Arcane Characters + Universal Studios Headcanons

Hi!! I wanna be more active on here and since I've hit a bit of an artblock I've decided I'll do my second favorite thing which is headcanons!

As a Floridian, I decided to start with a topic I am quite familiar with which is of course, Universal Studios. In this imaginary situation they have the 2 parks 1 day ticket bc that's the one I usually use.

Also this would be a modern setting for obvious reasons.

------------------------------

Jinx would 100% ride as many rollercoasters as she can. She rarely gets motion sickness.

If the lines weren't too long she would ride them multiple times all day long.

If they were, Cait and Vi would get sick of seeing her suffer through the long ass lines so they would just buy her an express ticket.

Ekko usually rides with her but he can only take so much.

When she was a little older, Mylo tricked her into riding Jurassic Park (85 ft drop). He thought it'd just be a mean prank, little did he know he created a tiny adrenaline-seeking monster.

She would also violently compete against Caitlyn in Men in Black.

Favorite Universal Rides : Rip Ride Rocket, VelociCoaster, The Hulk, and Men in Black

Favorite Park: Islands of Adventure

I get the feeling Vi would be a foodie. And I can't blame her, theme park food is a lot of fun to explore. (I spent a good chunk of 2018 binge-watching DFBguide)

She would always try to go to a new restaurant every trip, and you will most likely find her chomping on a turkey leg.

When it comes to rides though, she also likes her fair share of rollercoasters. Though, she tries to ride them in the morning off the bat so she could eat in peace without feeling sick later.

I do think she'd like the 3D rides a lot too! I can definitely see her liking Transformers and Spider-Man.

Favorite Universal Rides : Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, Rip Ride Rocket, Revenge of the Mummy

Favorite Park: Universal Studios

Caitlyn likes the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. I know this is a bit on the nose because her VA was literally in Harry Potter, but it's a good combo between atmosphere, thrill, shopping, and treats.

I don't think Caitlyn is too into rollercoasters. I think she'd be more into rides with movement and a few drops rather than full on coasters.

The HP rides are mostly pretty tame in comparison to the rest of the coasters in the parks, so I can see her liking those the most. Gringotts and Forbidden Journey in particular.

I think she'd definitely be the most into shopping, her favorite park would probably be Studios due to this.

She likes going to Honeydukes with Vi, they like trying all the different sweets and treats together.

Lets Jinx win in Men in Black because she knows if she beats her Jinx will be annoyed at her for the rest of the day. If she's not going against Jinx though, she would absolutely annihilate you.

Favorite Universal Rides : Gringotts, Forbidden Journey, Men in Black

Favorite Park: Universal Studios

This poor man has a horribly weak stomach.

Jayce is NOT a rollercoaster fan. He is strictly 3D and dark rides only, with very few exceptions.

Hell I think the Gringotts drop might be too much for him. Not the first cart, but the second cart for sure makes him feel uneasy. (I am projecting, sitting in the second cart was not fun for me LMAO)

I think he and Viktor would have a blast looking into the behind the scenes part of theme parks, especially the engineering element.

If they're in Universal Studios Hollywood they would absolutely do the Studio Tour.

With the level of charisma he has, I can see him LOVING meet and greets. He really loves playing along with the characters. By the end of the day he'll have his little autograph notebook full of characters.

Favorite Universal Rides : The Simpsons Ride, The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man, Transformers

Favorite Park: Universal Studios

Viktor doesn't really mind rollercoasters. He wouldn't die on them like Jayce, but he doesn't actively seek to ride them. Maybe if the line was short and the group wanted to ride it, sure.

Actually speaking of lines, he would get an accessibility pass so he wouldn't have to stand for extended periods of time. He would also make sure to sit down and take breaks as to not strain his leg too much.

Breaks could also mean going to watch the many shows Universal provides, like the Horror Makeup Show or The Bourne Stuntacular.

Back to rides though, he likes, no, LOVES Transformers. It's fast, the queue is very scientific-esc, and honestly.. transformers just give me machine herald vibes.

He is very awkward when it comes to meet and greets, so he's usually just taking the picture for Jayce. However, the only meet and greet he really truly looks forward to is the Transformers. He is extremely fascinated with the way Universal was able to create such an immersive and realistic looking replica of them.

I think him and Jayce would be intrigued by the interactive wands in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. They think it's fun that they found a way to create the illusion of magic by using sensors in the wands.

I think he'd like Forbidden Journey bc the ride makes you feel like you're flying, and he seemed to be having a blast in Ep 3 haha

Favorite Universal Rides : Transformers, Forbidden Journey, Skull Island: Reign of Kong (literally only to see that insanely realistic looking animatronic)

Favorite Park: Universal Studios

------------------------------

My god that took longer than I thought it would. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed! I adore theme parks so this was a lot of fun to do.

Also as a bonus, I have a little paper Viktor cut out that I take basically everywhere, including Universal! Here's him in front of the Universal ball haha

Hot take, but I feel like the star / supersister artstyle has a much better taste in fashion compare to the rest. Idk something about the way they style the clothes for the sisters just hit right to me and I even dare to say it is a bit better compare to the older artstyles (including the 1 - 4 comics artstyle). Like, don't get me wrong the old artsyles has good fashion, but for me personally, the star artstyle fashion choice for the girls felt like something they would actually wear u know?

It is a hot take in the fandom, but I do agree with said take :D

You can hate on the snouts and the lips, sure

But the girls’ fashion sense?

Let’s be real the girls’ fashion sense in the previous artstyle was very general white person fashion sense, enough so that you can swap the color palettes of one of their outfits and you’d think it was for one of the other girls. Which isn’t a good thing when you think about it :D

Like seriously their fashion sense can be summarized thusly:

For all of them in general: if they’re not in a tropical climate, they can and will have sleeves. Usually long sleeves.

Colette: roll a d20. If the result is under 15, then she wears a skirt or a dress. Ironically she’s the one with the most hit-or-miss outfits of the five, either through color palette or just skirts being used when they shouldn’t be.

Nicky: if it doesn’t fulfill any of the given conditions: a variant of her old standard outfit, has a collar, is a green shirt paired with brown pants/shorts, is a jacket, is a jacket/coat with upturned collars, has green in it somewhere or everywhere, has orange in a strange spot meant to emulate the old outfit; then who the hell are you talking to that’s not Nicky

Pam: either it’s a shadow of her original red and olive palette, or it has the most heinous shade of lime green paired with her usual red or just have green where it legally shouldn’t be. If it can sweater, it will sweater. She’s been gaining drip lately in the Italian books tho I’ll give her that—

Paulina: she does go for a bit of cozy retro vibes in her fashion style, but I think 60% of them at least have some sort of scarf variant. I dunno, she’s doing fine but her fashion sense is nothing to write home about. If it can sweater, it will sweater.

Violet: Violet, I love you, you’re my blorbo but I’m sorry, you wear so much purple that sometimes I think your wardrobe just looks like Robin’s wardrobe in Teen Titans with the hundred copies of the exact same color palette. Bit classy, fluctuates from sweater child to absolute queen on a dime /pos. If she’s in a temperamental climate, roll a d20; any score below 15 means she wears long sleeves. Flip a coin; if you win, skirt, and if you lose, no skirt. IF IT CAN SWEATER, IT WILL SWEATER. Tho I will say I don’t think I’ve seen a single wardrobe L from Vi that wasn’t out of pure personal taste or the artstyle being weird (i.e. frills and/or lace), so that’s a dub for her :D also in-character but also good on Vi’s sense of judgment because apparently according to some extra Italian content, Vi’s the most experimental with her wardrobe. Minus the purple. God woman has so much purple—

With the newer style, at least the girls have more drip :D drip that actually looks like something they’d wear as opposed to being restrained to color palettes :D

THEY GAVE PAULINA GLASSES AND NICKY MULTIPLE EAR PIERCINGS LIKE WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN WHY IS IT SO THEM AND HOW CAN I GET MO—

#geronimo stilton #thea stilton #thea sisters #questions with e #i remember looking at a preview illustration from this book about the girls going to a blue island and saw a thing of them at dinner #and vi was wearing a cute red blouse #and i thought “ooo what’s the occasion :3c”#context: red in chinese culture is reserved for special occasions like parties or chinese holidays #i will forever stan paulina and pam getting outfits that lean more into their cultural heritages #their earrings are so <3 #anyway ye their outfits got buffed and i love it #they started doing it actually when they started with the watercolor-ish coloring style kinda #but most of them are. say it with me now #not translated to english yet.#what the hell scholastic

What is the wildest piece of trivia from the game you know?

Coming from a wiki editor, I'm a behind the scenes historian. Some few examples include:

The fact the key promotional artist was semi-viral in the Spanish JoJo community.

The fact Jacksepticeye played a prior project from Genow (Robin is the game in question).

The fact Maki was the first character created in general.

The cut cutscenes between Vanessa & Hoaxe.

Being indirectly responsible for leaking new info about the game because I copied & pasted something from the discord server.

And the funniest one.

Genow accidentally liking a NSFW artist's SFW Kabbu fanart and being unaware on the content that person draws.

bold of you to assume i know any cool trivia that i didn't learn from the wiki lmao. EVERYTHING you just said is new information to me

like, some background lore i know is the "you shouldnt be able to use the compass in the beehive" argument, leif used to a lady named cerise, some of the characters came from an earlier version where the game was about sea creatures instead of bugs.

but yeah most of the trivia i know is throw away lines from having team snakemouth chit chat/talk to npcs that mean absolutely nothing to the overall game but mean everything to me <3

#fun facts from such throwaway lines #vi is Very Bad with machinary #she also wants own a shop #Leif is older than the invention of glasses #leif HATES “termite pop”#leif thinks that running something like the coliseum would be fun #kabbu is scared on the bridge from the hive to the tree #but he thinks that the bounce mushrooms are a lot of fun #he also wanted desperately to roll down the sand dunes for fun but leif and vi wouldnt do it cause they didnt want sand in their fur #the bees that work in the factory work several day shifts #iirc the bee in the hive running the shop. it was like literally her first day or something lol #when talking to the stickbug someone comments to leif 'not used to seeing someone taller than you huh?'#which is where ALL my tall leif proof comes from fuck the sprites i am correct #kabbu is incredibly curious and wants to buy everything from the junk seller on metal island #he sees a crack in the wall and he HAS to find out whats on the other side #i dont remember any more off the top of my head lol #ask #chit chat #aged-string

i need to take everyone's hand and gently lead them to google and teach them how to search '[new favorite band] label' so they can see if their new cool up and coming band is signed to a major and has aspirations of being Big Famous

#of course this doesn't guarantee anything and there's nuance #but (for ex) when ppl want to 'gatekeep' chappell roan it's like...the girl is signed to island i don't think she Wants you to gatekeep her #and it's wild because i'm like not pro-major at all in the way the current system works #but i think so many fans want and demand the kind of projects that are only possible with major-level funding and global reach #idk #this is why i was so (selfishly) annoyed when boygenius signed with interscope. i knew what kind of success they were pursuing and it didn'#match with my previous perception of the band and what it stood for. but that was MY perception. it wasn't what they wanted.#vi is typing...

#despite how hard the graveyard shift can be vis a vis sleep/etc #I really love being by the ocean every day #when cat & I were working at that warehouse lab building test strips #it was just: go inside box with fluorescent lights and leave with a massive migraine #I’d walk after work to the bay or the park cause I needed trees and the ocean lol #so now sometimes here I’ll just stand and look out at the ocean and it’s a really nice place for my mind to be able to go #I want to visit one of the nearby islands once it’s warmer #I like that I can see them in the distance I miss the island I grew up on 24/7

just played sonic frontiers for the first time for a couple hours and in my professional Sonic Expert(tm) opinion, we need to crowdfund therapy for whoever directed this game. or, if I ever manage to locate the willpower to finish this fucking game, for me

#deerchatter #they fucking had me in 2017 or whatever when sonic forces came out and it was so fun and pleasant and in working order #i let my guard down. became complacent. thought for a second in time that sonic team finally learned how to code #not FUCKING SO MY FRIENDS !!!#you know a sonic game is gonna be a Sonic Game(tm) when one of the first things the game tells you is which settings to adjust if you're #experiencing motion sickness. within the first five minutes. thanks sonic team #anyway vis a vis therapy for the director: why is this game so sad?? all the music and the rain and the quiet ... ness??#the literal writing says Sonic And His Friends Get Lost On A Island :)#the set pieces say sonic's battling depression in purgatory #don't get me wrong i love sonic games that suck that's why i go here but this one isn't just bad it's SUPER WEIRD ..#absolutely insane vibe direction on this bitch. shadow the hedgehog ps2 game was more upbeat than this #sonic frontiers spoilers

To prepare for the role, [Lesley Manville] listened to the few audio tapes available of the princess during the ’90s, including an appearance Margaret made on BBC Radio’s Desert Island Discs, which is recreated in the episode. She also spoke to several mutual friends who happened to know the late royal, given her passion for the arts.
