For Any Anthro-Lovers in the Audience Tonight...
While most of my fanbase on Tumblr prefers anime bois (partially because that's the fanbase I've primarily worked to foster here), I know that - like me - there are some folks here who like more "furry-friendly" characters: anthros, ferals, and the like. And, since I also know a decent portion of my fanbase likes superheroes, figured I'd talk a bit about a show I recently rediscovered.
"Loonatics Unleashed" was a TV series made in the early 2000s. It was an (ill-advised, or at least not-perfectly-executed) attempt to bring the Looney Tunes characters into the "young and marketable TMNT-esque superhero" genre. The show focuses on a team of six anthro superheroes, all based on classic Looney Tunes characters (although they aren't the original characters themselves; similar to TW's cast that way). They go through the usual rounds of fighting monsters and supervillains and so on in a futuristic city, in-between bouts of slapstick shenanigans.
The show was not received well in its time (and it's pretty obvious why, to be quite honest), but it did and still does have a small but loyal fanbase. I remember liking the series as a kid, and I've recently been on a Looney Tunes kick (largely in light of this being the 100th Anniversary of WB, as well as Disney), and decided to revisit a few episodes.
Without going fully into my feelings about the show as a whole (which are...somewhat complicated), or the episodes I saw, I do want to say...I legitimately want to write a few stories in this universe, with these characters. More specifically, I think it would be fun to write for Slam (based on Taz) and the duo of Tech and Rev (based on Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner). The latter two I actually genuinely think are a REALLY fun pair: they're by far my favorite characters in the show. I ship them like you wouldn't believe, and I think a story or two focused on their relationship (with some voraciousness or hints at it included) could be a lot of fun.
As for Slam...he's basically superhero Taz, and why THAT appeals to me should go without saying. It helps that both the Coyote and the Tasmanian Devil are two (admittedly fairly minor) crushes of mine, and I've actually wanted to write for them both for a while. This seems like a fun universe to try out with.
I have a couple of ideas floating around in my noggin, but I'm always open to more. So if anybody has suggestions, let me know. :)

I'm curious if we see Seb at ROC with even longer hair or if he's like "New year, new haircut xoxo"

actually, i did want to ask you all - a commonly shared sentiment about character creators in games or dressup games online is there's very frequently a lack of black hairstyles.
so it made me curious - what are some black hairstyles you wish would be included more in character creators/dressup games? or ones you get really happy to see are included?

"The bigots up top think we're ALL fucked up! They want us ALL dead!" Hey that's cool dude you're right! Now are you saying this as a genuine expression of solidarity and community, or do you only bring this point up when the acknowledgement of intersectionality makes you uncomfortable? Is it a rallying cry, or a way to shut down people affected by intercommunity bigotry?

Tbh? I don't like Paul. I don't want Paul. I understand that Paul serves an important narrative function and that Paul is the best possible ending for Camilla and Palamedes given their situation, personalities, and relationship. However what I really want is for Camilla and Palamedes to attend the ATN wedding as two individual humans and for Pal to be a lightweight who loses his tie in the garden fountain after three drinks and for Camilla to do exactly one shot with the group, keep Gideon from ripping the sleeves off her dress shirt, and absolutely kill it at lawn games during cocktail hour. Since this scenario is a wild tonal mismatch for the series and also Palamedes was already dead, this was unlikely to ever happen. However Paul is the final nail in the coffin for the theoretical existence of this scene and I can't help but resent them for that
