#dandy's doodles#inanimate insanity#ii#ii baseball#ii nickel#ii balloon#ii suitcase#ii clover#ii mephone#ii cabby#purim#objectober#objectober 2024#fitting for me to reference the other costume holiday no? :)#seriously the armless alliance fits very well into the purim characters#suitcase does fit better than clover as esther but i feel like clover would be more likely to get that role in a play. y'know?#but yeah. baseball as achashverosh... the leader who's passive and ineffectual though well-meaning; always relies on his second-in-command#then nickel as haman. the second-in-command who puts all his energy into hating people and guides the leader into enforcing that hatred#balloon as mordechai... the guy the king's second-in-command despises (though here it's for different reasons)#and for esther... someone half in the party of people nickel/haman would hate and half in the party of people he'd like#who recognizes the way he's cruel and screwed up and eventually points it out#suitcase works better as i've said. cuz she's actively pissed at nickel and causes him to experience some punishment for what he does#while clover more gently tells him to change#for vashti... suitcase can work for her yeah. part of the group but excommunicated for disobeying#if i'd pick someone else i'd do soap i think? but i'm not sure#anyway i'm really not escaping the symbolist allegations... adapting mythological/biblical imagery for art......#it's fun though! and in this case it can be silly too
