If I Was Desperate For Kudos I Would Not Be Out Here Posting Villain Ships, Minor Character Rarepairs,

BRO WHY DO THEY KEEP MAKING HICCUP LESS PATHETIC IN EACH PIECE OF MEDIA HES IN.

If anyone read the books, they knows he’s supposed to be the most pathetic, kicked dog, soaking wet cat guy ever. Then they made him in the movies, and sure in the first movie he’s kinda pathetic, BUT IN THE FOLLOWING MOVIES HES LESS PATHETIC AND KINDA HOT??? LIKE STOP BRING BACK MY SAD LITTLE MAN.

And then in the live action(either going to suck or be ok) HE DOESNT LOOK PATHETIC AT ALL. HE LOOKS LIKE RTTE HICCUP WHO ISNT PATHETIC IN THE SLIGHTEST.

BRING BACK PATHETIC MEN PLEASE BRING BACK MY USELESS LITTLE TWELVE YEAR OLD NERD WHO CAN SPEAK TO DRAGONS NOT THIS FLYING GUY WHOS ACTUALLY COOL FOR THE LOVE LF GOD.

Barcode.....

i just wanted to be a regular fan i didn’t choose this

something something hugo letting his hair down and allowing his vision to be partially obscured, trusting others to keep watch, not being on guard, letting himself rest for once

something something varian revealing what he’s kept hidden and protected despite the risk of being hurt in the process, and he ends up being held

i don't know if you've gotten an ask like this before but i just love hugo so much. do you have any headcanons for him that you must share with the public (TELL ME TELL ME NOW I BEG)

Yayyy Hugo headcanon time!!

He’s a bottle blonde, whether it’s cuz his natural hair is brunette or another shade of blonde

Hugo cannot swim at all. Like, my guy was PANICKING during the water trial

He sees Donnie as his mother

Doesn’t like sweet things because he doesn’t have a sugar tolerance after spending so much of his life in poverty (got this from the silent opera)

Unlabeled in terms of sexuality. I feel like he either wouldn’t care or wouldn’t have time to figure out a label for himself and settles for “I’m attracted to the person, not the gender”

Him wearing his hair down around the others is some kind of metaphor for letting his guard down (will die on this hill)

Knew about Varian being the Alchemist before Varian told everyone

This ^^ being said, he also freaked out once he found out/realized because he idolized the Alchemist the way Varian did Flynn Ryder

Sees Nuru as his sister (I LOVE THEIR FRIENDSHIP)

Nuru is his maid of honor at his and Varian’s wedding

Yong is his best man ^^

Dropped a piano on Eugene’s head when they were on a thieving job years ago 😼

Born to wear his heart on his sleeve, forced to keep it locked away. He’s such a lover boy at heart

Almost left Corona after the trials were over because he thought it would be “better for everyone” but Varian convinced him to stay

Took him years to get used to living in the castle

Forged his and Varian’s wedding rings because I think it’s the sweetest thing ever (got this from dasketcherz)

Tells Yong stories until he falls asleep (at first he did it to brag about his adventures as a thief, but he grew to genuinely enjoy it)

Constantly incorporating magic into his engineering

There’s a lot more but these are just what I could think of on the spot 🫡

Thank you for the ask <333

idk, chris sonnenburg. if you didn’t want your character to be adored by the fans, maybe don’t make him such a little goob.

look at ‘im.

also, maybe don’t make him one of the most compassionate people in the show who only wanted to make positive change for the people he cherished— *i am dragged off of my soapbox*

Gimmie your Donella headcanons pretty pls

well… only because you said pretty pls

evil lesbian time

-she has used her braid to strangle a man before. this was in front of hugo, but he was ten years old, so he was practically an adult. it’s fine.

-she used to be very protective about her lab journals, but ulla started doodling around her notes and donella gradually warmed up to it. (then they started to drift apart, and ulla began her own journal that she never let donella see, and donella was left to trace the loops of ulla’s handwriting even before ulla was gone.)

-she usually made it a policy not to hire child soldiers, but hugo was the best thief she’d ever seen. she tested him & his instincts for a while before deciding to raise him herself.

-on that note, she does love hugo in a way, but donella’s mind is very priority-organized, and hugo ranks low on that list.

-she prefers mechanical weapons to chemical ones. her dagger is her go-to in a 1v1 fight, though.

-slightly civil to quirin. slightly. a long time ago.

-very defensive, even with those she half-trusts. they have to be out to get her, otherwise, why would they be saying this?

-constant, well-hidden paranoia. she’s climbed so far but her position is so precarious.

-she was raised in a very unstable home that she left as soon as she could. either she was an orphan or she was brought up by someone who parented her like she parents hugo.

-she only got truly, unconditionally attached to someone once, and that woman disappeared for almost two decades. ulla was always going to disappear, and donella was always going to be left.

very good analysis and i am honored you spent so long on it!

My critique with season-3 Rapunzel is that Cass hurting Eugene in “Cassandra’s Revenge” should have been the last straw, in my opinion. Or, if not that, then when she took over Corona. Or, if not that, then when she stole the Sundrop from Rapunzel.

It would have served both characters so well to have Rapunzel give up on Cass, even temporarily, so that Cass could realize that this is having consequences she doesn’t want. And so Rapunzel can display that polarizing mentality we’ve come to expect from her. And so little kids and tweens— and even teenagers and adults— watching this don’t walk away with the lesson that the person who’s hurting you has their better self “still in there”, and you just have to try hard enough to save them. That’s a thing I’ve heard from parents who stopped letting their kids watch after the third season.

just for clarification:

disliking parts of the way rapunzel’s character was handled in the show =/= disliking her.

movie!rapunzel means a lot to me personally, and i absolutely adore some aspects of her character in the show. i think she’s loving, creative, funny, intelligent, and she tries her best to help the people around her.

if i have a critique with her in the show, it’s because i believe that isn’t how she’d behave as someone who went through the events of the movie. or maybe i look at how she acts for one episode of the show, compare it to the foundation they’ve established in an earlier episode, and find that they contrast one another. my criticisms are for the inconsistent or out-of-character writing, not for rapunzel herself. i understand she has flaws; i just wish they were addressed properly and that she didn’t always have to be in the right.

you’re welcome to reblog this if you feel the same way.

disliking parts of the way rapunzel’s character was handled in the show =/= disliking rapunzel.

I think they could be friends….

that’s what i’ve been screaming

Like me personally I think we should allow Nuru to be fragile every once in a while because she’s literally just a girl. Not in the barely-disguised-misogyny way but in the was that she’s LITERALLY just a girl, she’s like sixteen, she’s a child, and she already spent her entire life cosplaying Atlas and having to be strong for her people, allowing her her emotions is not a terrible awful crime and it does not make her any less capable. If Varian and Hugo can be allowed their emotional complexities and hundreds of thousands of breakdowns and still be capable and ass-kicking then guess what, so does Nuru

What are some of your favorite Hugo headcanons because I love seeing what people think of him

AH IT’S HAPPENING

-i love robotic arm hugo. i think it’s an absolutely fantastic concept. however, if that were the case, he’d either have to have lost his arm or been born without it. either way, i imagine donella had to do surgery both on his shoulder and his brain to attach it, which gives him phantom pains. varian’s noticed that hugo tends to use his human arm for things, but he didn’t put it together until he grabbed hugo’s metal wrist a bit too hard and saw him wince.

-he’s insecure about his singing voice and usually sings out of key to tick people off, but when he actually tries to sing— be it to calm someone down, or serenade varian— it sounds incredible.

-he has worn a dress to smuggle stolen objects in, multiple times. that made him begin to feel introspective before he Noped himself right out of that spiral. (i think he’s genderfluid/genderqueer, but he’s usually okay with being called he/him when he knows it’s someone who would adjust the term if asked.)

-he does Not like bugs. bugs of any kind. even butterflies are pushing it.

-the absolute biggest sap, but all on the inside. varian loves in feelings and gestures, and he does great with words of affirmation, but hugo’s mind is like a poetry mill that never stops. if anyone was able to tell what yearning, dramatic thoughts he was thinking, they would never let him hear the end of it.

-he had a celebrity crush on the alchemist of old corona. and eight different conspiracy theories. this is a pretty common hc but i love it.

-attracted to varian’s “villain voice”. nuru judges him so hard for that.

-a huge love language of his is physical touch, but he’s trained himself out of it. fast forward a few years after the events of vat7k, and you will see hugo glomping onto his chosen people.

-horrible at art. he can draw blueprints and schematics, but he cannot draw people. he’s only managed to draw his robot mouse by thinking of her as various mechanical parts. he tried to draw himself once at eight and once at nineteen and both drawings look the same.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE ASK 😭 NEVER HESITATE TO SEND THEM
