While the debuting Boo York trio are all fun already, one of my favorite things about them is a dual motif they maybe-unintentionally share as a group: primary colors and states of time.

Mouscedes wears yellow, and is the daughter of an old fantasy/fairy tale character and wears an old-fashioned clothing style, making her emblematic of the past.

Luna wears red, and is the daughter of an enduring cryptid legend and has a modernist bold visual aesthetic, making her reflective of the present.

Elle is almost all blue, and very obviously represents the future with her speculative high-tech robot concept.

With the three viewed as a set of red/blue/yellow and past/present/future, it makes sense why the trio would be considered their own group apart from Pharaoh and Astranova, and I wonder just how deliberate it was.

Rise of the Guardians doesn’t lend itself to a sequel.

But if they made one, the villain should be The Pied Piper. And instead of endangering kids’ childhood using fear, like the Boogeyman, The Piper would endanger childhood by causing strife with the parents, making the kids feel like they don’t belong in their own homes.

Plus he’s enticing kids with wanderlust, which sounds fun, so he starts to feel like the photo-negative of Jack Frost and definitely tries to outdo him in terms of style and flamboyant charm. And maybe because he knows “memories of childhood” would be a big threat to his work on the parents, the Piper straight-up kidnaps Tooth Fairy (since kidnapping the fairies themselves didn’t work out for Pitch)

And then you can have Bunnymund and Jack Frost fighting armies of super rats and Sandman trying to hold his sand-constructs together as the Pied Piper’s musical vibrations destabilize them, and then North seems to be the only one who’s a match for the Piper in group showdowns, until the Piper summons his chief hench-rat and it’s the Mouse King from the Nutcracker

I know Rise of the Guardians can’t have sequels

but in this pitch I will—

After we got some snow last week, I watched The Nutcracker Prince with my baby. She loved it, which made me smile since it's my favorite version of The Nutcracker (especially since it's very faithful to the original book.)

So here's some Hans/Clara art. Enjoy!

Really need to draw more often on paper.

Happy Nutcracker Season! Here's my piece for this year's art challenge, run by the ravishing @artsynoova. Designing ball attire for Auran and Loraine was so much fun. I really ought to put them in these colors more. XD Auran looks surprisingly good in red. These two haven't been to a ball in a while, I think they've forgotten some of their etiquette. ^^''' But that's fine, this is an event surrounded by friends, it's okay to let loose. They're gonna have such a good time dancing with everyone.

Thank you again so much for having us Noova, this was a delight!
