#im not saying bear didn't also have issues outside of his parenting

[urproblematicfav-arsonk]

ok so I just relistened to Alright(ep23) and I wanna talk about something that I don't think I've seen anyone else talk about even when the ep first came out.(but I'm antisocial so idk)

SO during The Doodler back story bit we find out that when Ron was being drowned it for some reason was invested in Ron's safety(probably because of Stud??)and I think I saw some people misinterpret this scene as The Doodler drowning Willy to protect Ron when in reality it was The Doodler waiting for Willy to kill Ron so it could drag him through the portal and send him away from Willy. Which is fucking wild. It also was then tethered to Willy against it's will because it was planning on being attached to Ron. And considering that Willy got a lot of his power from The Doodler, I have to think this relationship might've been non consensual?? The Doodler doesn't/didn't want Willy. It actively didn't like him and wanted to safe Ron in death. But Willy somehow managed to siphon off power from it and I don't think it would've wanted to give Willy any power or protection.

The point is someone should write an au where Ron goes to the forgotten realms instead of Willy and is a kid warlock with his chaos god best friend

Punch out headcanons take one

Sorry super punch fans, this is only wii/nes versions

Minor circuit

Glass Joe

Pretty good baker, can't make complex stuff without help though.

Actually retired once after the arcade/nes version of punch out, came back after Gabby jay retired, has had thoughts about it again but keeps remembering that his life would be dull without it. Also his score rested and he still got 99 loses (102 after the wii game)

Has trouble sleeping, uses weighted blankets to help.

Von Kaiser

Your meaning to tell me that dispite being 42 canon years old with some of the most out of pocket head canons ever im the only one that thought it would be funny for him to have a kid be the near opposite of him? Aka he is a dad.

Knows how to cook, doesn't often anymore but still knows

I believe he would like coconuts.no i won't elaborate.

Disco Kid

Likes all kinds of songs, not just disco. Still loves disco though.

Is a relative of kid quick, nobody knows what relation though.

I like the idea that he is friends with aran, i don't ship disco clover but its still a nice pairing we need more.

King Hippo

Can speak English but prefers grunts or noises.

Likes to explain his culture, specifically gifts and other stuff other find meaningless.

Also has a lot of tropical recipes he gives to everyone.

Major circuit

Piston Hondo

Still has that restaurant from the Wii live action ad.

Piston honda? Oh that's his twin.

Definitely has a manga collection. He also has 3 sets of everything. One for display one for reading and one for borrowing. He does not trust aran,soda, bear hugger, and king hippo with them at all.

Bear Hugger

Dad energy. He essentially went and adopted all the boxers with daddy issues, or parent issues in general.

Forced the WVBA to give maple (the bear) a seat in the crowd so she could watch the match, they had to make an entire separate area for her.

Has walked out in the snow with nothing but his overalls and shoes on. That gave everyone a scare forgetting he's used to the cold.

Great Tiger

Uses his clones to do/help with his chores. Once got beaten up by them (a reference of the century here folks)

Once his jewel was stolen and was found in a pawn shop selling for 3 dollars. He was mad at how low the price was then anything.

Once brought his tiger into the shared house, and it immediately broke the couch. The tiger is not allowed in the house anymore.

Don Flamenco

He and Carmen broke up after his first lost, got back together shortly after and forgot the whole issue.

Used bull fighters techniques on bald bull, he would have won if bald bull didn't right hook him into next sunday (literally)

Has tried multiple different types of hair growers, wigs, and more. He is still Balding.

World circuit

Aran Ryan

Actually got in the world circuit fair and square, not by cheating.

He started cheating after some idiot tried to stab him in the ring, good times from the WVBA!

I have a feeling he would say he likes to eat limes raw just to get on everyone's nerves.

Has also gotten confused with his Older brother, spo Aran Ryan, who promptly got a name change after aram started to cheat.

Soda Popinski

None of the boxer can drink his soda because its a legit health hazard to all of them.

Has no clue what the hell is going on 68% of the time.

Has actually used dry ice as a ice pack. This guy isn't human anymore.

Bald Bull

Hates don flamenco with a passion after the bull technique incident.

Is actually calm outside the ring, any public out brust is to get rid of potential paparazzi's (it doesn't work often)

Makes a pretty good calming tea.

Super Macho Man

Once had a horrible movie shoot that made him lose alot of viewer, proceeded to have an early mid life crisis and dye his hair gray.

After his loss with little mac he was more upset at the ladys chasing after little mac rather then him, rather then the sudden drop of viewers (which wasn't even a dent)

Probably had alot of talks about his boxer outfit, you know what im referring too.

Mr. Sandman

Dispite his name, he gets very little sleep. Not like glass joe but still.

He's so strong the WVBA actually has a ambulance on standby whenever he fights.

One time was put up against glass joe, actually laughed, realized it was serious, looked the referee in the eyes and said "if im put up against him ever again we'll need to find a new glass joe" and forfeited the game. Technically if joes score didn't reset it would now be 2-299.

What's one of your favorite childhood memories?

Hello, friend, good to see you, even if you do hide in the shadows. Hope you are well. <3

Let me tell you about a time I fell in love with storytelling all over again. I grew up on stories; I loved having my dad read to me when I was little (we read Narnia books, the Hobbit, the Lord of the Rings, Robin Hood, etc. I loved *all* of it). I loved the stories of found families and tight friendships like it was my bread and butter because I hadn't made any friends I could get closed to bc family moved around a lot (a decision I don't resent my family for now, but despised as a kid), and I wasn't really *that* close to my family either due to probably a variety of factors, not excluding mental health issues. I won't delve for the sake of length, you get the point. I was a sad and lonely child and my closest friends were imaginary. Anyway back to more concrete events:

We had just moved from Florida to Virginia, which is about 1000 miles away and over 13 hour drive (for context), and we had just started a new co-op (think like homeschool school, but it only met like once a week, it was one of the ways we'd start building up a new social circle or something). And one of the classes I took in was something music (more likely theater? related but that might have a different semester) and the first week of this co-op I remember they gave us a bingo card with a bunch of famous movie soundtracks and they told us we were going to identify the movie based on the song alone.

I got 2/20 or something bc I hadn't even heard of most of these movies bc i just hadn't been exposed to it. It was things like Batman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, maybe spongebob- pop culture stuff that I just hadn't seen. So everyone else was getting excited and I was feeling more and more out of the loop and alone.

I swear this turns happy at the end, bear with me, anon. They play the final music track and I don't recognize it at all but it fills me with such great joy and a call for a new adventure that I hadn't even realized music could do that before (we didn't listen to a lot of our own music growing up, it was mainly whatever my parents found appropriate or what my dad liked).

It was How To Train Your Dragon. Test Drive. John Powell. And then like the musical scores, they showed the scene it was from. A boy and his dragon racing, flying through the air. And I fell in love With the characters arcs per se, but I could tell there was a deep lore there and a story of friendship that I craved so much. It was also right up my alley with stories my Dad had read me so there was also that. But like the music was fantastic, I really liked the visuals at the time (i usually hate most 3D animation films, HTTYD is the exception), and I craved the story behind it.

I saved up money from Birthday and Christmas and ended up buying it. And I watched it. And I fell in love even harder. Cause, in some sense, I related to hiccup too much. I was a creative person, like he was, I had very little friends like he did at the beginning, we had similar senses of humor at some points, and he was fascinated with knowing and learning things. And he had a big dragon friend and i again craved that friendship deeply. So he added to the crew of imaginary friends and I went on many imaginary adventures with Hiccup and Toothless and told myself so many stories that I wish I could remember now for writing inspo.

I ended up moving from Virginia to middle of nowhere Midwest US (not saying where in case the Fey Find Out), and I did end up meeting my IRL Toothless. A little bit scary on the outside at firsts, but with an actual heart of a silly, goofy, dragon. (brb, im getting emotional just thinking about it. It'd be about 7 years now? Coming up? I may be bad at math. I feel old and happy and content.)

So yeh, in short it was a very much right place, right time kind of story and film. I still watch it a lot whenever I need a comfort film that's not as long as LOTR or something. I love the soundtrack and all of the things about it. Sorry, this was probably way longer than it should've been but IDK how to describe my love for this story without giving you some context.

I really hope this isn't too personal if so feel free not to answer but did you always know you wanted children? When I was a little kid and even until my early teens I always knew I wanted to be a mother, but when I got to be like 15-16 I would follow a lot of mother or pregnancy things on instagram (I know I was a weird kid) I know it probably wasn't their intention but a lot of the mothers made it seem like they wished they didn't have a kid or their whole life was over or ruined and the father even when they were married like barely helped? Like what the hell it's his kid too?? Or they just lost their entire personality and hobbies and became only a mom when their child was born I started doubting if I would be a mother my biggest fear is that I will regret a child not for my sake but for theirs they would deserve a mother who loves them. I worked at a daycare and felt horrible for the neglected infants and always gave them special care I loved them like if they were mine so I thought surely if I had a child I would love them instantly but I know it's a lot different. I thought maybe if I have 1 and don't like it I'll just stop but I also don't want to just experiment with someone's life, I don't dislike children I just have an issue with certain age groups like 5-11 I never know what to say to them.😭😭 Like I'm not sure if I feel like I'm personally not suited for parenting or if its just my lifestyle, like obviously I like anime and videogames I'm pretty vulgar and dress...out of the ordinary, I like weed and shrooms (Sometimes y'all shrooms are a lot be careful with that shit)basically I'm a radical leftist 😭People always say make sure you're ready but like how can I know 100% that I'm going to be a good and loving mom, if I'm not sure should I just not do it?? Here I am 19 having a crisis about being a good mom to my nonexistent children 🤦🏾‍♀️ Anyway sorry for dumping this on you, At least it's nice to know not everyone has to fit into this pure definition of having no hobbies outside your kids and being like a pure Christian mom or something.

okay lovely, first off HI and THANK YOU! it’s so so sweet that you’re thinking about it so much, im sure if or when you decide to become a mother, you’re gonna be great ♥️

when i was in school all I wanted was to be a mum! i wanted to be a sahm (stay at home mum) and look after the house and cook meals and bath my kids and read them bedtime stories and play lego and ponies and Pokémon!!! but that changed when i hit like… 15? let me preface this with: I am a very selfish person a lot of the time. I’m an only child. I’m bad at sharing, I’m a brat, I need alone time… but having children just changes you.

yeah at times it can feel like you lose your identity, but… if I didn’t tell you I have kids, would you have known? there are moments when it’s a LOT and sometimes the thought might cross your mind that “I shouldn’t have done this” but when I tell you the LOVE I have for these little humans is the strongest emotion I’ve ever felt, I’m not exaggerating. I would fight a BEAR for my kids. I’d run out in front of a car!

you’re only 19, my love! i work at a kindy right now, and I totally understand your need to shower those poor neglected babies with love; and it’s so great that you did that.

I could probably talk about this all day, so if you have any questions that you want me to elaborate on, you can dm me or find me on discord!!

TLDR having kids is definitely life-altering, but you don’t need to be super mum to be a mum, and you don’t have to change who you are to become some weirdly proactive Instagram mum ✨
