Get up cock-suckers and pussy lovers it's time to vote.

A small comprehensive resource guide on voting in the 2025 Australian election on 3rd May.

Be an informed voter! Here are some websites to help with your decision making.

https://www.buildaballot.org.au/

This is Build A Ballot where you can well, build a ballot 3 weeks before the election, it recommends a 3 step process to informed voting. I recommend visiting their "election 101" section first as it gives a short easy to understand guide to understanding the election process. Articles in this section include:

โ€ข Can Voters in Safe Seats Influence Election Outcomes?

โ€ข Is My Vote Worth It? Debunking Myths About Voting in Australia

โ€ข Are we voting for the Prime Minister?

โ€ข When is the Next Australian Federal Election?

โ€ข Do I Have to Vote in the Federal Election?

โ€ข Do Politicians Have to Keep Their Election Promises?

โ€ข What is a Minority Government?

โ€ข Minor Parties and Independents

โ€ข Preferential Voting

โ€ข How to Vote in Australian Elections: A Step-by-Step Guide

โ€ข Australia's Political System

โ€ข The Major Parties

Their research hub let's you discover the candidates in your local area with official party websites attached. It also includes a Ballot Breakdown spreadsheet to write down your preferences for the House of Representatives, Senate (above the line) a.k.a specific parties for the Senate. Senate (below the line) a.k.a individual candidates for the Senate.

For researching candidates to make sure they're policies match with what you care about check their about sections on their parties website and social media. If your candidate has been elected before give They Vote for You a look. They Vote for You give you policies that the candidate has directly voted on split into sections of consistently for, almost always for, generally for, a mixture of for and against, generally against, almost always against, consistently against and can't say anything concrete about how they voted on. Clicking on these policies also give you an overview of the exact bills and motions attached to the policy so you can see how exactly our government are inacting these polices.

https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/

A helpful google doc is humanity_bites' Federal Voting Help spreadsheet of 5 tabs explaining policy breakdowns, federal parties voting history, independents voting history, enrolling to vote and how to vote.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1zNwxLGPTm4MZ-HFOG7M-m0K46OopmjcU/htmlview

Another site is Federal Australian Election Matcher, this has a section of issues you can tick to get a Match Percentage for candidates that matches with your issues. It also includes a section that shows what the ballats look like.

https://www.votehelp.site/

And remember this is not the US or UK we have preferential voting meaning EVERY VOTE MATTERS not just your first preference!

A little note for leftists voters, since the two major parties are both terrible, voting for minor parties and independents are the way to go. Put labour and liberal at the bottom of your list, show them that we're tired of their ignoring of issues we are about and refusal to put the people over corporations!

American Easter confuses me.

Why do you paint hard-boiled eggs and have eggs with plastic shells that hold lollies inside? And you use those boiled eggs in Easter egg hunts, do you like wrap them in something before you put them on the ground? What is the purpose of the egg painting? Is it like an actual Christan tradition or just an American one? Do you guys eat the boiled eggs instead of chocolate eggs and bunnies?

Why is Easter so unimportant? We get a four day weekend for Easter in Australia and you don't even get a day off? I'm honestly surprised with how Christan America is. Is Easter pushed to the side because you guys have such a big Valentine's Day? Why does ham seem to be so popular for Easter dinner?

rant and possible spoilers for book 1

It's actually a very reasonable response considering their background with the police. They are small town police in a what I'm guessing is a midwest or southern state, who is going to hold them accountable if they were to jail someone without much evidence? The police has shown time and time again that they are not on Bendy and Boris' side and considering the time period and them both being part of a marginalised group they probably don't have the system to back them up. Sure they could of been in a position to hire a lawyer but that would financially ruin both of them since they were now both jobless. Not to mention we see legal discrimination with Mr Winky clear as day.

There's a reason why a lot of marginalised groups don't trust the cops and have every reason to. Unfortunately innocence can mean nothing if you get a crowd so riled up they call for imprisonment. If he got cleared he could of still been taken out by an angry mob. They're house got broken into, it's clear someone was out to kill them and what better way to find them then being in a locked box. As an oldest sibling I would of definitely ran even if not for myself then for my younger siblings. Bendy wants to get Boris out of a clearly dangerous situation. Bendy? Sure he'd probably be fine he's a demon he has his shadows and super strength. But Boris? The 14-year-old kid that is too kind for his own good and has no ability to win in an actual fight if he's not using his teeth which would get him off to jail anyway? He doesn't stand a chance.

Really in the trial they were extremely lucky, there's probably not a lot of cases where a demon or wolf get cleared. They had people to vouch for them getting the crowd to understand their true character, they were turned in my detectives that did everything in their power to get them a fair trial and gave the boys one of the best lawyers they could. They didn't have any of that in Sillyvision it would of been to the jail cell for them if they stayed.

And what if I made yet another Osix au set in the 2000s-2010s where one of them is in a band and they're originally exes that's loosely based in the inky mystery universe and the songs bad idea right? by Olivia Rodrigo and bad idea! by girl in red? Maybe I should name the fic bad idea guys

I could seriously make like 50 aus of different scenarios that lead to these two kissing. Their dynamic is just so interesting to me, both as a platonic and romantic pair.

Build a ballot just came out today, what the actual fuck is wrong with my area for the house of representatives. I wanted to put all minor parties over labour and liberal but 3/4 of them are straight up bigots. They're literally some of my last options I have on the Senate. One of the parties FIRST policy is literally and I quote "protect children from harmful LGBTIQA+ gender fluid ideology" and "ban the use of puberty blockers". I forgot that I'm in a little leftist bubble of friends and that a LOT of people in my city are quite bigoted.

So like I've had this in my drafts for months and I don't know if I've ever going to get around to finishing it so here's all I had written for a one-sided Felzu fic I was working on.

Chapter 1: Lady Luck is on the demon's side!

Heels clicked against cold stone bricks. A dark-skinned man walked with purpose around a corner, walls made out of the same stone as the floor. Ice clung to every surface yet did not seem to affect the man. He stopped in front of a door. Instead of a handle there was a small white stone tablet. Intricately carved with a front facing eagle perched atop two lions facing sideways and opposite from each other. The eagle had a face of a lion and so did the lions with eagle faces. All their eyes were closed. There was a small square nestled in the middle of the tablet.

Anzu blew icey breath into the square and straighten his pristine suit with a huff. He had a meeting with the other princes of hell that went on for longer than he anticipated. Though with Ava's embarrassing slip up and subsequent punishment Anzu found himself with some more free time on his hands.

The clicking of mechanisms could be heard coming from the door before Anzu pushed it open. The eyes of the eagle and lions now open to reveal purple gems in their place. Stepping into his office Anzu's shoes were met with a thick wool rug. Intricate patterns delicately weaved through the fabric. The demon walked further into the room and sat on a chair with a desk in front of it. The office was littered with expensive woods, gems, fabrics and pottery alongside various ice sculptures.

Anzu dug around in the draw of his desk to find the papers he needed to take care of. While reviewing conduct negotiations from lords around their surface properties the shine of the archangel soul fragment caught the demon's attention.

The demon frowned placing the rest of the papers down, careful not to place them too close to the ones he had already rejected or signed. Maybe he should move the soul fragment somewhere it wouldn't catch his eye so often. The fragment sat perched on a silk pillow inside a curved glass case. It glittered brightly in the artificial lights. An archangel's soul was truly a sight to behold.

Not just any archangel's either. The soul of the spawn of the angel judge herself, Master Hannah Angel. What was the young angel's name again? Alice, Alice Angel. Fitting name for such a girl. Ever noble in her righteous ways. Anzu smirked. What a fine opportunity the gods had just placed in his lap.

The demon glanced over to the other soul fragment perched on his desk. The casing of this fragment was more decorated then Alice's. Gold swirled from the bottom and top of the casing with a few gemstones tucked in. It didn't have that bright light that came from Alice's soul as it belonged to a non-magical creature. But that didn't make it any less than the angel's fragment. No, this belonged to a very interesting cat by the name of Felix.

Anzu licked his lips looking at it. He knew better then to devour either fragment as it was infested with that illness. Anzu hadn't been able to get the cat's soul out of his head. He had handled many souls in his life but Felix' was just breathtaking. It was beautiful. All the emotions swirled through in a gorgeous harmony. They were all so bright, it was easy to tell at a first glance that he was deeply passionate. Anzu hadn't seen such a strong and complex soul in awhile.

Meeting the cat in person Anzu could see why he was chosen as Professor Wilson Wiseton's prodigy. He had an idea of how Felix was due to the devil getting him to keep an eye on him in case Professor Wiseton had contact with him. But none of it truly prepared him to seeing Felix in action.

Quite literally, he could hold his own surprisingly well against a demon lord. An impressive feet for a simple cat toon. His fighting style was based on agility and flexibility. Drawing from your species' specialties was always a sign of a good fighter. Felix knew how to use his body in a way that told Anzu he had plenty of experience. He had shown to be skilled in multiple weapons. Switching between them with ease. That magic bag was a sight to behold as well. Anzu wondered how Felix got his hands on a pocket space bag. Yes, this cat was very interesting.

The demon prince hummed. He'd love to take the cat out for dinner. Felix had been a good conversationist last they spoke. Open and warm but it was clear his trust was not one to be tested. Anzu would have to keep that in mind. He would hate to break the trust given so easily to him by Felix. Anzu couldn't deny he was honoured by it. Maybe even a little flattered. Felix cared enough about demonkind to offer him all the information they had on ink illness. Felix fought a demon lord to adopt one of his kind. Anzu smiled at that.

He turned back to his papers and his smile grew. Lord Black Hat had made a request.

Anzu would have to see if Lady Luck was in his cards today.

Bendy tapped the table along with the tune carried by the record player in the living room. It was an upbeat jazzy tune. Bendy had a flick through of Felix' records with Boris. A lot of jazz of all kinds and some classical ones that Bendy had never heard before. Boris commented something about them sounding Felix. Everyone had a certain sound or something. Bendy didn't really get it but Boris tried to explain that you can tell a lot about someone by the type of music they like. It seemed to amuse Felix though when Boris tried to explain how it made sense he liked the type of songs he did. Bendy didn't really care about genres, if the music had a good rhythm he could dance to then that was good enough for him. Well, unless the lyrics were dumb.

His other hand was occupied by one of Hat's demon books. He had to visit Hat today and had been procrastinating on his readings. The smell of chicken, canola oil, eggs and an assortment of spices he couldn't pin point filled his nose. Smelt good though. Bendy's focus switched from his book to Boris and Dad's conversation while they made lunch. Felix' cooking was berries. No one could top Granny but Dad was an extremely close second. Growing up Bendy always thought the saying about food tasting better when it was 'made with love' was stupid. He definitely got the saying now. No matter what Granny or Dad cooked it make him feel relaxed and warm inside.

Bendy couldn't help but smile to himself. He felt loved and relaxed here. With his family. With his Dad's homemade cooking, with the help of his little brother sometimes. That was still a bit strange to say. It almost didn't feel real. Bendy cringed at that and clearly tried to shoo that line of thinking away. Letting out a shaky breath.

Bendy couldn't help but smile to himself. He felt loved and relaxed here. With his family. With his Dad's homemade cooking, with the help of his little brother sometimes. That was still a bit strange to say. It almost didn't feel real. Bendy cringed at that and clearly tried to shoo that line of thinking away. Letting out a shaky breath.

"Bendy," Dad's voice cut into his thoughts.

He snapped his head up to see a worried, searching look on Dad's face. His shoulder felt warm. Oh Dad's hand was on it. His hands were always soft and warm.

"You okay, Bendy?" Boris spoke from across the table. Wearing the same worried expression that Dad did. Even with a spoonful of food in his muzzle.

Bendy looked at his dad and back to Boris and then down at the food in front of him. He must have been zoned out.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine, just.. thinking is all," Bendy gave his family a stiff smile. The look Boris gave told Bendy he didn't believe the demon.

"Are you sure? Bendy you know you can tell Boris and I anything," Dad pulled Bendy into a small side hug, rubbing his face against Bendy's.

Bendy let out a chuckle at that. It always cheered the demon up. He realised it was a cat thing after seeing Inky and Winky do it a couple times. A genuine smile crawled it's way onto Bendy's face. He was okay. He was safe here.

"Yeah I'm sure, just got in my head a bit," Bendy smiled at both of him and reached over the table to pat Boris on the head. Bendy was not going to acknowledge the fact that he couldn't reach over the table the full way so Boris had to meet him halfway.

When Bendy retracted his hand Boris thumped back in his seat, tail wagging a mile a minute. Dad smiled at both of them, ruffling Bendy's fur and giving him a small peck on the forehead. He walked over to Boris and did the same before returning to his seat at the head of the table. Bendy felt embarassment darken his cheeks. Boris' tail was wagging so fast that Bendy was worried it would fall off. Felix started giving them pecks on the forehead after Boris asked for one when he was trying to sleep. That surprised Bendy since Boris never liked kisses. Boris told him that Molly said something about a father's forehead kisses driving away nightmares. So he asked Felix and said he had a good sleep that night. Despite Bendy sometimes feeling embarrassed by them, he didn't mind them. He just felt like he was a little too old for little pecks on the forehead.

________________________

A warm spring breeze hit the small demon as he stepped out of the house. Felix in toe. He was joining him to Black Hat's Casino since Dr. Oddswell wanted Dad to bring over some research notes to Hat. Dad never seemed thrilled whenever Hat was in vicinity of him. Bendy couldn't blame him. Hat was a pain.

Bendy's mind went back to the couple weeks he and Boris have been living with Dad. Just his room alone was so big he didn't know what to fill it with. It's been great to have his own room. He liked the way Dad had things. Their home was cosy and inviting. It was fun to see the similarities of Dad's and Boris' decorating. Bendy had no idea how much of an artist his dad was. What surprised Bendy the most was how messy the cat was. The house always had clutter and a small messy pile somewhere. Dad didn't like cleaning but he did it well. He just had a tendency to procrastinate a little on it. It wasn't bad, just enough that Felix would like people to tell him when they're coming over.

"You've been zoning out a lot today, is Black Hat pushing you too hard?" Dad frowned.

"Huh? Oh! No that's not..." Bendy trialled off.

Felix gave him the same look of 'not buying it' Boris had earlier.

"Bendy, really, is something going on?" his voice gave off that soft fatherly edge that always made Bendy want to spill his heart out.

"I just..." Bendy struggled for the words. "A lot has happened lately... It's hard to, I don't know, wrap my head around?" He shrugged helplessly.

Felix hummed. "Do you want to talk about it?"

"Not really, I mean yes but just not now," Bendy grit his teeth, why wasn't any words forming.

All those long nights of spiralling thoughts just to come up with nothing.

"Okay, I won't push but when you're ready promise you'll tell me,"

"I promise... I'm sorry for worrying you,"

"Man this inky mystery au idea has been has been racking around my brain for awhile I should probably start posting about. I wonder how long I've been working on this."

*looks at my obsidian vault where I've collected all my thoughts and research for the au*

Created on the 26th February 2024

Please ask me about my au I'm begging to at least talk about it

I write fanfiction on Ao3!

Since I gave out my Tumblr in the last chapter I posted for one of my fics I thought I'll make a post about it since I will probably post more about it. My user is Mini_Golden for those interested in checking out my writing. I currently have two works for the Osix ship.

The Love That Comes From Tragedy is just a cute little one shot set directly after chapter 366, currently. I do have ideas for a sequel or might just make it a 2 chapter fic but that is not in the works at the moment.

The Choices We Make is an au loosely based on inky mystery. It's basically a 'what if' Oswald and Felix ended up unhappily with their original love interests which for Oswald is Fanny and for Felix is Kitty. I suggest caution with this fic though as it is for mature audiences and therefore has a lot of mature themes. All the trigger warning for it in the tags so be sure to read them closely. There's only 3 chapters currently and I aim to post at least one chapter every month but I'm hoping to possibly get two. I don't have a backlog for this fic so I am just writing, editing and posting when I get things done. So basically the schedule for this fic is it comes out when it comes out but you can expect a chapter each month. With this uncertainty I will be posting updates for this fic on here and hopefully get around to some drawings of it as well.

A lot of people really liked the meme I edited to be Oswald and Felix so I might make a little Felix and bunny kids one shot as I also have gotten into Dog Man lately so family fluff is just wrecking around in my brain ready to write. Thank you all so much for the engagement on that post btw I did not expect it to blow up like it did. Clearly the people yearn for Osix family fluff so I shall most likely provide.

I really enjoy the way the archetypes of characters in inky mystery are expanded. A lot of characters end up fiting into multiple archetypes and the way they contrast and compliment each other, it's so interesting. I'm just gonna put some quick rants about the questers here.

Bendy, the main character, the chosen one, the big brother. I love how being an older brother shapes his character especially early on in the series. While there are quite a handful of YA main characters that are older siblings, I feel like with Bendy it's just organically baked into his character which as an older sibling myself really resonate with.

Boris, the second lead, the young boy, the naive child, the younger brother. I love Boris' character development so much. Similar to Bendy I think Tap captures their ages really well, Boris very much acts like a 14 year old. He often feels unheard by the adults around him and doesn't truly grasp the scale of why he has the restrictions he does as a child until it's too late essentially. In the beginning he is quite naive but he's so surprisingly one of the more observant characters so he's very much not stupid.

Cuphead, the antagonist, the tough guy that's really a softie inside, the older brother. Omg seeing how different and similar Bendy and Cuphead are under the same archetype as the protective and skeptical older brother as well as Boris and Mugman with the younger brother archetype is so fun. He's very provoking but also very calm under pressure while still being quite a hot-headed character. Despite closing himself off from people he is an extremely emotional and sensitive character.

Mugman, the reluctant antagonist, the bubbly joe, the younger brother. I love that we are seeing more of actual Mugman and not the very bubbly, silly persona he often puts on. It's so interesting to see his strong sense of justice clash with what he has needed to do throughout his life.

Felix, the fearless adventurer, the fatherly guide, the deadly warrior. Felix is my favourite character so I have the most to say about him, also he's a very interesting character to me due to his contrasting personality traits that clash giving him a lot of internal conflict. We are first introduced to Felix has the adventurer but parts his personality is very much not what you expect when tying him to this archetype. He very much embodies the adventurer archetype with his boyish peter pan like wonder on the world, very motivated and pretty approachable and friendly but there are also traits that are very much not part of this archetype. He's very soft, he can have a very gentle approach to people, he is often seen as a fatherly figure to the younger people around him like Bendy and Holly being the biggest example and we even see this care extended to the cupbros mostly Pre-Labyrinth. He's also surprisingly prown to fleeing emotional situations that make him uncomfortable.

Some of my Inky Mystery Headcanons! (A lot of future ones)

โ€ข Oswald has a thing for black cats that he will never admit. Everyone in the circus crew knows, Donald is the only one that makes snarky comments about it though.

โ€ข Felix only realised his queerness in his early 30s and is now plagued with recognising the feelings he had for men in the past that he brushed off at the time as jealousy or just really really wanted to be friends. Oswald on the other hand just kinda knew from the beginning, it wasn't really talked about but his siblings and friends all knew early on that he swings both ways. I think they both experimented with guys before in their 20s. Oswald under the guise of a "joke", figuring out what guys he did and didn't like. Felix still honestly believing he was only into woman had a couple drunken flings with men in university, he was the one of the "Alcohol-Induced Bisexuality" guys.

โ€ข Felix sees Holly as a niece to him. Holly has always seen Felix as a fatherly figure but as soon as someone mistaken them for an uncle and niece everything clicked for her and she began treating Felix completely like an uncle. Even slipping up on it and calling him uncle Felix on accident.

โ€ข Holly loves bothering Felix about meaningless drama and gossip and will consider her mission a success if she can get a genuine uncontrolled reaction out of him, like a face of outrage or disgust or laughing at an inappropriate or mean joke.

โ€ข Bendy brings out a completely different side of Holly in school. While Holly has always been quiet and a model student, with Bendy she will get in trouble for laughing or talking too much in classes she has with him. It freaks out her old classmates.

โ€ข Bendy and Holly become really close friends over their years at uni together and consider each other best friends. They are insufferable and can often be seen together or in their little trio or quad with Cuphead and Alice.

โ€ข Cuphead will bring both Bendy and Holly coffee and sweets on their lunch times or study breaks as an excuse to bug and spend time with them. No one knows how he got in. He knows Holly's and Bendy's uni schedules to a t it's actually concerning.

โ€ข Holly completes her major at the top of her class with many outstanding awards for her contribution to the understanding of Micco culture.

โ€ข Bendy majors in mechanical engineering and minors in anthropology mostly due to Felix and Holly. He wishes he had the anthropology class before he had to study demon history as it would of made it so much easier to follow. Holly gets really excited when she finds out she has like one class with Bendy. He discovers he likes to figure out the way things work, that being either mechanics or people.

โ€ข Out of the circus crew Goofy is actually the best at comforting Oswald about his late wife and with the struggle of being a single father in general.

โ€ข Both Oswald and Felix being used to being romantic gentlemen to their girlfriends will often laugh about doing the same thing such as both bringing each other roses at the same time or offering to open doors or pull up chairs for each other. It takes them awhile to figure out what's comfortable for each other without the heteronormative expectations of what they should be doing for each other.

โ€ข That post about Anzu finding Felix attractive was just too good to not make some headcanons about. Anzu lightly flirts with Felix to get a rise out of Bendy. Felix is clueless and thinks he is using flattery to use him to do something for him later down the line. Felix politely takes the compliments but doesn't engage further than that. Bendy HATES this and rants to Holly about it. Holly also hates it and they both keep a close eye on Anzu when he's around Felix.

โ€ข Felix is very shy about his and Oswald's relationship (dating) at first but becomes the one to fluster Oswald more often further into their relationship. He has the rabbit completely wrapped around his finger. Dominant Felix! I will die on this hill. Hear me out PLEASE. WE ALL SAW THE WAY HE TEASED OSWALD IN THAT SCENE IN OSWALD'S BEDROOM.

โ€ข On that note, Felix is a MASSIVE tease even when they are alone. A quick flick under Oswald's chin with his tail. A steamy makeout session just for Felix to go be busy with a task. A raunchy joke or comment said in public that only Oswald can hear. This drives Oswald NUTS since he really doesn't do all that much romantic teasing, he loves attention and is not patient about getting it.

โ€ข Pre-Labyrinth Felix used to brew extra of whatever tea or coffee he was making for Cuphead and Mugman to put in their heads. Felix would always add some type of crema or sugar to Cuphead's brew, 1) because he found out Cup injoys sweet things and 2) in hopes of "sweetening" up his personality (this was unsuccessful). Holly began to create a list of how different beverages affected the cupbros when she noticed what Felix was doing. It also gave the cupbros a scene of Felix' mood that mourning, the same double shot expresso for 3 days in a row? Felix was stress researching. Cuphead would never admit how upset he was when Felix stopped doing this. Both Dishes barely change out their drinks Post-Labyrinth.

โ€ข Despite Felix' importance on accommodating Boris' wolf requirements, as an adult he ended up with cat mannerisms. It wasn't just the fact that Felix raised him but also Bendy having cat-like traits already just for them to be extremely amped up since meeting Felix. People think Boris is weird for his cat mannerisms and he was a little embarrassed of them at first but just sees them as a connection to his family as an adult.

โ€ข Alice and Bendy had kids pretty quickly once they settled down. Watching Bendy with Oswald's kids gave Alice baby fever while dating, to the point she would sometimes have to remove herself from the scene. Being angel-demon hybrids some of their children with shape-shifting abilities took on physical traits of Boris and Felix. This was a pleasant surprise to all of them, Bendy just about cried when he found out, Alice was so happy they could have physical traits from both sides of their families. Now people that know genuinely that Bendy, Boris and Felix are biologically related. The three have fun with these claims.

โ€ข Blending Oswald and Felix' families together turned out to be easier than either of them thought. Felix was extremely nervous at first with Oswald's kids but most of them handled Felix' more parental role very positively. It wasn't an overnight thing, Oswald and Felix had a lot of conversations about subtle changes as not to overwhelm them. The children calling Felix their second mum stopped pretty quickly after Felix started to take on an actual parental role, opting instead to refer to him as just Felix or going by Bendy and Boris' system of pops - Oswald, dad - Felix. Surprisingly Bendy was the first to start thinking of Oswald as a second dad figure, even before Felix and Oswald were official. Boris was confused on Oswald and Felix' relationship before he learned that gay people exist, after that he was thrilled to have Oswald as a step-father. Mickey was arguably the most excited when he's told about Felix and Oswald's relationship, he goes all out and has an entire "welcome to the family" party for Felix, Bendy and Boris. Both Oswald and Felix are deeply embarrassed by this while Bendy, Boris and the bunny kids are having the time of their lives.

โ€ข Mickey may be a sweetheart but he's still a little brother so as payback for Minnie, Mickey teases Oswald like crazy for his crush on Felix. He even makes comments to Felix about how he would be an amazing brother in law when Felix helps out around the circus. This leads Oswald to often shoo Mickey away whenever Felix is over. Donald finds all this hilarious and calls out how childish the two are being with it.

I've been trying to set up more realistic expectations for myself for the new Oswald the Lucky Rabbit hybrid animation live-action series and honestly, they are not all that positive with the way Disney is going with its shitty live action remakes and setting it's animated projects to fail from the get-go. The fact that it's a live action hybrid pisses me off from the start, I'm still salty about that Oswald animation series that was canned possibly for this. Disney has such an inability since the live action remake era we're in to reach a target audience.

I apologise for the negativity around this new announcement but my hopes are just not high especially with the characterisation of Oswald in recent Disney media. I was so excited for him to be in Dreamlight and Once Upon a Studio just to be disappointed that Disney has been boiling him down to just a vintage character. THAT'S BEEN HIS ENTIRE THING LATELY AND I'M SICK OF IT. I'm not even going to get started on what they've done to his personality. HE WAS KNOWN FOR HIS PERSONALITY EVEN IN HIS DEBUT FOR A REASON.

He doesn't even get a modern redesign like Mickey which okay fine, whatever we can work with that but if they really want to bring Oswald back into the public eye he should be actively put into the Mickey Mouse & Friends universe. He doesn't even have to be part the sensational six, just being Mickey's older brother that's got a bit of an attitude but a heart of gold has an ocean of possibilities in both shows and comics. Bring back Horace, make them a competitive duo, parallel to Mickey and Donald. Make a little group of Oswald, Horace, Clarabelle and Ortensia, there's already an establishment of their dynamics with the Wasteland comics and then that gives way for Ortensia to interact with Minnie and Daisy through Clarabelle (being her friend) and Mickey (being her brother-in-law). Bunny children, enough said. So. Many. Shenanigans, you could write that feel fun and organic. You literally have creatives that have expressed a love for Oswald's character in your company, PUT HIM IN KINGDOM HEARTS YOU COWARDS. Why do you think Epic Mickey did so well, why is it the main version people associate Oswald with? Because the people who worked on CARED. They had fun with it. WHY CAN'T DISNEY EXECUTS ASK THEMSELVES QUESTIONS THAT ACTUALLY MATTER TO THE ENJOYMENT OF THEIR AUDIENCE!?

This is why Disney is going under, if you make good things the money will roll in even if it takes awhile and it will become beloved IP. You need to be willing to have things flop, Hunchback of Notre Dame and Treasure Planet didn't sell like Disney wanted it to due to their own shitty marketing of the films but are beloved cult classics today with people willing to see revivals. In conclusion I don't have high hopes for Disney being able to even attempt at making Mickey Mouse & Friends and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit fans content and satisfied. At this point just watch the Oswald shorts and play Epic Mickey then go to Tumblr and Ao3, you won't be missing out on anything.

No everything you just said is true its realistic not negative, the fact we don't even have the name of the series as it got mentioned is a red flag on its own but the fact they have been just turning oswald more and more into "the vintage guy" is telling on its own on what they want you to see him as

I cannot imagine why this needs to be a live action hybrid, no matter what way you spin it its unnecesary at best and ruining at worst knowing how all of their solo hybrids turned out (reminder roger rabbit was an artpiece created with help of much more than didney just bc they own the copyright donesnt make it a "disney movie tm")

They have been giving us nothing but tapwater oswald content, not stories, not art, none of that content in its most capitalized form and they've made it pretty clear how they see him, just as mickey 2.0 but extra vintage and not even mickey the character no but mickey the brand, they've been changing things not in a "testing out new things to see how it works bc we wanna do fun stuff with it" way but in a overly safe way to make more money, his personality was strong, he's mean he has tons of flaws he explodes easily and he's a pesimist and those arent just his #quirks those were things activley effecting his character thats why most people love oswald sm

I myseld made a post abt it already but oswald belongs to people, to me and you more than he ever belonged to disney, its the fandom and the community that has been keeping him up for so long

its the community that asked for him to be given the spotlight not the exacutives that added him to ddlv (as tapwater as ot was) and its the fandom that has been making stories with him, now that he's public domain it was a diffrent indie studio announcing a movie with him that I WILL give a shot, i myself am making a project with him for his 100th birthday, its the AU's like the blotward AU the mystical AU the backup detectives the inky mystery that keep reintroducing him and making him important and sm fun its the fanfiction on Ao3 even the worse ones that have keept him around for so long and keept on giving him diff character arcs, stories, jokes, description, its that fanon wiki article with slight misinformation written by someone at 5AM that tries to explain him to you more than disney ever did its YOU its US that have him even with trademarks he's not disneys

they had their shot and they aimed at the sky and now there bluffing saying they have another bullet.

They don't.

SO REAL, and yeah the fandom is what truly keeps the love and hype for this rabbit going. What's the bet for Oswald's 100th if it's not the release of the hybrid series it will be fucking nothing or a goddamn commercial. I'm worried for Mickey's 100th and he's Disney's golden child (STOP COMMERCIALISING MY BOY, GIVE HIM A FEATURE LENGTH ANIMATION FILM AGAIN PLEASE). The masterpiece that is Roger Rabbit can hardly be attested to Disney itself, you know what can though? The Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers film, god that film was awful. I watched it with my friends in year 11 or 12 and we were all like 'what the actual fuck is this' (my friends only watched it for the ugly sonic scenes cause we're all sonic fans and it was the only part of the movie that we got joy out of). I mean you put all these concepts in the film just for none of them to be really fleshed out all that much. I get it's a film but the fact that it is based off the real original voice actor for Peter Pan that genuinely struggled and turn his story into a plot for the villain is so deeply distasteful and disgusting.

On a lighter note I don't know when I'll be able to get around to it cause finding a job in this economy has been kicking my ass but I'm hoping to do a little comic series of just Oswald and Ortensia meeting Mickey Mouse & Friends characters as well as what I have named the Wasteland group (Oswald, Ortensia, Clarabelle and Hoarce) shenanigans.

I've been trying to set up more realistic expectations for myself for the new Oswald the Lucky Rabbit hybrid animation live-action series and honestly, they are not all that positive with the way Disney is going with its shitty live action remakes and setting it's animated projects to fail from the get-go. The fact that it's a live action hybrid pisses me off from the start, I'm still salty about that Oswald animation series that was canned possibly for this. Disney has such an inability since the live action remake era we're in to reach a target audience.

I apologise for the negativity around this new announcement but my hopes are just not high especially with the characterisation of Oswald in recent Disney media. I was so excited for him to be in Dreamlight and Once Upon a Studio just to be disappointed that Disney has been boiling him down to just a vintage character. THAT'S BEEN HIS ENTIRE THING LATELY AND I'M SICK OF IT. I'm not even going to get started on what they've done to his personality. HE WAS KNOWN FOR HIS PERSONALITY EVEN IN HIS DEBUT FOR A REASON.

He doesn't even get a modern redesign like Mickey which okay fine, whatever we can work with that but if they really want to bring Oswald back into the public eye he should be actively put into the Mickey Mouse & Friends universe. He doesn't even have to be part the sensational six, just being Mickey's older brother that's got a bit of an attitude but a heart of gold has an ocean of possibilities in both shows and comics. Bring back Horace, make them a competitive duo, parallel to Mickey and Donald. Make a little group of Oswald, Horace, Clarabelle and Ortensia, there's already an establishment of their dynamics with the Wasteland comics and then that gives way for Ortensia to interact with Minnie and Daisy through Clarabelle (being her friend) and Mickey (being her brother-in-law). Bunny children, enough said. So. Many. Shenanigans, you could write that feel fun and organic. You literally have creatives that have expressed a love for Oswald's character in your company, PUT HIM IN KINGDOM HEARTS YOU COWARDS. Why do you think Epic Mickey did so well, why is it the main version people associate Oswald with? Because the people who worked on CARED. They had fun with it. WHY CAN'T DISNEY EXECUTS ASK THEMSELVES QUESTIONS THAT ACTUALLY MATTER TO THE ENJOYMENT OF THEIR AUDIENCE!?

Wouldnโ€™t Nora look more like Ortensia than Felix since sheโ€™s a woman and I assume she looks like Felix since theyโ€™re siblings..? Oswald reacted completely normal when he saw her, is that another sign that heโ€™s falling for Felix more physically or does Nora just physically not look as close to Ortensia as Felix does?

We know with Oswald it's more of a personality + looks thing and we actually get more of Oswald comparing the two by similar character traits and expressions, when it comes to looks it's literally just 'oh he looks like her' no specifics. I know characters have said he looks exactly like her but I'm guessing he just overall looks similar otherwise we'd see more specifics, eye and face shape, nose and that kind of stuff mentioned. Also Felix doesn't see a resemblance between himself and Ortensia which is pretty telling cause idk if you've ever met someone that is just you but a different gender, it can be very uncanny valley.

We don't have much description on Nora then her clearly being Felix' sister though I'm guessing they have different facial features. I'm the oldest of 3, it is so clear that we are all siblings, the youngest and I have basically the same face and we got a lot of genes from our dad's side of the family. My middle sibling is the one that got a lot more of our mum's genes, they have a lot more oval and intense features compared to mine and the youngest round and soft ones. Nora also has lighter fur than Felix and is probably a grey or brown texudo compared to Felix' black fur and doesn't share Ortensia's character traits.

I know it's literally in the text but I really don't see Felix and Ortensia looking that similar even when artists give Ortensia Felix' cheek fluff thing.

Looking at their original designs and even in Rouge's style they just never looked like identical twins to me, just like they could be related like siblings or cousins. She clearly looks like a short-hair while Felix looks like he would be classified as a medium-hair. Felix' eyes are large and round while Ortensia's very vertically oval, Felix' nose is smaller and more oval while Ortensia's is larger and very round. OMG THEIR FACIAL FEATURES ARE INVERTED. That's so cool, anyway back to what I was saying. They do have the same face shape and their ears are very similar though I'm not sure if Ortensia has a long tail or not in inky mystery, most of the official Disney content features Ortensia without a tail implying at least to me she's a bobtail. Don't know why Disney tends to forget about her tail but never Oswald's.
