Just a random thing I did.
YOU DO NOT HURT THE BABY!
I like it.
What is with that random kid? I’m calling it, he’s played by one of Owen Wilson’s sons, probably Robert Ford since he can most likely talk.
If I’m right about the kid’s voice being Owen’s son than... Aww.... adorable! Best daddy! Then again, his little sons will also be watching their dad get hurt very, very brutally and being very sad throughout their movie.
Jackson has such a smug, but chill look on his face that I kind of like. He is just flipping chill.
Oh and the masochistic demolition derby cars and Miss Fritter are there too. Gale is staring at her bumper.
Let’s see Smokey, Louise Nash, Mack, Luigi Guido, Mater, Red and my girl Sally. Yeah that’s everyone.
This is another one of the characters that I made over the Spring semester at school. Funny how I’m posting this character during Pride Month His name is Harley Barr, but his drag queen name is Bunny Shademoore. He’s a poledancer at a gay club as a means of making money at least until his band gets off the ground. Got street smarts and confidence to mask his vagueness and jumpy nerves towards most people. He grew up relatively well-off in New York City and was fascinated by the drag scene there. It made him feel confident when his interests and androgynous appearance got him bullied at school. Despite his rather sexual occupation, he is asexual. However, being 1976, it wouldn’t be common at the time and so most would assume he’s gay. As of this post, he’s only appeared in one chapter so far: https://m.fanfiction.net/s/13948989/2/ Hopefully more to come as he could help the teens with his skills, loyalty, and being comfortable with gender being malleable. #sevenchronicles #strangerthings #Harleybarr #harley #barr #bunnyshademoore #bunny #shademoore #dragqueen #1976 #1970s #asexual #confident #loyal #androgynous https://www.instagram.com/p/CeUc-bjFkcC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Sarge 1 and 14: Holiday and Dancing head canons please?
Boy you really like Sarge.
Holiday:
Sarge is a something of an Agnostic, but celebrates Holidays like the rest of Radiators Springs. He prefers Secret Santas since he likes surprising those and figuring out people based on surveillance. He’s rather quiet, but honest when he gives his gift. He’ll never say it but he always give Fillmore 1960s hippie band vinyls which make him smile deep down, while showing annoyance outwardly. Fillmore knows it’s him but doesn’t say because he knows how he’ll get embarrassed and deny it.
On Halogen-ween he he decorates his home in more of the style of an apocalypse since that what reminds him of the fear he felt in war, however he prefers to keep his lawn immaculate no matter the occasion god dammit! He modifies his body depending on the era he’s portraying for the holiday that year.
Thanksgiving is a somewhat more relaxing time as he mostly just surrounds himself with his family in Radiator Springs but calls he’s niece to check on her. He use to visit his family for thanksgiving but was never quite as close with them after his service in the military and coming out.
Don’t ever think that Easter egg hunts are all fun and games for him. When it’s time to go a-hunting he’s not stopping until all eggs are accounted. No stone will go unturned as he, Mater, and anyone else sane enough to join goes all out in the search for colorful eggs that mysteriously exist!
New Years and New Years Eve, just another day, but a day worth celebrating he suppose. He tries to keep everyone in check however when the drinks start to come out and acts as the sober adult along with Sheriff in all the raucous. Both working into making sure nobody goes over the legal like, both before and after the party.
Fourth of July! America Day bitches! He will go all out to remind you be proud of the accomplishments of the U.S. and tell you to do your damnedest to make a yourself a better America in your own way.
I think that’s all I got for Holiday. Did I miss any?
Dancing:
He joins in cruising night but he just doesn’t. Despite his enjoyment of musicals he has no sense of rhythm and so just... doesn’t. If anyone somehow manages to make him dance, well it’s very stiff and more like marching than dancing.
being the change i want to see in the world!!

This is Jackie Tournesol, the final girl I made art for. She’s a punk rocker girl who’s face claim is based on G Hannelius. Jackie’s creator based their character’s clothing style on Joan Jett and Nina Hagen from the 70s. The girl can be cold with a bit of a temper, but underneath she cares about her friends and family. The hair was difficult to figure out in looking stylistically like a 70s cartoon and is kind of a mix of both hair styles their creator mentioned. Jackie’s creator is also probably the most descriptive with their character’s clothing as detailed in the she appeared in. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg529IZs38K/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
That’s what I think will happen too.
Even in Toy Story 3 the conflict of “your child will grow up and won’t need you” was postponed with Andy giving the toys to Bonnie. She’s going to get older still and give up the toys and it’s just another delay of the inevitable and heartache will restart once again.
Lightning retiring after having one last comeback by beating Jackson would be beautiful, heartbreaking, but hopeful ending that would resolve his internal conflict and having him leave on his own terms. He’d see it as a choice he made, that Doc didn’t have. Doc said there was a whole lot left in him after his crash that he never had the chance to show it, the crash left him bitter and angry at the racing world and he wanted nothing more than to hide and never hear of it again. Lightning doesn’t want to be that, he doesn’t want to be kicked out of the sport he loves, he doesn’t want to become resentful of it when he stops. He wants the choice of retiring, not the fear. Leaving something that you love doing, knowing that you accomplished a lot and made it your choice is a satisfying end.
Him retiring and maybe even becoming Cruz’s crew chief would be his character arc coming full circle, becoming the Doc to a new generation, to Cruz.
Hear me out: yes, they can do a movie where he’s falling behind new tech, refuses to give up, trains with Cruz, gets revamped, goes into another race and shows those whippersnappers who’s boss. And it could be fun and entertaining and have good characters, and have a message that just because you’re old doesn’t mean you’re out! However, the main emotional conflict for Lightning is unresolved. He still has to let go and retire at some point. There will always be new tech. So really, the main conflict is only postponed.
OR
They could do an ending where he does train, he does get new tech. He could potentially beat Jackson Storm. But then he sees what a promising racer Cruz is (isn’t she supposed to be an aspiring racer?). And he starts to reminisce about his career, and he does realize that he’s had a really great one that will leave a legacy no matter what. And that there’s things he can potentially do with his life (and his wife/girlfriend/whatever) after he’s done racing; his life isn’t over just because he retires. So yeah, maybe he does go in and beats Jackson Storm, just to show that he can and to leave on a high note a la Michael Phelps. But then he retires on his own terms, opening a space for Cruz to enter the circuit, because now he realizes that his legacy can last through the new athletes (again, Michael Phelps–he’s getting beaten by guys who idolized him as kids now and he’s cool as long as they aren’t asses about it). It would close the series, like Toy Story 3, with a message of letting go, letting a younger generation take over, and entering a new chapter of your life. In my opinion, a much stronger and more complex film.

❤️ I think Cars 2 was real start of the 2010s Disney Twist Villain craze…
Previous Twist Villains existed before the 2010s, but I think the reason why it became more frustrating for Pixar and Disney movies in that time was because of one person: John Lasseter. Lasseter had been executive producer on all the Pixar and Disney films with the twist villain: Cars 2, Wreck It Ralph, Frozen, Big Hero 6, Zootopia, Moana, Coco, and Incredibles 2.
While Lasseter was the executive producer on previous Disney and Pixar films with a twist villain (Toy Story 2, Monsters Inc. Incredibles, Meet the Robinsons, and Toy Story 3) he also had a lot more oversight as well. He wasn’t the most powerful man in animation at the time.
I think Lasseter really liked the twist villain and production-timeline wise, he probably suggested twist villains while making Cars 2.
With that being said… I think Miles Axlerod is the smartest in the sense that he never brags about his crimes to his victims. He only reveals himself as the villain when there’s a bomb inches from him and seconds away from blowing him up. Axlerod was smart enough to be cautious, not going to his meetings in-person, using a disguise voice and I think changed his color(?)…
As for the amount of money he probably spent setting up the World Grand Prix as a sham… Well if the 2020s have taught us anything is that being a billionaire doesn’t necessarily mean you’re a genius.
I’m not saying Miles Axlerod my favorite, but I kind like him in the historical sense of animation production and writing, what he’s meant to represent in the movie itself, and for shallow reason of silly/scary fanfics about him. Like in the same way people use Prince Hans (no super powers or soft/sad boy-ism, but manipulation, charm, wealth, and privilege).
💚 I liked crashing into Mia and Tia on the Cars video game because it kind of gave me a glimpse of their personalities. Surprisingly they are different. Mia is more aggressive with her yelling and whining and has more lines than Tia (in the video game). Mia also has a slightly deeper voice than Tia. Tia is more likely to compliment herself (self confidence queen) and whine.
I don’t get why people assume they’re teenagers. Not only is that gross for Lightning… but Mater too since they’re in his tall tales as girls to impress.
Sarge is the underrated hero. Despite calling Fillmore a tree hugger, he clearly distrusts Axlerod’s history of being an oil tycoon enough to switch Allinol with Fillmore’s fuel at the last minute. He may call not trust Fillmore’s organic fuel, but he cares about McQueen’s safety than his bias. There’s also this line Mater said in Cars 3 that while Luigi and Guido were Lightning, they put Sarge and Fillmore in charge of the tire shop. Fillmore gave all the tires away and Sarge was hunting them back down because… you don’t just do that with someone else’s merchandise.
But at the same time, casually brings a cannon to a party when Fillmore asked:
Agreed. Oh I love these girls they're both wonderful and adorable!
Lightning oh... Lightning you are both the greatest lady magnet and heartbreak. Don't yell at Cruz! She is pure joy!
My girls are sad!!! Save them!!!
(They’re both looking at Lightning in each shot- Lightning stop doing this to them, they don’t deserve it!!!)
(Also… Cruz is beefy and I love her???)
Mostly Cars, also Disney and Pixar things

hello Pixarjem! for the HC... Sally x7
Depending on the situation...
While in casual public setting: A kiss on the cheek, nothing too showy but a sweet simple gesture that makes both of them a little warmer and relaxed. A nice surprise as well!
On a date: At Wheel Well overlooking the landscape, a slow single lip kiss with the focus on connection, before a bit of tongue to tease him for a possible later.
At home: Goes for small peppered kisses around his fender before reaching his lips, pulling back at first to give him the hint in her eyes and swerving tires that she wants to get more before going further. She continues her kiss with a small bite on his lip, being something of a Domme...
After a race (alone): Adrenaline fueled smooch action!
When he’s hurt: Gentle, avoid the places where he’s pain, quiet as to not feel like pity.
That G-rated steamy enough for you?
Lover of all things Pixar (especially the Cars movies), Disney, and Animation
