#lou head cannon

[emerald-head2000]

I officially head cannon that Lou does this to any student who sleeps through his class.

[leouusaurxoxo]

Also, I'd like to add Shen Qingqiu getting his arm ripped out in the punishment world the system created after he failed his mission. I don't exactly remember the wording or the chapter, or context for that matter, but how would you not have trauma after having your flesh ripped and made into a human stick?? I feel like mxtx just glosses this part over. How can you marry the person, who tortured you, even if it wasn't actually real? The pain was, so, so real, then of course it IS real to some extent. It would make more sense if he saw Binghmei and then have a literal panic attack hit him.

I found a picture explaining the situation more clearly for context, here you go.

Head cannon that every MXTX novel has an Unreliable Narrator thing going on.

Svsss? Everyone agrees. Tgcf? Xie Lian was stabbed a hundred times (and that wasn't even the most painful experience he had to go through) but none of his monologues include look the world abandoned me in this past 800 something years and I'm still recovering but hey!

Instead it's just a scrap collector gege and his dumpster diving young master boyfriend. Going on blind dates. (book arcs but given how calm they are, it might as well be a date. But a blind one because both of them are denying it for their own reasons.)

I'm 100% sure this is the same case for Mdzs even though I haven't read the novel, I did watch and have enough contributing spoilers to excuse my procrastination.

Okay, i've decided that i'm just gonna drop/dump some lore on Vermin, so if you're interested, read below! It's really long!

...o.0.O.0.o...

Personality:

Like canon-Leo's head-cannons, Vermin hides his true emotions behind a smile, but their differences are in the execution. Vermin's smiles are more wicked, more cruel, and he find amusement in making people fear him, having experience in getting people to listen to him by intimidating them.

He pretends to be indifferent to how the brothers act around him, but always keeps an eye out for any signs that they aren't as they say they are. Donnie specifically.

Big emotions are a no-no, so he hides them behind a passive face, empty of anything he's feeling so he can convince those he's talking with that he feels nothing, that he is unaffected by any stressors and anxiety. If anything get's too overwhelming, he retreats to a hidden corner to wait it out and tries not to remember how Draxum treated him when he let his emotions get the better of him.

Because he was raise without certain privileges, he gets extremely giddy around new experiences, such as sampling new foods and trying out video games and skateboarding. It's probably the only time he lets his guard down because he's so entranced by whatever is happening he forgets that he's not supposed to be showing emotion.

...o.0.O.0.o...

Relationships:

Raphael:

With Raph, Vermin just doesn't know how to deal with him. An injury brings Vermin to the lair and Raph is the one who heals him, but Vermin in uncertain whether or not he can trust someone with such obvious strength he can easily use to harm Vermin. He doesn't understand why Raph is so kind nervous when he could dominate his enemies.

Michelangelo:

Mikey is the one Vermin accepts the easiest other than April. Mikey has a way to handle Vermin without being too invasive and without threatening the slider in any way shape or form and eventually shows Vermin that there is kindness that is not expected to be repaid. He also helps Vermin lean into his chaotic mindset without it becoming harmful to others, like teaching him how to prank the other brothers.

And of course, Vermin loves trying his food, so Mikey basically tempts the slider like he might a feral cat.

Donatello:

Donnie is the one Vermin has the hardest time accepting. He's convinced he can easily beat the soft-shell in a fight, but once he discovers that Donnie is a scientist, he becomes wary of him, skittish and uncomfortable whenever he's around. He knows that there are other ways to get someone to obey than simply fighting.

It takes Donnie being patient and showing him that he means no harm over time that earns his trust. The softshell just has to break through the notion that all scientist are evil and only seek to destroy that which is closest to them. Donnie even goes as far as to promise to never let anything happen to Vermin ever again.

April O'Neil:

The first one to show kindness when Vermin leaves Draxum's lab. She shows the slider a side of society that he was being deprived of when he was with Draxum, helping him see that there is a place for everyone, that things don't need to hurt to be beneficial. She pretty much forcefully adopts him as her little brother and is even protective of him when he interacts with her other brothers.

Baron Draxum:

Was raised by Draxum. More info in the timeline.

...o.0.O.0.o...

Timeline:

Content Warnings: blood and injury, references to child abuse, loss of limb, needles, non-consensual drug use (kind of), non-consensual experimentation and surgery.

It gets dark, so be cautious of the warnings!

Age 0-4:

In the beginning, Lou Jitsu, later known as Splinter, only rescues three of the turtles, who eventually go by the name Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo. The remaining turtle, identified by his red markings, is picked up by Baron Draxum before the lab explodes, destroying his life work. The only remaining bit of his research is the tiny creature small enough in the palm of his hand.

Quick to find a place to stay and recover, the Baron begins working to piece together his research using his subject. He starts a book, scribbling down anything worth noting and refraining from any larger tests besides bloodwork and skin-scraping until the subject is larger, better able to withstand any more intrusive tests.

He begins raising the creature, claiming it as his own.

Age 5-8:

Called by the title Red, the slider reaches acceptable cognizance to begin training by the age of five. He is small, just below the Baron's knee, but he is intelligent enough to understand complex problem solving and language. Weapons training is less successful than desired, but that could be related to the subject's weaker limbs and child-like nature.

Baron Draxum is relentless in his education, always prepared to deliver swift punishment should Red be unable to comply with his desires. Red hates the punishment, often times covered in bruises from the extra training or with a headache from spending his nights in 'The Room,' but he is just as stubborn as his guardian, if not more so. He always seeks to make his boss proud, ignoring the voice that always tells him he's not strong enough, not good enough. Baron Draxum always has a reason for saying things like that, so Red knows he just has to try harder.

He's not exactly sure what a human is, but the Baron is convinced that he needs to kill them all.

Every other week, the Baron brings Red to another room where he 'collects samples.' Red doesn't know what they're for, but he's seen the elder gather some of his freshly peeled chutes and teeth when they fall off, always writing in that journal with a little turtle drawn on the front.

One night, when he's just turned eight, Baron Draxum leaves in a hurry. He's gone for hours, leaving Red to his own devices and wondering if maybe the yokai had finally got bored of him, wondering if he just left him behind because he couldn't satisfy him. Red tries not to listen to the little voice in his head that says maybe that's a good thing, maybe it's better if he stays gone.

Red doesn't see him until the next day, well into the night, and suddenly, he regrets ever thinking those nasty things of his guardian. The yokai is hunched by the door, missing an arm and looking very tired. Red runs to him, but the Baron doesn't even acknowledge him, holding a towel to his stump.

Red is crying. He knows he shouldn't, knows that tears mean weakness, but he's afraid for his boss, afraid of what is happening, because that's a lot of blood. He feels something well up in his chest as he sits next to his guardian, the feeling swelling into his lungs and arms, weaving through his bones and into his fingers, bright, blue light zapping over his fingers. Something guides his hand, pressing them against the yokai's injury and forcing the light into him.

He heals Baron Draxum.

Baron Draxum looks at him like he's solved the world's problems.

Age 9-10:

Test after test after test. Red is sure he's never been through so many tests, but he finally sees the Baron's pride and he wants to impress him, so he doesn't complain when the needle digs too far, or when the scalpel scrapes a little to much skin. This new power is good, that's all he knows. Baron Draxum calls it mystic energy, says that it was a power he was seeking all along, so Red doesn't complain when all of the test make him tired enough to pass out, or make him cry himself to sleep because his chest aches from how long he had to work. Baron Draxum is proud, proud enough to give him a portal sword and teach him how to use it, proud enough to hand him a pair of tonfa and guide him through the motions of building a shield, proud enough to smile when Red uses the kusari-fundo for the first time.

Red trains his new skill until he's sick, until he can't stand, until he can't feel the first time Baron Draxum uses that strange, green liquid on him.

Baron Draxum was proud.

Age 11-13:

Red is pretty sure his name isn't Red any more. It's Vermin. At least, that's what the Baron has started to call him.

Ever since he stopped being able to use mystic energy without fainting, Baron Draxum has stopped using that old name. Now he was a pest, a creature incapable of healing, or portaling, or simply making things float. He is weak.

Baron did something while he was sedated; took apart his plastron and looked around inside. Vermin thinks he was looking for what was so wrong with him, why everything the slider does ends up in failure. He now has a shiny new plate of metal on his chest and a paranoia of falling asleep.

He lost count the amount of times he was put to sleep, but every time he woke to something different, and injection of mutagen transforming his body while he was so out of it he couldn't even open his eyes. His toes and fingers become more flexible, grow sharp talons attributed to some sort of owl. His tongue becomes forked, able to scent things by merely breathing. His hearing and eyesight become sharper, a fox's DNA granting him night vision. He becomes stronger, faster, more agile, but it's never enough.

Vermin's starting to think that it never was going to be enough.

Vermin is awake when Baran Draxum puts in the ports, ignoring how painful it is and preferring to strap Vermin to a table while he digs into the slider's neck and arms, leaving six, shiny new devices embedded in his skin. The Baron has Vermin carry around a canister of green liquid on his back, a 'empyrean variant' he said, and with a click of a button, the canister sprouts tubes that dig into his ports, releasing the substance into his bloodstream. It hurts, floods his system with fire, but Vermin was used to pain. Now he just has a few more scars to show for it.

The substance grants him more power, more strength, more speed. His senses, already sharp, become that much more, overwhelming his sensory intake, but he learns how to fight past the side-effects. Missions outside of the lab become easier, training obstacles the Baron create become simple to dispatch, he always hurts but there is no other option.

It's always been the Baron and him, but maybe... maybe it doesn't have to be.

He's tired of hurting, tired to running himself to the ground, tired of covert missions that paint Baron Draxum as the ultimate threat when he's doing all the work, tired to sneaking around New York City in a futile attempt of gathering information that will likely never be useful. He tired of being compared to the experiments that didn't live through the first test, he tired of living up to a trio of dead beings that weren't even strong enough to compete with him. He tired to the punishments, of the bruises, of the empty room, of the nightmares, of the expectations.

He's just tired.

On the morning of his fourteenth year, Vermin comes to the conclusion that Baron Draxum isn't the be-all-end-all, that his ideals do not have to be his own. It fills him with a giddiness that leaves him trembling, his heart pounding.

In the middle of his fourteenth year, Vermin leaves.

Age 14:

The first person Vermin officially meets a human named April O'Neil.

Age 16:

...Vermin is starting to think his name was meant to be Leonardo all along.

[nqueso-emergency]

I wanted to vent: so one angry argument towards Tommy and LFJ is always the subject of the cameos and that we are obsessed with a version that does not exist.

Now, for the cameos I have the personal opinion that it is insane that someone pays $200 or whatever to get a few words from a celebrity, but that’s me being against the glorification of celebrities and thinking that people can use their money better, but not doing so is their pejorative. BUT once the cameos are out there and people share them and they are Lou’s head canons of Tommy, like what is wrong with that? He says “we don’t know, this is all I have created artistically”. Of course an actor has to outline a background for their characters, this is not the cardinal sin that people from the other side are making it look and neither that he shares them. This happens in interviews, cons… is okay and even nice that we can see his acting through the lenses that he acted the scenes.

And like the cannon already made a really neat job of outlining  who he is: he is a rebel (stealing an helicopter), capable (flying said helicopter in the worst conditions), loyal (stealing said helicopter for an old time friend), romantic (love actually), committed (arriving to the hospital), funny (not like that, they had Henley’s in the 80’s), friendly (as per Eddie), good people (as per Bobby), bold (kissing buck that time), complicated past (in the closet until the last 7 years, doesn’t speak with his dad). That is enough to like him a lot, I think.

(also LFJ is HOT)

I agree! I actually love the cameos though so idc if people buy them or not, it's no different than going to a con or buying props from shows/movies imo.

At the end of the day, their anger stems from the fact that Lou had no problem discussing the character at length because how dare a plot device have any fucking depth.

[sharp-silver4795]

I was today years old when I found out that people refer to “Liu Woods” as “[lee-you] woods”…. I’ve heard Leo* and I’ve heard Lou, I have NEVER heard LeEyOu WHAT-

*Note:

The Chinese name “劉” Is transliterated to Liu, pronounced like the name Leo.

Its meaning is a reference to an axe used as a weapon.

This is where I get some of my favorite head cannons about the Woods Family~ Idk if i should post them though because I’m fucked up-

[that-crazy-shark-lady]

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not really a fan of fanfics that have Tommy as a bad cook. And that isn't just because we all know Lou is a great one. But I just think Tommy would be good too. I just have this head cannon that Tommy had to to teach himself how to cook because he wouldn't have food if he didn't because his parents (well dad because I just think Tommy's mom died when he was young) didn't cook. And he didn't cook at the fire house because he was afraid it would set Gerard off about cooking is a woman's job, I mean he does ask Tommy when is girlfriend is going to cook. But I can also see him cooking something and claiming it to be his girlfriend's. Anyways I get having Tommy be a bad cook so Buck can cook him meals. But I also like the image of the too of them cooking together. Or Tommy making Buck's favorite thing after a hard shift. I mean I'll still read the Tommy-can't-cook fanfiction, but I'll also favor the ones that do.

[justhellabifandom]

I'm so sick and tired of the toxicity going on currently in the 9-1-1 fandom. Like don't get me wrong every fandom has it's toxic side but this bs has just grown since Buck came out and Tommy and him started dating.

Like TommyxBuck shippers have been sending people de*th threats to people who have different opinions,or buddie shippers. If your reaction to anyone talking negative about your favorite ship is to send them de*th threats there's something really wrong with you.

Then there's all the biphobia going on. Saying shit like "I hope Buck gets HIV after breaking up with Tommy." Or "Buck isn't bi if he wasn't with Tommy." I'm begging you look up the definition of bisexual,Buck could date another woman or date another dude after Tommy and still be bisexual!! He could date a non-binary person and still be bisexual. Just because hes dating Tommy doesn't mean he's any less bisexual,and if theres ever a break up it doesn't make him any less bisexual. His journey doesn't depend around Tommy,it's his and no one's else. Also saying your hoping a character gets HIV is fucked up for a few reasons,it's stereotyping bisexuals/queer people and it's harmful. Like do people not know what that is?? How people used to use it a excuse to hate queer people in the 1980s and 1990s?? And the people we lost to it??

Now let's get to people wanting Eddie to be killed off. People generally want a cannon Latino to be killed off just so Tommy and Buck raise Chris??? Once again tf. And the fact people now want Eddie to be killed off after his actor opened up about a su*c*de attempt?? This generally hurts people who have delt with this stuff and for people to want this to happen,when we had both Maddie and Bobby struggle with it. Don't get me wrong mental health needs to be talked about more and I'm thankful for 9-1-1 for talking about it,but it's the fact people want this to parallel what the actor went through blows my mind.

Then people trying to justify Lou ferrgnio racist and grows past. I'm sorry if your using Ryans and Olivers past to validate the stuff he's done,is so messed up. What Ryan did cost him his relationship with the rest of the cast for a few years,and he got cancelled and attacked online back in 2020. It's only now Ryan and the rest of the cast have made addends,but it doesn't change the fact he was held accountable for his actions which he should be. He's apologized,showed he wanted to and made sure he would do better. Nothing will change the fact he said it. For Lou he literally kept shit up on his Instagram and never took it down,and tried to justify his characters actions. He never apologized,never took down the post,he just kept it up even though it's harmful. If someone does something they should be held accountable for there actions,even if it's from the past since it could still hurt people now. Also charging 200 dollars for cameros just to make up head cannons about his character.

Also ignoring cannon,like big plots like Buck literally hating his name,gets pissed off at his parents for calling him it. And now people are calling him Evan?

[hlficlibrary]

i'm looking for fanfics where louis and harry are divorced from each other. So like 'getting back together fics' but for divorce instead of breakups

thankyou

Hi, anon! You're very welcome! Here are some fics that fit what you're looking for!

Someone to Fly Home To by @kingsofeverything

Louis. 55 year old pilot who wants someone to fly home to.

Harry swipes right. Or Louis and Harry’s marriage ended more than a decade ago, but fate keeps bringing them back together.

I Just Wanna Get Back to Us by @louiesunshine

“Harry! Hey bro, it’s Zayn.”

He’s confused. Zayn is normally not a morning person, often mad at the universe until eleven or so. It’s definitely odd, why is he so cheery? “Why are you in a good mood, it’s eight in the morning, Z.”

Only a laugh is heard through the phone. “I’ve had two Redbulls.”

That explains it. “What can I do for you? I’m trying to get some sleep before I head over to the studio and to my ultimate death.”

“Harry, I swear to God, you are the most dramatic person I know. It’s going to be alright, there’s nothing to worry about. It’s just Lou.”

Just Lou? This is not just Lou. This is Louis fucking Tomlinson-Styles - err, just Tomlinson now - his soulmate and ex-husband. The only person that Harry is meant to be with for the rest of his life. The person he’s supposed to have children with and live an amazing life with. They’re supposed to grow old and grey together. This universe paired them together for a life long journey.

“This isn’t just Lou, Zayn and you know that.”

Or, where Harry and Louis are divorced soulmates who are seeing each other for the first time in two years.

pull me back together again (the way you cut me in half) by 28sunflowers / @vintageumbroshirt

When trying to figure out who the love of his life is, Harry’s brain brings back a specific name from his past.

That’s why, a decade after a messy divorce, Louis opens his door to find his ex-husband standing on the other side, asking for a second chance.

Or a This Is Us AU starring Harry as Kevin and Louis as Sophie, but I selectively choose to use only some parts of what's cannon on the show.

[tommykinard6]

Hope it is still open to scream about an all or head cannon because I have to scream about this thought. So I have been rewatching SWAT for Lou and I'm at the episode where they mentioned that everyone has an 'if something happens to me letter' and I have been mixing Tommy and Rocker a lot lately so I was thinking what if Tommy's letter is addressed to Buck and when Tommy gets badly injured during an OP Commander Hicks sends the letter to Buck since no one thinks Tommy is gonna wake up again?

Hi @tommy-kinard-buckley ! 🌼🌸🌼

Always ok to scream about headcanons! But take my heart why don’t you 😭 your brain, I love it, but imma go cry in the corner ok? Ok

[takemeorleaveme]

Just because a ship is cannon doesn't mean said shippers can't be delulu.

the only thing BT has over buddie shippers is that BT is canon but they are hypocrites in calling us buddie shippers delusional because they are just as delusional with BT I don't know what show they are watching but its not the same as us lmao I am convinced T*mmy don't even like buck like that the man seems so uninterested in anything buck is excited about he's also boring af around buck which I think is crazy cause when he was trying to woo eddie diaz in becoming his friend he had all these hobbies and flying eddie to vegas and doing trivia nights but he can't even dress up for his boyfriend? are they even boyfriends idk something is so off with the BT pairing that even if I wasn't a buddie shipper I wouldn't ship BT because there is nothing cute or special about it its very onesided in my opinion and the way BT shippers make it seem like its this great big love story when its the most underdeveloped love interest buck has ever had make me LOL like we delusional but you guys are literally making stories and scenes up in your head because BT get no screen time. & I will never understand why there are overly obsessed fans of tommy/lou I just don't get it but from what I have seen of BT shippers and the way they talk about BT its not even close to whats actually happening on the show.... I think the difference between BT shippers and buddie shippers is we buddie shippers actually have scenes and dialogue to go off of and BT shippers have to use their imagination and lou's cameos to make a story up for BT but buddie shippers are Delusional....

[smaeemo]

As a whole, I think so many people don’t truly understand what “being an adult”/having a developed brain, can look like. What I see so much of the time is writers/fans making these fully grown characters act well like teenagers. Which, isn’t suprising given that most of us are in fact teenagers. AND THIS IS NOT A CRITICISM. But more as an observation. I think that when we see a character, say, Buck, and we start to project onto them we turn them roughly to our age. Or whenever we really look at characters/character relationships, we are looking at them, from OUR ages. And so, when I see people head cannoning/speculating things that are very “teenagery” I get the sense of this. And AGAIN there is really nothing wrong with that, until it becomes toxic. And so, you know, I interact and I enjoy these things, until it starts to get out of hand. Such as, the whole “lets all hate on tommy/lou ferrigno jr” situation. And I am FULLY aware this wasn’t just buddie shippers. TRUST. But, what we see there, is that their own insecurities are showing through, and their own perceptions of what relationships will look like in a (teenagery) personal perspective.

And I really, trully and honestly relate, understand, and totally get where we are coming from. And I would be super hypocritical to say I don’t sometimes do this, but when it gets to the point where there is such intense infantilism and drama coming from/to these 40y olds, it starts to get a little tiring. Because, so much of what makes (healthy) adults, “adulty” is the way they interact and view relationships and themselves.A

And because we as teenagers/trauma havers/etc. don’t really see what it’s like/have experienced it, specifically if you’ve never been in/seen a healthy relationship OR the contrary, we don’t really understand what it means to really have this healthy developmental understanding. So, when we look at these characters and relationships, we see it from a teenage/etc. perspective, rather than the target age that the characters are themselves.

Which is why, if you’ve ever rewatched a show, even if just a few months or years apart, you start to notice and see more things. And that just shows that we as people are always maturing and developing. Which is why, when we get older/a broader perspective, so many shows and characters will become so much more intense or understandble.

So again, I will reiterate, I understand and relate to everyone that continues to project onto or understand characters from these perspectives, the only time I don’t is when it starts to become an issue.

And ofc. If none of this applies to you, it’s fine to just scroll, reblog, etc. Just don’t provide negativity or hate. lol.

Also, I am speaking more from a sense of self reflection more than anything else. As I continue to mature I start to realize so much more of everything. Like rewatching friends has been a JOURNEY.

Anyways, send fic recs and q&as if you made it this far!

XOXO,

Leenya

[0perfectimperfections0]

What if Ox comes to Moxy at the Institute and he meets Lou?

It had been nearly a day and Uglyville itself was relatively quiet. The Uglies that were strolling about town were either working at their respective shops or simply enjoying the nice weather. Other than that, nothing seemed rambunctious.

Which was Ox's first sign that something was wrong.

It didn't hit him until he had walked past the Greeting Circle where new dolls landed and were welcomed into the town that he realized what was wrong.

A broken, half-burnt helicopter was scattered across the ground, a trampoline with a hole in it, a cannon, and an old De Havilland Beaver with the propeller broken off of it.

Babo.

Ox looked up at the flower protruding from the cardboard cliff, seeing it wide open rather than closed. It only opened when a new arrival came. He had designed it to be that way.

Which meant that someone either came into Uglyville...or went out, and Ox was willing to bet the latter.

<><><>

The gang was in the middle of training. Lou watched them with a bored expression. He didn't even have to mess them up for the paint obstacle; they did just fine on their own. UglyDog had already gotten hit with a splatter of paint several times and tossed in the wash by the Exposition Robots.

UglyDog stumbled out of the wash, his eye rolling around as he tried to get his bearings on the world. He fell face first onto the platform when his paw slipped on the rim of the washer.

Which did not work in his favor because, ow, but did work in his favor because he was the first one to spot the familiar green blob in the distance. UglyDog's ears perked up once the world stopped spinning and a wide smile stretched across his face. He didn't think twice before hopping back up onto his paws and calling out to the bunny. "Ox!"

The Exposition Robots registered the name, already having it saved in their memory. They turned and saw the bunny. Their eyes flashed red for a beat before they wheeled off quickly to capture the rabbit.

Ox startled and didn't have enough time to bolt for it before one of the robots had him dangling by his ears in its hand. "Let me go!" He swung a few vain punches toward the metal can, but it did nothing. The robot held its arm out further to keep Ox from landing any swings.

UglyDog ran up to them, his tail wagging and apparently not thinking anything of the situation Ox now found himself in. "Watcha doin' here, Ox? Did you find the void in the flower? Moxy's here too! THe Big World is real, too!-"

Ox spoke up before the canine could talk his ears off with information he already knew. "I'm kinda in a pickle, UglyDog." He looked back at the robot holding him. "Now let me go 'for I smash yer gears in!"

The robot's eyes flashed as it registered the threat, though it didn't seem to take Ox's warning seriously. "Why have you not been destroyed? Prototype Mod-"

"Ox!" Moxy's voice called out and her and her friends bounded up to him and UglyDog. She, too, had a wide smile on her face and didn't see a problem with his current situation. Those Exposition Robots were funny, sometimes. "How'd you find us? Did you get in the flower? It took us hours to get UglyDog tossed up there-"

"Oh, for the love of-" Ox sighed and rubbed a paw down his face. "Look, ya'll shouldn't be here. I don't know what ya'll were thinkin' when climbin' into the pipe, but it's time to head back home."

Moxy's face fell and she gestured avidly to the Institute around them. "But we can't leave! We're training to go to the Big World, which is real, by the way!" Her face quickly became excited again.

Ah, great. They know about the Big World now.

Ox refrained from letting out a frustrated groan. His ears were starting to hurt from how hard the robot was gripping them. Luckily, another voice spoke up.

"Release him."

The robot's eyes flashed and it let go of the bunny. Ox landed on his feet smoothly, rubbing a paw over his ears to soothe them. He looked up as a familiar blond walked up to the group. Lou looked calm, all things considered, but Ox saw the mild surprise and frustration in his eyes. His arms were folded behind his back. "What's going on?"

Moxy was quick to speak before Ox could even open his mouth to. "This is our mayor from Uglyville! His name's Ox!" She gestured proudly to the bunny.

Lou glanced from her to Ox again. His expression was unreadable to the others. Ox didn't know how to feel about meeting his old friend again. Did Lou remember him? It seemed like a stupid question, after all they had been through.

Ox spoke up. "I came to take them back to Uglyville."

Moxy pouted and her arms fell to her sides. "B-But what about the Big Wo-?"

"Good. They're all yours, then," Lou said simply before turning back around to walk away.

Ox blinked. Was that it? No reunion, or hug, or anything of the like? He didn't get a chance to question it because the other Exposition Robot wheeled up to Lou, stopping him.

"The defective doll has not been destroyed."

Lou clenched his jaw. He really didn't want to go through this whole thing again. "I'm aware. He's leaving right now."

"It must be destro-"

"I said he's leaving," Lou said a bit more sharply. He turned back to Ox, his face tense. "Get out of here and back to where you came from." He held up a hand to silence Moxy when she opened her mouth to protest. "I won't take no for an answer."

Ox understood what Lou was trying to do. He looked over at Moxy and her friends. "Let's go. We ain't welcome here."

"I'm not leaving," Moxy put her foot down. She glared up at Lou, stomping up to him. "We've come way too far for you to just kick us out!"

Lou met her gaze evenly, bending at the waist until the two were face-to-face. "Believe me, you'd rather it be me kicking you out then the robots. So, I suggest you leave now while you have the chance."

Moxy's determined look faltered for a moment as she considered the implications behind his words. Still...she couldn't just toss her dreams out like that. Her face was set again when she spoke. "The only way I'm leaving is through that portal."

"Moxy-" Ox started.

"No," she cut him off quickly, her eyes never leaving Lou's, "he can threaten us all he wants to, but I'm not backing down now. I'm not going back to Uglyville. And if you make us leave, I'm just gonna come back."

The Exposition Robot's eyes flashed red before responding. "Rule Number 52-"

"Let me clarify what I just told you," Lou spoke up to stop the robot, his eyes trained on Moxy. "You can't stay here. I allowed you to train, and that's what you did, and now you're leaving."

"You said we could go to the Big World," Moxy said.

"I said I would let you stay here for the foreseeable future," Lou corrected. "That future has come, so get out. Ox is right. You're not welcome here, and you won't make it to the Big World."

Ox grabbed Moxy by the hand to try and lead her toward the pipe. "Moxy, let's go."

She pulled her hand out of his, facing him now. "And what about you? Why aren't you more excited about the Big World? Why aren't you happy that it's real? That you can go to it?"

Ox didn't know how to answer such loaded questions. He glanced up at Lou, his mouth parted slightly as he tried to form a response. He finally shook his head and gave her a stern look. "This ain't our world, Moxy. We belong in Uglyville, and that's exactly where we're goin'."

"How'd you find this place?" Wage spoke up suddenly, her arms crossed.

Ox bit the inside of his cheek, keeping his tone and expression even. "Took a wild guess. I saw Babo's little toys and thought ya'll done wound up here."

"Yeah, but how'd you find this place?" Wage asked more specifically.

"It ain't that hard to walk through a pipe-"

"Pipe?" Moxy questioned, her expression now confused. "You didn't take the slides here?"

Ox internally winced at his own mistake, realizing they must have wound up down the pipe that branched off closer to where the factory assembly lines dropped off new dolls. He had memorized the route straight past the recycle. He hesitated a moment too long. "I-"

"You've been here before," Wage said it more as a statement, her shoulders falling at the realization.

Lou spoke up quickly, keeping his expression in check. "I'd know if he's been here before. I've never seen him in my life. Like I said, Uglies don't belong here."

Moxy narrowed her eyes up at Lou before his words clicked and she glanced over at Ox. "You said we shouldn't be here, either. You didn't seem too shocked to be here...or to see us."

Lou snapped his fingers and the robot suddenly grabbed Moxy by the strange thing on her head. She yelped as she was suddenly suspended. "Take them back to the pipe. Don't bother waiting for them to be destroyed, and come back to me immediately," he told the robot.

Ox didn't say anything. He knew Lou wasn't going to destroy them. The way to recycling had been blocked. His friends panicked, though, as more robots came to grab them and carry them off. He'd have to apologize for the panic once they were back in Uglyville.

Another robot was about to grab Ox, but Lou held up a hand to stop it. "I'll take him myself."

"But last time-"

"I'll take care of it." Ox wanted to scoff. He'd heard those words before. Lou began walking and Ox walked beside him. The protests of his friends could still be heard from this distance. He just hoped they wouldn't try to get out of the recycle on their own and head back here before he could talk some sense into them.

"I blocked the recycle," Ox said after a moment.

"I know," Lou didn't spare a glance at the bunny. "I turned the machine off."

Ox now had the decency to look surprised. He blinked, looking up at Lou, but was a little disappointed that his friend wouldn't meet his gaze. "What about the imperfect dolls?"

"I'm not exactly in the good graces of the factory, right now," Lou let out a slow exhale as they walked. "There's no harm in letting imperfect dolls go to the Big World, any more."

Ox felt an uncomfortable pit form in his stomach. It sounded like a good thing, but Ox knew that just meant Lou didn't have much of a reason to not get in trouble anymore.

They made it to the pipe. The Exposition Robots wheeled out, stopping when they saw the two. "The defective dolls have been recycled."

Lou nodded, knowing full well they weren't. "Good. You're dismissed." The robot's eyes landed on Ox and Lou spoke again quickly. "I'll take care of it. You're dismissed," he spoke a bit more firmly this time and the robot got the message. It's eyes flashed twice before it led the other robots away to oversee the training.

Ox watched and waited until they were out of sight before speaking. "Sorry about them," he nodded towards the pipe where his friends were, "Moxy's curious and she's good at ropin' her friends into stuff."

"Reminds me of someone," Lou let the smallest smile pull at the corner of his mouth. Ox squinted his eye, grinning a little at the blond. Lou nodded his head toward the pipe. "You should go before they get themselves hurt."

The bunny nodded, his smile falling a little. This probably would be the last time he'd see Lou. Hopefully. It felt wrong to hope it would be, but Uglies really weren't allowed here. Ox took a step into the pipe, memories flooding his mind of the first time Lou led him here. He paused and turned back around. "Did...you mean to recycle me? Was that your plan?"

Lou's face pinched for a brief moment, his jaw tightening and body going rigid. He parted his mouth, hesitating before speaking. "I...don't know."

Ox furrowed his brows, his heart breaking at the answer, but Lou continued after another moment.

"I just needed you gone," Lou spoke carefully, "and I don't know in what way I wanted that to happen...but...if you're asking if I wanted you to leave...no, I didn't."

Ox's face relaxed and he let his heart piece itself back together. He looked down at his feet for a moment, nodding slowly. A part of him really wanted to give Lou a hug, but he worried it would make leaving again much more difficult. He'd have to just rip off the band aid and leave.

With no other words, Ox turned around and continued down the pipe, trying to not let the water building up in his eye fall.

Lou watched him go, again, and resisted the urge to run up to him and hug him. He worried he'd be tempted to beg Ox to stay, or worse, ask Ox if he could come to Ugly-

Wait.

Lou's eyes widened and his heart raced. Before he could think better of it, he spoke up. "Ox, wait."

At this point, I don't know why I bother writing single short stories when they just end up possibly becoming series. But, I leave it up to you guys, cause I know there's some of you that ask for another part to my singles that I didn't think needed or warranted a second part. So, we'll see what becomes of this one.

And, yes, I did spend at least 30 minutes google image searching the plane that Babo had pulled out of his pocket and went through an in-depth search to figure out which model it was loosely based on.

[lenaboskow]

Lol it's honestly probably as simple and meaningless as they need people to do some end-of-the-season press, he was available, and they see that some people have taken a liking to Tommy/the bucktommy relationship, so why not let him do a little press (that isn't him head-cannoning some bs to fans for $$.) They're not going to say more than "you'll just have to tune in and see what happens!" about literally anything. Plus Lou didn't tag Oliver, Oliver is giving off "are we done, can I please leave now?" vibes...like if bucktommy has a long, legit future on the show, and the actors already know that's the direction their characters are going, you would NEVER know it. And I know that's not a guarantee of anything but given that Oliver isn't afraid to talk about/share his other castmates on sm, well....

i 100% agree but y'all. the timing. it's weird, right?

Some of my favorite moments from the shadows house Manga and anime

(of course spoilers ahead)

Anyone who's seen my previous post about my head cannons for mistress Shirley and Rum will immediately know that these two are my favorite more specifically Rum as she is just the sweetest little thing ever in the show

Here are some of the reasons why she's just so precious

Her photographic memory

Her ability to calculate things in her head very quickly

She's so shy that she has to use her finger to talk to people

She's actually a bit more tan than the rest of the characters making her stand out from that alone

The manga makes it clear that the animal associated with her would be a rabbit/bunny

She's incredibly shy around new people but enjoys people like emilico who are very outgoing and who can stand up for her

She doesn't like being a burden to other people around her (pretty sure a lot of us can relate to that)

I really do think that if mistress Shirley survived the debut she would have been a lot like Emilico just holding on to Rum hugging her and squeezing her face as rum lets people do that to her

She's totally touch starved

When I went back and looked through the manga I noticed that I wasn't the only person who thought Rum was too precious to hurt, it seems like a lot of other characters know to be gentle with her

For context about the scenes

Emilico pets Rum's hair in order to comfort her about her feelings about mistress Shirley and whether or not she deserves to save her during the debut

We never get to see this in the anime, but in the manga it's revealed that when Emilico and Rum first found the hut that had the orange tree in it rum was holding on to her dress the whole time and Emilico didn't seem to mind (it wouldn't surprise me if she told rum that it was okay for her to do that)

(Serious spoilers) During the chapter when they first meet Emilico, Shawn says close to the end of it that "the five of them will become close friends once they enter the house", and when he says that we see Lou putting her hand on Rum's back in a very gentle way as if to support her

(Serious spoilers) The last scene has Patrick patting Rum on the head as she looks like she's about to cry. Why let's just say him, Rum and Ricky were all yelled at by a mean Shadow causing them all to fly back in a cute anime style he pet her head in order to comfort her

And it's not just them being gentle with her it turns out many people also recognize her skills and compliment her for it

(seems like my head Cannon about her becoming friends with the future debut members was actually true I mean look at Matilda asking her to become friends with her that's the sweetest thing ever)

I think these scene speak for themselves

But my favorite part about all of this is her relationship with Emilico as the manga reveals in future chapters that the reason why Rum even has a bow on her finger to begin with is because of her

(Once again A Major spoilers but mostly for these two) for context, the name Rum and Rummy in the show come from a subconscious memory Rum has of her little toy bunny that she had back when she was in the village, the reason why she calls herself a Rum is because it comes from her old toys name… an old toy that just so happened to have a bow on its ear… the same bow that she now wears when we first met her, all the way up to the end of the debut. The lavender bow on Shirley's finger actually belonged to Rum before she entered the house (which explain the color she was given when she did enter the house)

This is one of the many reasons why I really love Rum, she is just a sweetheart of a character that just screams "MUST PROTECT!". I have a lot more head cannons for her than I do a Emilico or anybody else of this show, and I think it's because of the hidden potential they have with a character like her. They took full advantage of it and one of the earlier scenes and I hope they continue to do that. She's an underrated character with the most amount of potential for growth

this is a dump about the uglydolls movie novel 💋💋💋

Alrighty I'm basically a regular here SO LETS GET TO IT

lodoeheie so I just got the movie novel of uglydolls because i need to fill my hunger for uglydolls content and THERE R SO MANY LITTLE DETAILS AND DIFFERENCES IN THE BOOK???!!???

ok so Lou's monologue in the pipes are completely different and they kind of point out details about Lou like his loafers being expensive and allat

BUT IM NOT TALING ABOTU TAGT

there's this one part in the book where they are about to reveal Ox after the all dolled up scene and instead of Ox, Nolan was behind Lou???? I think it was just supposed to show how awkward Nolan is idk 💀💀

ALSO for some reason I feel like EVERUTIME Nolan made an appearance they always described him as "the handsome doll" and I find that so so silly but I love it

oh YEYEHA it's implied in the book that the dolls wear their own clothes when they aren't doing training which was not the case in the movie (probably due to animation complications)

in the gauntlet scene, in the book, it was Mandy who kinda taunted Lou to participate in the gauntlet rather than him deciding to buy himself. Also it made me think why he even decided to join it in both medias when he knew he'd fail but my friend and I just established that at that point he was probably already batshit crazy and had nothing to lose

the whole Ox flashback part was longer and had more details to it. So both Lou and Ox went for the gauntlet together and completed it but it showed that they failed and everyone thought it was Ox that caused them to fail when it was really Lou (kind of sad that Lou probably knew it was himself and had to put the blame on Ox)

it was also mentioned that both Lou and Nolan have somewhat of a muscular build so time to make some new head cannons

IM SO SORRY THAT THESE POINTS WERE ALL OVER THE PLACE AND THERE'S TYPOS EVERYWHERE

I just found thrse so interesting I'm so sorry

the book is pretty good imo (probably biased) and there's more stuff than what I put here so DEFINITELY go read it for yourself

why hello, we meet again... time for more rambling xD STRAP IN EVERYONE!

yes!! i've known about the novel for a hot minute. i haven't bought or read it (...yet) but i remember seeing silentreadersmatter (i believe?) post about it on wattpad... so shoutout to them lol. anywho time to respond to each thing mentioned in order (just about)...

lou with loafers!!: i always assumed he wore some sort of fancy shoewear... so it's nifty that they added clarification i guess xD

awkward nolan: awkward nolan is the superior nolan (in my opinion. i'm sorry lads)... i see nolan be depicted as a 'uwu soft boy bottom" most of the time... but i always thought he was just a awkward doll. like, an anxious mess that is trying his best but fumbles constantly. he's a ball of anxiety, and i love him. ANYWAYS

buff nolan real??: GOSH, I AM SO GLAD SOMEONE NOTICED THE MUSCULAR NOLAN THING. i always imagined nolan to be taller than the other dolls (he isn't really in the film but i always headcanoned it so because his uniform is smaller as if he was too big for it) but once i saw him be called "handsome" and "tall" and "muscular" in the novel, i flipped. the little baby boy is actually a BIG BUFF BABY. i have a doodle of this from a few months ago heheh... (thank you for giving me an excuse to show it because it's been lingering in my files for a while LMAO)

^^^ lou is just trying to act evil and devious but he got this tall, handsome muscular doll getting in his way xD

ohhh but i can just imagine instead of the robot dog taking lou to the washer, nolan personally picks him up and drags him there. now THAT'S a moment i want to see.

fashion: oh, i didn't know about the clothes thing! DAMNIT i want to see them all in casual clothing, so i know what kind of styles they wear!! i mean, there's a concept art with lou in a white jumper with a golden 'L' on it... but that's all.

i have my headcanons for what they wear, but it would be cool to see... especially since most other dolls normally do have numerous outfits for the kids to dress them up in.

gauntlet: yeah, lou kinda lost the plot around that point. i would take a guess that he was probably unnerved by just basically killing two dolls, one that he knew (possibly for a while) and one that was close to his old friend, so when he saw mandy still alive he was like "well sh*t." and then came the downward spiral of him trying to sabotage the others, before inevitably sabotaging himself. ...but i think the book's version of mandy getting the crowds to peer pressure lou to joining the gauntlet made more sense (lou's reputation would be at stake and his reputation is basically all he has) than him joining anyways in the film. i guess they tried to make it make more sense with the whole "I don't even have to win. I just need to make sure you lose." but ehh... eh....

ox's tragic anime backstory: yes!! they should've done this version in the film honestly. perhaps they could've even shown lou's regret for lying to basically his only friend. ...oh wait, i forgot. lou's meant to be a 100% evil villain who kicks babies. anyways, again i feel that the novel made more sense than the canon we got in film. i guess in the film ox got recycled because he was causing others to fail by accident? but the novel's version is much more interesting.

if i remember correctly (and if i don't, count this as a rewritten version lol) the assistant robots took ox away after he 'failed' in the novel. i can imagine a scene where we are in ox's perspective, being forcefully dragged away to the pipes whilst lou looks at him, dread and sadness written across his face, yet he doesn't try to stop the robots. he just stands there, biting back his guilt. ohh... if only...

STRONG BOYS!!: heheheheh strong nolan and lou... would be funny if nolan didn't appear strong, but is actually stronger than lou. but then again, how can you tell if the doll is strong? they all look like same. lou says his arms are bumped or whatever in ugly truth but WHERE? WHERE'S THE BUMPED ARMS LOU??

anywho, thank you for the novella lore dump! for anyone who is interested, go check out the novel as well. it's pretty interesting if you are deep into doll purgatory. (also it's mentioned that ox used to wear a fedora from what i remember)(THAT IS TERRIBLE. I LOVE IT)
