Finally, I Now Have My Own BB Oc! I Wanted To Make One For A While But I Didn't Have An Idea How To Place

"He's gone."

Guys if y'all don't go read my buddy @theangrypomeranian 's fanfic Baby Steps, I'll come find you and read it aloud to you. It's soft and makes me feel safe. Hhhhhh

I mean, Belle is commonly typed as an INFP, so this isn't that surprising. What is surprising is that Beast is also typed as an ESTP according to Funky MBTI Fiction. As much as I crave more INFPxESTP relationships that are actually end game in fiction, idk I can't help but feel that I always pictured Beast as an introvert. I think it's because of my previous viewings of Beast being typed as either an ISFP or ISTP. I mean, I'm all for Beast being an ESTP though if it means I get more INFPxESTP fictional relationship examples out of this. XD

Function Order: Fi-Ne-Si-Te Even though Belle has a pleasant way with people and doesn’t go out of her way to offend them (even softening her response to Gaston’s proposal by insisting “I don’t deserve you”), she doesn’t really attempt to mold her behavior to that of the townspeople or change herself in any way to fit into their lives (despite wishing she had someone to talk to).

Zekina Week 2023: Day 6 Beach

I have been waiting two days to post this! This is my favorite of the bunch and hope to color it one of these days. I've been waiting for more Zeke playing a guitar content but fanfics usually have him as a drummer. So I decided to be the change I wanted to see in the world. XD

I'll leave it to your interpretation of what Zeke is singing to Tina. I definitely have some ideas for what the song could be, but I'm personally having trouble choosing myself. Anyway, I know I'm late with the other two prompts. I'm going to do my best to finish the rest though so I can complete the set. I really wanted to do the prompts I missed as drabbles so I can practice my writing.

Enough about future plans though. I hope you enjoy the sketch as much as I do. X3

Saw This in “The Oeder Games” and Wanted to Share.

At the beginning of the episode, I notice that Zeke's dad was sitting at a table with a lady in a blue blouse, some guy in a blue tie, and Zeke. More than that, the lady was sitting next to Zeke in the longer shots. (who knows where Zeke goes when they get closer though. XD) I notice she's either close to Zeke or Zeke's dad as seen in the images below.

So since Cheryl has no canon face as of this moment, I headcanon that the blue blouse lady is Cheryl. Though, feel free to say I'm wrong and she appears in another episode under another name because I honestly want to know. I don't keep up with all the bg characters of BB so I'm not sure if the lady is in any other episodes or not. I also want to keep an eye out for the guy that's next to Zeke's dad in the first screenshot. I want to say he's Zeke's 44-year-old brother, but I'm not sure if he's already a character with his own lore separate from Zeke's family. The character he looks the most like, at least from what I found so far is Glen. I don't think he's Glen though because Glen has darker brown hair and the hair is not as smooth (also I think Glen has slightly tanner skin). Hopefully, I'll find him outside of this episode one of these days. Also, since Zeke's dad doesn't necessarily look like someone who could have a 44-year-old son, here's my headcanon. Zeke's 44-year-old is the result of teen pregnancy and Zeke's dad is between his late 50s and early 60s. He also dyes his balding hair to make himself feel younger than he is. Back to maybe Cheryl. I suppose there's still a possibility that the lady could be Zeke's bio mom and she just got a bigger redesign compared to Zeke's dad from what he looked like in "The Belchies".

Then again, we still don't know if this lady from "The Belchies" was an early design for Cheryl or not either. Until we get an episode that actually reveals Cheryl or Zeke's bio mom, these two designs are all I have to go off of. So Occam's razor, since Cheryl gets talked about more than his bio mom, I'm going to assume the blue blouse lady is Cheryl and not his bio mom or some random woman until proven otherwise. TLDR, I headcanon the blue shirt lady as Zeke's stepmom but I'm still not sure if she could be just a random bg character with her own thing or even a redesign of Zeke's bio mom (if the woman from "The Belchies" wasn't a proto Cheryl that is). Many questions are left unanswered for now and not much proof to grasp, the nature of many headcanons for brief bg characters.

@mambocat I don’t know if you’ll care about my opinion or not but here it goes. When I was younger I used to not like the idea of Sonic with humans. Mostly because of my exposure to the story of Sonic X. I hated Chris like the majority of the fandom. I guess when I finally was able to play the adventure games I associated the humans with Chris and not like them automatically. As I got older I started to realize, ”Wait, Dr. Eggman is a human so why shouldn't there be others?” I’m fine with humans being with Sonic now because that’s how it always was intended. We just don’t see humans as much in other games because humans have their own countries while Mobians have their’s. I like to think the Sonic and human relationship is like the humans and Crystal gems on Steven Universe. They know he exists but they don’t bother asking questions except for a select few. It’s been awhile since I played a Sonic game with humans so i don’t know how much my headcanon holds.

So Sonic shouldn’t be getting any crap from people just because he’s different. That’s what it all comes down to.

So I need to just take a moment to poop on everyone’s party…I just watched the trailer for “Super Mario Odyssey,” and while it does indeed look very interesting, I can’t help but feel salty over the double standard being utilized here.

So the trailer starts with what appears to be New York or some other large REAL WORLD city, with actual humans - as in realistic ones - walking around minding their own business, and then SUDDENLY here comes Mario with his signature whoo hoo to turn everything into fodder for his cartoon physics.

Now that in and of itself is not a bad thing, no problem with the premise itself. My issue is…fairly simple to understand and may even come off as petty but I’ll risk it regardless.

If everyone is excited about Mario being in the real world…

WHY IN GOD’S NAME WAS IT CONSIDERED A HORRIBLE IDEA FOR SONIC AND STILL IS TO THIS DAY?!

As soon as Mario does it, all that talk about “oh Sonic is a cartoon hedgehog and he doesn’t belong in a realistic universe” goes out the window. You can’t praise Mario for doing it and then say Sonic doesn’t belong when they’re both video game characters who are clearly “out of place” in the world they’re in.

The only difference I can foresee happening here is that Mario won’t have much of a “story” as usual despite the name “odyssey” and Mario of course won’t talk.

And if that does turn out to be the key difference, then Sonic being in the real world was never the problem as so many people claim. The issue was the story itself. How dare someone take a silent protagonist and try to give him a personality?

SEGA tried everything to “backpedal” from the hyper realistic art style, making the humans more cartoony as opposed to actually looking like real life humans. But it didn’t matter, Sonic was still in the “real” world and thus it was bad.

Only when humans (sans Eggman) were cut out altogether were so-called fans happy with the world Sonic lived in again. Where all the humans? Who cares, Sonic shouldn’t be with humans anyway.

But apparently this is okay, because it’s Mario instead of Sonic. Real humans? Yeah that’s okay! It’s about time Mario ventured past the Mushroom Kingdom a little bit!

I call BS, hard.

Since Mario did what he did, then I don’t wanna hear one godforsaken complaint from ANYONE if Project 2017 decides to go back to using human background characters.

I’ve gotten into debates with gamer friends of mine who say that Sonic in the real world (Earth) actively angers them. I should ask them how they feel about Mario and see if they expose their own hypocrisy.

I’m sorry if this angers anyone who thinks I’m complaining too early, but again, it’s not what Mario did that bothers me, it’s that people will inevitably complain if/when Sonic decides to do the EXACT SAME THING while Mario gets praise for it.

That’s why I say I don’t wanna see anyone get angry with Sonic in the real world…but we all know they will. Because it’s Sonic.

Poor guy, he’s doomed to be hated for all of eternity.

Oh my word! And to think all this time I thought Shadow wouldn’t like the concept of eating and/or wouldn’t need to (like Pearl). My view on Shadow just got so much better XD!

@superotakugirl1993 I hope you appreciate this.

everytime i see anything with shadow in it i think of this interview thing from like 2005

this is an official thing sonic team did shadow the hedgehog canonically likes doritos

I have Asperger's syndrome myself, but I feel I could still use this just in case my “write what you know” method is more underdeveloped than I thought. Anyway, this will definitely be useful.

writing an autistic character when you are not autistic - a masterpost

completely double spaced version on google docs here – this post is more blocky for the sake of people’s dashboards, but still long so people will be less likely to glaze over it. my apologies if that makes it hard to read

things to look for and avoid in an autistic character

• symptoms only manifesting as “nonverbal and rocking” • super smart / living calculator • super dumb / doesn’t understand anything • all the symptoms you can come up with for them are “awkward” and “has special interest(s)” (please do more research) • trains, technology, and/or math as special interests • acting like a child • getting treated like a baby • unreasonably cruel and uncaring about others’ reactions to them being cruel • if they’re comparable to sheldon from the big bang theory, start over • animal comparisons • a lack of feelings • please no stories about what it’s like to be autistic told by allistics

the right way to write an autistic person

• lots of symptoms, including secondary ones not included on a general diagnosis requirement list (here’s a list i rather like that was made by an autistic person – their blog is also a good resource) • having a good amount of general knowledge and actually talking about it (i cannot believe that i have to say this) • talking about things outside of special interests (again…. come on……….) (special interests are usually the default things our brains go to when theres no stimulation or we want to entertain ourselves – it isn’t literally all we think or talk about ever. if a conversation has no connections to a special interest, reconsider having your autistic character bring it up in a context that is not an introduction.) • explicitly expressed to be capable of attraction and romantic feelings – if your character is an adult, add sexual feelings to this point • capable of general functioning, just with a disability that makes it more difficult – not a walking disability (….sigh) • a wide amount of feelings and emotional turmoil (but perhaps only being able to express it in limited ways) • we’re people • just people whose brains are wired differently

things to avoid in research for an autistic character

• autism moms / autism blogs and websites not run by autistic people • any affiliation with autism $peaks means you should walk away and never look back • a scientist trying to create explanations for what autistic people do without actually asking / not mentioning asking autistic people • anything about a cure for autism • a person that “worked with autistic kids” phrased in the same way as “worked with animals” • talking about autistic people as if they are mysteries, are like animals, or are otherwise othered weirdos instead of people

things to look for in research for an autistic character

• actual autistic people talking about their experiences and symptoms • just stick to that and you’re good but it’s hard to find sometimes ngl. just look for the above red flags

things i would personally like to see in an autistic character

• less easy to swallow sadness and more destructive anger. i would love to see a canonically autistic character who was frustrated easily by small things and had trouble communicating why • not a story about being autistic, a story that happens to have a character or characters who are autistic – it isn’t pointed out or questioned, they’re right at home with the rest of the cast and not othered (a la symmetra from overwatch) • intensive sensory issues / small sounds making large reactions • clear communications about not liking x sensory thing (for example being touched) • poor motor skills / clumsiness and not being laughed at for it • walking funny (body bent downwards, walking very fast, walking slowly, big strides, shuffling, stiffness, etc)  – no one treats it as if it’s funny or something totally strange • a big personality that has a presence so they can’t be cast aside (but feel free to have quiet characters too) – if this was along with being nonverbal they would probably leap to being one of my favorite characters ever • a fear of asking for clarification on sarcasm or jokes because of past experiences and an arc about the character becoming more comfortable asking questions

>> if any fellow autistic people want to add something, feel free <<

allistics are encouraged to rb this

Cute story that I think really captures the humor of the show well!

And Zeke smelled so good, like cinnamon and sweat.

First piece submitted for me this year! I wanted to do Debmund piece with the pair cosplaying as other pairs, whether canon or not that inspired them. I do feel while I most likely have some that are left out whether intentionally or not, these are the ones I feel had the most important impact on the process I had with these characters. My intent was to one, have fun with the cosplay aspect of it and two, to provide something to the people that like my character. I want to make a fanfiction with my character in it someday and finally provide closure for some people. Until then though, this is just something to show my thought process as I developed the ship in my headspace over the years. I also finally have closure on making Harold and Rhonda as Ares and Aphrodite! Woo, that was a clear connection that I wanted to do for so long.

Hey Arnold Headcanon, Lila’s Mother

I know Craig himself said Lila’s mom “most likely died”, but that’s the thing, most likely. The way he said it made it seem like he wasn’t completely sold on that story idea. It’s as if he might change it in the future.

This is where my headcanon comes in, what if Lila’s mom never died in the first place, what if it’s somebody we already saw.

What if Lila’s mother is actually Betty from the episode “Eugene, Eugene!”?

Think about it, they look eerily similar when Betty was a child besides the hair color. Betty could have been in love with Mr. Leichliter, but somewhere along the line she started fearing that being with him wouldn’t keep her safe financially, so she settles down with Mr. Sawyer because at least she knew that she wouldn’t have to worry of the possibility of living with a starving artist (Kind of similar to the storyline of “State Fair” the book, not the musical). She grew unhappy with her life and decided that she couldn’t take the life as a farmer’s wife anymore and decided to live the life she never had while attempting to find her true love. Mr. Sawyer heartbroken lies to Lila by telling her that Betty died because that was easier than telling her that they weren’t good enough for her.

Is this most likely not true? Definitely so! It’s fun to speculate and make things more complex than Lila’s mother died from “off-camera” disease anyway. This also makes a nice parallel with Lila on how her and Betty both deal with their romantic relationships.

I had this idea when I first saw the girl, but I really didn’t think much of it until I was trying to think of a name for Lila’s mom. I was going for names that sounded similar to Becky due to the name of Tom Sawyer’s name of his main love interest. I thought Betty Thatcher was a good choice until I saw that there was a character already named that, which was this exact character. So everything just clicked. Now I need to find a new headcanon name for Lila’s mom in case I start preferring the dead mom thing over this. I’m thinking either Betsy or Bessie.

BTW my headcanon name for Lila’s dad is Tim.
