Little! Tuco Ramírez Headcanons

tw: small mention of guns (5th one)

✨ Regresses between the ages of 5-9, he is more on the big kid size!

✨Very energetic toddler! He is already a very playful man when he is his big self, when he regresses he gets more blatant about it, and it is a pain for Blondie to try and stop him from running around everywhere without any type of carefulness, his uncaring nature when regressed is what causes most of his scrapes and bruces on his legs and arms. ✨Bubble baths! He loveeees taking a good bubble bath, even if the times he gets to actually have one are very limited! He will insist on taking one when he has the chance, and if Blondie is regressed as well it will make for a very fun time in the bathtub! ✨Loveees horses! He likes them when he is big as well, but not nearly as much as he does when he is his little self, when he is regressed one of his favorite activities is to just run his hands through his horse's mane, it makes him genuinely relaxed, and Blondie actually enjoys the peace and quiet it brings to have a silent Tuco for a while, so he just lets him be. ✨Blondie has to take on the role of being his caregiver 99% of the times, which also means having to deal with the big dilemma of explaining to Tuco why he can't be carrying guns when he is behaving the way he is, Blondie is already very experienced on knowing when Tuco is regressed and how to deal with it, so he will try his best to take his gun from him without him knowing it, Tuco whines about this suject A LOT, specially when he notices his gun has been taken from him, insisting to Blondie that he can handle it, and that he doesn't understand why he takes it away, Blondie doesn't care enough to explain to his toddler friend, it would just be an unnecessary discussion.

✨His brother knows about his regression, but, doesn't know how to even explain what happens to him, he saw it only a few times ever since he left home, mostly because they got into very big fights in which Tuco seemed even more immature and energetic than usual, even getting emotional (he does his best to not show his brother that he is crying or feeling bad)

✨Argues a lot with Blondie when he is regressed, Blondie does his best to try and keep his friend safe and sound, but Tuco always manages to get himself in trouble and ends up on him being scolded by him, something that Tuco hates so he starts arguing about it and trying to explain why he wasn't on the wrong (even if he was) which just ends up on Blondie giving up

✨Although he does his best to hide it, he actually gets a bit sensitive when he is regressed (only a little) and one time Blondie scolded him in a way that ended up being too harsh on him, which was met with a tear or two coming from his eyes (Blondie didn't mention it because he knew Tuco was trying to hide it, but since then he hasn't ever scolded him too harshly)

Shoutout to autistic female fans of Tuco Ramírez from 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly'.

[goiterinthegullet]

Tuco in "The Good the Bad and The Ugly" is honestly amazing

I've been watching TGTBTU (tuguttubutu) again recently and just thinking about how, unlike any other character in the movie, Tuco is the most human. I mean, Angel Eyes and Blondie are incredible, well-acted, compelling, aesthetically-grabbing, but you've got to admit they're rather alien, in a weird kind of way.

Angel Eyes is obviously evil to a classic standard, wanting nothing but to cause mayhem for extremely vague reasons related to general self-preservation and/or greed, and his reasons are much less important to the narrative as opposed to the threat he represents. Sure, he's got a bit of a past, but we never even learn his real name. He's an excellent villain, a perfect character in one of my favorite movies ever, but like Maleficent or Ursula or Scar, he's just that. A villain, and I love it, but it's definitely not "human", at least in an emotional sense.

And Blondie? Sure, its different obviously but his whole schtick is that he literally never tells us anything about him. We don't know his name, his heritage, his backstory, hardly anything. Anything we do know is just sorta vaguely picked up or known in a more personality way, like seeing how he responds to situations with complexity while never actually divulging anything more tangible.

But Tuco? Tuco? He's a creepy little criminal with a brother in the priesthood and two dead parents he hasn't seen for nine years. He used to have a wife somewhere, his eyes filled with tears upon hearing of his parents death. He's got more names than Blondie or Angel Eyes could ever hope to carry: Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez. He carries his name and his hastily-drawn sign of the cross everywhere he goes, gleefully cheats and steals and is genuinely a piece of sh/t, but also brags about how his brother is the "leader of the whole abbey!" after being thrown out by said brother who is also hurting. He's greedy and strange and a fantastic with a gun (prefers pistols to revolvers) and will sell anybody out for a nickel, and he's just so human.

Angel Eyes and Blondie don't try to not tell you anything about themselves. They're not interested in talking, albeit for different reasons, and would probably take it in stride if you did find anything out, but Tuco? Tuco is the only person who actually doesn't want you to know anything while simultaneously never being able to shut up. It's important to not use your own name in the brutal world they live in, a statement said by Tuco himself, and yet he's constantly speaking in a pseudo third-person, naming himself in a way that reveals how much he misses the life he left behind and even regrets the life he currently leads while also, and this is very important, totally vibing with his current life of debauchery and violence.

He's us. He's me. I think when watching movies, projecting onto characters is expected and even encouraged, but it's easy/enjoyable to see ourselves in those that are untouchable. Strange. Interesting. Vague enough to be Romantically projected upon I guess. But Tuco? He's got so much stuff to him it's spilling off the sides. He's pathetic, annoying, somehow worse than Angel Eyes, and that's how I am. That's how most people are. Sure, I've got a conscience, and I can say pretty proudly I'm leading a better life than Tuco over here, but like. Hurting, a little stupid, wanting to seem like Blondie or Angel Eyes (enigmatic, stoic), but coming off as overwhelmingly talkative and annoying instead, lashing out when accidentally becoming vulnerable, a walking contradiction, feeling my faults but never actually fixing them because, on some level, I haven't taken responsibility for my own actions? Tuco. We're Tuco.

Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez, wanted in 14 counties, Tuco's unforgettable charm, brought to life by Eli Wallach in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, captured audiences' hearts. He became one of the most iconic antiheroes in western cinema. Wallach's signature with “Best wishes” adds a special touch to this memorable role

[burningexeter]

I realized very early on that I've always been attracted to in media and fiction, unconventional protagonists that while are heroic, they're NOT at all the typical type of "heroes" you'd expect. I've always found that way more interesting and compelling than most other regular or conventional type of stories. Here's a list of the ones that I think are some (or in this case, a LOT) of my biggest influences when it comes to the characters that I write, the protagonists that I write where it's unconventional main characters fighting the odds or facing the highest stakes possible or BOTH in incredible situations or scenarios BUT are again NOT the generic "heroes" you'd think or expect them to be:

Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez, but he'll answer to "The Rat."

[believerindaydreams]

hmm. I still like that post I queued, but in light of recent events, I would now like to go on record as supporting Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez in getting as much white girl prostitute cunt as two hundred thousand in stolen Confederate gold will buy him :)

all further asks requesting schooling in basic aspects of gender/queer theory will be deleted unremarked

(unless they're funny enough for me to point and laugh at, anyway)

[gnazzietto]

Quando incontro uno biondo penso sempre alle ultime parole di Tuco Ramírez... quelle sui figli di "Aaaaaaaa".

Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez - The Ugly hates the law!!

Tuco and Blondie kid, ‘Lalo’ Eduardo Francisco Juan maria Ramírez

[dansedan]

Me: Tuco Ramírez is a very complex and interesting character with many facets that can be interpreted in a myriad different ways and he’s so fun to play around with through a proper literary lens as well as fascinating bi representation through a queer lens and there’s so much thematic matter that can be taken from a narrative with him and-

the movie: 

[sournote2014]

Could Grant or Naylor have subconsciously thought of Pinky Roebuck while writing about Porky Roebuck?

Pinky is the escaped convict who holds Tuco Ramírez hostage and tries allying with the Count de Cabronet (I don't know why Tuco didn't just shoot him in the desert. It's what he would have done).
