More head-canons/analysis thingys

Luisa and Mirabel have a really great and sweet relationship. Luisa seems genuinely very kindhearted and like she takes her role as big sister seriously. She also doesn’t treat her differently for having no powers.

When she gets in the way of Luisa, she responds with “careful sis”, unlike Isabela who responds with an angry “what is your problem!?”

And unlike Isabela who is jealous and thinks Mirabel has it easy, Luisa is never seen showing that kind of attitude despite being probably one of the most overworked Madrigal, to the point of being compared to a mule (beast of burden).

The one time we see her yell at Mirabel, she apologizes immediately saying “uh, wow… sorry, that snuck out there”, showing that she almost never gets angry at Mirabel, if ever.

In Surface Pressure she tells Mirabel to give her burdens to her and Mirabel smiles for a split second (while Luisa worries about things that will hurt Mirabel). They also don’t have the kind of animosity that Maribel had with Isabela at the start.

And finally, I mean… look at this 🥺

Mirabel looks so uncertain, I’m wondering if they forgot her again but Luisa noticed and dragged her into the photo.

I hope if a series comes out we will get to explore this dynamic more.

Why are you so precious yet very reckless and stupid?!

Tessa 100% joined that trend where they show their dogs or cats various things for no reason, but with her drones.

“Showing my drones various things they’ve never seen before!!”

Cut to clips of her shoving her wallet in N’s face. He just looks confused as heck and pats the top of the wallet a few times with a confused smile.

Handing J an ear of corn. J slowly taking it, looking at it in confusion, then looking back up at Tessa and holding the ear of corn up back to her with a confused expression.

Holding V under the arm pits and showing her the insides of the cupboards. She’s not even awake, she’s in sleep mode and Tessa dosen’t realize it.

Rec sheets for an A.U of mine- I did the Tawnypelt bloodline cuz one of the AU protagonists is Shadowsight. Should I do Rootspring’s bloodline next since he’s another AU protagonist, or should I do somebody else’s?-

[crosses are not religious! This AU is set in a world where Vampire’s exist and are dangerous, so the cats wear crosses on their collars in order to protect their necks from bite- other supernaturals also exist, hence why Dovewing and Lightleap are listed as Harpy’s and why Shadowsight’s listed as a werewolf-]

Credit to @kuruthecyanserval for getting me stuck on the idea of little baby disassembly drones.

These tiny little wiggly babies that can only make the cutest little mewing sounds.

Their claws are so tiny and useless. Their teeth are hardly big enough to bite through an apple. No tails yet, they slowly devolve those later as they get bigger and bigger.

Once they begin to get their tails in and those tails are at a certain length it’s vital to begin carrying them by the tail or hanging them up by the tail to strengthen the tail and help the disassembly pup get used to using their tails.

The babies began to become bitey, they begin itching to use those new fangs and hunting instincts. Extremely high energy and on the constant hunt.

New born disassembly drones have an odd cap like material over their fangs as they grow in. After those fangs have fully dropped that cap falls or breaks off.

Disassembly drones are more than often born in litters of 2. Of course they have their eyes open and come out as small pills like worker drones. After they transcend that pill form they resemble a newborn puppy much like worker drones. The major immediate difference is the size, disassembly drone pups are much bigger than worker drone pups and possess the headband eyes

Okay, so, I know I have literally not posted anything else, but-

gotta question for Yall, have yall ever heard or seen stuff of the Lizzy/Thad/Doll/V ship?- because i honestly ship it, but haven’t seen so much as a crumb of it anywhere, so im kinda sad that my rare pair hell ship has no representation, and I’m beginning to get worried, as very, very near impossible as it is, that I might have accidentally created the ship, even if I really doubt it-

so if you do ship this ship/have seen it somewhere, could you let me know?-

They ended up sharing the towel

I feel like if humans didin’t die and Tessa got to grow up she would be like Steve Irwin for drones

Note: everyone is entitled to their own opinion. No I am NOT telling people to abandon said and use these. Yes I understand that said is often good enough, but sometimes you WANT to draw attention to how the character is speaking. If you think adding an action/movement to your dialogue is 'good enough' hate to break it to you but that ruins immersion much more than a casual 'mumbled'. And for the last time: this is just a resource list, CALM DOWN. Hope that covers all the annoyingly redundant replies :)
