Got Caught In The Rain

I have some questions friend:

Which AUs do you think would be interesting for a Bobutter fanfic?

Do you think they could have been friends (like, real friends) in childhood? Supposing that for some reason PB's family moved from the Labrador Peninsula and went to live where the Horsemans live and BJ studies. I think PB would be interested in meeting BJ, and since BJ was most likely the recluse of the room, PB's attention would be welcome, but I still think he would envy PB for being happy so easily. And PB would have a totally different view of the world, since everything is perfect in his homeland.

What do you think the dynamic between them would be like if they were women? When you're a woman, you have a lot of social pressures, so I don't think BJ would have a sex life like he does in the series. This I say, as openly as a man like him takes it. I think she would feel much more rivalry with PB, and her relationship with Sarah (if she were a boy) would also be totally strange, or maybe it wouldn't happen at all? She would have much lower self-esteem for her body. As for PB, she would have much more gossip about her 3 ex-husbands. I mean, a woman her age with 3 failed marriages, what's her problem? And a woman that age with such young men? And I think she would have more pressure to have children. Which would lead to it not happening. Because.... BOOOM, PB is infertile (not sterile. Infertile. She has little chance of getting pregnant, but she could still do it.) So this could cause a lot of problems for the happy vision of the world that she would have. And she would clearly be a little obsessed with staying young, because no one could love an old woman(in her mind). So, would they be sadder?

hey!

first of all i want to say that EVERY au would be interesting for a bobutter fic 'cause we need more fics my glorious warriors.

secondly, kids au: oooh it would be fun!! them as kids interacting together... well i fantasize like this: if mr peanutbutter moves to san francisco with his family and, let's say, gets into the same class with bojack, he either immediately wins the attention of his classmates and becomes everyone's favorite, or first he needs some time to get used to new people and his new life, and bojack becomes his friend. in the first case, he has quite little contact with bojack, but when this happens it is always extremely friendly and easy. bojack also tries to be kind and pleasant to him because he is afraid to meet public condemnation, but in his soul over the years he begins to envy him and hate him more and more (for the same reasons as in the original). so there's not much chemistry between them, but it sounds more plausible. in the second case, pb due to the sudden change of environment shuts down for a while, but still tries to find friends among classmates, and since boj is not particularly sociable and most likely did not have many himself pb and he get closer. they spend a lot of time together, play and walk, watch cartoons, and really enjoy each other's company. that would be adorable!! mr peanutbutter would be practically the only ray of light in bojack's life, and he'd actually treasured him. but, in the end, pb gains popularity, earns a lot of friends, and... further at the discretion of the author. imo they would drift apart and bojack would hate him in the same way, but there would also be a more personal drama here hehe

tbh the idea of drawing how they play and have fun with each other as children sounds... very tempting

thirdly, genderswap au: surely if they are women they will be sadder..... 😔 but joking aside, i like your thoughts! i've never considered that idea so i don't have much to say. the only thing is, i think it would change a lot. because of the influence of social stereotypes and expectations they would grow up very different from their original versions, and most likely, as you mentioned, they'd have other problems and development paths. i'd be interested to read about it in the fanfiction, yes!

thank you for your thoughts my pal!

life partners au: teenage years

i wanted to write SO MANY things but it seems like my brain DOESN'T work at all, so please take this i hope you understand what i tried to convey

mostly they're just two best friends who argue about stuff all the time, get into all kinds of trouble together (usually pb's fault ofc) and value each other very much. also childhood crush on the part of both of them, which pb doesn't realize at all (since it is normal for him to love others and he cannot specifically identify these feelings as something more romantic), but bojack begins to realize closer to the age of 16 and is simply horrified by this (then he will convince himself that imagination just ran wild anyway), and all this mess continues until they turn 25-27 and enter into an official relationship yeahhh

he was there that whole time

poor bojack… both his parents died, it must be so hard for him… yeah his mother was ehhh……. are we in the right parlour by the way… i wanna go home…. but i have to be here for him… it seems so difficult to make a speech at a funeral, bojack is doing good… WAIT WHAT DID HE CALL HIS MOM-

i want to thank every mr peanutbutter enjoyer you are all COOL AS HELL i hope you have a great day and great life, there aren't many of you, but i'm with you. don't be afraid to ask to draw him any way you want. we need to expand the amount of content with this magnificent character, he definitely deserves it
