I will never be over how good Leo and Hueso’s dynamic is and how both of them get so much out of having the other in their lives.
In Leo’s case, he gains that older male figure in his life that he is willing to trust and lower his walls for. He gains a confidant where he has none elsewhere, too busy keeping up his many masks with his family to ever consider showing them his true thoughts. He gains an authority figure who is willing to hear him out, no matter how reluctant said figure initially appears.
In Hueso’s case, Leo’s direct involvement in the skeleton’s life has undoubtedly benefited Hueso so unbelievably well. For one, it’s Leo’s choice to ask Hueso for help finding his brothers that ultimately leads to the clearing of Hueso’s Hidden City ban. Then, it’s Leo and Mikey that Hueso brings on to help him with two mob bosses, ending with the bosses no longer being a problem for Hueso. And of course, through Leo’s decision to come to Hueso for advice and later the slider’s insistence that Hueso try to make up with his brother, Hueso’s estranged relationship with Piel is finally mended.
Sure, Leo causes no small amount of strife and damages to Hueso’s business and person, and Hueso is often annoyed by and speaks callously to Leo, but there’s a reason Leo feels comfortable enough to continue going to Hueso, and there’s a reason Hueso ultimately always hears Leo out.
They really do end up feeling like a nephew and uncle, don’t they?

A bunch posts ago I said Kenny is kinda part latino and never elaborated sooo
His mother is latina, specifically from Paraguay (like my best friend :D), but she and her brother moved to South Park when she was really young so she doesn't practically have an accent
However, she does speak in Spanish when talking to her parents (her brother doesn't talk to them, but she does) and to her brother
Kenny was mainly raised in English, but he forced himself to understand some words in Spanish as a little kid so he could understand his mother when she's talking to her family
When Kenny was about five, Carol's brother died (of old age they said, but really he got AIDS), but he lived with the McCormick's up until then. As he refused to learn English, Kenny also had to understand him in the very few times they would talk
Between his parka covering him and the cold weather, Kenny's skin looks like a white kid's, but if it was warmer and sunnier he'd tan really quick
Kenny can't form coherent sentences in Spanish too well, but he can understand almost everything in Spanish, mainly if it's with Paraguay accent (and he also knows a couple words in Guaraní, but it's a really hard language so that's it)
When he ended up at Mexico (S4 E10, "Probably"), he at first didn't understand anything because he wasn't used to listening to people talk to him in Spanish (as the one who mainly did it was his uncle) and less to the Mexican accent, but eventually he managed to communicate enough to get himself and Cartman out of there
Some of his favorites bands in Spanish are El Cuarteto De Nos (mainly El Cuarteto Tapicero) and Skimales (principally because of Atropellando Viejas and Ploma, La Gallina En Coma)
Also, when he watched Terrance & Phillip: Asses On Fire, he looked up the Spanish version of Uncle Fucka, and it didn't disappoint (as a Spanish person, it really slaps more than the original)
He will insult people in Spanish (there's so many Spanish swear words it's fucking awesome), and if they ask what it means he'll just say "gilipollas" means "handsome" or something like that XD

(Edit: fixed some grammar mistakes)
Uh Human Toppins
The Mushroom is named Milo
The Tomato is named Tammy
The Cheese is named Chesterfield (Chester)
The Sausage is named Samual (Sam)
And The Pineapple is named Perry
And some Young Gustavo and Peppino drawings (+ Noise)
Gustavo is 24
Peppino 22
And Noise is 21
(May add more characters but idk yet)
Also added more info below
In my headcannon, Gustavo used to be a thief and often scammed people out of their money
He sometimes even teamed up with Noise to steal others stuff and sell it on the streets
Him and Peppino were roommates and didn’t get along at first but the two grew close and became best friends
Gustavo took a lot of stuff as a joke and wasn’t serious about most things
Peppino soon started to attend a military program the school had and was soon drafted into an actual military camp
Him and Gustavo still kept in touch over phone, Peppino would tell him how military camp was going and Gustavo would tell Pep how school was going
This continued until someone at campus finally called the police and told them someone has been stealing stuff from other people’s room and scamming them
The Police searched campus and arrested Gustavo
Noise didn’t get caught because he hid most of the stolen stuff in Gustavo’s room
Gustavo tried to tell the police that Noise was involved to but no one believed him because the students said that he was a complete lier plus Noise was a jokester and no one would think he would actually steal
Peppino didn’t know Gustavo was in jail and started to worry when he didn’t get any calls from him
Pep didn’t even have anytime to call anymore because there was a war starting
After the war Peppino wasn’t the same, he became more paranoid, had a short temper and was really aggressive
Years later Gustavo was let out of prison and tried to get back in contact with Peppino
And he did but not in the way he expected
He saw paper around the city saying “now hiring”
And would you look at that, it says Peppino’s Pizzeria, Gustavo of course took the paper and called someone to drive him to the location
Peppino greeted him, before he realized who he was, Gustavo was then hugged by Pep and the two started to catch up on what happened in each others life
They became close again
(Also Gustavo did get the job)

let's all say thank you Between Us for giving us brothers who love each other and interact with each other in a realistic way.
Thank you for Waan and Wiew fighting in an episode and cuddling in another.
Thank you for Win calling Waan for advice one episode and then giving back the same support in another.
Thank you for Wiew being silly and happy to be around Win in an episode and then angrily standing up to their father to try protecting Waan in another.
Their interactions feel real because they actively influence each other and it adds incredible depth to the characters, and it's beautiful to see three brothers be allowed to be loving and supportive

moved yesterday and the most infuriating experience of my life was taking apart an entire bedframe manually & bruising my knuckles because I didn't have the right tool, taking apart fridges and shelves with an axe and being able to carry just the same amount of boxes and furniture as the guys my mom hired and still having people insist I carry the small things because I'm „such a tiny girl"
I cant put into words how invalidating it is to be physically strong enough and standing right next to someone yelling „I need a man down here to carry this" (I did it anyways)
I have carried everything for my family up to yesterday, worked with tools in a workshop for six months, lift weights & rebuilt our furniture and somehow ppl still treated me like a toddler simply because I am a woman.
That really hit me, no matter how much strength and effort you put into things, everyone is still somehow able to overlook it just because you were afab. I‘m very much tired of trying to prove myself despite gender.

In the last scene in thanks to them, after flapjack sacrifices himself and hunter wakes up, you can. Like. FEEL luz's guilt. As soon as she's sure hunter is alive luz immediately removes herself from the situation. While camilla willow and gus are helping hunter up and checking that he feels okay, luz shuts her eyes and walks away from the group. She refuses to face her friends until they have to go to HER. Even before that, when the gang watched belos go through the portal, everyone else's expressions were of fear. But luz's expression was of resignation and determination.
She cant bear be around hunter. She cant even stand to look at him. Not when she blames herself for what happened to him and flapjack. Hunter would never blame luz for anything, but luz has a habit of taking every event that tangentially relates to her and twisting it to fit her self loathing. If she had helped look for belos better, maybe hunter wouldnt have gotten possessed. If she hadnt teleported to grab belos, maybe flapjack wouldnt have been close enough to get caught. We the audience know luz couldnt have stopped belos, but to her is just another item in her long list of mistakes.
Judging by her expression when hunter comes up to talk to her, luz is HORRIFIED at the new scars that belos gave him. (That she "let" belos give him) And i cant help but wonder how this new guilt is going to eat at her for the next two episodes. On top of the belos thing, the guilt she likely still has about leaving her mom and everything that happened with eda in the s1 finale, and everything with king, now one of her best friends (and family member she said shed protect!) has lost his palisman because of her. Every time luz looks at hunter shell be reminded of how he was hurt because of what she thinks are her mistakes.
Idk if theyll explore this in depth or even mention it because luz already feels really guilty about everything else and thats already going to take the whole finale to unpack. But this is one more thing for luz to tear herself up over and i cant wait to see how that goes
