HAJHS I sped ran this comic for the puberty prompt for the patakis week AHAJS
ALSO- A little headcanon that I might or might not develop cause I think it'd be sad but also interesting and on my experience could be very real.
I think Lila will keep being a nice girl until the the start of junior high where I think she'll start switching a little, change her appearance to fit in more with popular kids and actually start to be mean in a passive aggresive innocente way, idk just a thought. Later in life she'd come back to who she was before, I just feel like it could be a little canon event for some people

The Patakis Week Day 2: Summer Job.
When you've been trying not to let old feelings resurface now that your ex-bf is finally back after years away and a bad break up but he's got the Audacity to say things like that.
God you hate him. And yet- no no NO NO NO!!!
~~~~
I'm in the 'there are times when Arnold can be a lil shit and it's hilarious' camp. Anyway, they're friends, Arnold's the main one pining while Helga's trying not to slip back into her old ways bc she promised herself after being hurt last time etc etc. I just like pining Arnold and conflicted Helga lol Don't worry they both sort it out in college and are happy.
Would you all like to see these two resolve their feelings for each other in canon? Then hop on over to the campaign website and sign the petition to greenlight the patakis! You can also enter to win prizes!

The Patakis Week Day 2!
I’m honestly so proud of this one, I just finished it today so I can post it in time. (I really don’t wanna fall behind like Inktober ☠️)
Following the prompts, here is the scenario:
Arnold and Helga are volunteering at PS 118 for their summer program that is essentially just a glorified baby sitting gig, which is why they’re letting high schoolers do it in the first place. We all know why Helga took the job, and it has nothing to do with kids. So when a young student in her cluster, Daisy May*, becomes overly attached, Helga exploits Daisy’s love of pudding. Arnold has been watching Helga too, and notices that she’s up to her old tricks. “You can’t just sit the kid in a corner with a pudding cup, how is she going to learn?”
“That’s how Bob did it and I turned out fine”
“Okay Helga, just be big enough to clean the mess”
*Fun fact: Daisy May is the name of the love interest in Lil Abner, where Arnold’s pet pig gets his namesake. Daisy May pursues the main character even though he shows no interest. It’s a Helga-ception.(credit to my bf for that)
One thing that I LOVE about Helga is her tenacity to break the rules (law😝) for the sake of her personal mission. Since it’s just a blurb for a picture, I didn’t get too detailed with the plot but I’d like to think that Helga was getting up to something Football related 😏
I wanted her face to look frustrated for being caught out, but also totally elated that Arnold was paying attention to her 😍
@opthepatakis
————————
Since I’m using my Tumblr as more of an “art diary”, I’d like to include some more info behind what went into this piece:
Much like Inktober, I’m using this challenge to learn more about Procreate, experiment with brushes and figure out what’s “right” for me.
To be frank, it has been a mildly frustrating experience internally because I already know that my weakness is color. Digital painting and traditional are just not the same, they don’t work the same (to me anyway). The interface of Procreate is so different from Photoshop too, finding and remembering to use tools isn’t a simple transition, either. It makes me self conscious of my art, even though I’ve gone to art school, and it throws me off to have to stop and Google stuff. But! I think with this piece, I’m FINALLY in a good groove of how I want my art to look and how to get there.
TLDR; I cry bc the lesson I refuse to learn is that you never stop learning 🙃
PS - skipping Patakis Week Day 3 to put the amount of effort and time that I want to put into Day 4’s prompt, however, I’ll still post something fun! 💜

It's being a while since I drew this two, I came back (a little late) for The Patakis Week on "Summer job" day. I imagine Helga and Arnold getting a job as safeguard (does safeguard is a paid job? idk) in the public beach just for Helga to be fired after making cry some kids with her water gun Nerf.
Good thing she found a new job near the beach lol
(I'm sorry I can't draw them in the original cartoon style ಥ_ಥ please accept this last doodle as a compensation)
Anyway, do you guys want more Helga G Pataki? Well, you guys can sign this petition to make the spin off "the patakis" a reality here: https://operationthepatakis.carrd.co

Goodbye - fanfic
Helga stood at the bridge looking into the water and smiled at the memories her and Around shared on this very same bridge. She squeezed her locket in her hand tighter trying not to cry. As she fought to keep back her tears she could hear running footsteps and panting and she smiled and her tears dried instantly.
Arnold runs up to Helga panting
“Sorry, I’m late Helga” Arnold was holding a beautiful wrapped box with Helga’s name written on it
“Oh, it’s okay, I was completely zoned out anyway, I almost forget you were coming” Helga nervously laughs
Arnold stared at her for a moment and smiled
“ you know that you don’t have to hide your feelings with ME.
Arnold face saddens and he gently grabs her hand
I got to know you, the REAL you and I’m really happy that you trusted me enough to let your guard down with me and…..I just really don’t want you to change that since I’m moving…you just mean a lot to me Helga.”
Helga tried her best to hold back her tears but could not hold back. Since admitting her feelings for Arnold TO Arnold. She’s been so genuinely happy she was able to ignore her problems at home when she was with him what would she do now?
Arnold embraced Helga in a hug without saying a word
“I promise, I’ll still always be here for you, you don’t have to force yourself to deal with so much alone” Arnold pulled back from the hug and finally hands her the gift
Helga smiled and grabs the beautifully wrapped box
“Go ahead, open it” Arnold smiled
Helga carefully pulled the ribbon and removed the lid before looking into the box to see two beautiful lockets, a small pair of scissors and an old Polaroid camera
Arnold grabbed the camera and stood by Helga and held her close and smiled widely
Causing Helga to smile before he took two pictures
“Ha! Got you to smile for two! That’s a new record” Arnold grinned at Helga before grabbing the scissors
Helga stomach fluttered with butterflies as she watched Arnold set up the lockets
“Alright! Done!” Arnold hands Helga one of the lockets
Helga opens the locket and smiles with tears in her eyes again looking at the two of them.
“I gotta admit, I’m gonna miss you football head”
Arnold smiled back “I can’t believe I’m gonna miss hearing you call me that”
They both laughed
“Im really gonna miss you too Helga” he says while looking down at his locket then back at Helga
They stared in each others eyes before they kissed
Headlights start to illuminate them as Arnolds parents car came up the bridge.
Helga face dropped again and she looked at Arnold.
I’m always a call away, and when I come to visit we’ll have Chez Paris, he said while kissing her hand and giving her a wink
Helga turned red and laughed nervously
“Au Revoir, Arnold” she replied sadly as she watched him slowly back up and start walking towards the car taking one more look at Helga before getting in.
Helga watched as the car drove over the bridge and out of sight before looking back down at her new locket.
She opened it again and realized it was engraved Helga smiled
“I don’t just like you, I like you, like you”

Enjoy my lazy drawing
I would like to think that maybe while being in that werid stage of not talking cuz they broke up that Arnold being Arnold would reach out to Helga just to repair things but Helga at frist she wouldn't wrote back but after a lot of late night rereading the letter and doing some thinking she responds back. She scared to be open with Arnold again, but after they started sending each other letters and started being fiendish, she knew she had made the right choice

#thepatakisweek day 2 (I’m late whoopsie) - word prompt: Closet 🍬🚪
One of the things that always bugged me when watching Hey Arnold! was one of Helga’s main… “romantic” outlets, one of the few objects she could proclaim her secret love: the famous(and kinda creepy) ”Arnold gumhead”
As shown in “The Patakis” mini-Bible spin off, Helga would have gotten a scholarship at a very prestigious school due her creative art projects, that being photography, creative writing pieces and so on, as much as I’m thankful she got a ~healthier~ way to let her emotions out, I’d love to see what happened to her “Arnold collection” on #thepatakis .
In this piece, I imagined Helga deciding to throw everything “embarrassing” or “Arnold-related” away before emerging herself into writing her application letter (And therefore a “new Helga”) everything but- the Gum-Arnold and Her beloved locket (next fanart will be about so said locket!).
For young Helga, that closet was her safe heaven, from her family, from school, from the facade she created for herself, from everything. There, she could finally let go and be herself, before her final act, she locks herself once again in her closet and writes precisely the piece that settled the deal for her scholarship. Giving a proper beginning for Helga’s journey exploring her feelings more openly, while simultaneously a proper ending to young Helga’s dedication to her first love.
This is the my first piece for the #thepatakisweek , if you have no ideia what I’m taking about: hi! Did you know Helga almost had her own TV show? No? Then please watch the video at the end of this post (swipe right) with more details over #operationthepatakis 🎀@opthepatakis

Yay The Patakis Week is here!!
The Patakis is a concept focused on Helga’s home life as a teen while Arnold is away living with his parents after Jungle Movie. A motif of the series is Helga writing him letters, envelope, stamped, and all, and shoving them in a binder in her closet, never sending them out.
Following the prompts, my idea was that they both attended a party for a mutual friend and Arnold popped up as a secret/surprise. Since I’m an adult, I usually think party = alcohol, but midway through drawing I thought “ah crap! They’re under aged!!” So now the story is that Arnold picked up a “soda” 🥴 (which is really easy to do now-a-days, with hard seltzers looking like energy drinks a lot of the time).
Anyway, Helga is not fitting in so well, and all of the attention is on Arnold, causing her negative conscience to confirm that she was better off having not sent him her letters. Time did not stop for him the way that it did for her, and he isn’t enthralled in conversation with her like he is with everyone else.
Deciding to skip early to spare herself some emotional damage, Arnold catches her at the door, and is feeling very honest 😉
If you read this far, please leave a 💜 and lmk if my fanfic writing skills are rusty 😝
