i drew it because i was very frustrated
this is what mr peanutbutter sees every day now
okay i want to put my two cents in that whole children thing too
tbh i've never thought about the idea of them having children, together or separately, but! if (could it be considered the 293948th au? probably not) hollyhock forgave bojack after the end of the show, and they somehow patched things up with each other... that would be... cool. i just feel sorry for this old dummy, and his interactions with her were not very successful but strangely sweet... and, in fact, if he still had a more or less close relationship with not only a member of his family, but also with another horse, it would be a great growth for the character i think.
bojack would be extremely awkward with her then. he would choose every word he says and try as hard as he could not to disappoint hollyhock again. he would also be very happy every time she texted/called or even visited them, but still remain kinda low-key due to his self-doubt?
pb would be completely comfortable! oh it's bojack's sister! she's sweet! so they wouldn't have any problems. he'd most likely even act as some kind of intermediary between them.
they'd also try soooo hard to stay on the same wavelength with her. because of the age difference it would be a liiittle difficult! pb sends hollyhock funny "meme-style pictures" every time he sees them (stoned fox or pepe the frog at best) and hollyhock responds with a simple "lol" or "haha" quietly cringing. bojack realizes that this is not what makes modern youth laugh and grumbles every time but pb doesn't listen to him.
from time to time hollyhock would also recommend them some games or recently released cartoons/tv series and they would actually play/watch them! just imagine how these two go through undertale together for example... pb openly sobs over the ending while bojack sits with a stony face trying to hold back tears. or she would recommend her favorite bands/singers and it would be mitski or will wood (?!?!)
anyway, i love this cliched concept with parents who have that "how do you do fellow kids" vibe and their cringing child, which is so often used in sitcoms. it brings me happiness and heals my soul
mr peanutbutter forced (sweetly invited) bojack to go shopping together

i saw this and i can't help it
got caught in the rain
Thank you so much for being so kind and giving us your art! Serious. About Crackerjack, ideas about him may change in my mind, but, I think I would like him to have the classic diamond shape on his forehead, a gap between his teeth like his paternal grandmother, black hair like Bojack, but it would be straighter and well-behaved, and the brown skin of his great-grandfather or great-grandmother. He likes more *elegant* clothes? Or even sport style because PB could always take him to exercise he feels more confident. But he also often dresses like his parents. A similar style. As a teenager he could be described as "cool". In adult life he is more of a businessman. And I think he would be a lawyer. He, along with his brothers, certainly entered the world of child actors, because they are the children of two stars (well, one star, since Bojack's career was kind of ruined). Although he liked the fun part of doing a series, or program, or whatever, he really didn't like how people wanted to pry into his life or the dark parts of Showbiz.
thank you!
interesting design! and i like that eventually he will become a lawyer and his work will not be related to the entertainment industry. although the kids might work as actors for a while, as you say (bobutters would be against it but maybe crackerjack was in his "daaad i'm an adult i can do whatever i want" phase and they gave up), but still decided not to get involved directly with it (at least crackerjack did).
i'd be glad to draw his design some day, if you don't mind! and i love formal wear. just a reminder. so it would be cool
thank you for your thoughts again, i really have a lot of fun making art based on the au!
