Happy Holidays, Everyone!!

This is entirely an excuse to put my comfort characters in Santa-themed clothes.

3l!grian is frequently depicted as a tragic figure and sometimes i wonder if we even watched the same series

The idea I got is that the 1st area is winter and spring, the 2nd area is spring, the 3rd area is spring and summer, the 4th area is summmer, the 5th area is a mix of summer and autumn, the 6th area is autumn, the 7th area is a mix of autumn and winter, and the 8th area is winter, with the hideout maybe inculding aspects of all seasons with you switching between them to solve puzzles, alongside their themes.

me, the pastel green and pink guy, getting assoicated with things that are green and or pink:

[lucilleverneuil]

...During the two hours Missy and I sat out on a rusty iron grape sofa, I counted four different maids shaking their dust mops over our heads and then some old cow on the third floor with a bird-feeding station on her window sill threw a whole loaf of stale French bread out and then slammed her window down. I guess it was meant for the pigeons, but it hit Missy. I was so damned sore that I picked it up like a football and sent it right back through the window, glass and all. There was a terrible squawk and then she stuck her fat face through the hole and started screaming "You little brats! I'm gonna call the police!"

"Go ahead and call 'em. And be sure to tell 'em you've been throwing your garbage out the window like the slob you are."

"Fresh little bastard!"

"Neurotic!" Missy yelled."

IIRC the key 3 have expressed in past streams they dont intend to make another competition-based show, so I doubt they'd go that route now! It'll PROBABLY be slice of life... hopefully! I just hope we'll get some good meepling content AHA

(especially hoping they don't forget mecintosh and the other closet-bound meeplers... it'd be So fun to see them get a callback! 4S too!!! Begging AE to not abandon these creatures) -2G Anon

I haven’t been paying much attention to what people are speculating the season 3 songs are going to be, but I imagine that there’s been plenty of discourse about Yellow by Coldplay. Part of me does think it would be a bit on the nose, but ultimately I don’t care because JUST LISTEN TO THIS SONG AND TELL ME IT WOULDN’T BE PERFECT FOR POLIN’S WEDDING I DARE YOU

[thewistlingbadger]

Act two was SO much better than Act 1 😭

[onsideramen]

For a lack of better words, my thoughts on dragons rising season 2 part 1 is as follows:

*SHAKING LIKE A DOG HYPED UP ON TEN BARRELS OF ACID, THROTHING AT THE MOUTH, RIPPING APART THE GROUND, SCREAMING, YOWLING EVEN, SOBBING, SETTING THE WORLD ON FIRE, MORE SOBBING*

WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
