Imagine the dragonets of destiny watching Encanto and the oldest three (Clay, Tsunami, Glory) start crying at Surface Pressure while the younger two (Starflight, Sunny) start crying at Waiting on a Miracle

#seriously though I'll explain here in the tags #Clay: the literal fireproof wall for both his adopted sibs AND his bio ones #Tsunami: the effective oldest of her (34?!) siblings along with being the DoD's primary leader (aka the one blamed if things went wrong) #Glory: do I need to explain her. She is currently ruling two barely-coexisting tribes. How is she okay #Starflight: he had no Cool Powers when his tribe - including fatespeaker - did (even if it was a lie) and was shunned for not being enough #Sunny: she was always excluded and called silly by the other DoD #tldr: all of the dragonets of destiny need help #and a hug #anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk #have a nice day :) #wings of fire #dragonets of destiny #clay wof #tsunami wof #glory wof #starflight wof #sunny wof #encanto #weirdrantskid #oops im tag rambling again

Seriously the song open up your eyes from the mlp movie sounds exactly like a dark Dog Man au.

Warning: I basically spoil Petey's entire backstory in this so don't read if you haven't read up to book 10.

Imagine AToTK (Dog Man 3) except after Petey takes his son clone from Dog Man's house and finds that LP apparently likes him a lot now, Petey locks Li'l Petey in a cage and sings that song to turn him evil.

Petey is definitely one to rant about something like this (if you don't believe me read ANY DM book then come back). While he normally keeps his personal history to himself, I see this as a situation where he finally snaps (plus this is a dark au so added bonus)

So Petey telling LP to start acting like an villain like him and to "give up (his) sweet fantasyland" is a concept I find very interesting!

ESPECIALLY THE BACKSTORY PART. The lyrics fit so well with Petey's story!

Getting rejected by the soon-to-be FLEAS (I once hoped for friendship / To find a place among my kind), the implied abuse at his home (The "We all start out the same" stanza), eventually being rejected by society for being a criminal's assistant (If you depend on others / You'll never find your place) and finally turning to villainy and not looking back (The best way to survive is all alone)

And this tactic might actually work, even against the optimism of Li'l Petey; keep in mind that in the seventh book, Petey's pessimistic behavior rubbed off on LP after Grampa raided their house. So who knows?

TL;DR: Listen to this cover (I particularly like that one) with the Peteys and see what you think!

My main problem with CWACOM 2 isn’t the character regression (though that is a problem). It isn’t the horrible title (though that’s another issue).

No, my problem with the sequel is that it can’t take a single emotional scene seriously. Cloudy 1 had several scenarios that elicited fear, anger, or otherwise from the audience, Flint’s presumed death coming to mind. Yet every time Cloudy 2 attempts this, some random joke forces a laugh out of the audience and ruins the scene.

Take the vesting ceremony for instance. Flint loses his chance to impress Chester V by way of saying the word “celebrate” and prompting Steve to trigger the Party-In-A-Box. He gets laughed at, pointed at, all that stuff. In the next scene, he walks home holding the worst slouch a human can, while a ridiculous song plays in the background. All this confuses the viewer; are we supposed to feel bad for Flint, or laugh at the song and/or how much he’s slouching?

Some more examples of this under the cut:

When Tim comes to Flint’s room to comfort him after the vesting ceremony, the bed tips over on impact of him sitting on it. Also Steve experiences some *cough* shenanigans involving a party horn in the background.

While assembling the team to go back to the island, Earl spontaneously abandons Cal and presumably Regina without a goodbye (when it was shown in the first movie that Earl is a family man)

In the next scene, Manny spontaneously abandons a cow midlabor without appointing someone to finish the job (when it was shown in the first movie that Manny takes doctoring very seriously)

(I’m skipping the scene with Brent since that’s pretty in character for once in this movie)

After Sam takes a liking to Barry, she thrusts him into Flint’s face. What follows is a very, very stretched gag solely consisting of Flint screaming.

When the gang finds the rest of the foodimals, they gasp in the manner of the first movie. Unlike the first, everyone does it simultaneously and for a ridiculously long time.

While everyone is running from the cheespider, the background music gets so loud that it’s really all you can pay attention to.

Those are the examples I have on my end, if I think of any more I’ll probably edit the post or reblog. Have a good day :)

I just watched Tangled and the Captain Underpants movie (in that order) back-to-back. Now I’m thinking about @tornrose24 and @princeasimdiya12′s Braided Together fanfic (CU x Tangled) and how amazing it was

#it's one of my favorite fanfics #and the sequel! the sequel fanfic too! #captain underpants #tangled #weirdrantskid #fanfic #reblog

The Post Where I Actually Explain the DM Tangled AU, Part 2

The cops are the royal guards

However, Chief isn’t the captain (since he takes the role of Maximus), Old/Evil Mayor is

Chief is the most trusted guard, both by the public and by the queen

Knight and Greg were great guards too, albeit the former is dumb like in canon

At some point, Greg in particular crosses paths with Li’l Petey, who has a different name

They don’t meet for very long, but it’s long enough that they somewhat recognize each other when DM crashes into the tower...

On LP’s side, he had lived with Flippy and the 22 tadpoles, before volunteering for a little project hosted by the FLEAS

Said “project” was just testing their (read: Piggy’s) various inventions, with the last one being a cannon that accidentally-kinda-on-purpose shot him off to parts unknown

(Note: if you didn’t read the first part, LP was thrown into the tower where Petey was being held hostage hidden - and yes, he does change his name at some point)

Okay now back to Dog Man

When both Knight and Greg get hurt in an explosion (Knight with a useless head, Greg with a useless body, like in canon), it’s ultimately Nurse Lady that comes up with a solution

The doctors were worried that cutting off Greg’s head would kill him, and even if it didn’t, the stitches wouldn’t work

Nurse Lady is a magic user, so she enchants the stitches to preserve his life

So now DM’s technically magic but he can’t use it

Over the next few months, he dutifully defends the kingdom, which the citizens praise him for

However, when he’s not saving Collardale, he’s getting in trouble (courtesy of Evil Mayor and Chief) for rolling in trash or sleeping on the job again

So I have two ideas for how Dog Man could be Flynn (bc let’s face it, he’d never steal the crown on purpose, below the break or it would get too long)

Idea One

Evil Mayor reluctantly gives Dog Man the job of going around the castle delivering/picking up stuff, like a mail carrier

He’s given a satchel to hold the stuff (this satchel will NOT come in handy later)

One thing he’s told to get is a can of living spray in the treasury

Said treasury contains many other trinkets, like the queen’s personal ukulele, various other sprays, and the lost prince’s crown (which is so priceless it’s guarded by two royal guards, one of which is named Maude)

Anyway, Dog Man gets the spray, but has to hightail it right out of the room at the mean cops’ insistence

He trips, accidentally spraying the crown to life

The now-living crown gets off its post and climbs into the satchel

Dog Man notices what just happened and runs right out of the treasury

The mean cops follow in hot pursuit, getting other guards (including Chief) to stop the “thief”

So now it’s everyone vs. Dog Man

Cue wild chase

Idea Two

Everyone’s preparing for the lost prince’s 25th birthday Before you ask yeah I decided Petey would be 24/25 here. Also they’re preparing in the first part too

The guards (except an MIA Dog Man) are informed by either the mean cops or the queen that Petey's crown is gone

Of course, they go searching, but the two mean cops look into the treasury. All signs point to Dog Man being the thief, footprints and whatnot

In reality, he had not taken the crown, the real thieves framed him (a la Brawl of the Wild)

Dog Man had been purchasing some bones that were on sale while all this was going on

The thieves somehow get the crown into a bag that he was carrying?

A few minutes later, the mean cops accuse him of stealing the crown

Dog Man’s all “I did not” and empties his bag to prove it, only for the crown to fall out

The two cops call for backup

So now it’s everyone vs. Dog Man

Cue wild chase

And finally, just for fun, how DM got in the tower in the first place:

After finding the tower, he decides to try and find a way in to catch his breath, hide for a little bit, all that jazz

Unfortunately touching the tower itself shocks you (or DM just doesn’t want to climb seventy-some feet)

There’s a nearby tree, so he climbs up to the closest branch to the window

He uses a string to tie a couple bones (either from idea two or somewhere else) together, and another string is tied to the top of one bone, so it looks like his Bark Knight weapon with a knot on top

The top string is then tied to a higher branch; essentially he makes it like a swing

Pls don’t ask about that complicated plan

Using the contraption, Dog Man intends to swing into the open window

Instead, he goes above the window (missing it entirely) and crashes directly into the roof

Don’t worry, he’s okay for the next few minutes

He explores the tower for a bit, going into different rooms, wondering who lives in such a place

Suddenly he gets knocked unconscious with a frying pan, courtesy of a six-foot cat.

Liked a few Frozen posts and now it’s all over my dash. Thanks tumblr really appreciate it/s

#weird and unnecessary posts kid #weirdrantskid

[weirdthingskid]

Seeing Frozen hate makes me feel super weird for genuinely liking the movie. Like if i’m scrolling through disney content and then i see tumblr users people rate it zero stars or less bc it was overrated or the structure was bad while Let it Go or DYWtBaS is stuck in my head. I get why people don’t like it but it’s just something that bugs me a lot.

#i dont post or rb a lot of frozen content bc of this #just had to get this off my chest #frozen #frozen franchise #anti-frozen hate #is that a tag? #weirdrantskid #text dump

I literally just swapped the colors of the default profile pic

So I’d been thinking of writing a (platonic!) DM tangled au for awhile. I really want it to be a Dog Man/Petey/Li’l Petey sort of thing.

Okay so here’s my problem. Petey has a closer personality (mannerisms if you will) to Eugene, so I thought at first that he would take his role. Well the issue with that is either DM or LP has to be Rapunzel, and both those options obviously wouldn’t work.

So I thought of making Petey Rapunzel, which would somewhat work, what with the abusive parent. That way LP could be Pascal and DM could be Eugene. But that sounds a little strange when you consider the fact that Petey could’ve been the thief, but is the princess instead.

What do you think?
