Today, I learned that this game has a Movie
Tumblr media
Only the Real Ones remember. I was obsessed with this game from ages 7-8, and I'm not sure why, especially the level with the Venus Flytrap. We should make it an Esport.

👑//Prince Charming Headcanons (Shrek)
Tumblr media
He's an idiotic, pompous, arrogant, man-child, that much is certain. He's been perpetually hiding beneath his mother's skirts for most of his life being spoiled absolutely rotten by her and was rarely ever told 'no' to the point that active disobedience actually confuses him. Though for all his whining and self-centeredness, he puts up an excellent facade of being a collected, engaging, and respectful individual. Charming knows very well how to read people and fully understands that diplomacy is a far better method of coercion than brutish threats of violence could ever hope to be.
'Prince' Charming is his name, not his occupation. He was a fairly decent adventurer and knight in his own right, but he didn't really excel anywhere else in his life.  Sure, he's a well-known socialite in Far Far Away that gets by solely on his looks and has pockets deeper than an oceanic trench, but... That's it. He has no real aspirations of his own, saying he doesn't need to aspire to anything except what his mother tells him to do.  It didn't help any that he's basically been assured a continued safe and comfortable life of extreme luxury and exuberance by her if he marries Princess Fiona, so of course he's got no real incentive to change or do anything that jeopardizes his mother's plans.
He hates Shrek, he loathes Fiona, and he utterly despises the rest of their mismatched, obnoxiously happy little 'family'. If only Shrek could have just given up and kept his ugly mug hidden in the swamp, then Charming could have married Fiona and lived his happily ever after. King Harold and Queen Lilian could've been 'removed' at a later time, the King for nearly breaking his mother's contract, and the Queen because of her ties to the exceptionally powerful Pendragon lineage.
He's actually quite knowledgeable on hexes, spells, potions, and all forms of wizardry, his mother made sure of it. She is after all the head of Fairy Godmother's Cottage, a very successful magic corporation, one that she fully intends on passing onto her half-fairy son. However, being knowledgeable is not the same as being skillful, everything he knows comes from books, pamphlets, and lectures from his own private tutors. He'd happily take archery lessons over enchantment drills any day of the week.
Long ago, when they were first betrothed, he had a crush on Fiona from ages nine to eleven, and even then, their face-to-face meetings were sparse and never carried on into the evening. He used to dress up as a servant to try and get close to her so they could play together, but he never gave her his name, always going by the moniker 'Charlemagne'. Fiona told him of her curse, though she never got into specifics out of fear her new friend would reject her. By the time he had finally come to rescue Fiona, his feelings for her waned significantly after nearly two decades of separation and uncertainty about her fate with rescuing and wedding her now being strictly out of obligation to fulfill his mother's contract with Far Far Away's rulers and nothing else.
He's got wings and a wand; he just wouldn't be caught dead out in public with either of them. He uses magic to hide the wings and the wand he doesn't even bother bringing along with him, worried it would make him appear weak or overly feminine. The commonfolk believe most fairies to be small female creatures that grant wish and with larger than normal wings due to his half-human heritage that highly resemble his mother's, he'd much rather much rather keep the myth going than be called 'miss'. Though he wouldn't mind helping a distraught yet beautiful maiden find her 'happily ever after' every once in a while.
An infamous womanizer, he's had girls wrapped around his dainty, uncalloused fingers for as long as he could remember. "Listen, I'm not one to kiss and tell, but Princess Rosette of the Peacocks was such a bore. I mean, the relationship was more manageable than the Twelve Gyrating Princesses or whatever they were called, now that was a mess of my own making." Every young noticeably wealthy girl has a tale about Charming whether it be about a wonderful date they went on together or how heartbroken they were when they learned he was technically already engaged.
He's not dead, far from it. The tower did fall on him during his attempt to take Shrek's life, but it did not crush him physically, just spiritually. Shallow scars from splintered floorboards and prop stone are hardly anything to worry about for the average person who would be grateful to even be alive. Though for Prince Charming, a scratch across his face might as well be the same as disfigurement and with nothing but spite motivating him at this point in his life, revenge is all that consumes his mind. Currently, he's in hiding in Avalon biding his time until the fateful day that 'King Arthur' comes to take his legendary sword Excalibur and become the true ruler over Britain, that day he plans on striking down the scrawny usurper without mercy.

🐲❤️‍🔥//Reignited Skylanders AU//Young Dragons Romantic Orientations Headcanons
Tumblr media
Sexuality ≠ Romantic Orientation. These are my thoughts and opinions on where the dragon children would fall on the Romance Spectrum. I knew the Classic/ Legend of Spyro dragons are 100% underage, but I wasn't sure how old the Skylander dragons were, so for the sake of the headcanons, everyone is a minor.

🧭//Minor Discussion About Dragon Age Headcanons from Spyro the Dragon to Spyro: Year of the Dragon
Dragons are a species of magical creatures that hatch from their eggs every twelve years, so I decided to try and match up the young dragons' ages from the events that occurred 1,000 years ago with their banishment by the Sorceress to Spyro's defeating her during the Year of The Dragon. I tried my darndest to accurately represent the ages of these dragons as accurately and comprehensibly as I could manage with my headcanon timeline. For the Sake of these headcanons:
12 HUMAN YEARS = 5 DRAGON YEARS.
A year is still a year for dragons and humans, but dragons physically age at a much slower rate when compared to humans.
Every Spyro adventure takes place approximately a year after the last one, making the first three games each have a dedicated year in which they took place.
Physical Human vs. Physical Dragon Development in Years
12 | 5
24 | 6
36 | 7
48 | 8
60 | 9
72 | 10
84 | 11
96 | 12
YOUNG DRAGONS:
Cynder: ~93 - 96 (Appears close in age to Spyro but her egg was being corrupted by Dark Magic which can effect appearance. )
Ember: 93 - 96
Flame: 93 - 96
Spyro: 93 - 96
Zinc: 60

Heavily inspired to do this because of @Ben l'hyéne's headcanons and my own personal thoughts on the matter, but I'm leaving the sexual orientation up to the readers. I suppose in this context they would all be asexual as many of my sources were aroace spectrum support websites. Also, I would love to hear other interpretations of the dragons' romantic orientation.

It’s a miracle, I managed to finish a drawing before 2022.
Thanks to their similar designs and the fact that both of them are weapons-themed, I like to think that Todor, one of the Peace Keeper dragons you rescue in Spyro Reignited, is the father of Blades from Skylanders. Blades is also a Peace Keeper dragon and lives in Ice Cavern too.
While Todor is a calm bowsman who accesses the situation and figures out weak points from afar, his dumb little son stuck a sword on his tail and canonically has a comic where he rushed headfirst into a castle and tried to fight a whole army with no back-up. No thinking - only stabbing. Probably gets his hotheadedness from his mother. (who is wherever they stuck the girl dragons)
Also I intentionally gave Blades less armor because my brain was like “Reignited Blades would look different”, as silly as that sounds. I might give him another go later.

What 'Y/N' Sees Vs. What Wally Sees...
Tumblr media
"Well, hello there new neighbor!~"
Tumblr media
"HMMPH-MMPH!" (Help me!)
Tumblr media
This is how I imagine 'y/n' arrives to the neighborhood, especially in Wally Darling x readers (Platonic or Romantic). Also Wally is President of the Home Owners' Association, @Partycoffin told me themself at brunch.

If you ever worry about your fic stats...
Just remember I got around 300 new hits in the last 24 hours. Do you want to know how many kudos I got from those hits?
Zero.
Does that mean my fics are horrible/trash/awful/not worth even of sparing a few seconds to clic on a button? Probably not. It means absolutely nothing. Maybe someone clicked by accident, maybe someone came back to re-read them, maybe someone forgot my fic opened in a tab and the page refreshed a dozen of times...
It's impossible to know. So don't focus too much on numbers. I know how demoralizing it can be to see hits continuing to rise and no real interaction, but that doesn't measure the time, effort and passion you put in your stories, or the quality of them.
Hang in there, friend. You did a good job <3

🐾//Three Diablos Language Headcanons:
Tumblr media
A series of headcanons I forgot to post on my 3,000th re-watch of the 13-minute animated short. I quickly realized that if those three little kittens began to speak, they would probably know more languages than Puss himself. All three are multilingual to some degree, but their ability to speak certain languages are different for various reasons. Sometimes it's a lack of practice... Sometimes it's a deliberate exclusion.
---
Based loosely on the proficiency guidelines set up by the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.
---
Literary References: -'The Vain Little Mouse' -'The Lion and the Thorn' -'The Lion and the Mouse'
TW: Mild Violence (Briefly Mentioned) and Past Abuse (Briefly Mentioned)
---
⚔️Gonzalo:
Cat = Superior. He's semi-familiar with this language, his upbringing saw him link up with every street critter that wasn't a cat. Truthfully, he'd sooner go to ask a rat for directions than he would a cat. It was because he started roaming the streets more in his adolescence that he got a chance to actually practice using it... When he wasn't guarding Princess Alessandra that is, aka, neglecting his duties in favor of hanging out with other tomcats and strays for... God knows what.
English = Distinguished. The official languages of Bellagamba are Italian and English, so he had no choice but to learn it, Princess' orders. One small issue, though, Gonzalo doesn't like authority figures and he most certainly doesn't like being told what to do, he listens to the royal family and his siblings to a greater degree, but everyone else is liable to receive an eye roll, a hiss, and a handful of claws to the face in that order. Need proof? Look no further than his battered and bruised English tutor who just. Wouldn't. Give. Up. No matter how many rotten apples he gave her or snakes he put in her shoes. Eventually, after a two-month long period of self-reflection, he started to regret his harsh treatment of her and very reluctantly gave in to her benign demands during her vocal lessons and even began to enjoy them a little. Well, it seems like the tenacious teacher has earned some of the troubled youth's respect.
French = Intermediate Mid. He knew words essential to his survival like 'food', 'water', 'money', and 'kill'. Learning it was never really on his agenda while under 'The Whisperer', but he still kept several key phrases and lots of foul language.
Italian = Distinguished. Perfetto! No tutor required, not with Alessandra next to him, who, in his opinion, was a much better teacher than the high-strung fools she usually brought in to teach him. He can be heard speaking this language often with everyone he comes across in Bellagamba first before using any English.
Spanish = Nope. After his short time with Puss, he was more than willing to learn how to speak Spanish, an enthusiasm that dwindled significantly over the years. He associates Spanish with Puss and Puss with every negative trait he can conjure up... He hasn't visited them in years! He never came back to Bellagamba, only his crappy store-bought gift cards did. And what were they written in? Words that resembled Spanish. Hell, half the time the words were totally illegible, and the paper was smeared with ink, cheap cologne, and spoiled milk. At this point, Gonzalo is now fully convinced that Puss has to be absolutely plastered in order to remember them, so if a card from Puss makes its way to him first, it's going straight into the trash. Safe to say he's not interested in learning anymore.
🌸Perla:
Cat > Distinguished. Learned from an old alley queen before her peaceful demise in the comfort of her empty apple crate. But don't expect her to use it around humans EVER, she's trying to keep a professional appearance while not undercover, and humans have such 'undignified' reactions. 'Aaw' and 'ooh' are common responses to her rather benign meows, and as teenager, she finds it embarrassing to no end.
English > Distinguished. Unlike the uncouth Gonzalo and absent-minded Timoteo, she was more than willing to learn English and took to it as quick as a bear dashes to a full honey pot. She was singing, writing, and reading in English around them, and they followed suit in their language development, well... Gonzalo did at least, Timoteo is not quite there yet.
French > Superior. She translated a lot of the mad ramblings of 'The Whisperer' to Gonzalo and Timoteo, so much so that they soon got the gist of what he was saying before she had a chance to translate. She says that's she's moved on from her time as a henchman, but if one looks closely at her when someone speaks it, her fur is standing on end and her breathing briefly quickens.
Italian > Advanced Mid. Timoteo was tutoring her at night while Alessandra had her during the day, it was kind of embarrassing for the very much independent Perla, but she knew it would be crucial to know.
Spanish > Novice Mid. She doesn't have many people to practice with and wanting to sincerely learn was only a recent thought after a rather embarrassing introduction in Spain. All she did was stop a cat burglar from victimizing an innocent mouse and now said mouse has acquired quite an unhealthy obsession with her... and she only speaks Spanish. The mouse shows up every now and then to confess her love to the bewildered feline, something about a 'pretty voice' and a 'pretty face'. Perla would be lying if she said that one of her sole motivators for learning wasn't to decipher what the lovestruck rodent was rambling about.
🐞Sir Timoteo Montenegro III:
Cat x Distinguished. His earliest memories are of lazing his days away in a modest pet store, and now he knows nearly all domesticated animal languages there are to know. Animals sitting in display cases and kennels all day have nothing but time to talk and Timoteo had nothing to do but listen.
English x Novice? He's got simple words and phrases memorized but it's unclear if he's actually understanding what's being said or if he's just copying his brother and sister. And while this supposed mimicry isn't exactly exclusive to English, it raises more flags because he has so much trouble speaking it.
French x Intermediate Low. He's got enough basic knowledge about this language; he wasn't really paying too much attention to his 'tutor'. He did, however, take notice when a spiked flail was coming his way courtesy of 'The Whisperer' himself. He's memorized the names of French desserts like Mille-feuille, eclairs, palmiers, and whatever else Perla read to him from the hideout's lackluster library.
Italian x Distinguished. Hmph, and Alessandra says she doesn't have any favorites, she keeps this little guy close to her at all times. Maybe it's a strategical move, he is the most unassuming Diablo, but still fierce if the situation calls for it... or maybe it's because she's afraid he'll eat the contents of his own wallet and chew on the brim of his hat newly repaired hat.
Spanish x Superior. A Spanish lion of royal descent and an Italian soldier with feline features becoming friends was unexpected, but Timoteo taking that thorn out of his paw was the probably the best idea he's ever had. It took two entire kingdom's several weeks to try and heal their prince's ailment while it only took a little cat twenty seconds. Bellagamba got itself a new allied power while Timoteo got a big, no, monumental older brother and an unwitting Spanish teacher.
