“Rossiel!”
It took all of Boyd’s restraint not to leap into her arms. Restraint that was abandoned almost immediately as he went for a hug from her. “It’s been a while since we’ve gotten to see each other! How’ve you been?”

The Corinthian really is the Character of all time. He’s a nightmare. He’s gay. He’s a serial killer. He’s a whore. He drives a sick car. He has daddy issues. He can rock a straw boater. I mean could you ask for anything more

Love the headcanon that Neil and Andrew learn Russian to be able to talk with each other without people understanding, but can I also add the fact that what they learn is only the basics and they guess the rest of it. We know that they have a great non-verbal communication, and giving that they are the only ones speaking the language they have no need to be completely fluent on it.
One will throw random words in Russian and the other one will understand based on gestures and the few words. Or they will have so many grammatical errors, but is no problem cause they understand it that way.
And all the foxes assume that is the way the language works, right up until one them (probably Nicky) actually learns Russian and get completely confused, cause what kind of encrypted language are they using with each other?

real talk i think a big reason that the dt17 pulled off the “robot kid is a metaphor for autism” trope so beautifully is because Huey is also very clearly autistic coded. And also because BOYD isn’t robotic, but rather misunderstood and viewed as a threat despite in actuality being a relatively normal, sweet kid who doesn’t get why people treat him the way they do. And that the message isnt “we need to fix him” its “you need to fix the way you look at him”. And also that, again, Huey is autistic coded too and his whole arc that season is literally him struggling with being labeled as “robotic” so his story with BOYD isn’t just a nt boy learning to accept the autistic boy, but rather the autistic boy connecting with another autistic boy and learning there’s not anything wrong with him. Actually ok. My autistic ass has so many thoughts about BOYD and Huey and dt17 i could talk about it for hours. But yea.

Yet another Boyd Drake Propaganda Post from yours truly, specifically for the @eggcrackerbracket​​ tournament this time:
First of all, he’s a robot Pinocchio allusion who decided he was a definitely real boy and then he WAS one. We all know robots and Pinocchio allusions are so trans of gender, and so being both makes him extra trans of gender!
Literally uses the phrase ‘I’m Boyd, a Definitely Real Boy!’ to introduce himself. 🥺🥺🥺
The entirety of Astro BOYD involves him fighting to be seen as a regular boy rather than a killing machine. He even fights against the programming of an evil scientist trying to use him as a weapon and MAKES THE CHOICE to be a real boy. His transgenderism is so strong, he can even fight against evil programming that is trying to control him and WIN.
Astro BOYD as a whole could very well be an allegory for what it’s like to be neurodivergent, in addition to being an allegory for being transgender. Him and Huey Duck are clearly autistic-coded, and the phrase ‘He’s a kid like me, just wired a little differently’ is used. 
They’re also best friends and spend a chunk of the episode taking a tour of furry Tokyo to do research for a shared special interest. (Also I like to imagine it doubles as a date for them, because cute 🥺).
Huey also spends the entire episode reaffirming Boyd’s desire to be seen as a real boy. He’s the best triplet for this reason alone.
Less happy fact about the episode, Boyd’s creator ends up misgendering him as ‘it’ for a spell and reject his claims of being a real boy because of some stuff that happens within the episode. 
But it’s fine because he’s going up to bat for him by the end and his reaffirmation of Boyd’s chosen identity is what ends up saving the day in the end. (Also Gyro is pretty trans-coded himself so we’ll let it slide but it still took me a while to come around on him as a character 😒).
Even before this episode aired, I already had such a soft spot for Boyd. I literally only started watching the show because I saw GIFsets of a previous episode with him, and he was just so PRECIOUS (and gave me Angus McDonald vibes) so I knew I had to watch the show just so I could get to his debut episode. And then Astro BOYD came along and cemented his place as my absolute favorite character in the show, and probably one of my favorite characters of all time.
Anyway I was lightly dipping my toes into a they/them enby identity before this episode dropped, but after months of having Boyd as a comfort character after the episode aired, a LOT of things began to click for me internally. And now here I am, a he/they transmasc with one of my chosen names being Boyd. (Listen I know technically I was already not-cis before that, but he still absolutely played a big part in delivering the final blow to my egg and helping me settle comfortably into a transmasc identity).
Also one final fact; Scrooge McDuck inspired Astro Boy, the first anime character. And then Ducktales made Boyd, an homage to Astro Boy as a whole. So Boyd is technically only a few steps away from the invention of anime. He deserves some respect for that fact alone from those of you who got their egg cracked by an anime character.
Okay I’m done now. Vote for the boy who cracked my egg because he is so polite and sweet and a definitely real boy and he deserves to at least get past round one 🥺🥺🥺
Also also if you want, watch Ducktales 2017 because it’s pretty fun. Or just watch Astro BOYD, because it’s the best episode. Sorry DWD fans, I know where my loyalties lie.
Also ALSO ALSO in case a DT fan who doesn’t know me might ask why I said Boyd DRAKE:

(Okay now I’m really, REALLY done for now, promise. Mainly bc this post is getting super long and I have a few others drafted before the contest has even started. #BOYDSWEEP)

Preview: Speak of the Devil
An Clement Mansell x Bri (ofc) oneshot
Tumblr media
Words: 3,349
Summary: Bri didn’t know what her and Clement were, only that whenever the bastard showed up, it was near impossible to close the door in his face. When she hears he’s intown again, she’s forced to decide if it's time to keep her distance for good, or will she fall for his mischievous charms, like all the times before.
Warnings: sex, Clement is a warning.
An: after thinking about this for days, here we are. We will very likely see them again.
Tumblr media
This is a preview. Read on A03.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Him; her bad habit, her addiction, the erratic constant in her life for the last 6 years; Clement Mansell.
Clement wasn’t her boyfriend, and she was never his girlfriend. What they were existed in this vague lust-filled, nameless space. They were without title, without definition, without sense other than that primal magnetic draw that kept them slamming back into each other like comets in the galaxy.
He came in and out of her life like a bat out of hell, usually rolling into town in some cool vintage car that likely wasn't his, rock music blaring from the speakers, and wearing some variation of a Hawaiian shirt, which he loved for some reason, all the while emitting the aura of a rockstar wanna-be.
Clement was too much yet just the right amount of excitement at the same time. He was a wild card, a beast disguised as a man roaming among the crowd. He had a hold on her stronger than any man ever had before. In some ways, she was ashamed of that, in other ways it thrilled her.
At first glance, Clement Mansell didn’t seem like the type to impact Bri as much as he did. Still, that tall, tattooed, gritty white boy side-swiped her life and she can't shake him, not completely.
Clement was a dirtbag, but he was also fine as hell and charming. He was intrusive, penetrating her thoughts and evoking sensual body memories from their time together at the most inconvenient times.
Dangerous.
Unpredictable.
Wildman and a hustler.
Clement Mansell was many things, and mysterious at the same damn time.
Bri barely knew anything about him, he never talked about his past, or where he came from. And sometimes, she’d even think about his name alone, Clement. How the hell did she get herself so swapped up with a man named Clement?

hc german is kevins comfort language because its the only one riko couldn't use against him and because the people who he holds closest all speak it so it doesn't matter if he can speak it or not he just finds the sounds of it comforting. he doesn't even feel the need to pick up stuff from it he just feels content not knowing anything about it.
