#in this ep I was louise

[laz-kay]

Rudy: Louise, when’s your birthday? Louise: Why? So you can look up my natal chart? So you can figure out my weaknesses? So you can destroy me? Rudy: …So I know when to wish you a happy birthday.

BOB’S BURGERS Season 13 Episode 9 "Listen, I think I know your mom well enough to know that she would be okay with you not coming till now. Because she'd want you to be busy living your life. With your three beautiful children and your fun, hot, wife Linda. And she'd be so proud of you. I mean, look at what you've done; with the restauraunt, with this family -"

Inktober Day 10 - Fortune

Because everyone should have dressed up to raid open houses on Kingshead Island (at least Gene). So this just the Belchers dressed up fancy as if they were a rich restaurant family.

Linda’s outfit is based on that Mother’s Day ep. Bob’s is sort of mix up of some of his slightly more formal wear. Tina is wearing her symphony outfit as if it fit. Louise is wearing her catering get up plus her bolo tie and a suit jacket. And Gene’s outfit is based on how Linda imagined him dressed up for Mother’s Day plus some scalloped edges here and there. I was going to draw them all from her little day dream but Tina and Louise’s outfit were just longer version of their casual wear.

Begging on my hands and knees for the writers to make an episode for Gene like Manic Pixie Crap Show except instead of about Louise wondering why she doesn’t particularly like/connect to femininity, it’s Gene wondering why he doesn’t particularly like/connect to masculinity.

What situation would cause this to occur? I have no clue, but I want it to happen so bad 😭 You can blame @br1ghtestlight for making me unwell about this idea, because she came up with it and made it live rent-free in my head.

It would be even better if Louise comforted him about this and reminded him of her struggles with gender roles too. That would be such a cute sibling bonding moment for them.

if you’ve ever seen bob burgers to an extent PLEASE go watch s13 ep22 -> Amelia it’s a gorgeously structured story featuring louise and her facing a condescending male peer, the annoying attitude that ��men are better than women’, her tackling that, relationships between mothers and daughters, how that interacts with the story of amelia earhart, and it’s just SO beautiful. esp if u HC louise w adhd like I do, because over the course of the show it’s evident that she’s brilliant and clever but rarely cares about academics. however bc she wants to prove this male chauvinistic asshole WRONG and get an A she focuses up!! so to see her be shown SO like smart and capable? esp the bit where she actively answers questions in class but he keeps cutting in and talking over her or talking out of turn… and then you have her school project that’s planned and executed so brilliantly, where her SIBLINGS help out bc like that’s so cute and the belcher siblings are so cute and supportive… i just love everything about it. it’s the show at its best

Hey there! I’m here to ask what are some of your wilder headcanons? Like maybe this has no basis in canon (or just a shred of a basis) but you still believe it wholeheartedly? For any fandom you want!

Omg thank you for the ask!

Bob's Burgers

A random HC I have that has almost no basis is that even though Louise wants to take over the family business or even work for it and more than likely does in the future, she also wants to be something else. Something that can help people directly, maybe a lawyer or private detective or something. I remember in A Few 'Gurt Men (my fav ep) the retired judge said that Louise had a knack for figuring out the truth and that she dug deep to help an innocent man, and I think that kinda stuck with her. Especially when we see her help other characters during the series even if she doesn't gain anything, she even helps when she has something to lose.

Another HC I have about Louise is that she draws when she's frustrated, especially after a fight when she didn't get to say what she wanted to voice her concerns/argument. I think drawing kinda lets her decompress and relax.

I think Louise doesn't think about her own safety sometimes which results in her ending up in dangerous situations 🤷‍♀️ I feel like there's more examples but the only one I can think of is from season 13 ep 15, The Show (and Tell) Must Go On.

One last HC. Louise definitely has a motorcycle when she's older and she's def speeds. She's probably also crashed and broke an arm but pfffttt she's fine. Near death experiences that have her lay awake at night and question her mortality? She's already had them! And Tina only locks up Louise's Motorcycle in her garage for two months, no big deal. Louise attempts to get it back three times, also no big deal!

LOOK AT THEM

[blindinghope]

if you have been fighting back tears for the last week DO NOT watch the emotional bobs burgers episodes or YOU WILL SOB!!!!!

[t4tboblin]

the thing is i do love plight before christmas and amelia and they do get me emotional but it feels like not for the reasons people love those episodes. like yeah louise’s presentation in amelia is beautiful but im far more enamored with linda’s role in the episode-how she encourages louise when she gets overwhelmed and puts aside her own wants to support her, how she clearly inspires louise. and in plight before christmas YES its sweet that louise shared a genuine poem about loving her family but what really gets me every time is tina. her insistence that someone needs to be there for louise, and then leaving her own performance to be that person who shows up for her? THAT is the the crowning moment in that episode, not louise’s poem. the point to me feels like… its tina, being a wonderful, thoughtful big sister. thats the part of the episode that makes me cry

I love donating blood. I tried to donate a kidney once, too, but the kidney donation intake interviewer laughed once she learned which medications I'm on and told me I'd need both.
