CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR FIONA & CAKE EPS 1-8
okay first let’s talk about human marshall lee.
what do we know about him from eps 1-8 Adventure Time: Fiona & Cake?
black leather jacket
mommy issues™️
from rich family that he doesn’t agree with
doesn’t want to be his family’s heir
mother only accepts him if he fits into a certain mold
plays guitar (popular sirius hc)
“bad boy” who secretly grew up rich
cares very deeply about the people he loves (which are not his biological family)
punk rock fashion and attitude
talkative and fairly outgoing
shorter than gary
obviously, most of what we know about younger sirius is based off of headcanons but marshall seems like such a sirius variant.
now onto to gary prince-
sweaters, jackets and scarves dressed very cozily
old man energy
very dedicated to his work (like remus with academic validation)
ambitious
over-thinker to the max
often lost in his own little world
fantasy as escapism
creates in depth stories and lore (writer remus is a widely accepted hc)
introverted but still stands up for his beliefs
has a nighttime secret (sneaking into the bakery)
broke
quick temper
tall n lanky
nerd
he is so AU remus
now moving onto their dynamic together- so many scenes between them could easily be applicable to wolfstar.
figure 1. punk (also flirting)
figure 2. marshall wanting to know all about gary’s special interest/writing
figure 3. comforting over mommy issues
figure 4. gary pulling (saving) marshall from his manipulative mother
there were so many scenes that just made me feel like i was reading a wolfstar fanfic. the way marshall listens to gary and tries to help him achieve his dreams, even though he doesn’t have many concrete ambitions of his own, and the way gary protects and comforts marshall lee screams wolfstar. additionally, the archetypes marshall and gary fall into are very similar to the archetypes that sirius and remus fall into, which consequently creates a similar relationship dynamic.
tldr: marshall lee and gary prince are a wolfstar variant because they’re literally AUs of each other.
edit credits for the screen caps used: (these edits helped me to realize just how similar they are to wolfstar)

Betty Grof
I don't think we discuss enough just how tragic Betty Grof is as a character.
We always talk about post finale but brush over everything else. I think we focus too much on its effect on Simon, but what about Betty?
She gave up her ambitions to be with Simon, just through them right out the window, and he didn't even really notice.
Fiona and Cake ep 8 spoilers
Betty gave up her first chance of exploring petroglyph in the Outback to help Simon, whom she barely knew yet. Which was all fine and dandy, but then after his expedition and after they went separate ways, he finds her note he spoke about. He stops her from leaving on her own expedition again. Yes, they have a romantic , beautiful moment, but she just gave up everything for him. She spends the rest of her life for Simon. He could have joined her expedition like she joined his, but now her life is, Help Simon research these ancient magical items, help Simon not die, Help Simon stop being Ice King, Help Simon, Protect Simon. Simon.
Her life is Simply Simon, and she gave up everything. Her ambitions, her sanity, her life, and body.
I know he loves her so much, but I don't think he ever noticed how much she just gives up or sacrifices for him. Well, not until Ooo. Where things were much more noticeable.
It's sad she never even realized it was a problem, even when it was shoved in her face (Temple of Mars, I think is the ep) she refuses to see she hasn't been living for herself for a long time and she's been obsessed. But when told she should work on herself and better herself, she just wants to save Simon even more.
Her character is just so sad. She sacrifices everything and never thinks to take care for herself. For, her life is Simon.

Fiona finally understanding why Simon didn't want to be ice king anymore, how much it hurt him and his relationships, then trying to protect him and stop him from putting on the crown 😭😭😭
