Question for the op: I've heard you say things like 'secondary cast' and somethings like that. So im xurious as to like who is considered primary and secondary? Is there like a tier list?
Ooooooh, this is a very good question! Well!
(I've had a vague idea of what my "classifications" are for a while now, but here's my "official" rankings)
Primary Cast: The Koopalings and Broodals. Most asks are sent to, and the majority of the storylines, revolve around them. They are the "main characters" of the blog.
Secondary Cast: Sort of supports the Primary Cast. Mostly made up of their partners. (Plessie, Koops, Peasley, Motley, Nabbit, Pom, etc.) Also includes "important" parent characters, like Persephone, Mauve, Beef, & Kaley!
Primary & Secondary Cast Members are almost all considered "main characters." (Just, some are slightly more important than others)
Tertiary Cast: Pretty much all parent characters minus really important people like the ones listed above. (Does not include non-present characters) Also includes non-askable side characters, such as Plessie's crush, Spewart's therapist, and all of Iggy's nameless exes. Also includes pets! (Winston, Nibbles, Needles, etc.)
Forbidden Cast: Includes all "non-present parents." Whether they be dead (Alphonse, Clawdia, Venus, Harley) abandoned their kids (Peach, Discord) or are simply "not around" (Haru, Bonnie)
PLEASE NOTE: Although Bowser isn't really in his kids' life, he still lives with them and still appears from time to time, so he is considered Tertiary.
Potential Cast: Just characters that I've drawn and am considering using, but are not "officially" on the blog yet. As of right now, this only includes Cackletta, Fawful, and Mimi. Almost ALL of the Secondary members were once in the Potential cast list, but eventually made an official appearance. You can also call this the "Limbo Stage."
Here is some of the characters still in their Limbo Stage.
i love watching your Broodals interact it's like a more chaotic Sonic Underground with more intense sibling bickering 😭 (VERY MUCH A COMPLIMENT BTW i just cannot give normal compliments)
What are Peasley's thoughts on Mauve and his mom being a couple? I know that children who enherrit new step parents tend to have issues with change in family dynamic and inadequacy. Is anything interesting happening?
"I just started thinking about... Worrying about... Things I've never thought before...!"
Topper: "You got diabetes, dude!! You can't just go around, eating fast food whenever!!"
Rango: "But-"
Spewart: "Wait, didn't you get Burger King for lunch, Rango?"
Rango: "Yeah? So...?"
Hariet: -_- "I thought you said you took a health class last year!!!"
Rango: "I did!!! I just, never passed... What does this have to do with anything??"
Rango: "What?? Ewwww!!!"
Spewart: "You can handle a fruit salad, can't you?"
Rango: "I mean, I gueeeeess. But still, why can't we get McDonald's?? It's gooood!"
Topper: "Because, that shit is gonna kill you. You need healthy stuff every now and then, unless you don't want to live long enough to see your nieces and nephews graduate! Do you want that?? To be "that one uncle who shall not be mentioned" at family gatherings due to tragically passing away in his teen years before he could accomplish anything meaningful in life??"
Rango: ".............................."
Hariet: "... Dang, Topper-"
Topper: "It's true!!! Rango, you could totally just die in your sleep tonight. It could happen any night! You are sooo fucking lucky and unlucky at the same time! There's a reason we aren't letting you eat goddamn McDonald's right now!!! Even if you don't give a shit, I won't stand for it!! WE won't stand for it! Either accept the salad, or I will shove it down your throat while Hariet and Spewart pin you down."
wait, why/how does Spewart have purple insides if neither of his parents do? Do their grandparents have it?
Spewart: "I honestly have no clue. My condition is super rare, though... Roughly one in a million. Not much is known about it. So, whether it's inherited or completely random is unknown..."
"While on the subject, I do wonder if the purple insides thing has any link to my stomach issues! It may seem random, but I do remember one time, many years ago, I believe I was on a bus or something, and I saw someone else with the condition! How did I know they had it, you ask? Because they threw up on the ground and it was bright hecking purple, that's how. (Maybe they were just getting car-sick from riding the bus, but... Who knows? Maybe they also had CVS!!)"
"Hm... You might be wondering if this "purple condition" has any affect on my body besides making stuff purple. And the answer is, not really. I mean, my blood type is very rare, so if I got hurt and needed a transfusion, I'd be screwed. But minus that, I'm like a completely normal person!!... There is one other thing- Again, not much is known, but the chemical (I forgot the name) that makes my insides purple in the first place happens to contain molecules identical to that in fructose. Orrr something like that? Sooo, everything inside me tastes sweet! Not super, overwhelmingly sweet like candy... More like... Fruit Loops! A mild, sugary taste. Ain't that neat? And kinda gross...? But mostly neat?"
Broodals, have you ever gone on a hike in the forest?
Hariet: "Yes, of course!! Believe it or not, all four of us are big fans of the outdoors!! It's not just Rango! We go camping and hiking and all kinds of things like that every year!! I'm excited to see what we'll get up to this Summer!!"
"Back when we lived in the Mushroom Kingdom, there was a real great hiking trail not far from our house! Hm... Ooh!! Here's an old picture of us on it!! This is from... Three years ago, I believe?"
I feel like Rango has worn, just, a LOT of sweaters/sweater vests in his life. Anyway- Can we see him in one of these?
Drawing Rango in sweaters is pretty fun! (There's just something about skinny characters that's fun to draw clothes like that on!) But I definitely enjoy drawing the fancy, collared shirt with puffy ass sleeves more.
EEEEEVEN THOUGH I feel like it doesn't fit his personality as much. Rango would definitely wear one of these unironically-
AAAAAAA I WISH I'D SEEN AND REBLOGGED THIS SOONER!!! I love it!!! They're so CUTE!!!
Because @thekoopalingsandstuffs recently made a design for the Broodals' father, I just decided to quickly doodle him awkwardly shaking hands with the "dad design" I made.
Y'all- I just showed up to my homeroom class. (which happens to be my school's JROTC room)
I knew they had an Xbox in here for their flight simulator game thingy. But today, I happened to see-
THEY HAVE A WII IN HERE TOO?!
And they play the pilot games on Wii Sports Resort to "simulate flight," I guess?? Lmaooooo- A whole ass Wii console just for that. I don't know why I find it so funny-
