@optimst sent ? and got "i'm not crying"

"i'm not!" alex said, wiping at his eyes. the last time he had cried like this in front of izzy was when he had to say goodbye to ava, and that was years ago now. yeah, him and izzy were closer now but it was still embarrassing. all his life alex was told to be a man and toughen up, and this was the exact opposite of that. he took a few deep breaths and waited for his heart rate to go back to normal. he wouldn't say it aloud any time soon, but izzy sitting next to him helped him feel better too. "okay, okay, i'm done," he said, wiping at his cheeks to make sure he had stopped crying.

"when did that ever stop us?" erin asked, a playful grin dancing across her face, eyebrows lifting slightly as if to not take no for an answer –– which she wouldn't. sure, maybe this would end in a disaster, but that wasn't going to be known unless they actually embarked on this so called adventure. "but the fact is, they said they were going to the cabin for the weekend, and we could join them if we wanted. so let's go. what had we really got to lose?"

Nickmas: Rugrats Holiday Triple Feature! (Comission for WeirdKev27)

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah and Heri Za Kwanzaa to all of you! It's once again time for the n n nickest time of the year, Nickmas! We launched it with christmas and july this year and it's back again. This year the last night of Chanukah and first night of kwanza are both on the same night and the same week as christmas. So this Holiday Convergeance calls for a matching celebration, thus i'm covering three rugrats specials on all three holidays. I'll get to the rest of the rugrats specials next year

So we can focus on the good stuff, a nice spread that not only captures three great holidays , two of which are badly underserved by holiday specials but three distinct eras of rugrats: It's early years, it's revivial era after it's surge in popularity, and it's post movies era now with Kimmie and a sprig of dil. So join me under the cut for a fun holiday trek through christmas, chanukah and kwanzaa past!

The santa experince comes to us from season 2, when the show still had it's old fashioned coloring and more wobbly deisgns. It was a good time.

The Santa Experince reminded me why I loved rugrats as a kid. As an adult the baby talk, parental neglect and what not wore on me a bit last time I checked them out.. but this episode reminds me why the series works. For adults you relate to the parents: their joy in sharing christmas with the kids, their panic at getting it together and the perils of worrying about your kid's waning belief in santa. For kids there's the joy of the babies and their unique understanding of the world, their piecing together somethign WE get and the simple holiday trials of giving gifts or being scared of santa. Combine them and you get both warm nostalgia and relatable hyjinks and a fairly good show. Still not in my top tier of nick toons but I get more what I saw in it, especailly in these early days where they experimented more.

The Santa Experience is a solid special, and befitting a special it has a lot of plots going at once: Angelica has a run in with a store santa where she pulls his beard and finds out he's a fake, and in general is angelica about it. I love Drew's misguided belief she now isn't beliving in santa.. and missing the actual crisis as Angelica starts to worry her actions have consequences after she swindles Phil and Lil out of their presents. This includes your standard scarring for life rugrats nightmare. As a kid I didn't like this specail, felt it was mean... and found out why as santa putting COAL, COAL EVERYWHERE is still creepy as hell. It's not Angelica's little brother nightmare baby terrifying but it's still unsettling. Rugrats had a knack for both nailing down childhood terrors.. and creating them.

Childhood Trauma aside the rest of the plots are slight but still good fun: Chucky is, naturally, terrified of Santa, something Chas wants to help fix and Tommy is of course optimstic about him, while Phil and Lil have a gift of the magi plot thanks to angelica's machenations, using the free toys she gets from her santa encounter to steal theirs. It... exists.. and really works best as a vehicle for Angelica. Her guilt and attempts to right things are charming, especially since the parents shuffling her or the twins around on christmas eve makes her attempts to get on the nice list near impossible and you don't feel too bad for her as it's entirely out of self intrest: she dosen't have a genuine turn towards some noble goal, she just wants her presents. It's honestly one of the better angelica plots: she still bullies the babies but isn't as harmful and her own guilt is eating at her. She could TELL the adults why, but she knows she'd be punished so she instead twists in the wind and only gets out of it by doing something kind, gifiting the gifts she grifted back. The gift of the magi thing bores me as it's been done so many times and usually makes little sense, but Angelica's part of it is great. Chucky fearing santa is a neat runner.

Naturally the adults steal the show a bit as Chaz and Drew to have santa himself show up. Chaz wants to be Santa but Drew is a dick and decides "no i'lll hire an actor because you suck at this Chaz.' Drew is the kind of guy who has valid points, he is often right that Stu struggles to support his kids doing his dream job, but is so smug about it you just want him to be proven wrong. He can't just say "Chaz I want someone who looks more like santa" he has to mock Chaz' acting talent. When he points out repeadtly Stu's unstable he has to mock his talent as an inventor which isn't in question, the 90's just wasn't friendly to self enterprise. Nowadays a man making bespoke toys out of his basement.. would probably still struggle a bit, I say that as someone who does comissions, but would probably get way more work, especially from people wanting statues or custom toys. Also a lot of realdolls but Stu is a professinal and a non judgmental guys. He'd make you that sex doll of the fish from shark tale because he is a real one. Didi would probably get a bit upset and Drew would be judgmental but Stu gets it. Sometimes you want to fuck a cartoon charcter. As long as it's not a current one his kid watches he gets you. Stu Pickles gets your kinks.

I had a point.. ah yes. Drew Pickles sucks. If he were an ice cream flavor he'd be pralines and dick. He's a great character but the smuggest of the group, that judgmental asshole you hang out with because you have to: he's Stu's brother, he's one of Chaz's only friends and Howard i'm sure has opinons, but no one cares about howard so let's move on. I could dunk on Drew all day to be honest, he's just that kind of punchable man you have to deal with. Everyone has a Drew Pickles. It's why he works so well as a character.

Thankfully for me his plan fails as his santa calls to say he can't make it while lounging on the couch. And look man I get it: their at a cabin, they rented a cabin btw, it's nice and christmassy moving on, it's christmas eve you don't want to work and your job is probably not plesant. I don't want to work on christmas eve eve. But as a professional if I can't do something I tell my clients; if i'm sick or my works backed up I tell them, I give them their money, or I tell them it'll be delayed. I'm trying to get THREE reviews done today that piled up while I was sick son. I'm trying to avoid working on christmas eve but I will if I gotta because i'm a fucking professoinal. Have some respect fictoinal santa actor. Have some damn respect.

So the REAL santa shows up, gives everyone present.. and in my faviorite bit of the episode leaves some Coal in angelica's malibu synthia mojo dojo casa house as a reminder that she was good enough to get a present.. but he's watching. And he'll send the OTHER santa next time

All in all a decent episode. Not a new holiday faviorite but i'm glad I revisited it. Way better than I remembered once I got past my Coal Trauma.

Now to put on your yammukah for Rugrats Channukah. I'm not jewish, but this special was a yearly treat for me as a kid and taught me what Channukah even was and is the gold standard for covering the holidy for me. I grant there aren't a ton of Channukah specials: off the top of my head we have the excellent Ghost and Molly McGee episode I covered last year, occasional mentions in Christmas specials, and that holiday classic 8 Crazy Nights.

There's some good sitcom episodes, see the Goldbergs and Friends, which also tackle how hard is with Christmas encroacing, but there should be more hannkuah specials. Get on it peanuts, your active again. Make one.

Still this isn't just the best by lack of choice: RC treats the holiday with holy reverence, holiday fun and helps teach kids about it without stopping for several minutes. It organically threads everything: the story of hannkuah and the religious opression and the candle that burned 7 days thanks to god are all threaded in naturally. Didi makes Latkes. They go to a Hannkuah Festival at a temple.

Not only that but i'ts clear Didi's faith means a lot to her: She enjoys celebrating it and makes sure it's as important as christmas to her kids, with the babies, both Tommy and his gentle buddies, all enjoying it. Except Angelica but angelica sucks so she's the perfect "who gives a shit about hannkukah" kid. She just wants to watch her Cynthia special. She does not for some reason want to watch it's lead in santa vs the alien. That's right Santa's fighting Xenomorphs people!

Disney pay me to make that movie... or just take the idea but put the trans subplot back in Win or Loose and no one gets hurt. Specifically Pluto. He's the only one of your precious sensational six I'll dare harm.

The Pickles are all going to the Hannkukah Pagent at the temple, hence the festival, centering on Grandpa Boris. Grandpa Boris is a character i've grown to appricate over the years. The biggest reason is that he's an immigrant... and that fact's fully present and never hidden or fully laughed at. He brings up "the old country" a bunch sure and speaks with an accent.. but they mostly stay away from "HE'S FOREIGN" jokes. He's just Tommy's weirder grandpa and most of the humor comes from his arguments with his wife Inka, which themselves are just refeshingly "old married couple" and not "MARRIAGE IS A SINK HOLE FROM WHICH THERE'S NO ESCAPE".. something really common in rugrats. The major marriages all seem to be happy apart from Betty steamrolling over howard, and even then they seem happy. Granted it could just be that their mutual beards given the revival but they still seem to get along. Borris is just an old man with at thick yiddish accent who comes from russia.

It's also what makes the story work as he has a petty rivarly with his costar Schlomo, which Didi brushes off as "oh their just friends".. which they aren't: Schlomo is egotistical and Boris is resentful and they've hated each other since before they came to this country.

This in turn sets up our fun misunderstanding: The kids search for the "meaning of hannukah".. and see schlomo as the "meanie of hannukah" and want to protect him. It's honestly adorable as is the fact Tommy loves both his grandpas. His bond with Lou's more apparent, but he eagerly jumps in to defend boris as does everyone else.

Sadly the pagent ends up a mess: Schlomo and Boris end up getting worked into a shoot as Schlomo is playing king herrod and the two end up fighting for real, while the babies attacking Schlomo only gets them sent ot daycare. Focusing on that... while I like Didi sometimes... she really is far from the best parent when it comes to reading her children as she's utterly baffled. Deed, A bunch of kids attack a mean man who was attacking someone they clearly like. It's not rocket science. This is why your kids always escape. It's not because of neglect or plot convience, it's because you overanylize simple shit. Which i'll grant is my job 5 days a week, but but your not getting paid for it Didi.

Angelica also got thrown in as she pissed off a dredle she stepped on earlier. I shan't elaborate further. So she tricks the babies into stealing the tv then fights with them over it till it ends up breaking in front of scholomo, whose backstage while a random actor stalls because Stu is struggling to get the menora there on time with Lou. Oh Stu has a b-plot about a massive gaudy menora he made for the play that he had to fix. Only really notable because it's plot relevant and there's a great gag of him and Lou getting stuck in a parade by accident.

The ending is just.. the sweetest thing though: Angelica's tv breaks, so she breaks down and Schlomo has no idea how to calm her.. but Boris does, having them both sit and Scholomo read them the story of hannukah.. and thus when Stu arrives it rises on both rivals having set aside their diffrences to help the kids, all reading peacefully together. It's a touching tribute to the meaning of hannkuah, together and a wonderful capper to the specail as a whole and it's various segments of the babies acting out the story of hannkuah. Which includes tommy leading a fucking army. The reboot have better of had tommy as aragorn in some sort of lord of the rings parody.. or chuckie as bilbo int he hobbit. Jus tsomething tolkien with a lot of death.

This special is truly excellent: touching, informative for us gentiles, sweet and really funny: Angelica's subplot is nice and hilarious and relatable to any kid dragged to church when they'd rather watch holiday specails, and Stu's exists but has that one good gag and pays off real well. Easily the best of the three today.

Rugrats Kwanzaa comes to us late in the series. Santa Experince was early and while I didn't really talk about it in that seciond, Channkuah comes from the early days of the second production run, with slightly smotoher animation, digtial coloring etc by popular demand. BOth at least early enough to have played a ton. In Contrast Kwanzaa is from that era I barely watched the show and Rugrats, while still an instution, was no longer THE show for Nick but just A show for nick. It'd gotten them two great movies, would net them a third movie that's eh later, it'd kinda run it's course.

That being said it still could put out a good episode and a Rugrats Kwanzaa is solid. Admitely part of my love for it is who it focuses on: the Carmicheals, Susie's family. I forget about them as the show rarely used them compared to it's core families: They used Susie plenty but it took till the reboot for them to mingle more actively, and I feel it's a wasted opporunity as Susie's family is one of the most unique. Not just for the obvious reasons of "she's the only black character int he main cast", but that she's the only rugrat with older siblings. Phil and Lil are twins, Chuckie is barely older than Kimmi, but Susie has two older brothers both kids, and a teenage sister. It's a dynamic we don't really see. I ssupect her sibs didn't get as much focus as they can't understand the babies, but it's still neat.

It also drives the episode: Her Aunt T is visiting.. but her jerky older brother Buster, the sportier one and the asshole (Edwin, the geeky slightly older than susie sibling is my faviorite), says she dosen't have talent, something her sister Alisa backs up. So Susie spends the episode in self doubt not helpd that her gift from Aunt T is a scrapbook.. not getting it's signifigance.

Aunt T herself is great, a vivacious woman whose eager to celebrate Kwanzaa with her family, snarks at her nephews and nieces and is generally a hoot deciding to the Kramu, the celebratory dinner, early to bring the family together as the kids are too distracted with their own stuff: Alisa's new phone, Buster being a dick, Edwin.. edwin did no wrong. Edwin is a precious bean. I also love her snarking with Randy, whose career as a children's tv writer she dosen't get, as I forgot how prentetious randy could be. Like don't get me wrong, writing for a children's show is important, but he's a bit pompus about it.

The episode isn't as throught about Kwanzaa but hammers in the important parts of it: it's about your roots, family and what you can do.. and thus poor Susie thinking she has no talent as her sibs all have trophies tries to find one. She is pretty good at hair, having a new hair styling kit she uses on chucky. Chucky rocks those fucking bows. Also the other kids are here, but the focus is Squarley on Susie, something I don't remember the show doing often. She had spotlights and a really good episode at her house with tommy early on, but didn't have a ton of episodes that didn't involve angelica. here she's just.. a kid trying to find herself.

Aunt T Comforting her is touching as you'd expect, explaning it's about family as a whole not being specail and that even if it was.. Susie is. We also get some REALLY fantastic flashbacks over the history to show why susie's mom, Lucy, loves her aunt so much. While we're just meeting Aunt T it dosen't feel forced, everyone has relatives who live out of town, and shows why: It shows her and her husband meeting dr king, aunt t encouraging Lucy to sing in a choir and my faviorite... Aunt T giving LUcy the money to go to harvard. It's a smallt hing but it shows how that shit can be tough. That T was there for her and got her the life she has now. It's a sweet episode.. not much ot talk about honestly and not nearly as personal as Channkuah felt, but still a deeply sweet episode that both shows off it's holiday well and let's susie have an actual showcase, let's her be a character and the others just support. Let's Her family as a whole be the center. I"m honestly shocked their spinoff didn't take off as I think it woudl've been great.

So with that I bid you all a happy holidays. i still have one christmas treat left in the bag, but whatever you celebrate, enjoy it and remember i'm pulling for you we're all in this together.

I've got a job interview tomorrow for a summer internship with a local cultural trust doing historical research into their ceramics collection, I don't really have any experience but I'm kind of optimstic maybe?

[mariedreamlove]

RINNEY HEADCANONS

(most are for my fanfics but oh well)

Robin tents to try and act all though or really optimstic in hopes of not looking weak, though he clearly knows when things are dangerous

If he would have survived the Grabber, Robin would constantly feel like he failed, because he feels like he needs to live up to his dad who died protecting his friends

If Finney doesn't have any money, Robin will go out of his way to buy him snacks

Finney is the only one Robin openly talks about feeling like he should be dead (as mentioned in 2)

Finney is always there to hold Robin's hand if he ever needs it

Finney himself absolutely hates sour candy, he prefers ice cream, but he knows Robin loves it

If things are looking dire for them, the two are always there for eachother and trust eachother, even if it is pretty dangerous

Finney had kisses Robin once when they were kids and out exploring (they don't speak of it anymore, but it's pretty clear they have had sometimes crushes on eachother since then)

Robin had outed himself to Finney a bit before he went missing and was really afraid, Finn would hate him because of it. But Finn told him, he'd always be there for him

If Finney would have died in the basement, Robin would be watching over him and trying to talk to him while he was dying, so he would not be too scared of it happening

[catloaf9]

Tell me more about Mi-Ji :O

For Wysteria and Silentshade, she is a sensei and her Alt Mode is a fan. Fast, optimstic and deftly. Was kinda inspired by a peacock for Mi-Ju‘s robot mode. Fun Fact: A similar word, Miu means in japanese ,,beautiful feather‘‘ , which is a pretty fitting name for her but I didn’t knew it before. I just called her Mi-Ju cause it just sounds cool to me XD

Interviewer: "Lewis, if we could come to you now, such contrasting fortunes in Hungary last weekend, it felt. Brilliant Saturday, a slightly more difficult race. Where does that leave you and Mercedes, coming into Spa this weekend? What can we expect from you?" Lewis: "I think it leaves us optimstic. I think it was amazing to have that experience on Saturday. It shows that there's potential in the car, and everyone's working incredibly hard to bring performance, and I think our end of race pace was very good. We just have to work on what was… We've understood what the issue was at the beginning and we've got some upgrades here this weekend, so hopefully that… I know the weather's gonna be interesting, but…" Interviewer: "You mentioned performance there. How much are you still firefighting with the W14 and how much are you actually working on performance? Lewis: "Well, as a driver, you're constantly battling the inconsistencies with balance, but we /are/ flat-out trying to improve and, just as Kevin says, we're working a lot to analyze where we are and what we can do to try and make those big step that some of the others potentially, like McLaren and Red Bull, often make, so hopeful and have all the faith in the world that we will eventually get there, too." Interviewer: "And Lewis, we're just over the halfaway point in the season. Can you just give us a brief summary of how you think it's gone for you and Mercedes so far?" Lewis: "It's been decent. We didn't start where we wanted to be at the beginning of the year, but we just made a lot of progress. There's been a huge amount of progress over the season so far, and hoping that there'll be a lot more in the second phase." Interviewer: "What were your expectations coming into this year?" Lewis: "To be fighting for a world championship. [laughs] That's always the expectations. No, honestly it was just to be in a much better position than we were last year, and I think that wasn't the case. With all the amazing work that goes on through winter, we kind of started further behind, and so it's been a big, steep uphill climb, but really proud of the team. We're fighting for second in the constructor's championship, which is definitely something we didn't expect after what we felt at the first test, and that's really down to the great teamwork that's happening in the background." Interviewer: "And the goals for the second hald of the season?" Lewis: "My full focus is on trying to secure second for the team. I think everyone back at the factory, it means a huge amount for them, and whilst we can't currently catch the Red Bulls, I think that puts us in good position for next year." Interviewer: "Can you win a race?" Lewis: "At the moment? Not quite sure we can currently compete with them, race pace. I think there were times in the last race Max was around eight-tenths faster than everyone on a single lap, but never say never." Interviewer: "Alright. Thank you, Lewis. Best of luck this weekend."
