The funniest tags to see are stuff like "how is this account still going" because the answer is consistently I Don't Know !! Ever since covid benson has just become part of my routine and will probably remain a part of my routine for a while to come

Heheheheh so as someone who has literally dissected the "Fawful scene" from PIT I have some questions relating your AU 👁️👁️
What would happen if Fawful were to find out the babies' identities? How would he react, and what would he do as a result?
Also what would happen if the adult Mario and Luigi were to stumble across Fawful caring for the babies?
Have a great day! 🔥
Hiiiii, thank you so much for reaching out. I'm glad you broke the Fawful scene in PIT to pieces to see what it's all about. I'll be happy to answer your questions.
Alright, so with the AU, there's the ever mounting tension of the babies' identifies and vice versa. The babies do all kinds of deception to fool everyone. Why did they bother with Fawful in the first place? It was since Fawful is one of the most interesting people they've met, he makes inventive and G R E A T food, he's always working on an interesting gadget, he teaches the babies skills like budgeting, sales and tax fraud, he's working on evil schemes that the babies want to uncover, and he cares for them. Fawful is basically like the new weird kid in school who is full of mystery.
Fawful, meanwhile, would fret about the Mario Bros. hurting the babies and tells them to be watchful. The babies know that Fawful's fears are unfounded for them since the adults are their caretakers and they trust the adults more than they do Fawful. But, for their safety, they let Fawful ramble on and provide them weapons to protect themselves against the Bros. Fawful is also more than happy to upgrade their hammers.
If they succeed, I would plan for Fawful to find out at the very end when the babies give him a drawing of their family (they hop into a Time Hole soon after). Fawful is overcome with happiness seeing himself drawn among the babies, but then he opens the rest of the drawing and sees the Mario Bros. Immediately he panics that the Mario Bros. were gathering information on him when he was at his lowest. He would scream into the nether that the Mario Bros. wanted taunt him and see him suffer. As such, he adds extra details in his scheming where he'll have Bowser inhale the Adult Bros. as payback.
If Fawful found out sooner, he would be heart-broken. Probably couldn't bear to look at the babies for the rest of the day. But, it would dawn on him that the babies aren't the same adults that ruined his life.* As such, Fawful asks the babies to not kill him in the future. Maybe he might consider taking the babies in as toadies (as Cackletta did for him) so that he could get rid of the biggest wrench in his plans for conquest.
*(to be fair, Fawful was a terrorist, and Mario and Luigi were defending the Beanbean Kingdom; Fawful ruined his own life but refuses to take accountability for that).
The Mario Bros. ,ooooooh boy would they be M A D! The only context they know Fawful in is him causing terror over and over. Being protective, they would assume that Fawful was taking advantage of the babies like using them as pawns in an evil scheme or to get information about the Mario Bros. They would first see Fawful being near the children and get in between them. Then they would threaten Fawful and demand to know his intentions.
A fight would ensue with the babies trying to stop it.
Then the Mario Bros. would think on it seeing that Fawful is just as terrified as they are for the babies' safety. What tips them off is that Fawful is more concerned about the babies' needs and how scared they are rather than his wants and all that evil lair was spotted too soon.
It's already worrisome that he's living in the sewers. They would see Fawful spiraling and feel that he isn't in the best state to care for both children's needs. (They fear that the babies would see things that would traumatize them like Fawful's violent mental breakdowns or the babies being forced to act as Fawful's caretakers). After a while, they would get concerned for Fawful's mental health and try to get mental health services in and better housing (since rearranging your whole life to spite someone at the cost of your health and wellbeing isn't healthy, neither would be making two children be responsible for your mental health - Fawful hasn't done that second part, but the Bros. fear he will eventually). All the while, they would explain to the Baby Bros. how complicated brains are and that sometimes mental illnesses happen. It doesn't mean someone is incompetent or doesn't deserve to live, but that they may need help (just like how if someone breaks an arm, they get help to heal the arm. If someone is struggling with mental health, then society should provide help to heal the brain).
If the three were to meet, a third party would need to intervene. Maybe Princess Peach given that she is level-headed and wants a full picture of the situation (since she would see that Fawful does care for the babies and that the Mario Bros. have every right to be weary of Fawful).
There's one thing for sure: the babies have A-LOT of explaining to do.
I hope you have a great day as well. @federthenotsogreat

It’s kind of hilarious that my little sister (11 y/o) watched LOTR for the first time today and her favorite character is Sméagol. Like, favorite-favorite cry if they die happy anytime their on-screen kill anyone who hurts them kind of favorite. Literally NO-ONE expected it but looking back it’s kind of obvious. When my stepdad said it’s cuz they’re alike personality wise (which, tbh kinda true) she was very happy and proud by the comparison.
She is buying a Sméagol plushie now (to keep the Demogorgon plush company)
