Character biographies part 1.5 + art!

DUNCAN

Name: Duncan

Likes: Wild events.

Dislikes: His given daily schedule and responsibilities.

Known for: Being the only one not interested in any sort of justice within his family.

Why TDI?: To get something new and different out of life.

Duncan comes from a long line of cops. His dad is a cop. His mom is a cop. His uncle, aunt, grandma, and cousins are cops. Unlike them, however, Duncan isn't that interested in that end of the spectrum; he'd rather get some enjoyment, and he's the type who probably shouldn't be trusted with any sort of authority anyways. So Duncan's parents decided to just throw random hobbies at him to keep him from doing anything too mischievous, such as but not limited to: fashion, knitting, and sewing. He's already gotten some warnings, which his mom had to talk out. He's also been put into boarding school after several school hops and pretty much well indulged by his dad to keep him from screwing up their family line reputation. Duncan doesn't necessarily care enough to get the full learning experience from boarding school, though, in his words, he'd rather do an "innovative, creative" break in to show his artistic skills than go through another art class. He also has street smarts and isn't afraid to use them. Despite his cocky nature, the therapists who have worked with Duncan will say he has potential and wants to do good for the world; it just isn't shown exactly through his exterior. When Duncan isn't being put through excessive work or lectures, he looks for ways to curb his boredom, like signing up for Total Drama Island. Duncan figured it couldn't be much worse than a day at boarding school. and, who knows, it could be fun to mess around there. It's not like he's doing anything else this summer.

GWEN

Name: Gwen

Likes: Hosting mold breaking parties from the norm with her little brother.

Dislikes: Following trends.

Known for: Putting beef bouillon cubes in the Community Pool

Why TDI?: To have a good time and the money would really help her mom.

The daughter of a single mom, Gwen was a latchkey kid who grew up taking care of her brother. That's cool with Gwen, because she likes helping out her mom and has tons of fun with her brother, too.

Like the time they put a bunch of beef bouillon cubes into the community pool. (At least the neighborhood dogs were happy!)

The only other thing that Gwen is REALLY passionate about is organizing parties. She believes they can be a substantial form of self-expression; she's been told plenty of her uniqueness for it, and she herself hopes to make the most norm-breaking party ever gain traction without having to go by a single trend for it. One day after all, the last thing she'd do is follow a trend. Maybe a Trent, but never a trend. (wink wink!) Although she's pretty popular for her parties, she is the loner at school. At the same time, she isn’t seen much with others; she spends most of her time instead watching and generating new ideas. But ask someone, and they will say that for a loner, she is a pretty rad one.

Gwen heard about total drama from her brother, and after looking into it, she decided it's just what she'd be looking for in an island retreat. Activities, fun, and relaxation.

Plus, if she wins the $100,000, it would sure make life easier for her mom. Gwen may seem tough as nails on the outside, but when it comes to her family, she's as soft as... well, a marshmallow.

GEOFF

Name: Geoff

Likes: Art, camping, and hanging out at the beach.

Dislikes: Parties that get too wild and shallow superficial people.

Known for: Always drawing in his free time at school.

Why TDI?: A experience different from the typical partying, if not that there’s camping.

Geoff grew up in a party town on the west coast. Spring break, long weekends, summertime—people came from all around to party in his town. So it's not a surprise due to the fact that Geoff isn’t exactly the biggest partygoer; he ended up coming across as an odd one out, or just quite literally an outcast. Now Geoff has seen, at a young age, how to really party. REALLY. He's the oldest of five brothers, but being the oldest also leads to the most responsibilities. Usually, when a party is over, he takes on the job of cleaning up the mess. (One time, almost the entire floor was flooded with fruit punch!) Now he doesn't hold any grudge against his brothers or parents for this, though; it is his duty as the eldest, but he isn't exactly happy about it either. And he thinks that at times the parties start to become too repetitive and similar. Even if Geoff says he hates the idea of doing parties entirely, thanks to his bohemian parents (who met, married, and conceived Geoff on a beach), Geoff still has chillaxin' party-hearty DNA in his blood, even if not apparent. He's the star quarterback on his high school football team, and they’ve scored plenty of wins, but the thing that truly highlights Geoff is his passion for art. A fair share of the cool kids are pretty interested in his art and hang out with him for it. He couldn’t care less about if they were “cool” or not, though; he’d hang out with anyone regardless of where they lie. Geoff's goal is to take a bit out of life and chew it until there's nothing left but seeds that he can scatter into the wind to start with a canvas all over again. His eventual plan is to become a professional artist who brings emotion and laughs with his works. He thinks that would be the most awesome career ever. He can't even imagine how great that would be, and he would definitely ace it, too. He wants to be able to make people feel together. Geoff also enjoys spending time at the beach or in the woods on weekends and sketching on his pad. Now, being real about it, Geoff wasn't exactly expecting to be on Total Drama Island this year; his brothers just thought he totally should give the show a try, so eventually he gave in and auditioned. He was surprised to actually be picked though he didn't actually expect to be spending his summer on a reality TV show. He doesn't mind too much, though; it might be fun.

BRIDGETTE

Name: Bridgette

Likes: Strummin’ on her ukulele

Dislikes: People who aren't kind to Mother Earth

Known For: Her sense of humor and creativity

Why TDI?: To spread the message of cosmic love through music.

Bridgette grew up in a small west coast town, and it shows. She’s always enjoyed the simple things, from the rhythm of a waterfall down to the melody of a bird. She’s an expert at riding bikes too; she first learned to ride one before she could even walk! When she’s just on a stroll, though, she's kind of klutzy. She's done her fair share of lead-outs. (And they were all on foot!) Luckily, she's also got a healing touch. Bridgette's strongest attributes are her sense of humor and her creativity. She's a pretty laid-back, go-with-the-flow girl, and her best friend is her mom. They both love flowers, crystals, and everything else that is part of Mother Nature's beautiful bounty. Bridgette's mom is proud of her not only because she's a giving person, but also because she's also on the honor roll at school. She’s also considered pretty cool for her ukulele-playing skills. People will say she can play it in a unique way you don’t see every day. Bridgette signed up for Total Drama Island because she always tries to open herself up to new opportunities. She's already biked off a hill in Peru, helped build houses in a third-world country, and spent a summer making rugs in a monastery in Nepal. Bridgette's goal is to keep the vibe flowing in a good way. That's why she always uses her ability to make soothing music to raise money for charities. She can be seen on social media or performing on the street, but no matter what, she makes sure she stores the money to be put to good use for good causes. Bridgette hopes that her time on Total Drama Island will spread the message of music to communicate nature and cosmic love to a larger audience.

TRENT

Name: Trent

Likes: Collecting seashells as well as everything else the shore has to offer… in pairs of nine.

Dislikes: His dad telling him to become an accountant.

Known For: Being a cool guy.

Why TDI?: It sounded like a good way to spend the summer

Trent is a guy who is very interested in the ocean and he believes it has spiritual secrets if you look deep enough. That’s why since he could barely walk he’s been exploring the shore. In fact He’s proud to call himself the most knowledgeable kid concerning the local beaches. Eventually, Trent's goal is to have his own full fledged rockin’ artifact collection. Trent is also peculiarly good at surfing in edition to that all. Trent has never gone out of his way to "get" people to like him. He'd just rather chill and get a good view of everything going on in the world. He's a straight shooter who tells it like it is. He would never say he's the "cool guy." Trent is the kind of guy who gets girls and has the other guys admiring him. He's just too likable to hate. His surfing and scavenging skills seal his status as one cool compadre. In his junior high graduating class he was voted as "Most Mysterious and Irresistible." (It was later discovered that the Voting Committee was comprised completely of girls, all of whom dated Trent.) Despite his good looks and easy going matter, Trent is smarter than he's given credit for. Though his grades don't reflect it, his IQ is well above anyone's expectations, including his own. His Dad wished he would follow in his footsteps and become an accountant, to which Trent has four words... NOT - IN - THIS - LIFETIME! Trent auditioned for Total Drama Island because it sounded like a cool way to spend the summer...and $100,000 would make a nice funding for that scuba gear and other

Footnote: Wow, this was harder than it should’ve been for me to make… if I had to say out of all of them here, Geoff took the longest to come up with. Even then though I feel like I could do better tried as hard as I could though for right now anyways, anddd I’m hoping to not take as long with future batches. Also I’ll definitely draw very cool shots for Tyler, Courtney, and Lindsay later on the future as well even if I already did their biographies.🤩

Additional Note: Part of the Monkey Talk series and contains small references to other fics but it can be read by itself.

----

Flying back home on his nimbus always gave MK an unfortunate amount of thinking time and today, in particular, his thoughts were threatening to spiral.

He'd been forced to come to terms with a lot of earth shattering revelations recently - a lot of them to do with monkeys in one form or another - and he thought he deserved a pat on the back for how well he'd, sort of, handled them all overall.

Sure, maybe he still wasn't quite there with the whole "monkey form" thing yet but he was working on it!

The point was though that he'd dealt with much bigger bombshells than the one he was currently facing and he couldn't understand why this one was so difficult to accept in comparison.

But for as long as he could remember it had simply been one of the fundamental, universal truths - the sky was blue, water was wet and Pigsy and Mr. Tang were married in all but name.

He could admit that he had never really given much thought to Pigsy's love life but then why would he? What was there to think about? He and Mr. Tang had a happy and steadfast relationship and that was all there was to it.

That's what he'd always believed at least, but an off-handed comment had revealed that that apparently wasn't the case at all!

Or well, it sort of wasn't the case?

Mei had confidently declared what they had must be a "QPR" instead and while that sounded pretty cool, it was the reassurance that they had some sort of special relationship that was stopping him from just curling in a ball and crying for reasons he couldn't really understand.

It would be different if he'd learnt that Pigsy and Mr. Tang were "breaking up", then he could have been justifiably distraught at his impending status as a child of divorce, but literally nothing had changed about their relationship.

It felt like it had changed everything though, compounding the ever lurking fear that everything he knew was wrong. And it was one thing to have doubts about who he was but to have doubts about who Pigsy was on top of that?

He couldn't handle it.

Pigsy and Pigsy's Noodles were literally the only two constants of his life and he needed them to stay that way.

He wouldn't be able to keep it together otherwise.

His home had to be there waiting for him.

And it was, he desperately tried to reason with himself, it would be coming into view any second now and then he would find Pigsy downstairs, cooking in the restaurant, blissfully unaware of the small drama his relationship status had caused on the island today.

So what if Pigsy and Mr. Tang had a different label for their relationship than he thought they did? It didn't change anything between them and it definitely didn't change anything about him, Pigsy or his home.

See, there was Pigsy's Noodles now, exactly as he'd left it!

...

He frowned as he squinted at the roof.

Was that Pigsy sitting by the door?

Alright, that was a little unexpected but he must have just needed some fresh air! And why not the roof? It was probably a tiny bit more peaceful than standing out on the street after all. Yup, totally fine, no cause for alarm here.

And then he got close enough to see what Pigsy was doing.

Motivated by incredulous betrayal he jumped to his feet and urged his nimbus on faster, calling out Pigsy's name sharply.

Pigsy had enough time to jump to his own feet in alarm and look around wildy before he was slammed into in a puff of clouds. MK wasn't sure if it had been shock or instinct that had him immediately drop the cigarette in his hand upon impact but either way he was glad that it couldn't burn either of them as they tumbled gracelessly to the ground.

But it wasn't far enough away to save it from his wrath, and he wasted no time clambering up and stomping on the cigarette with extreme prejudice. If he'd been able to manage it without putting a hole through the building he would have used his eye lasers to vaporise it but as it was he just kicked it angrily away from him.

He redirected his glare at Pigsy, who returned it as he picked himself off the floor and rubbed at where his head had hit the concrete.

He didn't give him the chance to be the one to give a lecture, gesturing emphatically in the direction he'd kicked the cigarette as he needlessly accused, "You smoke!?"

Agitated, he began to pace as he ranted, "I can't believe this! The amount of times you lectured me about smoking! You told me that if I ever even thought about trying it you'd sell my signed Monkey King poster and use the money to go to Huāguǒ Land without me! And you made me look at all those horrifying pictures! I thought I was going to die if I so much as looked at a cigarette! And here you are-!"

Pigsy cut in, "Alright, I get it! I'm a hypocrite! You can stop!"

Incredulous, he responded, "Stop!? Oh, I don't think so! I was traumatised! And you-"

Pigsy hauled him forward by his t-shirt and all but growled in his face, "You think this is something I'm proud of? Hiding up here smoking? As if I don't feel bad enough - I don't need a fucking lecture from you on top of it!"

He recoiled at the smell of cigarettes on his breath and knocked his hand away as he took several steps back and retorted, "You're getting a lecture whether you like it or not! How long has this been going on?"

Pigsy didn't even get a chance to respond before MK stormed away to get a closer look at the spot where he'd been sitting. A loose brick that had been pulled out had caught his eye and upon closer inspection, it was clear that the hole behind it was being used to hide the ashtray and tobacco pouch currently lying beside it for the world to see.

The sight of it did nothing to calm him down and he whipped back around to yell again, "How long have you been hiding this?"

Pigsy threw his hands up, "What does it even matter? As if I'm going to be able to keep it up now! You and that fucking Golden Vision will make sure of that no doubt!"

Damn right, this wasn't going to be allowed to continue! As if Pigsy risking his life to save the world wasn't bad enough! He wasn't going to let something as pointless and stupid as smoking be what cut their time together short!

He wasn't nearly ready to back down however, "You're not getting off that easy! I want to know - how long has this been going on?"

Pigsy's temper was clearly a hair away from being ignited but he managed to respond through gritted teeth, "You want to know? Fine! I started when I was fourteen! Happy?"

His ears were ringing as his breathing started to pick up and he could feel his eyes burn as the reality of what that meant hit him.

He brought his hands to his eyes as he cried out, "Is everything I know a lie!?"

Pigsy sounded alarmed, "Wh-? MK, what are you-"

"First it was me and then it was you and Mr. Tang and now- and now you and-! Nothing is how it's supposed to be! You're not supposed to smoke! I'm not supposed to be a monkey! I- You-"

He felt a hand on his shoulder, "Ok, ok, slow down. C'mon, let's just sit down and talk about it, alright?"

He let Pigsy lead him to the wall next to the door and once he'd sat down, he curled his arms around his knees and buried his head against them, trying in vain to pull himself together. It was all for naught though, and the tears finally falling in earnest when Pigsy rubbed at his back.

"Let it out, kid."

It took a little while for him to calm down and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed as he wiped his eyes, "Sorry. That was so dumb. Crying over cigarettes."

Pigsy huffed as he leaned back against the wall, "Oh yeah, that's what you were upset about. C'mon, kid, that was obviously just the final straw, that had clearly been building up for a while."

He couldn't quite meet Pigsy's eyes as he half-admitted, "Maybe..." But he was quick to sit up straight and clarify, "But I am still upset about the smoking! Pigsy! It's so bad for you! Our lives are dangerous enough! You need to be on top form! You can't be hacking up a lung in the middle of a fight!"

Pigsy held his hands up, "Trust me, I know. And I've been trying to stop for the best part of two decades but I've actually been pretty successful - I hardly ever smoke these days, I swear. Just every once in a while if something stressful happens. And before you get into your head - no, just now had nothing to do with you."

Nervously he asked, "Then why were you smoking?"

Pigsy seemed to weigh his words, before he answered, "You didn't know them but I found out earlier that someone I used to know had passed away and... It was just a bit of a shock."

Whatever he had been expecting, it wasn't that and he felt like a heel for going off on him before he'd had the whole story. Sure, everything he'd said still stood but could he have picked a worse time?

Unsure of how to respond, he tried, "Oh. I- I'm sorry... Were they a friend...?"

Pigsy sighed, "Wouldn't call them that, no. Just someone I used to work with a long time ago. We hadn't really kept in touch so I'm not, y'know, devastated or anything but it did take me off guard."

He groaned and buried his head in his hands, "And then I came out of nowhere and tackled you to the ground before having a breakdown. I'm so sorry. I suck so bad."

Pigsy huffed a little as he rubbed at the lump on the back of his head, "Yeah, you got me good but let's just call it even. You couldn't have known and it's my own fault for keeping the smoking a secret. I always knew it would catch up to me sooner or later."

He glanced at the hole in the wall that had kept Pigsy's secret and asked, "Why did you hide it then?"

He raised an eyebrow, "What besides from not wanting to be a bad influence on you?" He then shrugged and admitted, "Your grandma hated me smoking as well. You think the lectures I gave you were bad? They had nothing on the shit she used to give me. It was just easier this way. And, like I said, it really wasn't often enough that it was hard to hide."

As unhappy as he was that Pigsy smoked, there was a guilty part of him that was glad he hadn't taken up the habit because of him - either before or after he'd picked up the staff. Although there was no way he hadn't contributed to Pigsy's need for a cigarette over the years.

He couldn't get over the fact that he'd never even suspected that he smoked. Was Pigsy just that good at hiding it or had he just been shockingly unobservant? He couldn't help but feel it was the latter given what else he'd been oblivious to growing up.

"Does Mr. Tang know?"

Pigsy looked a little confused by the question but he answered honestly, "Er, yeah, he knows. He's sat up here with me a couple of times. Never smoked himself though if that's what you're worried about?"

There was no part of him that believed Mr. Tang smoked, he probably wouldn't believe it even if he was stood smoking right in front of him, but he supposed it was nice to have it confirmed.

That wasn't the problem though.

"Why didn't you tell me you and Mr. Tang weren't dating?"

Pigsy stared at him blankly before slowly repeating, "Why didn't I tell you we weren't dating?"

He nodded, "Yeah! All my life I thought you two were, like, married and today I found out you aren't even dating! Why wouldn't you tell me that?"

Pigsy looked like he was doing his best not to have an aneurysm, and with a forced calm and patience he explained, "MK, people don't generally need to announce that they're not in a relationship when they've never been in one."

He had to concede that point but still he argued, "But you act like you're dating! Mei and Sandy couldn't believe it either!"

Pigsy's eye twitched, "Alright, how about you tell me exactly what happened on the island today?"

Taking a deep breath, he recounted the day, "Ok, so, Mei's cousin is having a baby, right? And Liu was super interested and was asking all these questions about her family, because she'd been reading all these books on family and childhood development and stuff like that recently. And that got us talking about how limited those books can be with, y'know, diversity and stuff so I mentioned how I was raised by you and grandma and how you're basically married to Mr. Tang. But then Mr. Tang was, like, all shocked? And then we started arguing about who would be the best man for both of you when you did get married and-"

Pigsy held up a hand to stop him, "Stop, go back. What exactly did Tang say?"

"Er... Well, first he said that you weren't married, then that you weren't dating and then that it was complicated and that you never gave it a label? Oh, and that you don't like men? And then Mei said you were in a QPR? Which is like a friendship/relationship combo thing, I think? Honestly, it sounds pretty neat! But not what I thought you two had going on, and not what he thought you had going on either by the sounds of it either, but-"

Pigsy held up his hand again, "Alright, I think that's enough. I've got the gist." He then groaned as he pinched the bridge of his nose, "Where do I even start...?"

A little too hopeful, he suggested, "By telling me that you've got a plan to propose to Mr. Tang?"

Pigsy pushed him over with a shove to his face, "Alright, let's get one thing straight right off the bat - I'm not getting married. To anyone. And no amount of money or torture could ever convince otherwise. You got that?"

He held up his hands as best he could from his awkward position on the floor, "Got it. Not happening. No weddings here."

He pushed himself as Pigsy sagged back against the wall and grumbled, "Marriage... Ugh. I can already see how that conversation is going to go..."

He then addressed MK, "Alright, look, Tang and I... Have something, alright? I don't know what it is but whatever it is, it works and we're both happy with it and that's all you need to know."

Technically, that was all he needed to know but it was still hard to believe that he'd been wrong about what their relationship was in the first place and for so long as well.

Reluctantly, he responded, "I guess..."

Pigsy eyed him curiously, "You're really that upset up over the fact we're not dating?"

"I mean, sort of? I just always thought you were together, like together-together, and it's really throwing me for a loop that you aren't. Like, how could I have missed that? Although, it couldn't have been obvious, right? I mean, Sandy and Mei..."

Pigsy looked like he was trying not to cringe and MK felt any faith he had left in his observation skills leave him, "How obvious was it?"

Pigsy rubbed at the back of his head, "Well, you have met a couple of Tang's boyfriends over the years..."

He buried his face in his hands, as he groaned, "No..."

Pigsy pat his back in commiseration, "It's not that bad. You didn't see them that often. It's not that surprising you don't remember them..."

His attempt to make him feel better wasn't working and while he felt stupid for not noticing, he also felt weirdly betrayed by the fact that Mr. Tang had dated other people.

He peaked an eye out between his fingers, "He's not dated anyone recently, has he?"

To his relief, Pigsy shook his head, "Nah, he hasn't for a good few years now."

And he was sure that aligned with an increase in physical affection he'd noticed between the two of them in the last couple of years - couch cuddles, sleepovers, those kinds of things. Not that that mattered but he'd be lying if he said it didn't make him feel a tiny bit better.

He pulled his hands away from his face and responded, "Well, that's something I guess. Would have been pretty bad not to have realised a member of my hero team was dating someone else, right?"

Pigsy just shrugged, "Don't see how it makes a difference but then I don't really get why this is bothering you so much in the first place."

He fidgeted with his hands for a long moment before deciding he wanted to at least try explaining it to him, "It's not so much that you two aren't dating that's the problem as much as it's the fact that I didn't notice? Like, it's another thing I was so sure about but it turns out that I got it totally wrong. And I just... I feel like I'm starting to doubt everything that I thought I knew and I can't help but feel that the answers were staring me in the face the whole time and I just missed them."

Pigsy seemed to give it some serious thought before he asked, "This is about your monkey form, isn't it?"

He curled in on himself slightly, "I mean, it's not just that but... Yeah, that's definitely the biggest thing that I got wrong."

Pigsy frowned at him, "You didn't get it "wrong" - there was no way you could have known you were anything but human."

He argued, "But how can I be sure of that? What if I just missed all the signs?"

Pigsy shook his head, "Because it wouldn't have just been you that would have missed them - I would've had to have missed them, and so would grandma and Tang and Mei and the school and everyone else. If there had been any hint that you had a secret monkey form then someone would have noticed. I would have noticed."

He'd never really considered that fact before but still he retorted, "But it's not like someone was with me every second of the day! I'm the only one that was there for all of it, I should have noticed."

Getting agitated, Pigsy responded, "Noticed what? What "signs" do you possibly think you could have missed? Were you randomly growing patches of fur or sporting a tail? Were you compelled to swing from the lights when I wasn't looking?"

Louder than he meant, he burst out, "I- I don't know! I don't know what the signs were but they had to have been there!"

"No, they don't! Because they weren't! Kid, I'm telling you there's no way you could have known but even if there had been "signs" it wouldn't have changed anything!"

Incredulous, he responded, "What!? Pigsy, it would have changed everything! I could have figured out what I am by now, I could have realised that I was meant to be the Monkey King's successor way sooner! I could have been training with him from the very beginning and then I would have actually been ready to save the world instead of bumbling through being a hero and making everything worse!"

Pigsy looked taken aback, "What are you talking about? "Making everything worse"? The world wouldn't still be here without everything you've done!"

"The world wouldn't have been in danger in the first place if it hadn't been for me! Spider Queen, the Lady Bone Demon, Azure - I gave them what they needed! Without me none of their plans would have worked!"

Pigsy looked at him like he'd grown an extra head, "You can't seriously think that? MK, those nutjobs would have found a way to make their plans work whether you had been there or not!"

He'd heard it all before a hundred times from Wukong, from Mei, from all of his friends to at least some degree but nothing they could say could drown out the Lady Bone Demon's final words or the Ink Demon's cruel taunts.

He shook his head, "But if I had been ready I could have stopped their plans before they even had a chance to try them! I would have been smarter, stronger and I could have kept you all safe!"

A hand gripped his shoulder, "MK, you can't think like this. What happened, happened and obsessing over the what-ifs will drive you crazy. And you have to remember that you did keep us all safe, you kept the whole world safe, and no-one is sitting around thinking you could have done a better job."

He'd been given a lot of "focus what you can change and not on what you can't" talks recently and he really was trying to take that advice to heart - it was why he spent every moment he could training for whatever came next - but he just couldn't shake the feeling he could have done better if he'd only known what he was.

He made himself small as he looked away and quietly admitted, "I know. But I just want all of this to make sense... Why did all of this start after I picked up the staff? No-one was trying to destroy the world before that. I just want to know who I am, what I am, and why I seem to be at the middle of all of this."

Pigsy took a deep breath, "I know, kid. And I wish I had answers for you but the only thing I know for sure is who you are and that's MK."

He made it sound so easy, as if what he was didn't change everything.

If he couldn't look at his monkey form in the mirror and recognise himself then how could Pigsy look at him and see his son?

The answer to that question had plagued him since he'd discovered his new form and he knew it would only continue to haunt him until he faced it head on.

So gathering all the courage he had, he looked Pigsy in the eye as he let his monkey form take hold. As steadily as he could, he asked, "You really look at me like this and still think I'm just MK?"

Pigsy didn't shy away from his stare, "It doesn't matter what you look like, you'll always be MK to me. Human, demon, monkey - it doesn't matter."

Frustrated tears sprung to his eyes, "It does matter! This isn't me! I- I don't want this to be me!"

Pigsy squeezed his shoulder, "But it is you. Look, I get that there's a hundred reasons why you wouldn't want to be a demon but-"

Panicked, he blurted out, "It's not like that!"

Pigsy looked doubtful but he didn't call him out, instead asking, "Then what is it?"

He stumbled over his words, "It's- I- Ok, it's a little bit like that. I mean, I've seen how humans treat you and other demons and yeah, that scares me but that's not- that's not why-"

He cut himself off with a frustrated sound.

There was so much about this new form that scared him and trying to put it all into words felt impossible but deep down he knew what he was most afraid of.

Staring down at the fur peaking out from his sleeves, he admitted, "The more things change, the more I change, the more afraid I am that I'll lose you."

Clearly trying to lighten the mood, Pigsy responded, "Lose me? Heh, c'mon, kid, give me some credit. I've got powers of my own, y'know. I'm not going anywhere without a fight. Whatever comes next, I'll-"

His eyes burned as he hunched over, "No. You don't understand. I- Obviously, I'm afraid that you'll- But that's- Pigsy, I don't belong here."

"What?"

"I-I'm dangerous! And I'm not the person you thought I was!" He gestured to himself, "This isn't who you raised and one day you're going to realise you're better off without me and-"

The chop to the top of his head didn't actually hurt but the shock of it had him yelping as he brought his hands up to protect the nonexistent bump.

He couldn't help but cower slightly at the fury in Pigsy's eyes, "How many times do I have to tell you I'm not sending you away? Almost eighteen years and you still haven't gotten that through your thick skull! MK, no matter what happens this is your home, it will always be your home, I don't what I can do to make that any clearer!"

He removed his hands from his head and argued back, "Pigsy, look at me! This isn't the same as when I was some terrified kid! I'm dangerous! You can't just ignore that!"

"The only one in any danger here is you! And I couldn't ignore that if I tried! Throwing yourself head first into danger, bottling up how you're feeling, freaking out over the tiniest things... The stress will get me before you ever do! Do you have any idea how much I worry about you?"

Pigsy barreled on before he could even try to get a word in, "And all of this "not who I raised" bullshit! You having a tail doesn't change the fact you were my kid, that you still are my kid! I fed you, I dressed you, I-I did everything I could to take care of you and- and if that wasn't enough then I- I'm sorry. I-"

Eyes the sizes of saucers, MK frantically waved his hands in front of him, "No! No, no, no, that's not what I meant! That's not what I meant at all! You did enough! You did more than enough! More than I could have ever asked for! You didn't ask for me to show up on your doorstep but you still..."

He'd still taken care of him, he'd still worked himself to the bone to try and give him everything he needed, and he knew with absolute certainty that if he'd shown up at his door looking like this then that wouldn't have changed.

His eyes watered, "There's nothing I could do to ever repay you for everything you've done for me."

Pigsy wasn't looking very dry eyed either as he threw an arm around him and pulled him close to his side, "I'd do it all again, kid. I mean, I wouldn't let Tang be your babysitter a second time round but apart from that I wouldn't change a thing."

He laughed wetly as he wiped at his eye, "You're so mean to him."

"He gives as good as he gets. But trust me, he deserves it. You have no idea how much he's cost me in noodles and Monkey King merch over the years."

He gave another small laugh, shaking his head, before sobering, "You really mean it? You'd do it all again even knowing what you know now?"

Pigsy huffed, "Especially knowing what I know now - someone has to be here to talk some sense into you and make sure you're eating right!"

He didn't think Pigsy would ever know how comforting his dedication to food was, if there really was one constant he could trust had always been real, it was that.

Nothing felt more like home than a bowl of Pigsy's noodles.

He smile was brief but genuine before he sagged against Pigsy and admitted, "I'm just... so scared of all these changes. And even more scared of what might change next, with me, with the world... And sometimes, I just want to go back to when it all made sense."

Pigsy's heavy sigh rustled his hair, "I know. And I won't pretend everything that's happened hasn't scared me too or that I'm not worried about what'll happen next. But change isn't always bad, kid. I mean, if we went back to a time before you picked up the staff Sandy might never have become a part of our lives and that just doesn't bear thinking about."

He'd almost forgotten that Sandy hadn't always been there and, Pigsy was right, he definitely wouldn't want go back to a time without him.

And even for all his complicated feelings about Wukong, he didn't think he'd ever want to be without him or the island or the monkeys or all the other friends he'd made since picking up the staff.

He'd had plenty of awful experiences these last two years and while it sometimes felt like nothing good had come of him picking up the staff, that definitely wasn't the case.

He sniffled slightly, "You would've never met Cháng'é."

Pigsy ruffled his hair, "And you might never have learnt to cook. But look at you now - making noodles from scratch like a pro. Heh, we should take another trip to the moon so you can show her, I bet she'll be impressed!"

A similar breakdown a few months ago had resulted in a sharp increase in father-son bonding time, and now they spent at least one evening together every week cooking and it was undeniably one of the best changes that could have happened.

Not only could he now make a decent meal but those stolen moments of normalcy had been doing more for his sanity than he could ever put into words.

He smiled as he teased, "You just want to see her again and get another shot at being on TV. But you know, maybe it would be nice to visit her. It must get lonely up there, right? We could message her and see if she'd be up for it?"

Clearly trying to play it cool, Pigsy wiped the excited look off his face and coughed, "I'm sure she'd appreciate that. Er, would be great if we could find another way to get there this time though."

Personally, he didn't mind going by rocket but he nodded agreeably, "I'll look into it. I bet Red Son or Macaque could get us there. Might be a bit far for Mr. Tang...?"

Pigsy huffed, "He'd probably faint just at the thought of it."

He nodded, making a note to look into arranging a trip to the moon. Before internally laughing a little at how crazy a sentence that would have been not even a year ago.

There was silence for a moment as they reached the end of the tangent and he knew Pigsy was waiting for him to steer the conversation wherever he needed it.

He picked up his tail and started tentatively ringing it between his hands, "I'm sorry about all of this. About freaking out and dumping this all on you."

Pigsy gently scuffed the side of his head, "That's what I'm here for. And talks about changing bodies is, in fact, in the job description."

It surprised a small laugh out of him before he grimaced in memory of the sex talks he'd been forced to endure, "Please, not again."

Pigsy hummed, "Well, I don't know. I might have to ask some other monkey demons if there's anything specific you need to know - the sex talk does have different appendices for different demons."

He cringed, "I don't know which monkey I'd prefer you ask least."

Pigsy huffed in agreement before a little more seriously he said, "I know I'm making light of it but you can talk to me about being a demon, y'know? I mean, you can talk to me about anything but I know this isn't easy." Reluctantly, he added, "Being a demon isn't easy even if you were born one."

Especially for a demon in a human city.

He hadn't experienced anyone treating him badly, yet, but his father was a demon, and despite Pigsy's best efforts to shield him from it, he'd seen firsthand how some humans treated demons.

And he'd be lying if he said that didn't factor into his anxiety but there was a bigger hurdle to jump before he tackled that.

Slowly he tried to explain, "Ever since I discovered this new form, I've just tried to think of it as another power and not as who I'm supposed to be. But deep down I... I know it is. And I know that I'm holding myself back by being so afraid of it. But it's not really the form itself as much as how it will change how people look at me, how you'll look at me... And I know you said that it doesn't change how you see me but it's just hard to get my brain to believe that."

It wasn't that he doubted Pigsy's words but the fear of losing his home had existed long before he picked up the staff. As a kid, he'd been terrified that either someone would take him away, his "real" family or someone else, or that Pigsy would realise that he didn't want him.

And no amount of logic or reassurances could make that fear disappear completely.

Pigsy sighed, "Well, I think there's only one way I'm going to be able to prove that your monkey form doesn't change how I feel..."

He took a deep breath and nodded, "And that's by acting giving you the chance to prove it. So... if it's ok with you that is, then I want to try and spend more time in my monkey form. You know, around the house and maybe- maybe in the restaurant if I'm feeling brave."

Pigsy didn't give him much time to regret those words as he huffed, "Of course it's ok with me. And the first big thing that isn't changing is that all the house rules still apply - clothes are still mandatory."

He laughed a little shakily before pretending to be offended, "You think because I'm a- a monkey demon I'll just start running about naked?"

"I've met Ma."

"She doesn't represent all monkey demons! No other monkey demon we know does that!"

He was ninety percent sure that everyone on the island didn't ditch their clothes the moment the "mainlanders" left. They certainly weren't bothered by nudity but, apart from Ma, he thought they were all pretty happy wearing clothes.

Pigsy grinned, "Either way, the rule applies. And if it turns out that you shed then you're cleaning up all the fur." He then posed thoughtfully, "Actually, maybe we should invest in some hairnets or something for when you're in the kitchen..."

He supposed that Pigsy's feelings not changing didn't change the fact that his monkey form had some practicalities to consider but he appreciated how easily Pigsy was able to bring it up.

Trying to roll with the attempt at lighthearted normalcy, he responded, "Liu and Beng cook all the time and I don't remember having to pick out any fur...?"

Pigsy shrugged, "Guess we'll just have to ask, I'm sure they'll be thrilled to answer any questions you have."

He nodded, he was sure they would be. Everyone on the island was always pleased to see his monkey form and they'd be beyond excited to hear that he wanted to try and embrace it, even a tiny bit, more.

With a groan, Pigsy stood up, "Alright, c'mon, we're talking about food when we could be making it and I'm getting too old to be sitting on the floor like this. Let's take a breather and refuel before we try this again."

This was how most important talks played out between the two of them - a barely coherent, emotionally charged outburst or argument, a meal and then a much calmer conversation about the big issues unearthed during the initial talk.

And while not a perfect system, it seemed to work for them.

So he took the offered hand and hoisted himself up. But as soon as he was on his feet, he threw his arms around Pigsy and held him as tightly as he could, as he said, "I'm sorry I'm such a mess."

After recovering from the initial impact, Pigsy returned his hold, "Heh, like father, like son."

He laughed as he let go, "What? Not going to blame Mr. Tang for that too?"

"Oh, he definitely had a hand in it but I'm big enough to accept my share of the blame." He then shook his head in fond disbelief, "I can't believe you finding out me and Tang aren't dating is what's led to you wanting to try out your monkey form more. I'm not even surprised - it's always been him putting monkeys on your mind."

He laughed, "And this why if you do it all again you have to have him be my babysitter! He's a crucial part of my character development!"

Pigsy snorted, "Never tell him you said that, I'll never hear the end of it. Now, c'mon, food and then we'll talk more. Don't think we're just glazing over the "making things worse" comment."

He cringed slightly but he still dutifully made his way to the door only pausing as he realised that Pigsy had stopped to put away the ashtray and tobacco pouch, looking slightly sheepish as he did so.

The shoe on the other foot, he retorted, "Don't think we're just going to glaze over the "I'm a hypocrite" comment either."

Pigsy sighed as he walked over, "Yeah, yeah, alright, I had that coming. Just get moving. We'll take turns being the overbearing father."

A little gleefully, he shouted, "Me first! My disappointed dad impression is spot on!"

And hopefully he could eat up enough time with that so he wouldn't have to reprise the very familiar role of chastised son but he knew that was wishful thinking.

Although, later that evening when Pigsy noticed him staring at his reflection in the darkened window he was glad to have them be firmly put back in their respective roles of father and son when Pigsy ruffled his hair and told him to stop making eyes at himself and help him with the dishes.

It felt exactly like home should, even if it looked a little different than it used to.

Favorite character: Alejandro Burromuerto: He basically RAN world tour and had everyone wrapped around his finger (aka low key even Heather though she did see through him but she still liked him too)

Despised character: Justin - he's genuinely not all that I'll give him credit for being funny-ish in action but he's just bland and I hate seeing people say he's just like Alejandro.

Favorite season: Total Drama Revenge of the island - I think this season is really good. I enjoyed watching it back the day (I saw it early because it aired in France). I remember so many things leading up to this season even the beta designs, the first name it was given before it's official one. It's a A- or B+ season.

Most Overrated Character: Ella - apart of the most boring season of the series and I don't understand the love tbh.

Most Underrated Character: Lauren/ Scary Girl- Before the season aired and during the early episodes she was a very popular character then it just vanished after her elimination

Favorite Couple: Juliayne - HEAR ME OUT!!! I find them kinda cute and it could work if written correctly. I get that people have their own headcanons for Julia (personally I headcanon her as asexual) but I find them to be so cute (she's the only other character that Wayne gave a nickname to other than Raj.....) even outside of her potential interactions with Bowie it could still work. Plus I just don't like mkulia I'm sorry

Despised Couple: Scottney - I didn't like it in 2013 and I don't like it now. I truly felt that Scott was just a rebound for Courtney very one sided. #DuncneyForLife 💋

Favorite Song: Wake up-Duncan's high note at the end. That is all.

Despised song: Baby- just no no no no no no no. I never liked it.

Favorite Episode: Severe Eggs and Pains - Rajbow kiss.

Despised Episode: 3 10 to crazy town- I hate it because everything could have been solved if Trent and Gwen just COMMUNICATED!!!

Its 4 am for me and I just wanna talk about why poly shipping is so good especially in Total drama.

TD is such a unique show that is able to get away with having an extreme abundance of characters, and by extension, ships, without it coming across as overbearing. Like name a show with over 100 characters that you know the name and personality of. It's an extremely impressive feat.

That said with so many characters there are so many different shipping opportunities. Sometimes the writers give two characters really good chemistry as friends or enemies and the fans take it to the next level. Sometimes the writers completely fumble the potential they have and the fans pick it up from there. Sometimes there are rare pairs that in context make no sense but fans make them work and that's so cool.

Anyway back to my point. I personally hate needless drama, in real life and in fiction. Fiction especially because typically said drama involves character derailment and general disappointment for the fans of said characters involved.

My point is that I hate the love triangle. I hate the drama it caused. I hate how predictable it was. I hate that it was an arc spread over multiple seasons starting in season 2 and ultimately lead to nothing by the end of season 5. I hate how such a lazy trope is what defined Gwen, Duncan, and Courtney's characters for a multitude of years only for it to mean nothing, and I'm not exaggerating, nothing, by the end of All Stars; their last canonical appearances.

Duncney was destined to break up after island, that's not what I have an issue with. Duncan didn't have to frickin cheat and drag Gwen in a long with him. I love Gwuncan in concept, I really do, but the terrible execution of it which directly contributed to the down fall of both characters sours the memory and idea of the honestly awesome relationship between two of the most popular characters in the entire series.

And then All Stars rolls around and watching it as a Gwen and Courtney fan is like getting a warm embrace, two incredible characters are finally on good terms, only for that embrace to become a suplex, Sundae Muddy Sundae. So now you're on the ground feeling hurt and quite betrayed. And then the realization that it all was for nothing, Gwen and Duncan breaking up despite them getting together being such a huge plot point, Gwen and Courtney being back to square one despite a whole seasons worth of investment in their relationship, character derailment up the goddamn wazoo on all 3 ends, is like the show consecutively spitting in your face.

You wanna know how all of this frustration, pain, and shitty writing could have been avoided? Poly shipping.

Duncan and Courtney have a serious talk about their relationship, how it's incredibly toxic and they need to smooth things out if they want to progress as a couple.

Gwen over here having a bi panic as, oh no, maybe she likes Duncan more than she thought, and she's also slowly falling for his girlfriend since they've had no one but each other to talk to for half a season.

Courtney coming to terms with huh maybe she's not as straight as she thought and how Gwen calms her in a way Duncan never could.

Meanwhile Duncan realizes he likes Gwen for the opposite reasons he likes Courtney. Courtney knows how to push his buttons and he loves how much it drives him crazy. Gwen is much more down to earth but is just as chaotic and a rebel as he is.

They don't kiss in the confessional in London. They talk. Jesus Christ if there's one thing the characters in this God forsaken show don't know how to do it's fuckin communicate. Especially in relationships.

They come to the conclusion that they like each other, and they both like Courtney. So they go and talk to Courtney, and Tyler can do whatever the hell it is he planned on originally.

So there you go. What was meant to be an informative post on poly shipping turned into a rant and ultimately sloppy fix of the love triangle.

Back to my original point I was trying to make but got side tracked. Polyshipping is a multi shippers heaven. As a multi shipper, it's so much easier to make everyone date instead of just picking which ship I like more.

There are characters with great chemistry that would never be considered canon, Gwourtney, Alenoah, Gweather, Heathney, Nowen, I could go on. There's obviously an overlap in some of those.

I love Gwourtney, but Gweather and Heathney are so cool too. I don't know which one to pick. The great thing is that you don't have to pick with Gweathney. Or Gwuncaney. Or Alenowen. Or Aleheathcan.

There is so much potential with so many characters in this show that it can be challenging to figure out which dynamics you love best and which to pick from.

Not only does polyshipping make that easier but also hella more painless and comical in terms of character interactions.

Thank you for your time and I'm sorry.

Uhm...

Hi everyone?

Back from my little break I guess.

1 year is quite little

yea sure April 18 ,2023( the last time I posted) was a long time ago but,

"It's April 21st!! Of 2024!!"

oh wait I'm talking to myself again..

----------------------------------------------

Guess whose back, Back again, Shady's back..tell a friend.

yea

I have an excuse! I was going to take a break in observance of my little sister turning 10 (she's 11 she's growing up way too fast), boom one year later.

Genuinely forgot why I left Tumblr,for that matter social media after that..blame it on mental health and stress.

People should know that stuff happens in a year, things change. So guess what, this blog is changing..whoopi. Excluding my pfp I love it so much for absolutely no reason

-----------------------------------------------

Blog things.

When I created this blog, I was in my "Jeantonio era", Jeantonio hyperfixation, if you were a CS fan in late 2022 most likely I was in your screen yapping about them and what not. Literally that was all my blog was good for, for that reason alone.

Yea, no more of that. I'm guessing the light switch turned off. I don't know what happened genuinely speaking they just aren't like..you can say I've gotten mature, when I look back at my posts I want to cry, bawl and curl up into a ball fetus position by the pure cringe of it. I don't know.

Not all only Jeantonio, it's just CS in general, sure I'm in a discord server (hi @tiredguyswag) about La Femme Rouge but I really just don't feel the same way about the show I used to. Blame it on personal life I guess.

now that I say that all I say on discord is how I stopped having a Jeantonio hyperfixation 🙃

Anyways,

Don't get me wrong I still love the,but I'll barely post about them. Yea, mind blower.

Next segment

--------------------------------------------------

Bio thing

It's funny how I haven't made this before but that's that I guess,

- I go by Cassandra,

(@r41nb0wzzz DO NOT CALL ME OUT, I KNOW WHAT MY NAME IS.)

-Minor (don't hit on me 😒)

-She/Her

Hobbies: Drawing, Animations, Running,..does talking count?

.. I'll just skip to the fandoms part.

- Avatar:The Last Airbender

- Carmen SanDiego (kinda obvious)

- Any kind of children's show

-Mandela Catalogue

- MLP

- Undertale, but just barely

- Steven Universe

- Genshin Impact

-Spiderverse

I've forgotten now

Now, this shall come as a Total shocker for you guys but,

- Total Drama Island

see what I did there

next segment

-------------------------------------------------

Everyone knows what a hyperfixation is,

A character(s) or show, or something you like so much you traumatize them or you draw them in class so much you have 3 full pages of that one character.

(Okay, funny thing is I've never drawn El Topo and Le Chèvre like, never in my life until like, January this year during Carmen week, crazy.)

Anyways, I'm pretty sure I was never one of those users that had a new hyperfixation like, by the day, "Jeantonio 4 life man"

Which is funny,

Okay I'll get on with it Rajbow (Raj and Bowie) is cool guys.

I love Rajbow so much man..

It's like ... it's like Terry McGurin watched Carmen SanDiego and then implemented Jeantonio onto Total Drama Island.

I will go on and on about them like..

Like look at them!!

Look.

Goofy Goobers times 2x man..

I didn't even mention Wayne man..Wayne!!!

I will put each of them in my pocket..each!

It's a brainrot.. man..

Will I be making remarks about my hating Bowie? No!

Le Chèvre got them because I hated him but now I don't because I forgot my reason,

or I just made him too fem queen in my head..

I love Bowie man..

And Raj..

And Wayne..

Platonic Raynebow 4 life man..

--------------------------------------------------

I forgot the majority of the stuff I came here to say, so I'll just say what I remember, and leave you guys to forget this,

-I'm going to delete a lot of my old posts most likely this weekend, they were very cringe man, understand where I'm coming from...

-Thetalkwithaveaclock isn't coming back, it's getting killed off. But then again nobody cared or knew what it was,

- Posting won't be something you'll be getting in every 56 seconds, it's more like every 56 days or something..I either just don't want to come back to Tumblr or its school man..

-----------------------------------------------

Yeah, that's pretty much it..I forgot a lot of what I was going to say to you guys, okay..uh..

Anyways,

Bye Bye..CS nation?.. I'm guessing the majority of this will be read by CS nation..

- cassandra

☀️It’s Time For DRAMA☀️ - Total Drama Viewer Reacts to Disventure Camp Season 1 Episode 1 “Meet Me In Tipiskaw”

"Ah shit, here we go again..."

So I did a poll awhile back asking if I should watch Disventure Camp, an indie animated show based off Total Drama. And you guys said it was a GREAT idea...

...SO NATURALLY I'M WATCHING IT.

I think it's also a good timing because the finale of Season 3 hasn't been released yet at the time of this post.

From my research of understanding, there's a 'beta' of Season 1 back when it was a Total Drama fanfiction. Then they made Season 2, and then went back and remade Season 1. And Season 3 goes off of the remake of Season 1's logic and canon. So I'm watching the remake of Season 1, so you're aware which version I am doing.

I'm also aware they have these episodes in Spanish as well. I'm an English speaker, so I'm watching the English version. That might enrage some people, but I want to make that clear.

What I am expecting going in; I'm expecting the setup for this show to be similar to Total Drama. With it being a Survivor parody. I'm also expecting the quality to not be as strong as TD, just because one is an indie production and another is not. I'm a producer and I know the setbacks that come with indie works. It's not gonna dock points from me.

I don't know anything about the cast. This is blind.

I felt bad when I didn't do reactions of the 2023 reboot of Total Drama. I liked the reboot, up until the last act of the second season. If you want my thoughts on it. I made a post whining about that last act. I admit I've gotten a bit softer on it, but I still think it's a weak ending.

So with this, I wanted to actually post my reactions so I can get more into it and write down my thoughts like a diary.

I'm sure this won't backfire in any way with people spoiling...

(THESE ARE ALL SCREENSHOTS FROM ODDNATIONS DISVENTURE CAMP. PLEASE SUPPORT THE OFFICIAL RELEASE)

So... yeah. Here's my first time reaction to Disventure Camp Season 1, Episode 1.

Oh, and we start the episode with an ad. How wonderful...

What's worse than one Chris McLean?

TWO Chris McLeans. Dear god...

(I put subtitles on)

"I'm Trevor McGregor, and this is my hosting partner, Derek Johnson."

"We will do our best to make sure that all our competitors have the worst experience possible."

Okay, so is there a fair one and a sociopathic one?

I feel like there's a twist here and it's swapped at some point.

*listens to the game explanation*

Hang on, hang on...

Who voices these two? Why do I feel like I heard these voices before...

Okay, INRTO!!

They had the same cut tape that Total Drama had, that's cool.

Alright, lets see here.

We got a rich guy who looks like he's been dumped out here and would complain about dirt. And we got a girl scout character.

Plot twist, the dude makes it farther than her.

Ninja dude. And... other dude.

...when was this released?

Four months after the TD Reboot.

Well this is a remake of a beta, so... yeah. Total Drama said "We're gonna add queer characters to the cast. FIRST queer characters." And this show said "Am I a joke to you?"

I'm gonna call it though, that's gonna go horribly wrong. You date a ninja, you're ASKING for pain. I've watched Ninjago.

That boy has my thoughts exactly!

WAIT, THEY'RE NOT ALL THE SAME AGE. OMG.

Dang, this sixteen year old looks seventy.

She also looks like the cranky old lady. "My age don't define my level of badass!"

That other dude looks like a whitewashed Noah.

Oh you two look sweet, I'm gonna like you two.

THERE'S A CHILD?!?!

Who tf dropped off their KID in the woods?! WTF?!

DJ's brother. And a COWGIRL?!

I'm surprised Total Drama doesn't really have a cowboy/girl. Unless I'm remembering wrong.

(Or maybe I don't want to remember Pahketiew Island)

Oh I didn't even see you... you're wearing a swimsuit.

Oh. You're Heather's cousin. Okay.

"We're here. Everyone off."

Why is the thug Scottish?

Okay names... uh...

Yeah I'm gonna be bad at remembering all of that.

There's someone named Gabby here??? (Someone in my family is named Gabby, so that's awkward.)

Purple Team? No fancy names, huh? Where's the Ferocious Trout's and Frogs of Death?

"I'm Lill. National Girl Scout Troup Leader."

Oh, she IS a scout. I called it!

Okay, you know a writing pet peeve I have? It's when two characters in the same media share a name VERY similar to each other. Unless they're twins, I don't like it when they do that. It makes things hard to pronounce and you can never understand who you're referring to.

There's a guy named Will here. And a woman named Lill. That's way too similar. W and L sound a lot more similar when speaking than you think. Why? Why did you do this? Why not name her Lilly? That's easier. Or the other way around, name the guy Wally or something.

I'm sorry. Pet Peeve is getting to me. I'm calling her Lilly. You're not stopping me.

"You're currently looking at the future winner of this season."

"I know perfectly well how to play with the minds of these losers."

"I once won a beauty pageant because the other contestants got mysteriously sick."

Okay QUEEN, maybe wait a few days before you decide to SLAY, okay? 💅

Straight to the point. She's a prick. I'm down to stan a prick. I watch Total Drama, plenty of prick ladies that slay.

"There are no cabins!"

Oh don't remind me of Pahketiew!

...actually, I like this idea. I also think this and the confessional styles are more accurate to Survivor. Am I right on that? I've only seen a couple of out of context clips of the show, admittedly.

"A tent, a machete, and a pot."

Then what's that sword? Didn't mention that on your supply list. Is that contraband?

So no food either? Dang, we're really going there and starving everyone to death.

(I would SUCK as a Survivor player)

"There will, however, be a way to get extra supplies by winning the challenges."

You gotta EARN your McDonalds order.

Or Chef slop depending on your craving.

Alright, red sweater likes all this. You know what, I'm all for optimists.

"Could someone take my suitcase? I'll pay whatever."

You were DEFINATELY dumped here against your consent.

"Why are you dressed like that?"

I'M A NINJA. I DON'T FEEL HEAT.

"Actually, I can't get that much sun exposure."

Oh he DOES talk. Okay. I was thinking a different kind of ninja for a second.

I can't get over that there's a CHILD here.

WHO DUMPED YOU IN THE WOODS?!?! WHERE ARE YOUR PARENTS?!?!

"My parents are a little short on money so they agreed to send me here in exchange for payment."

That might be more f****d up than anything I've seen on Total Drama.

Yes? Child services? I'd like to report something.

Wouldn't it be funny if they ditched her cause she's a demon child?

It's still wrong on their end. But it would be funny if this little girl had a foul mouth and didn't know what love was. (Cause she never received it from her parents)

...so what's his name is the real ninja. Got it.

They couldn't afford a VA, I imagine. That or no one auditioned that stayed.

"I'd like to know who picked the teams and why mine got stuck with the old lady, a child, and four guys who looked like they've never seen sunlight."

Alright, I'm gonna like this character.

Not because she's a nice person though. I'm just down to stan a bad bitch and she's giving me that energy.

"Do you know how many animals had to die for that?!"

Well I know my GF would like you.

"If you don't care for animal's lives, I might not care for yours."

OKAY KAREN, CALM DOWN.

"Sometimes I get a little upset, but it's something I couldn't control, so I prefer to see the positive side of things."

Uuuhhh... are you bipolar? That would explain a lot.

"How come you're so good at this?"

"I watched a survival show."

What are your sources? I watched a movie once. Same energy of a response.

"It's just a book about surviving in isolated places."

Okay Noah wasn't whitewashed. He's right here. This takes place twenty years in the future of Total Drama.

"I haven't been out of the house that much."

CALLED IT.

"My parents... they're kind of overprotective."

"A couple of weeks ago I had an argument with them and I left."

I fear that every day. No one likes arguing with their parents.

I like this setup for a character.

"An animal attacking us?! We do not find any food and starve to death?! A forest fire wiping us all out?!"

Oh he's just like me fr

"I know it may be a little early for this..."

"How about we make an alliance?"

"Sure. We can protect ourselves and get the four of us to the Merge."

Ooooohh. We have an alliance ALREADY?!

They might lose like 1-2 of their members, but that's a good idea. Start your alliances early. It'll help you in the long game.

"Right now, you're gonna vote one person off each team."

Wait, what? THE GAME JUST STARTED, WTF?!

This has to be a psyche. There's NO WAY.

"Gabby from the purple team and Fiore from the teal team."

This is a psyche.

You shouldn't have threatened anyone.

What did Fiore do?! Sorry for being a child!

*Team Swap*

Oh thank god, it was a psyche.

"No one will be eliminated today. Only this time you will play for a reward."

So no one's going home today. Cool.

*Patreons*

Oh, there's a patreon shoutout.

I definitely respect these content creators, I will say that much. Presentation is a lot better than I thought it was gonna be.

"I understand why they hate your personality so much, but you know, I can tolerate you."

"Really? Would you be my friend?"

"No, but we can be allies."

Hey, at least she's honest. That's a trait you don't see very often on these shows.

I don't hate Gabby's personality btw. I'm leaning more towards the opposite, especially after what happened to her. Learning everyone hates you right off the bat sucks.

"On the other team they were very rude to me."

They pretty much ignored you, what are you talking about?

"How old are you?"

"I'm 6"

DEAR GOD.

YES. CHILD SERVICES. I'D LIKE TO REPORT SOMETHING.

You can't fight a ninja!!

Idk where he got a trash can lid from. As proof that this man is, indeed, a ninja.

"Will! Go call the others!"

Um, excuse me, I'm CONCUSSED.

"Ouch. I cannot see anything."

...okay, I haven't complained about the voice acting cause it's been quite good for the most part. But that line delivery? Uh uh.

OMG Miriam 😂

Gabby's too much like me here, I'm gonna be honest.

Oh, you little...

Don't underestimate children.

I didn't even realize he had the wrong flag. That's impressive.

"Alec gave it to me."

Oh... but she still kept it hidden. So she still deserves some credit.

"I'm a little scared of the dark."

Is your whole character being a coward?

"Why did you give me the credit for that flag thing?"

Oh wait, that was a lie?

"I prefer to go unnoticed."

That's actually smart. She's a child, and children are "stupid". So she doesn't pose a threat to anyone in Tribal Councils.

"These assholes are really buying into the story that I'm a helpless little girl."

FOUL. MOUTHED. CHILD. LET'S. F*****G. GO!

DEMON CHILD. WHAT DID I SAY?!?!

Oh, the Scottish guy is a criminal. Never would've guessed. /s

They also shoutout patreons at the end with the animation. That's actually a cool extra mile they didn't need to do.

Wait, I wanna see who voiced the host characters. Cause I swear I heard both voices before.

Steven Gordon & Silly Billy.

Yeah I definitely heard those voices before.

Well, kudos to everyone in these credits that worked on this show. Credit has gotta be due.

Presentation wise, that was way better than I thought. I didn't think it was gonna be good quality at all. That animation looked so close to Total Drama and was very smooth!

I also may or may not like the designs better than the TD Reboot designs. Just because there's more character in each of them.

I love the idea of the cast not all being the same age. It's a lot more variety to character backgrounds. I don't hate the teenagers TD used or anything. This is just another approach and idea.

Character opinions: (I looked back to get the names down)

Dan, Ellie, Jake, and Miriam... eh? They didn't do anything this episode. Nothing to say.

All Alec really did was be involved in that lie for Fiore. Maybe he's her first target and he's an early boot and that's why she picked him.

Fiore is a demon child and I am so here for it. Like yeah, maybe her parents actually did dump her here cause they don't like her. That does explain her behavior. But she's also like "Well f**k it, I'll roll with it. I'm here to win a million bucks and crush some adults. Easy peasy."

Tom... NINJA.

No, but seriously, it's not subtle he's hiding stuff. But it could end up being something really minor like he hates his appearance or something and wants to be seen as the cool guy.

Grett, she's a bad bitch. She's not a good person. But you know what? After watching Total Drama and suffering through such nasty characters making it far in the game, I have embraced it. So yeah, QUEEN. SLAY. 💅

Gabby... I think there's some depth to her, and I THINK I like her, but she has some faults like a temper and talking too much. (She's just like me fr) She might climb up for me later. Depends on how long she's in the game.

The Ashley, Lilly, Nick, & Will alliance... I like their strategy here. Forming an alliance as early as possible is a good idea. Heather did the same thing and it worked in her favor. I don't think they're all merging though. I think Fiore is gonna target 1-2 of them and get them eliminated. My guess would probably be Lilly being one of them just because she seems very competent at the game she could be a threat.

But like I said, I think she may target Alec first cause she pinned the flag thing on him.

Nick, I like his story and his reason to be here. Like I said, I think he's outlasting Lilly for sure and getting development.

Will... he's fine, but his only trait so far seems to be 'I'm anxiety'. So there's another Fiore target if the alliance break pre-merge is two.

And Ashley... I like her, just cause she's a cowgirl, but I think there could be more personality from her later. And she seems like one of the nicer people here.

So... yeah. If you guys want me to continue these reactions, be sure to let me know. I'm willing to continue this show.

i'm gonna talk about my very first ocs because i feel like they deserve it :) when i was a kid i didn't quite have the imagination yet to create whole worlds, so my ocs were often inserts into existing things i was into.

this is a very long post with a lot of useless personal information, and is more a diary entry than anything.

i had many more ocs than what's listed here, but i can't remember most of them, so here are just the ones i remember.

childhood:

at 7, the very first oc i can ever remember making was Maya, a pokemon oc. she was the fourth member of team rocket in the anime canon, and could shapeshift between being a human and a celebi. i remember her being "older" but that could mean anything from a middle schooler to an adult.

also pokemon-related but not quite an oc, i had a lot of fakemon around that time. the only one i remember was a raccoon-like one named Tyco.

at 9, soon after was Tanya, a fairly oddparents oc. she was a little girl who was friends with the main character.

at 10, i really got into oc-making, and the next bunch are all from when i was about 10.

i started getting into "somewhat whumpier" things and made my first "edgy" oc, Deepheart, for warrior cats. she was a black cat with purple eyes and a tragic backstory i can't remember, who eventually got with stormfur.

i was very into danny phantom and continued my tragic backstory experiments with Chelsea. she was a ghost and the younger sister of ember (she was basically an ember recolor) who died in the same fire. she also had fire+music powers, but a polar opposite personality to ember (she was nice).

i can't remember the specifics or names of the ocs i made for a bunch of these, but i also made oc-inserts for the following around this time:

total drama island - multiple ocs, i think i had a whole fancast, which was the closest i got around this time to making an original story.

monster buster club - character existed to be friends with chris, who was my favorite. she was a monster in disguise or something of that nature.

percy jackson - i definitely had one and i was REALLY into it, but can't even remember what god she was a daughter of.

in middle school as i entered early teenhood, i started reading YA books. sadly, my taste was not that great.

preteen:

at 12, i made Chelsea (reused the name from the danny phantom oc because i just rly liked the name), a twilight oc. she was the first vampire oc i ever made, so i guess she was the start of All This. she was the youngest cullen at 14 years old (i do not remember if this was a chronological age or just a physical age and i think i was too oblivious to realize just how significant that difference was), and had a Forbidden Romance with seth, the werewolf kid.

at 13, i realized i could have ocs that were boys! a fantastic revelation! technically i already had ones from the total drama fanseason i had in my head but they were all side characters. made my first main guy, Oliver, a scott pilgrim oc and ramona's 8th ex-boyfriend.

i made a LOT of other ocs for YA books in middle school, but i don't remember much about the others.

teenhood - homestuck:

at 15, i got into homestuck, and that was when things got out of control.

i started with a literal self-insert with my birthname, who eventually got split into 2 alt-timeline versions of herself (i was a girl at the time), one who went with dave and rose during the timeskip and one who went with john and jade during the timeskip. when they met back up, they fell in love and got together, which i think might be the truest expression of self-love i've ever had.

but it didn't end there. i got really into making fantrolls, and made TONS of them. i don't remember their names very well (esp bc they were all made up alien names) but i remember my favorites: a bronzeblood with an eyepatch whose name started with a P, and a violetblood whose name started with an I.

the violetblood was probably my first true whumpee. while violetbloods are normally amphibious, he was born with lungs that don't work, and was forced to remain underwater at all times since he could only use his gills. when sgrub caused the apocalypse, he had a little tank he would stay in on the ship. and when gamzee started killing everyone, he couldn't get away.

this was also where i branched out into creating original characters not tied to an existing IP!!! FINALLY!!! it all started with fantrolls. i made two more significant sets of fantrolls: one centering around an abnormally overpowered purpleblood who had his memory erased and used to be a cruel whumper-type (and a set of supporting characters to go with him), and one centering around a purpleblood who'd been tortured and the lowblood who acted as his caretaker. you can tell i was very much getting into whump at this point, despite not yet knowing the term.

i eventually decided that homestuck's lore was not equipped to carry the stories i wanted to tell for those two, and split them each off into original universes. i am not into homestuck anymore and it's really a relic of its time, but it impacted me quite a lot creatively.

teenhood - original stories:

the amnesia guy came to be named Nova, my first wholly-original character. he existed in a magic/fantasy type universe, and was the most powerful magic-user in his world. he'd previously been extremely evil and caused untold carnage, countless people tortured to death. the heroes, after realizing they could not stop him, decided to try to wipe his memory instead. this did, in fact, work. Nova became a character saddled by EXTREME ANGST about his past wrongs. to make it worse, his pre-memory-wipe evil self eventually started to slowly come back as a separate entity in his mind, essentially haunting him. i daydreamed about Nova for a long, long time, and occasionally still do.

the whumpee-caretaker duo became Dwar and Clobu, members of an original alien species i came up with. unlike Nova's story, which became so divorced from his fantroll beginnings that his origin was basically unrecognizable, this one remained heavily homestuck-inspired. the aliens here were grouped/inspired by the layers of the atmosphere, rather than the signs of the zodiac. Dwar (the whumpee) had skin that looked like the night sky, dark blue with stars all over, while Clobu (the caretaker) looked like a cloudy day. they were pretty :) these guys are a very very early inspiration for the Kane & Jim dynamic.

i also started making non-IP-related ocs without "converting" them around this time. in particular, i became very interested in demons.

first i made Charlie, a teenage demon raised by humans who just wanted to be A Normal Kid. he played the guitar and used tumblr and was all in all very nonthreatening and normal. he was a bit boring.

at about 16, i later made Nicky, a "redo" of the Charlie concept but with more pizzazz. his mother had brought him on a hunt (for humans to kill and eat) while he was an infant, and she was killed by a demon hunter. the hunter couldn't bring herself to kill the baby, so she took him in and raised him instead. Nicky's story is very very long, because he is the only oc from my childhood i still regularly daydream about to this day, and i have been building him up for a decade. some highlights:

accidentally burns his adoptive mom when he's a little boy who's just gotten his fire powers, and it's what makes him realize he never wants to hurt people. she forever has a scar shaped like his tiny little 5-year-old hand.

demons generally need to eat human flesh to be healthy. this is obviously not something Nicky wants to do or even feasibly can do when he's younger. he eats a lot of other meat (mainly pork), and is basically constantly hungry. he carries jerky around with him all the time to snack on.

as a young adult, he and his (human) best friend (mutual pining crush) are stuck in a cave (entrance blocked by rocks) with a bunch of demons waiting to kill them when they leave. Nicky knows he's not strong enough to defeat them, but he could be if he wasn't malnourished. in a moment of desperation, his friend ends up giving him a few fingers to eat so they can make it out alive, and he feels guilty forever that it's the best thing he's ever tasted.

his mom is killed by demons in a fight in his early 20s, and he goes on a ballistic rampage murdering everyone in sight. after this, he runs away and ends up moving to hell.

when he's in his 40s, he sees a little human girl who's been captured and brought to hell, and quickly rescues her. he can't find a way to smuggle her back to earth, so he ends up raising her in his apartment.

when he does eventually get her back to earth years later, he moves in with her dad and they co-parent. becomes a love triangle thing with the dad and his childhood friend who he eventually reconnects with- not for the usual "you have to choose one!" reasons that i hate, but because his relationships with each are honestly very tumultuous.

my other early demon oc was Crimson, a magicless demon who'd been captured by hunters and tortured until a kind hunter rescued him and became his caretaker. this character would later become Kane, but originally there was no "former whumper" backstory, he was just a pathetic little guy.

at 16, my other main obsession as a teenager was dangan ronpa, and of course i made several dangan ronpa ocs whose names i can't remember. one of them was a girl who had a fierce rivalry with togami. i started getting into g/t around this time, and liked to play around with that with my dangan ronpa oc for some reason. i don't know why, it's not like DR had any kind of g/t in it. but i would always imagine a story where togami became tiny and he and my oc came to a begrudging alliance as they tried to fix it.

i also ended up converting this into an original story, taking place in a low-fantasy universe, where a bully character Damien got shrunk by magic, kept in a jar, and was tortured by some of his former victims. his one victim who thinks this is fucked up (can't remember his name) rescued him, and they put aside their differences to fix it. i just love reluctant caretakers and whumper-turned-whumpees.

and that's all the notable ocs i can think of from my childhood! figure they deserve at least a small space on my blog :) and i still might write Nova, Nicky, or Damien's stories someday.
