[hazbin-reimagined]

I am going to make Charlie Morningstar fat. Pear-shaped, even. To visually communicate her soft and bubbly personality.

I also plan to base her more off of Leslie Knope from Parks and Rec, bc to me Charlie is just the Disney Princess version of Leslie. Charlie is very politician-coded in the show and I think if she were approached similarly to how the writers for Parks and Rec approached Leslie, she would be more engaging.

I also think Husk and Ron Swanson have a lot of potential similarities, and I want to explore them more (like how they’re both grumpy old men who hate the system and have very set opinions on things. Also theyre both doom-preppers. Husk has low-key doom prepper energy so I’m going to make him a doom-prepper, at least a little.)

Back to Charlie, I want her to have more focus on her mom as an inspiring figure to her, similarly to how Leslie Knope looks up to her own array of powerful women in politics and history. Because Lilith being missing/gone is so integral to the plot of season 2, it would bear saying that there should be more buildup of Lilith as a person besides just the exposition in episode 1; to set up expectations to either be met, or thwarted. Imagine how much more impactful it would be if we heard Charlie say all these empowering things about her mother, only for her mother to be completely different in reality. This would also show how Charlie looks at her mother through rose-tinted glasses, just as she looks at everything else in hell. The realization that her mother is not everything she believed her to be would shatter her, making for great character conflict.

Sometimes I think about the fact that there was a whole episode of parks and rec where Ben and Leslie had to miss his birthday party so she could filibuster the city council meeting to protect voting rights in Pawnee

And instead of doing what most shows would do and making the central conflict a whole thing about Ben being mad about having to miss his party and Leslie having to make it up to him etc - he literally never even thinks to question her on it and is in complete agreement with her that protecting voting rights is more important than a bday party and has to be their top priority no matter how inconvenient it is for them (plus he also spends most of the filibuster drooling over how hot and generally awesome his wife is filibustering in her roller skates)

It’s just so refreshing to see a show’s main couple be so supportive of each other and on the same page rather than creating pointless conflicts where they’re both irrationally mad at each other over nothing - its not like they never have disagreements or anything but it’s always Leslie and Ben against the world on this show and I’ll always love that

leo's 7k celebration!

I lost my father when I was 10, I don't have any brothers, and Ken Burns never wrote me back. So, I'm not getting married without you there to walk me down the aisle.
