#normally ly oak swallows Garcia li Wilson swift Marlowe the unworthy

[mintythyme]

I think the Oaks should be inhuman. I want some eldritch fucking hippies.

I want to see Normal keep practicing his cheers a little too long, stamina still up in the sky when everyone around him is exhausted, not even sweating, when he’s been going for hours without a break. I want to see Hero be shown to not blink, or to not breathe like humans should. I want to see Lark have such mastery over his weapons that they seem to be a part of him, and when you look too close, it doesn’t just seem like his weapons are a part of him. I want to see Sparrow be a little too still at times, when listening to something, or when paying attention, not making even the slightest of sounds, not even a heartbeat. I wanted to see Henry smell, not just badly, but like a burning pain that shouldn’t be familiar but is. I wanted to see Barry twist and move in ways he shouldn’t, cracking and popping a few too many times, comfortable in positions he shouldn’t even be able to achieve.

GIVE ME SOME NON HUMAN OAKS GOD FUCKING DAMMIT

coping with the new episode

[pleeborp]

Willy:shut up, brat!

Lincoln:GIVE YOUR ELDERS SOME RESPECT YOUNG MAN

——————

Scary: you don’t know what I’ve been through

Lincoln: did you survive the titanic tho?

———————-

Lincoln: kids these days, man

Normal: YOURE STILL OUR AGE

It's been too long since I've drawn the teens + Hermie.

[hail-to-the-scrale]

There's something about Normal wanting to be wanted and cared about, and his subclass being about being supportive and helpful by healing and buffing allies, or messing with the enemy so that his friends can beat them down in combination with the fact he's constantly left behind while his friends do cool shit.

Taylor and Linc being more aggressively oriented support classes, wind having great synergy (especially when Anthony bends or breaks the rules for them) and get to do a ton of cool stuff together, no help needed other than each other.

And Scary, being objectively the most powerful, can do badass shit on her own, only really needing emotion support, which she's constantly fighting against or ignoring (and I get why. I've been there.)

Episode 37 would've been his chance to shine, to be the Hero. He could've brought back Terry Jr.

But he didn't have what he needed.

So he wasn't anything beyond normal.

dndads as backstreet boys because i’m back on my vintage boy band bullshit:

as long as you love me is normal enlisting taylor, link, and a very reluctant scary to help win hermie back with a song. taylor goes overboard on the backup vocals. scary is stepping and snapping with a completely dead face.

i want it that way is taylor singing to hero with link, normal, and hermie on backup. scary is beside hero, recording the whole thing in order to embarrass taylor later. normal knows hero does not like taylor and is enjoying forcing his sister to sit through this performance. taylor is utterly oblivious, and again going overboard on the vocals.

extra: glenn and morgan danced to an old record of good vibrations by the beach boys in their living room after finding out morgan was pregnant

[mintythyme]

The Oaks Are Alone

Hildy- Literally in a different fuckijg world

Barry- half-elf, moms from a literal different fucking world, contains a eldritch god giving him a god complex

Henry- least chill person in entire community, then become the guy with amnesia who had no nostalgia for anything in a time when that shit was everywhere, then become the dads who’s kids fucking ended the world, and then the dad left alone just because he was too scared of his own father and kids but mostly himself

Sparrow and Lark- I know what you’re saying. “Minty, how are they alone, that’s have each other” BULLSHIT. You can be alone with other people it’s a plaguing state of mind. These codependent fuckos have been isolated just from day one. Twins, so they’re one unit, and then the doodler thing, and then the prophecy, on top of all the being cravers of violence and life and excitement that everyone else seems to find draining and painful

Hero- you’re gonna tell me that being a magically destined child, ‘sent to save the world’ isn’t a lot for a kid? Isn’t enough to make forming new relationships with people who do. Or even don’t know that? You’re gonna tell me that she has a healthy social life being the chosen one who had to murder a deer at 5am last night in the woods and taste it’s blood so she could track it made her good at making friends with the new kid?

Normal- somehow the odd one out in a group of three, four, and especially in five. The fucking teens have three odd ones out and two of them don’t like this (and now unfortunately don’t like each other or themselves) but can’t change it. Isolated for being a mascot, a figure that stands alone, there’s only one mascot. Isolated for being too loud, for being too blunt, for being too stupid. Isolated for being stupid enough to be himself. That’s always their first mistake. Sometimes the last, too.

TL;DR

These fuckers never feel like anyone can relate to them properly even if somebody can *cough cough* the twins *cough cough*

[mintythyme]

Oakworthy won but at what cost.

[mintythyme]

DNDADS SHIPPERS I HAVE AN IDEA.

May I pitch to you: scary/normal/hermie poly. With scary and hermie doing scenes and normal cheering them on.

I’m calling it the performers and the audience. That is all, good night everybody.

[mintythyme]

SPOILERS FOR EP 46 OF DNDADS

I like to think the recent events make specifically Normal a widow. I think he should also dress like a widow, it would be very funny to me

[mintythyme]

If Taylor and Normal actually fought, like if Normal fought with his whole chest, Taylor would be FUCKED. My man would die instantly, no questions asked. He’d fucking wither away.
