pib and pinocchio being best friends and pib ALSO being the cat from pinocchio's story (ie. he tries to rob pinocchio, gets his paw bitten off by pinocchio and subsequently attempts to hang him) is wild and has potential that i can't hammer down but. there's definitely something there

#pib appears to lack his trickster memories and pinoch obviously doesn't know either but. it definitely happened #IIRC the cat (and fox) being in pinoch's story gets mentioned in pib's segment of once upon a time AND pinoch's segment of origins(?)#also really fun thinking about the logistics of how this would work ie. pinoch's cat and pib existing supposedly simultaneously #like possibly the tricksters existing outside the bounds of time? time travel-esque shit so multiple trickster stories can occur at the same #time in the same version of the neverafter?#changing appearances between stories? literal change of appearance? sometimes or all the time? a kind of inherent cloaking magic?#or do they just take the chance that 99% of people aren't going to assume 2 critters in different places aren't The Exact Same Guy #oouf tags. this was prompted by me looking at the adventures of pinocchio wikipedia again and thinking wow! that's crazy!#dimension 20 #neverafter #pinocchio neverafter #pib neverafter #scal txt
