Everytime I watch an episode directed by mgg I want to court order therapy for that man

[twilight-zoned-out]

Some things about Allan:

He’s the only one who reacts to the narrator

He’s the only doll (besides the Weird House) who isn’t swayed in some way by Ken’s takeover

He also declares himself as “Ken's buddy" (making canon his official box description) which makes his inability to be swayed more interesting

He has bendable legs (probably the only reason he tries to jump the fence instead of going around like everyone else)

He easily decked a half-dozen construction Kens and could probably singlehandedly win the Ken fight

He seems to know more about the real world than most Barbies

He knows what NSYNC is 

He knows about other Allan copies living in the real world (I’m trying to figure out if he made this up to convince the humans he can live in the real world, but even if he did, how does he know what NSYNC is???)

There are no other Allan models

I am aware this is very likely NOT what was intended for crossovers but my brain latched onto it like a particularly stubborn crocodile so this is what I've got. This is my second and last post for Prompt Week. I burnt too many braincells drawings all of these LOL

And the screenshots I referenced are listed below, if anyone's curious ^u^

could you draw Dr. Flug pregnant, without the bag over his head?

no I'm sorry, if you mean my bagless Flug design; it's a little too obviously based on a real human being (GLP/GermanLetsPlay, who uses a very similar design of his persona for merch, it's absolutely his trademark. my german followers always recognize him immediately.) and I won't do that without consent. it's my full intention for him to look exactly like Manu bc I thought it would be funny. if I design a different bagless Flug maybe in the future I can do that, but I probably won't.

I dislike the idea of Flug's face being revealed and dread it. I don't want to know. the secret is the appeal!! I'm slightly objectum

this is all I can offer you! I hope you still like it🫡

some excited chatting between these two dorks🩷

I'll even throw a random headcanon at you: I like to think Flug and Black Hat are both autistic, but Flug is the talkative, expressive type and Black Hat the one that is almost always mute and monotone. yapper x listener ig haha

"A Jester can mock, and the King cannot fight

For the gift of free thought is the jester's one right."

A sweet golden prince who lived up in the sky,

Listened to his families' terrible fights,

The ceiling would rumble, the tile would shake,

The throne room was fragile, and soon it would break.

He'd attempt to speak, but it never went right,

His father would rage, and he'd lose every fight,

As decades passed by, it soon became clear,

The King saw his son as a monster to fear.

The Prince quickly followed every command,

Only to be trapped by his father's cruel hand,

Years of destruction with no end in sight,

This war would not end with a large act of might.

And so the Prince stopped fighting fire with fire,

And instead he pulled out his golden stringed lyre,

Since he had no respect, he would leave the King's cage,

And swap out the throne room for a shining stage.

He taunted with wit and he giggled with guile,

And even his sorrow he shared with a smile,

His father's gaze lessened, his temper was tame,

As his once "Golden Prince" treated life like a game.

The centuries passed and the mirth never ceased,

The sun never set on the first son of Greece,

He danced for his siblings and bit down his pain,

Since each peal of laughter meant there'd be less rain.

There's only one role for which there are no rules,

So who is the jester, and who is the fool?

[pomiji]

Right. Yeah. Why did I think I was good enough?

[beigetiger]

Honestly part of the appeal in TGD's family dynamic for me is the fact that nobody reeeally wanted this to happen in the first place, and yet they all found a way to make it work.

We don't know what Mud and Ken's dynamic was like before Mel and Breadhead were a thing, but I imagine that there was a definite strain on their relationship after the two kids showed up. I don't think Ken ever really wanted to be a dad, and I don't think Mud wanted to be an uncle. Breadhead was literally created by sheer accident and it may turn out to be that Mel was forcibly given to Ken as a baby by Temperance. There are pretty much no kids in the Gaslight District, and the few that do have them (golems, etc) probably go through a hell of a time trying to raise them because of the lack of resources.

But in spite of that, it's really clear that they tried their best, and they honestly did pretty good with what they had. But I'd like to highlight one thing: their difference in parenting style.

Obviously they're going to have different ways of approaching Mel, since Ken knows she's human and Mud does not. But even without that, Mud and Ken are written to be pretty opposite people. Ken mostly has his life actually together, but a mental disability makes him blow up at his family members sometimes, even if he does his best to curb it. Mud, on the other hand, absolutely does not have his life together but is also very lax and doesn't lose control of his emotions. They're written and designed to be opposites, so of course their parenting styles oppose each other as well.

And this leads to Mel and Breadhead. Mel really feels the brunt of all of this, because she's the smallest person in her family and is the only one who can die, so she's not bringing that much to the table. She wants to, though. Anything that will get her dad to say he's proud of her like he says it to her brother. She pulls elaborate tricks, makes genius plans, all to try and impress him, but each and every time there's something that keeps him from expressing pride in her. The first time is the time with Jack, where she got out, car-hopped over to him, and then survived a car crash and helped cement him. It's all very impressive, but Ken is hung up on the fact that she didn't follow the orders he gave her. She makes an elaborate plan to steal the angel egg and it all goes perfectly, but Ken's too busy thinking about Temperance to care. He gets upset that she broke his promise to him like he didn't break his first. It's a double standard, and one that he doesn't even fully realize he has.

This is all in stark contrast to how Mud treats her. He repeatedly expresses that Mel should be allowed to do more within the group. He explicitly compliments the skills she showed when they were hunting Jack. When she goes to them with her angel egg scheme, he votes in favour of doing it. And he doesn't mind her breaking promised occasionally, it's all just a part of changing plans as they go along. While Ken criticizes every move that Mel makes, Mud is out here constantly affirming his niece, giving her pretty much all the positive attention she gets from her guardians. He's also somewhat rubbed off on her too, we see in the pilot that she mimics the coin tricks he does well enough to impress even him. I suspect she's his preferred of the two kids, the two have a lot in common.

And, of course, there's Breadhead. He's much lower needs than his sister, he's the biggest and the strongest of his family, and he makes his dad so proud with everything he does. An absolute golden boy. But while he may be Ken's favourite, the consequences of needing so little is that people don't really check up on him. If we check the card that says The Smiling Dead during the pilot, we can see that Breadhead is there, carrying all of them on his back. This is affirmed in the pilot too, when he's really the one who pulls them all out of heaven safely. But another detail on the card is that there are chains around his arms. He's the parentified child, the perfect one. He needs to help take care of his sister, help run the restaurant, kill people for his dad, the list goes on and on. But even though his dad may love him more, he pays more attention to his sister and Breadhead's emotional and mental state is often left in the dust.

Breadhead and Mel both have something that the other would want, but in spite of that, they don't hold it against each other. It's a rough world and they both understand the importance of sticking together, and it seems that they both use each other's strengths for the benefit of the whole family. Their guardians have had it rough, but they're making it work out anyways.

Because really, the family is about two sets of siblings and the similarities and differences between them. Mel is just like Mud and Breadhead is like Ken, and the younger ones can see the possible future that awaits their relationship in their dad and uncle and try their best to avoid that. Mud and Ken have to work with each other to try and raise the kids well. It is a rough, cruel world out there, and the family that was born from sweat and blood and pain is determined to stick together through all of it. Because hey, what is family for.

Restarted cm nd now I’m mad all over again WHY WONT ANYONE LISTEN TO THIS MANS FUN INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT PINOCCHIO

[kiquebi]

Self indulgent uu thoughts!!!

I think on the way to the farlands, Wifies should pass by a jungle biome and a parrot should just plop on his head. Its the cyan one that looks exactly like Parrot’s skin, so post breakup Wifies is feeling weirdly sentimental.

This bird gets tamed first seed and is like the most attention seeking ahh parrot ever. Dog like even. Irl parrots are huge and I think this mf should be big enough to sit on Wifies lap.

Wifies should name him Fairy bc I’m salty that Parrot got to keep his allay and Wifies and Dean couldn’t keep their pets.

So when Parrot goes to meet the farmers, he just sees Wifies there with Fairy on his lap. Fairy should fuckin hate Parrot on sight. Especially because the moment Wifies sees him, his attention goes to immediately Parrot instead. I think Parrot would also hate Fairy bc this bird just hate glared at him with its feathers all fluffed up. He does the same damn thing unconsciously too.

The entire meeting these two birds are just sizing each other up. Ken and Wato thinks it’s hilarious and Wifies is too busy making sad dog faces at Parrot to notice.

I think Ken would legit be on better terms with Fairy than Parrot himself.

Nic was in her feelings again and shared two songs that are VERY telling in a story on IG "Birds of a Feather" ( which she knows the fans associate with her and Luke) and a super sexy one called "Talk Talk" by Charli xcx. They may be even more obvious than the ones in August! Oh and the RING is back on too! I'm loving the content today! 🥰💍

And did anyone else notice N was wearing a Barbie tshirt in her Tatcha ad?? 👀👀

And JD OFFICIALLY sunk the Jakola ship today RIP.

What are everyone else's thoughts about the obvious Lukola crumbs today?? And what do we think about N's caption in her post??

Draken's American version has 3 candies one for himself, one for Mikey and the heart one for Emma ♡

Ohhh that's so cute! Emma actually doesn't have an American design/ wasn't with them for these levels but Draken would definitely be thoughtful enough to bring her back one. And he tells Mikey he isn't allowed his until they get back too, which makes him pout a lot.

[edit; plot twist from a convo with a friend: Flug suddenly has super strength bc of his paternal/maternal(?) instinct to protect his baby. which is kinda canon bc he did develop crazy power in the 6th episode when he felt like 505 was threatened.]
