Last night, the realization of why Sketchbook (a ship I was pretty indifferent about when I started drawing art for it) grew on me so fast hit me like a truck, but if I were to just say it, you wouldn't understand as well
Was debating on who'd confess 1st between Hilda and Frida and decided that Frida would if we go with the headcanon that a witch and their familiar share an emotional bond and can sense each other, Hilda would likely not realize Frida's feelings until told. This would be them about age 15. Not 100% on the dialogue since I did this on the fly unlike the other comics but I just had to get this out so I can work on other things
you know I had to bring up my sketchbook kid Mattie for this one. in my mind this is like…impromptu midnight storytime bc someone woke up the entire household and now she’s almost settled no one wants to get up or go back to bed
(Kaisa has become a little more comfortable with openly doing magic by this point, partly because of reconnecting with Tildy in season 2 and partly because no matter how shoddy her spells come out, they never fail to entertain her kids, especially her youngest. Kaisa does the best stories in this house. no child can resist magic floating pictures)
anyway kaisa with hilda after she starts dating johanna or even marries her
either way i don't think hilda would call her mum or smth like, she just doesn't and kaisa respects that. hilda calls her by her name and kaisa calls her 'kiddo' mostly, sorry not sorry.
also kaisa not very much liking anders but understanding he's important to hilda although he did hurt johanna with him leaving and basically being not a great co-parent/partner for most of time. she gives him a chance to be present now and she's not going to ruin it for hilda ((also my perosnal hc that her parents divorced when she was a kid bit it was pretty okayish so kaisa wants hilda to not ever have to hear how one step-parent bullshits on bio parent))
anders would be lowkey awkward with kaisanna happening but he's supportive, i imagine he tells kaisa something like "you're making her happy, i can tell that. she never smiled like this way with me". fight me but i believe johanna met anders in college and she admitted to him during breaking up she just can't feel anything towards men at all (she's a late bloomer lesbian!!!) and he has this "wild" thought that she may be lesbian but thinks that's not it. WELL
although hilda likes kaisa i believe she would have need some time to adjust. yk, it always been her and johanna, now the third one is coming and... hilda wants the best for her mum but she's only a child so it would be natural for her to be a bit battled about this. either way, she absolutely accepts it tho she's probably the last person to understand it, sorry not sorry (frida, david and louise know before her. they just do)
ALSO. johanna not accepting her lesbianism at first but trollberg is apparently pretty supportive place and kaisa definetely takes her to a gay bar. they also holds hands during bird parade they just do
what it johanna and kaisa made a book together. like hilda and co find out kaisa is writing an encyclopedia of magical creatures but needs an illustrator. and hilda's like
"oh! my mum is a great artist, and she's seen lots of magical things before"
and that's when johanna and kaisa meet and they start working on the book. and it starts out professional but they start getting closer as they keep working. and then hilda's really excited because her mum is making a friend and then she realizes her mum has a bit of a crush before even she does and starts trying to hook them up.
and then they need to do field research for reference and oh no! johanna's sleeping bag somehow didn't get packed and now they only have one sleeping bag. it's a good thing they're both mature adults and can handle this situation maturely.

hi hilda fandom!! here is what i drew for @waddles-ex-machina's birthday 🥰 based on her adorable sketchbook baby au and our dumbass joke about kaisa being the daughter of imodna cr (the 2 characters in this pic u probably dont recognize dshjhfh)
i also made a ts4 family based on this au, theyre below if you wanna see them
mattie is missing bc she hasnt been born yet :') johanna is currently busy being a werewolf and dealing with her rebellious werewolf daughter, and kaisa is raising money for her and johanna's wedding (theyre engaged!!) by being an independent writer!!! excuse the mismatched colors of their outfits, this is the best i could do with what ts4 offered me 😔
bonus pics from when kaisa was a fighty lil kid but her mum always knew how to calm her and make her feel better :') i love them ur honor
