set with rapunzel is my bleeding wound. 3/10!

#7: hasbro tangled the series

not enough words in the english language to describe my hatred for him -100/10... boooooo!!!! tomato tomato tomato

#the most important post ive ever made. 1 like and will do rapunzel #long post #eugene fitzherbert

Rapunzel Riddle AU... but make it the Barbie version.

We can still follow some idea of the original background from the Rapunzel Riddle Au I told you before, but this time Riddle did not have healing hair, instead he has that magical brush✨

In this one, the witch (Madam Roseheart) is actually not Riddle's mother (so she is not Madam Roseheart :V), instead she is actually Riddle's real mother's twin sister who loves her twin's husband. The three of them used to be best friends, but a triangle love was formed and the Witch thought the King (Riddle's father, who was a Prince then) propose his love to her Boa Hancock's style (she thought Luffy proposed to her, when he just said thank you to her). It lead to a heartbreak when he announced his engagement to her twin, and hatred when she found out they're expecting a child.

Not long after his birth, she stole Riddle away and locked him in her castle. Riddle meet Trey and Che'nya still and it goes similarly to the original Rapunzel Riddle Au. However this time he still not in a tower, but the magic barrier around their castle is updated.

Riddle have magic, a strong one, but he never know about it because his "mother" forbidden it. Telling him how it is dangerous and unfitting for a "stupid" boy like him. But you see, Trey and Che'nya both have magic, and they have been teaching Riddle some basic spells that they know behind her back.

Riddle here is used to do basic houseworks and studying. He only ever learn about medicine, potions, and laws through the books he found in the library. In this AU, his "mother" hate him more than anything, so she doesn't want him to be smart. However, she often left him alone in the castle, which make him has a lot of free time to wander around and find many secret places in the castle. Including the hidden library underneath his room. The only reason why he know basic houseworks and cooking was because his "mother" is too lazy to do it herself and Trey know how to basic cooking so he teach Riddle so they can eat properly.

However, the Witch did not leave him to be too bored and then bother her, so she taught him how to draw and often left him some cheap art supplies to spent his time. Riddle really adore those gifts, because to him, those are his mother's way of showing her love to him. It must be.

So he draw everyday. Every time he got a spare time (which is a lot), he will spend it with drawing and painting. His room now fulls of his drawings.

Anyway, I don't really have an idea how to continue it for the moment because I am at work. But I will continue it if you're interested.

Heck yeah! Inferiority complex! :'D

I had to re-see the Barbie Rapunzel movie and BOI was it so feverish... Like I had to take the thermometer out and check if I'm sick or not. That weasel is nightmare fuel...

I also stood way too much with my makeshift whiteboard just contemplating how I would tackle this, because in the movie itself some pretty important shit was nifty and at worst, made me question life choices.

Anyhow! On with this chaos :'3

First of all, congratulations to Mr Rosehearts for finding a decent woman to marry U-Ub

Second, poor Riddle having his Cinderella moment, but worse since it's all he knows since he was an infant, therefore he has no idea it's wrong. :'3

He's getting better at housework over the years, but it's such a big house that it also takes a lot of time. So much that after he's done with the housework, Riddle either goes to rest or paints a bit.

Hence why, he never has proper time to cut his hair, growing so long he was dragging it on the ground if he doesn't tie it.

He meet Che'nya and Trey as kids that wondered through the forest to play. They would come and help Riddle with the work, so he could finish early and play together more. After a few years, Riddle would always pick for the 2's birthday some flowers from the garden, as a sort of gift for them. He sometimes felt bad he couldn't offer more, but Trey and Che'nya looked very happy with the flowers, which was what mattered after all.

Time goes by and the 3 become very close friends. The 2 do try to indulge Riddle into going out to the city or at least wonder through the forest. He couldn't, as his 'mother' could always come earlier home and if she doesn't find him there, she's going to be very mad.

One day, the 3 are cleaning the attic, when they find a very pretty box. Being curious teens, the 3 open the box, discovering a very simple brush. It wasn't something that special, just a simple wooden brush. Being not interested in it, none of the 3 even take it out of the box, but Riddle thinks to present it to his mother, in case she would want another brush for her hair.

Of course, the woman doesn't want the brush and tells Riddle to keep it since it was a simple brush anyone could find in the market for what? 3 coins? Cheap at best.

So very excited of this 'gift', Riddle takes it to his room, really excited since his last brush was a bit old and he couldn't use it properly anymore.

Watch his surprise when he finally gets to touch the thing and it turns into a beautiful silver brush. Being mesmerised by it, Riddle just can't wait to play with it and discover what it could do.

He also discovers he could turn it into various things, opting for a small pretty brush he puts to hold his hair (he doesn't have many things to tie his hair, so he often uses the sticks methods and other improvisations).

Trey and Che'nya are also very hyped about this, saying that it was a wand. When Riddle asks about it, the 2 show their own wands, which were made out of actual wood, unlike Riddle's silver paintbrush.

Trey explains that mages use wands when young to better control their magic. It doesn't really matter what kind of wand you have, if you study magic for a few years, you could just as well go without it. It's more of a training tool, but also used for better accuracy by doctors and other functions where magic has to be extremely precise. Wands were basically tools through which one could make their spells be extremely precise as opposed to freehanding it. Kinda like an add-on: you don't need it, but if you have it, it's in your advantage.

Che'nya says that it's a very pretty wand, as they never saw one made out of silver up until now. Sure, there were wands who had metal casing made out of copper or iron, but those were for guards who needed them in combat as swords or other weapons.

Even so, Riddle saw it as an act of love from his mother. Surely she knew what it was and didn't outright say it. This had to be how she shows her love. No, it isn't, bby, she thought it was some cheap wood brush.

So with this, all excided, Che'nya and Trey also show up their wands, made out of wood. Che'nya's often took the form of very intricate pins, while Trey's as baking tools, or, if he's out, just a simple stick. Nothing that special.

Riddle gets introduced then to a better understanding of the magic concept. He read about it in his free time, but actually practicing it was just something he would fathom about. Thankfully, children in the kingdom were obligated to attend magic base courses, as to avoid potential accidents caused by uncontrolled magic. Of course, the kids who show to be magicless only have to attend a few baiscs so they would know how to act in case of such accidents, while the ones who do have magic, have to study more baiscs and practices and even go up until they are teens. And Che'nya with Trey had to attend those courses. Of course, being open class, the 2 saw some adults attending too, so it wouldn't be far fetched if Riddle got to attend at least 2 or 3 lessons. Just to polish a bit. Until then the 2 tried to teach Riddle how to do it, as they knew he couldn't just leave the place.

But Riddle was, unfortunately, a horrifyingly fast learner. So fast that it ended up going the other way around, with Riddle teaching the 2 tips on improving their casting.

So seeing that the 2 were not capable on handling the teaching, Trey and Che'nya suggest, even insist that Riddle should attend those open classes. He could learn so much more from them and his talent won't just go to waste. His mother always told him to never pursue such thing, because he was unfit for it and this is what prompted Riddle to decline and and all insistences on the matter.

One pelicular day, Riddle had his mother at home, him being done with serving the tea and cleaning, as such simply staying outside and drawing a bird he saw on a branch. Of course, drawing with his wand, now turned into a pen.

That's when a horse is heard and some rides comes by, scaring the bird in the process. Of course, Riddle was mad about it, since the rider could've came more quietly and not scare the subject of the drawing.

The rider presents himself as Floyd. And he was coming from the southeast, for a celebration in the kingdom, but he got lost in the forest. He also ran out of food for his horse, Vorpal, so that's why he was in a bit of a hurry.

Riddle does indulge for the man to wait a bit, until he grabs a carrot so the horse could eat something. He reassures that the 2 weren't far from their destination, but because he was not used to traveling at all, Riddle had to also get out a map.

This gains the attention of the mother, who demands to get the boy inside, to see if he deserves their help. As such, Floyd is welcomed in, to state his motives and how much would they have to welcome him here. If he's welcomed at all, that's it.

Of course, Floyd states again that he came from the southeast, going to the festival that the capital is throwing. He is obligated to attend as it's family business related and if it comes down for payment, he'd gladly pay for at least 1 night of rest. He didn't want to reach the city and wonder aimlessly without knowing from where he could even get some rest, let alone food.

The mother tho, notices something pelicular about Floyd and lets him stay in Riddle's room, saying that the redhead will sleep on the living room couch that night. As for the payment for the hospitality, Floyd pays in advance some quite heavy gold coins. He had to swap currency a few times, so he hoped that those were enough. The mother seems more than pleased and as such that was the arrangement for the night.

For the rest of the day, Riddle had to tend to the horse, but Floyd insisted that Vorpal was a feisty lil shit. This horse listened to very few people and sometimes even kicked over servants who tried to take care of it. Even Floyd had some difficulty sometimes. Riddle tho, insists that he could find a way around it.

And indeed, Vorpal seems fond of the redhead. Alas, the horse was feed and taken care of for the day.

Floyd is welcomed with nice food and a clean bed, but still, he didn't really show much happiness or showed displeasure in the things that were given to him. Mayhaps since he was in a hurry. Riddle was told to be polite and respect their guest's wishes, but so far, Floyd didn't ask for anything else, even refusing when it came to extras.

Floyd tho, also notices the silver brush. He recognised it as a wand, but didn't say anything while the mother was present. Only when she was gone did Floyd ask how come Riddle has a such a pretty wand if he's only a servant in the house.

Riddle, of course, corrects by saying that he's the son, not a servant, but Floyd always assumed he was the servant. There was bearly any physical resemblances and by how the mother ordered him around, one may draw the logical conclusion that Riddle was a servant.

Floyd also shows his own wand, which was made out of silver as well, saying that for underwater folks like him, usually there were used dead coral branches glued together with kelp slime. Silver wands were a sign of a rich family, even royalty, although most times royalty have wands casted in gold or precious stones. He also mentions that a brush wand can take things up a notch and even give life to the caster's imagination if their magic is strong enough.

This gives Riddle a bit to think about.

After Floyd leaves, quite early in the morning, he thanks formally to the mother for the hospitality, while for Riddle, he makes a whisper promise that he would bring him something nice from the city, as a proper token of gratitude for his work.

Again, alone, since Trey and Che'nya were at the open classes, Riddle finds himself daunting over Floyd's words.he saw his empty, unpainted wall from behind his closet, so he pushed it aside with a spell, before taking a deep breath. If it turned out to be a lie, he could always cover it with the closet back.

But it didn't. 2 strokes and already a full image was dragging on the wall, forming a vivid scenery from a field close to the city, a field Riddle often imagined as it was the field Trey and Che'nya told him they had classes. He never imagined it would turn out so different from his vision tho.

But that's also when a small butterfly flies out of the painting. Surprised, Riddle tries his hand on it and it passes through. But because of Floyd's leave, he still had work to do, so first was putting the closet back in it's initial place, covering the painting-now-portal and going to tend to his work before he would get nagged.

The next day, his mother was out all day to go in a far away city for some things. So Riddle decided it was the perfect day to finally go fully through that portal he accidentally created. Just for the occasion, he dressed in some nice clothes he had, which weren't something in any form fancy by normal standards.

Imagine Trey and Che'nya's surprised faces when they see their buddy on the field, minutes away before class would start. Riddle was just taking in how different and open the place was around him. He never went anywhere else, so this was a radical change of scenery.

Of course, the 2 again insist for Riddle to join him for the class. This time, knowing that the mother would be gone for at least 2 days, he accepts.

Of course, Riddle stands out in class too, for being pretty advanced, keeping pace just fine, even surpassing the class. The teacher, Trein, asked why he never saw him at lessons, since he was a true talent. He even suggested that Riddle should apply for the courses offered at the palace, which are courses offered only for the most advanced to become the special line of defense for the king and queen. Just the finest of mages in the whole kingdom are selected and even then, some don't end up making it through it all.

Riddle kindly refuses, saying that he's just visiting the place. He thanks for the kind words, but doesn't plan on applying for such thing.

Trey and Che'nya plan homicide of a certain hag in the bg

Riddle tho, was absolutely excited to spend all day outside. Tomorrow he would have to do immense work all day to catch up, but it was all worth it for him as he got to walk around, see how other people went about their days, the different shops and literally everything that was outside his familiar scenery. And Trey with Che'nya were absolutely egging him on, attending small festivities and dances of the people around. Just enjoying the festival atmosphere overall.

Riddle does ask if everyday is so colorful and fun and happy. Che'nya explains that only on festivals days the kingdom is celebrating like this. This results in asking what exactly are they celebrating?

Trey explains that it's the king's birthday in 2 days. Birthday which is made known with a ball where everyone can attend. The 2 friends did go in there almost every year, excusing the years when they were very small. It's a generous ball holded mostly in celebration of the kingdom rather than the king's birthday, so that's why the people around are so happy.

Of course, mesmerised by this, Riddle absolutely wants to go to the ball. But his mother would probably be at home on that time, so he was bummed up by this. He has read about balls in the fairytale books and all depicted it as some wonderful must-be event.

Surprisingly, the 3 run into Floyd, who was also wondering through the streets in exploration. He seemed happy to see the redhead without his 'master' around. Riddle does explain to Trey and Che'nya that Floyd was a guest they had for a night. Floyd himself confirms it that he was only a rider that crashed on for the night out oof need.

Riddle failed to notice how Trey and Che'nya were stiff for some reason.

Of course, as promised, Floyd did grab something for Riddle. He saw how long the redhead's hair was, as such he picked some pretty pins that resembled flowers, made out of silver, to go with the wand. Riddle didn't seem to know just how pricey these were. He wanted initially to refuse, saying that Floyd was too kind, but Floyd insists, even puts them in the redhead's hair with magic, so there won't be anymore protests.

For the rest of the day, Floyd joined in the group with exploring around. Sometimes being childish, but Riddle was too mesmerised by everything to even pay any mind to him. Trey and Che'nya both seemed to be a bit more stiff, Riddle assuming that it was a late hour and that he should get back.

Of course, people around did notice the redhead and the odd group. So when Riddle himself was asked by local people if it's a chance to see him at the ball, he promptly said that he didn't know. Many found it wierd, because even travelers who just stumbled upon this place also attended the ball.

Even so, Riddle had to return to his home. Of course, he was asked if at least tomorrow he will go for another lesson at least, but he refused, saying that he has to catch up with his missed jobs around the house.

When the mother returns, she finds the house cleaned up everything just as she wanted. Riddle himself presented in a poise manner the food and only did things like clockwork.

But his mother didn't notice something: Riddle seemed lost in thought.

At the evening, Riddle finally takes some courage and asks his mother about the upcoming ball. She seems taken aback by this, asking what ball, Riddle saying that Floyd told him that there was a ball where all people around were free to come and celebrate. This was a truth, since Floyd did explain to Riddle how the ball would go as well as the theme of it, things which Trey and Che'nya didn't provide in their explanations.

But the mother grows enraged, saying 'how come you, a stupid child, even have the entitlement to want this?'. As such, Riddle is taken aback, not really understanding how come this was stupid. Floyd, Trey and Che'nya made it seem like a wonderful event, made to bring happiness to everyone. Why was he not allowed to share some of that happiness too? Why did he have to be privated from a thing even the lowest of the low get to enjoy? Was he really that unworthy?

But, because Riddle kept insisting, she gives him one condition: He could go to the ball, if on the day of it, he cleans up every corner of the house before he goes there. Unfortunately, the day was today and already it was the middle of the time. It was an impossible task, which is why the mother knew that Riddle would finish it only after the ball would be done. And to just rub salt on the wound, she also demanded for him to iron and prepare her gown for special occasions, meaning she gets to go, but on time.

But the redhead seemed very confident that he could do it. That he could reach the ball on time. He was running around, wiping and cleaning everything as fast as possible. The gown was taken care of and left for the woman to dress in it, as Riddle was wiping the floors.

When the woman left for the ball, Riddle was cleaning the living room carpet. Once she did leave, the redhead tho switched to spells and magic, speeding up everything significantly. A lot of spells to clean in his stead as he was trying to come up with something for the ball.

So using his paintbrush on himself, Riddle realised he could change his clothes that way. He wanted something simple, but then again, he got inspired by the pretty princesses in sparkly gowns from his fairytale books that he had an outfit inspired by them.

So making sure to take off all his enchantments once the house was all squeaky clean in record time, Riddle passed through the portal he made and followed the people of the town towards the palace. Since it was a masked ball, Riddle didn't quite recognise anyone familiar, but he was way too happy to just be at such cheerful event overall. He was all happy by everything: the decorations, the music, the food, the people just dancing around.

One thing that was noticeable tho, were the pins in his hair. Familiar pins which Floyd recognised. He had to sit through a whole ass meeting with all the possible suitors he had for his hand, but he recognised those pins and immediately decided to dip the pretendants, in favor of taking the redhead up a dance.

Riddle, poor confused Riddle, didn't realise it was Floyd the man that asked for a dance. Even so, being all happy and excited over the ball, he took the offer, all dance saying just how beautiful it was this party and how happy everyone looked. He didn't realise that other people were also looking at them, more like at Floyd, as he was of royal blood after all.

Riddle does ask what is the name of the man, but Floyd denies it, saying that where's the fun if there isn't some effort to find it. He says he's here as he was initially promised to the heir of this kingdom, for a way to strengthen the relationship in between mers and humans. But the heir dissappeared when it was merely an infant. So as to still have a reassurance of an alliance and someone to lead the country in the future, Floyd was given and he needed a pretendant from this kingdom as to make a union. His brother, Jade, was up to lead his home kingdom, as he was here too, but with no fiancé yet.

Riddle still didn't make the connection, but got embarrassed aas he took the prince from the pretendants. Floyd counters that he was the one who invited him to the dance after all.

And Floyd being an absolute bastard at heart, he dances all night with the redhead, not letting anyone else get a turn. Jade sees this and finds it infinitely funny since his brother was doing this just to be petty and screw up with the rich bitches.

As such, when the clock strikes midnight, Riddle doesn't really know how late it was, but he saw a few hours after that people started to leave. Alarmed that his mother won't find him home, the redhead wants to run back home.

Floyd tho, insists for him to stay, saying that surely he would make one hell of a pretendant, that he wants to take him, not the others, but Riddle insists that he is no worthy to even attempt to try and get the prince's hand. He shouldn't and that was final.

With that, he leaves through the rose maze and uses his paintbrush to paint a quick escape.

Except that he was awaited at home, by the mother. She came in earlier than him. She knew he attended the ball and as such she was mad, insisting that Riddle was lying about finishing his jobs. The redhead says that he finished them, that the house was clean from top to bottom and that everything was done just as he promised, but the woman doesn't believe him, insisting that he must've skipped on a job.

As such, she makes the magic barrier over the tower, saying that until Riddle doesn't give the name of the one he danced with at the ball, the barrier won't be lifted. It was cursed so that anyone who lies won't be let in or out.

And poor Riddle doesn't know the name of the one he danced with, which again, he isn't believed for. The mother broke his wand, leaving him with the broken pieces on the floor to cry about how it was absolutely unfair. He didn't lie, yet he still wasn't believed.

He realised that mayhaps he should've taken on the prince's offer. That offer was too fairytale-esque to believe, but really Riddle wanted to think he had a chance.

Of course, to add salt on the wound, the witch decided that she would find the man that Riddle danced with. So she stole the redhead's silver pins and used an illusion spell to pose at him and try to return to the ball, as it was still in full swing. To assure Riddle won't try anything funny, she destroyed the portal painting too.

So while that plot is going at the ball, Riddle is trying to mend his wand. Trey and Che'nya told him that wands were mere tools and that magic could be casted without them. So Riddle hoped to use his own magic to mend it back together.

It doesn't work.

So in desperation, the redhead tries to get through the barrier, knowing that he didn't lie to his supposed mother.

He manages to pass through! :D

So using his hair and a hanger from the window, Riddle manages to get down. He does fall in a bush, but he was happy he manges to get out and off he was to warn the others about the plot against the prince.

Meanwhile, at the ball, it turns into chaos once the witch reveals her presence and starts attacking around. By the time Riddle reached the place, people were running away and guards were trying to protect the innocents, but mostly the king and queen.

Of course, Riddle was thinking on how he could turn the tables in his favor, coming up with the idea of distracting the witch by his mere presence alone.

So he steps up, saying that the barrier didn't work against him because he was no liar. The witch, of course, charges up at him, but Riddle was faster to dodge.

That couldn't be said about his hair tho, as it was cut as a result of a stray spell.

During this fight, it was revealed the truth about the king and the 'affairs' he had. Man really only thought of the witch as just a good friend and sister in law, nothing more. Man really just didn't feel the same, but because she was blinded by the idea of becoming a queen she thought that the feelings of the man were towards her.

Of course, when the whole secret is blown up, Riddle is in an absolute shock. It all came crashing down for him. So in rage, he decides to do a better plan: use the fact that the witch lied to him, against her.

Thankfully, Floyd willingly gives his wand to the redhead, as he turns it in a paintbrush, using it to make a portal to the tower in which he pushes the witch inside. Once that is done, the said painting is destroyed, assuring that now, the witch cannot leave the tower as the barrier prevents anyone who lied to pass through.

Of course, the aftermath was awkward. Finding out you are a prince and not only that, but that also you were promised to some royalty you danced at the ball with, which turns out to be the kind guy you kept meeting around. Not to mention almost everything you knew about yourself was a complete lie.

The broken silver wand does prove it, as it was a wand that was supposed to be inherited throughout the royal bloodline. It used to be the king's wand, so Riddle felt absolutely ashamed that he was the reason it ended up broken. The king does reassure that it's not his fault and mainly that they had a lot to catch up to.

Also Trey and Che'nya are invited to the palace, a bit salty that they can't still put in action their homicide plan(they even got Floyd on the board with it, but alas it was in vain now)

And that would be the end I guess :v

WISH appears to be tracking well. Pre-sales beating those of ENCANTO and STRANGE WORLD. The former, released as Delta was proving to be a problem, and the latter an neglected film.

But this is promising. Not that the old outdated box office model matters in the long run, but I want to see a Disney-released animated movie take this W for once. Pixar's ELEMENTAL merely eked by and was deemed successful by the company, so why not end the centennial year with another animated success? And from Walt Disney Animation Studios no less?

"No marketing" indeed. I heard that latest trailer racked up over 66m hits or something?

I guess WISH does have the juice. Maybe! While very-online people jeer at the way the villain song sounds, or complain about how much they can't stand the talking goat, or the art style, or just about everything else... If this thing opens very well, it'll just show who the marketing for these films has always been for... Not you, and not me.

Flashback to summer 2010... I had seen the teaser for TANGLED, the movie that arguably got this whole ball rolling. The first Disney Animation movie to truly make some big cash in the post-Michael Eisner/David Stainton era (as in, post-CHICKEN LITTLE). MEET THE ROBINSONS lost money, BOLT didn't really cut it, and THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG barely eked out. TANGLED became the studio's second highest-earning movie, unadjusted, behind THE LION KING.

I remember. I was 17 1/2 when I saw the teaser roll before TOY STORY 3... And I remember thinking that it looked pretty... Well... BAD! "She's been grounded for like... Ever!" What was this? Disney's embarrassingly belated answer to SHREK? A cynical and hip fairy tale adaptation? Never mind that I was already miffed at the sexist title change that had been reported earlier. The poster seemed to ram it all home, too, an image of Rapunzel and Flynn/Eugene looking like they had an attitude... I was afraid it'd be a step back from the progress that was made with ROBINSONS, BOLT, and FROG... A lot of people online at the time seemed to echo similar sentiments...

The proper trailer debuted around September. I also wasn't impressed.

Then I had taken a look at the Japanese trailer. Okay, this looks pretty good! Possibly great!

The ending to this story is very predictable. I ended up really liking TANGLED.

And as bad as I thought those trailers were, TANGLED opened pretty well and had fantastic legs during the holiday season of 2010. Audiences liked those trailers and TV spots and promo materials.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat...

For FROZEN. "What is this? TANGLED on Ice? TANGLED meets ICE AGE??" People on twitter **hated** that Olaf and Sven ice lake antics teaser... But when I saw it play before MONSTERS UNIVERSITY that summer, the packed auditorium howled with laughter! FROZEN went on to become one of the highest grossing animated movies of all-time.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat...

For ZOOTOPIA. "What is this? CHICKEN LITTLE?" "This looks like a DreamWorks movie!" ZOOTOPIA made a billion worldwide, rare for an original movie like that.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat...

For RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET. "This looks like Disney's EMOJI MOVIE!" "All this product placement!" RALPH BREAKS outgrossed the original and made half a billion.

You get my drift? The marketing materials are made for your average joe, not us. Getting them to give a cartoon the time of the day is the real challenge, and that's who Disney goes for. Sometimes they're quite successful at it: Every CG film they released from TANGLED to FROZEN II, 2010 to 2019, made a lot of money theatrically each time out! Sometimes they're not. BOLT didn't get folks interested in fall 2008, and STRANGE WORLD's few trailers and TV spots last autumn just didn't appeal to almost anybody. Throw in COVID's effects on everything, how Disney+ was the perfect storm for families tight on money and not willing to gamble on a probably shit theatrical experience, etc....

And if WISH opens pretty good, it'll show that they - the marketing department - did their job right for once. And without the actors - such as Chris Pine - to help promote the movie, at that.

But tracking is usually funky for animated movies, so it's hard to say how WISH will open. But in the cutthroat world of box office, a model that's still going today for some strange reason, it's gotta make a real impression in its first 3 days, 5 days because this is a pre-Thanksgiving release.

Anyways, I want to see a WDAS movie "break even" per this old-ass model, for once. We haven't seen a film of theirs do that since FROZEN II, four years ago. Which is also a Chris Buck-directed movie, also a Jennifer Lee-written movie.

Now to hope ELIO from Pixar, after ELEMENTAL barely making it through, does good this coming spring.

I have to disagree on this.

As songs, sure. They're both really good songs (Though "Ready as I'll ever be" feels really cluttered with the amount of characters audibly involved) and I like them about as much as each other (despite not having watched Tangled and thus missing a load of context here) and both songs bring across the motivation of their respective villains well enough (actually, on that "Ready as I'll ever be" does seem to do a little better, implying Varian is doing this due to wanting to prove his ways are the better ones and/or spite for being painted as the bad guy/revenge while "This Day Aria" paints Chrysalis as a cardcarrying villain without hinting at any further motivation than "fuck these ponys and Cadance in particular")

Specifically as villain songs though?

Varian just has to share his with too many heroic characters that don't even offer that much contrast to his single verse. The song honestly seems more about the sliding scale of confidence of the characters (again, missing a lot of context but to me it seems that Rapunzel is very sure she is going to achieve her goal that she 100% believes in, the other girl has doubts about her ability to fulfill the shoes of the wounded captain character and while Varian is bend on fulfilling his goal to the point of becoming the villain he is is very aware that it isn't a good thing to strife for and he really shouldn't) and there is far too much triumph on the heroes parts in the song. Varian's part has the exact same energy as the parts of the heroes (spoken dialog aside).

Chrysalis on the other hand shares her song with her foil. That alone elevates her song as it highlights her as being the villain by contrasting her callus demeanor towards not just "her" groom but everyone else involved in the wedding with Cadance's love and care towards Shining Armor. Cadance's only triumph (jumping/flying/gliding over a chasm) in the song leads to Chrysalis basically winning (the wedding itself starting while Cadance is still trapped in the caverns), Cadance's parts are softer in tone and language than Chrysalis bombastic boasting about her success.

Then there's the stakes established.

Just going by the lyrics, I have no fucking what Varian's trying to do beyond some vague notions of revenge.

Chrysalis's lyrics point to her being uncaring if not cruel so you can tell that at the very least she is going to abuse Shining Armor in some way so even without context you can tell that is a Bad Thing.

And again, "Ready as I'll ever be" has the same energy throughout, putting all of it's characters on somewhat equal footing.

"This Day Aria" gives Chrysalis, the villain that has pretty much won, a lot more pomp and triumph compared to Cadance's more subdued and generally desperate parts.

Finally, there's the visuals. The differing art styles obviously are factors and again, I lack a lot of context for Tangled, but ...

Varian is in some kind of cluttered lab with the only thing visibly giving him any sort of advantage being the queen being chained to the ground, him working on something big and vaguely mechanical and having some dude encased in amber(?)

The captain at worst seems to have indigestion. I genuinely can't tell what's wrong with him. I assume he got poisoned or something? That's definetely not helped by him sitting up and confidently saying "she is". Soldier girl's confident entrance and glinting sword also do little to make the troops shown in a disadvantegous position.

The only times Rapunzel's expression shifts to anything but confidently determined is when she fumbles catching the pan and when she looks back at the castle.

I don't know if the series just has an aversion to go off model or show its character unkempt but the whole thing just makes me think that Varian is lashing out for being ignored while everyone else is very sure they can make him back down/reconsider his options.

We end on everyone saying "I'm ready" with only Varian shown saying "as I'll ever be" though they are all shown to be about equally determined in their goals. I do admit that Varian gets a pretty ominious closing shot but other than that ...

Now, MLP on the other ... hoof, I suppose ...

We zoom into what is very clearly some form of palace and Chrysalis herself starts out in full wedding attire, putting on the final touches. She makes some manequins bow to her before proudly gloating about fooling everyone. The last thing we see is her actuall eyes glowing in a black void.

When we cut to Cadance she is running desperately and visibly dissheveled and framed inside a gem. Once we actually see her where she is, she dejectedly sits down as if she reached a dead end. She is then shown reflected in the faceted wall of the cavern as she laments her situation, again visibly desperate.

We cut back to Chrysalis as she struts around the room and violently kicks a table away from her. She mockingly shows off her acting skills by flirting somewhat with a manequin, dramatically hanging off of it. After ripping apart its head, she very proudly declares to not love the groom and looks straight at the camera as she declares that she still wants ownership of him.

Back to Cadance who is frantically running through the caverns with another pony she apparently explains her situation to. When they come across a minecart and some tracks the other pony grimaces at them but Cadance still dashes ahead, futilely trying to push it to move. The other pony helps and they rush down the tracks before they are catapulted out of the minecart at the end of the tracks. Cadance manages her single moment of triumph by preventing both of them from falling into the chasm and

We cut to the wedding. We are greeted with trumpets and everyone in attendance looking at Chrysalis. She strolls towards "her" groom whose eyes are shown eerily similar to Chrysalis' own, even his sclera being shown with an unnatural green tint to drive home the point. As Chrysalis smugly stands beside him we get a split screen, showing Cadance landing on a ledge before we see the dead end she has run into. She crumbles in despair as we are also shown Chrysalis' triumph and the vacant stare of the groom. The last thing we see is Chrysalis illuminated dramatically in front of a black void as she giggles in triumph.

Overall, Chrysalis is shown to have all the power while Varian just isn't. Honestly, the visuals of "Ready as I'll ever be" could just as easily be a montage of heroes gearing up to take on a villain (shackeled queen aside) (heck, the dude in amber could be there because Varian is trying to free him, it's genuinely just the queen) in their own ways while "This Day Aria"'s make it very clear who the villain is (despite her looking like the hero to boot!)

Hello! For the continued part of the blurb in which Harry and YN get casted together; this is the reminder :))

Also here’s a thought about it:

Maybe since like Harry met Olivia on DWD, when Tangled started they're like broken up and so so to make it more realistic (It was more of a suggestion but just do you, your readers would love it either way) :))

Have a great day!!!

yes we will definitely continue this!! okay let’s go;

First day nerves were always the worst.

Whether it was first day of school, first day of a new job, first day at university or, in your case, first day on set, you always got a really bad case of the nervous butterflies. It was just unnerving having to meet new people and try and fit into the way everything worked around here. You were a very social person when you came out of your shell, but you could be a hard one to crack if you weren’t with the right people. Luckily for you this set definitely had the right people. After briefly meeting him on the red carpet for Don’t Worry Darling and then having him text you afterwards, you have to say that now working with Harry Styles seemed like a dream. His music and his charisma shaped him into someone you really liked and really wanted to know more about. He was your all time crush and unfortunately, for you, he’d probably gathered that by now - what with your blushing interview over him.

The weather was beautiful and the buzz on set was amazing. Everyone was rushing around and trying to busy themselves until filming started at 8am. You had just been in hair and makeup and were on your way to set now. The movie wasn’t being filmed in its’ complete order, so the first scene that you were filming was where Flynn climbs up the tower and meets Rapunzel for the first time. Where Harry meets you.

You couldn’t quite believe you were actually here. You were a Disney princess, and your favourite one at that. The purple dress was everything you’d imagined and you felt like a dreamy cloud in it. Your flip flops and robe covered most of your outfit though, to keep you warm until you were needed on set. Instead of going straight inside the filming building, you sat outside on a nearby bench hoping to calm your nerves.

To keep your mind preoccupied you went over and over your lines in your head, cursing yourself when you messed up over something so small. Your fingers picked away at each other, damaging the nail-art that had only recently been put on.

“You’re going to cost the makeup department a fortune if you keep doing that.” You didn’t need to look up to know that it was Harry who was approaching you, but you did anyways. He looked beautiful. His hair was styled the same way as Flynn Ryders and you could see the outlines of his costume underneath the coat he was wearing.

“Oh, sorry.” You laughed nervously, putting your head back down to stop him from catching your blush.

“Hey no need for apologises. Just wanted to make sure you were okay.” He spoke honestly and you felt the warmth of his words spread over your body, like butter on toast.

“Just really nervous.” You admitted shyly.

“Can I…” He pointed towards the bench space next to you.

“‘Course, yes.” You patted the space encouragingly and watched him pull the trousers up from his thighs to sit more comfortably. God, those thighs. You cleared your throat to detach the dirty thoughts from the back of your mind.

It was quiet until he spoke again. “What’s your favourite Disney movie?”

“What?” You asked confused and Harry repeated the question as calmly as he did last time. You expected him to start giving you words of advice, not asking you your favourite Disney movie. “Oh, um, Tangled of course.”

“You know you don’t just have to say that because you’re the lead actress in the movie.” He nudged you with his shoulder, making you laugh as you swayed away and then back to him.

“Yeah I know.”

“Pity.”

“Why?”

“Just would’ve taken you for more of an avid Lion King fan.” He joked, his dimpled smile boasting its’ way onto his cheeky face.

“I am, actually. I just, there’s something about Rapunzel that draws me to her. I don’t know whether it’s her childhood was similar to mine—”

“Wait you were abducted by a weirdly attractive evil woman who claims to be your— wait! So you’re a princess?” Before you can answer he knelt down before you, capturing your hands in his - neither of your missing the tingles of passion when your skin touched skin - and holding them tightly, whilst he began speaking again, “M’lady, forgive me for being so simple.”

“Harry! What are you doing, y’fool?” You laughed at him, trying to get him to sit back next to you as you’d drawn the attention from a few crew members.

“I’m grovelling at the feet of my future Queen.” He said so matter-of-factly you almost, nearly, truly believed him. Chuffing actor.

“Get up you oaf!” And he did with a little more persuasion. “What I meant was that my childhood was quite isolated and lonely - I didn’t have many friends at all.” You spoke from the heart, not expecting Harry’s eyebrows to furrow with confusion or for him to look so sad.

“I’m sorry.” You knew he meant it.

“At least I have Flo, though, now.” You smiled at the thought of your amazing best friend, whom also happened to be Harry’s most recent co-star. Their performances in Don’t Worry Darling were second to none and you were so proud of Flo for delivering such an awe inspiring delivery to her character Alice.

“And me. Don’t forget me.”

“I could never.” You turned to look at him, unprepared to find him staring back at you with hearts in his eyes. You blushed and had to look away, but you rested the side of your head on his shoulder out of natural instinct. It felt right and it felt comforting. “Thank you, though Harry.”

“Always.” He rested his head back against yours, both of you just watching the busy people prepare for your first scene. The nerves had gone though, now, and you were feeling more at peace with yourself - and with him. “Oh and Y/N?”

“Yeah?”

“I think that you’re drawn to Rapunzel, because she embodies your courage, kindness, beauty and compassion.” Your heart swelled at his words. You never thought someone could think of you this way, let alone Harry. You pushed your head tighter against his shoulder, wanting him to wordlessly know that you were really grateful for him.

“Smooth, Harry!” He laughed with you, “How long have you been rehearsing that?”

“Too many other lines to remember to be learning them ones too. That, Y/N, was all ad-lib.” And your heart swooned a little more again. He was just so perfect and he made you feel safe. There wasn’t a good enough phrase or word in the English dictionary to justify how good of a person he was or how much he meant to you.

“You’re too good.”

“Too good to maybe ask you out for a drink after today?” You brought your head away from his shoulder in shock from what he just asked. Harry, the Harry Styles, was asking you, Y/N L/N, out for a drink. What?

“No, I think i’ll let you take me out for a drink.” You smiled at him, admiration sitting heavily in your eyes that there was no way he could miss it.

“Yeah?” His eyes glinted back at yours.

“Only if you stop with the compliments, i’m so bad for accepting them.”

“Hmm, no can do.” You rolled your eyes and reached over to take his hand in yours and he instantly linked his fingers with yours. It felt right. Warm. Safe.

“Fine, but don’t be alarmed if I just jump you for being too nice to me or something.” Your words came out faster than your brain could process and your eyes widened once you realised what you’d just said to him. You’d just threatened to jump Harry Styles. Fuck sake. And now he wad laughing, at you or with you you didn’t know.

“Alright, but you don’t be alarmed if I do nothing to stop you.”

Now you understood why he didn’t need to ask what was wrong or if you were okay, his presence was comforting enough to make your nerves dissipate and focus on the only thing that now mattered; him.

the demon bros+ undateables showing their love

thought about this for 5 min then had to write it out so enjoy

lucifer

first off you notice he treats you differently

and by differently i mean like you’re his favorite child sibling

you get away with anything??? and he’s softer with you than with the others (which is canon)

then you see that?? he keeps buying you stuff you said you wanted when he was present

and you’re ofc impressed

but you’re more impressed by how open he’s around you

he’ll leave most of his walls down around you

which means you’ll get to experience unfiltered lucifer

he’ll laugh around you more, make dumb dad jokes, nap with his head in your lap, complain drunkenly about his work and bros, give you sloppy cheeks and forehead kisses

you find it rly cute though

if you’re in the human world he’ll 100% take this chance to send you beautifully written letters asking you how you are and leaving some verses that reminded him of you on the back like a 19th century vampire

“dear mc, how is your life? mine is filled with woe and unease since i do not have the light of my life around anymore...anyway here’s a poem about being horny and alone by a 18th century romantic author hope to see you soon, xoxo lucifer”

you try to respond in the same way and send him memes on the back instead of poetry (or real poetry depends on your mood)

mammon

protective of you 100% will throw hands with anyone that even glances weirdly your way

but also wants to show you off? like look at this human!!! this is MY human!!!

gives you random thoughtful gifts that reminded him of you

wants to be around you 24/7 so he invites you to all the events that he thinks you’ll like

you wanna party? perfect. you wanna go on a weird ghost stories tour around the city? cool. you wanna waltz in one of those old people parties? he’s already reserved two tickets. you just wanna lay around and nap? he’s already on your lap.

it doesn’t matter if you’re in a romantic relationship or not this man WILL serenade you outside your window

rapunzel style with an acoustic guitar or with a boombox like a rebel 80s kid

anyway here’s toxic by britney spears babe this is for YOU

levi

considers you his bff ofc

but also at first he’s still really awkward around you and doesn’t really know what to do for you and feels bad thinking only you do things for him

until you reassure him you enjoy just being around him so it’s fine

he blushes and starts inviting you more to his room to game/ watch stuff

at some point he starts buying two tickets to all concerts he goes to and invites you along

but also? he asks you what you’re into and starts marathoning your favorite animes/ movies/ series so he can talk with you abt them

you feel really moved that he’d do that for you??? like??? bruh...

your relationship is basically friends respecting each other and wanting to know each other the best through their passions even if it means getting into some weird shit

it’s rly wholesome tho

if you’re romantically involved he’ll totally do roleplay as your favourite character and you do the same for him and it’s really cute

also imagine: artistic collabs. you make fanart together??? you can program games together???? you do cosplay together??? the possibilities...

satan

he’ll hate to be compared to his dad brother but he does show how much he trusts you by showing his unguarded side too

when he first talked about lucifer without the filter of his nice guy persona you were pretty shocked

like he was really going at it

but then you realize? he’s just like that when he’s comfortable

and it’s not all mean spirited, he just has,,, a strong personality and a lot of opinions about stuff (which you sometimes share with him)

but you also found out it’s really fun to gossip with satan

since he knows all the juicy gossip from his multitude of ties (he’s sharing the title of gossip queen with asmo that’s why they get along so well tbh)

also if you even find a teacher you hate he’ll tell you all their embarrassing moments to make you feel better

he also recommends you books and poems and sends you quotes that made him think about you

so you sure as heck don’t need to buy books while you’re in the devildom bc he’ll buy you an entire library

asmo

compliments you without comparing you to himself which is the highest compliment he can give

like mammon he’s more into the showing everyone his favorite human around while also protecting them

he’ll take you to his parties and gatherings as a guest of honor, he’ll make you meet all kinds of people and open up opportunities for you

he’ll be the one that pampers you

you’d think lucifer is the sugar daddy of the family but nope it’s asmo

he’ll buy you cute clothes, shoes, beauty products everything that he saw and imagined would look bomb on you

if you’re not into clothes he’ll buy you art supplies, books, anything you want but he’ll still probably buy you at least some clothes he thinks are cute

if you’re romantically involved,,,, he’ll buy other toys for you as well which you can try together wink wink

beel

cooks for you

no questions asked when it’s his turn to cook he’ll think about what YOU would like to eat first before making something

which is??? really touching coming from beel

and also means sometimes he’ll make the same dish three weeks in a row and annoy the others while you just get excited bc ??? you get to eat your favourite dish??? again and again????

thank you beel you truly know how to touch someone’s insides

also opens up to you and talks to you about his fears and thoughts

expect to get 4 am msgs from beel if he had a nightmare

which would end up in you coming to cuddle him (and belphie also joins sometimes)

which tbh is that even a thing you can complain about?

belphie

is more baby less murder when you’re around

naps on your lap, naps on your shoulder, naps with you anywhere

but also let’s you nap on HIM

besides being soft around you he actually opens up to you too

and talks to you about his traumas and issues

which he has in common with his twin what can you do

so you have weekly cuddle parties with him and beel where you talk about shit and actually make them resolve their issues instead of just,,, ignoring them

also if you’re into each other you probably tease each other and flirt really shamelessly in public while the others cringe and or blush at your language

are you a cowboy? because i want you to ride me all night

simeon

writes you fancy letters with poetry like lucifer, but his ink is scented and his envelopes contain pressed flowers more often than not

if you’re together you even do letter sexting if you’re into it

creates characters based on you in his stories (which you don’t believe even if levi points out you that the two of you are kinda similar)

asks you to spend more and more time with him and luke

invites you to picnics, reads to you while your head is in his lap, cooks you snacks

if you’re a theatre kid too,,, you do musical love confessions too,,, sometimes by just reciting the lyrics of really popular musical theatre songs in a death panned voice

cough a heart full of love from les mis but read like poetry through the fence of the house of lamentation cough

asks you cryptic shit hannibal style like “tell me mc what does it mean to want to be consumed whole by another? is it a desire to become something bigger than yourself or is it related to our need to become one with our loved one like some cultures pointed out before?”

you’re either really into his cryptid talk or just roll your eyes and smooch him

diavolo

invites you around to his castle all the time

sometimes he even pulls some weird shenanigans just to make you spend more time with him

expect tea parties with him luci and barbatos in no particular combination

gives you compliments 24/7 even in public

remember how he treats lucifer? he’s that for you too but he’s learned from the lucifer experience to focus on complimenting you as a person more than how you look

if you’re into pda he’ll touch you all the time

if you ever wanted a gomez - morticia romance, here’s your goth big titty himbo that’s way too full of love

if you’re lovers expect to be pampered, i feel like? he doesn’t buy a lot of gifts and such because he’s probably tired of material things but he will make time in his busy schedule for you and spend a lot of time with you

which means more to him than gifts

(we will buy you anything you ask though)

barbatos

actually talks with you about stuff outside rad, the demon bros and diavolo

also invites you to alone time tea or wine time

where you drink and gossip

if satan and asmo are the crowned queens of gossip barbatos is the king of gossip but he doesn’t share his knowledge to most people so nobody knows what he knows

but he knows,,,, a lot

and not only that he knows a lot about people nowadays,,, but imagine the things he knows about like historical figures and such,,,

so prepare for story time with barbatos where he talks about how oscar wilde was almost summoned by drunk inccubi during a party once, or how diavolo cried when he was a kid because he sent a letter to caravaggio asking him to paint his portrait and he said no

also if you get drunk together expect really energetic talkative barbatos destroying DESTROYING everyone (except diavolo ofc)

“lucifer please i once saw you crying because you thought diavolo was ignoring you when you actually forgot to press the send button to your messages ”

if you’re romantically involved diavolo will always be first in his hear but that just means you’ll have to invite diavolo along on your dates which just means you’ve got a new lover and a new bff

solomon

he invites you on all kinds of wacky adventures

you visit witches, go to weird magical forest parties or orgies if you want, you go travelling the mountains for rare herbs

it’s like you’re faust and he’s mephisto haha the irony and he’s showing you another side of the world you never knew

ofc the others know about all this but??? they thought it’s normal and didn’t even consider you know nothing about it

but solomon knows what it was like to be just a human

and since he likes you he empathizes with your situation

he also make you meet all kinds of people

since he has 72 contracts and hundreds of years of doing wack stuff he must know some interesting people

and now his friends are your friends

i feel like romantic solomon would be just him?? but less shady with you especially since now you understand him better

but also he’ll probably bring you weird shit from his alone expeditions

did you ever want the tears of a mermaid? a carnivorous plant that feeds on emotions? a crying portrait? no? well too bad because now you have a room full of weird items

...that you love and treasure thank you very much

Heya! It's me again, may I request a male matchup for Disney (except for Descendants), here's my newest version of my info Thank you so much!

𝗦𝗘𝗫𝗨𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬/𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗡𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗦: Biromantic Pansexual and Genderfluid; He/They (though I'm biologically woman irl)

𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘: 21 years old, 5'1.5", Southeast Asian (Filipino). Chubby with messy shoulder length brunette hair, chocolate brown eyes, and a small beauty mark on my forehead. Feminine Tomboy or Soft Vintage (like Malia Tate's style from Teen Wolf) but loves to wear Korean makeup style

𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬: Libra-Scorpio cusp, Slytherin with patronous spirit of Hummingbird, INFJ, my enneagram is 4w5 and Neutral Good. I may have a slight introverted tendencies and awkward/anxious nature, I describe myself as fiery, swears like a sailor, confident, jokester, and, passionate. Religious, super talkative, sometimes hyper (because of excitement), giggly (I always laugh/snort for stupid reasons), nerdy, also sweet and nice though I can be aloof, intimidating, and scary when I get so angry. I tend to become really fiesty, stands boldly on what I believe (claiming myself as a realist though some of my views doesn't makes sense), unbothered to be myself, stubborn, young-at-heart, clumsy unfortunate and inattentive. Would don't give af towards the people that I hate, sarcasam and savagery is my main language. But on the other side, I overthink a lot and cry over small things many times which I sound like a drama queen, and a perfectionist that provokes even more, yet recognizes a soft spot for dumb jokes, cheesy pickup lines and prefer people with a good sense of humour who see myself as equal. Chill in academics, but very competitive that manages to the top even for my dreams---I'm very dedicated on what I want for my life, and I display modesty and gracefulness towards some people that deserves respect. One notable feature about her is her multi-potentiality due to being naturally gifted in artistic fields (this includes singing).

Hello dear 💖, thanks for your request.

For disney I ship you with:

Flynn Ryder⚔️

He would first meet you when you were heading on your way to repunzle.

He would be stealing the tiara when you were also an assassin trying to hide from the knights.

You bumped into him and you both ran while introducing yourselves.

Flynn was witty and sarcastic but he wasn't horrible.

He would joke with you and seem flirty.

You met rapunzel along with Flynn, you took her out of town to see the outside.

Rapunzle had feelings for Flynn but he felt more for you.

Flynn and you had your first kiss when he was in the boat with you.

Flynn protected you from the guards and mother gothel.

You were wounded but luckily rapunzle healed you.

Flynn and you wedded when everyone was saved. You both married and lived in the forest to which your child has his eyes and hair (and smolder).

Anyways that's all I have for now:

Ta Ta ✨️

How did you not like the Tangled series?! It was amazing! The new characters were interesting, the development of existing characters and their relationships was great (especially Rapunzel and Eugene, the series made me ship them so much more), and the songs were epic! It wasn't perfect of course, there were definitely things that could've been better, but you can say that about anything.

I’m sorry I hate it so much 😭 it’s personal

I didn’t actually started by hating it. The movie had some issues but I liked it enough to continue with the series. I liked the series ok enough, and then the episode with the queens twin sister came out and I just stopped watching. I looked back at everything that had happened so far in the series and I just realized it wasn’t the tangled I knew and loved

My main issue is Rapunzel. Rapunzel is my fave fictional character of all time. So why is she the worst character in her own tv show? 😭 she annoys tf out of me, I had to stop watching, I couldn’t let them ruin my baby like that in front of me. When Cassandra was sick and she kept bugging her cause she can’t hear a no! RAPUNZEL HAS HEARD NOS ALL HER LIFE, SHES NOT DUMB SHE CAN TAKE A HINT. Or when she went to great lengths to make the candy man like her???? WHY WHY WHY. They made her so incredibly ooc, annoying, dumb, sometimes even mean ugh no

Besides Rapunzel, I just felt like the series had too many cartoon tropes that I hate.

I hate how the episode about the queen’s twin has the exact same plot as the one with maximus’ horse rival, but the outcomes are completely different.

I hate how sometimes cartoons have this huge disconnect between what the authors intended and what the audience takes it as. For example, some actions were supposed to be bad for with no malice but they just came across as cruel to me. Something that shouldn’t be a big deal is to me and something that is a big deal wasnt to me. Idk how to explain but I remember a lot of discourse at the time when the episode where Rapunzel applies to the games came out. A lot of people had many different opinions about Cassandra’s actions, it they were forgivable or just mean. To me, looking back at what I remember, she was a complete bitch and Rapunzel forgave her way too quickly like it was no big deal. I hate how miserable they made arianna feel in the twins episode but then made her feel like she was unreasonably jealous. Or how they made Maximus go through the same thing, made him seem unreasonably jealous except this time he was right. Idk if I’m making sense, but stuff like that. There’s just disconnect on what they want me to take away and what I actually take away u know

I stopped early on the series but I know about the whole "eugene is a prince" and "cass is gothel’s daughter" and I’m glad I left cause holy shit it’s worse than the most amateur fanfic. I don’t care about context WHY IS EUGENE A PRINCE???? NO STOP IT! And eugene was my fave in the show so whyyyyyyyy make him have that backstory……….

I should have known they’d pull shit like this the moment they found an excuse to bring her long hair back but I was blind cause I love her blonde hair so much I didn’t see the writings on the wall

To be fair, the first thing my sister said when she looked at cass was "that’s gothels daughter" and holy shit I did not listen. Cass was a character that I sometimes liked, sometimes didn’t. But looking back she just comes across as a"strong female character" with no much substance to contrast with the annoying dumb girly Rapunzel

I hate what they did to the king. He wouldn’t act like that. I’m sorry but one of Disney’s best scenes of all time is the scene where he cries in front of his wife before they release the lantern. That man is not the same man I saw on the show. "But a 30 sec scene of him crying is not enough to make u say that" IT IS! IT IS!!!! He would rather die than hurt Rapunzel I know it. So why is he an asshole in the show????

The art style is ok but i honestly doesn’t remind me of rapunzel’s art style. I know it would be hard to replicate it but it just doesn’t. And the colors……… I knoooooow it’s a cartoon and the target audience is even younger than the one from the movie but gosh I’m blind. Why is her hair so yellow it looks like it’s shinning 24\7 and why is her dress such an ugly purple when her dress used to be such a beautiful lilac?????????????

I don’t remember much of the songs but they were good enough I think. Alan Mencken deserves better jobs tho. Bring him back to the movies I swear to god

I know the world of tangled, specially the kingdom of corona, werent specially developed. Like, the world building was good enough but not deep, u know. So I feel like it’s easy as fans to fill the gaps and imagine lore for ourselves. What they did on the show is complete different from the lore I imagined but I also feel like some aspects and details don’t go AT ALL with the small world building they DID DO in the movie. The detail I always nitpick on is Rapunzel’s wig in the movie. It just took me out. The world of tangled just doesn’t seem to go hand in hand with huge white French wigs or dresses for that matter, I’m sorry but never in my life did I imagine it would. This is just a nitpick I suppose but I felt these little disconnects through out the series.

All and all, it shits on everything I love about the movie

All I need is the movie, short and illustrated books. The series is not canon to me

This was just a quick messy rant I wrote rn on the spot from memory, cause I’m very passionate about the movie but very hateful for the series
