Made Me Think of Zekina

I found this when I was searching for "After All" covers. I think both of the songs combined fit the vibe I intended for adult Zekina in my headcanons. Two idiot friends that are too stubborn/scared to open up to each other about their feelings. One tease flirts/jokes around but they don't open up about their feelings in a serious manner while the other denies that they ever had feelings other than platonic from the start, despite the evidence to the contrary. (For example, Zeke would tease about how Tina must have liked him at least a little bit back when they were 13. Tina would claim that no such crush existed and he has no proof otherwise. Zeke reminds her that he wasn't the one that kissed her when she thought the world was ending. Tina would claim the "Apoca lips" was merely a pity kiss. The world was ending and she figured might as well throw a bone to the boy that claimed was going to marry her since it was never going to happen anyway. The kiss never would have happened in the first place if they hadn't bumped into each other by accident. Zeke would retort with a chortle, "That was some pity kiss then!" Very strong denial and suppression on Tina's part in short lol.) Still after all the failed dates with other people they've had, they still always find themselves back in the same place, in each other's embrace. They're most honest with themselves in their minds when they just hug each other, no words spoken. Will the fears subside enough for them to admit they want to start something more than platonic though? Basically, the male singer fits perfectly for Zeke and the female singer for Tina except for some lyrics. The starting part is basically all Tina "You ask me if I love you And I choke on my reply I'd rather hurt you, honestly Than mislead you with a lie And who am I to judge you On what you say or do? I'm only just beginning To see the real you" Meanwhile, this part fits more of Zeke definitely. "A hesitant prize fighter Still trapped within my youth" As well as "I still remember when your kiss was so brand new"

Zekina Touch Tank Idea I Could Use Help On:

Okay, it's so super clear to me that the sea cucumber is the perfect sea creature to represent Zeke. There's just so much about the sea cucumber that relates to Zeke in hilarious ways. The most important one is that the sea cucumber is that it's a creature that is always helping others but rarely gets anything back. The majority of their relationships are more commensal than symbiotic, they aren't being harmed but they aren't gaining anything either. You can also do the pun Zeke u cumber. It's not the best pun but it's something. XD

My problem is that I don't know which sea creature could represent Tina. I have some candidates but I would really like some input as well because I'm not sure which is the best to choose? Here's the list I have so far. 1. Tuna (for the pun for Tina and an opportunity for Zeke to say "you tuna me on". A redemption for his canned Tina joke and general attitude in "Presto Tina-O" lol) 2. Kina (a New Zealand sea urchin and another Tina pun opportunity and an "I'm kina you" joke ((like I'm keen on you if that wasn't obvious already)), Sea urchins do eat sea cucumbers, but they also are part of the same family as sea cucumbers and starfish so make of that what you will) 3. Hermit Crab (least favorite option. While Saucy the hermit carb is important to Zekina lore, hermit crabs eat sea cucumbers so not a good choice) 4. Shrimp (Nothing pun-worthy, but shrimp does technically have the most symbiotic relationship to sea cucumbers, the shrimp still benefits more though. There's also something poetic you can do with shrimp seeing more colors than other creatures) 5. Sea Cucumber (I mean, I guess Tina probably could see herself as a sea cucumber as well, but this is my second least favorite option because it's boring) So I would appreciate any feedback on which one you like best for Tina. I really want a sea creature that fits Tina for her and Zeke's dynamic. My favorite is between the shrimp and the kina. Let the aquatic themes prevail for these two! XD

More Bob’s Burgers Headcanons For Tina and Zeke Because Why Not!

Tina: 1. Her full first name is Martina which makes her Martina Ruth Belcher. Linda thought the name Martina was a good idea at the time, until it wasn't. Now she is forever known as Tina except for her birth certificate and other legal documents.

2. Her eyes are blue (I don't care that Tina's eyes were brown in the Archer episode, I'm going with her blue eye color that was revealed in the Bob's Burgers story, "The Makeup".

3. Tina has a hard time with romance at her age because she loves the longing. Even when drama happens in her romance she secretly is okay with the negative outcomes because it fuels her limerence. That's why she struggled with asking Jimmy Jr. to be official with her in the movie. She was so afraid of him saying yes because then things would become real and she wouldn't have her limerance to fall back on anymore once the real Jimmy Jr killed fantasy Jimmy Jr for good. She fears having trouble finding romance in the mundane and never being satisfied because of all the fantasy hours she built up over the years. With Jimmy Jr finding her barrettecklace though, she realizes she's willing to try and move past her limerence because she learns that she can still find romance even in the smallest gestures. It may not be the Romeo and Juliet, star-crossed lovers drama she always wanted, but it was hers and she would be okay with that. 4. Another reason for her limerence is because she fears once things become real for her, they will be gone in an instant once the guy decides she wasn't enough. At least in her fantasy she can believe she will always be enough, the apple of her dream boy's eyes, and she will never have to worry about being tossed aside like trash.

5. After her break up with Jimmy Jr. around the end of high school, she vows to never put in as many fantasy hours for a boy as she did for him at least until she's sure she's safe to do so. She just can't handle that pain anymore. She still will be boy crazy, she just has a limit to how long she will fantasize about her crushes before she dates them now.

6. She has a box full of wedding plans/ideas for herself and her whole family, even Bob and Linda just in case they ever have the money to want to renew their vows with a fancier wedding. Gayle is also included as well. 7. As she gets older, she slowly starts dating more guys against her type of tall, skinny guys with long necks, perfectly shaped butts, and accents because she desperately doesn't want to end up like Gayle all because she had too high standards.

8. Tina's birthday is July 8th, 2008, I will accept nothing else. (Blame the Bob's Burger wiki for saying that it was her birthday! It's gone now but it was there! I refuse to let go that Tina, a character I kin has the same birthday as me! XD) 9. Tina is autistic but undiagnosed. That's not breaking new ground but that's my headcanon. 10. Tina grows up to be the smallest of the Belcher kids. She's slightly smaller than Linda while Gene is his mom's height while Louise is the tallest in between Bob's and Linda's height.

11. When Tina is 16 she will juggle working at her family restaurant, babysitting, and at a book store to afford college or whatever if she decides not to go to college. She has her hands full especially when she still has two more years of school.

Zeke: 1. Zeke's full name is Ezekiel Anthony Connor. 2. His birthday is March 11th, 2008 ( March 11th is the release date of "The Belchies", Zeke's first appearance. I couldn't use Bobby Tisdale's birthday because I couldn't find it so this was the next best thing). 3. Zeke's grandma's name is Daniella and his grandpa was named Anthony. 4. He was raised mostly by his grandparents until his grandpa died and his grandma couldn't take care of him anymore and had to be put in a home. 5. Curt from Bob's flashback in "Two for Tina" is Zeke's 44-year-old brother (assuming it's a half-brother) because I think it's funny and they share a voice actor. 6. Zeke's dad is a con artist that sells cheaply made crap of all kinds and that's why they moved around a lot. Zeke's dad would be good at what he does since it is revealed he owns a jacuzzi tub in "Tina and the Real Ghost". Though he could be bad at it and just squanders his money anyway instead of providing for his kid. 7. Zeke's mom was held back 4 times in school (if Harold from Hey Arnold can do it then so can she lol). She was 21 when she went to prom and was pregnant with Zeke. Still creepy as heck for a hypothetical 46-year-old to impregnate a 21 to 22-year-old, but not illegal. (I'm assuming Curt was born when Zeke's dad was 15 to be generous) 8. Zeke was an unwanted pregnancy. I can see Zeke's mom as a gold digger that was tricked into thinking Zeke's dad was more wealthy than he actually was. Zeke's mom wanted the easy way out because she was doing terribly in school and thought Zeke's dad could be her way in. She got pregnant by accident and neither of them was ready for it. Zeke's parents got married and tried to make it work but they just didn't work as a couple. Zeke's dad got more custody than Zeke's mom in the divorce because he seemed slightly more stable at the time.

9. Before Cheryl, not a day went by without Zeke's dad making Zeke feel like a screw-up. No matter how much he tries to help with his dad's business, it's never enough. 10. Zeke's relationship with his mom is not much better. She acts like she loves him but he can tell she's only doing what she thinks a mother is supposed to do and going through the motions. He can't help but feel that all she can see in him was her own mistakes. He still tries to see the best in both of his parents because he would go insane otherwise. 11. Zeke's grandparents were the few good role models in Zeke's home life. Cheryl, Zeke's stepmom later on would help get his dad's act together and Zeke will be forever grateful to her for that. She still has an issue with alcohol and is a shopaholic, but she is more present in Zeke's life than his bio mom is. 12. Zeke gets his love language from his grandparents. 13. Zeke has undiagnosed ADHD which explains his impulse control problem and why he gets bored very easily in "Tina and the Real Ghost".

14. Zeke grows up to be as tall as Bob but still shorter than Jimmy Jr. He's still stocky but his muscles balance out his stocky physique. He doesn't have a problem with being a big guy and is comfortable with himself. Just don't ask him why he's been putting more on his glutes lately because you won't get an answer. Definitely doing it for himself and not for anybody else yes siree bob. 15. At 16, Zeke would volunteers to help cover for Tina at Bob's Burgers during the times she's doing either at her book store job or babysitting job. 16. Zeke has green eyes.

Anyway, that's all. I tried to do more headcanons for them as characters rather shippy headcanons. Though a bit slipped through the cracks for both of them. Here's the height chart to compare the heights.

(Blue Bob is supposed to be Jimmy Sr Pesto's height but I guess like the show I'm trying to erase the character's existence on a subconscious level. XD)

Figures come from here. http://www.mrinitialman.com/OddsEnds/Sizes/compsizes.xhtml

When I think I'm done with the headcanons they just keep coming for some reason. Fingers crossed that I'm not too off base when it comes to Zeke's family. I'm basically placing my bets that his bio parents are terrible people and only his grandparents and Cheryl were good to him. I would hate to be eating crow later. XD

Burger Approval

@flufftober Prompt: "you've told your parents?"

Zeke’s palms were sweaty. His heart was racing. Suddenly, he thought about calling in sick, or even quitting outright. Anything to spare himself the judgement of Mr. Belcher who had been nice enough to give him a job in the first place. He hadn’t been this anxious this morning. That had come after talking to Tina, who had told him about telling her parents about their date that weekend.

“You told your parents?” Zeke’s voice had come out more strained than he would have liked, but anxiety squeezed his chest at the thought of Mr. Belcher’s disapproving frown. Zeke knew how the man had felt about boys and Tina, having heard enough criticisms of the boys Tina was interested in as they worked.

“Of course,” Tina had said, oblivious to Zeke’s internal panic, “Gene and Louise too.”

They had chatted briefly at lunch, the other Belcher siblings joining them. Gene and Louise had subjected him to exaggerated questions about his intentions with Tina and teased them about only realizing how they felt after working together after school, which culminated in Louise demanding the five dollars from their bet.

“I had five dollars on you two getting together in under six months,” Louise explained, pocketing the five.

“I thought you’d wait a year before one of you had finally decided to go away for college, only for the other to suddenly realize how you felt and race to the airport to declare your love,” Gene had fake-swooned onto the table as Louise rolled her eyes.

“You and mom were watching some corny Hallmark crap again, weren’t you?”

“It’s Mommy-Son-Rom-Com-Time and you’re just jealous!”

“As if,” Louise said, just as Tina had asked “how do I get invited?”

Louise and Gene’s bickering had made him feel better. He hadn’t realized that he was so worried about the younger Belcher’s reactions until that moment. This only made his nerves about facing their father even worse. Mr. Belcher had hired him only two months ago, after Zeke had dropped his resume off and explained his plans for a gap year. He had figured working at Bob’s Burgers would allow him time to figure out if he wanted to pursue culinary college over trade school. In his short time at the restaurant, Mr. Belcher had never pressured him into deciding anything before he was ready, only asking what Zeke wanted and taking the time to show him some skills Mr. Belcher had called training but definitely had nothing to do with making burgers.

In short, Zeke had great respect for the man, and didn’t want to disappoint him. It was why he had waited so long to ask Tina out, not wanting to seem like he had only wanted to work there to get her attention.

Now he stood at the door of the restaurant, cold sweat chilling his skin despite the June sun. Zeke had reached a hand to the door before snatching it back a few times, feeling anxiety bubble up with every attempt. It was when he saw the familiar figure of Mrs. Belcher coming out to the front with a plate of food for a customer did Zeke finally have the courage to open the door.

“Oh hi, sweetie, come on in,” her familiar greeting for Zeke called over her shoulder, “Bobby’s at the grill if you want to handle assembly, we got a bunch of UberSkips orders to fill.”

 “It’s UberEATS, Lin,” Mr. Belcher’s voice corrected from the back, “and the help would be appreciated.”

After a brief greeting that told him nothing of Mr. Belcher’s feelings, Zeke fell happily into the rhythm of putting together various burgers and handling fries. He had been so busy, with the end of the to-go orders had come a dinner rush (courtesy of Gene’s flyer distribution strategy of busking at Wonder Wharf), that he had almost forgotten his nerves about facing Mr. Belcher.

“So, Zeke,” Mr. Belcher started, sounding almost too casual as he flipped a lone burger, “Tina tells me that you two are going on a date.”

His stomach flipped, and Zeke swallowed before answering to prevent anymore cracking. “Uh, yeah,” Zeke said to which Mr. Belcher only hummed in response. It was a neutral sound that could mean approval or frustration.

As the silence stretched, Zeke found himself growing restless, until finally he blurted, “but if that’s some kind of conflict of interest, or you disapprove, you can let me go and I’ll find some place else-”

Mr. Belcher’s laugh stopped him mid-sentence. “Zeke, I’m not going to fire you for dating my daughter. If anything, I’m happy she’s not pining after some random guy in tight pants this time.”

Mr. Belcher turned to him, placing a hand on his shoulder, “Zeke, I think you have a lot of potential, no matter what you decide to do after your gap year you’re always welcome here, either as a customer or cook.”

“Really mean that, Mr. B?” Relief flooded through him so fast he almost slipped up his tomato slices.

“Of course, he does, sweetie haven’t you seen the burger of the day yet?” Mrs. Belcher had popped her head through the serving window, “you just be nice to my Teeny-Tina.”

Zeke nodded and got back to work on the last few orders of the night. When it was time to close up, Zeke volunteered to clean and lock the place up, allowing the Belchers to head upstairs early. As he set to cleaning the front end of the restaurant after prepping the kitchen, Zeke finally noticed what the burger of the day was: the Zucchina Burger, comes with a zucchini and feta fritter.

The Moment Zeke Saw Tina Differently Headcanon

In Bob's Burgers, it's clear that Zeke has feelings for Tina. When they started is up for debate though. @tacosandtouchtanks proposes that Zeke started having a crush on Tina a little before the season 5 episode, "Friends with Burger-fits" the episode that implied he had a crush on her in the first place. I'm inclined to follow that line of thinking as well because I refuse to think Zeke realized he had a crush on Tina before the season 4 episode, "Presto Tina-O". Zeke was at his worst in that episode and it still makes me mad seeing Jimmy Jr and Zeke laugh at Tina's anger (a bunch of jerks both of them, I had so many moments of being belittled when I got angry so it cut me deep seeing a character I kin go through the same).

I believe the moment Zeke starts to see Tina differently is in the season 5 episode, "Tina and the Real Ghost". Instead of getting mad that Tina would prank them in an already scary cemetery, Zeke would be super impressed by her and laugh it off later about how good she got him and the rest. More than that, he could have also been touched by her speech. While he had a lot to process about his contribution to Jeff and how he desperately wanted to believe in an afterlife, there was also Tina's reason. It's possible he could have thought later on how sad it was that all this started because Tina wanted to feel like she deserved more attention than the dismissiveness Jimmy Jr. did. Zeke couldn't understand why Jay Ju was so flaky with Tina. Zeke knew JJ liked Tina, heck he even tried to help him win her back from Josh.

Sure, Tina was creepy at times, awkward, and a fuddy-duddy. Still, even a weirdo like Tina didn't deserve to be taken for granted like that. He would give anything to have a girl like Tina like him like she likes Jay-Ju. Wait what?! What was he saying? There was no way he had a crush on Tina. This is Tina he was talking about. Sure he helped her and her siblings out in the past but he would have done that for any of his friends. After that denial, his mind would begin to recontextualize every interaction he had with her in the past. Once he was done with that he would have opened his eyes to the truth and he would have said, "Oh crap, I do like her!" While he wasn't going to deny his feelings now, there wasn't much he could do about it as long as Tina and Jimmy Jr. had whatever they had going on. Zeke was never one to give in and be a quitter though. So for now, he will just be carrying his lavender-scented torch for Tina. He doesn't plan to keep his feelings hidden, but he also won't let his feelings dictate him to not pursue other options either. His metaphorical torch will always be lit at his bedside giving him hope for the future, but won't stop him from living his best life in the present.

Once he found out that night he had a crush on Tina he would have hoped that love would be like gas and pass very soon. Little did he know love was more like appendicitis. Later, Zeke would be fine with Tina doing whatever she needed to do to figure herself out because he was confident about who would be the one to come out on top in the end. One way or another he was going to get her. One thing is for certain is that Zeke would be sure to make more of an effort to pay attention to Tina after the Jeff incident and it shows in Oeder Games. XD

Bob's Burgers Incorrect Quotes 1:

Tina: *In hall monitor mode, holding down a lying classmate against a locker to get information out of him.* Zeke: I'm so in love with her right now. Louise: What? Zeke: Nothing!

Personally, My favorite Bob's Burgers Comic for a "Zekina" moment is issue #2 of the 2015 Bob's Burgers Comic series. It's in the story, Jungle Tina, sure at first Zeke was hostile toward Tina, but then he quickly changed when she talked about how she could beat Jimmy Jr because of her experience wrestling animals. Then the rest of the story is basically just Zeke agreeing with Tina that Jimmy Jr was being a tool. https://bobs-burgers.fandom.com/wiki/Issue_2 More than that, I really love this issue for cover B

I really love the art style of the cover but more than that, I love how cute Zeke, Tina, and Jimmy Jr. are being. Sure, this is more of a win for Jimmy JrxTina shippers than it is for Zekina shippers, but just look at Zeke.

They could have drawn him looking at Jimmy Jr being happy for him that he's getting his girl, but he's looking at Tina instead. It can still be interpreted as Zeke being happy for Jimmy Junior but I also like to interpret it as him just being happy seeing Tina so happy to be with her crush, even if it's not with him. I mean This comic came out on August 5th, 2015 while Zeke's declaration of marriage to Tina was said on January 4th of the same year. The math adds up if you want to overthink a cover, which I do! XD

Hello Zeke and Tina nation how do we feel about the Bob’s Burgers comics and the not-so-subtle thing those two seem to have going on in a lot of Tina’s stories

I wanted to have a little fun and make a Zekina playlist. I didn't want to put in all the songs I have in other playlists that vaguely fit them though. So, I made a story out of this playlist. I even specifically used some songs that Steven Davis sang (a producer on Bob's Burgers) to hopefully make it have a better feel to the play list. So I'll just list the narrative of the songs that I'm intending to tell. 1. The song is basically my way to start off with vaguely similar vibes to the Zeke quote, "I'm gonna getcha". 2 - 6. Tina's pov for her relationship with Jimmy Jr. 7. Jimmy Jr.'s pov of the break up (get used to this one JJ because you're not getting anymore from your pov sorry lol) 8. Tina's pov of Jimmy Jr trying to get her back but it fails. 9-10. Tina dealing with the fallout of being single. 11. Tina's pov of her getting ready to move away to wherever she decides to go. 12. Tina and Zeke's pov of them both choosing to stay friends and go off to be free to see what life has for them. Though both secretly hope that they both will eventually come back to each other. 13. Tina and Zeke's pov of them reaffirming they are good friends. 14. Zeke's pov of feelings resurfacing again. 15. Zeke's pov of him taking action and getting it right this time. 16. Zeke's pov of him trying too hard. 17. Tina's pov of being worried if Zeke really is commitment trustworthy. 18. Zeke's pov of the same song that played for Tina about Jimmy Jr because callbacks are fun. 19 - 20. Tina's pov of her not being ready for diving deep into love again. 21 - 22. Zeke's pov of him being a stubborn, little gremlin. 23. Tina's pov of her finally giving in. 24. Still Tina's pov I just wanted a cute song to end the playlist. It's not the most smooth ending but the title is fitting for the whole "getcha" thing I mentioned earlier. It's also the intro song to a movie I used to like, "Letters to Juliet" in which someone made a Zekina connection to in a post (though I still honestly say some personalities don't completely fit but the concept is still good) https://www.tumblr.com/laterpaladudes/695583610873561089/ok-it-might-be-this-greeceitaly-vacation-that-im?source=share That's it but here are some bonus songs that didn't make the cut because they didn't quite fit the narrative I was going for. Your Stupid Face by Kaden MacKay

I'm so sad this didn't make the cut. I felt the beginning really was good for her original resentment towards Zeke but later the lyrics didn't really fit Tina's character. So now it's better for RudyxLouise, Shortaki from Hey Arnold, or any ship with an enemies-to-lovers dynamic. I Like You More Than I Thought by Maggery

Another song that fits Louise more than Tina, unfortunately. Best Friend by Laufy It could have worked for ZekexTina but it works so much better as a BobxLinda song in Bob's pov. Make it by Cody Fry Speaking of Bob, this song just really speaks to me for Bob and I wanted to share it.

Finally, that's it. Hope you found some new songs you like in the playlist or in the bonus links.

Bob's Burgers Zeke x Tina Head Canons and Story Scene Ideas.

I'm separating headcanons and ideas because the headcanons are more solid in their stance while the ideas are just shaky story scenes that I think would be cool to do but I'm not sure if I would be into it being my main line headcanon.

Headcanons:

1. While Tina is still dating Jimmy Jr. She tries to apologize to Zeke for being so hostile towards him at the beginning. She admits that she was jealous of how close he was with Jimmy Jr even though she knew him longer, how he seemed to thrive at everything that she hoped to be good at, and how despite being obnoxious, loud, rough, and gross he still was able to get nearly everyone to like him. Meanwhile, she struggled with being tolerated by her Wagstaff peers that weren't her siblings.

Zeke thinks it’s insane that Tina could be jealous of him when he’s jealous of her. Zeke wish he had Tina’s life with parents that aren’t divorced and siblings he could he could hang out with all the time. Not to mention Tina had years to develop the relationships she has with people. Zeke’s family moved around a lot so he had no choice but to make a quick impression on people because he never knows when he’s going to move away again. Even if Tina thinks she has no friends, she always had her Gene and Louise to turn to; Zeke had no one in his family because they were either too old/busy to bother with him, too young to even walk, or only visits for a little while because they live in another state.

Tina grows to appreciate Zeke more after this conversation and officially sees him as a friend rather than Jimmy Jr’s friend that she just has to learn to live with and has mixed feelings over the fact that he has a crush on her.

2. Zeke becomes Louise and Gene’s plan B (or Z for the initial humor) whenever Tina is down in the dumps after Jimmy Jr cancels a date last minute (That is if Zeke isn’t the one Jay Ju canceled on Tina for already). Just a platonic get together so Tina can get her mind off of how much of a jerk Jay Ju is being again. (Kind of like Peppermint Patty forcing Charlie Brown to go to the fair with her so she can help him gets his mind off Snoopy leaving for his original owner in in “Snoopy, Come Home”)

3. Tina succeeds getting Zeke into The Equestranauts series and Zeke unironically talks about the show in the open with her whenever she brings up first.

4. Tina is the first to join Zeke and Peter’s Women Issues Group to help support her friend.

5. Let’s face it, probably one of the reasons Zeke has a crush on Tina is because she probably has some of the biggest boobs in their grade (not the biggest but one of the biggest anyway). It’s not the only reason, but we can’t deny it’s not part of the reason. Zeke being a boob guy is part of his character and we just have to deal with it like we have to deal with Tina being a butt gal. Darn hormonal teenagers! Lol (Heck I should have named my Zekina Beauty and the Beast idea, Booty and the Breast XD)

6. Tina basically becomes 50% of Zeke’s impulse control while everyone else holds the other half of his impulse control which is dangerous since one of the holders of the other 50 percent is Louise.

7. Tina learns to put her foot down more and not be as easily influenced by Louise thanks to Zeke’s help (which also helps in turn to help her be more solid in her being 50 percent of Zeke’s impulse control).

8. When Zeke and Tina get together, Zeke loves giving pda and Tina loves receiving it, but she tries to not overdo it so she isn’t responsible for her family losing business by being too obnoxious with their affection.

9. When they start dating, it’s easier for Tina to count the times Zeke doesn’t have one of his arms around her or hold her hand than it is when he does.

10. Zeke and Tina get married on the beach. Though, they joke about getting married at the aquarium due to it being a church once.

11.  After their first time together Tina calls Zeke Zbee assuming that all this time Tbird was just the first letter of her name and a reference to the birds and the bees and had no idea Tbird was short for the name of a car. Zeke got a lot of mileage out of that one (no pun intended)

12. Wrasslin’ is Zeke and Tina’s euphemism for hanky panky, Louise and Gene teases them every now and then about it once they found out.

13. Zeke handles the money related problems in the relationship because he is better at math in comparison to Tina, not the best but still better than Tina.

14. Their first child will be named Daniel or Danielle (depending which gender on I choose) either way the kid will be nicknamed Dani

15. What Zeke loves most about Tina is how she’s always full of surprises. She can be a weird, sweet, insecure, do gooder nerd one moment and the next a fearless, troublemaking badass. A strange anomaly wrapped in a mystery that he wants to solve.

16. What Tina loves most about Zeke is the fact that he really believes she’s this interesting, unsolvable mystery. The girl from her inner world she wishes she was is someone that Zeke already believes she is and she never wants to lose that.

17. Zeke and Tina tried to help set up Saucy up on hermit crab dates at one point, but it didn’t work out. You can’t force love in the wild.

18. Zeke probably hates robots because they keep taking the jobs his family applies to and forcing them to move. Either that or he saw the Terminator too young and now is scarred for life.

19. I can see Zeke reading an erotic friend fiction at one point and leaving the review, “Hot stuf Tbird! Cud use more boobies tho ;].” Tomatina (tomato faced tina) appears after that. (Yes Zeke also spells bad XD)

20. Because of his wrestling background, he probably has the potential to give good massages. Tina certainly would want to put that to the test as soon as possible when they are married.

21. Tina makes it her mission to get the best gift for Zeke every birthday and Christmas. Zeke likes to tease her about it and make it a challenge for her to figure it out. It’s frustrating but she knows he only does it to make the point he’ll love whatever she gets him no matter what, as long as it’s not a robot of any kind.

22. Back to when they were teenagers, Tina and Zeke probably used his hidey hole a lot to privately console each other and talk about their current issues troubling them once they became closer friends.

Shaky fanfiction scene ideas (but I’ll still format it as the headcanon list even though the majority of the numbers are part of one story narrative):

1. Everyone comments about how close Zeke and Tina’s friendship has gotten which both deny and Tina feels that Zeke’s that way too everyone because of his personality. Even Jimmy Jr. is a bit threatened by how close Zeke and Tina are now even though Zeke never and will never cross a line. Jimmy Jr. honestly preferred when Tina hated Zeke because he knows how easily she falls in love with guys that are nice to her (especially ones she knows has a crush on her). Tina would of course be insulted by how little Jimmy Jr trusts her loyalty to their relationship.

2. Tina breaks up with Jimmy Jr. after high school when she realizes he’s never going to fully commit to promising her to be faithful during a long distance relationship. Jimmy Jr. and Zeke’s friendship falls apart as well when Zeke chooses to go to comfort Tina first before JJ.

3. She takes a break from dating for a while after the Jimmy Jr. heart break. After her date break, despite the chemistry she feels with Zeke, she will still continue to date other guys before she’s ready to acknowledge her feelings. Zeke’s also has his fair share of dates with other girls as well. They like to laugh over their failed dates and help each other move on.

4. Tina leaves to go to college to become a novelist. She’s delighted to see Dillon and Susmita to be going to the same college and thanks the heavens above that she may finally have a friend group to call her own that’s not terrible to her. Unfortunately, her personal hell comes true when finds out she’s roommates with Tammy Larsen.

5. To afford to go to college, Zeke tries to join the navy but they reject him because of his ADHD. His dad kicks him out at 18. So with nowhere to go he offers to work at Bob’s Burgers for a place to sleep until he can find a job and his own place to stay. Zeke is right at home with the Belcher family and is delighted that Bob is willing to teach other things besides burgers upstairs in the Belcher kitchen. This confirms to Zeke even more that he wants to go to culinary school.

6. Zeke and Tina would still text each other a lot when Tina is away in college (Tina would eventually get her own phone that’s not only for emergency before college, don’t ask me how XD). No way is Zeke going to let Tina and him become estranged, much to Tammy’s annoyance (a girl’s gotta sleep sometimes lol) and massive jealousy.

7.  On summer break of college, Tina would visit her family home. She as well as Zeke would be shocked by all the changes their bodies and attire went through while they were apart. Zeke would lift her up in a big, bear hug to greet his good friend and push down the funny feelings in his tummy while everybody else joins in on the hug.

8. The sexual tension in the air would be so thick that it would need a chainsaw to break it apart. Louise and Gene would have fun with making it worse while Tina is home.

9. Jimmy Jr. would also be back in town during Tina’s summer break. Tina would be lying if she said that Jimmy Jr didn’t take care of himself well as well. Jimmy Jr would happen to be single at the time and also found Tina she aged gracefully too. Jimmy Jr. would ask her to dinner with him to catch up. Knowing full well he is trying to do, Tina agrees to go. Zeke finds out about Tina seeing Jimmy Jr and tell her to have a nice time even though he’s dying inside. He can’t force her to love him, so why try to stop her from who she wants to be with more.

While Tina goes to meet up with Jay Ju, Zeke “borrows” some beer to ease the pain of letting go. Louise would find everything out and slap some sense into a drunken Zeke. Whether she admits it or not, she’s on team Zeke and there’s no way she would let Tina let Jimmy Jr hurt her again or see her practically adopted brother be sad over this easily fixable thing.

Louise would remind Zeke that him and JJ aren’t friends anymore so what is stopping him from barging in to the restaurant telling Tina that he wants her bad and killing JJ. Even in his drunken state Zeke wouldn’t want to kill JJ, but he would agree with Louise that he’s been playing it safe in the friendship for too long and it’s time to rock the boat.

When Louise and Zeke make it to the restaurant, Tina would already be leaving the place looking like she did something very cathartic. It would be revealed that Tina basically only agreed to meet up with JJ again just to make it clear to him that she outgrew him and that there’s no chance that they will ever get back together again after everything he put her through, that and get a free meal.

Louise would be proud of her sister to finally overcome the JJP drug while also pushing Zeke to say what he went there to say. Zeke nerves and drunken state would get the better of him and he would zoom to the nearest trash can to barf. After an awkward ride of silence home, Tina would help give Zeke water until he would be sober enough to talk things over.

Zeke would pour his heart out that he still holds a torch for Tina and never stopped even when they were doing great as just friends. He wanted to tell her so much sooner but it was never the right time. Then when Tina came back for summer, he thought fate finally gave him and Tina a chance to start something.  That is until Jimmy Jr popped in back to town at the worst possible time. He was so heartbroken that he thought he missed his shot again that he was going to drink the pain away until Louise stopped his pity party.

He would say screw it whether it was the right or wrong time to say it because he’s done staying silent just so the next long necked Casanova can come and steal her heart while he just learns to live with it. If Tina still didn’t want to give him a chance, he would be fine with that, but at least he got what he needed off of his chest. His only hope now would be that if Tina did reject his confession they would still be friends.

It would be Tina’s turn to get something out of her hand and give it to Zeke, it was an after dinner mint from the restaurant. Tina would tease him that she didn’t want to kiss someone with barf breath. Zeke never would have dreamed that he would be trying to suck through a mint so fast.

Their kiss would be soft and innocent at the start but get more and more intimate once Tina wordlessly gives Zeke permission to do so. Years of unreciprocated love pouring out and being shared by one another and it makes them both feel like the only people in the world that matter to each other for a moment.

10. After they become official, Jimmy Jr apologizes to both of them for real this time and hopes that one day maybe they could all be friends again. Not wanting to hold any grudges, Zeke and Tina want to bury the hatchet with Jimmy Jr. but make it clear they aren’t pals yet and they want to see that Jimmy Jr. earns their trust first.

Okay, that’s all that I have stored up in my brain for ZekexTina headcanons and fanfiction ideas (which is basically just a bunch of scenes that form into one big story honestly, I’m not very good at making my ideas small XD)

Okay here’s a bonus headcanon for Gene. His favorite song from Veggietales is Barbara Manatee and thus formed his attraction to the manatee puppet in that ship kidnapped episode.

So I Just Found Out About the New Episode After Next Week’s New Episode Is Called “What About Job”

I'm very intrigued by this title and the synopsis. It sounds like it's going to be another Belcher kids tell stories episode. I really hope that we get to see aged-up versions of the kids, even if it's only hypothetical. I so want to know if I was struck by Apollo's prophecy dodgeball or was way off in their designs! XD Either way, I never expected to get an aged-up Belcher kids episode this fast! Then again, I only just recently got into the show while older fans have been waiting way longer. Though I don't want to hold my breath because I still could be wrong about where the episode will be going. Heck I could be right and still not get the kids aged up and they'll still have their child bodies but with their dream jobs in their hypotheticals because it's funny. XD I really want to see them aged up in the maybe stories, so they better not take that away from me if I'm right. lol

In celebration of the new season coming out in a day or two, here's the Belcher kids, Zeke, and Jimmy Jr aged up. This is part two of the headcanon thing I made a while ago. https://www.tumblr.com/qilin-crusader/690246122471636992/bobs-burgers-question-and-adult-belcher-kids-and?source=share I slightly updated my headcanon though and now feel that Louise would have made the "Broken Glass Kids" a real gang and Zeke as well as Linda are a part of her gang. Louise's gang is still small but she's working on it, she just appreciates being part of a group that appreciates the thrill of smashing glass items and burning other items. To explain Zeke's tattoos. On the left arm is a gardenia on his upper arm while the rest of his arm is wrapped up in weeds. On the right side is a harpoon stabbing a bleeding heat and the blood drips to the bottom and forms an ocean. So he has a beach arm, I was going to give him a Saucy tattoo to add on to the beach arm, but I thought it was too silly and declined it.

As for Gene, I thought it would fit him to give him a skort. All the fun of a skirt and the sex appeal of shorts. I also think it would just fit Gene's love of being a goofball that always surprises you. For Louise's hair, I combined Bob's mom's hair and the top of Bob's hair as well. I want to bring the feels of her looking a little like Bob's mom and taking after her dad with her hairstyle because she will always be a daddy's girl whether she admits it or not. Looks like Tina took Topsy's advice and pulled her hair back. I wanted to combine the vision of older Tina with longer hair as well as pulling her hair back because she looks good showing her whole face. I didn't even need Topsy to tell me that because I dug her no bangs look during the stage fright flashback when Tina didn't stop the hairdresser from cutting all of her bangs off. Tina's glasses were originally going to be blue until I saw that they were too many blue glasses-wearing characters. I changed it to yellow since her barrette would be hiding anyway. It worked out because I found out that Tina's eyes are blue so the yellow glasses will be a great contrast. I also thought a cowl neck sweater dress would fit her because I like to imagine her using the cowl neck to hide her face in shame or awkwardness. I also gave her the choker necklace because I like it too. For Jimmy Jr, I decided to give him dance shoes so he looks like he's always ready to dance. Also, I decided to give him a goatee because he would probably wear one to spite his dad and his butt chin. Anyway, hope you dig the designs. Tina's is probably my favorite. Edit 10/4/2022: I changed Zeke's facial expression and gave Tina, Gene, and Zeke some earrings. Edit 10/09/2022 I changed Zeke's designs because I started hating his pants. I gave him cargo shorts instead. I also gave Zeke's shirt very short sleeves that were inspired by @bluebirbbs design. They are very short though because I didn't want to cover his tattoos. I gave Zeke more facial hair compared to the three lines in his old design. I liked his soul patch in the season 12 finale and gave him some stubble because I thought it fit him. The biggest reason I wanted to give him shorts was because of the leg hair. I wanted to show him as a hairy guy but I couldn't do it with his arms because of the tattoos so I went with legs instead.

Hey, it's that sweet potato/I yam meme!

Unfortunately, Edmund got distracted and forgot the first part of the meme and bought this shirt instead. Debora doesn't seem to mind though.

Mission Failed Successfully?!

I wanted to do this for a while but I didn't want to follow the meme exactly. It was the perfect opportunity to reference what both their heads shapes look like in one meme. I almost went with a more crass, jalapeno shirt option. I decided to go more wholesome because I didn't want to draw Debora looking like she wanted to kill Edmund (for example, if I did the "I'm always jalapeno business" it would either imply Deb is a hussy or an angry/annoying witch).

Two shirts that have nothing to do with each other yet still somehow make it work. Fits the Debmund perfectly in my opinion.

They did my man Gustafa dirty! What have they done to his beautiful nose?!

ClipDrop Relight allows you to change the lighting of images (including artworks) for free with their AI lighting tool

This could be super useful for artists if you want to play around with potential lighting/colours! I tested it out a bit and it seems to work with both portraits and sceneries, however it doesn't look like it works with flat sketches. Still really impressive though!

So cute! Also... Yay! Now I have an excuse to update that prompt I made a while ago through reblog! I found a way to revamp the story to incorporate more of the og element into the story idea but I didn't want to message about it again. I'm just so interested in the original story because it's so needlessly complicated and I so see Tina go that route in her story just because she's Tina. Here's the link to the 2 part video of what I'm talking about.

Anyway, after watching the videos here's the updated cast of characters. I still want some Disney elements in the original idea, but now it has a bit more hilariously, needless plot elements as well. Tina - Tinelle (obviously that doesn't change) Tammy and Jocelyn - Selfish "sisters" Mr. Fischoeder - Calvrice (I couldn't resist the live-action Beauty and the Beast reference with the voice XD) Jimmy Jr. - Jimston

Zeke - Beast

Aunt Gayle - Faerie Queen's sister

Zeke's stepmom - The queen and the beast's mother that was in the war during the story.

Linda Belcher - The faerie queen

Bob Belcher - Tina's real father and also a king

Gene - The singing rose. (maybe, I'm open for other options for Gene and Louise in this revamp) That's it with the cast changes to my original prompt. The only things I would change from the og story is that I obviously don't want to imply Zeke and Tina are cousins or that the reason Zeke is a beast is because of some creepy, pedo fairy. I think I would change that creepy fairy plot to Zeke, having feelings for his nanny fairy, but the nanny fairy took the clear NO of the situation too far and he's a beast to teach him to not go after older women at such a very young age. (I think it fits better for Zeke because of that one moment in "Can't Buy Me Math" when he tried to come on to an older, married woman after Tina gave him that motivation which clearly wouldn't have worked out. XD)

@tacosandtouchtanks I have my first TinaxZeke fanart I want to submit for your blog. I’m gonna do them as as many Disney couples as I can manage.

Love these little muppets, man.

Here's that part two I mentioned in my last post! Edmund and Debora probably have more they move around between the seasons, but for now, I just wanted to do the ones that mattered. I tried to pinpoint the chapters for the outfits I could.

I couldn't do all because some probably won't ever appear in Nettie's story and will have to wait for the adult attire to appear in my spin-off.

Debora wears the purple blouse when she meets the others at the bar-b-que in CallMeNettie's story, "As Time Goes By" for sure. https://archiveofourown.org/works/20655731/chapters/49052477 Debora and Edmund's nightwear are both a reference to a Hey Arnold comic strip that had Harold claiming to read a Manly Man comic when in reality he was reading a Funny Bunny comic. Edmund owns a comic book store in Nettie's story so it's only fitting they would both wear something comic-themed (it's also hilarious to see Edmund wear dorky, superhero undies XD). https://heyarnold.fandom.com/wiki/Comics/Collection_Confusion

I think out of all of the attire, I think I'm most proud of the last two dresses. Debora looks so pretty in both of them. I really wanted to update Debora's dress for Nettie's series because the one I had for her would have had complications. Edmund looks great as a Viking groom too. He's kind of basic with the sweater vest get up but it works in story because Debora loves guys in sweater vests.

I made these rings a while ago, but I didn't have an excuse to post them here until now. I figured it would have been lame to post something with just rings rolled out like a banner so now it fits neatly with the "As Time Goes By" and "The Legend of Punch Girl" Debbie and Eddie attire list.

Thank you for reading this far and here's hoping that I'll actually get to work on my story now. lol P.S. I say bonus for the lingerie Debora because I only wanted to post it on here because I didn't feel comfortable posting it anywhere else. I mean, it's doll anatomy, but still.

Not too fond of how I titled it. Nonetheless here it is! Honestly, I have two reasons as to why I made this.

1. I wanted to update Adult Debora's body type to be a bit chubby and turn her from a rectangle-shaped body to a pear-shaped body.

2. I felt like drawing Renata, Jackie, Wolfgang, Renata, and Edmund for CallMeNettie from fanfiction/AO3 so people could have some visual representation of what they look like in her "Slice of Life" series.

I also added Lorenzo and Siobhan into the image because they will eventually be relevant in my own spinoff for Nettie's story (more so Siobhan than Lorenzo) and I wanted to make an adult design for them for later.

Anyway, I hope you like the designs. There's going to be a part two to this that is just going to be me designing Debmund outfits that were either mentioned in Nettie's story or will be a thing eventually in my own story.

P.S. Hucksley is my headcanon last name for Edmund. It's not canon in Nettie's story yet but she gave me permission to use this last name in the spinoff whenever I get to it.

So excited! It’s a little rough in the fan service sense in the beginning but it’s definitely worth in the long run! I’m keeping fingers crossed too for an awesome English dub! Patrick Seitz for Andy!

*heavy intense breathing*

On a scale of 1 to a million pandas, how excited is everyone?

@daddygrandpaandthebeaver

Yes, please! I love that! Even if you never turn this prompt into a real fanfiction I would absolutely love to read Tinelle's version of the song "Belle". Also, you're welcome

Booty and the Beast Prompt Idea

I recently got into Bob’s Burger’s because I sort of kin Tina and now I ship TinaxZeke because I don’t get enough INFPxESTP ships in fiction and I like their dynamic. Anyway basically, my prompt idea is that is takes places after the movie and Tina is finally has some form of relationship with Jimmy Jr. Her fears have come to fruition when Jimmy Jr in real life isn’t bringing as much to the table as she hoped for. Tina begins to notice how supportive Zeke has been to her over the time she’s known him after he helps her work through a less than stellar date with Jimmy Jr. Tina used to find Zeke gross (still somewhat does) and she is still up to her butt with JJu. Yet, the more she spent time with Zeke, the more she noticed that while a troublemaker, was actually a sweet guy.  So to work through her feelings she begins writing her spicy version of movie “Beauty and the Beast” which she retitled, “Booty and the Beast. It would be a mixture of the Disney movie and the original story is Disney movie was based on. Here’s the cast so far. Tina Belcher - Tinelle, the village weirdo that no gets because she writes erotic villager fiction of everyone in town. Gene and Louise Belcer- Tinelle’s greedy siblings, though they still are pretty great siblings even if they have expensive taste. Bob Belcher (or Mr. Fishoeder if you want that live action movie reference) - Bobrice (or Fishrice), the loving father that tries to get everything his kids ask for even though none of them are actually the easiest for him to get. Zeke - The Beast who originally wanted Tina to get rid of the curse but is actually a pretty decent guy and let Tinelle’s family live in his palace while he tries to court Tinelle. The beast gets along with everyone in Tinelle’s family. Linda Belcher - The Singing Rose (there’s a singing rose in the original story) Jimmy Jr - Jimston Jr., Tinelle’s fiancé whose the best dancer in town. Tinelle eagerly agreed to marry him because her family is dirt poor and needs a better place to live, Jimston Jr is hot, and Jimston Jr. is the only one that’s willing to marry her in the poor, provincial town because everyone else thinks she’s a pervy weirdo. The conflict in the story would be Tinelle trying super hard to not see the beast for who he truly is because her heart belongs to Jimston Jr. It doesn’t matter how everyone in her family loves the beast, how supportive/respectful the beast is of Tinelle, or even how she might even realized she might have a furry fetish. None of that matters because her heart belongs to Jimston Jr and the beast will always be the beast inside and out. Knowing that Tinelle wasn’t going to change her mind, the beast gave up his chance of being human again and more importantly, be with with a gal he thought was pretty cool to be where she truly wanted to be. Her family was okay with leaving too because they just wanted Tinelle to be happy just as much as the beast did. Tinelle got what she wanted in the end, but seeing the beast one last time before going to Jimston Jr. she felt melancholy and empty. In real life, Tina stops writing her fanfiction for a little while because it got too real for her and got writer’s block. She didn’t know how she wanted to end her story or what to do in real life anymore. She wishes she could go back to when it was easier and her feelings weren’t all messed up. That’s all I have for the prompt idea so far, so it’s up to you how you want to end it. Though I just recommend you end it how you feel a Bob’s Burgers episode would end it. Just don’t forget to be put some humor in it because I don’t want it all angsty. The show is a comedy after all.

Normal/Flying So, a bunch of birds. Not the most exciting but I love my show tunes and jazz. XD

I’m going to have to go WATER/BUG

Bob's Burgers Question and Adult Belcher Kids and Friends Job Headcanons

I recently got into Bob's Burgers and felt like drawing the Belcher Kids, Jimmy Jr., and Zeke as adults (9 years later). I do need some help with design suggestions though. I see Zeke as a tattoo around both upper arms guy (and maybe some in the back) but I'm stumped on ideas. As a ZekexTina shipper the only idea I have is one of his upper arms having one gardenia with weeds wrapping around the upper arm. I don't want Zeke's tattoos to only be about my preferred ship. So any suggestions for Zeke's tattoos will be appreciated. Now onto my headcanons.

Tina - Online (very) graphic novel artist. She makes her money off of making trashy romance novels but her true passion is her webcomic because it's not tied down by any editors and she can create it how she pleases.

Gene - Social media influencer. He started out with Linda trying to help his family advertise Bob's Burgers on the web. He transitioned by making money off of his Youtube channel (or whatever you call it in the Bob's Burgers universe) by doing whatever creative thing he thinks of such as wacky covers of popular songs or food reviews. His channel is whatever he wants it to be and you never know what he plans to do next.

Louise - At 18 she hasn't matured enough to take over her dad's restaurant. She mostly finds a way to cause chaos while still somehow keeping her job on the wharf. Once she grows a bit more, she decides she still wants to run the family business as she did when she was nine.

Jimmy Jr. - Tried to make it in the dancing industry only to see how corrupt it actually was and didn't want any of that. He teaches dancing instead and tries to be the parent figure his father never was.

Zeke - After getting rejected from joining the military (probably from ADHD but you decide), he finds himself going back to train under Bob Belcher to become a chef because Bob was one of the only people that didn't make him feel like a screw-up and he loved how much he felt at home in the Belcher family. He also does self-defense classes as well that Jimmy Jr. and Louise sometimes volunteer to help out (not that much of Louise though because she makes the environment too chaotic and nothing ever gets done)

Van Gogh's Starry Night with the first image taken by the James Webb telescope by alpgenart (via astronomy_eye)

Created this for CallMeNettie's story, "As Time Goes By". Debora is going on a camping trip starting chapter 45 and I wanted to create what I imagine she would wear during the trip. I included a bit of Edmund too to show a bit of his adult form.

Edmund is certainly the type to go sleeveless to show off his pecks during a camping trip. Debora on the other hand wants to show the least skin as possible while still not being completely hot over it. Gotta be prepared for bugs somehow.
