Mark my words, for Halloween next year I will be lilly from lilly's purple plastic purse bc this mouse and I have the same god damn sense of style and im desperate for red cowboy boots covered in stars

#i found a pair i want. i just have to wait until i get back to my apartment #i need those boots. i should have bought boots while in the southwest but meh im still in #cowboy country. moreover than the losers i grew up with in southern ohio who wore Cowboy boots #i also want bridget Christie's taskmaster uniform. am i to start a cowboy era? #idk ive got a head full of nightmares tonight #but at least i finally got 7hrs #unrelated

[the-mouse-joust]

Other mice that didn't make the joust

I had more than 48 mice to choose from, but ultimately not all of them could make it in, either due to space, already having a really close character in the running, or due to not really being a mouse.

But I still would like to give the submissions that didn't make it in some love, so here they are below for anyone interested.

Not Enough Room :(

Chuppe from Pripara (very cute!)

Chuunosuke from The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles (also very cute!!)

Echo Mouse from The Owl House (cool concept)

Little from RWBY (researching this character broke my heart. ow)

Mousegirl bartender from Tumblr (iconic)

Mousely (Mouse Ashley) from Resident Evil 4 Fandom (this was really fun to discover and research. she's adorable. you guys are great.)

Petri from Animal Crossing (love her look)

Turnip from Chicory: A Colorful Tale (learning about this game delighted me)

Tyrannosaurus from One Piece (I love that he is just in that guy's pocket. fantastic)

Unnamed Narrator from The Witches (Roald Dahl) (that book is just. wild)

A Little Too Similar to Another Character

Diddlina from Diddl (already had Diddl in the joust)

Lilly from Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse by Kevin Henkes (she's a different character from a different book, but I felt that having two Kevin Henkes mice was probably enough. sorry Lilly fans... it was a hard choice to make, if that helps.)

Maushold from Pokemon (already had Tandemaus)

Mauswheel from Deltarune (already had Maus)

The Squeakers from Kirby: Squeak Squad (they are represented by Daroach)

Thea Stilton from Geronimo Stilton/Thea Stilton (I know she has her own books, but I did already have Geronimo Stilton in there...)

Timmy Brisby from The Secret of NIHM (his mom already made it in)

Not Really a Mouse

Fuwa from Star Twinkle Precure (she's quite mouse-like but I think she is officially an alien? but super adorable)

Mordenkainen from Harry Potter and the Natural 20 (far as I could tell, I think this one is a rat?)

Ratigan from The Great Mouse Detective (sorry, Ratigan. I know you hate to hear it, but, uh. I think you're a rat. also, Basil already got in. salt in the wound, I know.)

Oh Wait Someone Just Submitted This Mouse?

Saxon, Kenzie and Lieam from Mouse Guard (I don't know them but from the name "Mouse Guard" alone, I'm a little sad that I only got to see them now... but hey, if there are still such mousey stories out there that I didn't know about, maybe there could be a Mouse Joust 2. maybe. we only just started Mouse Joust 1...)

I dreamed I was at an elementary school book fair the other night and I found a big anthology book about lilly from lilly's purple plastic purse but she was a grandma with a wife and it was framed as if she was telling stories about herself as a little girl to her granddaughter

#I bought the book in the dream #which is funny because usually in dreams I don't buy things #kind of wish it was real outside of my subconcious

Check out this listing I just added to my Poshmark closet: Tory Burch Linen Drawstring Dust Cover Bag.
