About your "jews in animation" post, I'm Israeli and as a kid I always assumed all characters in cartoons to be Jewish and ignored the implications of Christmas episodes

Funny story, when I was really young and just moved to America I didn't really understand what Christianity was. I knew vaguely that other religions existed but I didn't understand why they used Jewish terms

In America the tv me and my brother used was pretty old so we didn't have any of the big channels which meant we watched a lot of old educational shows

One of those was VeggieTales

And for the longest time

I thought VeggieTales was a Jewish show

pls explain the Gravity Falls+PnF au to me. I'm guessing PnF are heading to Gravity Falls, but from there I'm not really sure what'd happen. you're au's usually have a plot and I genuinely have no idea how'd you plot this

Yay! I can talk about the AU!

This is only the bare-bones of it, because I'm still working out technical bumps, but it's basically a substitution AU, where the PnF characters would be taking on the roles and plots from Gravity Falls. I can give a run down on who'll be doing what:

Phineas, Ferb and Candace will share the Dipper and Mabel roles between them, with traits, events and roles split between the three. Their premise is also the same--siblings, sent to stay with a great-uncle in Gravity Falls.

Buford and Baljeet will gain 40+ years of age and take on the Stan and Ford roles respectively, although they would only be best friends, rather than twins--although I am seriously considering making them stepbrothers, for the sake of narrative parallels--Gravity Falls IS big on narrative parallels. (I haven't yet ironed all the bumps out, but I will. Oh yes, I will

Isabella won't take the place of any specific character, but rather, she'd play a similar role that Fiddleford plays in Relativity AU's--i.e. she'd be an extra friend/love interest kid character who hangs out nigh-constantly with the core siblings

Soos and Wendy will be consolidated into one character--the very chill, very helpful, very nice, and very Cool Teenager(TM) shack handyman, who is none other than Jeremy Johnson

Bill Cipher will still be Bill Cipher. This might surprise you.

Dr. Doofenshmirtz will be, surprisingly, in the Old Man McGucket role.

The Gideon role will naturally be taken by Little Suzy Johnson

Vanessa is the trickiest to explain in this AU. So she is Doof's daughter, but considering that he's gone Off His Rocker a little bit she's been taken in by her Uncle Roger (who is filling the Preston Northwest role), and spends a good portion of her story trying to avoid association with her father. She'll fill the Pacifica niche, although she won't be as mean, more just dismissive.

Stacy will be the Candy/Grenda figure.

Carl is Thompson. No notes.

Feel free to ask more, clarifying questions, should you wish to poke the hyperfixation bear

Can we get some Vivian and Isabella loving on each other together? I wanna see our girls be all lovey dovey and cheesy!! >W<

Vivian brushing Isa’s hair! This is all I can muster

[queenofglassbeliever]

Am I weird if I think it would be funny other vampire clans just looked at Bella and "Oh, I want this one, she will be my daughter if Carlisle doesn't adopt her" and they kind of battle to adopt her?

That should've been the Breaking Dawn conflict. 😆 That would have been so funny.

No one can convince me that "she will be my daughter if Carlisle doesn't adopt her" wasn't going through Carmen's and Eleazar's mind when they met Bella.

was reminded of the costumes from the phineas and ferb live show today. to say i'm utterly obsessed would be an understatement i need to sit down with the person who thought this was a good idea so so so so so so so bad

What would YOUR ocs do in a modern au? :)

okay it's been a month and a half since you asked this, but I do, in fact, have an excellent answer.

Last month when asked this question in a letter from my lovely pen pal (and I'll share much of the text from that letter here) I immediately pictured all of the gang working at Mc Donald's. Maristella Arrington: The Local McDonald's Owner's Daughter is the only modern AU I will accept at the present moment.

Maristella gets promoted to manager, Which bothers Victor, who started at the same time as her and is still styck working the drive thru. Verity and Conroy are highly efficient work besties. Adrian used to work at their McDonald's but he no-call, no-show quit one day. So did his sister. Turns out, his sister got food poisoning after they found out their dad owns the Burger King across the Street.

Maristella ends up at the Burger King once because she's craving the chicken fries, which they do not have at McDonald's, and she finds out her former coworkers are working there now...

2 or 4 for the oc thing

I did both!

Somehow after all this time, I didn’t think to have Kammie and Isa interact. I had Frightclaw interact with Isa and I barely know that dragon character but somehow never Kammie.

I was going to do a sparkly dress because I thought Isabella would like it but I felt like it was too many sparkles. If she is to ever have a sparkly dress/outfit, it is definitely never with some AI disturbance overlay and it’ll never be in blue. However I do have one in red in my drafts, but of course this was still before Isa’s spots were figured out.

Anyways long story short, @ilovebeinaturtle / @knuxthefangirl owns Kammie and I have Isa in a dress in a color she won’t wear for a long time.

Yes the little toy is based off this cute little baby

are there any books you'd recommend for Isabelle of Angouleme?

Hi! I’m really not an expert on Isabella of Angouleme so I'm probably not the best person to ask for recommendations for her. Here are some I've heard of, though I haven't read all of them:

"Isabella of Angouleme: John's Jezebel" by Nicholas Vincent (King John: New Interpretations). I haven't read it myself but I've heard good things!

“Maternal Abandonment and Surrogate Caregivers: Isabella of Angoulême and Her Children by King John” by Louise J. Wilkinson (Virtuous or Villainess? The Image of the Royal Mother from the Early Medieval to the Early Modern Era). It focuses more-so on Isabella's tenure as queen, the period shortly after John's death, and her decision to leave England. Despite what the title may imply, it's sympathetic to Isabella and analyzes her situation in detail.

“Co-Operation, Co-Rulership and Competition: Queenship in the Angevin Domains 1135-1230” by Gabrielle Storey, her PHD thesis which collectively focuses on Isabella of Angouleme along with Empress Matilda, Eleanor of Aquitaine, and Berengaria of Navarre. You can read/download it here, it's an excellent piece for all four women.

Sally Spong has written/is writing:

Isabella of Angouleme: The Vanished Queen (Norman to Early Plantagenet Consorts). You can see her conclusion here. It's nuanced and sympathetic, though not without its issues and pre-conceived notions.

Isabella of Gloucester and Isabella of Angouleme: Female Lordship, Queenship, Power, and Authority 1189-1220 (PHD thesis University of East Anglia).

“Isabelle d’Angouleme, By the Grace of God, Queen” by William Chester Jordan. You can read it online here, though I will say that it's ... very very questionable, accepting the sensational claims of lot of unreliable sources (including the idea of John abducting Isabella in a fit of uncontrollable infatuation) entirely at face-value.

“The Marriage and Coronation of Isabelle of Angouleme” by H.G. Richardson, available here on JSTOR.

Isabella has also been the subject of two complete French biographies till date:

"Isabelle d’Angoulême, reine d’Angleterre" (Aquitaine: 1998) by Sophie Fougere.

"Isabelle d’Angoulême, comtesse-reine et son temps (1186-1246)" [Actes du colloque tenu à Lusignan, 8 au 10 novembre 1996] by Gabriel Biancotto, Robert Favreau and Piotr Skubiszewski.

There are also a few blog posts about her (here and here) which may help if you want a brief overview of her life, though they can get a little sensationalistic sometimes.

Hope this helps! If anyone knows any others, please feel free to add on!

How I long for the Casper eliminates J.T. with his bare hands...

Casper and his family never get that satisfaction 👍

But you know who does? Their loved ones. Primarily (Stinkie) Silvester’s lady friends Isabella & Vivian

[bookishjules]

I've been listening to the prophecy & it's kinda giving me sizzy vibes. thoughts? 👀

the song in question

*sits down. stands up. sits down again* fuck you're so right... i was so focused on the percy jackson of it all that i didn't even notice the sizzy angst..

it's izzy. it's izzy after simon sacrifices his immortality and izzy after he returns and breaks up with her. cursed like eve got bitten. and is it punishment for letting her heart fall into someone else's hands? she can't lose hope even if she wanted to but she can't deny the pain and desperation of having him close but so far. she doesn't care who he his so long as he's simon. and could she ever move on? she sealed her fate up in that bottle she thought held him. what a fabled fool's move. and now something has to change. make her fall out of love or make him fall back in. she's too unstable to let it go on like this.

[babyblu3s-dolly]

how would you feel if someone based their persona around Sunny/Wallace Wallflower from your omori arabesque au?

-🐟🐟

I wouldn't mind! Feel free to!
