@follychromatic @dimonds456 Felt like doing a real quick doodle page of the sillies before bed because my brain decided it’s Missing/Loving Them Hours <3 I love Dante, his pointy little doggo snoot is very fun to draw hehe :]

(Would also like to quickly take the moment to apologize for saying I was making this animatic like over half a year ago and then never speaking of it again, heheh. Let’s just say school plus lack of motivation got in the way at first and well….. If you’ve seen ANY of my insane amount of art at ALL from the past few months I think we both kinda know that Pastra/Dreams of an Insomniac/Alex Williams’ entire existence will not let me think about almost anything else for the next while lmao ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The fixation made me change my pinned post for the first time in 2 years it’s unreal)

Mini ramble aside, aheheh, RECENT FOLLOWERS/MUTUALS 🫵 NOW IS YOUR SIGN TO GO CHECK OUT FOLLYCHROMATIC!!! It’s a really neat WIP rubberhose cartoon where they regain color to the world by growing as people and a town and it looks SO COOL I LOVE IT I LOVE YOU FOLLYCHROMATIC WHEEEEE <333 Give it a looksie please pls pls

My favorite toontown ship is salty westerdile x silly wacky zooblezoop because they're canon in game and they go on heists to steal grahams lava lamps and drop pianos on him and then they go home and eat dessert for dinner because salty has a sweet tooth and then they DONT make out because neither of them want to do that so instead they just sit on the couch and watch videos of people falling over until they fall asleep where they sit

anyways the reason why i had son thoughts was because i was drawing ridge and attempting to draw other cashbots too

she always has a intense angry looking look on her face even if she's actually feeling pretty chill - here she is humming and reading through some papers

she may be all bark and mostly no bite but her snappiness does lead a lot of her cashbot co workers to be uneasy around her (still reasonable she gets angry very easily and nobody likes being yelled at and scolded) (she does Not Like Things Being Out Of Line)

I just realized something.

If you mix macaroni and spaghetti, you get a pasta gun.

A mini weapon with infinite ammo, yet you need to carry boxes of pasta with you. A waste of starch but it can be used against someone physically.

I wanna talk about Flip Turner (Tokunosuke Omoteura)/Tokunosuke Hyori

Maybe I'm reading into his character far too much, but hes such a comically tragic character. Sure, Yu-Gi-Oh is nothing but tragic characters. Alot of whom are presented as comedic and/or kind. Just look at the protags.

Yuma himself is no stranger to difficulties and I think thats part of what makes him so likable.

But this is about Flip/Tokunosuke

A majority of people are willing to write him off as simply annoying. By design hes likely meant to be. However Flip is still a tragic character.

In both the Manga and the Anime Flip blatantly admits that his behavior is a direct result of being taken advantage of by older children, ones that he trusted and even considered friends. And in the Manga the backstory includes overhearing his own Mother speak ill of him to his older brother. She doesn't care what he does so long as he's not bothering his brother who she considers more clever.

These events ruined him and changed him as a person.

Flip, is a boy whos mindset is hinged on the paranoid belief that everyone has ulterior motives. He is reluctant to take people at their word. His actions are a way to take back power over his situation. If he lies and cheats no one can take advantage of him again because hes already ensured his success.

The sentiment that Flip is like this 'just because' is canonically wrong. Flip may come off as an unreliable narrator. He even plays into that in some scenarios. But he admits to his past while under the influence of Number Cards. I genuinely do not believe Flip would have if he wasnt.

Flip has trust issues, seemingly even within his own friend group. Old habits die hard and with a kid like Flip expecting him to 100% switch on a dime into fully trusting people is unfathomable. He pushed others away in the past likely out of paranoia of getting hurt again. Yuma is probably the first person he let himself open up too since the events that caused him to shut others out.

Thats not to say Flip doesn't care about his friends. He does. Especially Yuma who he considers his best friend. He wants to be involved with them. He feels indignant when he isnt. (Seen below - taken from S1 EP25). However Flip is a complicated kid mentally and emotionally because if how he was treated in the past.

At the end of the day Flip is played off for laughs. He's a small impish boy who lies and cheats and has a goofy voice. So its easy to forget that he's the way he is because hes been hurt.

I adore him greatly, I see myself in him. Trusting people is hard when you've been hurt by the people you trusted.

Hes 13, hes acting out. Luckily hes found a group that embraces him, he could have easily fallen further if not for Yuma. I wished the series had of focused on his growth (and by extention some of yumas friends) more. I feel like he (and the others) had a lot of unused potential.

Sometimes I get sooooo mad that I can't get as much done art-wise as when I was 13 but I forget that the most I had going on when I was 13 was that I had Middle School LMAO.

[misstooni]

You ever watch a show by yourself like a year after it was relevant and it isn't something that any of your friends would ever be into but you're having big feelings about it and you don't know what to do about it?

[toonietoon36]

Something i love about salty and silly is that they're just fucking lil goobers that dont give a shit until they have to

They both like to bully toonie

They both like just standing and staring at flint while hes walking (its mostly for sillys sake)

And they both like jumping into the gag n go or breaking the laws of physics and standing ontop of acorn acers

[silly-lil-lee]
