New story, New characters!
I’ve never been so excited with my own ocs before lol. Not that my other ocs don’t excite me, but It’s something about nerdy friend groups that I just absolutely love. I even came up with voice claims for them, which I literally never do 😭 So I’ll list them below, along with a short description of their personalities.
Micah
Voice claim: Alex from Madagascar
Micah’s definitely the most chill person in the group. I imagine he was kinda shy around the other two when they first started being friends, but would get really close and comfortable with them quickly. Though he’s not as chaotic and goofy as his friends, he still likes to get involved with whatever Willow and Eve are doing (both to have fun with them and make sure they don’t get into trouble). When he’s not doing that, he often keeps himself busy with little activities like reading, knitting, doing yoga, etc.
Willow
Voice claim: Larry The Cucumber from Veggietales
Willow, much like his voice claim, is very energetic and optimistic. Though his silliness might be a bit overwhelming at times, I imagine he can be very genuine and understanding when he needs to be. He’s definitely a social butterfly, always eager to meet new people and make their day. To him, theres no better feeling than the one that comes from making people smile, especially his friends. He also really likes trying new things, which really motivates his adventurous side.
Eve
Voice claim: Lola Bunny from The Looney Tunes Show
Eve is very similar to Willow personality wise and were the first to become friends before they met Micah shortly after. She’s known for her passion in the arts, being a writer and painter herself, and she always manages to find inspiration for her work in the world around her. She’s got a very sharp eye for even the smallest of details. And while that often causes her to be distracted, she just can’t help but enjoy and give attention to the things she feels are often overlooked.

Wren - long ahh text about here if you're interested:
A character I’m developing for a long form Unnamed project involving “small people”aka Minifolk, living unseen set throughout North American cities, farmlands, and forests.
Wren is a Lone, meaning she does not live in a community with other Minifolk. Typically lones are traders and travelers by choice, but Wren was displaced by a natural disaster affecting her family. Her and her family of 6 were hit by a flash flood, and in an attempt to save her father from being swept away, she herself was taken by the river miles and miles away. She believes her family was taken by the river as well.
Wren was the eldest sibling and a masterful seamstress in her home, and her family did not participate in trade between forest/city communities, rather they self sustained through farming/foraging. She lived a fairly sheltered and quiet life, so her navigation and survival skills are clumsy and mostly focused on hiding herself. She isn’t sure how long she’s been alone.
Utilizing her sewing skills, Wren crafted a cape comprised of lichen, pressed moss, and various plant matter woven together. When frightened, Wren curls up to blend in with her environment. She also repurposed her clothes to be better fitted for travel.
Wren rarely encounters other minifolk due to being so deep in the wilds, and is often too frightened to interact if she stumbles upon them. But perhaps she will find the courage to join a group of travelers?

Johnny Test: Power Up! - Show Concept
After seeing @mrultra100 's post about his rendition of the JT cast for Primal Eternity and @rominadrawsart15 about Ultimate Showdown, I decided to do a long followup/post about "Johnny Test: Power Up!" I've already explained about the characters, the new world and the settings of this spinoff in 5-6 posts, but now with lots of redeveloping and brainstorming, I'll give you the redefined concept of the spinoff!
But before I reintroduce the stars as well as the whole concept itself, I wanted to explain the reason on why I came up with the spinoff idea and why I wanted to make it official. My opinion is that Johnny Test has A LOT of potential to shine, but executive meddling from the studio, cutting the budget and overall the infamy from the Internet severely dampened the spark and ultimately became dead. And don't get me started on The Lost Web Series, where the animation looked stiff and cheap. Hell, even when the Netflix revival did some things right (though the theme song was not good), lack of attention and exposure basically sealed its fate indefinitely and extinguishing the spark forever. Which is honestly pretty sad for me, because it had some potential, that needed to be expanded. And this is why I came up with a rather BIG change to shake things up and reinvigorate the series with a cosmic bang!
What's the premise of the series?
So, here's the premise for "Johnny Test: Power Up!":
After a mysterious incident, which involved about a powerful machine and a big mistake, Johnny, Dukey, the sisters and many of their friends, loved ones and enemies, as well as a few strangers get teleported to an unknown galaxy very far away from theirs, inhabited by aliens, anthromorphic animals and a few mystical ones in a futuristic environment. For the main team, it will be in the planet, Lumina, specifically in a futuristc and colourful city, named Starfall City. From there on, the team have to go through (mis-)adventures to find the others, the lost memories and a way back home, while encountering new friends, who would help them along the way and fighting off bigger threats than they would ever imagine. All while forming a new bond, that would last through the cosmos and the chaos, while trying to survive in this new world.
Unlike the last iterations, it'll be a mix between serialized and episodic, striking a balance between the comedic Johnny Test side with some anime slapstick mixed in (i.E., making the characters even more expressive) and the more serious and dark ones, with emotional moments, plottwists and so on. The episodes will be longer though, somewhat between 16-22 minutes of each episode, with the exceptions being specials and movies, which are longer. The series will also take two years after the original and the revival (there has been debate about their ages in the revival, until I talked to Ultra about it), which means the characters will be older and since they will be in a new world, they would be redesigned to fit in the adventurous and stylish vibe. There will be also an in-universe explaination on how they got the redesigns. So, while some familiar elements will be there, an overarching story and a new coat of paint will provide some fresh air.
Let's meet the main stars!
While the cast will be a good mix between returning veterans and newcomers, the show will be mainly focused on the Test siblings, their pal Dukey and finally THREE new characters. The group of seven will be the heart and core of the show, with their own personalities, backstories, flaws, character arcs, etc. So, let's meet them!
Johnny Test (voiced by James Arnold Taylor) - The hyperactive and bright leader of his own team. When he was a kid, he just wanted ot have fun by any means neccesary, despite of how irresponsible he can be. He may be a lazy jerk sometimes, he does have a big heart and courage, which will later be very useful. As the years went on, the usual shenanigans bored him out of his mind, but one day, when he saw a video of some sick parkour moves, he was so amazed, that he and Dukey decided to train themselves some parkour. At the beginning, he struggled without any invention, but as time went on, he became better and better, to the point that he is known for his very quick moves, but also for his cocky attitude. Little did he know, that by the time, he would be mysteriously teleported to Lumina, he would face even more dangerous threats and bigger challenges, this fiery boy would ever imagine and even changing his life forever. On the bright side, this new world allows him to hone more of his parkour skills, while exploring the galaxy, meeting new friends and learning things along the way, which would change his perspective in a new way. However, that means, he had to let go of his old habits and mature, in order to be on par against his new and powerful enemies. When the situation is tense, his demeanor would change into a more serious fighter, willing to go even further beyond to protect his friends, his loved ones and his new home. And together with his best friend, Dukey, his sisters and his three new friends, they'll push through the danger for a better future.
Dukey (voiced by Trevor Devall) - The voice of reason and the sidekick of the team. An anthromorphic dog, mutated by Susan and Mary, acting as a older brother figure to Johnny, going along with him during their crazy adventures and many activities, with the recent activity being lots of parkour. Despite their close bond going for years, Dukey still freuqently expresses his concern and distain towards Johnny's less intellegent and more dangerous antics and is especially concerned about his health, when it comes to the latter being used as a guinea pig for the twins' experiements, either for finding a way back home or just out of curiousity, due to Luminian technology. After being teleported into Lumina, not only he and the others have to adapt in the new galaxy, but the situation made him even more stressed and anxious than ever. Didn't help, that one of the new friends, he made, is such a impulsive hot-head, who also goes through even more dangerous antics, which means he had to watch out for that. His friendship towards the Tests and the new ones will be tested time after time, as the threats would become bigger and more dangerous while trying to survive in this new frontier. But in the end, if the situation is tense, the mutt will swallow his fears down and stand up against the enemies, together with his best friends, while also learning important lessons along the way.
Susan Test (voiced by Maryke Hendrikse) - One half of the team's brains and a talented scientist. Always seen inventing stuff or swooning over Gil, along with her twin sister. She is known to think a lot more rationally and logically than Mary, but also less open-minded. So imagine her reaction, when not only she gets sent to a different galaxy, along with the others, but one of her new friends being a magical fairy (leading to Susan often being at odds against Serena, due to their beliefs and the latter not approving of her using Johnny as a lab rat, which is the reason, why the fairy dislikes the sisters) , one being a robot with a happy personality being built in and one being a teenage, alien snail, whose rage would make her look like a rational and calm person. On the bright side, the advanced technology allowed her and Mary to experiment on it, trying to emulate it, while also trying to find a way back home. Most of the times, they would fail spectaculary, but they're slowly learning. At one point, after seeing her little brother and Dukey doing some parkour, she and Mary decided to train themselves, in case if they have to take the situation themselves, not knowing that it would happen sooner than she expected, with bigger threats and higher stakes. Armed with smart glasses and many gadgets, this headstrong girl will make sure, that any bad guy wouldn't get away.
Mary Test (voiced by Emily Tennant) - The other half of the team's brains and also a talented scientist. Much like her twin sister, she posesses a high IQ and does everything with her sister together. Either inventing stuff, using Johnny as a lab rat or swooning over Gil. However, unlike Susan, Mary is more open-minded, empathetic, but less outspoken. Also unlike her sister, she is more open to more hypothetical sciences such as extraterrestrials and cryptids, which caused her to be at odds with Susan, but at least one of her new friends, Serena, likes her a bit more than her twin sister. After getting sent to Lumina, seeing the aliens and making friends with a fairy, as well as the advanced tech, made her more determined to recreate Luminian technology for more groundbreaking results. But because she is less outspoken, Mary is often in the background, while the others shine. This makes her yearning for the day, she would be in the spotlight. Unbeknownst to her, the day would come sooner than she expected. Fortunately, with several gadgets, smart glasses and a quicker pace, Mary would do anything to protect those, she loved the most and defeat the enemies.
Schalot (voiced by Brian Doe) - Despite him not really buff lookng (his body type is slim btw), this teenage, pastel pink snail is the strong and fast fighter of the team, ready for a fight. Described as a impulsive, sassy, moody, introverted (as well as chaotic), yet tough and direct individual, this guy is not afraid to show and speak up his opinions, in form of roasts and shouts to almost anyone. Always armed with a scepter, which has a plasma blade insjde that can pop up with the push of a small button and several throwing blades, he is known for his fast moves and devastating attacks. Heck, instead of running away, he wouldn't go down with a fight (though when he's too overloaded with panic, he would simply faint). His biggest character flaw is that Schalot is so sensitive and hot-headed, that even a slight annoyance would tip him off and he has trouble managing his emotions, due to a traumatic event (which was an alien invasion) at a young age, which lead to losing his parents (He would later find his siblings). In other words, outside of his tough shell is a very vulnerable and damaged person, yearning for comfort, company and happiness. But on the flipside, he is not a full blown jerk, as this snail is loyal and caring, like a big brother to the team, who's willing to protect them at any cost, despite him being the youngest of the pastel siblings. In the free time, he would be seen browsing on his phone, adoring cats and overall minding his own business with milkshakes and sweets.
Serena Rose (voiced by Shannon Chan-Kent) - A shy and timid, yet sweet and kind girl, who's at the same age as Johnny. She just moved to Porkbelly with her dad, when they were mysteriously teleported into a new galaxy. Feeling scared, she tried to find her dad, only to meet Johnny, Dukey, Susan, Mary, Schalot and Ziffy instead. (She will later reuinite with her dad) The amber/yellow eyed girl serves as the heart of the group, taking care of her friends and attempting to solve conflicts. During battle, she moves with so much grace and fluidity, because she did take gymnastics classes before. While she may sound like an average sweet girl to some, Serena is far more special than anyone else: She is in fact, a fairy! Inherited from her missing mother, she has magical abilites of flight with her pink fairy wings and casting spells, with a special necklace. Her biggest flaw is, she is too afraid to use her magic, due to an event, where after being corned by some bullies, her fear lead to an unintenional blast, which also hurt a few innocent people as well. Thankfully, after hearing her story, Johnny and the others will help her overcome her fears and embrace her fairy side, inspiring her to train her skills and use them for good. But be careful! If you commit crime and/or hurt her loved ones, be prepared to be the receiving end of a magical punishment.
Ziffy (voiced by Andrea Libman) - A small robot assistant with a very lively and happy personality, ready to help the team out on (almost) any situation, while also making new friends with a bright smile. So much so, that even in the most dire situation, they never give up hope and keep looking out to the light. They're also the glue of the group, often approaching with a neutral perspective and making sure, the team wouldn't break up, while also acting as a n assistant to the sisters. (Fun fact, they and the robots created the T-05 multipurpose communicators, that houses a special plasma tether, known as the Neolink, which allows the user to latch onto targets to pull them in, throw them around and so on. It can also be used as a rope or even a whip. The users can even combine their Neolinks to make a longer beam, a bungee cord or even a net for example. It's a very versatile tool for exploration, combat and utility.) . Despite their small size, they pack a lot of stuff, like many weapons, gadgets (ranging from practical and useful to outright ridiculous), etc, in case they would protect their friends in a dire situation, when they need their help. However, they have the tendency to overload to stress out and being too emotional, due to the programming and the AI not being perfect. Especially, when their friends, including their best friend, Schalot, would cause chaos. This would result in Ziffy taking breaks and recharging themselves during the night. Regardless of their flaws, if you are down, expect Ziffy to cheer you up with a smile and lots of fun!
Meet their allies!
Our heroes will not go through those adventures alone, as several allies, both new and old will assist them throught the journey. The newcomers will also serve to help the others develop, while also having their own arcs. So, let's meet the allies!
Mr. Black and Mr. White (voiced by Scott McNeil and Deven Mack) - Two undercover agents working for the General. While they try to do their jobs, most of the times, they fail out of incompetence, which leads to Schalot calling them "Agents Dumb and Dumber". But when push comes to shove, they will put extra effort against the enemies. The General (voiced by Lee Tockar) - The general in Lumina's Area 2.1. Being appointed out of pure luck, he would do his usual thing, which would make him at odds with his second in command, Cynthia, who is more serious. However, when the situation becomes serious, he wouldn't hesitate to go all out with the fight, even though most of the times, he and the army would fail against the most cunning villains. Cynthia (voiced by Nicole Oliver) - The oldest sibling of the pastel snail siblings and the second in command in Area 2.1. Unlike her peers, she takes her job seriously with her massive experience in combat and cold and strict demeanor, with some paranoia sprinkled in. One that, even Schalot himself is afraid of her on a bad day. On the flipside, the pastel green snail is a very protective and mature person, willing to sacrifice herself for her loved ones. Especially her young siblings, though she is protective towards her youngest brother, who is more reckless and impulsive.
Sky (voiced by Vincent Tong) - A pastel blue snail, who is the older twin of Melody. He is a very creative and generous being, who works really hard in form of his artworks and masterpieces. Sky is also protective to Melody, who can be a bit reckless, but not as much as his youngest brother, Schalot. However, being an artist would also leave him anxious and somewhat of a control freak, but despite all of this, his loved ones and friends would help Sky overcome his fears and bring out more inspiration. Melody (voiced by Kelly Sheridan) - A very lively and energetic woman with an eye for talent and fashion, since she is a musician and songwriter. This pastel yellow snail is known for her melodic voice, fashionable looks and positive personality. Being the youngest twin of Sky, they would often collaborate each other for many projects. Despite for being a drama queen, her heart is in the right place and truly cares for her siblings. Even though she is not a fighter, when the situation is tight and it involves her loved ones, she wouldn't hesistate to try her best to fight.
Sissy Blakely (voiced by Ashleigh Ball) - Johnny's old rival(/possible love interest?) and an incredibly confident, yet sissy girl. Often seen competing with Johnny, along with her dog, Missy, but this time, they would also often compete in parkour, since she saw Johnny and Dukey doing some sick tricks, before they were sent to Lumina, so the ladies decided to take up parkour as well. When she is not competing, she would try her best to adapt in this new world, until she finds a way back home. In the meantime, she would also have a mutual respect towards Serena, though she would (rarely) comment, if the two have a crush on each other, when the two are together, which both Johnny AND Serena vehemently deny out of embarrasment. Speaking of the latter, Serena would be confused on why they are fighting and would try her best to solve the conflict, even though the situation is far too complex to understand. She does come in a pinch to help them out every now and then.
Gil Nexdor (voiced by Andrew Francis) - A tall teenager with good looks and charm, that even girls and even boys would be fawning over. He's slightly smarter in the show and would even interact with the teenage residents in Lumina, after he got teleported there. He is still friendly towards Johnny and meets his new friends at the same time, though Schalot isn't impressed, due to his stupidity. But unlike his past iteration, he would have more depth to his character and be more interesting.
Herbert Rose (voiced by Brian Drummond) - A middle aged man, who is Serena's father. He is described as a quiet, yet smart and empathetic man, who tries his best to take care of his daughter, after his wife, Delia, went missing under mysterious circumstances. Prior to the incident, he and Serena just moved to Porkbelly and he was about to take a job as a teacher, as Herbert learned about education and psychology. Ever since meeting the Tests, everytime when there is conflict, especially that Serena became friends with the Test siblings, he would act as a mediator, trying to solve the conflict. Mind you, this doesn't happen that often, due to a busy schedule. But despite the new chaotic situation of them adapting in a new galaxy, he hopes, that maybe, Delia would be out somewhere, alive and well. Oh and he is aware about his daughter being a fairy (due to Delia also being a fairy) and is okay, but he is concerned about her safety. Bling-Bling-Boy (voiced by Lee Tockar) - A rich and snobby genius, who also got teleported into the new galaxy. As soon, as he learned about Luminian technology, he started researching about it and even incoorporate elements with his own inventions. Despite being Johnny's enemy, who is deeply in love with Susan, he does like his presence and even hang out with him and Dukey for fun times, even occationally teaming up with them against the other enemies and villains. In other words, he has a hidden soft spot for them and even Schalot, Serena and Ziffy, despite them interfering with his plans. Also despite the fact, that Schalot is not afraid to show his dislike towards Eugene, either by roasts or even attacks, which really annoys him.
Jillian Vegan (voiced by Maryke Hendrikse) - A very closed off and rebellious girl, who wants to build her own image and become independent, much to her dad's dismay. Arriving in Lumina away from her family would allow her to follow her dreams and later reuinite with Johnny and Dukey, while meeting their new friends at the same time. When Dark Vegan returned, tensions will grow, as Jillian tries her best to grow up and become more independent. Only time will tell, if she can achieve her dreams. Orion (voiced by Ian Hanlin) - A really wealthy, yet hard working, courteous and chill, lilac snail, originating from Nox, who is never afraid to show his kindness and generosity to the less fortunate. At a young age, he and his mom fled from his greedy and mean dad, who was running a company and went into hiding out of fear. Unfortunately, she became seriously ill and without any money for healthcare or even some form of help, passed away. From this point on, Orion decided to help the less fortunate and with the help of his friends, opened up a company, focusing on wellness products. At one point, he met Schalot, who was haunted by his own guilt, after his berzerk form nearly destroyed Starfall CIty and hurting his friends and loved ones and helped him heal and overcome his demons. His efforts worked, when the pink snail managed to stop Orion's father, exposing his shady tactics and saving the employees and other people from his grasp. Ever since then, he's been in touch with Schalot and became very close friends. But maybe there's more to this, than it seems... There will also be other characters, the heroes are interacting in Lumina, ranging from Spritz (voiced by Cathy Wesluck), an owner of a milkshake parlor, to various Luminians and other aliens. Most of them will be one-offs though, with some exceptions.
As for the villains, I already made a post, right here. All my points about them will still stand, apart from Terios being more chivalrous and noble.
What are the themes and goals?
As I mentioned before, the main goal of "Power Up!" is to flesh out the series in a new way, making complex stories and themes, while also keeping the good things about the series and eliminating its weakpoints, both the original and revival had. It also needs much more needed improvements, like better written characters, a more exciting and fantastical world or in this case, a new galaxy for them to explore, having mature storylines with higher stakes and lessions throughout the way, a connected storyline (i.e, finding a way back home, remembering about the past to improve themselves, etc.) Aside from Dukey, most of the characters are quite bland in the two official versions, so another goal is to flesh them out even more, learning more about the new frontier, while also slowly growing up, having more depth and having different morals and goals. This is also a reason, why I introduce those new characters. They'll help them flesh out even more with their interactions and stories for them to listen and learn. For example, Serena would help Johnny to be more considerate to his surroundings with her kindness, Ziffy teaching the sisters to be more optimistic and Schalot helping Dukey to overcome his anxiety. On the flipside, the veterans would also help the newcomers overcome their hurdles in their lives and mature, as the series goes on.
Also, it needs to be better paced, like even when the action will be fast paced, other times, it should be slown down, so that character development would blossom. Not to mention, remove the toilet humor, make the writing more mature and we have something, that can be enjoyed by everyone. That being said, in order to escape from the low-budget past, "Johnny Test: Power Up!" will have better and stronger writing, with three themes being symbols of their new mythos:
Unity - No matter the race and identity, everyone deserves to work and stand together for a better future. Friendships and famiies, as long as they're healthy and really connected, will stand strong against the odds.
Love - Whatever it is self-love, love towards your loved ones and many more, everybody had to embrace themselves to be unique and proud of who they really are. Not to mention, building up confidence and happiness.
Dreams - Even when the world is against it, never give up following for your dreams and keep fighting for it.
On top with those themes, the characters will be alot more fleshed out for this new frontier, with those inspirations for their looks, personalites, etc. listed here:
Johnny - Sonic The Hedgehog (Sonic Prime), his s1 and reboot versions with a few shades of the later seasons, several design elements from Sonic Boom, Luffy (One Piece), Michelangelo (both TMNT 2012 and ROTTMNT)
Dukey - All of his versions in the entire series, Luigi (Super Mario), Yuunagi Tsubasa/Cure Wing (Hirogaku Sky! Pretty Cure)
Susan - All of her versions in the entire series, Chi-Chi (Dragon Ball Z), Donatello (ROTTMNT), Musa (Winx Club)
Mary - Same thing for Susan, Amy Rose (Sonic the Hedeghog), Timmy (Winx Club), Sunset Shimmer (Equestria Girls shorts)
Schalot - Raphael (both TMNT 2003 and 2012), Escargoon (as a design inspiration) (Kirby: Right Back at Ya!) , Sonic the Hedgehog (Sonic Boom), a few aspects from myself (being an awkward introvert, a phone addict, sensitive side and being the youngest), Batman (but only for parts of the backstory), Strider Hiryu (Strider), Ichigo Kurosaki (Bleach)
Serena - Flora and Roxy (Winx Club), Nijigaoka Mashiro/Cure Prism (Hirogaku Sky! Pretty Cure), Cream the Rabbit (Sonic the Hedgehog), Clawdeen Wolf (Monster High G3), Liko (Pokémon: Horizons), Akimoto Komachi/Cure Mint (Yes! Pretty Cure 5 and Yes! Pretty Cure 5 GoGo!)
Ziffy - Pinkie Pie (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic), Navi (Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger), Frankie Stein (Monster High G3), Auriana (Lolirock), Smash (Power Rangers: Beast Morphers), XJ9/Jenny Wakeman (My Life as a Teenage Robot)
As I said, the premise of the show will take place mostly in Lumina. There will be times, they had to travel to other planets and galaxies for finding the others, doing some errands or just to take a break (Although evil wouldn't let them rest so easily of course, so they have to watch out.) The team will reside in Starfall City, a futuristic and eco-friendly city, filled with skylines, hover vehicles, glimmering fauna, elevators connecting ground and sky level, sleek buildings and many more, all connected with a combination of highly advanced technology and magic. Inspired by mega cities, like Tokyo, Zenith from Winx Club and the Y2K aesthetic, this city will be the new hub and playground for some parkour and extreme sports. Its residents are incredibly diverse with anthomorphic aliens and mythical beings, all with their own mythos and culture. As for Lumina itself, it'll have luscious and sparkling fauna with jungles, seas and so on. It also has a vere breathable atmosphere.
The show will be inspired by Sonic Synergy (basically a very early version of Sonic Boom), Sonic Prime, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Sonic X, Ratchet and Clank, Rise of the TMNT, Power Rangers, Winx Club, Danny Phantom, Glitch Techs, TMNT 2012 and several shonen elements, all while being influenced by the first season of the original and the revival in some aspects.
In conclusion, the themes, ideas, stories and mythos would help the series evolve and adapt to modern times, removing its weaknesses, while keeping the good things about it in a fine balance. This has been a dream project of mine, I really want to make it fully offical and have to keep fighting for it, in order to shine brighter than the stars.
More concept info coming soon and Happy New Year, everyone!

Idea: The queer bait (and switch)
Have 3 leads, two white pretty boys with a classic ship dynamic between them (but no romance) and the third is a girl. Later on in the cannon, once the fandom eventually begins shipping the pretty boys introduce a new character, another girl. She and the lead girl fall deeply in love (of course they can't run away together, they stay on the show)
The pretty boys on the other hand, both end up having girlfriends and because fundamentally incompatible, maybe even have one leave the show to raise kids with his gf. Two of the straightest straight men to ever exist
The fandom can't even call out the show for queer baiting because well, there is actual real queer relationship explored in the show- just not the one the fandom wanted.

Y'all y'all y'all y'all.. Forgot to post about this but I'm making a new show of my own titled "Pinespire"!!!
The show follows Shelly, the creative protagonist who's literally me, who loves meeting with her friends in Pinespire which is this little medieval town based on "Helen". It's also known as "the town where weird things happen" because weird nonsense happens everyday in that town. The citizens are pretty much used to it. There's gonna also probably be so many magical beings who exist in this show because they live in a fantasy location.. Maybe one of the magical beings casted a spell on Pinespire and that's why weird things are happening everyday in that town in the first place.
About Shelly's character.. She loves art and nature. She winds up working at the art camp in Pinespire due to it being art outside in the wilderness. There could maybe be a scene where she teaches "the different shapes in the clouds", where you were to look up at the clouds and come up with ideas on what they look like.
Aside from art and nature, she's also OBSESSED with Christmas but only really brings up her insane Christmas obsession during the Christmas specials. It wouldn't make sense for her to randomly bring up Christmas at her art camp. Shelly also loves to play the tambourine and is usually playing it at her art camp when talking about the art of music.
Every episode of the show's gonna focus on each of the friends, or all of the friends, so we can see what they all act like or what they all do either at home or in Pinespire. Maybe one or more of these friends in this friend group has a rival or a special interest or power. Maybe Shelly gets gifted the power of bringing people together or some shit like that /j..
There's also this royal villain duo who want to destroy Pinespire because it took over their land and/or replaced their land. They also hate whimsy and fun.. They're all about being "logical" or "serious" except for their son, who's this villainous prince but he's not as evil as those 2. He has some goofiness in him, and a soft side, while still keeping a rather cruel or pompous attitude.
The royalty are usually sending their son into the town to try and destroy and/or ruin the place. There are also times where they want their son to try and scare away everyone in the village so they can try and tear it apart that way.. But Shelly and the gang are always obliviously getting in the way.
The friend group shenanigans is gonna probably be the A plot... Meanwhile the prince acting goofy in town, working in literally every store, and failing miserably with his stuff is gonna be the B plot. I'm thinking maybe him getting a new job in every episode could be a running gag. He thinks getting a new job and acting foolish during the job will run people out of the village with how poor the service is. He also thinks it's an easy way to find Shelly and the gang obviously…
This show's gonna be quite simple, but as original as possible y'know? It's still a W.I.P for now as well.. It might get even more original in the future..!
The prince is also probably gonna secretly fall in love with Shelly without telling anyone. He is gonna act like a nervous wreck everytime he sees her but not to the point of the show getting annoying. Another running gag could POSSIBLY be him getting distracted by Shelly every time he's trying to do something villainous... But I feel that'd make people hate the show lmao..
Also... To end this discussion about the prince... He'd probably end up having a soft spot for the village and its people. Instead of instantly having a crush on Shelly, he'd probably slowly grow to have a crush on her without anyone knowing. At first he'd probably wanna try scaring Shelly and her friends out the village so he can destroy it, but then comes to a realization he has a bit of a crush on her and acts like a socially awkward person around her.
Meanwhile... Shelly doesn't even know who he truly is, because he's always in some job outfit every time he's meeting Shelly.. And Shelly thinks he's just some weird man who's failing at everything he's doing, and not some serious threat. Shelly absolutely cannot stand the prince acting like a Pinespire citizen, because she thinks he's absolutely bonkers.
The prince doesn't want to reveal who he is to Shelly, because he's afraid Shelly would know who he is and become absolutely terrified, when in reality Shelly has a secret crush on him as the prince and not him acting like a citizen. Miraculous ladybug ass moment /j
Shelly has a crush on the prince, because she heard about the prince several times on the news, and thought he was really cute. Her friends would tease her about it, in a playful way of course! They'd say things like “imagine if the prince met you in person and fell in love with you”, when that's foreshadowing what happens later.
Shelly is also very well hidden or calm about her crush on him as a prince too.. Not bringing it up much unless it's with her friends.. Also unlike most girls in cartoons crushing hard on men, she isn't even that creepy or obnoxious about it at all. She actually has her limits when it comes to crushing if this makes sense. She KNOWS how obnoxious people can get with their crushes. She's seen it several times before.
Anywho yeah… Shelly crushes on the prince, not knowing that the prince is actually in the town dressed up as random ass workers each time. Shelly hates every one of them and KNOWS for a fact it's some random guy dressed up as a different worker because of how poor his job disguises are.. Like he doesn't look like himself as a prince at least, but he can't come up with a different job disguise as if he only has one set of clothes.
Also yet again.. The simping in this show won't be extreme nor will it be the whole plot of the series... The simping is only a special addition to the show... Adding onto both the prince and Shelly's personality throughout their separate adventures. Plus I'm literally a person who has massive crushes on fictional characters so of course I'm adding this in, don't judge me..! :)
I could see the soundtrack of this show being very fantasyland-like… OR maybe Carousel music could work. Also despite the friend group being based on my closest friends I was thinking of making it a diverse cast..
Also I forgot to mention this.. But the reason why the village is called "Pinespire" is because all the buildings are made of pine wood and look like those fantasy or German buildings. Another reason it's called this is because all the trees surrounding that place are pine trees, and the village's logo would probably be a pinecone..
Or heck maybe the most famous restaurant at that place could be called the pine cone restaurant or something like that..,,
If you're interested and/or want to make it better.. Join this Discord server! :D
There's more info on it there! Hshhsvvsv.,,

Been a bit since I've worked on that Trollan show concept, but it's finally time for the Trollan of the hour! The one the series revolves around, though who knows how weird his copyright status would be if it feasibly was a show!
A nephew. A best friend. A boyfriend. One of the best pupils of the academy. An all around great guy. Orko the Great. Unfortunately, he also has the title of "The Lost Trollan". After the cosmic storm did its damage to the region, a noticeable gap in the community was discovered. An event so rare, that no one was prepared for it, much to the chagrin of people against the Crimson Council. A cosmic storm is a dimensional storm. So he could be anywhere. Sure, as you all know, he ended up in an amazing dimension, where he became privy to a secret, was adopted by a loving family, and has had his life changed amazingly. But Trolla doesn't know that. For all intents and purposes, he's MIA. And where he is now, he still has his staff, which is dwindled now into a broken wand. Not that he could use it anyways, his magic is different here. But he hasn't lost hope. He knows he has friends on both sides now.

Ok random idea for a show (animated or other) but what if you used relevance as a visual thing. Like I know lots of shows use like shaded out background characters to show people are there but irrelevant other than you knowing they're an existence.
But what if you took it further?
Bear with me here ok?
So I've been submerged in the danny phantom fandom lately so I'm gonna use that show as an example:
So in the beginning of the show you see alot of non-reaction from the regular people cause they haven't processed what's actually happening. Later you get good shots of the natural fear creeping in of a ghost attack happening and you see people booking it out of the area for safety. Now crowds are important here cause Danny has an identity to protect so they are shown. Later the specifics of the people goes down as seeing who is there isn't the problem but rather the public setting being the point. But what happens as time goes on and people figure shit out (like not everyone is dumb like in Metropolis and the whole superman thing. Danny only changes volour palette).
This is where things can be fun cause you can separate character pov from viewer pov. Like instead of having vague blobs as people just have the audio: the people themselves aren't relevant so don't put them in frame.
But show the surrounding to change like we can see them.
I.e. show a icecream bobbing as someone lives it in the park. Show the Frisbees in the park. The coffee the office worker just grabbed from a Cafe or food truck, just no people themselves.
But don't make it noticeable. Make that shit like gravity falls subtle. It's all background stuff. Phase it into the show's look till people know something is different but it's just "show aesthetic".
It could look real cool too cause if you have someone rushing through a crowd you can get really creative about how you show it. It looks like an empty street but you can hear the chatter and cars. Them someone bursts forward and suddenly there's these invisible things they hit as they scramble through the street. You see the eyes take in the surroundings you can't see and knock a tray of drinks out of a dudes hands and you suddenly see them perfectly as they get splashed and yell after the person.
But as the shaded out cops chasing the person hits this clear person they disappear again as they become irrelevant again.
Idk it's like 5 am and I haven't slept in a hot second. If I remember I wrote this I might delete it later but give me thoughts.
And if you make anything with this shit tag me in it cause I wanna see
:)

Funny show concept: A person who has been assigned by a god or the universe or whatever to grant wishes, but they are never told this. Every episode starts with some completely random person making a wish, and the universe just throws some problem the wish granters way, and it just so happens that the process of solving the problem always ends up granting the wish, regardless of if the protagonist actually accomplishes their goals or not.
Related ideas for the show:
1. The person chosen to have their wish granted is completely random. One episode it could be a kid whose family has never had more than $10 to their name, the next it could be the in universe equivalent of Jeff Bezos
2. The wishes don’t always align with the protagonists morals. For example, they could be very anti-murder, but one episode their actions accidentally lead to the death of a person who today’s wisher really wanted dead.
3. There has to be at least one episode with an incredibly simple wish that is granted in a really convoluted way. Example:
random wisher of the week: I wish I could see my sister smile again :(
The sister, like an hour later: Hey, did you hear that some random dude took out the organized crime syndicate that was threatening me was just taken down by some rando? How lucky is that :)
4. On the other hand, there has to be an incredibly complicated wish solved comically easy
Scientist: A METEOR IS HURDLING TOWARDS EARTH AND WE LOST THE REMOTE TO ACTIVATE THE DEFENSE SYSTEM! I DONT WANT TO DIE D:
Protagonist, like 10 minutes into the episode: Hey, who left a tv remote on the bus?
5. How the show would handle season finales or just generally “extra important episodes” would be one of their close friends or family make that episodes wish, which might significantly alter the protagonists life as well
6. An episode where a random side characters wish is to date the protagonist. At the end of the episode, it is revealed that this was not the wish that was granted that day, and they end up not together (at least not that episode)

“What if Operation was adapted into a TV show?”, well, you’re about to find out!
For starters, I would have the production of this show handled by the same people who worked on “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic”, “Littlest Pet Shop (2012)” and “Pound Puppies (2010)”. Distribution-wise, I would pick either Universal or Paramount, with worldwide distribution by WildBrain Studios. This also applies to the show’s DVD, Blu-Ray, and Ultra HD Blu-Ray releases by Shout! Factory.
RATING
While “Operation” will still be marketed as a kids’ show, the best thing to do would be to give the series a TV-PG rating. It’s not because it’s got swearing in it (it actually wouldn’t). It’s not because there’s family-unfriendly violence. It’s not because there’s smoking and drinking (Obviously those will send the wrong messages to kids, or cause a controversy.). It’s because in order to be faithful to the board game it’s based on, some scenes will have Cavity Sam torn up in a certain spot so the doctors and nurses working on Sam can extract the funatomy part of the episode out. While it’s still aimed for kids, a “Viewer Discretion is Advised” title card will be put up before every episode.
GENRE: SILLY OR SERIOUS?
Well, I would kind of have it be a bit of both. Sure, it can be silly. But at the same time, have Cavity Sam’s injuries be serious, this way, people who are generally scared of Sam’s nose lighting up feel sorry for Cavity Sam. If you want to, maybe have the first episode be an origin story about why Sam has that red nose on him that lights up and makes that buzzing sound every time he gets physically hurt.
ANIMATION
Like those other three Hasbro shows mentioned above, “Operation” can be done with 2D flash animation. It art direction can be somewhat identical to “Littlest Pet Shop” in a way. In fact, cameos of characters from past Hasbro programs can be shown in the background, but we’ll get to that later.
SETUP
I’m flexible with the series either having one episode taking up a full 30 minutes, or have the series consist of two 11-minute episodes. Either way, each episode focuses on the ailment bugging Sam like the frog in the throat, the Adam’s apple, the bread basket, the water on the knee, and anything else from the classic game itself. In terms of originality, some episodes can have original new funatomy parts created just for this show like brain storm, chicken fingers, twinkle toes.
The series would be about 2 seasons long at best, as the first season would focus solely on Cavity Sam. Season 2 on the other hand can focus on his dog, Rex-Ray, the mascot of 2020′s “Operation: Pet Scan”.
CAST
As I mentioned before in my previous post, I would personally choose Jack McBrayer as the voice of Cavity Sam because I felt his natural speaking voice fits the character perfectly. Other than him, I don’t really know anyone else who would work best. As far as the voices of the doctors, nurses, and other medically trained professionals, you can do what “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” did by allowing North American and Canadian voice talents.
CALL-BACKS
Some of Sam’s funatomy parts from “Operation Brain Surgery” can have episodes too.
Dr. Humerus from the 2008 PC game, “Operation Mania” can appear as either a cameo or supporting character. Who should voice him? I don’t know.
Some of the other doctors and nurses from past box art for the game and its spinoffs can appear too like the female surgeon from 2007′s “Operation Rescue Kit Game” and the male surgeon from 2008′s “Silly Skill Game” version.
CAMEOS
Blythe Baxter from “Littlest Pet Shop” can appear as a silent cameo in some episodes. If Ashleigh Ball ever wanted to reprise her role as Blythe, I’m more than welcome to allow her to.
Other cameos include plush toys and action figures of other Hasbro characters like the ones from “My Little Pony” and “Transformers”.
MUSIC
Daniel Ingram and Steffen Andrews can provide the score for the series, and songs too if you’d like. Though, if the show ever gets any musical numbers, then whatever song they use for the show should be available on CD and Digital with the just the music and pre-recorded voice acting alone.
I don’t know anything else to include, but this is all I can think of for right now.

Spider 🕷️ Some Lore on this Creachure and some info on Forestfolk below:
In the deep woods, where humans rarely wander, live the Forestfolk. Separated into sparse communities, the Forestfolk live untouched by human civilization. Forest communities regularly are in contact with one another, and neighboring communities have very close relationships between each other, despite being kilometers apart. Forestfolk communities have around 100-200 Minifolk. Young people (16-25) will choose a role to apprentice, allowing for a cycle of providers in the community.
From the community of Wander-Past-Meadow, comes Spider. Spider is very athletic, a bit standoffish, and blunt. But, she is a viciously loyal friend and citizen of Wander-To-Meadow, and is quick to draw a blade against the disloyal. She loves to climb, is extremely swift, and always sticks a landing.
Spider is not yet assigned to a post. Right now, she assists her mother, a gardener, and her father, a shopkeeper selling her mother’s greens. She does standard chores, and generally helps with the upkeep of the shop. She cannot seem to grow things like her mother, and her bluntness makes it difficult to sell like her father. Her older brother, who she looks up to highly, is a lead defensive for the community, and wants to follow in his footsteps. She is considering defense, or potentially becoming a traveling representative of Wander-To-Meadow, though she isn't sure how ready she is to leave her family.

Concept
One of those reality shows where someone finds a stray cat, and decides they want it. But then their parent says no bc they're allergic, or whatever, and instead of keeping the cat in a toxic environment where they do not get the space they need nor the care and affection, while possibly putting said parent figure in danger bc of their allergy or trauma related to cats or what have ya, the kid decides to talk to their guardian about other, safer, better options for the cat, and they all live happily ever after. The show is then focused on the kid and their friends opening up a shelter/cafe for stray animals, and how they manage everything
