Maximus is so fun as a character to me for two reasons:
He's a slave to his most selfish desires at his core, and that selfishness allows him to do cold, evil, ruthless things over and over again. And that's not something that he becomes and it's not some crazy plot twist that gets revealed to us, as though his normal personality is a veil. His personality is genuine, it's just driven by the deeper motives that get more revealed throughout the show. And then you start to reinterpret all of his other actions in a different light and go oh.
This set of character traits gives him the funniest ability to repeatedly be like "I will kill people, I will commit violence, because I have strooong values/opinions related to this!" and then somebody gives him some friendly company or, like, a bathrobe. And he's like "ohh :) Nevermind, I would trust you with my life if it meant I could have more of this. Would you like my social security number."

I have not gotten over the fact Bloodmoon apparently took the licensing test??? I don’t know how many licensing tests there are so I might be wrong in this assumption, but I take it as they took the driver’s license test
so of course I had to draw something about it, enjoy this silly drawing of a not-silly-at-all AU of mine

A really funny Bowser fic would be that Bowser just tries to marry the first human he sees. We think he's only after Peach because we're in the Peach universe, and she's the first human he's ever seen and was like "okay I HAVE to marry that!"
But that's his response to the first human he sees, period.
Believe it or not, he's doing better in the Mario universe than the Peach universe. Bowser's worst luck is in the Daisy universe.
He's married in the Luigi universe.
(Luigi is the only one who getting kidnapped and serenaded with the cringiest love song ever would work on - there's literally never even a second kidnapping he just assumed it was a surprise date and that's how koopas show interest)
(Mario punches Bowser and rescues himself. He's flattered, but the song was too much)
(Daisy also punches Bowser but harder, and then she kidnaps him back in retaliation)

"You know what I saw? A weird fucked up family, kind of like us. I would do anything to protect any one of you at the expense of others. I have. I have killed for you all. We all have."
"Which is precisely why... we are just like them. Which is not why they should exist, honestly."
-Critical Role Campaign 3, Episode 102, "Reconciliation"
