Okay, so maybe I’m late to the party and everyone else already figured this out, but-

Of course Workin’ Boys strikes a chord with Ted. It’s the story of a man who drifted apart from people he was extremely close friends with in college that he had (or so it’s HEAVILY implied) unspoken romantic feelings for.

"Oh... no. No, never! (...) No, no, we've never dated. No, there's no need to be jealous."

--Sarah (Mayko Nguyen) to Micheal (Andrew Bushell), when he wonders whether she and Charlie (John Reardon) are exes because they "were so in sync at the casino"!

It's true they are not (sigh!) exes, but both Rex (Diesel vom Burgimwald) and I reckon the lady doth protest too much!

Breakdowns of How I Characterize the Koopalings

Ludwig:

“Classy”, grandiose and insufferably smug. Unlike Larry, you cannot convince Ludwig he isn’t hot shit, no matter what you do. After Iggy, Ludwig is the best at plotting and since Iggy keeps his schemes to himself more often than not, Ludwig usually plays the mastermind in the Koopalings plans. (Ironically, Iggy is the one whose plots are generally built on self-interest. Ludwig is more likely to scheme for the goals of the Koopalings and Koopa Kingdom as a whole— just as long as everyone is clear it was HIS brilliant idea.)

Ludwig loves the classical arts, the sciences and anything else that will reinforce his belief of being smarter and more cultured than the other Koopalings. He sees himself as their leader and essentially he is— not because they respect him more, but because he is the one most interested in actual conquest and warfare, so when Bowser gives them an assignment Ludwig is usually the one who takes the initiative to make a plan and assign all the others different tasks. Ludwig can often be found sequestered away somewhere playing music, painting, tending to his Piranha Plant garden or otherwise looking pretentious and unbothered.

Lemmy:

Silly and fun-loving, not particularly evil. Pretty content to go along with whatever the objective of his family is. Of the Koopalings, he’s the most likely to be friendly with the Mario Brothers/not DIRECTLY injure them/defect from Bowser. However, this isn’t necessarily because he believes in the cause of GOOD, but just because he’s more concerned with his own entertainment than any particular ideology or group (not in like a “mwahaha you are all my toys” way, but in a way where he kinda treats everything like a fun little game and just doesn’t seem super concerned with the consequences of anything). Lemmy surrounds himself with games, toys and amusements. He’s something of a G-rated hedonist.

Roy:

Stereotypical bully. Gets a kick from violence, thinks he’s really cool, always seems to be in that bully mood where they’re wearing a mean smile because they’re at the top of the food chain but they also seem really angry.

Though he has the capacity to be high energy and DOES like beating people up, Roy’s also kinda lazy, preferring to intimidate others into doing the hard work for him while he kicks his feet up (unless his pride is on the line). He will not charge into battle like Morton or desperately try to prove himself like Larry. Forcibly enrolled in night school by Kamek to try and whip him into shape (but he’ll act like it was his own idea when it makes him look good).

Iggy:

Manic, sadistic, always giggling with the kind of laugh that makes it seem like he knows (or thinks he knows) something you don’t. Like something bad is going to happen, and you could avoid it if you knew about it, but Iggy is deliberately keeping it to himself. Very cunning, probably plotting at any given moment, but no one ever knows for sure (Lemmy is the only one who generally is party to Iggy’s plans, but he doesn’t tell anyone because it’s fun to watch the fallout after).

He and Ludwig both have a passion for mechanical engineering. Iggy is actually a BETTER, more innovative inventor than Ludwig, but (being generally more secretive and enigmatic) he’s not as much of a show-off about it, so Ludwig usually ends up presenting himself with a more blatant “technology” motif (although it’s mostly stuff he didn’t actually make, like Bob-ombs, Mechakoopas and airships). Iggy’s stuff often has more of a “scavenged” or “cobbled-together” look than Ludwig’s, but where Ludwig gets by on only innate affinity, Iggy has actual honed skill and study, meaning the machinery he creates is usually more diverse and technically impressive. He just tends to keep it to himself. (Iggy’s equivalent to Ludwig’s natural-but-unhoned talent for technology is his skill in taming animals— particularly Chain Chomps).

Iggy’s also just kinda weird. He wanted a “cheese hotel”.

Wendy:

Greedy. Also a bit vain, which partly contributes to the greed— she wants baubles and pretty, shiny things. Wendy has a taste for glitz, glamour, and secret hordes of gold and jewels. Her aesthetic ostentatiousness is similar to Ludwig’s, but Wendy usually goes for a more flashy, white-marble-sculptures, “art deco” or “fancy hotel/casino” vibe, while Ludwig leans towards “sprawling Gothic manor/castle”.

Wendy’s also somewhat short-tempered. “Angry” is not her default, but she does appear to get mad more easily than most of her brothers (save Morton). Seems constantly annoyed (at best) or infuriated (at worst) with the “fools” around her, thinks she knows better. Bit of a mean girl.

Morton:

Like Roy, Morton is kind of a brute. The difference is that Morton is more brash and temperamental/doesn’t “play it cool” as much as Roy. Roy always seems angry, but there’s also a hint of smugness. Like he’s not TOO concerned, because he already knows he’s better than you. Morton definitely comes off as a lot more invested in his battles/genuinely fully INFURIATED by his foes— Roy is violent because it’s fun, Morton is violent because he’s easily angered to the point of violence. He’s also more likely to charge into battle without thinking (it’s not exactly that Roy is more tactical, just more lazy). Not a big smiler or joker.

Although he is deeply devoted to his family (and NO ONE else), Morton is not SPINELESS. Matter of fact, he is incredibly stubborn and no stranger to arguments with his siblings (mostly Roy). Morton never backs down from anything— he may move slowly, but once he starts, he can’t be stopped. Not really STUPID… but not really smart, either. (Morton is a bit insecure about seeming dim-witted, and sometimes sits in on Roy’s night classes. He’s still only really of average intelligence and lets his temper lead him into situations without giving them as much thought as he perhaps ought to, but he CAN recite long passages of the textbooks and lectures from memory at breakneck speed. Roy uses it to cheat on tests and essays.)

Larry:

Like a snarky, annoying 90s protagonist who thinks he’s hot shit (very easily angered by the implication that he is not hot shit— he’s got something to prove). Into sports. Larry is deeply envious of anyone in the Koopa Troop who gets more respect or recognition than him, intensely desires Bowser’s approval and tries to scheme against his siblings to get it about as often as he schemes against the Mario Brothers. His siblings tolerate it because his machinations are always excruciatingly obvious and unsuccessful. Despite his rank-climbing ambitions, though, Larry is not a suck-up. He has JUST enough dignity to avoid that. Claims he is the leader of the Koopalings. All the rest either say Ludwig is or that they don’t have one. (Wendy says she SHOULD be the leader, but not that she IS.)
