the alliance........ from left to right: baseball, suitcase, nickel, and balloon!

(i was trying to find a way to represent balloon's name and i came upon a lucky medium: given how he was a jerk in ii1 and nickel continued to see him as such, i imagine he'd just call him "bully" from then on, even after they became friends -- and it sounds like the word "balloon", no?)

#dandy's doodles #inanimate insanity #ii #ii baseball #ii suitcase #ii nickel #ii balloon #ii gjinka #ii humie #ii humanized #i love you casey sue <333 she's so cute #i gave her limb difference by the way. hope i depicted it well #there was this contestant on the great british baking show (bryony's her name i think?). really sweet. reminded me of suitcase #and she has a limb difference. so that subconsciously inspired that part of my suitcase design #i would just call nickel 'nick' but there was this kid in my jewish pre-k named nicky and i want to emphasize to myself that he's jewish #a jewish prick at that!!!! ...nothing against that kid though. the only thru-line is that he's jewish lol #nicky (nickel) is a jewish-middle-school-rich-kid to inferiority-superiority-complex-incel pipeline #<- 'incel' used loosely. mostly because it's funny #i kind of want to investigate how the rich kids from my jewish middle school have changed from then to now. they're fascinating creatures #i wonder if they all still have their stupid stupid perms #and for ben i was thinking about charlie brown #baseball (obvious) + often down about stuff + the 'leader' of the group but not very good at it #oh yeah also you don't see it in his design (cuz he's modest!) but ben has top surgery scars that look a little like the baseball stitches #and then allen... idk the long-sleeves under short-sleeves just works. with the sweatpants #i want him to appear kind of uncomfortable. weirdly warm and clammy #i like to think of him rolling up his sleeves as ii1 balloon to beat someone up lololol...#i need to rewatch ii1 to get the deets on how balloon was. but then i want to rewatch the whole show anyway
