#In Kermit's voice no less

[saltpepperbeard]

“There’s so many songs that Stede could sing, that would be appropriate for him. But what came to my head then was Rainbow Connection.” [x]

[ducktracy]

Conspiracy theory I didn't come up with: Part of why Hollywood is so weird with Looney Tunes and Muppets is that they resent the voice work involved. Even dumbass execs know you need Kermit to sound like Kermit and Daffy to sound like Daffy and they HATE that they can't just recast them with some random celebrity.

HMMMMM… i unfortunately don’t know enough about the Muppets to throw my two cents in there, but with LT—i both see where you’re going with this and somewhat object at the same time.

i guess my point i’m about to bring up just as much proves you right, but they DID get away with some celeb stunt casting with Space Jam 2 (lol) thanks to Zendaya and Gabriel Iglesias. and hell even going back to TLTS, you have Kristen Wiig and Fred Armisen… Frank Gorshin voices Daffy in Superior Duck.. so there IS the fair share of celeb stunt casting with these characters, which i guess does in a way sort of prove your point, but to me still makes me think it’s not entirely it

one of my biggest complaints with modern LT revivals IS, however, that they never seem to write the characters with Mel Blanc in mind. i realize the man has been dead for 35 years and we obviously can’t raise him back, but the originals were so often written to cater to his voice talents and his quirks and his specificities, and while you have incredibly talented voice actors like Eric Bauza or Bob Bergen or Jeff Bergman or Joe Alaskey (RIP), the one little ingredient missing from their deliveries is because they aren’t written with Mel in mind. Mel’s involvement is just as important to the characters and their personalities as the directors and writers and animators

which leads me to my next point in that i just think that nobody understands the Looney Tunes characters, simple as. they don’t! they are not some big happy family à la the Muppets, who, in turn, are not some big happy family. likewise they are not mindless drones who drop anvils and blow each other up and repeat the same 2 bits over and over and over again. i don’t think Space Jam 2’s ineptitude is a product of execs losing their minds over the inability to stunt cast—i just think you don’t know your Looney Tunes if you’re going to genuinely play up a Bugs Bunny death scene as a sincere, heart felt moment. come on!!!!!

i still think a lot about the excerpt in Jerry Beck’s 100 Greatest LT Shorts book where one of the contributors—whose name escapes me—had a WB exec tell him in the ‘90s that nobody likes Porky because “people don’t like pigs”, and his quip in the book was “well, i’m people and i like pigs!”. likewise the whole political correctness bit in Back in Action is true to life! the Speedy complaint surprises me less but the whole “first they tell me to lose the stutter, then they tell me i’m not funny” actually happened! WB hasn’t known what to do with these characters for half a century at this point and it’s unfortunately nothing new. i wish it were just a matter of grievances at celebrity voice casting, but i really do think it’s just because nobody knows how the hell to characterize or approach the characters.

likewise, that is very much by design. the original run is lightning in a bottle. its brilliance is the product of so many ultra specific circumstances and benefits and histories and trial and error that you just can’t really replicate. i mean, you can, but even with the most meticulous studying and planning and adaptation and mathematical calculations and all that other jargon, even if you put all that into your work… you’re still not Chuck Jones with Chuck Jones’ life experience, you’re not Bob Clampett with Bob Clampett’s life experience, not Friz Freleng, not Bob McKimson, not Frank Tashlin…

i am a loud proponent of thinking that honoring these characters correctly and accurately and respectfully is possible. i think it can be done. i think it is possible to study all of the quirks of the directors, of the writers, the animators, the characters, how the characters talk and walk and play off of each other, how the directorial tone is dictated. you have to be a complete nut to do it, but i think it’s possible. but that just goes back to the original question of: well… why try and make carbon copies of the originals when the originals are right there? (which, i admit, is another question that i myself get huffy about and am like “just because!!!! why not!” but i can’t act like i can fully deny it either. it’s a valid question.)

ANYWAY. i just went on a huge tangent, some of which is completely unrelated to your ask and your point so MY APOLOGIES! i do think you have something there, but i really do think the main perpetrator is just a lack of understanding and awareness. or, we do have adaptations that show potential and they aren’t given the light of day to be realized and help set the course a little because we need to think of our tax write-offs first. god forbid!

Scrambled Eggs review

We get to see the Hotel crew interacting without Alastor for a change, while Alastor meets up with some old pals when babysitting the Eggs.

There are Razzle and Dazzle, I was wondering where they were after the first episode.

With this being Hell, Pentious’ paranoia and want to defend himself must be common with the people. Maybe if there were less demons with asshole or perverted personalities we’d see that. Plus if this continues HH and HB is going to become like Family Guy and depend on that kind of stuff for every joke.

We finally got a name for the scientist from the pilot, Odette.

Carmilla Carmine, an Overlord centered on weapons. Her introduction could lead to some interesting fights.

Vaggie is kind of right, just because someone flips you off, doesn’t mean they want you dead. Niffty on the other hand is someone you should always worry about as she will likely want to do more than murder you.

It’s another example of how we wouldn’t have gotten the storyline if it happened, but I’m surprised Charlie or Vaggie (mostly Charlie) didn’t bring up the idea of having the Eggs join as part of the Hotel’s staff. They look like they could try and aid in cleaning and repair.

I also do like that Charlie didn’t, as so far I’ve seen a lot of examples where Vaggie sacrifices more in the relationship, so I’m counting this as an example of Charlie taking Vaggie’s word/side.

They made the famous Alastor pic of him eating deer into an animation!

BTW with his room being part swamp and the writer’s love of making memes, how long before we get a Kermit the Frog joke from this? If the writers ever decide to do that, they should get YouTuber DevilArtemis to help since he knows a lot about Kermit :)

Another change in Al’s voice when he said “that’s a lot less fun”. Now thinking back to the last episode, Vox had something similar going on with his voice so maybe it’s a common trait for sinners like them but I feel like that is a too simple reason for Alastor of all characters.

Another example of Charlie’s reality altering illusions. Did I ever mention who I think she could fight in an episode of Death Battle?

Is Vaggie afraid to lead people? It is an interesting idea but we have seen her doing just that before, though I guess those previous time could be considered “angry outburst/feelings”. I am one of the people who thinks Vaggie is a former Exorcist and if there is the slightest chance that is true, I could see this being a reason why she left. A bit off topic but going back to something I said in my Overture review, this also would have worked for the alternate idea of how it was common for Heaven losing Exorcist every year till now, as maybe they “lost” some because they quit during/after Exterminations.

Technically Husk did catch Angel, so there is trust their but annoy him and he’ll stop helping.

IDK how to describe it, but its nice seeing the fun art style that Angel and Cherri were drawn as in the pilot return for Angel, Husk, and Pentious here.

With the situation you and Hell are in Charlie, any progress should be considered good.

So that guy’s name is Zestial Modre. You think he talks that way because he is chronologically very old, or just for effect as I’m guessing he’s the Overlord of Fear? You think DC Comics/Warner Bros. would be okay with Vivzie if she gave Zestial a power similar to Scarecrow’s fear gas or have his full demon form look similar to Parallax, the emotional entity of Fear? Viv worked with Disney for a bit, so I bet Warner Bros. would be okay if it meant getting one over their rival company.

If you turn on subtitles, one of the Egg Bois is named Frank. I recall it being said that the Eggs are cloned from an original Egg, so could Frank be said original?

Sure Al, nothing suspicious happened during your break.

Not even the Eggs know about the name thing.

An Overlord meeting! 

I recall Zilla being tall, but not THAT tall. Also does any still ship her with that guy she was seen with in the pilot, the one who was laughing at Charlie and said they should leave?

Nearly everyone in Hell has sharped teeth, so how is Rosie any different Frank?

Apparently the VA of Carmilla is also a dancer, fitting given how Carmilla looks like a ballerina. Also as LK Yusei Fudo would say, “what is up with her hair”?

“Older generation vs. never generation” trope. How long before Velvette makes a “okay boomer” joke?

The Exorcist severed head! Didn’t see that coming! 

Now apparently there are theories of Lilith being disguised as Rosie, which I could see, but I do want to point out that she was shocked at the severed Exorcist head. Lilith seems like a kind of actor, so she could have acted being surprised but it’s still something that should be pointed out.

Looks like Zestial agrees with me that it’s possible that something else could have killed the Exorcist. Also that it sounds like he IS very old, maybe even older than Sir Pentious.

I’m wondering if this scene could help later on if there is a future scene where people blame Charlie for moving up the next Extermination, but then Alastor and maybe the other Overlords defend her by revealing the severed head. If it means preventing Charlie from having a “all is hopeless” scene then I hope it does.

It is interesting that the sinners are divided about if they should use the knowledge of knowing Exorcist could be killed to fight back or wait till they either learn more or to not risk having the whole Pride Ring population be wiped out. Both sides make sense but also have their flaws.

Looks like Angel and Cherri have some competition with Zestial and Carmilla for the title of number 1 BFFS.

“Respectless” is my favorite HH song so far. Really love how it switches between opera music and rap.

HOLY CRAP ODETTE AND CARMILLA ARE RELATED!!! THIS is going to be fun and lead to some interesting discussions, like is she (and the other girl Odette is always with) adopted or did Carmilla and the others die and get sent to Hell around the same time?

Again I get that this is an M rated show, but the series is already good enough that I don’t think it always need to rely on extreme violence and NSFW stuff, as it kind of killed the mood after seeing what happened in the next see. Again, Family Guy.

WHY! 

Another example of why the “Vaggie is a former Exorcist” theory could be true.

I bet Vaggie has been dreaming about thrown Angel to his doom XD.

Liking how Charlie said there are other ways to solve things, going back to an older comment about her and Lilith having different views of how to make Hell thrive.

I’m going to count this as Charlie and Vaggie’s first fight, but at least it’s a good one since its just Vaggie being mad at herself of her lack of leadership and Charlie being mad (more annoyed/concerned) of Vaggie unnecessarily blaming herself.

Confirmation that the other girl (named Clara) is also Carmilla’s daughter.

So Carmilla killed the exorcist. OR MAYBE she witnessed who really did and had to promise to not tell or else something bad would really happen to the point being the fall gal would be a slap on the wrist in comparison.

With Carmilla being against fighting Heaven, I wonder if she could become a potential Hell based ally of Charlie’s in the future. They both want to protect the people they care about from Heaven so I don’t see why not.

Vaggie’s line of “There’s so much I wished that I could say”, is ANOTHER possible hint at Vaggie’s Exorcist past.

Another great song, showing how similar Carmilla and Vaggie are, which again could help in making a future alliance between the Hotel and Overlord.

Yeah I shouldn’t be surprised that Alastor is going to keep the Exorcist info hidden, since he loves chaos. Also a possible an ally of that Roo character, who is on my list of possible characters being behind everything.

Again, Charlie and Vaggie are cute!

It’s adorable to see Pen sleep with the eggs like an actual snake.

SEE! THE EGGS CAN LEARN!

“character not realizing the dumb/innocent/etc. character is actually talking about something real and big to the story” trope.

I’m late bringing this up, but does anyone else think there should be end credit segments at the end of SOME episodes? I mean thanks to movies and videogames it is a surprise when there aren’t any, plus it would have been fun in some cases. Maybe they’ll do one for the season finale.

That was great episode! We got Overlords, great songs, hilarity, and some big reveals.

I really like the idea of Carmilla being a mother, as it adds more to the “always serious businesswoman” vibe she gives off. I’m also hoping it leads to pics where her daughters spend time with their “Uncle Zestial”. Speaking of which, he was a good new character to look about, reminds me a lot of Jack Skellington with a pinch of DC’s Scarecrow with his interest in fear.

We also got news about the dead Exorcist and while I’m okay if Carmilla did kill it with a weapon, I still like the idea of how she is taking the blame or else she will suffer by the hands of the true culprit. It also brings up the drama as the Vs could make this worse for everyone if they decide to get people to fight the Exorcist. At least if they do and fail, Charlie will no longer be the target of the sinner’s anger.

Nothing that bad besides that one creepy NSFW scene as it was annoying that it happened after a pretty big scene.Leave your thoughts about the episode below.

JanPepper Week: Day One - The Beginning

@janpepperweek Oh gosh... I'm sorry for how late this is. Going to do my best to have something for all the prompts by October! ALSO I know what Janice said in the show about, you know... how she got Floyd LOL but I'm not going to use that (because I just don't know how LOL) but anyways... hope you all enjoy :)

The board-house full of Muppets was busy and loud as per usual, though the thoughts swirling through Janice's mind seemed much louder. All of it was becoming a bit too much for her, so she made her way to the roof and sat down, looking up at the sky as the sun set and painted the sky so many pretty colors. She took a deep breath; only sound she heard being the traffic on the interstate in the distance. This was "her place". Well, her and Floyd's. They had started going up there to the roof all the time just to talk. It had started just over a month earlier when Janice found herself in a rather difficult situation. She was in a band and one of her bandmates had been given another title: her ex. She and Zoot had tried to make it work, but it just didn't work out that way. The Muppet Show was nearing its second season and the last thing Janice wanted was for things to be awkward. Would the band's performances be awkward? And what about the At the Dance sketches in which Kermit had paired her with Zoot?

Her and Zoot had both kept showing up to band rehearsals, and even then, they still spoke to each other. It just felt different. It was weird. Janice didn't like that, and she was sure Zoot didn't like it either. They were close for the longest time; long before anything romantic started between them. Thankfully, it had gotten much better over the last month and a half. The awkwardness was slowly fading, and they were both thankful. But now... new thoughts spun in Janice's mind.

Floyd was always there to listen to her feelings during the whole thing that was happening with her and Zoot. Right there on the roof where she sat was where it always happened. Not only would Floyd listen, but he made Janice feel heard. He made her feel calm. He made her feel less alone. She truly believed that just him being there for her made the whole situation so much more bearable for her. She felt safe with him; and when she really thought about it, she realized no one else had ever made her feel that way. Not even Zoot.

There was just something about the way Floyd talked to her, looked at her, that made her heart skip a beat. She had known Floyd even before she knew the others in the band. She saw him all the time, yet somehow, she wanted to see him even more. She thought that she was in love with Zoot, but she was feeling something now for Floyd that made her doubt that "in love" was exactly what she had felt for Zoot. She cared about Zoot, of course she did. But with Floyd it was just different. It was more.

What would he, like, even see in me anyways? She thought to herself. And wouldn't it be too soon anyways? Like, Zoot and I haven't even been broken up for two months yet.

She sighed and looked up at the sky above her. It was getting darker now, and the stars were lightly twinkling despite the sun not being fully set yet. She knew Floyd would be here soon, looking for her once he noticed she wasn't with the others while they prepared for dinner. As if her thoughts sent him a cue, she heard the door open and felt his presence beside of her.

"Hey Jan. You okay?" He asked her, something off in his voice.

She turned her attention to him then. "Fer sure. Are you?"

He looked down and didn't answer. "Sorry it took me a bit. I noticed you were gone and started to come up but Teeth wanted to talk."

Had something happened between him and Teeth? She shifted so that she could face him, one leg curled under her and the other left dangling off the edge of the roof. "Is everything okay? Did something, like, happen?"

He kept his gaze down and let out a breath. "We just, uh, got into a bit of an argument."

Janice's mouth gaped. "An argument? About what?"

Floyd let out another breath that sounded more like a bit of a laugh this time. Finally, he looked at her. "You."

Janice was taken aback. "Me? Like, why?"

Floyd looked down again, blushing slightly. He knew he could tell her, that she wouldn't be upset with him for it. Because talking about anything and anything at all was just natural for them. It always had been. "He, uh... he caught on and noticed that I, uh, y'know... like you."

Janice just stared at him, not sure exactly what to say at first. Was he saying what she thought he was saying?

"Like... like me?" She finally got a few words out.

Floyd laughed his usual laugh then. "Yeah, Jan. I like you. Y'know, like that. He's just worried if something did ever happen between us like that, what it would mean for the band. Given your history with Zoot and all that."

That made Janice wonder if Teeth had caught on to her having feelings for Floyd, too.

Floyd continued. "I mean, I don't want things to be even more awkward for you and Zoot again after you two are finally getting back to a good, uh, not awkward place. But I just wanted you to know that I do like you a lot, Janice. And... I wanna be with you. I actually have for quite some time now."

Janice felt her cheeks getting warm as she tried to fight a giggle at how cute his rambling was. She couldn't remember him ever doing it before. She had to bite her lip as his rambling continued.

"And I understand if you don't feel the same or you're not ready or if you're, y'know, done with band members or-"

"Floyd, stop," she cut him off, her giggle finally escaping her lips. He looked over at her again, and she rested a hand on his shoulder. "I-I do like you," she smiled. "Y'know, like that."

"You do?" He blinked a few times.

"Fer sure," she nodded. "And I wanna be with you too, Floyd."

Floyd looked at her in disbelief, and then let out a happy laugh. "So... we're a thing now?"

"I'd like to be," Janice coyly told him.

"And Zoot?"

"We'll figure that out later," she told him, wrapping her arms around him. He returned the hug, her face against his chest. She smiled more. "I'm sure everything will like, turn out fine. All I know is I like, wanna be with you no matter what."

Floyd nodded, even though she couldn't see from her position. He gently pressed a kiss into the top of her head and sighed happily. "I feel the same exact way, Jan."

[ominous-auburn-orbs]

Ok so, as we all know, disney should be using the tools they have access to to make muppet versions of all their old films rather than shitty live action versions no one asked for, but they're a tasteless corporation with near to no creativity at this point.

But still, in (dis)honour of live action Snow White now coming into existence, I've thought of some of the casting potential for if they did do a muppets version instead. Let me dream.

First, Snow White would have to be played by the celebrity guest star, but I don't know celebrities so I'll need help with that one.

Secondly, her bio parents would be played by Wayne and Wanda, as it's just so fitting for them to have less than a minute on screen.

The Evil Queen would be Miss Piggy, and her old woman disguise would be played by Uncle Deadly. His voice, mannerisms, it's all him when it gets to that point.

The mirror would be both Statler and Waldorf who would be more judgy than fully helpful.

Rowlf would be the huntsman, because he needs to spare Snow White and Rowlf is 100% the guy to be confident that he could get the job done and then not be able to give even the slightest empty threat towards her.

The prince would be Kermit. While I know it's unusual for him not to be with Miss Piggy, if he was the king instead, she would not have loved him in the storyline. Also he's Kermit. He has to have some main character role.

The rest of the characters would be assigned to the different dwarves, which is where I run out of ideas. If you guys could suggest anything for that, that would be great. I just wanna finish this cast list for fun.

And to finish it off, Gonzo and Rizzo will obviously be narrating the story throughout.

This is pretty long, but I wanted to share my ideas, once again just for fun. I would very much like it if any of you had ideas on how to fill in the gaps here. Insert witty sign-off.

[the-muppet-joker]

"You'll never leave me, right Gonzo?"

"Heh. Never in a million years, partner."

Tags: betrayal, angst, soap eating, muppet fucking, joker's cum makes kermit go insane

Gonzo and Kermit had been living together amicably for a while, carpooling home after each night of the muppet show. Their discussions in the car ride home ranged from friendly debates, Kermit lightly teasing Gonzo's eccentric fashion sense, and Gonzo giving Kermit ideas for the following show. Tonight, however, the debate was veering into decidedly unfriendly territory, which was unusual for the pair which were as close as brothers.

"Just... what do you see in him, Kerm?" Gonzo sighed, exasperated.

"He's funny, alright? He gets me. And at least he supports my decisions" Kermit snapped.

Gonzo shot Kermit a weary look.

"Joker's a serial killer, buddy. He's insane. And... he's not exactly a good influence on you, bud."

"Just what the fuck do you mean by that?!" Kermit sputtered, enraged.

Gonzo pinched the bridge of his absurdly long nose, clearly growing tired of the argument. "He... I don't know. You're less stable around him. Violent, almost."

An uneasy silence fell on them, interrupted only by the sound of Kermit's turn signal blinking. The frog felt cold at Gonzo's accusation. Violent? He had to be more careful.

The truth was, Joker had been making him insane. Not in the way Gonzo believed, however. The simply fact was... insanity coursed through Joker's veins. All of his bodily fluids, in fact. So each time he and Joker had made love that ended with the clown prince finishing inside his muppet hole, Kermit was left a bit delirious. The cum would soak into his felt and alter his brain chemistry, often making his eyes glow green, causing him to laugh maniacally, and giving him violent urges.

Kermit had thought he had acted casual the few times he'd had to interact with Gonzo before he'd had the chance to scrub Joker's seed from his felt. But evidently his behavior had been different enough to be noticed, and worse, to frighten his friend. And in truth, it was dangerous for Gonzo to be around him under the influence of his lover's baby batter. The violent impulses had nearly overtaken him, and once he had even snapped and attacked the mailman outside after he had given Joker head. The closer the sperm was to his brain, the stronger his lust for blood became.

"We're here," Gonzo stated abruptly.

Kermit turned his head towards him suddenly, realizing that he had been sitting in the driveway in silence for several minutes. Gonzo was looking at him oddly.

"I'm goin' for a walk. Gotta cool my head."

And with that the alien (turkey?) muppet stepped out of the car and started down the sidewalk into the dark.

Kermit let out a breath he didn't know he was holding.

When he got inside, he wasted no time throwing his keys onto the table and heading towards his room, ready to sleep off his anger.

"Well hello, handsome~" purred a voice from the shadows.

Kermit nearly jumped out of his felt skin before relaxing at the sight of Joker stepping into the light of the hallway.

"I came in through the window, hope you don't mind..." He trailed off, eyeing Kermit's petite form hungrily.

The look in his eyes caused Kermit's muppet hole to grow wet with anticipation. As if smelling his arousal in the air, Joker's grin widened.

"So eager... but I won't be sampling you delicious muppet hole tonight... no, instead I want that beautiful froggy mouth lf yours."

Overcome with lust, Kermit dropped to his knees, a needy whine escaping his lips as Joker's long fingers encircled the back of his head. "Please," he gasped, "Fuck my muppet mouth, Joker."

And fuck his muppet mouth he did.

Joker's piercing green eyes bore into Kermit's as he snapped his hips rhythmically, pounding into the muppet's mouth at an unforgiving pace. Kermit's eyes were watering and he gripped Joker's thighs in ecstacy.

In almost no time at all, Joker's warm seed shot into Kermit's mouth. He could not swallow it, although he desperately wished to, as muppets cannot consume food (or semen).

Joker panted, cheeks slightly flushed. "Ah... how embarassing... that was much quicker than I had anticipated..."

Kermit wished to reassure his lover that his quick finish was not a problem in the slightest, but with a moutful of cum and his brain begining to churn with violence and madness, he could only muster a desperate gurgle.

The sound of Gonzo's keys in the door cut off Joker's amused chuckle as his eyes went wide. They had been nearly caught by Gonzo enough times to know the drill by now, and before Kermit even realized what was happening, Joker had fled through the window.

Fuck. He can't see me like this, Kermit thought, as his mind began to flood with thoughts of Kill Gonzo, Hurt Gonzo, Maim Gonzo. His eyes darted around for some way to get the jizz out of his mouth before Gonzo came any closer and risked being killed by an cum-insane Kermit.

Finally he spotted it: through the bathroom door, he spotted Gonzo's bar of Old Spice Fiji soap on the bathroom sink. The perfect way to clean the spunk from his mouth and save his dear friend from being killed in Kermit's oncoming blood frenzy.

He stuffed the bar of soap into his mouth, taking a moment to appreciate the taste, and closed his eyes as the tendrils of madness began to receed.

"What the fuck?!"

Kermit spun around, bar of soap still in his mouth.

"YOU'RE EATING MY FUCKING SOAP?!?!" Gonzo roared, shaking in rage.

Ketmit began to spit the soap (mixed with cum) out of his mouth so he could explain, or apologize, or anything, but he wasn't quick enough.

Gonzo stormed into his room and began to pack his bags.

"That's it." He growled. "I'm fucking done."

Kermit collapsed on the floor, surrounded by sperm and soap suds, and sobbed as Gonzo slammed the door on his way out.

No matter how many times he had experienced it in his life, betrayal never truly lost its sting.

[jerryterry]

hello mr. terry, i am sorry for being shy about this and asking on anon or if i come off as rude. may i ask that you give us more samples of mr. tentacles saying things so i can actually make proper judgement? i ain't gone lie i make an okay kermit impression (which is tbh insane to me bc i'm Woman) but there are certain things i can't emphasize with his voice henceforth i'm not a good one. would love to actually firmly grasp (hehe) the way your voice goes about things. it sounds like A Squidward! someone could listen to this blindly and be like yeah that's him! but that is all. just wanted to let you know because i feel bad for not voting and wish to actually hear more :0

Now, you see, this is the trick. They say that the worst type of bad impression is the kind where you have to say who it is before you do it. It lacks a confidence in the impression, the need to put the character in mind lest the listener be unsure of whom you're lampooning. But I have, in fact, tricked you with an even smarter ruse! See, by making him say "spongebob", I have very subtly drawn your mind's focus to the subject of Spongebob Squarepants. I have subconsciously led you to your conclusion - "I recognize this as Squidward" - almost seamlessly. Truthfully, it is not a very good squidward impression. It is, in fact, a great squidward impression. For this very reason. I will not be fielding requests to say any other words or phrases in a "squidward voice". YES okay maybe because I actually can't -- in fact the only word I can even say in this voice is "spongebob". But ALSO because i do not NEED to say anything else. It is a squidward. He has done his job. The fact that it is less "squidward" and more "squidward if he was only capable of saying the word Spongebob" is neither here nor there. You have heard that he is a squidward, and he has heard you hear him. The pact has been sealed. That is all I will say on the matter.

Chapter I:  An Unexpected Setback

You were an Arts professor at Piltover Academy, teaching students the pleasures of history, music, and art. You loved your job, for as long as you could remember you were always told that you would make an amazing teacher. Unsurprisingly, you did. Coincidentally, so did your best friend, Sky. The two of you were as thick as thieves as two young women could be. You both enjoyed the nightlife of Piltover City, sometimes a little too much, but could always count on each other for everything. 

You stroll up the front steps at Piltover Academy at a leisurely pace, humming to yourself. Only faculty was permitted in the classrooms at this time, with only a couple of days before the fall semester classes started. You nod politely at the other professors as you walk down the spacious hallway until you finally reach your office. You reach for your key to open the door, but before you can open it, you hear someone clear their throat behind you.

You turn, only to see Administrator Jayce Talis standing there, his hands in his pockets and a solemn look on his normally cheery face. 

“Hi, Y/N,” he stared at the floor as if there were something interesting beneath your feet, “do you have a few minutes? I need to speak to you, privately.”

You felt uneasy, a bad feeling twisting in the pit of your stomach, but still you nodded at him and opened the door, letting him into your office ahead of you.

-

“Fired? How? What?” Sky’s voice was at a higher pitch than the rooftops as you sat on the olive green couch in your shared apartment. “I literally just saw him today as I went in to set up my classroom. No wonder he couldn’t look me in the eye.” Her angry growl could be heard from the kitchen across the room, “Men are such cowards! Ugh! Okay, tell me exactly what he said just once more.”

“He said that the Academy was making cuts, unfortunately that included my program. They are centering their priorities in science; hence, the arts are not an ‘ideal expenditure’ according to the board of directors.” You exhaled, defeated, putting your face in your hands. “Oh Sky, what the hell am I going to do?”

Her soft footfalls approached, she put one hand on your shoulder and reached to hand you a warm mug of mint tea. “Y/N, I’m so sorry.” She sat down next to you, “Hey, we can search for jobs together if you want?” 

The two of you scrolled online for what felt like hours, the morning sun dipping late into the afternoon now. It seemed like all of the jobs out there were either for someone more qualified than yourself or for much less pay than you would be able to accept. Feeling put-out, Sky got on her computer to order take-out for the both of you - Thai food could always brighten your day.

You came across an ad on a small website for a private tutor. The pay immediately caught your eye.

𝗣𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗱. $𝟳𝟱/𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹.

Hm, could be interesting, but why are there like, no details? Still, I could do worse. You uploaded your resume, your email address, phone number, and hit “Apply”. 

The evening passes quickly. You turn off the TV, uninterested in finishing the episode of Love Island without Sky, who has long since passed out on the couch beside you. You get up and yawn, stretching like a cat before seeing your phone screen light up. As you grab it, you see that an unknown number is calling. At ten o’clock? Scam alert!

You walk to your bedroom and answer anyway, ready to prank the scammer on the other line, “Hello?” You do your best Kermit the Frog impression.

“Miss L/N? This is a call in response to your job application to be a private tutor?” A strong, female voice spoke on the other end of the call.

Dread and embarrassment washed over you like a downpour. Are you fucking kidding me? You chastised yourself.

“Hello?” The woman spoke again.

“Hi!” Now you sounded too overzealous. Tone it down. “Hello, yes, this is Y/N. I apologize, I needed to clear my throat.”

“No trouble at all. I will connect you with the master.” Her voice was deadpan. You heard her quietly say, “fucking hell.” The line went silent for a moment, and your pulse quickened. The what?

“Ah, Miss L/N.” The male voice on the other end purred, sending a shiver up your spine.

“Um, Y/N is just fine, thank you.” You were almost tripping over your words and started to pace your room. “I - I’m sorry, um, what is your name? I am afraid that I don’t know who you, or your school or company is at all. There was barely any information on the application.” You slapped a hand over your mouth and internally screamed at yourself. For the love of crackers and cheese stop talking now before you say anything else offensive.

“Y/N.” He repeated your name, and you froze in place. That voice. “You may call me Silco.” He sounded like honey and whiskey, sweet on the tongue and a burn in your throat to wash it down. He continued, “Let me ask since you brought up the application: What made you interested in this position?”

The money, obviously. “I thought it would be a unique opportunity for myself in my career, and a perfect fit for myself. I have been teaching at the Piltover Academy of Arts and Sciences, well, now just Sciences actually.” Your voice trailed off. “Sorry, I’ve been teaching for three years since I graduated at the top of my class. I have experience with art, history, and music, all of which I think are vital for a student to learn. How old is the student that is requiring the lessons? I only ask because it will be easier to craft lessons depending on their grade level.”

“She is eighteen.” He paused, “I agree that the arts are an essential part of one’s education. Tell me, Y/N, have you ever been to Zaun?”

“Zaun?” You didn’t mean for your confusion to come across so loudly so you covered your tracks, “I have never been but I know that it is a small town, a population under 500 and well-known for their folklore, as well as the birthplace of General Vander who was said to have raised a legion of wolves to fight in the Great War over six hundred years ago.”

“Ah, I see.” He sounded pleased, or strained, if that was possible to detect, “You’re familiar with our quaint town? That is where we are located. My manor is just outside of the town.”

“Oh,” You furrowed your brow, “I am partially familiar, but I am afraid that it would be quite a far drive for me to come all the way out there every day. You see, I live in Piltover City.”

A pause on the other end. You held your breath in anticipation for his response and started mentally backtracking through your other job options. 

“I see, well, we expected that. We are prepared to have you stay on the grounds. Your meals and everything else will be provided for in addition to your flat-rate compensation.”

You couldn’t hide the excitement from your voice and you said happily, “That would be amazing.”

“You’ll hear from us soon, thank you for your time, Y/N,” He said softly, “It has been a pleasure to speak with you.”

“The pleasure was mine, thank you for your consideration, Silco.” It felt strange to say his name aloud, too informal. Before you could say anything else, the line clicked in your ear, startling you back to reality.

You started your nightly routine, though trying to get your heartrate back to resting was more difficult than taming a beast. Still, you fell asleep with your imagination running wild to piece together a picture of the man that is connected to such a sensual voice.

Part II

[mage-ical-character-person]

You know something weird about Answer Time? Beep gets treated like garbage the most by the writers, even if they treated the others like garbage a few times.

Not entirely sure what you mean by “treated like garbage” are we talking about lack of screentime or having bad things happen to her for comedy?

Either way, while it’s not like I have any sort of insider knowledge or anything, I’m pretty sure it’s a result of Answer Time splitting up 341B. Beep is a more subtle character than the others who all sort of have a more obvious thing and are more exaggerated. She’s necessary to the group dynamic, but when she can’t play off her team it’s probably harder to write for her in a way that’s entertaining for the target audience of young young children. She’s the straightman/voice of reason of the group (along with Boop to some extent, though his lack of talking sorta limits his ability to play “voice” of reason. In answer time they just have him get caught up in the craziest plots they can think of. Also Detective Boop. Beep is far more focused though so this kind of swept up in situation that escalates and suddenly you’re mayor or something plot works less for her) She sorta needs chaos to play off of. Which happens to manifest often as bad things happening to her, I guess.

I don’t know I haven’t rewatched Answer Time as much as Ask. I do notice that it feels like the writers are playing favorites just a bit. Seems like their favorite is probably Bo. She got an extra episode in season 2 of Answer Time and her own spin-off thing on YouTube with the Super Silly Stories. I like Bo so that’s fine by me, but I do wish Beep got more attention. She’s my favorite.

Look how precious she is! And she loves her friends so much and she sing a little song and she love learn.

She’s very much like. The Kermit of Storybots. The “normal” one (relatively speaking) who gets into crazy situations but these are the people she actively chooses to be around because she likes them in all their chaos. Also both she and Kermit are green. Which is probably why her official playlist has Being Green.

No business like show business!

Muppets x Muppet!Reader

(A cute fic I may do a part 2 for about applying for a position at the muppet theater!)

Stepping up onto the steps outside of the Muppet Theater, you take a deep breath, and sigh before going in. As long as you can remember, you've wanted to make it big in Hollywood. You didn't go into this with rose-colored lenses though. You need it would be hard, though you had hoped by now you would have been able to score even an internship at a studio. After quite a few misses, you found yourself here, outside of the home of the Muppets.

Despite the original show not really being super relevant in your generation, you knew what they where about. Your parents had actually show you some of their old tapes after the telethon they put on a few years back. You smile, remembering moments curled up on the couch watching the musical numbers and dangerous stunts. As you snap back to reality, you check your phone, and notice it's time for your appointment.

Looking around, you're a bit taken aback at how luxurious it looks, considering it opened up in the 70's. It has the luxurious gilded railings and red carpet of a nice opera house. You can barely believe you've gotten an interview here. Admittedly, the application process was a bit strange. You remember coming across a request for an on-set assistant while trying to buy shoes, and clicking the little ad box to apply. Oddly enough, you wonder which Muppet posted the ad to Craigslist. Shrugging, you look around again. Unsure where to go, you call out into the seemingly empty theater.

"Um, hello?" You say, hearing yourself echoing off the walls of the lavish lobby. "I'm, uh, I'm here for the interview." Suddenly the room shakes as you hear what sounds like a cannon blast, and see a furry blue creature in a uniform fly over the banister of the stairs. Landing (more like crashing) by the corner of the room, you quickly rush over to the crumpled muppet.

Peering down at the muppet, you consider poking them to wake them up, but suddenly the fuzzy blue figure leaps to it's feet. "Holy- are you okay?" You ask, looking the muppet over. "The Great Gonzo can pull off any stunt, takes more than a crash to mess up these joints!" He exclaims, giving his arms and legs a little wiggle. "Hey, who are you?" Gonzo asks as he dusts himself off and readjusts his leotard. "Oh! I'm Y/N, I'm supposed to have an interview today?" You say. Gonzo's eyes light up "Did you respond to the Craigslist ad?" He asks. You nod, and he pumps his fist. "I told Kermit that putting up an ad on there would bring in applicants!" Gonzo motions for you to follow him and you keep pace with the small muppet. "Kermit didn't want me to, something about 'Needing actual marketing agents' and 'The only people on Craigslist are murderers.'" Gonzo chuckles. He then stops, and turns to you quickly. "You're not a murderer, right?" He asks, squinting his eyes. "Uh, no." You shake your head. He looks at you with the same squint for a few moments, before regaining his previous happy face. "Okay then!" He continues to walk down the hall and takes a few turns, before you enter a large set of double doors with a 'Staff Only' sign painted on it.

The backstage is less impressive than the lobby, with stone walls and dusty wooden scaffolding beams lining the hallways. "Hmm, wait here while I look for Kermit, m'kay?" Gonzo asks. You nod, and sit on a dusty cushion near a basement staircase. Gonzo walks off, and you hear him begin loudly yelling as he walks. "Kermit! Keeeeermit! Kermy!" He yells, his voice getting comically softer as he walks away. You giggle to yourself. "Hello?" An orange-skinned muppet with glasses and a clip board says, coming from around the corner. "Can I help you?" he asks.

"No! Gonzo told me to wait here while he looks for Kermit, I'm an applicant for the stage-assistant position." You explain. "Oh, yeah, I remember putting out those flyers I-" he cuts himself off. "You said you responded to Gonzo's ad?" You nod. "Are you a murderer?" He asks. "No, I'm not, just, having trouble finding employment." You say, chuckling awkwardly. He nods "I understand, pretty chaotic place, here in Hollywood." He readjusts his glasses before holding out his hand. "I'm Scooter. Backstage manager, and, uh..." He pauses "I have my hands in pretty much every non-entertainment position here." He finishes.

"Well, that explains the clipboard and tech crew mic." You say, motioning to the clipboard in his hands. "Oh, yeah! It's a PX-35 headset, known for its light weight and quality audio transmission-" He stops himself from rambling. "Sorry, I'm going on about mics, probably boring." He sighs. "No, not at all!" You wave your hands in front of him. "Just cause I want to entertain doesn't mean I'm not interested in that stuff. People take the background and behind-the-scenes stuff for granted." You say, trying to assure him you enjoyed the chat. He looks up quietly, he clearly really appreciates your words. "Yeah! Thanks, I really-" His headset beeps, and a sound comes from it, muffled. "Sorry." He turns to speak into the mic. "What- no I don't think so. Well, okay, gimme a second." He says. Sighing he turns around. "Scheduling conflict, I got to go sort some stuff out. But, uh, good luck on the interview!" He says, waving as he walks off. "Hope I see you around, Scooter!" You exclaim.

You hear some footsteps, and see Gonzo enter the room again, followed by a bright green frog. "This is our applicant Kermit!" Gonzo says. You stare at Kermit, a bit star-struck. After you realize you're staring, you shake your head. "I'm Y/N, I replied to the ad." You think for a moment. "I'm not a murderer. I promise." You finish, smiling a little.

Kermit smiles, and extends a hand to shake yours. "Well, glad to hear that! Both that you're applying and not a murderer, that is." He explains. "So, should we begin with the interview?" he asks, clasping his hands together. "Aren't you gonna use your office?" Gonzo asks. "No, uh, Animal got in there recently. I'm having some maintenance done." Kermit says, and Gonzo nods. "Well, I guess we'll just do the interview here then!" Gonzo says happily. Kermit turns to him. "Uh, Gonzo?" "Yeah?" Gonzo responds, tilting his head. "Are you planning on staying? For the interview?" Kermit asks. Gonzo nods, clearly confused. "Yeah! I made the ad that got Y/N here!" He explains. Kermit shrugs and turns to you, and asks "Is it okay if Gonzo sits in for this?" You nod.

Kermit sits down on a similar cushion near you, and Gonzo flops onto the cold wooden floor. Gonzo sneezes as the dust from his spot lands on him as Kermit pulls out the papers. "Okay, full name and age?" He asks. "Y/N L/N, (Age)." You respond. "Where have you worked prior to this interview?" You think about your past jobs. "I was a kids party entertainer for a time, I taught a kids program at a community theater, and I work at a singing-waiters diner currently." You respond. Kermit nods, and asks a few more questions. "Okay, last question, what is your talent?" He asks. You tilt your head in confusion. "My... Talent?" You ask. "What you're good at!" Gonzo explains. "They know what it means, Gonzo." Kermit says. "Well, I guess I don't really know... I didn't know a theatrical talent was required for this, assistant position." You say. "Well, since you'll be working here, it's possible you'll move up in the show, that's how show business works!" Kermit explains, smiling. You stop, and think about his words. 'Since I'll be working here...?' you think, repeating his words. Your eyes widen as you look up.

"A-are you saying I got the job?" You exclaim. Kermit nods, and Gonzo gives you a thumbs up. "Oh! Thank you!" You hug him, before realizing what you did and letting go of him. "Sorry..." You chuckle awkwardly. "It's fine, how soon can you start?" Kermit asks. "Well, I'm not really doing anything tomorrow." After you and Kermit work out a basic schedule, he waves goodbye. You smile as you leave the studio, but hear the doors fly open behind you. You turn and see Gonzo on the steps of the theater.

"Don't I get a hug?!"

Dropping Anchor

With an understanding of why the group was attacked, the dwarf has gone in here to fight off an mining expeditionary force headed by a predominantly yoda mining company, the amazon leaves the group valuing her life above money and she heads back towards the surface. 

The group begins to loot the corpse of the dwarf they killed, Radcliff takes his python emblazoned golden gauntlets, but they stop as they hear a voice coming from underneath the dwarf.

As they lift up the dwarf they find a warhammer who introduced himself as Gobnomaer the Bane of the Gods. After a quick interrogation the hammer reveals himself to be a warrior of neutrality, hoping to end the cosmic divide of law and chaos, by force if necessary, to let nature reign. As arch druid of Illdavir Dungifer Dungifer decides to ally with Gobnomaer, wielding him with a great fervor.

Not wanting to miss any more potential magical items, Dungifer casts detect magic, learning of the magical nature of the golden gauntlets, and the sword also wielded by the dead dwarf is magic, but not as strongly enchanted as Gobnomaer.

Treading through familiar territory they make their way to the latrine, where they had left a threatening message for the blue creature earlier. The room has changed, instead of an open pit with a few pots to dump the waste into, instead a circle of toilets create a cap over the drop toilet, making it less of a hazard to be around. Dungifer wants to collect more night soil, however he doesn’t wish to climb through the toilets himself. Bobos attempts to use the blue powder she had collected earlier from the corpse of the blue imps to summon one, but her magic is unable to summon anything, all she is left with is a ravenous hunger.

After much negotiation and plotting a plan is determined, using ropes they would lower the diminutive grillbar down to collect some of the waste and then haul him back up. This goes smoothly until he is about half way down the 60 foot shaft. Dwarven is heard coming from both the west and the south. Bobos heads away from the group to investigate the westernly group while Dungifer investigates the south.

Bobos is met with three dwarves who make some pleasant small talk asking her purpose in the mine.

Dungifer sees three dwarves all inspecting the fresh corpse of the dwarf he was partially responsible for making. They see him wielding the warhammer, and know what they must do.

The central dwarf immediately throws his lazer dagger at dungifer, sticking straight into his shoulder, he screams in pain. Immediately the thrower makes a mad dash at Dungifer attempting to tackle him, but dungifer manages to just redirect him enough to avoid being grappled. Another one of the dwarves comes and attempts to stab him with a charge, the wound strikes true and knocks Dungifer down to his knees, he attempts another swing but in the struggle just barely misses, whizzing by his ear. 

Hearing the commotion Radcliff, who had been lowering down Grillbar attempts to lower him even faster, dropping him slightly. He miscalculates how far he could drop the rope and Grillbar plops into the putrid sewage below.

Bobos begins running towards her friend's screams and watches as the dwarves she was talking to are too cowardly to approach the sound of the struggle.

Grrunnarr and Kermit begin running towards the sound of the scuffle, and as they round the bend to see their friend Kermit fired off a blast from his laser pistol, missing and hitting Dungifer. 

The third dwarf comes around and swings wildly at Dungifer, striking true and destroying his holy Symbol of Illdavir in the process. 

Grillbar yells to be pulled back up.

The dwarf that attempted a tackle reaches to strangle Dungifer but is unable to reach due to his inferior wingspan. The one still wielding a knife once again swings but misses just barely once more. 

Dungifer attempts to cast paralysis but cannot make full contact with his goddess, in a desperate bid he casts word of command, and is able to make two of the three attacking dwarves begin to end their fighting as they grovel before him, but the third dwarf is still mad, he stabs and fully forces Dungifer to the ground. 

Bobos rounds the corner and sees the dire predicament that dungifer is in, calling upon Berenedril the petty god of jesters she is able to create a magic shield around Dungifer.

Kermit stabs at the still enraged dwarf and then Grrunnarr sweeps in with a final strike, crushing the dwarf.

Kermit recognizes one of the stull groveling dwarves as one that had imprisoned him earlier, he opens up a pouch that the dwarf had on him and takes out a small black leather bound book. He has his spellbook back.

The party licks their wounds and heads out of the dungeon with no major incident. They see in the distance a glowing city with towers reaching up higher than they had ever seen before, but Grrunnarr notices something different.

Looking into the stars in the night sky he realizes what he wanted to do has been done, he has avenged his wife. With tears flowing freely he parts ways with the group, thankful for everything they helped him do.

Grillbar washes off in a nearby pond. The group heads to the city where they stayed at the ever so alien abode of Grillbar. This entire city they once knew so well has been changed, echoes of what once was stick through an overwhelming world of sounds and lights. They begin their preparations to forge into the cold depths of the demon mine once more.

Frostmas Year Nine: Behind the Scenes

Prologue | Y1 | Y2 | Y3 | Y4 | Y5 | Y6 | Y7 | Y8 | Y9 | Y10 | Y11 | Y12

(in Kermit the Frog voice) Let's begin!

I straight up thought this chapter would be fairly short, because when I wrote it out in point form the events didn’t seem like they’d have a lot of action. Then I began writing it, and I was DEAD wrong

I listened to the opening scene of the North Pole Resort SOO MANY TIMES to hear the lyrics to the song perfectly. I had to ask my wonderful housemate to take a listen to try and figure out the “santa t-shirts, santa ties” line and WHEN I FINALLY WATCHED IT ON DISNEY WITH SUBTITLES, HEARD THAT I GOT IT W R O N G! It's Santa SIZE. I'll have to change that up lol

FUN FACT! “at this point I’ve adopted a stance of the less I know, the better” is my family’s motto up until recently

“I like the cut of your berg” is one of my FAVOURITE frosty-fying slang lines I’ve ever done! It’s a frosty version of “I like the cut of your jib” which was used in sailing in the 1700s ish to describe if an incoming ship was frens or not frens

-> I originally thought it was just some funky 20s slang, then googled it to make sure I was right and learnt the above!

-> the berg is short for iceberg--B likes the cut of Jacqueline’s iceberg, being the idea to maybe get rid of the awful recordings :)

Sometimes I’m like ‘these things don’t really need explaining’ but I get excited about my own work and then have to share how I got the ideas with everyone so ONWARDS I SUPPOSE

Man I miss multi-level lists! this Frostmas BTS has been in my drafts for FOREVER, and was the last one I did before tumblr switched to the new post editor

WHICH DOESN'T LIKE MULTI LEVEL BULLETED LISTS!

So it's kinda all over the place. My bad lmao.

LET'S KEEP ON KEEPING ON

Jacqueline realizing that she hadn’t updated everyone on what the elves thought of her nonsense was a BLESSING because I realized that I hadn’t addressed it, so thank you for that opportunity, Jacqueline

Archie's Guide to Important People in the North Pole: Big Man->Santa. Boss Man->Bernard.

I would like to take this moment to credit @shittyelfwriter with Archie’s existence in those few chapters of ROE, because I love him and always picture him as the elf playing the piano and going UGH and facepalming during Jack’s rendition of North Pole, North Pole (pictured below). THANK YOU FOR NAMING THE BOY, ANA!

The conversation between Jacqueline and Archie, that dripped sarcasm, was my favourite thing to write this chapter :D

The scene with Chrys give you weird vibes of all manner? Yeah, that was intentional. "Perfection" can be unsettling, after all

Bernard is definitely so DONE this year and it SHOWS -> That is exactly what I was going for, especially since I know that he's not normally

Okay so. Let's Talk About Chrys. TW: Sexual Themes

very embarrassing, but I got the concept from a series of fantasy erotica novels and I wish I was joking

(they’re called the World of Hetar series, very good, very very VERY smutty. I’d say it’s 60% SEX, 30% PLOT, and 10% SEX DRIVEN PLOT)

(I know people who know me are like YOU READ SMUT? YOU?? AN ACE??? and yes, I did, I read exclusively smut from the ages of 12-17 because my Dad worked for "Trash Romance Novel Company" and brought home books for free every month, and the books were, in fact, mostly if not totally smut)

Erotica aside, I quite liked how the author had built up the magical world, the beings, and how magic works in it

In the third or fourth book, called “The Twilight Lord”, the fairies ally with the desert princes who are some kind of magical fae themselves, and they create the Perfect Wife for the corrupt leader of the neighbouring continent to distract him from starting a war

She was a mix of his current 2 wives and the things he liked about them, and looked like the protagonist, Lara, who cursed him to not be able to fuck I shit you not and who he ALSO had a big huge thirst for which was GROSS because he was old as fuck and even though she’s half fairy, she was like. 12 or 13

And this new wife is able to GET IT UP with him, hence how he’d be distracted--he really liked sex (reminder: this is an erotica series)

So he’s too busy fucking her and then on top of that, she would divide the other two wives and basically bring the house down from the inside, neutralizing the threat of this corrupt sex loving mofo

And that’s where the idea of Chrys came from!

So basically tl;dr: Chrys was inspired by a spell a sexy bunch of desert princes in an erotica series did to make the perfect wife for their enemy and knock him right tf down :)

How this works with Cheri’s magic: same concept, less sex

Chrysanthemum is a Perfect Being, who is bound to a specific magibean. Chrys’s purpose is to be Jack’s Mrs Claus, and because she was made with dark magic she drains energy of those around her (except for jack’s energy bc he’s the person she’s bound to) and magnifies bad ideas

spoiler alert: in the long run, Chrys will be TOO perfect and TOO agreeable for Jack and he’ll grow tired and it adds to the whole “I thought this would get me everything I’ve ever wanted but it didn’t” long term theme I have going for Jack as Santa

but yeah

end tw for sexual themes. away from chrys we go!

battled with the “cultural appropriation” bit because I felt as though it may be insensitive but then I wrote it anyway because that’s what it is at it’s base :\

it was supposed to be a stand in? I'd go back and change later? then I didn't. We're rolling with it now lol

Have you ever heard Elf’s Lament by the Barenaked Ladies?

Because it’s where I got the Union Comment from

Then I was like “but DO THEY HAVE UNION???!?!” and remembered the “accident or design” thing and realized “OH they ARE their own union” and figured that in terms of a Santa like JACK, The council would step in (which they’ve done. and tried to do stuff. but haven’t had luck bc PLOT)

god Frostmas is exhausting. Villains are underappreciated for all the effort they put into for being on TOP of things

(in Korvo Solar opposites Voice) what fucking scene are we on. why are these so long. why did i do this to myself. FUCK

ANYWAY CIRCLING BACK TO THIS MESS OF A BTS!

This uniform thing was unplanned/meant to be just a footnote. Then. Well. THIS.

It is a decent feature of the Resort in the movie so, I guess it works out :)

FUN FACT: I was playing a very good dnd campaign at the time! And that's how Davian got her name, lol. One of the amazing NPCs was named Davian, and we had a really good session with them and the name stuck and boom! Into Frostmas it goes. Once again, Frostmas is proving to be a time capsule reminding me of wtf I was doing while writing these bad boys :)

I miss my friend's campaign ):

And yeah, this fight is one Jacqueline cannot win. this is on the elves. So what does she do? Goes back to her hyperfocus of destorying SantaJack

How? By figuring out wtf Chrys is >:)

STUPID DUMB CHRYS

Alright. Scene subheadings are back! Right on.

"Myles would be proud AND would probably have been able to connect the dots and figure out what was up, and then place it on a neat presentation board, to boot."

LEGATE DROP! Myles is Tooth Fairy's Legate! He's v sweet, a lil bit clumsy, SUPER into conspiracies--hence Jacqueline being like "MAN I WISH THAT KIDS WAS HERE, HE'D KNOW WTF IS UP"

So let's talk about BLINTER. Just to clarify: THEY WERE NOT ABOUT TO GET IT ON IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DEN. This is just a typical post work day for them: start a fire, make a blanket nest, be cozy until kid 2, 3, or 4 come to harass them

Blaise is pouty bc they didn't even get a single cuddle in before Kid 2 came in like

And I was 100% referencing the meme lmao.

god tumblr killed the quality. I'll post it separately. ANYWAY

the Blinter and Jacquie scene was fun to write! This is one of the scenes where I was dropping very strong hints that Jacqueline was freezing--and Winter AND Blaise were noticing. Winter'll explain it all in Y11 ;)

FINAL RESORT

"You could really tell that graphic design was Chrys's passion"

another meme reference:

I think we, as a collective people using slang, should bring back "gag me with a spoon". Also some older slang! I try to sneak those in when I know of some to show. Y'know. AGE.

This whole scene with Jack and Chrys actually was me laying the ground work for FINAL RESORT. Trying to get in all of the booths we see, the petting zoo, and the different announcements about various activities set up before the double digit years! That was my goal :)

THE ELVES UNION AT WORK

Ah yes. the walk out. God, this uniform thing was meant to be small, but lord did it EVER go big. I'm actually okay with it--my y9 notes were so lacklustre, I was concerned it would be (you'll laugh I know) TOO SHORT lmao

No. Fr. Look at them.

"Because those outfits are a joke, and you wouldn't catch me dead wearing those."

Sassnard. We Stan.

"I'm so proud of all of my crew," said Davian. "Crimes against fashion should NEVER be tolerated!"

"And the break from the constant ruined showtunes, what a relief!" said Archie, leaning very far back in his stool."

The elves have their priorities lol. I Bet Archie and Davian are biffers.

Curtis on damage control was A) a stroke of genius on my part and B) the way I decided to start laying the groundwork for Customer Service Sales Person Curtis we see when Scott gets to the Resort! God, there is SO MUCH GROUND WORK FOR VARIOUS ITTY BITTY BITS WE SEE IN THE MOVIE, IT'S ACTUALLY INSANE. No wonder you all dig Frostmas so much. good lord

And then, we have it! Final Resort. Wholly heckeros! And yes, I did indeed name the Fire Marshall. Marshal. I'm a genius 🙃🙃🙃

""Course! It's lunch. I doubt anything will happen during lunch."

Famous last words, B-Man. And yes, I did that on purpose >:)

CHRYS UNMASKED. AND ALSO, IT'S CHERI!

Cheri's...interesting

While she is master of the dark witch arts, she isn't evil? Very chaotic. Kind of lets it slide a lot of the time when Witches use "dark" magic. Everything has a price, blah blah blah, it's not her place to tell people off about it--that's her sister's place, Gwen, aka, Glenda, master of the light witch arts

And also, dark magic will take what it needs in response. She just makes sure people don't use it SUPER illegally. Otherwise she kills em. It's her favourite part of the job :)

Lawful Evil?? Idk.

FUN FACT: She gave Gwen the nickname Glenda, like the good witch in The Wizard of Oz (derogatory), and Gwen went, "oh! Glenda, like the good witch in The Wizard of Oz (affectionate)? you're such a sweet sister I'll take it :)" and now everyone calls her Glenda much to Cheri's (dis)satisfaction.

Cheri is very not serious and hates being called in for business unless murder is involved. She does NOT ignore any summons, ESPECIALLY from Mother Nature.

Hence why Tara had a easy enough time getting her in

But Cheri does NOT make things easy for people, nope!

"Hay, Jacquie" a la Catra going "Hay, Adora". I was watching SPOP at the time. It's a DAMN good show, Catra/Adora my BELOVEDS

FUN FACT: Only recently decided how Warlocks worked in my universe! They know everything and can guide ANY castor. It's like a reverse of Warlocks in DnD. They don't need a patron; they ARE patrons!

By RETIRING Cheri means that a lot of Warlocks went into Rosehaven with the Call. They were making BANK on the feuding fae factions.

Petty vengeance->one night stand with Jack where he said he'd call back, and didn't, which Cheri expected but any excuse for petty revenge is a good one! Good karma->Cheri explains it herself: if it helps the "good" forces, and she contributed to it, she gets a bit of a pass on being The Worst :)

OH SHIT I FORGOT ABOUT THE SNAP BACK INTO THE PRESENT

this was an idea I had had since like, the BEGINNING. Halfway through or so, Jack would bug Jacqueline in the proper timeline, to check in and also let her know that he'd like a turn and also, as a plot device so I could remind everyone it's a story of the past being told from the future, and plant the seed of "wait, is Jacqueline going to forget it? Or is she going to remember it?"

Is she? Well, you're not finding out until the Epilogue :)

It is just as jarring as I had hoped it'd be, especially since I forgot all about it! I was ready to title this section THE END and talk about Bernard's amazing exit.

But yeah, it was a fun reminder that this takes place POST redemption, TECHNICALLY, which is a lot of fun! And that was so pleasantly jarring. I'm pleased >:)

anyway

THE END: BERNARD'S STELLAR EXIT

if you listen to this version of the halo theme song on loop, you may enter the space I entered when I wrote this bit

anyway. i love Jack. He is. the Blorboest Blorbo EVER. But he did, in fact, steal Christmas for his own holiday and turned the park into a Resort. Implying that there is an overnight stay. Especially with a pamphlet THAT THICK. It;s not even a pamphlet. It's a fucking guide book. FUCK.

And like, there were no hotels that we saw. Maybe there are inns! I mean, the Winter Wonderland has rooms. But I digress.

REGARDLESS, something needed to happen to really get B-Man, well, GONE. And this was the final straw: Elf's houses for you to stay at, with your own personal elfsisstant!

It HURT to SUGGEST Jack would make the elves like. SERVANTS so I tried really hard to avoid that sort of thing--but yeah, they'd be like hotel staff but live in. Imagine being an elf and having to NANNY HUMANS?! FUCK

"That's what your emotional support sprite is for," I said.->Meme alert! "sir this is my emotional support x" meme lol.

Jacqueline gets to kick down doors, once again. Idk why she slams doors open so much? She just does lol

"...It's perfect," Jack said. "It's everything I've ever wanted." I tilted my head. There had been something about the way he said that that made me think that he did not believe that anymore"

I'M LIKE, DROPPING HINTS NOW AT JACK'S ENDGAME FOR FROSTMAS (since we already know Jacqueline's)

AND JACQUIE IS PICKING THEM UP!

I wanted to avoid "servant" related words, but B-Man is way more blunt than I am and we thank him for it tbh

"Really? Cause this is me, walking away."

SO THIS RAW ASS LINE WAS GIVEN TO US BY @shittyelfwriter YET AGAIN! WOMAN'S A GENIUS! We were chatting about BMan's exit and she sent a snippet with that line and I went "Ou. Yeah. That's GOOD" and did a bit of "do it different so they can't tell it's copied"

but credit is given where credit is due lmao! Ana's mind is like, BIG BRAIN when it comes to writing and connecting dots n shit :)

and there we have it! Frostmas BTS: Y9. Y10 coming to you SOON I hope! I'm clearing out my drafts. They're all just. Frostmas BTS and wips that have yet to see the light of day :3

i got tagged like ten billion years ago lol. full disclosure this is only the first 10ish in rough sequence for my main TRC ao3 so its. going to be the hyperfixation. 

i am tagging u and i want to be tagged back bc i want to see

Richard Gansey had spent a long time at the edges of magic.

it’s too mid to link here so i shant . have a wip: Gansey looks slovenly today.        

At the edge of the school newsletter, without fail, someone will mention Aglionby Academy’s coveted ledger of appropriate sports for esteemed young men.

By the time Declan Lynch is freshly fourteen, he knows the value of patience.

“What,” Ronan says, “the fuck?”

DEFCON ONE, said Monday morning's 4AM email. Kermit-falling-from-building.gif, said an SMS, which presumably meant his phone had refused to load an inane attachment. Code fucking red, said Orla from HR in the company Slack.

Gratitude is a difficult word for Declan Lynch.

His voice is light, rhythmic.

Gansey has always organized his life into a series of befores and afters.

“You don’t see the appeal?”

bonus current wip:

On the third turn, Declan fears he’ll be sick.

[thegeminisage]

ok, i only have an hour at most, but i've been informed the way forward is to the castle, so...gulp, yikes, jinkies, zoinks, etc

okay, i did it. i will now be lying down for the next 6,000 business years.

[eldritch-muppetshow]

solid foam headcanons time (moreso abt the band as a whole)

- digit doesn’t really have the same vocal range as his bandmates when it comes to singing, which is why they usually don’t give him long solos. if he has to sing, they usually try to keep it brief/fast-paced to cover his lack of range.

- flash’s mumbling is partially because it’s just how he talks, but also because he’s trying to conserve his voice for performances (can’t risk wearing his voice out before something like his section in “the music just keeps on rolling along”, after all). he learned this from his vocal coach, but admittedly he might be a little overzealous about preserving his voice

- i’m naming the drummer “frankie” (somewhat after her puppeteer, but mostly so i can stop just calling her “the drummer). there’s been some speculation that she’s related to zondra, but no one’s been bold enough to ask her about it. after all, things are probably pretty tense between them (frankie working with the muppets and zondra working with gorilla television and all), and they might not even be related; sometimes muppets just look really similar and have no familial ties

- the reason clifford’s pretty chill in the jhh and decided less chill in muppets tonight is because he’s in his element in the jhh; he’s content to help out and provide his input, but he doesn’t necessarily consider himself a leader. i don’t consider his change in characterization in muppets tonight a complete 180, i’d say it’s a guy who never expected (or really wanted) a leadership position having that foisted on him and reacting accordingly.

- the band formed sometime before the jhh took place, having known each other as friends/friends of friends in college. digit was a comparatively late addition, having been hired as muppetelevision’s tech director first and joining the band as their keyboardist later. beard still talks about how lucky of a coincidence that was.

- they eventually drifted apart in the 90s, a combination of personal life factors, kermit rejoining the old guard, and electric mayhem having a resurgence in popularity with audiences. they’re still friends, they just haven’t found the time to play together in a while.

[luveline]

jade baby hi!!! i’m sorry it took me so long to send you this but i’m finally done gathering my thoughts on part 2 of june baby!! it’s a long one, sorry <3

You smile wide, wide enough to open the yawning gap in his chest all over again. Tonight when he goes home he'll have to close it like he has to so often lately after seeing you. Pretend his feelings for you – whatever they are – are smaller, less terrifying.

that was such a lovely imagery!! the way i actually pictured eddie getting home and grabbing a needle to stitch the gap back together 😭😭

He grins at you. "Thought I'd brave the great outdoors without any armour." You nod like it isn't all nonsense to you and maybe it isn't, maybe being friends with him is clueing you in to all his fantastical lingo. He likes you more for it either way, especially when you say, "You need a healing potion. It's freezing."”

and

“I know," you mumble ruefully. A tad theatric. He must be rubbing off on you.”

the fact that the way he speaks is starting to rub off on her!! being around each other for so long that they start picking up each other’s lingo and mannerisms!! having a shared language 🥺🥺🥺

eddie knowing her enough to realise that if he doesn’t make eye contact she won’t reject the cookie, paying enough attention to get these eating habits of hers – like subtly getting her to share a sandwich with him even if she wasn’t planning on having one at all, and she knows he knows it. making her a double cream oreo that she cherishes like a rich meal and being pleased with himself knowing that HE MADE HER so happy. and baby junie enjoying the cream-heavy side of her own cookie just like her mom was my last straw. i love them so much 😭

He shrugs and takes another pull of milk to think of a way to say, Well, when you’re tired you get nonsensical, and it’s charming how confident you are but hard to follow without offending you. Is there a way to say that without offending you? Or worse, without revealing every wretched feeling he has for you?

when she just starts rambling about cats meowing and being manipulators and eddie is just enchanted by how nonsensical and adorable it sounds!! the “and you’re still going!” literally filled me with so much joy. also

He doesn’t think there’s a way to tell you that won’t involve unveiling his new and shiny feelings for you, feelings that don’t seem to want to slow, or abate, or moderate themselves. Honestly, he doesn’t want them to. He wants you to be happy. He wants to take care of you. It's embarrassing in its intensity. 

i love that both of these shows how aware eddie is of his own feelings and all his worries are around showing it off too much. like he knows he’s already in love but it’s waiting for her to catch up

eddie poorly impersonating kermit the frog BUT using his own voice to say "She is… the smartest, most prettiest, loving little girl in the whole world." i- im in love with him and WITH YOU FOR WRITING HIM

also the “I’d only like her more if she was green!” and the “mr. Frog was my father” made me snort too. i don’t think I tell you enough how funny you are, jade dear. but you’re so funny!! i always catch myself holding back a laugh in the middle of the night when I’m reading your works!!

You are so brave, junebug. You're the bravest little girl I've ever met. That's why me and your mom decided you were Juniper the Brave, and you proved us both right." 

oh my god i was so distressed reading that part – which just shows what an amazing writer you are, honestly. i love having eddie always calling her “juniper, the brave” or “juniper, the loveliest”. it’s such a small thing but so in character for him and i love it so much. ALSO when he says “me and your mom” it sounds like he’s her parent 😭😭😭😭 you’re sick (ily) for writing it like that

“Do you think she'll throw up if I make her some dinner?" you ask, the kind of question you don't usually get to ask someone else. A luxury to defer judgement.

i really like both hers and eddies definition of luxury is ultimately having someone by their side. eddie defining having her to wash his hair as a luxury. her saying that having someone to choose something for her is a luxury

when she’s apologising to him saying that he “didn’t sign up for this” and all he does is look to baby junie and say something around “your mom has no idea how much i like you both” 😩😩😩😩 cause yeah he didn’t really sign up for any of this but caring about people doesn’t come with a full detailed contract right!! you just love them and would gladly go out of your way for them.

Junie doesn't cry so much as whine. You press kisses that are more for you than her into her hair and on her forehead, jogging your knee. She's fine. She's okay, and she's here in your lap, and there's nothing to panic over now. 

and

The relief to see her happy can't be understated. You hop in at the same time and clean her off, wash her hair, and bedeck her tiny features in big big kisses.

i honestly had to take a break and cry a little after reading that cause. junie is so loved. so so so loved!! 🥺🥺

"I think he likes me," you tell Junie. […] "He kissed me," you whisper, leaning down. "I don't know about you, junebug, but I only kiss the people I care about. For a long time, that's been a really short list." You bump your nose against hers. 

JUNIE BEING HER LITTLE CONFIDENT!! also, the “i think he likes me” makes her sound so young – but then again, it makes her sound just like her age. and the parallel between “I only kiss the people I care about” and “It’s the same, you know? Doing things for the people you care about.”!!! you’re sick i love you

He might be the nicest boy on this whole damn planet. You look at him thoughtfully. How come we always end up here? At the kitchen table? He looks right. Too right. He looks like he’s meant to be here, smiling and talking to your baby in hushed, fond tones, airplaning roasted broccoli towards her mouth. 

crying cause the kitchen table is something so personal. i always feel like the kitchen is like the heart of a house. and having her acknowledging how right it seems having eddie being part of their lives, like he’s meant to be in their kitchen table 😩😩😩 that was so lovely!!

“Yeah, you vex me. Infuriate me. I’ve been a mom for two years and I can’t get her shoes on without a fight, and you’ve been-“ You stop dead, stutter, and quickly adjust what you'd been saying like it has been a slip up of the tongue rather than a thought you shouldn't entertain. 

no cause this part went completely over my head on my first read and now i get it and AH. also i thought it was such a lovely acknowledgment and reassuring from eddie to say that she had no one to teach her how to be a parent, she had to learn all by herself and all he does is copy her

EDDIE CALLING THEM HIS TWO FAVOURITE GIRLS 😭😭😭 WANTING TO WEAR MATCHING SHIRTS 😭😭😭 you can’t do that 😭😭😭

You bring your hand to his cheek. A sorry and a thank you at the same time. "I don't want to be back in Hawkins before dark." I really want to spend more time with you. “I’ll crawl”

I’LL CRAWL. and he does!! i love him <3

You don't know what possesses you – though you're starting to wonder if it can be called possession at all, more like a hunger that won't let things lie – to do it, but you bring the cupcake up to his face and hold it so he can take a bite. 

that description, a hunger that won’t let things lie, oh my god. that was amazing. so good!! you’re insane!!

i was so sure that that ask i sent you right after part 1 was the longest I’ve ever sent you but this one is so much bigger i’m sorry </3 but i can’t help but point out every little lovely detail in your writing cause it honestly always strikes me with the warmest feeling of a soft and tender love. it’s something so honest and real, and it always stays with me. i keep going back to it and reminding myself of my favourite bits. your playlist for june baby is also keeping me company these last few days, I’ve been listening to it while doing some chores and it’s lovely. thank you for sharing your writing with us, i love it and i love you 💌 - lu (again, sorry for this long ask) <3

thank you lu for taking the time to compile the parts that you liked this is genuinely such a treat for me to read your commentary and see what you liked !!! please don't apologise ive already read this like three times beaming, you're too kind (as always) love you love you!! thank you for everything you do!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
