[bradshawsbaby]

Honey I just wanna say you are absolutely amazing and a big congrats on the one year celebration!!!! I was a little bit nervous to send something in but I completely cracked (lol).

I wanted to share a little blurb with you if it's ok but lately I've been thinking about Bob x wifey!reader having a little cottage down in Key West, Florida that was probably built in the 1950s because it's turquoise with the peach pink hurricane shutters. It's where you guys take the whole squad on vacation when things get a little too hairy around Fightertown. It's where you and Bob honeymooned and then Jake and Phoenix after you as well as the others and their s.os. When the babies started entering the family? You guys are constantly on the beach, sunburned even with sunscreen slathered all over you. You and Phoenix have tiny little seashells braided into your hair (courtesy of Bob and Jake), the garden is always in bloom and you guys can go scuba diving on pirate ships wrecked off the island. The only thing you could do without besides the sunburns are having to listen to Bob and Mickey arguing over who's the better college team, the Seminoles or the Hurricanes (but when Jake jumps in with the Texas teams, the both of them gang up on Jake, lol).

I know the blurb is kinda long and I'm sorry, there's just alot I wanna get out (lol). Again honey, big congrats on the celebration, I love your writing and any time you wanna share Hannix thoughts/thots or whatever I'll gladly listen.

Aww, you don’t have to be nervous to send ideas in! I always welcome them! ☺️ Thank you so much! 🩷

This is the sweetest little blurb ever! I adore the idea of spending the summer getting sunburned on the beach with Bob and our babies 🥰 And it must be an absolute blast when the whole Dagger Squad is there!

Thanks for sending this thought in! And I’m always happy to share the Hannix thoughts! 🤭

Join my “TOP ONE” Anniversary Celebration! 🥳

Disney Cruise Line Unveils First Disney TVA Cruise Attraction: Aquamouse For The Disney Wish Cruise

If you’re planning a cruise aboard the Disney Wish next summer, you might want to pack your snow gear. We’re headed to the Alps!

The first-ever Disney attraction at sea. Disney shared details about the ride’s original show “Scuba Scramble” — inspired by “The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse” animated shorts —which will immerse guests in a hilarious underwater adventure with Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse through show scenes and special effects.

Walt Disney Imagineering and Disney TVA developed not one, but two brand-new original animated adventures to experience on this wild water ride!

In The First Show s the story goes, Mickey and Minnie are starting their very own seaside excursion company — aptly named “Port Misadventures” — on board the Disney Wish, and adventuresome cruisers will join them on an undersea excursion to Mermaid Lagoon that will inevitably (and hilariously) go awry.

The journey will begin when you board a two-seater ride vehicles and ascend into a magical tunnel that will teleport you into the cartoon world of “Scuba Scramble,” a new animated short that plays out through oversized virtual portholes. Along the way, you’ll encounter curious sea creatures, familiar Disney friends and more than 60 water effects that bring the subaquatic hijinks to life

At the height of the show, you’ll blast out of the tunnel and embark on a wild water ride around the upper decks. First, you’ll zip into the forward funnel through an enclosed tube surrounded by dazzling lighting effects, followed by a quick dash through a dark tunnel that opens up to reveal breathtaking views of the ocean.

You’ll then jet up and down a series of speed blasters as they are propelled toward the grand finale: a soaring loop over the edge of the ship, with clear views down to the deep blue sea. With that, you’ll splash down for a sendoff message from Mickey and Minnie – another successful tour in the books!

Our second show is “Swiss Meltdown,” where Mickey and Minnie will invite you on a mountain sledding excursion that will inevitably (and hilariously) go awry. When the sun comes out and the snow begins to melt, you’ll be off on a frantic dash to the mountaintop while trying to avoid obstacles like avalanches, leaky rock walls and waterfalls — oh, boy! The story is inspired by one of the Emmy Award-winning “Mickey Mouse” shorts, “Yodelberg,” Directed by Disney’s Billy Dilley’s Super Duper Subterranean Summer creator Aaron Springer 

Composer Christopher Willis adapted his iconic score for both shows for the attraction.

There are many fun Disney easter eggs to catch during a ride on AquaMouse, such as an appearance by the abominable snowman from the Disneyland attraction Matterhorn Bobsleds. One of my favorite details is that Chip and Dale are hiding in each show, hitchhiking their way to Disney’s private island of Castaway Cay. Good luck trying to spot them amid the 60-plus water blasters, misters and pop jets that you’ll encounter along the way!

Micky Henry, dark, noncon.

August.

You come home to Micky’s friend’s apartment from getting your visa extended. “Hello…?”

Mickey bursts from the kitchen in nothing but scuba glasses and his tighty whiteys brandishing a knife, “Excuse me?? Who are you and why are you in my home??”

You burst out laughing at the sight. He drops the knife and advances on you and slaps you hard on the ass, “OoW!”

“What’re you laughing at ? Huh? Yiu wanna fight? Huh?”, he says with a fake sneer, and you delightedly say “ Yes!”So you fake spar with him as he easily wins the fight by restraining your punches and getting you in a bear hug. You’re laughing like a kid. He then picks you up and messily blows raspberries on your exposed belly. “Oh you think thats funny, huh?,” he says in comically fake anger, as he jostles you in his arms, “I’ve got something really funny for you,” he says as he pulls you around his hips and rocks you on his hardening cock thats pressing into your clothed pussy. He kisses your face and blindly staggers over to the couch and lowers you onto it, dropping you before you reach it. He falls around you and you lol like kids. Then he fucks you very lovingly.

December.

“Oh thank god-,” Mickey says, as he tries to welcome home-hug you, but you push his hands off. He shuts the door after you come in from you jail stint. You’re stunned and pissed that he somehow got out of jail early and didn’t even try to get you out. Micky keeps trying to put his hands on your shoulders, your arms. He wants you to listen to him, to understand, but you feel like he’s trying to control you and you become even more pissed off at him. You slap away his hands, hard, “Get your hands off me.” He’s upset, frustrated, and its turning to anger with how unreasonable you’re being; its on his face, in his voice. When you yell at him about your ex, he still has his composure, but he starts to unravel. “I don’t give fuck about Christos! It’s always Christos with you-,” he spats out. You’re always talking about your ex , and Mickey always feels emasculated when you do, even if he doesn’t show it. He knows he’s a fuckup, a loser, while Christos is a big shot, sauve, and condescending to him. You dramatically put your hand over your eyes and wail, “I knew I should have gone back to Chicago, Fuck you, Mickey!”

Mickeys restraint breaks. He gets down in your face, “Fuck me? Fuck ME?? Am I the one who told me to get naked?”Am I the one who fought a cop?” He walks you back into the wall. “Or was it YOU???”

You feel hurt and theatened by his demeanor. You’ve never seen him this angry before. But when he says “You,” you get mad and slap him across the face, hard enough to whip it to the side. He’s stunned, and before he can think, he’s slapped you back. He’s breathing heavy, he instantly regrets it, but some deeper part of him thinks you deserved it and he feels justified. He pulls your hand from your cheek and kisses you fiercely. When you don’t respond, he kisses you brutally, his hands all over you, to prove that you belongs to him. Then he puts you over his shoulder and walks off to the bedroom. You pound on his back and kick your foot into him, and he cracks you hard across your ass, then throws you down on the bed. He knows he fucked up bad, but he’s furious and horny, and he takes it all the way with you, fucking you without restraint. Both of you are in tears by the end, for different reasons.

What part do you want me to expand on for this one? It's already written out really well lol!

BTS on Their Honeymoon

A/n: The honeymoon is where the sex happens right? 

W/C: 3.1k 

Tags: Pregnancy kink, non-explicit sex, smut, mentions of unplanned pregnancy

Seokjin 

Takes you to a private island for your honeymoon.

Imagine Seokjin in a rolled up button down shirt with the first few buttons popped and a pair of sunglasses. 

Seokjin spares no expense - renting out this upscale bungalow, a fully stocked fridge with booze, that has it’s own boat in case you want to go back into town. 

You walk into a bed covered with rose petals and a bottle of champagne waiting for the two of you, Seokjin kisses every inch of you and makes you serenade the crashing waves with choked moans of his name all night. 

You spend the first day walking along the beaches wading in and out of the crystal blue waters. 

You both go scuba diving to see the reefs and the colorful fish and end up getting a picture taken underwater with a sea turtle that becomes your favorite photo taken on the trip. 

At night Seokjin takes you out to sit and watch the cruise ships coming into shore and even drags you into the water. 

you leave your clothes in the sand, and press your bodies together,  skin to skin in the warm tropical water, making love in the warm water with your legs slung around his waist. 

During the daytime, it’s your turn to push him down into the sand- on the secluded beach with no one around.

you shuck off his beach bottoms, and sit astride him with your hands on his shoulders, he runs his hands up and down your back, unable to feel enough of your body. 

you slowly ride him- most of the time he’d mind the speed but not now, not when he can look into your eyes and see the love in them.

saltwater rolling off your hot bodies to pool in the sand as you make him groan and close his eyes in bliss, making him mutter your name like a prayer. 

Seokjin literally can't get enough of your body for the entirety of the honeymoon, by the end of the 5th day spent rolling around in the sheets, you even say, “I don’t know how you still have the cum for this,”

And Jin just laughs and kisses your shoulder, “I always have more for you.” and it’s gross and a little cringey- but in the end that’s your husband. 

He does relent, taking you to pet some of the dolphins and manta rays and even to a large island for a dinner of crab and lobster. 

“Anything my wife desires,” he tells the waiter.

Yoongi

The two of you spend a full 2 weeks in a secluded cottage in the mountains. 

It’s a cute cozy place full of duvets, fur rugs, and automatic fireplaces that throw heat like no body’s job and keep off the winter chill.

The two of you spend the first few days hold up in each other’s arms, enjoying the quiet away from the city. 

You don’t need anyone else in your little warm bubble on the side of the mountain; you guys don’t turn on your phones or computers- you just drink each other in. 

But your relationship with Yoongi had always been 50% unconditional all-consuming love and 50% endless passion. 

So For Yoongi, the honeymoon would 100% be about making love to you as many times as he could and in many varied and kinky ways that would make you so vocal he feared you would trigger an avalanche 

Yoongi makes love to you in front of the fireplace on the soft fur rug, the kisses he presses to your lips and to your skin burning like he was lighting a flame in you from the inside out.  

Thrusting into you as such a speed that you surely have bruises after. Growling lowly as he came that you where his- you’d be his forever. 

Ties each of your limbs to the corners of the four poster bed, and makes you cum so hard that you can barely walk the next day- not that he minds- he just ends up carrying you everywhere. Even to the hot tub out back which does a good job of relaxing your muscles 

he cants stop drinking in the way the jets of water are coaxing moans out of you, your lips parted as your cheeks pink up from the cold outside in contrast to the warm water 

Which of course results in him pulling you into his lap to make you moan for him, you hadn’t even bothered to bring a bathing suit so he took advantage of the fact that you were already nude. 

He fucks you Up against the cold window in the middle of the night so that anyone out in the woods would be able to see your naked forms. 

Before you go back- Yoongi treats you to a couples spa day in the city you fly out of.

Pampering the fuck out of you with a full body massage, facial, full body aloe Vera treatment, a fresh manicure and pedicure, and a deep conditioning treatment for your hair. 

You make him get the facial with you and he relents after you catch him falling asleep after the steam that yeah it wasn’t so bad- and he’ll probably end up getting them more often with you when you go back to Korea.

And you’re fucking glad that he warns the female masseuse that you have a lot of… ugh, love marks in unfortunate places.

Your honeymoon ends up being just what you need and you return to your lives sated…. for now. 

Though being married to Yoongi, you know it’s only a matter of time.

Hoseok 

You decide to have a little more of an adventurous honeymoon- you don’t have a set return date in mind when you set out on you a road trip across the continental us and parts of Canada.

With a start in Portland where you get to see some of your favorite artists play together at a festival. 

You hop from city to city exploring urban exhibits, museums, and staying in a new hotel every night (which might be good, seeing as you too tend to make the beds very messy)

You get to hug the massive trees in the redwood forest and see the coast of California.  

Hoseok and you drive into the middle of the desert, and he makes love to you under the Milky Way galaxy with only the stars as your witness among the cactuses. 

He touches your face and marvels at how lucky he got that you became his. 

borrows Jungkooks camera and takes a ton of pictures

You go to the Grand Canyon and go spelunking in the caves of the Colorado River, marveling over the stalactites and stalagmites. And laughing when a bat startles Hobi. 

You guys go dinosaur bone hunting before you head down to New Orleans and dance the night away in a real New Orleans jazz club, and Hoseok tells you he could stay in New Orleans forever just for the music if it wasn’t so humid and smelly. 

You whale watch in the Gulf of Mexico while you take a luxury ferry boat down to Miami and then a car to Disney world

You almost die of laughter when Hoseok rides the tower of terror.  The two of you take dorky photos wearing Mickey ears and wear buttons that say- just married. 

The two of you watch the fireworks in magic kingdom and he presses his lips to yours and tells you that every wish he’s ever made was for you. And it’s cheesy but it still makes you cry and you know you’ll remember it forever. 

There are marvelous misadventures as well such as the condom breaking when you’re 3 days into your first backpacking trip- way too many days away from the morning after pill. 

And you’re realizing that they’res no use for you to hike out and try to take it while you're witnessing the sunrise over the mountains that color the  field of wildflowers light yellow  when Hoseok takes your hand and presses the back of it to his mouth and says, 

“Even if the worst happens I know well both meet it together.” Because really- even though you got married young, Hoseok is 100% devoted to you and wouldn’t mind having kids with you now. Though it would be nice to wait a few years at least. 

So when you take the test the day before you fly back to Korea, and find that yes- you defiantly made a baby with Jung Hoseok, he can’t find it in himself to be anything other than incandescently happy.

Namjoon

The two of you spend three weeks in Italy, spending the first week in Venice where he rents out an entire canal side apartment with a rooftop garden and stargazing sight and back patio. 

Your honeymoon is slow and leisurely, time spent lingering over meals and in bed in the mornings. 

He takes you on a gondola ride the first day. 

You do all of the touristy things- visit museums together, walk the streets in the afternoons when the light is all golden and the streets are hazy 

You attempt to try every flavor of gelato and quickly get preoccupied with the different types of chocolate, which Namjoon thinks is adorable. 

You both could spend a lifetime wandering the city streets arm and arm and never get bored, finding the back alley hole in the wall places that have the best food. 

He takes you to a different famous restaurant each evening and to a wine and painting class underneath the hot Mediterranean sun, 

And at night Namjoon will lean in close to you and asks you how misses Kim is enjoying her honeymoon, her food, or her wine, 

and sometimes you’ll coyly look away, and he’ll kiss you his lips tasting like gelato or pinot noir as he asks “how about now?” and then another kiss “now?”

And he’ll drag you home to make love to you with you bent over the railing of the rooftop garden, 

“You gotta be quiet honey- you don’t want anyone to hear us up here do you?” 

The next week you spend in Rome where the two of you go to see the Vatican- and almost get kicked out for being too handsy, 

You get a private wine tour and the hosts let you loose in the wine fields, you guys are a little tipsy and a little too enamored by the smell of the white grapes and fertile Italian dust, 

So you hardly protest when Namjoon hoists you up- and in a show of strength that he’s proud of slings your legs over his shoulders with your back pressed against an olive tree, and eats you out like you’re a damn full course meal, 

By the time you wander back, your legs are jelly and he won't wipe the smirk off his face. “Did your wife get sunstroke, Mr. Kim?” the hostess asks, inquiring after your dazed expression  

“Maybe- we better turn in, don’t worry, I’ll take care of Mrs. Kim”  

And take care of you he did. 

Your honeymoon was more a relaxing adventure than anything else and you come back to your lives, ready to start on projects that you’d both abandoned before.

Jimin 

Jimin really wants to be a literal fairy tale prince for you- so the two of you spend nearly a month in France, even renting an actual chateau for part of it- though you do tour a fair few as well. 

You guys take a tour of champagne France, and Jimin gets progressively more and more complementary the more he drinks the bubbly liquor mixed with peaches or lemon. 

“I wouldn’t be surprised if you where an actual princess- we should check your family tree.” 

“This prime rib tastes good but I’d rather eat something else if you know what I mean.” 

“is it just me or am I the luckiest man in the world?” 

And the two of you get so wasted that the owner has to drive you home giggly. 

But once you’re back in the castle, the walls of yellow wood and gold leaf are warm and inviting. Jimin hugs you from behind, hooking his hands into the tops of your jeans by his thumbs and kissing your cheek, his lips sliding down the side of your face to suck on your neck. 

“Will let you make you mine in every way Jagi? Now that we’re married?”

Needless to say, you guys defiled every single inch of the chateau, you had sex in what used to be a dukes bedroom, on the wide dining room even against what you found out was a very very old painting. 

Even when he takes you to Paris he continues to act possessive of you- kissing you on the neck in public- something he’d never done before, pinching your ass in your short skirt.  

He even drags you into a back alley at one point in time, you’ve always loved how adventurous he was with your sex life, and married life has not changed that one bit- if anything it’s only made it hotter. 

He takes you shopping in Paris’s garment district loving the fancy French lingerie so much that he nearly buys have the store. 

He takes treating you as a princess really seriously, by making sure room service is ready when you wake up, and Makes sure every hotel puts roses on each bed. 

you put a love lock on the love bridge togeather. 

You go to the top of the Eiffel tower and see Paris at night time, walking through the streets all giggly and drunk after dinner, 

He takes you to the Paris opera house and even takes you on a special behind the scenes tour. 

Your honeymoon was just about spending time together- about you having him all to yourself, and as your prince and husband; Jimin was delighted to oblige you

Taehyung 

The two of you decide to take a mini trip around California for two weeks, going to see the redwood forest but also content to spend most of your time in San Francisco and la. 

After a day of traveling after your wedding you and Taehyung hole up in this nice but generic hotel when you’ve got week long reservations at a Sonoma vineyard. 

And Tae pulls you close to him while he sits on the edge of the bed, intent on just holding you while he falls asleep- tired from a day of traveling- but he’s woken from dozing when you softly whisper that you have a little surprise for him. 

“I talked to the doctor a few weeks ago… she took me off my birth control…” 

And he sort of looks up at you with this dumbfounded look, suddenly more awake then he’s been and years, and you’re trying to conceal your small but shining smile.

Tae’s been bugging you about kids since forever, but you’d always said you weren’t ready. He touches your face softly and reverently, you can see that you’ve almost reduced him to tears. 

Fingers skim across your stomach as he looks up at you with eyes full of wonder and says with his famous boxy smile “let's make a baby.”

Taehyung makes love to you and fucks you every single way over the course of your honeymoon.

Groaning like a porn star every single time he cums inside of you. You even laugh and tease him over his new kink because you swear he’s never cum that hard before. 

“I didn’t even know I liked it to be honest!” he says, blushing harder than he has in years. But your teasing is all in good fun. Teahyung shows you that Making a baby can be very very kinky and very very fun.  

“Beg for it, Darling,”

You spend a few nights in a little Sonoma vineyard trying all the best wines. And spending half the day in and out of bed- Taehyung hasn’t become any less insatiable. 

He doesn’t stop even after you remind him that it will probably take your body a little while to adjust to the absence of hormones.

In the end, he try’s so hard to get you pregnant that he forgets about having fun on the honeymoon all together, though in his mind it was still an amazing time. 

at night he brushes his hands over your (still flat) stomach pouting and saying, “I just want to start a family with you already”

Jungkook 

Your Engagement might have been a little bit rushed, seeing as Jeon Jungkook had accidentally knocked you up the one time you didn’t use a condom. 

But he knows that he could never love anyone else the way he loves you, you and your little baby bump. 

He spends your entire plane flight talking about how cute your bump looked in your dress, you’re only 4 months along- really just starting to show in any significant way.

Jungkook had popped the question to you the second you’d told him. 

Sure you were young, but he knows that he wants this with you. He wouldn’t want it any other way. 

The first few days of your honeymoon are unexpectedly chaste, the two of you decide to go to Japan together, mostly because of how close it is (Jungkook didn’t want to put you under the stress of a long flight) 

You guys have managed to time it perfectly to see the rolling hills of flowers that sit below mount Fuji 

You spend the days with him, walking among the flower paths, taking the sky tram to the base on the mountain, and visiting some of the temples. 

But a few days in- you can sense he’s getting restless, 

His hands linger on you when you go to the local hot springs, his hands grabbing at every inch of you under the hot water, but he never makes the moves you want him too. 

His hand hovers on your knee while you’re out at dinner trailing close enough to the middle of your thigh that it makes you squirm. 

You eventually ask him what’s wrong and he backs you slowly up against the door of your hotel room, his forehead rested against yours as he presses a hungry kiss against you, his stomach brushing your pump as your back hits the door softly. 

“I want to make love to you for the first time as your husband, do you think its ok? You know for the baby?” his eyes flicker down to your stomach, he looks so unsure

“Of course! I’m surprised you didn’t ask sooner- I thought that- that you didn’t…like me like this.” Your insecurities feel silly now that you say them out loud to him, his eyes go wide as he almost jumps to say “God no honey you’re absolutely gorgeous- I’d say even more now!”

His hands brush over your swollen breasts as he lies you down on the hotel bed, 

“you’re so beautiful like this, of course, I want to-“ he breaks off in a groan. Nipping at the skin exposed by the deep v of your dress “I’m so lucky.” He pants out. 

Let's just say your daughter, who was born 5 months later- was the first of many children you had.

Unnatural Selection: What Time Lords, Changelings, and Mickey Mouse have in Common

Question: If changelings can choose their forms at will, why in the world would they choose to look like technicolor moose-bugs?

(King of the moose-bugs)

The answer to that may have its roots entangled with several other natural and social phenomena. Take, for example, Mickey Mouse. In his earliest days, he was-- well, mouse-shaped. To an extent, he still is. However, in the many years since his genesis, the cheeks have grown chubbier. He's put on some kid gloves. He has grown shorter and a little wider. In essence, he has been made to more closely resemble a human infant. This is the effect of anthropomorphism; the more human something seems, the more we can relate to it. For the purposes of this argument, we will ignore the uncanny valley. But really, from Aesop's Fables to My Little Pony, creatures that appear more humanoid appeal to us much more.

There are real-life examples of this as well. For instance, most mammal infants cry at roughly the same frequency. So if a kitten is lost in the woods, it hopes that its cries will summon a) its own mother, b) another cat, or c) like maybe a lynx or something.

Time Lords may have made use of this principle. Why do they appear humanoid when they could be great big multidimensional squids? Because they don't want to freak aliens out, and for some reason they really wanted to appeal to the bipeds. There's another theory that Rassilon attempted to wipe out all non-bipedal sapients in the early days of Gallifrey, but... well, if he tried, I don't know that it worked. The number of times the Doctor has faced talking dogs, for instance, is evidence to the contrary.

(Can you spot all three differences?)

So, why did the changelings switch to the bright color scheme and cute forms? After all, they don't need to look like anything, per se. When they transform into something, they gain all the abilities that something has, as evidenced by Ocellus's ability to breathe underwater while changed into a seapony to save Yona from drowning. This is quite important because I'd always sort of assumed it was all just a very good illusion. Apparently not. Back to the point, though, why the change?

(Either changelings can alter their biology at will, or Ocellus is very good at hiding SCUBA gear.)

Answer: To appeal to the ponies and most of the rest of the world. They are colorful, as ponies are colorful. They have hooves and two eyes and a muzzle, as ponies do. As, indeed, do the hippocampi. Some of these qualities are also shared with the donkeys, the zebras, and to some extent the minotaurs and griffons and dragons. And what happens when we encounter a being that appears closer to how we are ourselves? We are more likely to relate to it, perhaps. That may be why puppies are a more popular pet than snakes, and why the Doctor is so fond of Earth; they can relate to and be related to by those around them.

[asktailikku]

While I know that Thanksgiving is nearly a week and a half away, my local radio stations have decided to take the opportunity to play Christmas songs, with the big offender being FM 93.9 WLIT.

But rather than rant about how they are jumping the gun, I would like to take this opportunity to talk about two Disney holiday classics released on VHS and DVD on the this very day, five years apart from each other (eventually appearing on a 2-movie Blu-Ray), Mickey’s Once and Twice Upon a Christmas.

Please note that Mickey does not have such a candle in the film

Each of these films are a collection of stories starring Mickey and the gang, each dealing with the holiday hustle and bustle as well as the good warm feelings that make us feel merry.  The first one contains three stories while the second has five.

The first segment in Once Upon a Christmas is Donald Duck – Stuck on Christmas.  Despite his name being in the title, the story actually focusses on Huey, Dewey, and Louie.  As they spend Christmas Day, they are shocked to see it go by so quickly and wish upon the Evening Star for it to be Christmas every day.

I should bring up that the original “Christmas Every Day” story from 1892 was more of a what if scenario as if the year continued as normal, but every day was Christmas.  On paper this sounded like a good idea, to have it celebrated every day turns out to be a terrible idea as it ends up drying up the proper resources for Christmas.  By July in the story, people are more focussed on Christmas than they are the 4th of July.  And by autumn, people giving presents go from “Here you go, pal” to “Take this and f**k off!”  As it turned out, the endless Christmas celebration was nothing more than a dream.

Instead, the story borrows more from Groundhog Day starring Bill Murray.  In the film, Bill is stuck in a time loop that haunts him for what seems like centuries, waking up every morning on 2/2/1993.  Only until he undergoes some serious character development does he escape the loop.  In the Nephews’ case, this decades long loop serves as a punishment for them as they do not know the true meaning of Christmas.

It gets to a point where the boys have everything down and in what order, as follows:

Wake up

Open presents

Donald freaks out, drops breakfast on himself

Daisy, Scrooge, and “Aunt Gertie” (her only appearance) arrive

Go sledding

Eat dinner

Sing carols

Go to bed at 10:00 PM

Repeat the next day

Towards the end of the loops, the boys decide to spice things up, similar to Bill’s suicidal loops in the film.  First they ice bomb Chip’n’Dale as their Christmas morning reminder of them playing train was getting annoying.  Then they sent their RC car and plane after Donald before he sets foot in the living room.  When Gerty arrives for kisses, the boys arrive in scuba gear.  By dinner, the roasted turkey has been replaced with a live one, ticking Donald off, and wrecking the piano, cancelling carols.  After the turkey chase, the turkey ends up going up the chimney and in Santa’s outfit. It’s not so much the appearance of the turkey that’s hilarious, it’s the implication that Santa knew that the day was on repeat.  In an attempt to save face, the boys attempt to leave with their sleds, but then read the card that was attatched to one of them, a poem written by Scrooge about the true meaning of Christmas.  The next loop can be seen as something similar to Bill’s philanthropist loops in the film.

In this loop, the nephews use the Junior Woodchucks Guidebook to convert the sleds into a gift for Donald.  When morning comes, they give a bag of nuts to Chip’n’Dale.  They then make Donald breakfast and tell him that they need to wait until the family arrives.  By dinnertime, they eat ham instead of turkey, with the turkey eating with them.  The nephews then reveal their gift to Donald: a snowboat.  The loop ends with Donald and Daisy kissing under the mistletoe.

The next morning turns out to be Boxing Day as Donald wants to give his gift a try, only for it to fall apart as he goes down the hill.

The next segment is A Very Goofy Christmas, which is an original story with some elements of Miracle of 33rd Street and “Yes Virginia, There is a Santa Claus”.  Goofy and Max (in his very last appearance as a child) are writing letters to Santa and shoveling snow from their driveway and sidewalk.  Pete arrives and insists that “an old guy in a red suit cruising the whole world in one night using reindeer that fly” is practically impossible.  Despite this, Goofy wants to help his son beleive in Christmas magic and the spirit of Old St. Nick, as they have a Christmas Eve dinner with a neighboring poor family.  Dinner goes without a hitch, but then when Goofy tries to act as a department store Santa, things go haywire as Max feels betrayed.

Goofy decides that in order to cheer his son up, not just with Old Stuffed Bear, he’ll prove that Santa exists that night even if he has to stand out in the cold.  After two false alarms (a pug in jingle bells and Big Time Beagle attempting to rob from Pete), Goofy is the one that begins to doubt Santa’s existence and Max is the one that is willing to cheer him up, dressing as Santa like earlier that evening.  As Goofy follows his son up the chimney, they see Santa flying by and dropping Max’s gift into their hands.  Plus some well deserved Karma for Pete.  Max then decides to share his gift with one of the poor kids.

The final segment is a retelling of O. Henry’s classic tale of The Gift of the Magi.  In this version, Mickey has a harmonica without a case and Minnie has a pocket watch.  Both of them have the intention of getting a gift to compliment their treasure, a chain for the watch and a case for the harmonica.  Mickey’s job at Crazy Pete’s at first seems to be enough to get him the chain, but then when he helps a poor family with a smaller tree rather than a 10-ft Nova Scotia pine that Pete was trying to force upon them, Mickey’s paycheck is confiscated, but needless to say, karma bites Pete again as he accidentally sets his ten-footers ablaze.

On Minnie’s end, her job at Mortimer’s only ended with her getting a fruitcake from her tightwad of a boss (and this was the same Mortimer that has attempted being a casanova time and again, even if it means humiliating Mickey).  Back to Mickey, he participates in a toy drive held in the park to tide over until the Firehouse Five return from putting out the blaze at Crazy Pete’s.  The firecheif compliments Mickey’s harmonica skills and that its worth its weight in gold.  This gives Mickey the idea to trade his harmonica to get the chain.  With the chain in hand, Mickey and Minnie decide to open gifts, only to learn that they traded their treasures to get the other’s gift.

In my head canon, they receive a surprise visitor, the shopkeeper who gives them their original treasures back, claiming them to be new presents altogether.  This is partially based on versions of the story where the shopkeeper is the main character and oversees the exchanges between treasures and gifts, as seen on an episode of Sesame Street with Gordon playing this to Ernie and Bert.

The movie ends with Mickey and the gang singing a medley of carols (Jingle Bells, Deck the Halls, We Wish You a Merry Christmas).

The first segment on the second movie, now done in CG, is “Belles on Ice”.  This segment was partially inspired by Michelle Kwan’s performance at the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics and her performance as Mulan in “Reflections on Ice”.  The plot involves Minnie and Daisy having a figure skating duel that escalates out of control, with the two of them realizing that their egos got the best of them.  Original concepts for the segment included a parade float contest, a store window display competition and a cooking show bake-off.

The next segment is “Christmas: Impossible”  The segment begins with Scrooge having Donald, Daisy, and the Nephews over at his mansion (with its own zip-code) to celebrate the holidays.  On Christmas Eve, the nephews cause a ruckus, which leads to Scrooge talking to them about cleaning up their act if they ever want to get on Santa’s Nice List, of which he is not.

I should bring up that there was one thing he always wnated from Santa but never got: a set of bagpipes.

A little problem with that Mr. McDee, you made yourself a set before you emigrated from Scotland to America and even used it against Ma Beagle.  And of course these pipes predate the Number One Dime.

Anyways, with this plothole out of the way.

The nephews decide that the best way to get on the nice list is to head to Santa’s Workshop at the North Pole and write their names on it.  After finding the list room locked and getting the key from Santa’s office (the original script called for an ice cave with a hungry polar bear swimming about), they are about to head in there and set things right for themselves when they lose the key in a pile of fake keys belonging to a key themed toy

In when brainstorming ideas about the toy in question, the animators pitched at least ten ideas, nine of which are seen above.  My personal favorites being Key-to-My-Heart Kate, Dog Pound Pals, and Who-Dini the Owl.  The winner of the contest was Jailbreak Bob only because of Jeff Bennet’s demo reel as him (“Lemme out, see?”) proved to be the coolest.

One thing leads to another as the boys accidentally gum up the progress made by the elves, almost ruining Christmas, with the elves comparing this to the “Sleigh Crash of ’64”.  The nephews decide to help fix this mess and escape back to the list room, keyless (Santa took it back having assumed to have lost it), but end up sneaking into the list room behind the janitor.

Pulling up Duckburg on the monitors, they find that they are indeed not on the list, but instead write Scrooge’s name on there.  The next morning, they find tons of presents for them, including a Jailbreak Bob (“Be good this year, see?  And have a Merry Christmas!”), the Idiot’s Guide to Manners, and a new set of bagpipes for Scrooge, ending the segment with Santa sending a letter saying that “there’s always room on the Nice List for those who think of other first,” and Scrooge playing Deck the Halls on his new pipes, very badly.

The third segment is more or less a montage called “Christmas Maximus”.  This more or less follows Max (now in his 20’s) and his new girlfriend Mona, spending the holidays at Goofy’s after leaving from college, with Goofy trying hard not to embarass Max, and eventually strengthening the bond between the two of them.  In a rather interesting move, Mona is voiced by Kellie Martin, who voiced Roxanne in the original Goofy Movie.

Next is Donald’s Gift, and I can tell you one thing from listening to “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” over and over again.

Donald is not amused.  All he wants is some peace and quiet and a piping cup of hot chocolate.  Daisy and the nephes arrive to take them shopping at Mousy’s, but Donald doesn’t want any of it.  But he is forced to regardless.

Donald finds a cocoa stand and gets a big cup of it.  This is where things get wierd as every noise he hears throughout the department store is in sync to “We Wish You a Merry Christmas”, culminating in him ending up in the black-lit display window playing the same song.  In his rage, he destroys it but is shamed upon by his family and thrown out by security (“Fer cryin’ out loud, where’s yer Christmas spirit!”)

Trudging home, Donald comes across an uncoordinated group of carollers trying to sing the song.  Donald takes over conducting and together, they produce a beautiful harmony that draws in all the townsfolk.  Soon the crowd draws in Daisy and the boys, who see Donald finally showing some Christmas spirit. Donald apologizes and joins in on the singing, making sure to sing from his heart.

The final segment is Mickey’s Doggone Christmas.  In this story, Mickey is trying to set up a party with Pluto, but Pluto accidentally causes a powersurge which not only ruins the set up that Mickey had, but gets him sent to the dog house.  Mickey then heads out on his own to fix the damage in time for the party, all while dealing with a crazy snowplow truck.  Pluto decides that enough is enough and runs away, taking the next train behind his backyard.

The train ends up taking Pluto to the North Pole, where he sees Santa’s reindeer training for the big night.  The main two deer of the special are Dunder and Blitzen (voiced by Jeff Bennet and Jim Cummings respectively).  As Pluto is not wearing his collar, Dunder decides to adopt him as “Murray,” as in “Murry Christmas” *faceplam*

Mickey returns home to find that Pluto ran off and calls his friends to rally a search party.  “Murray” meanwhile is hacing fun with the team, but soon feels homesick.  Mickey meanwhile has been handing out fliers of his missing bloodhound, and soon takes his request up with a mall Santa, revealed to be the real deal and from “Christmas:  Impossible”.  Santa tells Dunder and Blitzen that Pluto is homesick, and is prepared to take him back to Mickey.

The movie ends with Mickey and Pluto reunited as the gang arrives in the snowplow truck.  As it happened, when Minnie heard Mickey’s call, she made calls to the rest of the gang, with Scrooge buying a snowplow company to aid in the search, Goofy happened to be the running gage snowplow.  All together, they sing the medley from the previous film as the film comes to a close.  This ending seems to imply that this was going to be the last part of an ongoing story where Mickey and Pluto were setting up for the party and each decoration brought up a different memory, leading into the stories.  This would also help explain why the “Angry Man” appears in each segment, as well as the elves and Dunder mentioning the Sleigh Crash of ’64.

All in all, despite what Rotten Tomatoes may think, these two movies are the perfect holiday experience for fans old and new as well as friends and family alike.

Mickey’s Nth Upon a Christmas While I know that Thanksgiving is nearly a week and a half away, my local radio stations have decided to take the opportunity to play Christmas songs, with the big offender being FM 93.9 WLIT.

“A couple who can travel together, can stay together.”

You’ll hear some variation of this statement a number of times when you start to embark on adventures with your significant other. It’s pretty cliche, but it does make sense.

Going on adventures as a couple often requires you to tap in various dimensions of your relationship. You’re so far out of your comfort zones that it’s needed. You have to compromise, think outside the box, be patient and have each others’ backs. Why? Traveling can get a little crazy. You get lost (more than once), you’re often surrounded by people who don’t speak the same language, you’re jet lagged, you’re both completely unfamiliar with your surroundings and you’re trying to fit a lifetime’s worth of experiences into a week or two. But, it’s also exhilarating, refreshing and can completely overwhelm you with immense gratitude and appreciation for this world. All of those emotions together are an experience unlike any other.

Traveling is always surprising, but that’s what makes it so phenomenally special. That’s also why experiencing it with someone you really care about makes the journey even more incredible. You meet amazing people together, you taste new foods, you marvel at breath-taking sites, you analyze artistic masterpieces and you let the wonders of this world change you, and change your hearts.

The8: Hong Kong. Minghao would take you to the best shopping districts, and make you try only the best food Hong Kong has to offer. You’d both go exploring at night most of the time because of the beautiful city lights and the calmer atmosphere rather than busy daytime.

Seungkwan: Jeju Island, Korea. Seungkwan would take you to his hometown, hands down. He’d take you to all his favorite childhood places, and to all the best restaurants he knows. He’d take you to the most beautiful places, and take pictures of the two of you in front of a beautiful view. Your honeymoon would be filled with laughs, kisses, and unforgettable memories.

Vernon: New York City, New York. Hansol would want to take you to the city that never sleeps. He’d take you to Broadway shows, and take walks in Central Park with you. He’d want to explore every part of New York City with you by his side.

Dino: Disney Land, California. Chan would definitely want to take you somewhere fun that would spark childhood memories for the two of you. He’d want to go on every ride with you, sing to every Disney song that comes on, and be comfortable being his childish and playful self around the person he loves with all his heart. He’d take you to the place where dreams come true.

thank you for your request!! ^^

@imnotacommittee replied to your post (BLR Chapter 4, Part 1) and said: 

Nellie’s behavior is puzzling. I love how Sarah and Alec forget all about it as they get all flustered with transfiguration essay talk.

She’s definitely up to something! Sarah and Alec are adorable, tentatively flirting and blushing left, right and centre!

@imnotacommittee replied to your post (Slow Down) and said: 

Donna’s screams sound the same!!! Poor Doctor, learning to interpret Donna’s reactions. I don’t have a feeling he minds. This is so much fun, Becca!

I may or may not have been inspired by my parent’s coming running to find out what was wrong when Harry Potter and the Cursed Child was announced because I squealed so loud they thought someone had broken in…

Poor Donna as well! She was just excited she might get a chance to practice her scuba diving, but silly Spaceman is too overprotective! She never said she didn’t secretly love that he cares so much though.

@fangjy reblogged your post (Alec and Sarah snuggles) and added:

Aww. Alec and Sarah cuddles are probably the best. This is very sweet.

I kind of want to be in an Alec/Sarah cuddle. Thank you, Mickey!

vacation days - epcot

I hadn't been to Epcot since I was... under 10 years old, I think? So my memories were vague and I didn't know about any of the new stuff. Dad went there a few years back, so this time it was him showing me around!

We went during the Festival of the Arts, so there were a lot of booths/tents to sell Disney artwork all over. There was even a mural everyone could help paint.

After catching the Nemo ride (Marlin sounded nothing like his original voice actor), we had fun in the aquarium. At first, the manatee tank was empty, so I assumed they were probably going to be placed in there at another day. So we wandered with the seahorses and dolphins and turtles. Then I turned my head and... MANATEEEEEEEEEES. I lost my GODDAMN MIND and cried like a baby. You know that video of Kristen Bell crying because she was so happy to meet sloths? That was me.

Had fun pointing out all the Hidden Mickeys!

In "The Lands", we went on an 'guilt trip boat ride' as Dad called it XD But it was interesting to learn how they grow their own food/raise their own fish to give to their own restaurants.

Saw the little Lion King movie with even more guilt trips... although they may need to update it a smidgen, since in one of the montages you can clearly see an "Earth Day 1990" sign XD

I thought I'd be afraid of Soarin', since I'm scared of heights, but I was A-O-K, and it was a beautiful experience.

Spaceship Earth, it was amusing how dad could guess who/what the anamatronics were/doing before the narrator could say.

Journey Into Imagination with Figment. While I'll always have a soft spot for the original ride, this does have its own charm.

Dad really enjoyed O Canada!

Loved The Three Caballeros ride, although Dad was very confused about it. WHY WOULDN'T YOU SELL PANCHITO MERCHANDISE IN THE MEXICAN PAVILION?! I WANT PANCHITOOO

Ate in France. Their "slushie" is really more of a "frozen frostee" XD

An artist was painting Mickey while dancing to music like Lady Gaga's Applause. I tried to record it but my phone crashed.

Japanese pavilion was my favorite, naturally. Hunted down Sailor Jupiter merch, surprised to only find one thing of her! But I grabbed it and she's mine. Took pictures of all the Totoro stuff because the family loves totoro.

Watched Taiko Drummers!

There was someone skywriting. Dad thought it was about Trump (After which I snapped at him I SAID NO TALKING ABOUT TRUMP WHILE IN FLORIDA, THAT WAS MY ONE RULE, I WANT AN ESCAPE FROM REALITY) but it turned out to be about Jesus. Weird.

Visited all the Christmas shops in Mom's stead.

Visited manatees again. I LOVE THEM. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.

Ate at the Coral Reef, delicious food! And we had women who were scuba diving wave at us, since we had a table right next to the tanks! GIANT manta rays!

Kicked Dad's butt at putting a skeleton together.

watched Chinese acrobats! The basketball girl seemed to mess up a few times, but hell, it's not like I'd be any better XD

Dad fell asleep during the American Adventure, even though it was the one thing he wanted to see (Though he admitted afterwards it was pretty dull.) To me, they seemed to kinda... skip over the fact we stole the land from Native Americans, save for one speech by Sitting Bull. But the hilarious thing was at the end, there was this montage of 'great americans', which oddly included some clearly NOT american people (Like Princess Diana!) and guys who... should probably be edited out (Lance Armstrong, Tiger Woods, etc)

Found a keychain with my name spelled correctly AT LAST

Really wanted to buy this giant Hipster Mickey but there was no way it was gunna fit in my suitcase or purse.

Saw Mickey and Minnie! since I brought Kimono!Minnie, I told Mickey that he was my second favorite mouse, with Minnie as my first, but "You gotta admit, she's BOTH our favorites, right?" Mickey agreed, and blew Minnie a kiss! As for Minnie, I told her I picked the plush and my outfit so we'd all color coordinate. She compared all our outfits!

And that was day two!
