it is interesting how in a lot of childrens media that portrays abuse, it is almost never by the biological parents but some other, more removed adults. a few examples off the top of my head are a series of unfortunate events, james and the giant peach, cinderella, h*rry p*tt*r (hp stans go away, this post aint for you, jk rowling can suck my trans dick), and more. its always wicked aunts and uncles, evil step mother and step sisters, adopted family, etc. but never the birth parents. idk i find the trend in portrayal interesting is all considering in real life it is more often than not the birth parents hands by which a child experiences abuse from

ISEKAI'D PLAYMATE
Inspired by Candy Candy and Ponyo
These two chaotic Goobers are back

Random rambling below ⬇️
My mother loved the anime Candy Candy back when I was a little, so almost all my outfits were based on the show.
When I saw kids wearing jeans for the first time, I was "Woah! Mini grown-ups!?"

MY FAVORITE SCENE!
HERE WE GO.
Also, shoutout to @supermary64. All the screenshots below are from the clips they’ve posted.
At the beginning of the scene Luigi is being dragged along by his bound wrists. He is captured by strange masked creatures that clearly think very little of him, kicking him in the calves to keep him moving toward a hot air balloon, which takes off into the sky for an unknown destination.
Looking down at the landscape below, Luigi spots an old stone castle, and his expression shifts as he reflects on a better time...
… A time where he was a little kid, building a wood-block castle on the playground, and look at that castle. Luigi is a savant! At that age (which I guess is somewhere between three and five???) he probably spent a good deal of time slowly constructing the thing, carefully and quietly putting effort into every detail. Look at his face! he is completely focused and in the zone. Just one final touch needed… a flag on top…
Then along comes this little shit.
He is aggressive right off the bat, stealing Luigi’s flag and blowing raspberries, testing his limits of how much he can intimidate this smaller, far more timid kid.
In the reflection of the sunglasses you can see Luigi backing down, fearful, hand held out in self defense. He is completely noncombative, and bracing himself for the worst.
Luigi shields his face as his castle is kicked down. He falls over backwards as the instigator laughs at him, twirling the stolen flag in his hand.
On cue, in comes Mario, jumping on top of his brother’s bully, leaping over him to place himself at Luigi’s side.
Mario puts himself between him and the attacker, breathing heavily, gearing up for a fight as he hands the retrieved flag over to his little brother, not taking his eyes off the threat, not an ounce of fear in his expression despite the fact that the he is up against what looks to be an older, bigger child.
Luckily, the bully was hoping for an easy target. Spitting out a block he runs off without looking back.
Mario turns and smiles at his brother, looking very proud of himself. Luigi, after a moment of shy consideration, smiles back. Despite having had his meticulously-constructed castle destroyed, the loss of his creation doesn’t compare to the sense of relief and safety he feels knowing his brother is there, and has his back.
Then the flashback ends, and Luigi is alone.
I think this memory is simply a culmination of how much Luigi is straight up missing his brother. Ever since they were kids he has followed Mario everywhere, even into danger and uncertainty… fearful as always, yet maintaining a sureness that he would be alright so long as his big brother took the lead.
“Nothing can hurt us as long as we’re together”… but they aren’t together anymore. For the first time for as long as he can remember, Luigi is completely and utterly alone.
Luigi looks at his bound wrists and considers the situation. He doesn’t know what’s happening or where he’s going, he only knows this world he landed in is aggressive, unforgiving, and dead set against him. Never before has the future looked so bleak.
Luigi settles back into place, looking dead ahead with a look– sad and thoughtful, like he is recalling his final moments with Mario, and wondering what he would’ve said if he had known there was a chance they were never going to see each other again.

Things I (want to) Think Will Happen In The Mario Bros. Movie
Post credits sequel hook with either Wario, Waluigi, Rosalina or Daisy (or maybe the Koopalings? Are they in it or not?)
The credits song is a modern remix of Do The Mario
Deconstruction/self awareness of Peach’s whole damsel in distress thing
Bowser gets a heavy metal villain song bc Jack Black basically said so so now I will not know peace until I get it
Relatable depressed-at-their-9-to-5 Mario and Luigi get isekeied into the Mushroom Kingdom (tbh this works give it to me now)
“It’s a-me, Mario” is like Avengers Assemble and is used only once during the climax with a completely straight face and no accent
Mario and Peach will probably kiss (and if they do my inner eight year old who was way too invested in them for no reason will scream)
edit: please also give me Jack black saying “MARIO HOW DARE YOU DISTURB MY FAMILY VACATION”
