Mike + Sys. Tkl headcanons
I wanted to write a fic but I’m too tired so have HC’s instead.(also I got super flustered writing this. I’m in such a lee mood rn ajsiaj)
Edit: I added some more stuff that I thought of
Mike:
-He is totally a lee. Maybe a lee-leaning switch.
-his tkl laugh is super dorky in the cutest way. Lots of squeaks.
-when he’s tkled he would half-heartedly push your hands away.
-> he would yell things like “Stahahap! Nohot theheherreee!” And mean exactly none of it.
-his death spot is his sides. Give him a good squeeze and he’ll squeak like a dog toy!
-he enjoys every second of the tkls, but man if he isn’t a blushy mess, especially when the ler is Zoey.
-on that note; Zoey would tkl him all the time becuase she thinks his laugh and smile are adorable.
-as a ler, Mike is super playful.
-he would just be the type to go “tktktktkktktk!” And laugh along with his lee.
-he will tkl people to make them feel better if they’ve had a long day.
-he LOOOVES to use raspberries. He makes fun little nomming sounds whenever he gives someone one.
-he just likes to see people happy and having fun, he will never tkl someone if he doesn’t think they’re enjoying themself.
Chester
-he isn’t really involved with the community, but he is more of a ler then a lee.
-his laugh is super wheezy, it always sounds like his dying.
-he’s the type to cuss out whoever is tkling him.
-unlike Mike he actually means it when he tells you to stop. He doesn’t really enjoy being tkled.
-his death spot is behind the knees, but be warned he will kick you if you try it.
-when he tkls someone, it would probably be very grandpa-esk.
-he would call his lee “kiddo”
-he will only ever tkl someone if they ask him directly. No beating around the bush.
-he will pretend to be mad that you’re laughing so much.
-> “why are all the kids these days so gosh darn giggly?!” “Could you stop laughing for a minute?! You’re so gosh darn loud!”
Svetlana
-she’s a switch. Even 50/50.
-her tkl laugh would be super high pitched and squealy.
-> she snorts when she really gets going and is super embarrassed by it. “Svehehetlahahana dohoes not snort! Shehe dohoes nohot knohow what you speheek ohof!!”
- she doesn’t hide the fact that she likes being tkled, and will straight up ask you tkl her.
-she likes to start tkl fights. She is always so confident she will win.
-> if she loses, she says that she let you win. “Svetlana vas going easy on you”
-her death spot is her feet. Gets the most high-pitched squeals that could shatter glass.
-on the other hand, of Svetlana is chasing you you are done for.
-she loves to chase whoever her lee is, even giving them a head start.
-> she will take this opportunity to show off her gymnastics. Be prepared to be outshined by her backflipping in front of you before backing you into a corner.
-She does get ler moods, and when she does you better be ready.
-no one is safe. No. One.
-for some unknown reason, she is really good at knowing when someone is in a lee mood, even if they aren’t showing any signs. It’s like she can smell it on em.
-> “you are in lee mood, yes?” “Wha- how’d you know?” “A Olympic champion never reveals her zecrets!”
-she will compliment you relentlessly: especially if she knows it flusters you.
-> “your laugh is so cute! Svetlana is jealous!” “Look at how gorgeous this little tummy is! And ticklish too!!”
-she might ask someone to let her tickle them sometimes.
Vito
-lee. No doubt about it. I mean- he never wears a shirt!
-his laugh would be deep and kinda rumbly.
-he will be embarrassed by the fact that he’s so tklish. He’ll hide his face in your shoulder or his hands.
-he absolutely refuses to ask for tkls. No way no how. No matter how bad of a lee mood he’s in. He’s got a reputation! He’ll just have to settle for trying to provoke you into it….
-he wouldn’t say anything when he���s tkled. No compalints, no cussing, nothing. All there would be is the sound of his laugh.
-His worst spot is his belly. Yes he knows that it’s always exposed, that’s the point!!
-if you called him out on not telling you to stop or squirming away he will blush as red as a tomato and hide his face.
-on the occasion Vito does get a ler mood he will act so cocky about it despite knowing that he’s even worse.
-> “you look like your enjoyin’ yourself!” “How ticklish are you?”
-he will stop if asked to.
Manitoba
-ler-leaning switch.
-his laugh is super giggly and quiet. Never gets more intense than streams of giggles, with the occasional wheeze.
-this ain’t to say that he’s not tklish, he is! His laugh just doesn’t get very loud.
-he is a sassy lee. He will clap back any tease you throw at him.
-> this means verbal teases don’t have any effect on him.
-however; visual teases? He’s done for.
-holding your hands over a tklish spot. Wiggling your fingers at him. Chasing him.
-any sort of anticipation has him giggling and blushing like his life depends on it.
-his death spot is his neck/ears.
-he’s a squirmer! As much as he does enjoy being tkled on occasion he can’t help it!
-> if he accidentally kicks you he will profusely apologize.
-he is prone to getting ler moods.
-no hesitation, he will walk up to the nearest person and pull them into a tkl hug.
-pretends he doesn’t know exactly what he’s doing.
-> “what’s so funny?” “What do you mean I’m tickling you?” “What was that, mate? I can’t hear you through your giggles.”
-he’s really good at telling when someone has actually had enough and will stop immediately.
Mal
-ler
-his too laugh sounds like his evil laugh and everyone is always surprised
-> “your laugh actually sounds like that?!” “Yehehes!”
-he gets tkled more often than he’d like. Usually as punishment for being an ass.
-> he’ll never tell but he doesn’t really mind it too much.
-he does rarely get lee moods and hides it with his life. (Svetlana always knows anyway.)
-he will threaten to kill you, get you back, etc etc.
-> “whehehen ihi gehehet ohohout ohof thihihis youhour dehehead!”
-if you tkl him you better make it enough for him to fall asleep cause of not he will get revenge.
-his death spot is his ribs. And his belly and sides. Just a walking tickle spot, really.
-he is extremely ticklish and also extremely embarrassed by that. Very susceptible to teasing.
-very weak to raspberries. Pretty much an insta-kill.
-Zoey will sometimes tkl him to get him to stop being mean.
-As mentioned above, he will get revenge on you if you tickle him.
-if you try to provoke him and he realizes what your doing he will tickle you but he’ll make you ask first.
-> “oh I know what you’re doing. And I will tickle you- if you ask. And you have to say the word too, no substitutes. It can’t be that hard, it’s two syllables! Ti-ckle. You can do it!”
-he is absolutely ruthless. Will only stop if someone else makes him or if he thinks you’re gonna die or something.
-is ridiculously strong and pins you down without any struggle.
-he will tickle you to get exactly what he wants, even if that’s just your laughter.
-he acts like he’s just doing this to be a jerk but he actually really likes hearing you laugh.
-is prone to ler moods and often takes it out on random people without telling them why.
-he is unfairly good at knowing exactly what flusters you and how to use it.
-in short, when it comes to tickling you, he is just evil. Be prepared to laugh and laugh until he gets bored.

The London Challenge was a reward, not an elimination. 
Noah knew Alejandro wants revenge against him for calling him an 'eel dipped in grease'. Since then, the threat of elimination hung heavy in the air. Determined to avoid a confrontation, Noah made a daring decision: he hid in the plane's cargo bay, inside a crate, waiting for everyone to fall asleep.  Meanwhile, Alejandro, his manic grin stretched across his face, was searching for Noah. He craved revenge, a chance to put Noah in his place. He relished the idea of finding him hiding in the cargo bay, a perfect opportunity to teach him a lesson. His search ended with the unmistakable sound of rustling inside a crate. With a triumphant smirk, Alejandro ripped it open, revealing Noah's shocked face, intelligent eyes widened. Noah bolted, a desperate scramble for freedom. But Alejandro was quicker; he caught Noah by the arm, pinning him to the floor. 'Well, well, well,' Alejandro drawled, his voice a silky threat. 'Looks like you're trapped, little propoise.~' Noah glared, defiance flickering in his eyes. But then, Alejandro's playful fingers began to wiggle in the air. The familiar, terrifying sensation sent a wave of dread through Noah. He knew what was coming. 'Oh no,' Noah whimpered. And then, the tickle attack began. Alejandro’s fingers danced across Noah's stomach, eliciting writhing giggles and helpless cries. Noah tried to resist, to kick, to even bite, but the urge to laugh was overwhelming. It was a humiliating spectacle, his genius dignity utterly shattered. Alejandro’s eyes gleamed with amusement. The sight of Noah normally so stoic, reduced to a giggling and writhing mess, was hilarious. 'You won't tell anyone about my true colors, will you?' Alejandro chuckled, his voice a dangerous whisper. Tears welled up in Noah's eyes, his laughter turning desperate and shrill. 
'I swear, I won't,' Noah gasped between terrified giggles. Alejandro, relishing his victory, gave Noah a few raspberries on his bare stomach, as a warning.  'If you break your promise,' Alejandro smirked, leaning in close. 'I'll tickle your feet next, right in front of everyone.' Noah could only nod and relax in both relief and despair, his face buried in his hands. He felt Alejandro's warm strong arms pick him up and carry him back to the others. Noah sighs and lets him.

Taking It Personally
___________________________________________
--José was being an ass to Alejandro. Again... but after being defeated by his brother, he took it personally--
___________________________________________
|Lee: Alejandro (Smidge of José)||Ler:José (Smidge of Alejandro)
___________________________________________
AU: Kid/Past/Younglings
___________________________________________
"Come on! Give it back already!" Alejandro whined, standing up on his tippy toes to try and snatch his plush from his older brother. "Heh, come and get it then, shorty!" José bent down, holding the plush up out of height. "Ugh... it's not fair!! You're too tall!!" Alejandro whined, still trying to grab it. "Come on, Al! You're a big boy~ You can come get it!" José's rude asf teases weren't helping. Alejandro grumbled and just tried to get it back as best as he could. He jumped, made grabby hands, whined, threatened (even though the both of them knew he wouldn't do shit). He tried EVERYTHING, and he was about to give up! But... his evil little eyes took notice of height difference. José's arms may be long, but Alejandro was tall enough that he was up right to José's stomach.
Alejandro got flat on his feet and put his hands down, and looked directly at José's stomach. José took notice of that. "What are you--" Before José could even finish, he got light pokes to his stomach. It being unexpected, he let out tiny chuckles and giggles. "H-Hehey! Low blohow! Heha!" José dropped the plush onto the ground to get Alejandro's hands off. Once José dropped the plush, Alejandro stopped poking his brother and picked up his plush, a victorious smile on his face. Alejandro looked back at José who was glaring DAGGERS at the poor dude.
"I'll give you... a ten second head start." Alejandro gulped and took a step back. "1... 2..." Once José hit two, Alejandro BOOKED IT up the stairs, darted around the corner, speeding into his bedroom, and closed the door, putting his back to it. He dropped his plush and covered his mouth. He heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Alejandro turned around to face the door and backed away from it, then came to a stop once he backed into his bed. She slid down to the ground, staring at the door.
"Oh, Alejandro...~ Where did you go-oooh?~ I'm not finished with you, little brother~ I just wanna talkkk~" José said in a menacing, teasing, sing song-y way. Alejandro heard the footsteps get closer... and closer... and closer... and... ... the door swung open. Alejandro was frozen. He couldn't move. That evil smug smirk, and that mean twinkle in José's eyes, sent chills down Alejandro's spine. José walked up to Alejandro, picked him up, and pinned him to the bed with Alejandro's arms also pinned above his head. Alejandro chuckled nervously, already squirming. "H-Hey... hermano!.. We can talk about this..." José chuckled and lifted Alejandro's shirt up a little, hovering his wiggly fingers above his stomach. "Ohhh... I don't think we can... because I'll just tickle you... and tickle you... and tickle you~" José kept inching his wiggly fingers closer to Alejandro's stomach. "Don't tehease mee..." Alejandro giggled, the ghost tickles getting to him. "Oh? No teases? Well... that's to BAD!!"
José poked, scribbled, and scratched (gently to not hurt) everywhere on Alejandro's stomach. "*Squeal* Nohohoho!! Johohohohoséhéhé!" Alejandro kicked his legs and squirmed around. "No? No, what? No tickles? Is that it, hermano?~" José teased, squeezing the youngers stomach. "Aww, is your belly squishy?~ Huh?~ Is your little belly squishy?~ Is your belly squishy?!~" José said in a baby voice, which made Alejandro go MAD. "Nohohoho!! Stahahaha!! *squeak*" Alejandro tried to tug his arms down, but the older's grip was firm. Alejandro was NOT getting out of this one. José kept tickling his brothers stomach until he saw a little puppet their dad got Alejandro for his birthday. José let go of Alejandro's wrist and just tickled his stomach more with his other hand. Alejandro TRIED to pry José's hands away, but it was no use. José used his free hand to wiggle his hand into the puppet. Once it was in, he hid it behind his back. "Oh, Alejandro! You have a visitor~" José said, still poking his brothers stomach. "Whahahat?" Alejandro giggled, opening one eye to look at his brothers smug face.
"Yeah... his name is... Tickle Puppet!" José rose his hand up just to nuzzle the puppet on his brothers stomach. "*squeal* HEHEHEHEhehehey!! Nohohoho fahahahahair! NAAAHAHAHAHA!" Alejandro's voice cracked, his arms being pinned above his head again. "Om nom nom! He's hungry, Al~ You can't let the poor thing starve can you?~" "Yehehes I CAHAHAHAN!!" "Well that's just mean." José teased, nuzzling his puppeted-hand into the younger's belly button. "*squeal* NOOOHOHOHO! NAHAHAT THEHEHERE-- OH MY GAHAHAD!" Alejandro kicked his legs frantically and tried to pull his arms down. "Oh? Is your button sensitive?~" José smirked now, just targeting Alejandro's belly button. "B-BROTHEHEHEHER!! NOHOHO! STAHAHAHAHA!!" "Aww! Look at that blushly little face!" "STUHUHUHUHUT UHUHUHUP!!" "No I don't think I will~" José wiggled the puppet off of his hand so he could squeeze the others side. "EHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHENAHAHAHAHAHA!! NOH0HOHOHO WAHAHAHAHAHAIT!!" Alejandro shook his head, tears forming in the corners of his eyes.
"Are you sorry?" José asked, digging his thumb into Alejandro's side. "YEHEHEES!! I'M SORRY!! I'M SO SAHAHAHAHARRY!! OH MY GAHAHAHAHAD!! I'M GONNA DIHIHIHIHIE!! *snort*" José just laughed, and his eyes went wide in a menacing way. "Did you just snort? OH, I HAVE to hear that again!" "NAHAHAHAHA! STAHAHAHAP!! NOHOHOHO, MORE!! I CAHAHAHAN'T TAHAHAHAHAKE IT!!" Alejandro felr tears fall down his cheeks as his face was burning hot. "Ugh, fine!" José rolled his eyes and stopped tickling his little brother, unpinning his arms and climbing off the bed, leaving his brother panting. "Learn your lesson?" José put his hands on his hips and raised an eyebrow. "Yehes... jeheheus, yes..." Alejandro giggled and curled up into a little ball.
They heard from downstairs the front door opening. "Boys! I'm home!" Their mom called from downstairs. José chuckled and looked at Alejandro. "Lucky bastard..." José snapped out of it and ran downstairs to greet his mom. Alejandro sat up, the ghost tickles still haunting him. Alejandro chuckled and grabbed the plush his brother took from him earlier. Alejandro finally calmed down and wiped away his tears, his blush fading away. He got off the bed, holding his plush, and went downstairs to go see his mom.

THIS BUT WITH DUNCAN LIKE I KNOW HES NOT AN OC BUT I HAVE TO
Like an 8.5
His ears, neck and armpits
His sides and basically anywhere else except these three spots ^^^
At first he tries muffling his laugh but when he finally breaks its super loud and dorky 😖🩷
He likes it if hes doing the tickling, not so much if hes the lee (thats what he wants you to believe) Sometimes he tickles just to be annoying or to get his way but if he really likes you he tickles you for fun
Most of the time hes the ler :]
Courtney!!
Courtney 💀
Not at all 😌
SUPER EMBARRASSED EVEN he will go out of his way to prove hes not ticklish, only to fail miserably
It depends like if he isn't expecting you to tickle him then rough tickling works better, gentle tickles just make him flinch a little
He doesnt really care, he thinks all of his spots are just as bad
Even though he has 3 tickle spots he WILL go wild if you tickle him behind the ears, like rolling on the ground laughing his ass off type of wild
He does it on accident (I mean he always has it coming but yeah 😭😭) Everytime he annoys Courtney she will get back to him
A little bit like not too much just a LIIITTLE bit
Im so glad you made it this far, tips are always welcome! Also have you noticed that my english is getting better 😎?? Thanks for reading bye!!
character tickling ask meme
i thought it would be cool to make a nice little list of fun questions to answer when discussing headcanons for a certain character!! feel free to reblog and use this for either fandom hcs or your own ocs :)
on a scale of 1-10, how ticklish are they?
where is their most ticklish spot(s)?
which spots are they not ticklish?
what is their laugh like?
do they enjoy tickling? if yes, is it a fun platonic/familial thing, or kinky thing to them, or can it be both depending on the circumstance?
are they more often a lee or ler, generally?
who is someone in their life that they tickle often?
who is someone in their life that they get tickled by often?
does the word “tickle” or any variation of embarrass them?
are they embarrassed about their ticklishness, and do they try to deny/hide it?
would gentle tickling or rough tickling affect them more?
is there a specific spot that they enjoy being tickled, either exclusively or more than other spots? what is it?
is there a spot that they can’t stand to be tickled, either because it’s just too sensitive, or it’s uncomfortable/painful/etc? what is it?
would they ever purposefully bug a friend/partner/sibling into tickling them, and if so, how would they go about it?
does teasing affect them?

Triggers : Sexual Content/Themes [Mature +18 Minors /Ageless DNI]
💚TD Master Post💚
Tumblr media
💚Charming Attraction? 💚
Taking a chance with this alien,a ride with teacups that went with the rhythm of human intimacy was your first stop. Faint gurgles escaped the cups.
The name of the ride was scrawled in a language that was'nt exactly English. It was like a messed up type of Braille.
Alien : [chortles] The Humpycups?
You : [laughing] Humpywhat?
Alien : [chortles] Says here,calm monsters live in these cups and react with the warmth and heat scent of a rider. Each session with a creature can be pre set to your liking via the attendant. It also says commando is preferred but not recommended.
He nudged you with a smirk.
You : [chortles]Gross!You have to be naked in this amusement park? I can't.
He shrugged at you and removed his garnments while you pulled yours to where the fabric was the shape of your limbs.
Alien : I'm game for some tentacles to go down on me in one of those cups. Don't be shy.
You blushed at the size of the genital slit on your friend,innocent mind going to the dark side about his dong..the thickness and length it was,hoping he'd say yes to helping with internal decoration if you asked.
Attendant : Are you ready to interact with the cup creatures?
You : [blushing] Yes. But is it true that you have to go naked?
Attendant : If you'd like to tease the cup creatures,it's not required.
You : Phew..
Attendant : How long would you like to spend with them?
You : Uhh..I don't know maybe 5 minutes max.
Attendant : [chuckles] Alright.
Alien : [shrugs] Same.
Attendant : Please watch your step,and be safe.
Both : We will.
You heard the chittering sounds amongst the creatures as they listened to you both enter,carefully stepping into a cup and making yourself comfortable.
You : Hello there.
You stifled giggles as it started by tickling your parts with it's mushy tentacles. Aware of your heat,the creature wanted to toy with you some by slowly and surely doing away with your garnments,rubbing and grabbing.
A warm and fuzzy feeling washed over you as it sucked your tongue and licked your nipples
The cup monster grew engorged as it lubricated itself,giving stretches that made you see planets and begin drooling losing all sense of self. Your insides were being bullied by this tough creature,and you loved every moment!
It happily gaped you,squealing delightfully while holding the back of your neck,making little moans pushing against it's manic thrusts that squelched with every push. It squeaked more as your backside clenched down on the said tentacle.
Your eyes watered and glazed as the cup creature's tentacle numbed your throat,so you would'nt choke or gag as you sucked it awhile. To hear your orgasmic cries,it released your mouth,overjoyed with how you screamed and jizzed all over it.
In the other cup,you heard muffled groans from your friend as he was suspended and every orifice was plugged with a creamy tentacle of massive size. They both screamed in bliss after a monster orgasm between both parties.
After the ride was finished,you both stumbled out of your cups,bodies racked with pleasure from being pounded to the point of no return by nymphomaniac cups. The creatures were carefully washed afterward by the managers of the ride. They were angered,as they liked your scent and against being bathed.
You : [tired] That was fun.
Alien : [dazed] Who's the year and what's the President?
You : What? [chortles]
The attendants helped you both out of the ride. None of the aliens gave you weird looks or stares as walking around naked in the otherworldly Disneyland was pretty much normal. You held in a giggle as one of the games was called Lord of the Shlongs.
Alien : The idea is to use your assets to fling these clay discs,knocking down the targets. Well I think my john is mighty enough.
You : [laughs] Ewww.
Alien : I could do bicep curls with it if you want.
You : [chuckles] No.
The prizes were weird but adorable in their own way. Among them a plush human penis,balls and even a vagina. The newest prize was a giant hemipenis. Intimidated by the mini game,your chest and down below wasn't strong enough to throw anything.
Alien : No worries,I'll get you a prize.
You found yourself almost fainting at the strength and accuracy of your friend's dong as he took out several of the targets. After 20 targets,he claimed the Hemipenis plush,presenting it to you as a gift.
You both booked the night at a hotel after enjoying some of the sexual themed rides and mini games. Creature Endurance was one of them. You're tied down and triple penetrated by theme park owned and well cared for monsters of various dong sizes for several minutes.
You managed to handle a 12..but gave up at 13. After a shower,you lied in bed next to your friend,poking his leashed endowment which changed color with every poke.
You : Is that how you stay young?[giggles]
Alien : There's no such thing as oversexed and overstretched. So yes.
You straddled him and ran your fingers through his hair.
Alien : [chortles] It's about time. I dont have 4 eyes for nothing.
His mushy manhood wormed it's way into your booty hole.
You : [giggles] What are you doing?
Alien : It needs warming.
You began riding him.
You : [softly] What's your name anyway?
Alien : [huffs] Does it matter?
He kissed your forhead while squishing your buttcheeks with his hands,then kissed your lips. You giggled as his tongue went down your throat,but did'nt choke,as the saliva on his tongue relaxed the uvula,the muscle responsible for gag reflex.
As you kissed him,you continued giggling,the deeper he went into your backside.
Alien : You're still very tight.
You : I just sprang back into place I guess.
You liked the alien boy very much. His carefree attitude made it all the more better. He bit his lip.
Alien : Not if I loosen you up again.
You laughed,burying your face in his medium sized honkers. He spanked your booty as you began to bounce on his shlong.
Alien : [growls] You won't be the same once I'm done. I'm gonna stuff you and fill you with cream.
You were excited about what was next 💚

Guys… I watched Total drama (S1-5)
I liked it! Quite a bit actually! Fav characters were Izzy, Duncan and Mike.
On the subject of Mike- not a totally accurate representation of DID but fun to watch. Only part that disappointed me was when his alters disappeared at the end of S5, so I’m going against canon in all fics including him essentially saying that that didn’t happen lol.
Also also, i reaaaaalllllyyyyy want to see Lee!Mal. So much so that when I get the time/inspiration I’m going to write it myself! (Serious lack of TD tkl content and it’s SAD) so prepare yourselves for that!

"Hope is the North Star, Let it Guide You" ...to Green(e)land?
More on the North/bear/Arctic symbolism
Tumblr media
So, the first non-spoiler reviews are out, and a couple of things REALLY stood out to me. This might be nothing, but it could be something, and I thought it was worth mentioning. Take it with a grain of salt because after all, it is wild speculation over scenes we haven’t seen yet.
According to this article from gamesradar.com, Carol and Ash will make a “bizarre” stopover in Greenland on their way to Europe. That tickled my TD brain immensely, because Greenland is another one of those references I’ve just been patiently waiting for for years:
Tumblr media
Greenland is a large island located in the North Atlantic. It is autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, and most of it lies above the Arctic Circle. The capital city is Nuuk, formerly known by it’s Danish name Godthåb, which literally translates to “good hope”:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’ve been writing about the North Star symbolism in many posts over the years. The TLDR of it is that it all ties into Beth through the DC spoon from 4x12 Still, the theory is that the spoon (literally a Little Dipper) is a metaphor for the Little Dipper, which is the star constellation where we find the North Star/Polaris, foreshadowing Beth reuniting with TF, and returning “home”. Keep in mind that the Latin names of the Big and Little Dipper are Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, the Greater and Lesser Bear. I’ll get back to it shortly.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
At the crux of the North Star symbolism is finding “true north” a well known metaphor for finding your true direction in life, including finding true love.
We also saw this symbolism in full display in 7x2 The Well, when Carol was wheeled around in a wheelchair at the Kingdom, while a quote on the wall about the North Star featured prominently in the shot: “Hope is the North Star, Let it Guide You”.
The quote with the North Star reference foreshadowed Carol finding her “true north” at the Kingdom. She found love with Ezekiel, and perhaps more importantly, she found a son in Henry. She found her true purpose in life.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In TWDU, the North Star is symbolically synonymous with “home”, as in “home is where the heart is”, “home” is where your loved ones are. We saw Carl define the meaning of the North Star symbolism back in season 5: “If you get lost at night, find that star”.
The North Star will guide you home, it will reunite you with your family. It symbolizes "home", "family" and "reunion".
Tumblr media
“Home” is where you belong. It’s a mental state, more than a geographical location, but in TWDU the symbolism is often represented by various expressions of “northern” stuff and thangs like snow, ice, polar bears, Alaska license plates etc.
I’ll quickly go through the main points of my hypothesis, because I’ve written so much about it in other posts. Just search for North Star on my blog and about a million posts should come up.
In 4x12 Still, we saw Beth pick up what has become known as the "DC spoon", literally a little dipper. We later realized it was symbolically synonymous with the Little Dipper, the constellation where the North Star is.
We know that “bear” symbolism on the show ties into the North Star symbolism because the Little Dipper, the constellation where we find the North Star/Polaris, is called Ursa Minor in Latin, which means Lesser Bear. So "bear" symbolism is synonymous with North Star symbolism, which, as mentioned above, means “home”.
We’ve seen other references to this symbolism through the various exemples of “north” symbolism on the show, such as the Alaska license plate in 5x16 Conquer, where you can see the Alaska state flag with the Big Dipper and North Star/Polaris:

Remember how one of the guys at the car shop that Carol ran into in TWDDD 1x6 was called Juno, a play on the name of the Alaska state capital Juneau. The other guy was conveniently called Grady... the symbolism of which should be self-explanatory…
In FTWD 6x3 Alaska, we follow Dwight and Althea on their quest of finding driver’s licenses from all 50 states, where Alaska and Hawaii proved to be the most difficult ones to find. And yet, in 6x3 they found an Alaska driver’s license. Dwight insisted it was a “good omen”.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dwight was reunited with Sherri later that episode, the love of his life, his “true north”:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Seems like the North Star symbolism indeed is a good omen.
Alaska is obviously the northernmost state in the US, and is therefore a perfectly valid “north” reference in its own right, but in addition to that, and perhaps more interestingly, Alaska is (like Greenland), partly in the Arctic, meaning large parts of their territoty lies within the Arctic Circle.
And anyone familiar with my writing knows how much I love to explore the symbolism in TWDU from an etymological point of view, which rarely disappoints:
Tumblr media
Yup, the word “Arctic” comes from Greek “arktos”, which means “bear”, and in this case it specifically refers to the bears in the sky, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, the constellations otherwise known as the Big and Little Dipper, the same bears that Beth’s Little Dipper/DC spoon is a reference to.
And now that I’ve mentioned that, let’s check out the coat of arms of Greenland:
Tumblr media
Further, the “north” symbolism ties into the symbolism we see around navigation and compasses. The whole point with navigating with a compass is to determine which direction is north, and from there decide where you need to go. Like Carl explained, just find the North Star and it will guide you home.
Or, as mentioned in King Ezekiel’s quote from the Kingdom proclaimed; “hope is the North Star, let it guide you”.
Or, as we saw with Henry's compass rose t-shirt. It was a representation of that for Carol, her true north was with her family at the Kingdom:
Tumblr media
In TWD season 11 we came to know the Commonwealth, and while it wasn’t without its fair share of drama, it eventually came to be a peaceful home for TF, many of which found love there, started families, and settled down. That was foreshadowed by this massive compass rose on the floor of the former train station:
Tumblr media
On compasses, the red needle always points north, and it therefore ties into the "red" symbolism which I’ve written about here and here, where the hypothesis is that the color red represents "the living color", or resurrection if you will. It's the color of circulating blood, which is a prerequisite for life. And keep this in mind because I'll revisit it shortly.
In 5x13 Alone, a broken compass was seen in the other storyline, the one parallel with Beth and Daryl's. A subtle hint of what was to come for Daryl and Beth later that episode? Where north/North Star/compass symbolism represents home/reunion, a broken compass perhaps represents the opposite; separation?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In TWDDD 1x5 Deux Amours, we saw a clock that bore a striking resemblance to Beth’s DC spoon from 4x12 Still, and in my opinion, it was a blatant callback to Beth:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It had the same type of detailed engravings, and interestingly, where Beth’s spoon was a metaphor for the Little Dipper/North Star/Polaris, the ultimate tool for navigation, a clock is actually also a perfect metaphor for a compass, which obviously also is an excellent tool for navigation:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Because yes; clocks can be used as compasses. I wrote a post about it here, along with all the reasons why I believe the clock was a callback to Beth's DC spoon.
And what did we see in TWD 5x9 WHAWGO, the episode directly after Beth had been "killed"?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We saw a blanket with a pattern of polar bears dressed in red scarves, red as in "the living color", and a clock where the hands pointed towards the "5" and the "8" and the "10".
Everyone knows that TD has "perfected" (lol) the art of interpreting clocks to the extent that we could probably publish a 10 part encyclopedia on clocks alone. Let me just go on a brief tangent on how I interpret this particular one:
One hand points to the 10 minute mark. "10" can be interpreted as Roman numeral "X", which can also be interpreted as a cross, symbolizing "death" and "resurrection". Beth's death and resurrection.
One hand points to the 5 hour mark. In my opinion, we can plausibly interpret that as a nod to the season in question, season 5, when Beth "died"
Then finally, the red hand points to the episode when she "died", episode 8 of season 5, or 5x8 Coda. But the fact that the hand is red, "the living color", reveals a plot twist. Beth's not really dead. She will resurrect in due time.
And when is this mythical "due time" going to arrive?
Well, other clues, such as the blanket with polar bears dressed in red scarves behind the clock, suggests that when we start to see symbolism that revolves around polar bears, is when we should start to pay attention.
Basically everything I've written in this post is about this particular "family" of symbolism. The North Star symbolism, the bear symbolism of Ursa Major and Minor, the fact that "Arctic" means "bear", the fact that the coat of arms of Greenland is a polar bear, the fact that the potentially resurrecting person in question's last name is Greene, and now we finally get a reference to Greenland...
All of these things and many others suggest that now might be the time to start paying attention.
And now, according to the review from gamesradar.com, we’re getting a Greenland reference! It's just what the doctor ordered! And according to the reviewer, it’s a “bizarre” little stop-over, which suggests it makes little sense in terms of the plot, which is usually an indication that it’s mostly included for symbolism reasons.
So, what does it mean? Is Beth on Greenland?
Probably not, in fact I believe that's highly unlikely. I think the "bizarre" Green(e)land stopover is just a little symbolic "snack" for us TD symbolism hunters. I believe that the big reveal will happen probably in season 3, in Spain, which I've outlined the reasons for in other posts, such as this one.
But remember the tagline for the season, "to find home is to find each other". Certain factions of the fandom interpret this as to mean Carol and Daryl are each others “home”. And sure, in a way they are. They’re very close best friends, family, actually, as we over the past few months have learned, through the most un-ambiguous, fiercly insistent friend-zoning PR-campaign ever seen in the history of the universe.
And as I've described in this post, the North Star symbolism is about finding your way home.
But they’re not each others "true north". That Carol, on her way to finding Daryl, randomly touches down on Green(e)land, of all places, is a clue about what Daryl’s “true north” is. She's not touching down on Peletier-land, or Carriere-land (as in Isabelle Carriere). She's specifically touching down on Green(e)land.

Hey~! :D
Idk when or if you're releasing another fic for TMNT 2012 anytime soon, buuuuuut can I ask for some headcanons in the meantime~? 😇
If you have any to share that is. :3
Ofc you can my fellow Anon! (Funny you mention TMNT 2012- I’m literally working on a fanfic for it rn but shhhhh- didn’t hear it from me…)
~ TMNT 2012 Tickle Headcanons (pt.1) ~
Tumblr media
Look at my children 💞✨💖💞💕🫶🏾🫶🏾- absolute angels who wouldn’t hurt a fly /j
I’m glad the fandom just…universally agreed that Leo is the most ticklish out of his brothers
It just makes sense
Mr. I’m-so-serious-and-I-have-to-set-an-example-for-my-younger-brother’s is ticklish???
Who would’ve known!
Definitely not Leo that’s for sure-
Was taken aback just by how ticklish he was and how much he liked it
I feel like Raph can say the t-word as if it’s just an everyday thing
Like to him, it’s just an everyday word. Sure, tickling itself is embarrassing, but the word? Meh. Not really.
Uses that advantage ALL THE DAMN TIME while talking
Saying shit like: “The adults or just having a tickle fight. It’s fine, you guys.” or “That tickled my fancy!”
As he just evily watches his siblings crumble at the mention of the word
He’s such an asshole ISTG /aff
Master Splinter knows his sons enjoy tickling so he always tickles them but uses excuses like “You need to be able to sense where I’m coming from, my son.”
As he’s just brutally tickling the hell out of one of them
He’s the tickle monster they all agree to never ever EVER cross paths with
(They love they’re Dad with all they’re hearts but he can be one hell of a tickle monster)
Mikey is the kind of person who will tickle his brothers with every single chance he gets
Leo’s meditating and he’s ignoring him? Tickles.
Raph is whining and bitching about Mikey’s awesome cooking skills? Tickles.
Donnie is being grumpy? Tickles.
He will take every moment in the day to tickle his older brothers
Which is simultaneously his downfall but he really doesn’t mind
He absolutely loves hearing his brothers laughter- it’s his favorite thing in the world
Ever since Leo got thrown through that window (R.I.P. buddy) and was in the tub healing, there were scars and cuts on his shell
He’s extremely self conscious about it and frequently tried to hide the back of his shell sometimes- thinking that his shell looked utterly disgusting and he shouldn’t have to let his family see it
Donnie, being the medic of the family, would always remind Leo that he shouldn’t be ashamed of his scars- that they loved him- scars and all
And sometimes (all the time), Donnie he will lightly trace over Leo’s shell scars, playfully scolding Leo about how he shouldn’t be ashamed of himself or anything about himself and that he should love himself for the way he is because he’s perfect
And Leo’s just all embarrassed and giggly whenever Donnie does that; squirming and blushing like a tomato, not being able to do anything but just take it
(I put a pt.1 to this bc most likely I will be adding on to these. I have so many HC’s for these dumbass turtles it’s honestly concerning. I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it!)
