An unpopular character that you actually like and why 👀

HMM! I honestly don't dislike any particular character, but I'd have to say Sugar. She's funny, I love her dynamic with Ella, and I could fix her (writing-wise) generally. She is very endearing and entertaining to me, a man who has seen pahkitew more than a normal person has

What's your favorite episode in each season of TD? 👀

OHH THIS IS HARD

for TDi, I dont know if it counts, but TDDDDI is prbably my favorite. Really great character moments and pairings as well as more insight into certain characters. Lindsay Beth Ezekiel trio I love youu

TDA is harder for me. Idk, I like the ones with Gwen. LOL

TDWT. Greece's Pieces. No question. My favorite episode in the entire show, I got no idea why, but I love it so much.

TDROTI, I think Ice Ice Baby. I dont have strong opinions on the episodes tbh though.

TDAS is exempt from this cause I dont remember an episode I liked.

For the reboot uh, both episodes where Scary Girl gets eiminated weirdly.

tylers great cause he'll just randomly come out with some of the best lines. we're gonna bring the dinner to the table and then we're gonna EAT IT

Any Gwuncan headcanon?? 💙💚

I gotchu!

First for the Sexuality hcs, cause I love doing those -- gwen is bisexual, but like, only realizes it in her 20s typa gal. Her first girl crush was heather change my mind Like she ended up heavily repressed with her being defined by her relationships with guys in show & Total Drama messes you up in general LOL. Now duncan. Duncan is straight to me. But he can have weirdly homoerotic friendships/rivalries with men, as a treat. (also 20 dollars is 20 dollars). Despite what anyone would say I think he would actually be pretty supportive! They trust each other i think :)

Also I think that theyd end up becoming very private people regarding their relationship, like especially after WT the harrassment in universe would probably be INSANE especially due to gwen already being disliked for TDA. Every few months theyd share a selfie or something but otherwise; the in universe gwuncaninators have to live off of CRUMBS. Despite that though, they dont hate PDA - clearly seen in ROTI Episode 1 as well but I feel like itd be more subtle than st8 up making out like bridgeoff LMFAO. Duncan said it was corny (he loves it)

They call each other posers & lame/insulting nicknames (essentially canon w pasty LOLOL) just for fun. Its their love language.

Im not that much of a hcer but hope this was satisfactory!!

Hi~ What's your favorite line or joke in Total Drama?

Hmm honestly this is really hard for me- because there are SO many good ones. I guess I'll go by season (first 3 though, haah)

TDI 's lines arent particularly that memorable, its probably the least funny of the OG three, BUT despite that I'm a big fan of this just, moment in particular

Heathers reactions always get me and I fucking love the Owen simping for Justin running gag, no matter how of its time it is.

Honorable mention to this moment

TDA is really hard because there is so many comedic moments and lines I love quoting, despite it being my least watched season. Yes, including pahkitew

"I'm surrounded by loons!" "Where?" "Oh I love ducks!" is so good, and Izzy being a straight man? peak.

And for World Tour, ANY Tyler moment but 100% "Make a mental note of that, bro." "I don't have a pen."

this is the funniest fuckin change to me. they used to try and KILL each other

New rule for making anti-Gwuncan posts:

Actually rewatch the show and don't just go based off of memory or personal headcanon

(Failed 100% of the time)

you know what i love the most about interpersonal relationships? the fact that you get ideas like "what would total drama ™ would look like if it was created by vivziepop™?"

As a young tomboy who was so insecure as to “why couldn’t I be feminine like the other women around me? Is there something wrong with me for not liking makeup or being GNC?”, seeing Jo helped me so fucking much with embracing my gender nonconformity as a girl. And seeing another woman who struggled with hard internalized misogyny and hated being told she looked like a man or was a man because of how she looked, it really made me feel seen and helped me get over my own insecurities. I was struggling so bad for a while that I thought because I wasn’t girly or feminine that that must’ve been I was a boy this whole time. And then just seeing Jo and how butchy and tomboyish she was allowed to be while still having body issues and struggling to fit in with the women around her really helped me so damn much to get over my own insecurities, and I feel so much fucking better just calling myself a tomboy and allowing myself to “look like a man” without that making me one. And it made me feel so much more comfortable wearing clothes that made me feel more comfortable, which happened to masculine, because there’s no way a woman is supposed to dress. And if I don’t want to wear dresses or skirts or wear makeup, that didn’t make me a man. Jo was a really really important character for me to see growing up as a young tomboy, and she’s still important to me even if that sounds dumb.

This is just to me but seeing anyone call her a trans man or transcoded seems like such a kick in the ass and misses the entire point of her character. She’s a masculine woman who’s insecure about the fact that she’s not feminine. She doesn’t want to be feminine but she does want to feel pretty because so many woman are conditioned to think that male validation is the end all be all. That scene where she put on the makeup in ep6 was suchhh a thing. And her insecurities over having body hair (and probably facial hair too) was so fucking relatable to see. She was a tomboy in a cast full of girls who were all feminine and she resents other women for being feminine because she’s projecting her own insecurities onto the women around her. Jo has terrible internalized misogyny. And seeing anyone say that’s gender dysphoria or that she’s transcoded because of it is sooo… it seems like it’s in poor taste. “Tomboy in denial phase” leave such a bad taste in my mouth. The way she does or does not want to dress doesn’t make her any less or a girl or any more of one. The doesn’t want to be misgendered by Lightning because it makes her insecurities about her femininity and how she looks so much worse. Nobody needs to be reminded she’s a girl BECAUSE IT SHOULD BE OBVIOUS SHE IS ONE. If anything, if she were a trans boy, wouldn’t that be validating all her misogyny? She’d go from a girl struggling with beauty standards and her femininity to just another misogynistic guy. Making her a trans boy would make her go from the GNC woman she is to a gender conforming man. It’s not doing what you think it’s doing. Jo is probably one of the most masculine women TD’s ever had and I think she’s an important character. She’s defiantly an important character to me since I had zero butches or tomboys to look up to in my life and it made me feel so othered.

This rant got a little personal but yeah. I just think the trans man jo headcanon is in poor taste. It makes her go from a highly GNC woman to a highly gender conforming man and it feelsss weird. Esp considering the gender imbalance in ROTI in the first place and making her a man makes it 5 girls and 8 guys. Yuckkk and we don’t need anymore guys!! But at the end of the day I don’t like to get too butthurt about it. It’s not canon and it’s the only trans headcanon I rlly dislike tbh. Umm anyway yeah!!! I love butches and tomboys and GNC woman and I love women!! Jo is one of the best representations of GNC women who still have their insecurities and I love her for that. I love Jo and tbh she’s probably the only TD character I actually care about. This was cheesy but yeah. This blog might have a problem with long rants about Jo but I’m gonna contribute to this problem anyway because she should be talked about more
