"i'm not being serious, it's just satire!" "it's not satire if it's indistinguishable from the thing it claims to satirize!" actually it's only satire if it
is written in dactylic hexameter
primarily concerns everyday topics
contains elaborate intertextual references to both epic poetry and other genres

One of the more strange but interesting palette swaps in SkullGirls is one for Eliza of Sora from Kingdom Hearts III specifically.
Tumblr media
Her partners Horace and Albus are colored to look like Donald and Goofy
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Her parasite Sekhmet is colored to look like a Shadow Heartless
Tumblr media
And even the heart shaped crest on her chest uses the same color as the Heartless insignia.
Tumblr media
I love the attention to detail they put into the making of this game.

Thank you for answering. May I request a MPHfPC x male reader?
Maybe just hcs on a few of the children/teens reacting to teenage reader joining their home. Maybe some reactions to his peculiarity? Peculiarity is that the reader can turn into a deer? Thank you again, and take your time!
Hey! Thanks for you request and patience, I know I took an eternity to write this, but I hope you like it! Have a great day :)
MPHFPC characters x male! Peculiar! Reader
Headcanons
Summary: some Headcanons about the peculiar children and teens, and how would they react at the arrival of a new peculiar boy, whose peculiarity is turning into a deer.
Word count: 988
Characters: Enoch O’Connor, Jacob Portman, Emma Bloom, Olive Abroholos, Millard Nullings, Horace, Fiona, Bronwyn Bruntley, Claire Densmore, Hugh
MPHFPC Masterlist
General Masterlist
Enoch O'Connor
Enoch had always been a skeptical boy, he would initially be dismissive of Y/N's peculiar ability, considering it impractical in the peculiar world.
As Y/N spends more time with the other peculiar children, Enoch's curiosity is piqued, and he reluctantly starts observing the new boy's transformations into a deer.
Enoch would be eventually jealous about Y/N being more liked than him by the others, but that would change the moment they start to become friends.
Over time, Enoch could warm up to Y/N as they bond over shared experiences and the challenges of being peculiar.
Y/N's ability to transform into a deer could become really helpful, and Enoch might reluctantly admit its usefulness, even if he doesn't express it openly.
Enoch, known for his dark sense of humor, might tease Y/N about his deer form, adding a touch of playfulness to their interactions in their home.
Despite his tough exterior, Enoch may secretly appreciate having another peculiar around, specially since Y/N is a teenager, not a child, and they can openly talk about their thoughts and feelings.
Jacob Portman
Jacob, having experienced the peculiar world and its wonders, would be fascinated by Y/N's ability to transform into a deer, finding it a unique and beautiful peculiarity.
Y/N's arrival would remind Jacob of when he arrived at Miss Peregrine’s house, making him eager to help the newcomer adjust and feel welcome among the other children.
Given Jacob's empathetic nature, he would likely be one of the first to befriend Y/N, offering him help and sharing stories of his own experiences as a newcomer in Miss Peregrine's peculiar household.
Jacob might express curiosity about the specifics of Y/N's deer transformations, asking questions about control, duration, and whether there are any challenges or side effects associated with the peculiar ability.
As Y/N and Jacob spend more time together, their friendship could deepen, and Jacob might even find creative ways to incorporate Y/N's deer form into their daily activities.
Jacob's experience in the peculiar world could be a source of comfort for Y/N, helping him feel more at ease and accepted in his new home.
Emma Bloom
Emma, had always had a fiery and assertive personality, she would be both intrigued and amused by Y/N's ability to transform into a deer. She might playfully nickname him "Bambi" just to get a rise out of him. (Enoch would probably do the same).
Emma's initial reaction might involve a raised eyebrow and a smirk, but deep down, she would appreciate having a new peculiar around, not that she would get tired of the other children, but change it’s always good in a life like hers.
She would definitely make the new boy help her saving the squirrel, because Enoch would be too jealous of the new arrival to even go out of his room.
Emma, being protective of her family, would likely keep a watchful eye on Y/N initially, ensuring he feels welcomed and included in Miss Peregrine’s household, and she would also make sure Y/N was being honest with them.
Even if she is normally serious and even strict, she may surprise Y/N with moments of genuine kindness and friendship, forming a unique bond with the new arrival over time.
Olive Abroholos
Olive, with her sweet and gentle demeanor, would be the first to approach Y/N, fascinated by his ability to transform into a deer. She'd find his peculiarity enchanting and see the beauty in his deer form.
Y/N's deer form could become a source of joy for Olive, who might request him to transform into a deer to hang around or just because she likes to caress him when he’s a deer.
Olive's kindness and warmth would help Y/N feel welcomed and accepted among the others, specially around Enoch, who at first wouldn’t make Y/N feel at ease at the household.
She would probably even help them become friends, by making them both spend time with her so they can put their differences apart
The two might have serene moments together, with Olive enjoying the tranquility of Y/N's deer form, perhaps even sharing quiet moments in the garden or woods.
Olive's lighter and more carefree attitude could bring out a playful side in Y/N, and the two might engage in innocent, imaginative games.
Y/N's arrival could even serve as a calming presence for Olive, especially during moments when her own peculiarity might be overwhelming. The contrast in their abilities could create a harmonious balance.
Horace
Horace would have dreamt about Y/N’s arrival days before he arrived, so he wouldn’t be surprised at his peculiarity or arrival, but still would be curious about him.
As they become friends, Horace would trust Y/N with his visions and dreams.
Fiona
Fiona would like having Y/N around a lot, since she thinks he’s closer to nature because of his ability to turn into an animal.
She would ask him to help her with her gardening activities.
Bronwyn Bruntley
Bronwyn would definitely love Y/N’s peculiarity since she likes animals and nature.
She would probably see Y/N as if he was Victor, and become very attached to him quickly.
Claire Densmore
Just like Bronwyn, she would get quickly attached to him.
She would ask him to turn into a deer just because she likes animals.
Hugh
Hugh would be pretty surprised at another peculiar whose ability has to do with animals.
He would feel kind of understood by Y/N, even though he couldn’t turn into an animal like him, he had a special bond with bees, just like Y/N with deers.
Millard
Millard would also quickly befriend Y/N, and he would be a great friend.
He and Y/N would talk for hours about everything, Millard is a great person to talk to.
Im so sorry if this is not what you expected, it’s my first time writing headcanons and I wasn’t sure how to do it :,)

“Happy the man, and happy he alone, he who can call today his own: he who, secure within, can say, Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today. Be fair or foul, or rain or shine the joys I have possessed, in spite of fate, are mine. Not Heaven itself, upon the past has power, but what has been, has been, and I have had my hour.” Horace, Odes

In the 1300s Dante Alighieri wrote the Divine Comedy, in which he's led through hell by one of his heroes, the Roman poet Virgil.
In the fourth chapter of this book Dante meets four other heroes of his: Homer, Horace, Ovid, and Lucan. They, together with Virgil, tell Dante how good of a poet and writer he is, and how honoured they are to be able to meet him.
So.
Please remember this if you ever feel guilty about writing self-indulgent fanfiction, okay? 😉
