“Well this is awkward…” (can either be main verse or Star of Christmas up to you!)

Victoria Darcy glowered at the redheaded reporter. She pursed her lips and fluffed her own hair, trying to seem more put together than she actually was, given the morning she had.

"Oh, Daffy, isn't it?" She said, pretending she didn't full-well know Daphne Woodbridge, the pretty, doe-eyed reporter for the London Gazette. "I expect it would be awkward to you - seems everything comes awkwardly to you, really. Don't tell me you came sniffing around this burnt out theater for a story? Wasn't it enough of a disaster without your help?"

"Don't you listen?"

"Y'all hear sumn?"

[andimlarrythecucumber]

“Don’t you dare.”

“I wasn’t even doing anything!” Larry lied.

"You look lost."

"Mind yer fuckin Ps&Qs, I ain't lost, you're lost!" Mr. Pincher grumpily responded as he tried to figure out where the fuck he was.

“Those things you said yesterday… Did you mean them?” (from Daphne)

"Well, of course! I think Easter's a far more exciting holiday than Christmas anyway. I could care less about the church Christmas pageant when I have work to do. Bills don't take a holiday, Miss Daphne, why should I or my workers?"

“What are you waiting for? What do you stall for?”

What was he waiting for? What did he stall for? If he stood for nothing, what would he fall for? But he knew the truth. He knew why he waited and why he stalled. He couldn't let anyone in - let them know the truth. He was... built different so to say. Nobody could understand that. Not even sweet, sweet Petunia with the beautiful hair that would look even lovelier as a rug.

"Well, I suppose," he cleared his throat, "My... history is... quite complicated. That's all."

“Where’d you get that juice box and does it come in grapalicious?”

"Beat up a kid for it. I don't even drink juice, I just... felt like it." Audrey said, shrugging casually. She glanced at the side of the box. "It comes in Melontastic, RedDye900, SugrBerry, and Punchables - that's this one. Maybe they discontinued the grapalicious." She added, "I don't know, maybe I'll try it. I don't get sustenance from it, and I uh, I don't think I got a digestive system but... what the hell else do I do? Display it?"

‘ you don’t have to call anymore. i won’t pick up the phone. ’ (from petunia)

Peter looked hurt. His eyebrows knitted together, and he hesitated before he said, "I... I was too forward, wasn't I? I... I thought we were getting along so well. The escape rooms, the silly Buzzfeed quizzes about 'if you were kidnapped by One Direction what would YOU do?', but..." he looked down, clearly embarrassed. He shifted his sunglasses to cover his eyes. "I understand, I... I clearly projected my... feelings of friendship onto you. You didn't feel the same way. I'm so stupid."

[pa-goffik-grape]

"hold on just a goddamn second. one step at a time." (to seymour from daphne)

"What? Hey, watch the fuckin' language, I got kids around here! Somewhere. Fully grown kids, but I digress. Now what's the matter?"

[goliaththegiantpickle]

“Did you do this on purpose?!” (to Jabez from Daphne)

Goliath looked down at the reporter, and then to her plate. "I... I might've misheard your order." He said, making his best guess. "Did you not want the boiled eel?"

[madame-blueberry]

“did they hurt you?”

“Non. But they might if we don’t move quick.”

[vicki-cucumber]

Maybe @sweet-sweet-petunia has @andimlarrythecucumber wrapped around her invisible finger, but I think Rhubarbs and Cucumbers are just way too different of flavor profiles to be mixing in the same dish if you know what I mean.

"Can we talk?" (from Petunia I hit ask limit over there oops)

"Of course!" Larry grinned, "I can always talk to my favorite girl! Um, don't tell my mom I said that," He chuckled slightly before continuing on, "What's up?"

In Tiny Toons Looniversity, Lola Bunny was never intended to be the Acme Looniversity chef at first. According to Ben Siemon, the writer of the episode, “Soufflé Girl Hey”, the show initially planned to have Pepé Le Pew as the chef. This was likely during the development phase and Dave Alverez. They gave him a bio where he now has respect towards women and puts his passion and love towards food instead. He said the idea was turned down because “too much baggage” (probably due to WB’s response of his controversy) and Lola Bunny replaced him. Keep in mind that this was written in 2021 around a time when Space Jam: A New Legacy was huge for the company.

Wow!! Can I please have a link to where you found this info? it'd be really useful! Thanks for letting me know. Reading this, as much as I love Pepe, I think it's better Lola's the chef than him if he was gonna be reintroduced with a (imo, tired) disclaimer. Makes me sad though that Lola's once again not being written in deliberation, it reinforces her whole issue of not rly bein a Tune... just kinda put in stuff n not really considering her character in these decisions (bc well.... she doesn't originally have one. At least, not an authentic one. Looney Tune-y one....)

‘ it’s hard not to find it all a little bittersweet. ’ (from petunia)

Nezzer nodded solemnly. "I know," he said, his voice purely exhausted, raspy. He looked tired, dead on his feet, like he hadn't slept in days. The stress had kept him awake at night, his thoughts racing until the sun cued his time to wake before the alarm had a chance to sing. "But that's just the way it goes. When you have a snowstorm like this... usually all the milk and dark chocolate chips go first. Bittersweet isn't bad though. I think we can make do! It'll be more refined that way. Also, this is like, our third batch of cookies. I'm exhausted. Do you think we were woefully unprepared to go into this cookie-making business together? Were we too impulsive?"
