Thank you for indulging my “platonic Hellcheer is the perfect anti stobin” in the tags, of course you are correct with Eddie’s role but may I elaborate with:

Mario - Steve

Luigi- Robin

Wario - Chrissy (she’s teeny tiny but also a cheerleader and high school royalty, perfect Steve counterpart!)

Waluigi - Eddie

Wario Chrissy has delighted me in ways I CANNOT EXPRESS. and Luigi Robin???? LUIGI ROBIN!!!

Please can Chrissy, Robin and Eddie all be wearing fake moustaches and Steve feels like he missed the memo and pouts about it. Eddie ripping his own off and slamming it on Steve’s face and pulling his own hair (because it’s long enough and wants to show it off) over his top lip as a makeshift one. Steve now happy, Eddie happy, Robin and Chrissy pulling them away from each other because ‘they are the enemy!!’ (A lie, they are also dating)

Eddie sending Steve this through a series of goombas

But most importantly, is Dustin baby bowser or toad????

most and least divorced mario characters?

Love this question

MOST DIVORCED MARIO CHARACTERS

#1: Bowser & Peach

Now, Bowser has only married Peach for dark ritual purposes, which legally I think doesn't count. However, you can't deny that there is something distinctly divorced about their relationship. Bowser Jr. is extremely fond of both of them, idolizing his father and calling Peach "Mama" (even after he knows she did not give birth to him - another point for Divorced Bowser). Bowser obviously loves his kid, and Peach really has no quarrel with him either; nevertheless, the only time Junior ever sees them alone together is when they're fighting. "Your princess is in another castle", indeed.

#2: Donkey Kong Jr.

Donkey Kong Jr. is so goddamn divorced that we don't even know who his ex-wife is. She just fucked off to nowhere. Now he is a lonely balding accountant in New Donk City, but he is doing very well for himself, so good for him. Maybe one day he will be ready to jump back into the dating scene and find his second banana.

#3 Queen Jaydes & King Grambi

They have joint custody over Luvbi but unlike Bowser and Peach they are amicably separated so all that means for her is that she gets two birthdays.

Now...

LEAST DIVORCED MARIO CHARACTERS

#1: Yoshi

#2: Cranky & Wrinkly Kong

"Til death do we part" my ass. No force on earth or otherwise is going to keep these geezers from bickering over the TV remote. Forget OTP, this is the TP.

#3: 5-Volt

Sorry fellas, 5-Volt does NOT have single mom swag. Although she is the only one of 9-volt's parents with the honor of being playable, seasoned wario veterans will know that 9-volt has a loving firefighter dad whose choice of occupation (and presumably the physique that comes with it) only "fans the flames of love" for 5-volt, disappointing MILF-hunters everywhere. Go get your own, ugly.

[narcissistcookbook]

Talking to my partners after a concert and I mentioned that you and Bug Hunter are, in very different ways, what Morrissey would sing about if he could embrace more than just despair. If he could embrace joy, whimsy, the desire to improve...

My girlfriend turned to me with a profound look on her face. "Ah," she said as she nodded sagely, "they're Morrissey's Wario and Waluigi."

surely Morrissey is the Wario in this situation, and we're the Mario and Luigi

but also, who is Morrissey's Waluigi? who is the dark reflection of a dark reflection?

My posts

I don’t know why, but losing an hour with Daylight Savings is hitting me hard; my eyelids feel glued shut. ONWARD. 

On Patreon: Someone was outside my house and was apparently watching my mom take the dog out and knocked on my front door at 3 am. This is true. I have no idea what the fuck or why. (I actually do not think they were there to watch us.) We are looking into the whole Ring/Nest camera thing. 

This is why I said Tree Removal Guy did not know what he was getting into. Somebody in our damn hedges at the witching hour knocking softly (so it wasn’t a walrus) on the front door--yeah, I’m freaked out, but at a certain point, where I live is Just Like That.

I chipped in on some reblog propaganda here and there (I tried, Edwige), but I really went in for Ingrid Bergman, to whom I have a slight and questionable resemblance. She tears it up in Gaslight--here is the scene where she turns the tables on her gaslighting (origin of the word!) husband.

[avatarskywalker78]

It's Work in Progress Wednesday and I've been trying to make a dent in my WIP list!! I completed and uploaded the Wario centric one yesterday and I've been trying to make some headway into the others using the advice from the WIP clearout post. The first extract is from my 'Alex & Daniel' wip - where Daniel Sousa offers to look after an eight-year-old Alex Thompson for the day, and is a little apprehensive about it.

Daniel would like to say that he didn’t know how he’d been talked into this, but that would be a lie – he’d been talked into it because the Thompsons were practically family and had asked for this favour, and because Peggy was too busy at SHIELD to help look after Alex for the day, so it had been left up to him.

It wasn’t like he hadn’t had to look after children before, of course, but still, he couldn’t help but be a little nervous – he’d only looked after Alex a handful of times and those had been when she was very small, not the bouncy eight-year-old who’d be coming to stay for a few hours, and there was always a worry about having to look after someone else’s child. Especially the granddaughter of one of his closest friends. Plus, he wasn’t exactly getting any younger here, so he wouldn’t be able to keep up as much as he might’ve done back in the day – and he already felt exhausted as Sophia parked the car and Alex came running over with a speed he envied. “Uncle Daniel!” She rushed towards him and for a second he feared she was about to leap at him and expect him to catch her because that really would send him crashing to the floor— She didn’t. She did, however, knock the wind out of him and almost bowl him over with the force of the resulting hug. “Oof.” “Sorry!” She jumped back, apologetic. “I didn’t hurt you, did I? Mom says I get too overexcited sometimes.” “I’m fine.” He assured her as he got his breath back, Sophia coming over and looking faintly amused. “Nothing wrong with a hug, kiddo, you just gotta be a little careful - you could’ve knocked me flying.” “Sorry.” She hugged him gentler this time. “I’ve just been looking forward to this for ages.” “I got that.” He said with a laugh, returning the hug. “It’s great to see you too, Alex.”

I have identified a couple of the main blocks; not only have I not watched the source material for a few years, but...I also don't have a clear plan for the fic!! Which isn't helpful, but now I know I can work on it - I've already found both seasons so a rewatch will be a great help (and not just for this one).

Another one I've been working on is...the Sad Westhallen Fic!! Which might not be as sad as it originally was - Barry's still dead but the bulk of the fic is going to be his friends and family sharing all the good memories they have and celebrating his life - but, of course, Eddie and Iris are still dealing with the loss, compounded by the fact their twins have basically no memories of their dad.

It wasn't meant to be like this. Days after Eddie had been freed from captivity, days after Barry, Oliver, and Teams Flash and Arrow brought down Eobard and called in Rip Hunter to see justice served, that had been when he'd finally start to believe - at least a little - that maybe, maybe things would get better. It had been far from easy, of course - Eddie and Iris's relationship was...not on hold, exactly, but any talk of marriage was shelved for the time being until he got the help he needed, which had made sense, of course, but...part of him had worried that she'd choose Barry in the end after all, because the other man was kind and brave and unflinching, someone who would treat Iris right and all Eddie had ever, ever wanted was for Iris to be happy. And if Barry was the one to make her happy... Who was he to stand in the way of that? Course, this had been a symptom of his depression, and once he'd started going to therapy he'd realised how spectacularly untrue it was. Iris and Barry were nothing but supportive the whole time and Iris assured him that she still loved him and always would. She wasn't going anywhere - and neither was Barry. This had made him feel all warm and fuzzy inside - and he'd finally had to admit that yes, he was in love with Barry too, and had been for some time.

This one needs a rewatch too, so it'll either be this or Agent Carter that I rewatch after I finished OUAT S1.

Toad: No problem ma’am. Just doing what Mario would have done!

*Luigi suddenly slams into him, sending him flying*

Ridley: Gah! You?!

Luigi: Time To-a cool off!

*he knocks Ridley out*

*As Luigi is tying up Ridley the Mushroom Fire Department is putting out the fire*

Firetoad: We got everyone out safe, Luigi. Thanks for helping!

Luigi: If it-a weren’t for-a my brother I would never-a been a hero! Plus, he-a helps me and-a Daisy out in Sarasaraland all-a the time. I’d never hesitate to help him back!

-

~2:00 P.M. Mushroom National Museum~

*Gharnef is attacking the museum*

Gharnef: Goetia! *Dark Magic roars forth*

Worker: He’s gonna level the place!

*suddenly, a blue laser blasts Gharnef back and onto the pavement. Samus emerges from the shadows and smoke*

Samus: How’s that for a laser light show, G-boy.

Worker: Thanks Samus! We’ll get the museum fixed up!

Samus, as she drags Gharnef off: Anything for Mario’s city. He’s the Original.

-

~5:00 P.M.~

*Rathlos is attacking the Mushroom Kingdom Star Power Plant*

Worker: He’s going after the reactor!

Rathlos: SKREE!

*Suddenly, Link leaps from a building onto Rathlos’ back, striking with the Master Sword*

Link: Heard Mushroom Kingdom could use some help!

*Link leaps off as Rathlos crashes to the ground. Hunters come up and shackle the beast*

Hunters: Appreciate it, Link. We’ll make sure he gets back to containment.

Link: Anytime. Tell Mario I said thanks. For everything.

~7:30 P.M.~

*Wario and his crew are robbing the Mushroom National Bank*

Wario: Heh, heh. Mushroom Kingdom is open for business boys! Wide open.

*as they exit, they’re met with a group of angry Toads*

Toadsworth: This is a citizen’s arrest!

Wario, cracking his knuckles: Beat it. You don’t wanna tussle with us, old man.

Toadsworth, unmoving: This is Mario’s city! A good city! We aren’t afraid of two-bit thugs like you!

*taking advantage of the distraction, Sonic zips out of the shadows and begins to lay the beatdown on Wario and his crew*

Sonic: Sorry, but Mario’s off the clock! So I’m covering his shift!

*He K.O’s Wario before he can react, leaving the toads to complete their citizen’s arrest*

Toadsworth: You’re a good man, Sonic!

Sonic: Mario’s always there when there’s a crisis. Helping out’s the least i could do.

-

~11:30 P.M. Peach’s Castle~

Toad: Rathlos, Wario, Gharnef, all successfully detained, Princess.

DK: Who’s the Barney the Roid-Rage Dinosaur looking mother-fucker?

Peach: That’s Ridley. He’s from Space.

DK: so what’s the deal? Mario took a vacation so everyone else had to bail us out?

Peach: Try, Mario was needed elsewhere so the people he helped in the past stepped up while he wasn’t here. Mario wasn’t around, but he was part of every good thing that happened.

DK: Hmph. So when’s he getting back?

Peach: ...

-

~the Edge of the World~

*Mario has been dutifully holding up the sky this whole time Slowly, the great figure of Atlas emerges from the mist.*

Atlas: How you holding up, plumber?

Mario: Like... laying... down... pipe.

Atlas: Heh. Keeping everything from crashing down... it means sacrificing much. If not for you, Id have sacrificed a day no father should miss. Calypso was radiant at her wedding. I don’t need an oracle to tell me she’ll know joy for the rest of her days. Zeus was certain no one would spell me. His face when he saw me, heh. You’ve given me a memory I’ll cherish for eternity.

*Atlas rises and holds up his hands*

Atlas: NOW I ACCEPT MY BURDEN AGAIN!

*the weight of the sky comes crashing onto Atlas’ shoulders and he flass to one knee, kneeling on the ground. Mario gasps and fals to the ground, exhausted.*

Atlas: Were you worried I would not return?

Mario: Might’ve... crossed... my mind.

Atlas: Perhaps you alone could understand. That those charged with the weight of the world would never wish it on another. But it is always heartening to know that there are those who will help when it is needed. Wouldn’t you agree, Jump Man?

Theme: Victory! Toon Link by GB6

[nyanbinary-perineum]

!!! hiii red im back fjkdnsjg

can i ask what your favourite games have been lately? any you'd recommend? ^_^

Kind of a mess lately hehe

I guess one of the games I'm currently playing comes close to favorite- but most of my faves aren't things I'm currently playing :3

Lately it's been a good amount of Helldivers 2, but I'm slowly creeping away from it because my playgroup has moved on and solo / randoms is not the most fun way to play x.x

I do really love that game though ^.^

Recommendations are hard 🤔 Because I usually try to gear them around what I know the other person can play, otherwise I'll be spouting all kinds of random nonsense 😅

I guess I can throw random names and my explanations out there with zero regard for anything >:3

With the release of Monster Hunter World the series got a LOT of exposure that it rightfully deserved.... and that Capcom quickly converted into microtransactions and content skimping >:(

But a lot of people still haven't given the "old gen" monhuns a chance and I truly do believe they are missing out :3

Finding the means (emulators exist though citra getting into hot water makes that slightly more annoying) to play is worth it-

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

THE best monhun with the perfect amount of content, the only actually good single player that balances silly and serious to be worthwhile to not mash through the dialogue (but you can!), 10/10 unique features, and the best end game of any monhun because it's just plain rewarding and fun and gives you more than enough to do until you feel sated :3

Nier Automata

if someone wants to dwell on life and existence and sentience and cry a lot in between fun hack and slash gameplay.

Omori

if you want to cry through a story involving the best characters ever, the best friends around, love them so much, beautiful story and great gameplay and 💜 Also Omocat is from all accounts I'm aware of, kind of a shithead, so take that grain of salt.

I'm not calling it based on their use of problematic terms years ago that haven't come up since but keep getting dragged out as "Proof!" but rather because other people who worked on the game have come out saying "Yeah, that was a really toxic environment like holy shit" so I'm more on about that. Game itself good :3 Situation makes it hard to recommend despite being something that hit my heart so hard :/

Wario Land: Shake It!

is quite possibly THE best wii game I've ever played. The Wii has so many fucking industry defining masterpieces in it but no one ever brings up Shake It and Shake It was maybe the most fun I've ever had in a traditional 2D platformer. AND THE CHARM! THE FUCKING CHARM!!!!! Literally smiling just thinking of that game it's so good.

If anyone considers themselves a fan of pokemon as a whole and wants to try an interesting take on the genre that's a lot more

"Team Building > In Battle Actions"

"Pre-planning and letting it play passively > Active decisions"

Then PLEASE try Dragon Warrior Monsters or Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 for the gameboy color ;-; It's one(ish, I'm counting 3 games as 1 game since 2 has 2 versions lol) of my favorite games ever ;-;

Uh, I usually don't recommend it because so few people who say they are into tactical RPGs are talking about the same thing I'm ever talking about (instead always referring to like, Fire Emblem, which has fantastic tactical gameplay especially on harder difficulties but has never once scratched the particular itch *I* have for the genre because of-)

Final Fantasty Tactics (Or War of the Lions for the PSP version)

FFT is quite literally my favorite game. I've played it through so many times and plan to do so again in the future. It has a very quality remake that is mostly positives with only minor negatives (some complaints to be had on additional content that was added and 'some' translation changes have bothered me but it's really good!).

The sequels are...... Very Different Games both in mechanics, intended audience, and style. I spent almost every year I've been on this earth saying they suck ass, but after having beaten both of them for my game blog and sitting on it for a while after (a necessary part of the process) They Aren't That Bad. FFTA is not a game I would recommend, but FFTA2 has some stuff to offer that I would inch towards recommending. Neither are considerations for this list though.

Here's everyone's reminder to play Chrono Trigger if you haven't, if you play with your mind on and your eyes open you'll spot so many incredible things from impeccably designed encounters to incredible mechanics to incredulous story telling >:3

Hmm. I did take this opportunity to instead yell a lot of normal or well known things instead of all my niche ideas but I uh... I really can just talk about games for the rest of my life and never get bored, just turning my head 30 degrees will show me 300 more titles to ramble about so I thought playing it a little safe was a good idea :P

Uh, y'all heard of Undertale or Deltarune? Thems pretty good gaming.

Thoughts on the Mario movie!

Voice actors were all great in there roles, even Chris Pratt but the obvious standout was Jack Black,he stole the show like always

The references to the Mario series were fun and proved that the people making the movie cared about the series they were adapting

The pacing was the worst part of the movie. Everything felt like it was going a mile a minute. Needed at least half an hour extra

Toad was kinda pointless and unnecessary. Probably should have been saved for his own movie/show. Same kinda goes for Donkey Kong, they rush though his arc and I think it would have been better if he got his own movie. Daisy could have replaced him, which arguably makes more sense since she's most known for the Mario Cart and sports games

Luigi was under used, I hope he gets his own movie. My friend suggested adding a subplot of him escaping capture, with bowser getting bounty hunters to hunt him down. If you wanted to you could make the bounty hunters Wario and Waluigi

Anyways that's some random Tumblr user's thoughts on the Mario movie

[scrufflesksunnide]

I like to think (at least in my AU) Hunter and Arti are like siblings in a sense (not ACTUALLY but figuratively) they get each other in their struggles, they both care for each other... even if both get onto each other a lot, still, they act like siblings towards each other. also a good parallel to Survivor and Monk since in personality they are kind of like a flipside of them but they act similarly in terms of being siblings and dynamic (basically a wario and waluigi kinda of deal without them, yknow trying to 1-UP them lol)

[pixies-and-poets]

Hey Bramble, I come with another question:

Do you think that Bwario and Bwaluigi are causing ruckus here? What would have happened had Cursa recruited them into her army and brainwashed the Wario bros into serving her? Would they be one single mission or could they have been pestering nuisances?

I plan on making posts about their potential moveset and weapons, I ask because I want to know from you what you think about it.

So I assume you mean like, not only Bwario and Bwaluigi but like, the actual Wario and Waluigi being recruited as well? Because oh dang that sounds like one heck of a problem, haha. And a lot of fun cutscene potential.

I don't think any of them would give up so easily such that they would just be in one battle, and I imagine they could fill out some kind of recurring miniboss role. Had they been in the actual maingame of Sparks of Hope, they could perhaps replace some of the battles that were against just masses of darkmess (even though I tended to like those)- or rather, they could have been the enemies guarding the darkmess eyes instead of just random enemies. Like imagine fighting them on the train in addition to having to deal with attacking the corrupted wiggler on the side, instead of just being a bunch of stooges and medicians or whatever. They could be the appointed guardians of the mess that Cursa has already caused, while the actual spark hunters are trying to handle more high-level things (as when we meet them, each of them was trying to deal with a specific other person that Cursa saw as a threat - Midnite: Rabbid Rosalina, Bedrock: Bowser and Daphne: Momma).

Since there are five main planets, maybe you start out dealing with just one of them, and each planet adds another, until you have to fight all of them at once.

I'll leave moveset ideas to you, but one thing I thought of is that Wario can pick up Bob-ombs in the environment and throw them at the heroes, if you don't get to them first, since an affinity for bombs is a thing in a lot of his appearances. I also have Waluigi's affection for piranha plants burned into my brain since I was introduced to him in Mario Party 3 where they made a big deal of that, so idk if you want to run with that at all. It would be funny for Waluigi to have crazy movement range due to his long legs. And I was thinking of Waluigi having a magnet dance type thing, since one of his most notable villain appearances is in DDR Mario Mix of all things, which... come to think of it, Bwaluigi already has that, is that what that was supposed to be a reference to all along???!?!

[numerowah]

So, in your AU, Wario and Waluigi are not antagonists, while Shokora and Rosalina are? Is Waluigi some sort of father figure who wears a pretty blue dress?

Correct! Both Wario and Waluigi spent quite a while isolated in some form, so I have them a bit more mild-mannered than their canon selves.

This shouldn't be too long so real quick, Shokora is rivalling with Peach, and Rosalina and Daisy are quick to be at each other's throats. Rosalina, as a nod to her cosmic canon self, is very spacey and kinda forgetful, though one look at Daisy and she switches to Kill Mode pretty much lol

Okay, so I ended up rambling again so I put the read more thing, and I REALLY ended up rambling again so I'm gonna reblog this with Waluigi's part of the story because oh my god I have more thoughts than I thought I did. ^-^

Wario, in taking over Shokora's role, actively ruled over his kingdom a few thousand years ago. I feel it's overall a fair amount of time, due to the language in the game ["...the ruins appear to be the pyramid of the sleeping princess of the king who reigned over the area long ago..." from one of the game guides.], and the fact that the kingdom isn't described in the present day. I take that last point to mean the kingdom doesn't exist anymore, and since the ruins were recently discovered, it HAD to have been absent for enough time that people forgot about it. SO! Princess Wario gets cursed a few thousand years from the present day into an amorphous but usually feline black blob, which while strips him of being able to reign his kingdom also keeps him alive that long so, eh, tradeoff. As I said, he IS more mild-mannered [after all, I don't think royalty, much less royalty that could afford having a golden pyramid and all the treasure you find in-game, can be made to be AS greedy as Canon-Wario is. Definitely still greedy, but he doesn't have to go treasure hunting or stealing anything, he can be civil X)], but it is still Wario, and he doesn't take that lying down. So although his efforts are fruitless, he spends that time trying to get into the Pyramid and take his kingdom back from the Golden Diva. When Shokora finds him, she finds a big black cat with ruffled whiskers that is very injured. Being the money-focused treasure hunter in this world, she wouldn't normally go out of her way to help anyone, but that cat was pretty hurt, and it's gonna be distracting her the whole time she's looting the ruins. And stars, if she ignores the cat and it dies?? She might have to hang up her treasure hunting hat!

So Shokora, somewhat begrudgingly, takes the cat into the city, gets it proper help [which proves very difficult. This cat has a temper, and seems to really want to be somewhere else.] and leaves it in a nice alley in Diamond City. [also sidenote, while Wario Land 4 begins with Wario almost running the cat over, cmon man thats your wife be careful, I think Princess Wario has never been there due to being so persistent at trying to regain his kingdom.] But when she gets back to the ruins, she finds out the cat had stowed away on her bike, and she watches it run up to the Pyramid and resume its previous attempted invasion. After some thinking, Shokora decides that there's something wrong with this cat in a good way, and with its knowledge of the ruins and Shokora's abilities+opposable thumbs, Wario Land 4 continues as normal, just with the roles swapped. At the end, Princess Wario gets his curse lifted, celebratory 'you saved me so you get a kiss', and bam he is now a part of the crew >:]

Waluigi is both chronologically and mentally much, much older. His kingdom, which used to stand where the Mushroom Kingdom is today, is long forgotten from the memory of modern people...

Aaaand that's where I'll leave this one off. I'll reblog right away with Waluigi's stuff and just go ahead and apologize in advance for that LMAO
